The days of the hunter are almost over in India. This is partly because there is practically nothing left to kill, and partly because some steps have been taken, mainly by banning tiger-shooting, to protect those animals which still survive.

Some people say that Man is naturally a hunter. I disagree with this view. Surely our earliest forefathers, who at first possessed no weapons, spent their time digging for roots, and were no doubt themselves often hunted by meat-eating animals.

I believe the main reason why the modern hunter kills is that he thinks people will admire his courage in overpowering dangerous animals. Of course, there are some who truly believe that the killing is not really the important thing, and that the chief pleasure lies in the joy of the hunt and the beauties of the wild countryside. There are also those for whom hunting in fact offers a chance to prove themselves and risk death by design; these men go out after dangerous animals like tigers, even if they say they only do it to rid the countryside of a threat. I can respect reasons like these, but they are clearly different from the need to strengthen your high opinion of yourself.

The greatest big-game hunters expressed in their writings something of these finer motives. One of them wrote.

“You must properly respect what you are after and shoot it cleanly and on the animal’s own territory(领地)。You must fix forever in your mind all the wonders of that particular day. This is better than letting him grow a few years older to be attacked and wounded by his own son and eventually eaten, half alive, by other animals, Hunting is not a cruel and senseless killing - not if you respect the thing you kill, not if you kill to enrich your memories, not if you kill to feed your people.”

I can understand such beliefs, and can compare these hunters with those who hunted lions with spears(矛) and bravely caught them by the tail. But this is very different from many tiger-shoots I have seen, in which modern weapons were used. The so-called hunters fired from tall trees or from the backs of trained elephants. Such methods made tigers seem no more dangerous than rabbits.

1.There is no more hunting in India now partly because___.

A. it is dangerous to hunt there

B. hunting is already out of date

C. hunters want to protect animals

D. there are few animals left to hunt

2.The author thinks modern hunters kill mainly____.

A. to make the countryside safe

B. to earn people’s admiration

C. to gain power and influence

D. to improve their health

3.What do we learn about the big-game hunters?

A. They hunt old animals

B. They mistreat animals

C. They hunt for food

D. They hunt for money

4.What is the author’s view on the tiger-shoots he has seen?

A. Modern hunters lack the courage to hunt face-to-face

B. Modern hunters should use more advanced weapons

C. Modern hunters like to hunt rabbits instead of tigers

D. Modern hunters should put their safety first

高二英语阅读理解中等难度题查看答案及解析

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It is also the most neglect (忽视). Common reasons for not eating breakfast include having no time, not feeling hungry, traditional dislike and dieting.

Breakfast simply means “break the fast’’. Your body spends at least 6 to 12 hours each night in a fasting state. In the morning your body needs energy for the day’s work ahead.

A good breakfast should provide 1/3 of your total calorie(卡路里)needs for the day. On average, we eat 400 less calories for breakfast than for dinner. If breakfast doesn’t appeal (吸引) to you in the morning, try eating a lighter dinner earlier in the evening or save half of your dinner for breakfast in the morning.

If you still aren’t hungry in the morning, start with something small like juice or toast or have a nutritious (有营养的) mid-morning snack (小吃) later when you are hungry.

So, you say you are on a diet. Some people fear that eating breakfast will make them hungrier during the day and they will eat more. It is true that eating breakfast is likely to make you feel hungry throughout the day. That is because your body is working correctly. Although you may feel as if you are eating more all day long, in reality you are probably not.

Not eating breakfast can also cause you overeat, since a fall in blood sugar often makes you feel very hungry later. To make matters worse, since your body is in a slow state, it will not be able to burn those extra calories very efficiently (有效). If you feed your body healthy snacks and meals throughout the day, you are less likely to become hungry and stuff (填饱) yourself as soon as you begin to eat.

Since breakfast is the first and most important meal of the day, choosing the right food is important. The best breakfast foods are fruits, juice, lean meat and grain products such as bread, rice, noodles and cereals.

1.What is the meaning of the word “fast” in the phrase “break the fast”?

A．movement                            B．going without food

C．quickness                             D．certain kind of food

2.If you don’t want to have breakfast in the morning, according to the writer’s suggestion, you should________.

A．see a doctor to have an examination

B．have a little supper

C．go to a restaurant to enjoy a good meal

D．have a good supper

3.Eating breakfast, in fact, makes your body_________.

A．work out of order                       B．produce too much energy

C．work well                             D．feel hungry quicker

4.In the last paragraph the writer mainly_________.

A. persuades us to have a good breakfast

B. tell us what food isn’t suitable for breakfast

C describes when and how we should have our breakfast

D .tell us what food we should have for breakfast

Most people are aware of what the adoption process is because it has become rather common in our society. Adoption is where a child is legally placed with guardians (监护人) or parents (or perhaps a single parent) other than the birth mother or father. Once an adoption is finalized, all parental rights are turned over to the adoptive parents and there is no legal difference between adoptive parents and natural birth parents. There are generally two types of adoption, which are closed adoption and open adoption.

When an adopted person has access to his or her adoption file and original records, it is referred to as an open adoption. The term is also used to describe any contact that may be between the adoptive family, the birth parents, and the adopted child. The level of openness can change greatly in such contact depending on each individual relationship. There can be indirect contact between the natural birth parents and the child through the form of letters and photographs, or there can be actual physical contact.

A semi-open adoption is where the birth parents may have contact with the adoptive parents before the birth of the child, either once or several times. After the birth there is no more contact. A semi-open adoption may remain as it is or it can become either open or closed.

A closed adoption is where only the medical and historical information about the biological parents is given to the adoptive family. Typically, the birth and adoptive parents do not know each other’s identities. The record of the birth parents is kept sealed (密封). A closed adoption is usually only effective in the adoption of babies. The adoption of an older child who already knows his or her birth parents cannot be kept closed.

1.How many adoption types are mentioned in the passage?

A. 2.    B. 3.    C. 4.    D. 5.

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the closed adoption?

A. The birth parents may have indirect contact with the adoptive parents.

B. The biological parents may often go to see their birth child.

C. No information about the biological parents is given to the adoptive parents.

D. Generally speaking, the adoptive parents do not know the birth parents’ identities.

3.Suppose someone adopts a child and his biological parents often get contact with the child by telephone. We can call this adoption _____.

A. a closed adoption    B. an open adoption

C. a semi-open adoption    D. a semi-closed adoption

4.From the passage, we know adoption is _____.

A. where a child is brought up by the government

B. where a child is legally sent abroad by the birth parents

C. where a child is legally placed with adoptive parents

D. where a child is sent to live with the children whose parents have died
