　　He was once referred to as the Picasso of poetry. Beloved by Chileans of all classes, he is one of the most widely read and respected poets in history. And this year is the 100th birthday of Pablo Neruda(1904—1973)．

　　Born with the name Neftali Ricardo Reyes Basolto, he was a tall, shy and lonely boy. He loved to read and started to write poetry when he was ten. The American poet Walt Whitman, whose framed picture Neruda later kept on his table, became a major influence on his work.

　　However, his father did not like the idea of having a poet for a son and tried to discourage him from writing. To cover up（掩饰） the publication of his first poem, he took the pen name Pablo Neruda.

　　In 1924 Neruda gained fame with his most widely read work “Twenty Love Poems and a Song of Despair”. Yet his rich experience as a diplomat and exile(流亡) made him go beyond the theme of love. His work also reflected the political struggle of the left and development of South America. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1971.

　　Neruda loved the sea which he saw as creative, destructive and forever moving. He found inspiration in the power and freedom of the waves and the seabirds on the coast. “I need the sea because it teaches me，” he wrote. “I move in the university of the waves.” He loved how the sea forever renewed itself, a renewal echoed in his work.

　　21.The underlined word “Picasso”can probably be replaced by“________”．

　　A．most important person

　　B．famous person from Picasso

　　More and more birds are flying to settle at Qinghai Lake, one of the highest inland lakes in China, thanks to the protection efforts of local governments. Covering an area of over 4,000 square kilometers. Qinghai Lake is also the country's biggest salt­water lake.

　　Located in Northwest China's Qinghai Province, the lake is famous for the two islands at its northwest point—Cormorant Island and Egg Island.

　　The two islands have plenty of floating grass and various schools of fish, offering rich food sources for birds. The islands have become a paradise for different kinds of groups of birds and have been called“Bird Islands”．

　　Each March and April, when ice and snow covering the Qinghai­Tibet Plateau starts to melt, over 20 kinds of birds fly to the Bird Islands to lay eggs.

　　During the months, flocks of birds cover the whole sky over the islands and birds eggs can be found everywhere. Visitors can hear the singing of birds from miles away. These have become a world famous symbol of the lake.

　　To protect this paradise for birds and support calls for ecological protection, China set up the Qinghai Lake Natural Protection Zone at the end of 1997.

　　Meanwhile, the State has pointed out the Bird Islands and Spring bay of the Qinghai Lake as central protection zones.

　　Inspection officials and management employees often patrol the lake, improving local residents' knowledge of related laws and spreading knowledge about animal protection to visitors. They are making great efforts to call on people to love and protect the birds.

　　At the same time, they have built special fences around the island area, to prevent wolves, foxes and other carnivorous animals, as well as illegal hunters from breaking up the birds' nest­building, egg­laying and breeding. As a result, more and more birds are coming to the islands for sheltering and breeding.

　　25. Why are more and more birds coming to the biggest salt­water lake in the Great Northwest?

　　A．Because it is getting warmer and warmer.

　　B．Because it is being reformed

　　C．Because environments there are getting more and more agreeable for them to live in.

　　D．Because the people there are becoming richer and richer

　　26. The birds feed on________ according to the passage.

　　A．floating fish and various grass

　　B．grass moving on the water surface and different kinds of fish

　　D．corn from the local farmers

　　27. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A．The ice and snow covering the Qinghai­Tibet Plateau doesn't

　　change into water, unless more than 20 kinds of birds come to the Bird Islands.

　　B．Flocks of birds fly up to the whole sky over islands to lay eggs.

　　C．Visitors can listen to the singing of birds from miles away, but they couldn't see any of the birds.

　　D．“The ice on the Plateau begins to change into water” means spring is coming.

　　28. The officials go around the lake mainly to________.

　　A．let the farmers there know the animal protection law

　　B．tell the farmers there some knowledge about animal protection

　　C．call on people to love and protect the birds

　　D．all of the above

　　There is no doubt that watching television and movies can influence the way that people behave. Moreover, it seems that people are spending more and more time watching some sort of visual entertainment, whether it is television, a video tape or a DVD. Therefore, the effects of the visual media cannot be ignored.

　　One obvious effect of these media is that watching them induces (诱导)people to buy certain products. Television advertising is widespread and,nowadays,even movie theaters permit advertisements. Another way TV and the movies affect people is that they give people either a broader view of the world or a distorted(扭曲) one, depending on what type of program they watch. Those who watch news and educational programs can learn many new things while those who watch primarily entertainment show may come to believe that most people in the world have great wealth and good looks. It may make them become dissatisfied with their own lives. Finally, perhaps the most susceptible (易受影响)viewers are children, who may be unable to tell fact from fiction and may try to copy acts that they see on TV or in the movies.

　　With the ever-increasing popularity of video entertainment, society must pay attention to these effects. Television and movies, while entertaining and informative, can not take the place of real experiences.

　　29. From the passage, we know that watching television and movies can ______.

　　A. make people live better

　　B. make people feel pleased

　　C. make people change their way of life

　　D. make people live worse

　　30. The writer holds the view that ________

　　A. people may take no notice of the effects of the visual media

　　B. people must pay attention to the effects of the visual media

　　C. the effects of the visual media make the world changed greatly

　　D. the visual media only affect young people

　　31. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

　　A. Those who watch news and educational programs can earn a lot of money and become very pretty

　　B. The reason why most people possess great wealth and good looks is that they often watch television advertising.

　　C. People buy products only when they are induced by television advertising

　　D. People who watch primarily entertainment show may come to believe that most people in the world are rich and beautiful.

　　32. What would be the best title for this text?

　　A. The Influence of Television and Movies.

　　B. The Reason Why People Watch Television and Movies.

　　C. Television and Movies Induce People.

　　D. The Importance of Television and Movies.

　　D

　　Parents whose children show a special interest in a sport feel very difficult to make a decision about their children’s careers. Should they allow their children to train to become top sportsmen and sportswomen? For many children it means starting schoolwork very young. And going out with friends and other interests have to take a second place. It’s very difficult to explain to a young child why he or she has to train five hours a day, even at the weekend, when most of his or her friends are playing.

　　Another problem is of course money, In many countries money for training is available from government for the very best young sportsmen and sportswomen. If this help can not be given, it means that it is the parents who have to find the time and the money to support their child’s development and sports clothes, transport to competitions, special equipment, etc. All can be expensive.

　　Many parents are worried that it is dangerous to start serious training in a sport at an early age. Some doctors agree that young muscles may be damaged by training before they are properly developed. Professional trainers, however, believe that it is only by training when young that you can reach the top as successful sports person. It is clear that very few people do reach the top, and both parents and children should be prepared for failure even after many years of training.

　　33. Where can we most probably find this passage?

　　A. An advertisement.

　　B. A diary.

　　C. A newspaper.

　　D.A notice board.

　　34. What does the underlined phrase “to take a second place ”in the first paragraph mean?

　　A. to become less important

　　B. To put it at another place

　　C. To happen again

　　D. They are the most important of all the things

　　35. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?

　　A. It’s easy to make a decision when your children want to take up sports.

　　B. Most of the students may become top sports men after a long period of training.

　　C. Early training may damage young muscles.

　　D. It’s not very expensive for parents to support their children’s development in sports.
