Exactly As Described Feb 15, 2010
Product arrived quickly. The description said there was a tear on the cover of the book. I was pleased that it was just a small tear and otherwise the book was in very good condition. This seller was honest and did not try to overplay the condition in order to make a sale. Some good information Feb 06, 2010
This book does have some good information, but it does not talk at all about eating organic food, grass fed beef, free-range eggs, etc. The poisonous pesticides (杀虫剂) and artificial hormones (激素) in our society have a huge effect on our health and some illnesses probably wouldn’t even exist if it weren’t for them.
Fantastic Aug 05, 2009

The year was 1932. Amelia Earhart was flying alone from North America to England in a small one-engine airplane. At midnight, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter failed. (The altimeter shows the height of the plane above the ground.) At night, and in a storm, a pilot is in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly dived into the Atlantic Ocean.
Just before daylight, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed fire coming from the engine. Would she be able to reach land? There was nothing to do except to keep going and to hope.
Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland, and for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe. When she returned to the United States, she was honoured by President Hoover at a special dinner in the White House. From that time on, Amelia Earhart was famous.
What was so important about her flight? Amelia Earhart was the first woman to fly the Atlantic Ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fifty-six minutes. 24. The passage shows that Amelia was very ____.
A. brave B. clever C. warm-hearted D. lonely 25. Her flight was important, because ____.
A. Amelia was a woman pilot B. nobody has broken her record C. no woman flew the Atlantic alone before
D. Amelia was able to overcome the difficulties during the flight 26. Amelia’s successful flight has proved that ____.
A. women can do everything B. women can do things, as men have done C. men and women are equal (平等) now D. women pilots are more successful than men pilots 27. According to the passage, which one is right? ____.

Comera is the only place in the world which has a whistle (口哨) language.①We do not know how and why it began because we do not know the complete history of the island. But we can certainly imagine the reasons for the beginning of the whistle language. There are many deep valleys (峡谷) on the island. A person on one side of a valley can not easily shout to a person on the other side.
·3·
But he can whistle and be heard. Some of the best whistlers can be heard from four miles away and the record is seven miles. The people who live on the island usually have good teeth, and this helps them to whistle well. They must also have good ears so that they can hear other whistlers.
We can understand why the whistle language continues. It is very useful on the island, and quite easy to learn. When somebody is hurt or ill, the whistle language takes the place of telephone. If the sick person is quite far away from the town, people pass the message from one to another. A boy guarding cattle (放牛) on a hillside whistles to a man fishing from his boat. The last one is able to describe the trouble fully and exactly to the doctor in town. People help one another in the same way when a car breaks or a cow is lost.
The whistle language is hundreds of years old, and probably it will continue to live on for hundreds of years more. Radio and TV often kill the special ways of speaking in the different parts of a country.②But on Comera you are nobody if you cannot whistle. Perhaps soon after TV arrives on the island, the people there will be whistling the news and other facts and opinions. 28. If a person on Comera island is ill, ____. A. others will phone the doctors in town
B. the whistle language will help pass the message to the doctor C. his family will take him to the hospital D. people will take him to town by carriage
29. From this passage we know radio and TV ____ at that time. A. killed the special way of speaking B. whistled all the news and opinions
C. helped Comera people to communicate D. did not appear on Comera island yet 30. Comera island is special in that____ . A. many visitors go there every year B. no visitors have ever been there
C. people there have special ears to hear whistles
D. people there use the whistle language to communicate with each other
31. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. It is not easy for a person to live on Comera island if he cannot whistle. B. The whistle language can only be found in Comera.
C. The whistle language has been used for hundreds of years on the island, but will not be used any longer.
D. The record shows that one best whistler can be heard by others seven miles away.

Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient (便利的) way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two—thirds of the world’s population live within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive (=continue to live). Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be
·4·
hoped to supply many of man’s needs.
The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations (探险) have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined (开采).
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish (贝类动物) is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by Oriental people.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents (水流) and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore (勘探) ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.
The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2020 the problems that prevent us from exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.
32. The major things that the sea offers man are ______.
A. fish and oil B. minerals and oilC. warm temperature and ocean currents D. the food, energy sources, and minerals
33. The sea serves the needs of man because ______.
A. in provides man with food B. it offers oil to man C. it supplies man with minerals D. all of the above 34. We can conclude from this passage that ______. A. the sea resources have largely been used up
B. the sea, in the broad sense, has not yet been developed
C. the problems that prevent us from using the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea have already been solved.
D. by the year 2000 , the technology will be good enough to exploit all the sea resources 35. The best title for this passage is ______.
A. Sea Harvest B. Sea Food
C. Technology for Exploiting the Sea D. Man and the Sea 第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
