When I go to a new place, the first thing I like to do is walking around the streets, to explore and get lost in the city. When I first arrived in Santiago, Chile, and took a walk around the city center, one of the first things I noticed was how many stray dogs there were. The phrase “street dog” or “stray dog” is used to describe a dog with no home, who lives on the streets.

On every corner there was a sleeping dog. At every traffic light there was a dog waiting to cross. By every shop there was a dog waiting for food. At first I was nervous as I thought they might be aggressive or unfriendly. However, I have been here for more than a year now and every stray dog I have seen has been passive (顺从的), quiet and friendly.

The dogs are accepted and welcomed here in Chile. I have never seen a street dog being mistreated. In fact, they are often given food and water by the public. Some people even make jackets for the dogs or put out beds or kennels for them to sleep in.

The dogs do not have an easy life: they are often hungry, cold or injured. The government does not provide much care for these dogs.

Some people believe that the situation is getting out of control and that it is unacceptable to have so many dogs on the streets. The dogs can sometimes cause problems such as car accidents if they run into the road. There are around 2.5 million stray dogs in Chile and the dog population is growing faster than the human population. Many Chileans think that all the stray dogs should be sterilized (绝育的) so that they cannot breed (繁殖). Others think that the stray dog population should be culled (i.e. reducing the population by killing them).

The future of street dogs is uncertain but for now it looks like they are here to stay, with their population increasing year by year.

1.What did the writer find when she was in Chile?

A. Street dogs were unfriendly to foreigners.

B. Street dogs were quiet and afraid of people.

C. Shops were responsible for taking care of street dogs.

D. There were many street dogs in the city center.

2.Which of the following statements is TRUE about street dogs in Chile?

A. They are well taken care of by the government.

B. They live a happy and easy life in the city.

C. They often receive help from local people.

D. Many of them have been mistreated.

3.What can be learnt from the article?

A. The population of street dogs in Chile will soon be reduced.

B. The Chilean government is working to improve the life of street dogs.

C. Street dogs are responsible for most of Chile’s car accidents.

D. Street dogs are a cause for worry for some people in Chile.

4.The underlined word “aggressive” in the passage probably means__________.

A. 增长的　　 B. 有吸收力的　　 C. 积极的　　 D. 有攻击性的

5.The article was mainly written to ___________.

A. show how dogs live well with people　　 B. call on people to protect street dogs

C. discuss problems caused by street dogs　　 D. describe the situation of street dogs in Chile

The sun went down when an old man came to a small mountain village with a heavy bag. He found an inn(小旅馆) and wanted to stay there for the night.

After he had gone to his room, the owner of the inn said to his wife, “Look at his heavy bag, dear! I’m sure there’re a lot of valuable(贵重的) things.

They thought hard and at last the woman had an idea. “We have forgetful grass,” said the woman. “Why not put some into his food? If he has the food, he’ll forget to take his bag away tomorrow morning.” “How clever you are!” said the owner, “don’t forget it when you cook supper for him.”

Choose the best answer (根据文章内容，选择最恰当的答案)：

“Mother, may I go down to the river? It has stopped raining now!”

“Very well, Tom,” replied his mother, “only, be careful, and don’t stay away long!”

So, Tom ran off down the field to the river which flowed past his father’s farm in far north Queensland in Australia. It had been raining for ten days. Sometimes the rain fell fast and hard, then light showers would follow. The ground was all wet.

“All hot countries, such as where we live,” Tom’s father had once told him, “may flood at times. The sun has great power in the tropics to draw up the water from the sea. You know how the vapour rises into the air. The higher the temperature of the air, the greater the amount of moisture(水分) the air can hold. When the air cools, the vapour becomes clouds, or if it is near the earth’s surface, as mist(薄雾). When the air cools gradually(逐渐地), the rain drops are small and the rain is light. However, when the vapour drops suddenly in temperature, the drops are large and the rain is heavy.”

“In some tropical countries, where the sun is always at work on large bodies of water, a very large amount of vapour collects in the air, and it may take days, or even weeks, to form rain drops and fall. It may then rain for days continually. When this happens, after two or three days, the water falls does not have the time to soak(浸泡) through the soil or be carried off in the streams; so it gathers on the surface, and then we have a flood.”

When Tom got to the river, where the crossing was, he found the water rising rapidly. He thought about what his father had taught him about the floods, and decided to go back home at once and tell him the news.

1.What did Tom’s father probably do?

A. A geography teacher. B. A scientist.

C. A farmer. D. A doctor.

2.How long had Tom probably stayed at home?

A. Ten days. B. Two days. C. Three days. D. Several weeks.

3.The air can hold a lot of moisture when ________.

A. the air cools down suddenly B. the air cools down gradually

C. the temperature is high D. the temperature is low

4.Which order is RIGHT according to the passage?

(1) The water from the sea rises into the air and became vapour.

(2) When the air cools down, it begins to rain.

(3) The vapour became clouds or mist.

(4) Too much water gathers on the surface and becomes flood.

A. (1)(2)(3)(4) B. (2)(1)(3)(4) C. (4)(1)(3)(2) D. (1)(3)(2)(4)

5.What was the “news” in the last sentence?

A. Maybe a terrible flood was coming soon.

B. They could start to work on the farm immediately.

C. The rain had caused a great loss to their farm.

D. He had learned how the flood came into being.

6.Tom was a ________ boy according to the passage.

A. hardworking B. generous C. lazy D. clever
