26、 Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Naurus heartbreaking story could have one good consequence other countries might learn from its mistakes. For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived on the remote island of Nauru, far from weste

27、rn civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island. However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. The whaling ships and other traders began

28、 to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900. Naurus real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate (磷酸盐)on the

29、 island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which is a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate. A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine. When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer of soil. Then

30、 it takes away the material it wants. Strip mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon. In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate. U

31、nfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had not

32、hing. By 2000, Nauru was financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen. 56. What might be the authors purpose in writing the text?_.A. To seek help for Naurus problems.B. To give a warning to

33、 other countriesC. To show the importance of moneyD. To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.57. What was Nauru like before the Europeans came? _.A. Rich and powerful B. Modern and openC. Peaceful and attractive D. Greedy and aggressive58. The ecological disaster in Nauru resulted from _. A. soil pol

34、lutionB. phosphate overminingC. farming activityD. whale hunting 59. Which of the following was a cause of Naurus financial problem? _.A. Its leaders misused the moneyB. It spent too much repairing the island C. Its phosphate mining cost much moneyD. It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.60.

35、What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?_ _.A. The phosphate mines were destroyed B. The ecological damage is difficult to repair. C. The island was abandoned by the Nauruans D. The leaders will take the experts words seriously. BThe booking notes of the play “the Age of Innocence”:Pri

44、people would have lost their lives without the contribution of African-American inventor Dr Charles Drew. Charles Drew was born on June 3, 1904, in Washington, DC. His early interest was in education, but he was also an outstanding athlete. While in college, he was awarded as the man who contributed

45、 the most to sports during his four years in school. Drews sister Elsie suffered from tuberculosis(肺结核) and died in 1920. Her death influenced his decision to study medicine.After becoming a doctor and working as a college instructor, Drew went to Columbia University, where he earned his Doctor of M

46、edical Science degree. During this time he became involved in research on blood and blood transfusions. At Columbia, he wrote a paper on “banked blood”, in which he described a technique he developed for the long-term preservation of blood plasma. Before his discovery, blood could not be stored for

47、more than two days because of the rapid breakdown of red blood cells. Drew had discovered that by separating the plasma from the whole blood and then refrigerating them separately, they could be combined a week later for a blood transfusion. Drew became the first African American to receive a PhD in

48、 medical science. After World War II broke out, Drew was called upon to put his techniques into practice. He was named a project director for the American Red Cross but soon quit his post after the government issued an order that blood taken from white donors should be separated from that of black d

49、onors. On April 1, 1950, after he attended the annual free clinic at the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital, he and other three physicians decided to drive back home. As he was tired from spending the night before in the operating room, he lost control of his car. Drew was badly injured and was taken

50、to Alamance General Hospital in Burlington, North Carolina. He was pronounced dead half an hour after he first received medical attention. Drew's funeral was held on April 5, 1950, at the Nineteenth Street Baptist Church in Washington, DC.But contrary to popular thought, he was not refused a blo

51、od transfusion by an all-white hospital. He indeed received a transfusion but was beyond the help of the doctors attending to him. As Dr. John Ford, one of the doctors who survived the accident, later explained, “We all received the very best of care. The fact that he was a Black did not in any way

52、limit the care that was given to him.” Over the years, Drew has been considered one of the most honored figures in the medical field.66. According to the passage, _ might have contributed to the invention of blood banks. A. the combination of blood cells B. the rapid breakdown of red blood cellsC. t

53、he development of refrigerating techniqueD. the technique of separating plasma from the whole blood67. By saying “contrary to the popular thought” in the last paragraph, the writer _. A. cant understand the doctors decision B. indicates his concern about the popular thoughtC. feels disappointed with

54、 the all-white hospitalD. means what the doctors did was out of expectation68.We can learn from the passage that Dr Charles Drew is best remembered by people as _. .A. an outstanding athleteB. a college instructor C. a medical researcherD. a project director 69.
