21．（6分） This week, a mammoth (猛犸象) possibly killed by humans 10,000 to 15,000 years ago was found in soy fields about 50 miles west of Detroit. It was found by farmer James Bristle and his neighbor Trent Satterthwaite, who were reportedly digging in the field. At first, they couldn’t figure out what they were seeing.
“It was probably a rib bone that came up,” Bristle tells Ann Arbor News. “We thought it was a bent
fence post.” Upon closer inspection, however, it became clear even to untrained eyes this was no fence post. “We knew it was something special.” Then they sped up the dig.
After finding the bones Monday night, Bristle called the University of Michigan Tuesday morning to report his find. Scientist Daniel Fisher arrived to inspect it Wednesday, and by Thursday morning he had confirmed it’s a woolly mammoth. He concludes the animal was about 40 years old when it died. It was hunted by humans, he says, who killed it arid stored the remains in a pond as a way of preserving the meat for future use. It’s still too early to tell exactly how it died, Fisher tells Detroit’s WWJ-TV, “but the skeleton showed signs of human’s butchering.”
The bones are being temporarily stored nearby, according to the Free Press, and it remains unclear where they’ll eventually end up. Their research value will be determined once they’ve been cleaned and dried.
Woolly mammoths once lived in Eurasia and North America, and most disappeared by 10,000 years ago—a demise (终止) that has been linked not only to humans, but also to changing climate. It’s now believed that warming weather weakened their populations before humans dealt the final blows. 1、How did James Bristle and his neighbor find what they found at first? A．It’s delicate. C．It’s unique.
B．It’s old. D．It’s worthless.
2、What can we know about the mammoth according to the text? A．It might die in its 40s.
C．It preferred walking in the fields. 3、Which is Daniel Fisher’s opinion? A．The bones are well worth studying. B．The mammoth was killed by a butcher.
C．The newfound site has evidence of human activity. D．It’s unclear whether the bones were a mammoth’s. 4、What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean? A．Dried their bones. C．Destroyed their home.
B．Took their lives. D．Preserved their meat. B．It was native to Eurasia.
D．It mainly died from climate change.
22． Over the years Lisa urged her sister Helen to prepare for her old age. Now they passed （8分）sixty. Lisa had a big house, Helen had the clothes on her back.
Lisa had hated being a child and couldn’t wait to grow up and buy herself everything. What Helen wanted was to go outside and play.
When anyone would hire her, Lisa put herself to work. She never touched a penny of her money
though her young mouth watered for ice cream and candy. When the dimes (一角硬币) added up to dollars， she lost her taste for sweets. And her bankbook became her most precious possession.
Helen had a boyfriend Harry whose only ambition was to play a horn. That Helen married Harry straight out of high school was not surprising. Two or three times Lisa was halfway persuaded, but to give up a job that paid well for a homemaking job that paid nothing was a risk she was unable to take.
Helen’s married life was nothing for Lisa to envy. She and Harry played in second-rate bands. But Lisa had a big house because her boss offered her his first house at a price so low that it would be like losing money to refuse.
Harry died abroad, in a third-rate hotel, with Helen crying as hard as if he had left her a fortune. He had left her nothing but his horn. Lisa knew she would have to bring her home.
At dinner, Helen began to tell stories. They were rich with places and people, most of them lowly, all of them magnificent. Her face showed the joys and sorrows.
Then Lisa knew why Helen didn’t mention the shining room. Tonight Helen saw only what she had come seeking, a place in her sister’s home and heart.
She said, “That’s enough about me. How have the years used you?” “I didn’t use them,” said Lisa regretfully. “I saved for them but forgot to enjoy them. Now it’s too near the end to try. ”Helen said, “Don’t count the years that are left to us. At our time of life it’s the days that count. You’ve too much catching up to do to waste a minute of a waking hour feeling sorry for yourself.” Lisa smiled. 1、In her life Lisa attached most value to . A．further education B．a job in hand
C．ice cream and candy D．a chance to get married 2、Why did Lisa lose her taste for sweets?
A．Because she kept working and had no time to buy sweets. B．Because she worked hard to make dimes add up to dollars. C．Because she kept saving money and lost the basic desires. D．Because she had little money to afford sweets. 3、In what way is the story mainly developed? A．Changing locations. B．Giving examples. C．Creating conflicts. D．Comparing characters. 4、What is probably the best title of the passage? A．Single or Married? B．Preparations for Old Age C．Rich or Poor? D．A House and a Bank Account 23．（8分）Whizzfizzing Festival
