The camel ! The camel is well known for something else, too．It can cross an entire desert without a single drink of water．Its body is built in a special way to help it store water and food．A person has just one stomach, but a camel has quite a few．Within each stomach are layers and layers of cells．These cells are like tiny water balloons, storing liquids until the camel needs them．When the camel drinks, the cells grow larger and larger．For a whole week, they can keep the animal's thirst away by sending water to all parts of its body．And did you ever wonder why the camel has a hump? The hump is a storage place for fat．Because it has this storage area, the camel does not need to eat very often．When the animal needs energy, the layers of fat serve as fuel to keep it going on the long, hot days in the burning sun．The camel has one other gift that makes it well suited to arid regions．This gift is its amazing nose．A camel can smell a water hole from miles away!When a camel moves it sways from side to side like a ship on a wavy ocean．Because of this swaying motion, the camel has been called the "Ship of the Desert．"
The camel's hump is a storage place for________A．musclesB．extra waterC．body sugarsD．fat

40、回答40-59题Japan's 24-hour convenience stores, already struggling with lagging sales and growth, may soon face yet another threat--moves to limit business hours and close the stores late at night．The prefecture of Saitama, which borders Tokyo, may follow in the footsteps of the western city of Kyoto and urge convenience stores to close during late night hours in an effort to limit carbon dioxide emissions．Kyoto, a former capital, wants to persuade convenience and other 24-hour stores to close late at night so as to improve evening views of the city and cut down on energy use．The Nikkei said closures could last from 11 p.m．to 7 a.m．The move is strongly opposed by the industry, which fears a withering impact on an already troubled sector also grappling with the specter of a higher tobacco tax, which could hit overall sales．"Even if we only operate the stores for 16 hours, we can't stop the refrigerators," said Toshiro Yamaguchi, the president of Seven-Eleven Japan Co．He said such cuts in operating hours would reduce each store's profit by 20 percent．"If this happens, our current business model will lose its foundation．"Analysts said that while it is difficult to estimate the potential impact of the move without a concrete plan, their overall impression was that it was likely to he negative．"This could cut profits and lead to less efficient operations and the increased loss of opportunities," said Masafumi Shoda, an analyst．" But h depends on the store--urban stores do better than others．There are some in the countryside that are inefficient．"
Which Japanese city was the first to try to limit conventience store hours?A．Saitama．B．Tokyo．C．Kyoto．D．Nagoya．
41、What's the main goal behind the proposal?A．To give employees more free time．B．To limit carbon dioxide emissions．C．To sell more tobacco products．D．To increase each store's profit．
42、 How's the convenience store sector doing in Japan?A．The article doesn't say．B．It's doing great．C．Not very well．D．Cannot see clearly．

44、回答44-63题Years ago, a cigarette commercial asked if you were smoking more, but enjoying it less．That describes the way many of us live today．We are doing more, but enjoying it less．And when that doesn't work, we compound the problem．In our frantic search for satisfaction, we try stuffing still more into our days, never realizing that we are taking the wrong approach．The truth is simple; so simple it is hard to believe．Satisfaction lies with less, not with more．Yet, we pursue the myth that this thing, or that activity, will somehow provide the satisfaction we so desperately seek．Arthur Lindman, in his devastating book, The Harried Leisure Class, described the futility of pursuing more．His research focused on what people did with their leisure time．He found that as income rose, people bought more things to occupy their leisure time．But, ironically, the more things they bought, the less they valued any one of them．Carried to an extreme, he predicted massive boredom in the midst of tremendous variety．That was more than twenty years ago, and his prediction seems more accurate every year．Lindman of course, is not the first to discover this．The writer of Ecclesiastes expressed the same thought thousands of years ago．It is better, he wrote, to have less, but enjoy it more．If you would like to enjoy life more, I challenge you to experiment with me．How could you simplify your life? What could you drop? What could you do without? What could you stop pursuing? What few things could you concentrate on?The more I learn, the more I realize that fullness of life does not depend on things．The more I give up, the more I seem to gain．But words will never convince you．You must try it for yourself．
Arthur Lindman wrote________A．a novelB．The Harried Leisure ClassC．EcclesiastesD．an article on smoke
45、 Lindman wrote his book________A．ten years agoB．twenty years agoC．more than twenty years agoD．less than ten year ago46、 Based on the passage, we can make our life happier if we________A．get rid of useless thingsB．buy more thingsC．sell things we do not needD．send things to our friends
47、 Based on the passage, simplifying our life is________A．nonsenseB．our dutyC．a good piece of adviceD．unrealistic
48、 回答48-67题There are no inevitable outcomes of social class in child rearing．At the same time, there is no question that social class is important factor in how children are raised and the kind of adults that children become．Regarding social class, sociologists have found that parents socialize their children into the behaviors and norms of their work worlds．Members of the working class are closely supervised and are expected to follow explicit rules at their jobs．If they do not follow the precise rules and do as they are told, they will not keep their jobs． Their experience influences how they deal with their children．As a result, their concern is less with their children's motivations and more with their children's outward conformity．Thus they are more apt to use physical punishment in managing their children．On the other hand, middle-class parents, who are expected to take more initiative on the job, are more concerned that their children develop curiosity, self-expression, and self-control．They are also more likely to withdraw privileges or affection than to use physical punishment．
The word "explicit" means________A．vagueB．difficultC．confusingD．clearly defined
49、 According to this passage, working-class parents are more likely than middle-class parents to________A．use physical punishment for disciplineB．have children who finish collegeC．have children who are out of controlD．show less love to their children

51、 This passage is about________A．the relation between social class of the parents and their children's rearingB．the similarities between working class and middle class parentsC．the differences between children of working class and the ones of middle classD．the relation between working class and middle class in their working places
52、 回答52-71题It takes a long time to grow a tree．How long? Well, pine trees are the quickest growing trees, but still, they take twenty years to reach a size suitable for cutting and harvesting．An oak takes about sixty years to grow to a good size．A redwood may take hundreds of years．Lumber companies, which make their money on trees, depend on those that grow quickly．Therefore, they are always looking for methods to make trees grow faster．So far, the secret to fast growing trees seems to lie in " super-seeds．" These are seeds that are gathered from the quickest growing trees in a forest．One company searched 100,000 acres of trees and selected the seeds from just fifteen trees．These two ounces of seed were enough to plant several hundred new trees．Eventually, when these trees have grown, seeds will again be taken only from the fastest growing trees of crop．This process of artificial selection will yield, in the future, a super-tree that will grow in half the time it takes normal trees to develop．Unfortunately, it takes a long time for a plan like this to reach its goal．The Weyerhauser LumberCorporation, which started its first collection of seed in 1958, is just now beginning to harvest thesuper-seeds of the first generation of the faster growing trees．
This selection centers on________A．the life span of treesB．the age of redwoodsC．making trees grow quicklyD．cutting trees for lumber
53、 Trees that grow faster are developed by________A．planting many trees and fertilizing themB．collecting seeds from strong, slow growing treesC．selecting the seeds of the fastest growing treesD．feeding them high-energy plant foods
54、Super-trees________A．will be a great benefit to lumber companiesB．make extra-good lumber for buildingsC．will probably be weak because of their fast growthD．may be defenseless to many insects and diseases
55、The word "therefore" in paragraph 2 indicates that a________A．speech is beginningB．conclusion followsC．comparison is being madeD．metaphor is being used五、补全对话56、回答56-60题A．I preferB．that's OKC．I'd love toD．What do you likeE．Would you like to goF．That sounds fineG．cannot workH．have to work lateDave: I have tickets to The Phantom of the Opera on Friday night.56 ?Susan: Thanks.57What time is the show?Dave: It's at 8:00．Susan: That sounds great．So, do you want to have dinner at 6:00?Dave: Uh, I'd like to, but I 58Susan: Oh, 59Let's just meet at the theater before the show, around 7:30．Dave : 60
