One cold morning in winter, I went alone to a hillside to do some hunting. I sat there waiting for about an hour. Suddenly, a big beautiful deer appeared less than 20 feet away from me. There was no cover near him. Surely I could shoot him.

To my surprise, he came toward me! He was curious, I suppose, or maybe he was stupid. For this was not a youngster, but a fully grown-up one. He must have known about men and their guns. But this deer came closer, and I still waited. His big eyes never moved away from my face. His wonderful head with a set of antlers (鹿角) was clear in sight.

I was getting a bit nervous as he walked closer. A big deer can do a lot of damage. Well, he walked right up to where I was sitting. Then he stopped and looked at me.

What happened next was hard to believe. But it all seemed quite natural. I held out my hands and scratched his head right between the antlers. And he liked it. The big, wild, beautiful deer bent his head.

I scratched and touched his head and body. His nose touched my shoulder. I fed him with my last sandwich. Well, he finally went his way, down the hill. Shoot him? Not me. You wouldn’t, either. Not after that. I just watched him go, a strong deer carrying a proud head.

I picked up my gun, and started walking back. Suddenly, I heard two shots, one after another. If you have hunted much, you will know what two shots mean. They mean a kill. I had forgotten that there were other hunters around. You will now understand why I gave up hunting from that day on.

1. How the deer behaved toward the writer shows that______.

A. it pretended to be friendly to the writer

B. it was quite friendly to the writer

C. it was too scared to run away

D. it wanted to attack the writer

2.You can infer from the passage that ______.

A. the writer had waited for more than an hour before the deer appeared

B. the writer was a little nervous at first as he had been attacked by a big deer before

C. the writer felt afraid to kill the deer the moment the deer walked up to him

D. a grown-up deer usually will not get close to men with guns

3.After reading the whole passage, we can know that the passage is written in a(n)_____ tone.

A. sad　　 B. excited　　 C. worried　 D. happy

Getting up in a cold winter morning is even a difficult thing to do and doing some exercise outdoors seems a tough task. 1. . People who run outdoors simply need to dress in the appropriate clothing.

Running in the cold actually helps burn more calories compared to the same activity done indoors. Cold weather basically requires the body to work harder to achieve perfect temperature for efficient functioning.

Cold winter weather is a common excuse for people to get lazy and stay indoors. Some people also eat a whole lot when it’s cold outside. 2.. With these, the body’s metabolism(新陈代谢) will also slow down and eventually result in weight gain. When running is done, possible weight gain may be prevented.

3. When the temperatures are freezing and low, the body’s metabolism will also slow down and the only way to promote blood circulation is to do some exercise like running.

Having depression or a sad mood is common during the winter months. 4.　 Doing some running will also help to lift spirits up and make people happier.

Running activities basically help the body become healthy and strong regardless of indoors or outdoors. The additional thing is that the body needs extra work to knock back the freezing temperatures. 5..

A.Good blood circulation promotes metabolism

B.Running outdoors is also good exercise for the heart

C.With this, people will not only become healthier but also happier

D.The changes lead to people feeling down during the cold winter months

E.However, running outdoors in winter may actually provide various benefits

F.Other people meanwhile tend to watch TV all day or sleep for longer periods

G.These feelings are regarded as a common phenomenon with those living in the north

Britain is set to face an increase in cold winters, with up to one-in-seven hitting the UK with longer periods of time when temperatures are below freezing, a study has suggested．The prediction was based on research that found out how low solar activity affected winter weather patterns．

However, the researchers were eager to stress that their findings did not suggest that the region was about to fall suddenly into a "little ice age"．The findings appear in the journal Environmental Research Letters．"We could get to the point where one-in-seven winters are very cold, as we had at the start of last winter and all through the winter before last," said co-author Mike Lockwood, professor of space environment physics at the University of Reading．

Using the Central England Temperature （CET） record, the world's longest instrumental data series that dates back to 1659, the team said that in general temperatures during recent winters had been obviously lower than the longer-term temperatures．"The mean CET for December, January and February for the recent relatively cold winters of 2008 ~ 2009 and 2009~2010 were 3．50℃ and 2．53℃ respectively," they wrote． "However, the mean value for the previous 20 winters had been 5．04℃．The series of lower winter temperatures in the UK during the last three years had raised questions about the probability of more similar, or even colder, winters occurring in the future．"

Last year．Professor Lockwood and colleagues published a paper that found a link between fewer sunspots and atmospheric conditions that "blocked" warm westerly winds reaching Europe during winter months, opening the way for cold easterly winds from the Arctic and Russia to sweep across the region．Professor Lockwood, while acknowledging that there were a range of possible meteorological factors （气象因素） that could influence blocking events, said the latest study moved things forward by showing that there was "improvement in the predictive skill" when solar activity was taken into consideration．

1.We can know from the second paragraph that _____．

A．research shows that Britain will soon fall into an ice age

B．Mike Lockwood's research focuses on space environment physics

C．it was quite cold in Britain over the entire winter last year

D．so far one-in-seven winters have been very cold in Britain

2.The．underlined word "mean" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to "_____"．

A．average              B．stable           C．ungenerous       D．changeable

3.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．It was sunspots that blocked warm westerly winds reaching Europe．

B．Meteorological factors hardly have any influence on blocking events．

C．The latest study done by Professor Lockwood was of little practical value．

D．Considering solar activity or not affects the accuracy of weather forecasting．

4.What's the best title of the passage?

A．Another big danger approaching the UK

B．Research finds out solar activity is to blame for the cold

C．UK faces more cold winters due to weaker solar activity

D．Changes in weather patterns should be responsible for low solar activity
