BThe manager.CThe woman. DThe authors mother.53When the manager scolded him，the author _.Awas frightened and criedBfelt the manager was rightCdid not say anythingDtried to explain54It can be inferred that the author _.Aregrets arguing with the manager for what he didnt doBhas forgiven the manager for what he did to him fifteen years agoCwould like to tell people never to be fooled by an egg saleDexpects the woman to say sorry to him for the mistake she madeBRachel Carson，a wellknown nature author in America，was happiest writing about the strength and stability of natural systems.Her books mainly described the inter connectedness of nature and all living things.Completing Silent Spring took Carson four years.First published in The New Yorker in June 1962，the book alarmed readers across America.It described how DDT entered the food chain and accumulated (堆积) in the fatty tissues of animals，including human beings，and caused cancer and genetic damage.Carson begins by describing exactly these effects in the first chapter，creating strong images and drawing the readers in.As the book continues，she gives various examples of how insecticides(杀虫剂) are not only unsuccessful，but actually very costly and damaging.She also explains about the biological controls which are less expensive and much more efficient.A single application on a crop，she wrote，killed insects for weeks and months，and not only the targeted insects but countless more，and remained poisonous in the environment even after it was washed out by rainwater.Carson concluded that DDT and other pesticides had definitely harmed birds and animals and had destroyed the entire worlds food supply.The books most famous chapter，A Fable for Tomorrow，described a nameless American town where all lifefrom fish to birds to apple blossoms to human childrenhad been “silenced” by the harmful effects of DDT.The most important effect of Silent Spring，though，was a new public awareness that nature was so easily destroyed by human intervention(干预)Rachel Carson had made a brave proposal：that，at times，technological progress is so basically at odds with(与不一致) natural processes that it must be prevented.55What are Rachel Carsons books mainly concerned about?AThe relationship between man and nature.BThe balance of natural systems.CThe interconnection of nature and living things.DThe pollution of the environment.56According to the text，Silent Spring_.Adidnt draw the readers attention when first publishedBmainly describes peoples quiet lives in an American townCeffectively tells people how to keep the balance of natureDshowed the harmful effects of DDT on nature57Rachel Carson thinks that the more efficient way to kill insects is to use _.ADDTBhuman controlsCbiological controls Dtechnical progress58The publication of Silent Spring makes people _.Aunderstand the authors outstanding writing talentBrealize the importance of technical progressCaware of the necessity of environmental protectionDrethink the harmful effects of developing industryCOutside her shabby cottage，old Mrs.Tailor was hanging out laundry on a wire line，unaware that some children lay hidden in the leaves of a nearby tree watching her every move.They were determined to find out if she really was a witch.They watched as she took a broomstick to clean the dirt from her stone steps.But，much to their disappointment，she did not mount the broomstick and take flight.Suddenly，the old ladys work was interrupted by the cackling of her hena signal that an egg had been laid in the warm nest on top of the haystack.The old broomstick was put aside as she hobbled off towards the haystack followed by Sooty，a black cat she had rescued from a fox trap some time back.With only three legs，it was hard for Sooty to keep up with the old lady.The cat provided proof the children were sure that only a witch would own a black cat with three legs.There，standing on a wooden box，was Mrs.Tailor，stretching out to gather her precious egg.Taking the egg in one of her hands，she began to climb down when，without warning，the box broke and the old lady fell.“We have to go and help her，”whispered Amy.“What if it is a trick？” replied Ben.“Dont be silly，Ben.If she were a witch，she would have turned us into frogs already，” reasoned Meg.“Come on Amy，lets go.”The girls climbed down the tree and ran all the way to the haystack.Approaching carefully，they could see a wound on the old ladys face.She had knocked her head on a stone and her ankle was definitely broken.“Go and get Dad，” Amy yelled to her brother.“Tell him about the accident.”The boys did not need another excuse to leave.They ran as fast as they could for help，hoping that Mrs.Tailor would not wake and turn the girls into frogs.59Why were the children hiding in the tree?AThey wanted to watch Mrs.Tailor do her housework closely.BThey were playing a hideandseek game.CThey wanted to find out if the rumors about Mrs.Tailor were true.DThey were pretending to be spies.60Mrs.Tailor stopped sweeping when_.Aher front steps were cleanBshe noticed the children in the treeCshe was ready to take a flightDshe heard the hen cackling61Ben did not rush to help Mrs.Tailor because_.Ahe thought that she could be tricking themBhe knew that they should not have been in the treeChe did not see the old lady fall downDhe was afraid of the threelegged cat62Which of these old sayings best suits the storys lesson for us?AMake hay while the sun shines.BNever judge a book by its cover.CPeople in glasshouses should not throw stones.DA bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.DLast fall，beekeepers from states with warm climates began to report a sudden loss of honey bees.Losses were reported in twentyfour states and spread to Canada.Today，some beekeepers say thirty percent to ninety percent of their honey bees are gone.Food price could go up as a result.And some beekeeping businesses have failed.Many kinds of plants，trees and grasses need bees to pollinate them.Bees gather nectar from flowers during this process.The liquid gives them food and material to make honey.As the bees land on flowers，their bodies pick up and drop off particles of pollen(花粉)Most flowering plants need pollination to reproduce.Honey bees can die during the winter.But few dead bees have been found this time.Instead，the bees seem to have disappeared.Experts call the condition “colony collapse disorder”Agriculture Department official Caird Rexroad said the colony collapse disorder threatens about fifteen billion dollars worth of the countrys farm economy.Mr.Rexroad commented at a hearing of a House of Representatives agriculture subcommittee.Mr.Rexroad said the cause of the sudden loss of bees was not clear.The number of honey bees had already fallen before the colony collapse disorder began.Experts say the varroa mite is at least partly responsible for the earlier decrease in honey bees.The mite is a tiny creature that feeds on honey bees.It may play a part in colony collapse disorder by carrying bee viruses.Or the problem may be caused by other disease and weather conditions.Diana CoxFoster of Pennsylvania State University is part of the scientific group.Ms.CoxFoster says the nation needs honey bees that can defend themselves better against disease and insects.The recent mapping of most of the honey bees genes offers the hope of a stronger honey bee some day.63Some people have failed in beekeeping businesses because _.Athey want to make more money by doing something elseBthe climates were too warm to raise bees last fallCtoo many bees have disappeared for no reasonDmore and more people are beginning to raise bees64Which of the following statements is TRUE according to this passage?AIt is normal that some bees die in the cold season.BThe plants cant live without bees at all.CMany bees have died because of the bad weather.DResearchers have found the reason of the death of bees.65The passage is mainly to tell us that _.Athe honey bees are important to plants，trees and grassesBmany Americans are surprised at the loss of honey beesCstrong honey bees are in great need in AmericaDsomething has happened to
