has been hit,from time to time,by tsunamis（海啸）,which are caused by earthquakes or underwater volcanoes.The story of the boy Yuuki is the story of such a disaster.Yuuki lived with his family in a seaside village,below a small mountain.One day,as he played on top of the mountain,Yuuki felt a small earthquake but it was not strong enough to frighten anybody.Soon after,however,Yuuki noticed the sea darken and begin running away from the shore very fast,leaving behind wide areas of beach that had never been seen before.Yuuki remembered reading that just before a terrible tsunami,the sea suddenly and quickly rolls backward.He ran to the beach,warning the villagers who had gathered to admire the new beach land.But no one listened.They laughed at him and continued playing in the new sand.Desperate,Yuuki could think of only one thing to do.He lit a tree branch,raced to the rice fields and began burning the harvested rice.Then he called out,“Fire!Fire!Everyone run to the mountain!Now!”When everyone reached the mountain top,a villager cried out,“Yuuki is mad!I saw him set the fire.”Yuuki hung his head in shame,but said nothing as the villagers screamed at him.Just then,someone shouted,“Look!”In the distance a huge dark wave of water was speeding towards the shore.When it hit the shore,it destroyed everything.On the mountain everyone stared at the village ruins in terror.“Im sorry I burned the fields,”said Yuuki,his voice trembling.“Yuuki,”the village chief answered.“You saved us all.”The villagers cheered and raised Yuuki into the air.“We were going to celebrate our rice harvest tonight,”said one,“but now well celebrate that were all still alive!”56.Where was Yuuki when the earthquake struck?A.On the beach.B.On the mountain.C.In the rice fields.D.At home.57.In what order did the following events take place?a.Yuuki ran to the rice fields.b.The villagers paid no attention to Yuukis word.c.Yuuki went to warn the villagers.d.The village was in ruins e.The people were screaming at Yuuki.A.c,b,d,a,e B.a,c,d,b,e C.c,b,a,e,d D.a,c,d,e,b 58.How did Yuuki save the villagers from the disaster?A.He told them about the earthquake.B.He explained why the sea was flowing out.C.He told the village chief to warn the people.D.He set fire to the rice field.59.What were the people planning to do before the tsunami struck their village?A.Burn the rice crop.B.Play on the beach.C.Climb the mountain.D.Celebrate the rice harvest.B Fishing is a popular activity and every fisherman knows the rule:Keep the big ones,throw the smaller ones back.The idea behind it is simple larger fish are probably older.If you keep the smaller young fish,they wont be able to reproduce,so there will be fewer fish.But fishing out the largest fish from a population may also have an unwanted effect:Over time,fewer adult fish get really big.If only the smaller fish reproduce,then future generations become smaller.One scientist,Dr David Conover has spent the last decade studying the effects of the“keep the big ones”rule.In his experiment,Conover used six groups of fish.For two groups,Conover followed the“keep the big ones”rule and took out the biggest fish.For two other groups,he removed only the small fish.For the last two groups,he removed fish at random(随意地).After five years,he measured the fish in each group.In the two groups where the largest fish were regularly removed,the average fish size was smaller than the average size in the other groups.It showed that if only small fish survive to reproduce,then future generations of fish will also tend to be small.For the second five years of his experiment,Conover changed the rules and took fish randomly from each group.At the end of the experiment,he found that the fish that were in the“keep the big ones”groups for the first five years had started to get larger again,although he calculated it would take at least 12 years for the fish in those two groups to return to their original size.In other words,it takes much more time to recover.60.The underlined word“it”(Paragraph 1)refers to“_”.A.the activity B.the fish C.the rule D.the fisherman 61.Whats the purpose of the“keep the big ones”rule?A.It helps to protect fish numbers.B.It helps to protect fish size.C.It teaches people how to fish.D.It helps people catch bigger fish.62.After the first five years of his experiment,Conover found the“keep the big ones”rule _.A.made no difference to fish size B.made the fish smaller on average C.made the fish bigger on average D.made the fish reproduce more quickly 63.What is the authors intention in writing this article?A.To encourage people to stop fishing.B.To urge governments to forbid fishing.C.To describe a scientific experiment about fishing.D.To introduce the rules of fishing to readers.C With only fish and birds for company,Eric Erden has been rowing across the Pacific Ocean to Australia in his 23-foot-long boat since he left on July 10,2009.This is the first part of Erics trip around the world using only his own energy.He will row,bike,and walk without help from any motors at all.His plan includes climbing the tallest mountain on each of the six continents he visits,to honour the memory of a fellow climber.He says he is doing this to show kids that they can achieve any goal,but he also hopes to have some great adventures along the way.Storms and huge waves regularly force him in the wrong direction and even threaten to overturn his boat.“Sometimes I really feel scared,”says a somewhat embarrassed Eric.“But thats part of the journey.I knew this wouldnt be easy when I started.”Protein bars give him energy,and he boils water to heat freeze-dried meals on a one-burner stove.A sun-powered machine removes salt from ocean water so he can drink it,but when that fails he sometimes tries to collect rainwater in a bucket.Hes not bothered by any of the hardships.Eric sees the world as a laboratory where there is much to learn.And when his trip around the world takes him across land,he enjoys meeting people especially children.He has already visited several schools and shared his story.64.Why is Eric making this trip?A.To encourage children to reach for their goal.B.To learn to overcome various hardships.C.To do experiments all over the world.D.To honour the memory of a fellow climber.65.What does Eric plan to do on each of the six continents he will visit?A.Visit schools to share his story.B.Study the culture of the local people.C.Climb the tallest mountain.D.Cycle from one end to the other.66.How does Eric mainly get drinking water?A.He boils the seawater on a stove.B.He has brought fresh water with him.C.He collects rain water in a bucket.D.He uses a special machine to make seawater fresh.67.Which of the following words best describes Erics character?A.Determined.B.Intelligent.C.Fearless.D.Lonely.D“I had a test and didnt want to do it,so I pretended to be ill”,says 13-year-old Mary.But Mary did not enjoy her day off.“It was boring.I wished I had gone to school.”Marys story is not unusual in.According to the latest government figures,pupil absences are rising,despite schools taking a hard line on truancy(逃学).Dr Philip James from thinks she knows why:“As schools make more efforts to find and punish missing students,students find better ways to avoid being caught.”For several years,James has researched teenager truancy and discovered that most truancy was“a response to factors within the school”.Students that skip school are not necessarily less advanced or less intelligent.They complained of teachers who failed to engage them,and of“boring”lessons.“Many of them really enjoy school and believe in education,but drop out when aspects of it are ineffective.”James says.The views of students like Adam,who believes that skipping lessons has little impact on his schooling,are common.“I only take off for a lesson,or a couple of days.It doesnt affect my education,”he told James.James believes that schools need to address the question o
