14.Have you ever wondered why birds sing?(36)B After all,you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.
Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.
(37)FTheir singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a"territory"is?A territory is an area that an animal,usually the male,claims(声称) as its won.Only he and his family are welcome there.No other families of the same species are welcome.Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome.If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you,you might shout. (38)EIf so,you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him. (39)ABut he expects an outsider almost all the time,especially at nesting(筑巢) season.So he is screaming all the time,whether he can see an outsider or not.This screaming is what we call a bird's song,and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.
Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate(配偶) and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.
(40)D Most of it has to do with attracting males and setting up territories.

A.A bird does the same thing.
B.Maybe you thought that they were just happy.
C.Shouting loudly is just like a bird's screaming.
D.You can see that birds have a language of their own.
E.Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.
F.However,they sing most of the time for a very different reason.
G.So,just like human beings,birds sing for almost the same reasons.

9.The spread of Western eating habits around the world is bad for human health and for the environment.Those findings come from a new report in the journal Nature.
    David Tilman is a professor at the University of Minnesota.In the study,he examined information from 100 nations to show what people ate and how diet affected health.Mr.Tilman noted a movement beginning in the 1960s.He found that as na tions industrialized(工业化),population increased and earnings rose.More people began to adopt what has been called the Western diet.The Western diet is high in sugar,fat,oil and meat.By eating these foods,people began to get fatter and sicker.
"The food,let us say,in the 15 richest nations of the world,right now contains about 400 or 500 extra calories(热量) a day that are eaten beyond what people need,and that leads people to gain weight."
    David Tillman says overweight people are at greater risk for diseases like diabetes,heart disease and some cancers.Diabetes is shooting to very high rates in the United States and across Europe.Heart disease is a major cause of death in the Western nations.Unfortunately when people become industrialized,if they adopt this Western diet,they are going to have these same health problems.
    A diet bad for human beings,it seems,is also bad for the environment.As the world's population grows,experts say more forests and areas will become farmland for crops or grasslands for raising cattle.These areas will be needed to meet the increasing demand for food.
   Mr.Tilman calls the link between diet,the environment and human health,"a dilemma",a situation where it is very difficult to decide what to do.He says one possible solution is leaving the Western diet behind.
32.Why did people get fatter in the 1960s?B
A.They ate foods high in calories.
B.They adopted a western lifestyle.
C.They set aside little time for exercise.
D.They had a better life and became lazier.
33.According to the text,overweight people may suf fer the following diseases EXCEPTD.
A.diabetes             B.heart disease      C.cancers       D.skin disease
34.What can we infer from Paragraph 5?B
A.The world's population will grow faster than ever.
B.People won't care about the environment.
C.There will be fewer and fewer forests.
D.Raising cattle will be the most moneymaking business.
35.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?D
A.To tell people effective ways to keep healthy.
B.To draw people's attention to environmental protection.
C.To show the problems industrialized nations are facing.
D.To call on people to give up the Western diet.

10.Critical Reading
Critical reading applies to non-fiction writing in which the author puts forth a position or seeks to make a statement.Critical reading is active reading.(36)E.Here are the things you should do to be a critical reader.
•Consider the context of what is written.
You may be reading something that was written by an author from a different cultural context than yours.Or,you may be reading something written some time ago in a different time context than yours.(37)G.
•Question opinions made by the author.
Don't accept what is written at face value.(38)C.Look for facts,examples,and statistics that provide support.Also,look to see if the author has involved the work of authorities.
•(39)A.
Assumptions are whatever the author must believe is true in order to propose opinions.However,in many cases,you must read carefully in order to identify any indirect assumption.Once you identify an assumption,you must decide whether or not the assumption is valid.
•Evaluate the sources the author uses.
In doing this,be certain that the sources are credible as well as relevant.(40)D.For example,studies done by Einstein in the early 20th century may not be appropriate if the writer is discussing the current state of knowledge in physics.

A.Analyze assumptions made by the author
B.What is written may very well reflect the author's position
C.Before accepting it,be certain that the author provides abundant support for any view made
D.Look to see that what is written is consistent with what others have written about the subject
E.It involves questioning,evaluating and forming your own ideas about what the author is saying
F.Moreover,if the author is writing about a subject in its current state,be sure that the sources are current
G.In either case,you must take into account any differences between your values and attitudes and the author's.

11.The producer appeared behind the recording studio window and smiled and waved to me like an old friend.And after I had read out a little test piece,he said,"That's fine,wonderful,your voice is perfect,lively,wonderful."Then I read a longer passage in English about the delights of touring in Britain,and another about the delights of visiting London,and both were"excellent"and"just right",and I began to consider a job in radio.
To be honest,I was fairly sure of myself though I lacked experience.Across the room in the Hamburg News Agency where we both worked,a friend named Peter Turner called to me,"I say,Mike,a man on the phone here wants someone to do a recording in English,and I'm booked up.Would you read something to him in English as a sort of test?"I did,and they said,"Perfect,lovely,wonderful,…"Would I come round?
It was after reading their passage in English in the studio that they noticed my vowel (元音) pronunciations were not altogether King's English,or even Prince Philip's,there was a larger silence than usual,then the voice said:"Fine,lovely…,but you said the word‘castle'with a short‘a'.Could we have the passage again please,but this time say‘castle'."
This was easy.But then he noticed other differences in my pronunciation.
"It's my northern English accent,"I said,angry,because I had to apologize for it.
"Oh,I see…but Mike,we'll have to get it right,I'm afraid.The recording is for teaching English to German schoolchildren,and it must be spoken in the way it is taught in German schools."
I read the passage again…and again…and again.But of course you cannot change the pronunciation of a lifetime in an hour.The studio men were in the state of having lost hope and underlined the vowels which caused me to feel angry,so that I'd remember them.Few,really.But because I had to concentrate (集中) on them,I made a lot of mistakes in my reading.Everyone got somewhat irritable (easily made angry),so we all went out for a beer.
64.Broadcasting did not make Mike nervousA.
A.although he had never done any before
B.because he worked in a news agency
C.because he was used to talking on the phone
D.although the passages were long
65.What happened after Mike had read the third passage?A
A.They made him repeat it.B.They said nothing.
C.They began to discuss the King's English.
D.They could not understand one of the words.
66.They wanted Mike to change his pronunciation becauseB.
A.German schoolchildren did not like a northern accent
B.it was different from the English taught in German schools
C.it was different from the English spoken in Germany
D.German schoolchildren were taught through recordings
67.Why did Mike's reading of the passage get worse?C
A.He needed a drink to clear his throat.
B.He was trying to do the recording in an hour.
C.He was trying hard to get certain sounds right.
D.He could not learn so many new sounds.
