14、ervously.       At last I arrived at Charlotte Street and found an available parking space. I moved the lorry into it only to notice three people at a pavement cafe waving to me. I got out, trembling violently, like one who had just finished a stormy

15、 Atlantic crossing. "You've hit the car parked behind you," they said. I examined the car. There were white scratches on its front face. It bore a disabled sign. So, now I was a bad driver and a bad man. Under the severe look of the three, I

16、 left an apologetic note on the damaged car's windscreen,giving my phone number.       I unloaded the furniture, dripping the sweat, wanting only to escape from the monster. I drove it back to its base at Edgware. On arrival, the boss told m

17、e I must fill it up with petrol before returning it. "Just charge me," I cried, still shaking with fear. He stared at me with understanding. No doubt he'd witnessed others in this state before. "How about I drive you to a petrol station, you fill

18、 up, and I drive it back? " he asked.       He danced the great lorry through the traffic so carefully that it would have shamed me if I had not been so grateful. （1）The man felt_ to have delivered the furniture himself.A. gratefulB. r

22、top sign. But what if you were swimming in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean? Could you still find your way home? A loggerhead turtle（海龟）could.       According to Dr. Ken Lohmann,loggerheads have a magnetic（磁力的）sense based on Earth's magnetic fiel

23、d. It helps them locate the best spots for finding food and their home beaches.       Scientists already know that several other animals,such as whales and honeybees,can detect（探测到）magnetic fields. The difference between them and loggerheads, however,

24、0;is the way they learn to use their magnetic sense. Young whales and honeybees can learn from adults. Loggerheads are abandoned as eggs.       As newborn loggerheads have no adults to learn from, what helps them figure out how to use their magnetic sense

25、?  Lohmann thinks one of the cues was light on the sea.       Baby loggerheads hatch only at night. However,a small amount of light reflects off the ocean. The light makes that region brighter. Heading toward the light helps them get quickly out

26、 to sea,where they can find food. Lohmann tested whether newborn loggerheads use this light source to set their magnetic "compasses"（罗盘）. He and his team put some newborns in a water tank and recorded which way they swam. Around the tank,the scientists created a magneti

27、c field that matched the Earth's. They set a weak light to the east of the magnetic field. Then they let the newborns go.       At first,the newborns swam toward the light. After the scientists turned off the light,the turtles that had seen the light

28、in the east always swam toward east. When the researchers reversed（颠倒）the magnetic field, these turtles turned around and swam toward the new "east".       This and the follow-up experiments all showed that loggerheads use light from the outside

29、 world to set their magnetic "compasses" and then remember the "correct" direction. If a turtle hatches on a brightly-lit beach, that would damage its magnetic sense forever and make survival hard for the turtle.       L

30、ohmann's work has led others to protect the habitat of this endangered species. Yet many questions about these creatures remain unanswered, and researchers have a lot to study. （1）Loggerheads and whales differ in the way they_.A. detect magnetic fieldsB. recognize landmarksC.

31、 learn to find directionsD. bring up their young （2）In the experiment,after the newborns' magnetic sense was set,their moving direction was determined by_.A. the lightB. other unknown factorsC. the magnetic fieldD. the light and the magnetic field （3）What is th

32、e significance of Lohmann's research work？_A. It enables researchers to keep track of turtles.B. It contributes to the studies of the magnetic field.C. It helps protect the loggerheads' living environment.D. It offers a new solution to environmental pollution. （4）Wha

34、is the time spent in the playground. It's a chance to be with friends,run around and have fun. However,at the Rudyard Kipling Primary School in Brighton, things were getting too hard,so the teachers decided something had to be done. The school's new rules,which restrict（限

35、制）physical activities and encourage pupils only to touch if they are playing friendlier games,have attracted a lot of attention.       Most people say that they are a bad restriction. Parents of children at the school,in Brighton,East Sussex,talked about the b

37、e know is important to them."       Some people say that Rudyard Kipling Primary School's decision is a good one because it makes the playground more fun for everyone. Not all children enjoy playing rough（剧烈的）games or sports at playtime. Friendlier ga

38、mes ensure everyone can join in. The teachers only have the pupils' best interests at heart,so they should be trusted to make the right decision. Besides,if someone gets hurt in the playground,that could distract（分心）the teachers from other accidents.      

39、 However, some people think it's an overreaction. Sometimes physical games can lead to injuries,but banning（禁止）such activities is unreasonable. In fact,it is only during physical games that you can build up your ability to recover quickly from falling over. Even if these

40、 physical activities aren't your favorite way to spend break time,it's difficult to see why they will be completely banned. Each pupil should be able to decide what they want to do. Besides,schools should be happy that their students want to exercise between classes as this will ke

41、ep them fit and healthy, and teachers should encourage this, not prevent it. （1）What was the result of the rule made by the Rudyard Kipling Primary School？_A. It was made into law.B. It was supported by parents.C. It encouraged students to do sports.D. It made the schoo

42、l widely discussed. （2）What does the underlined word "bizarre" in Paragraph 2 mean？_A. Simple.B. Strange.C. Important.D. Reasonable. （3）What is one reason why some people think the school made a wise decision？_A. It saves more lunchtime.B. 

43、It helps students pay more attention to their study.C. It brings more fun to every kid.D. It makes students more independent. （4）What is the main idea of the last paragraph？_A. Physical games can injure kids.B. Physical games are good for students health.C. Teachers should d

44、o sports with students.D. Restricting physical activities is unreasonable.第二节（共1小题；每小题10分， 共10分）根据短文内容， 从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。  When you go to a foreign country, you often enter a new culture. The differences between cultures may make you feel st
