Ⅱ.阅读理解
For millions of years, sharks have been the kings of the oceans, the top of the food chain. But these days, the hunter has become the hunted, because of better methods from commercial fishermen who are looking for fins(鱼鳍)to make expensive soup sold mostly in Asia. Shark fins are far more valuable than shark meat, so fishermen cut the fins off live fish and throw the sharks overboard to maximize the catch they bring back.
Shark finning is illegal in the United States, but there’re tournament sport fishermen, who target and kill the biggest ones they take from the sea. These tournaments, the prizes of which can reach $5 000 or more, attract large crowds of anglers but also draw protests from animal rights groups and environmentalists.
The competitors say they are enjoying a fun and legal sport, the impact on the overall shark population is very small, and most of the sharks caught are returned to the ocean. Dave Johnson, who is from Kennebunkport, Maine, said no one ever comes close to the limit set by the government of killing one shark per day during the three month season.
“I enjoy watching these animals, but I also enjoy catching and releasing(释放)them, and very rarely killing them and eating them,”he said. “If I thought killing one shark was endangering(危及)the species and contributing to their decline I’d stop doing it tomorrow.”
That is exactly what marine biologists like Luke Tipple want to happen. “I believe that they should just stop it. In fact, we don’t need to be targeting, in any way, any of these threatened populations,” he said. Up to 73 million sharks are killed annually, and many species are at risk of extinction(灭绝).
1. Fishermen throw the sharks back into the sea after catching them to ________.
A. drop useless shark meat
B. let them grow new fins
C. avoid law punishment
D. make higher profits
2. The undertined word“anglers”in Paragraph 2 refers to ________.
A. angry animal activists
B. tournament organizers
C. commercial fishermen
D. lovers of shark fishing
3. Johnson’s words suggest that ________.
A. he opposes killing sharks
B. he will soon quit the hobby
C. he believes sharks are endangered
D. he feels his behavior is of little harm
4. In Tipple’s opinion, ________.
A. no shark should be caught or killed
B. the tournaments should target common species
C. sport fishermen should release sharks in time
D. more strict limits should be set by the government
答案与解析

In Psychology Today, writer Carlin Flora suggests that America’s fascination with celebrity is a symptom of a larger cultural obsession with the three A’s-affluence(富有), attractiveness and achievement. Celebrities seem to represent all of these.
Affluence, attractiveness and achievement are understandably desirable, and certainly not harmful,but fixation on these can sometimes divert individuals, especially young people, from other values, such as community, charity and dommitment.
If you want your children to grow up with an understanding that looks aren’t everything, that we can’t buy happiness, and that we are more than the sum of our achievements and failures, then they will need critical thinking skills. Educators and psychologists say these skills will help children deconstruct the mixed messages they get from celebrity-crazed media.
Here are some tips to help parents to teach critical thinking to their kids.
Resist putting a television and computer in your children’s room. This allows them to watch without care. It is better for you to know what they’re watching; that way you can discuss the programs.
Encourage your children to think about their favorite shows and media personalities. Why do they like them? Do they reflect the values of their family, school, community or church? Speculate about the real lives of some of the celebrities they love. Would they really want to be like Paris Hilton or Jessica Simpson?
Ask your children to talk about the kinds of things they like best about the people they know, including their own friends, family members, teachers and coaches. Is it that they’re famous and rich and pretty? Or is it that they’re funny, helpful, caring, friendly and smart?
Encourage kids to be skeptical. Get them to ask questions such as “Is the only reason I’m interested in that person on TV is because he is on TV?”
Stay current with the programs, music and video games your kids are consuming. It’s the only way you’ll be able to have intelligent and informed discussions with them about the people and images they’re exposed to. It’s the only way you’ll know what they’re thinking, and the only way you can help them think more critically.
5. The main purpose of the text is to ________.
A. explain why children are addicted to celebrity culture
B. advise how to guide children through celebrity culture
C. tell us what attitude children should have towards celebrities
D. explain the importance of critical thinking skills
6. The author believes the fixation on the three A’s will _______.
A. direct children to right values
B. do harm to children completely
C. make children neglect other important values
D. make children form their own ideas ahout celebrities
7. Children are asked to talk about the kinds of things they like best about the people they know so that they can ________.
A. realize only common people can be happy
B. see who is more helpful to them
C. realize celebrities are common people too
D. find good qualities in common people
8. Which of the following can help your children think more critically?
A. Let them focus on studying.
B. Have a discussion with them about their schoollife.
C. Ask them to think about the real reasons why they like the celebrities.
D. Let them compare the people around with themselves.

根据短文内容,从短文后的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。
Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. Jeff is doing it by sneaking answers to a test, but it’s also cheating to break the rules of a game or contest or to pretend something is yours when it isn’t.
9
It’s tempting to cheat because it makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material.
10
11
They can watch TV instead of studying for the spelling test. But other people lose respect for cheaters and think less of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating,they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending the time studying.
12
Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions together.
13
A. Kids cheat for various reasons.
B. Sometimes it may seem like cheaters have it all figured out.
C. It also won’t help on the next test — unless the person cheats again.
D. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.
E. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people.
F. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating.
G. If they are a little more diligent and work a little harder, they will do better.
