       We bought a pair of geese one spring when they were both two weeks old. One was a female Chinese goose I named Su and her mate was a white goose I named Goose. They would follow us all around the yard talking to us whenever we came outside. At night, they stayed in a box in our kitchen until they were too big and then they stayed at night outside. They loved the river and soon began staying out all night on the river. Whenever I wanted to know where they were, I would make a honking noise (雁叫声) , and they would answer me and come into the yard for their corn.

       One night, I was woken up by loud noise. We ran out to see what was wrong. A raccoon(浣熊) had decided that some goose eggs would taste good and had come too close to the setting.When we found Su, the raccoon had caught her by her neck and was biting it.We drove it away and took Su to the garage, washed her wound and wrapped it up in a bandage.Goose knew she was there and wanted to be with her, so we opened the small garage door and he hurried in.After two days and nights, I released them back outside.

       For the first three nights at dusk, we would get her and carry her into the garage for the night and Goose would come running behind us to join her there.We were touched by his devotion to her.We took off her bandage and she was fine  so that next night, we had not planned to take her to the garage any longer.We were amazed, however, that when dusk fell that night, she climbed the back steps to our garage door waiting for us to come and get her in! They do not speak our language, but they know when people care about them and love them and they respond in kind.

44.The first paragraph mainly tells us that     

       A.geese mainly feed on corn and fish            B.the geese were taken good care of

       C.the geese got on badly with the writer       D.geese prefer to stay outside than inside

45. The raccoon attacked Su one night because        

       A. it thought goose eggs were delicious      B. Su's nest was too close to the raccoon's

       C. it wanted to hunt the goose for food        D. Su's appearance in the area annoyed it

46. Where would Su probably stay at night after her recovery?

       A. In the wild.                               B. In the kitchen.                      

       C. On the river.                                 D. In the garage.

47. It can be inferred from the last sentence that           .

I am Sergey Brin! I was born in Moscow. In 1979,when I was 5, my family immigrated to California, USA . I remember that on my 9th birthday, I got my first computer “Commodore 64”.
Later I graduated with honors in the University of Maryland in Mathematics and IT. The main field of my science research was the technologies used to collect data from unsystematic sources as well as large quantities of texts and science data. I was the author of dozens of articles in leading American academic magazines.
The greatest event in my life happened when in 1998 I was preparing for the defense(论文答辩) of my Doctor’s degree in the Stanford University. There the fate made me meet Larry Page—a young computer genius. Larry belonged to the intellectual society. I and Larry quickly became friends when we were working together.
We were searching day and night on the Internet. We were finding a lot of information but with the feeling we still couldn’t find enough of what we were looking for . Naturally the idea for a search engine that would allow specific information to be found in the endless pool of data was born like it came to us. It wasn’t our plans but we gave up the education at the university. You know the next part ,maybe—we managed to turn an ordinary garage in Peplo Park, California , the USA into our first office, in which Google was born. With excitement we typed the name of the thing which we created with love on September 14th,1998—www.Google.com. Now after those years we bought this garage. As a symbol it will always remind us that everything is possible.
【小题1】Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?

A.The Birth of GoogleB.The Founder of Google
C.The Importance of CooperationD.The Great Contribution to the Internet
【小题2】From the passage we know that Larry Page________.
A.was born from a rich merchant family
B.was once a student in the Stanford University
C.published some academic articles when young
D.was Brin’s important partner in starting Google
【小题3】Why did they found Google ?
A.Because they loved working with the Internet so much.
B.Because they wanted to make a lot of money through the Internet
C.Because they hoped to make it easy to find specific information online
D.Because they believed everything is possible.
【小题4】Which is the right order of what happened ?
a. My family moved from Russia to the USA
b. I met Larry Page
c. I was given a computer as a present on my 9th birthday.
d. google was born in an ordinary garage in California.
e. I graduated from the university in Mathematics and IT.
