Our boat floated on (漂流) ,between walls of forest too thick to allow us a view of the land we were passing【21】though we knew from the map that our river must from time to time be passing through chains of hills.【22】did we find a place where we could have landed. So we stayed in the boat hoping that we【23】the sea, a friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to the civilization.
We lived【24】fish, any fruit and nuts we could pick up out of the water. As we had no fire, we had to eat everything,【25】the raw fish. I had never tasted raw fish before, and I must say I did not much enjoy the【26】: perhaps sea-fish which do not live in the mud are less tasteless. As for water, there was a choice: we could drink muddy river water,【27】die of thirst. We drank the water. Men who have just escaped what had appeared to be certain death lose all worries about such small things as diseases caused by dirty water. In fact, none of us suffered from any illness【28】.
One day we passed another village, but fortunately nobody saw us. We did not wish to risk【29】prisoners a second time; we might not be so lucky【30】escape in a stolen boat again.

The basic source of most water vapor is the ocean, evaporation, vapor transport, and precipitation (陈雨) make up the continuous movement of water from ocean to atmosphere to land and back to the sea. Rivers return water the sea. In an underground arc (弧) of the cycle, flowing bodies of water discharge some water directly into rivers and some directly to the sea.
What might have been discussed before this passage?
A.The ocean.
B.The earth.
C.The rainfall.
D.The atmosphere.
Bacteria (细菌) are extremely small living things. While we measure our own sizes in inches or centimeters, bacterial size is measured in microns. One micron is a thousandth of a millimeter: a pinhead is about a millimeter across. Rod-shaped bacteria are usually from two to four microns long, while rounded ones are generally one micron in diameter. Thus, if you enlarged a rounded bacterium a thousand times, it would be just about the size of a pinhead. An adult human magnified by the same amount would be over a mile (1.6 kilometers) tall.
Even with an ordinary microscope, you must look closely to see bacteria. Using a magnification of 100 times, one finds that bacteria are barely visible as tiny rods or dots. One cannot make out anything of their structure. Using special stains, one can see that some bacteria have attached to them wavy-looking "hairs" called flagella. Others have only one flagellum. The flagella rotate, pushing the bacteria through the water. Many bacteria lack flagella and cannot move about by their own power, while others can glide along over surfaces by some little-understood mechanism.
From the bacterial point of view the world is a very different place from what it is to humans.To a bacterium water is as thick as molasses (糖蜜) is to us. Bacteria are so small that they are influenced by the movements of the chemical molecules around them. Bacteria under the microscope even those with no flagella often bounce about in the water. This is because they collide with the water molecules and are pushed this way and that molecules move so rapidly that within a tenth of a second the molecules around a flagellum have been replaced by new ones. Even bacteria without flagella are thus constantly exposed to a changing environment.
Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?
A.The characteristics of bacteria.
B.How bacteria reproduce.
C.The various functions of bacteria.
D.How bacteria contribute to disease.
????Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Apopularly-held view has it that “opportunity to learn” is the key to educational success -i.e.the more time children spend on a subject, the better they do at it. According to the recent study there seems little correlation between time spent on a subject and performance of pupils in tests. Young Austrians spend exceptionally long hours on math and science lessons; for them it pays off in higher test scores. But so do New Zealand&39;s teenagers and they do not do any better than, say Norwegians, who spend an unusually short time on lessons in both subjects. Next and of particular interest to cash-strapped governments there appears to be little evidence to support the argument, often heard from teachers&39; unions, that the main cause of educational under achievement is under funding. Low-spending countries such as South Korea and the Czech Republic are at the top. High-spenders such as America and Denmark do much worse. Obviously there are dozens of reasons other than spending why one country does well, another badly, but the success of the low–spending Czechs and Koreans does show that spending more on schools is not aprerequisite(前提) for improving standards.
Another article of faith among the teaching profession that children are bound to do better in small classes is also being undermined by educational research. The study found that France, America and Britain, where children are usually taught in classes of twenty-odd, do significant1y worse than East Asian countries where almost twice as many pupils are crammed into each class. Again, there may be social reason why some countries can cope better with large classes than others. All the same, the comparis on refutes the argument that larger is necessarily worse, Further, the study even cast some doubt over the cultural explanation for the greater success o fEast Asia: that there is some hard-to-define Asian culture, connected with parental authority and a strong social value on education, which makes children more eager to learn and easier to teach. Those who make this argument say it would of course be impossible to replicate such oriental magic in the West.
Yet the results of the study suggest that this is, to put it mildly, exaggerated. If “culture” makes English children so poor at math, then why have they done so well at science (not far behind the Japanese and South Koreans)?Any why do English pupils do well at science and badly at math, while in France it is the other way around ?A less mystical, more mundane explanation suggests it self English school: teach science well and math badly; French schools teach math better than science; East Asia schools teach both subjects well.
The passage is mainly concerned with ___.??
??A.establishing a relationship between culture and education
B.exposing educational myths
C.introduction educational philosophies
D.comparing education philosophies
All of the following are common-held beliefs about education EXCEPT___.
A.time spent on a subject correlates with academic success
B.educational achievements correlate with the money spent
C.large classes contribute to poor educational achievement
D.culture is not a deciding factor in school performance
Which of the following statements is supported by the passage?
A.Austrian teenagers do better than New Zealands teenagers
B.Low-spending will lead to good school performance.
C.Students in large classes will do better than students in small class.
D.Asian culture makes students eager to learn and easy to teach.
The fact that English pupils do well at science and badly at math while in France it is the other way around is attributable to ___.A.cultural values
B.teaching methods
C.class size
D.money spent
Which of the following countries does worse in science?A.Japan.

On leave for four days, Nobel and I drove across Scotland to the west coast and took the ferry (渡船) over to Skye. The small stone quay (码头) was spotted with shops; a bus was drawn up by the waterside, a hotel advertisement on its side. I looked at Nobel and he nodded. We had come pre-pared to be disappointed. But we had not driven far before the road gave way to a winding(蜿蜒的) track and the only signs of habitation(居住地) were a few crofters' (苏格兰小农场佃户的) cottages. It was evening when we drew up outside the Sligachan Inn at the foot of the Coolin Mountains. The innkeeper welcomed us and showed us our rooms.
From every window was the same view, gray mountains rising in austere(简朴的) beauty, their peaks hidden in a white mist, and everywhere a great feeling of stillness. The shadows that lengthened across the valley, the streams that coursed down the rocks, the thin mist turning now into night, all a part of that stillness. I shivered; Skye was a world that one would either love or hate. There could be no in-between.
"It is very beautiful, "said the landlord.
" Yes, " I said, " it's beautiful.
"But only mountaineers or fools will climb those peaks. "
" We're both fools, " Nobel said shortly.
"So be it. Dinner is at eight-thirty. "
We stood a while at the window. The night was clear and our heads felt clear and cold as the air. We smelled the odor(气息) of the ground in the spring after rain, and behind us the wood smoke of the pine fire in our room, and we were content. For these are the odors of nostalgia(乡愁), spring mist and wood smoke, and never the scent of a woman or of food.
We were alone in the inn save for one old man who had returned there to diet. His hair was white, but his face and bearing were still those of a mountaineer, though he must have been a great age. He never spoke, but appeared regularly at meals to take his place at a table tight-pressed against the window, alone with his wine and his memories. We thought him rather fine.

B.It was severely cold.
C.It was not really cold.
