John White,a typical teenage boy,is keen on hiking and photography.He also lives in a large zoo.
John,the son of the late"Crocodile Hunter"star Steve White,is now taking center stage in"Crikey!It's the Whites,"a new series on Animal Planet."We've worked on quite a few different
TV projects,but this is actually the first time my whole family has come back to Animal Planet together,so it's pretty unusual,"says John. Premiering(首映）at 8 p.m.on Sunday,"Crikey!"follows the Whites as they run the 100-acre Australia Zoo,founded by Steve White's parents.Steve owned and ran the zoo before he died in 2006."We've always grown up in front of a camera.Bindi,my sister, and I were both filmed for some of the original' Crocodile Hunter' documentaries(纪录片），”says John.
＂I'm very lucky in the way that I've had so much of my life captured(拍摄）on camera,so as the memories you have of Dad start to fade,you can always look back at the old footage(镜头）and relive those special moments,"he says.
＂Crikey!It's the Whites"has some footage of Steve.The most exciting part of the premiere involves John leading the"Croc Show"at the zoo's"Crocoseum",a 5,500-seat stadium Steve built to give crocodile performances and educate visitors about crocodile behavior.
Of course,running a zoo doesn't leave much time for school,so John participates in Distance Education,a program similar to homeschooling."School can be difficult for me to fit in,"he says."But I've actually got a classroom that's set up at Australia Zoo and a teacher that travels with us wherever we go,so I can fit in all of my studies." John continues,"I'm learning as much as I can about all of the animals and all of the work at Australia Zoo. I feel really honored to be following in Dad's footsteps.I love continuing that work."
24.Why is the new series special to John?

Have you ever felt that someone you were talking with was standing so close that you had the urge to step backwards?If so,you're not alone.We all have our own sense of personal space-the physical distance that we like to keep while interacting with others.When someone intrudes into this space,it's natural to feel anxiety or discomfort.However,the root of this feeling may actually be less"personal"than cultural.
For North Americans and northern Europeans,the ideal amount of personal space is between 0.9 and 1.2 meters.In contrast,for those who grew up in India,China,or Japan,personal space can be as little as a few centimeters.Since these countries are relatively crowded,people have become accustomed to a much smaller personal space.
Touch also plays a part in defining our comfort zones.While touching between acquaintances is deemed acceptable in casual or intimate situations in the United States, in South America and southern Europe,physical contact is considered an important part of everyday conversation.In these places,those who do not interact physically are seen as cold.
The size of one's personal space also depends on other factors.When you're in a familiar environment,such as your living room,you're more likely to allow people to get a little closer.The same goes for when you're with family and close friends,as you'll be more accepting of their entering your"intimate space",that is,within 50 centimeters of you.
If someone makes you nervous,though,you'll want to extend your personal space as far as possible.This reaction is the result of a defense mechanism triggered by your brain.
With all these variables to consider,then,how can people be sure whether or not they're invading another' s personal space?The easiest thing to do is to be aware of the other' s body language.If you're talking to someone and he or she moves away from you,don't insist on closing the gap.When it comes to personal space,be considerate and play it safe!
28.Based on the article,we can see that
A.the ideal amount of personal space is between 0.9 and 1.2 meters
B.the area of one's house determines the size of his personal space
C.physical contact is an integral part of a conversation for people living in northern Europe
D.culture is a dominant factor in what one's ideal amount of personal space is
29.What is the purpose of the second paragraph?
A.To present the different variables that influence one's"intimate space".
B.To describe the role that touch plays in defining one's comfort zone.
C.To contrast ideal personal space defined by different countries.
D. To explain why North Americans perceive(察觉到）others as cold.
30.Where would one feel the most comfortable,according to the article?
A.At a friend's wedding.
B.In a subway with an acquaintance.
C.At work with colleagues.
D.In a park with one's family.
31.What is the author's suggestion at the end of the article?
A.Always ask people what their ideal amount of personal space is.
B.Don't step forward if someone steps back from you in a conversation.
C.Apologize when invading someone's personal space.
D.Be considerate and avoid others' eye- tracking.
D
For many businesses,the Internet has created benefits that go beyond their wildest dreams.It has reduced the costs of advertising and increased visibility for companies all over the world.Such freedom of access to information has a dark side,though,and many businesses are learning about it the hard way.
These days,if you want to find a particular shop,just type in the name of the place you're looking for on Google Maps to get directions instantly.You can also get information about hours of operation,the business's telephone number,and more.
Unfortunately,some dishonest folks are using dirty tricks to manipulate(暗中控制） the system and deceive users.The problem exists because Google Maps is partly a crowdsourced undertaking,meaning anyone can enter information about a business whether it is true or false.All dishonest competitors have to do is enter a fake address, incorrect business hours,or any other lie about their competitors.
Google Maps is also littered with thousands of businesses that don't even exist. Clicking on their links directs users to malicious(恶意的）sites.One particular group of businesses that have been taken over by liars almost completely are locksmiths.A large percentage of them are illegal businesses that aren't licensed.These dishonest artists know how vulnerable you are,and they only take cash.
Using Google Maps isn't the sole way that businesses are waging war against one another on the Internet.Some shady businesses post fake negative reviews of their competitors on websites such as Yelp.It is so common that it can be difficult to tell the genuine reviews from the fake ones.
Crowdsourcing allows us to find out the good and the bad about businesses. Unfortunately,the fake reviews and the cheat make finding legitimate businesses online far less convenient.For business owners,being the victims of effective cyber attacks can actually be nails in their coffins.
32.The benefit of using the Internet for business listed in the passage is
A. making it easier for customers to contact one's company
B.making it cheaper to promote one's company
C.making it convenient for one to communicate with clients from around the world
D.making it simpler for one to find top-quality employees
33.According to the article,we know about Google Map that
A.it provides a filter system to tell registered businesses from fake ones
B.it is hard for users to manipulate information without permission
C. it is difficult to find a legal locksmith on there
D.it will easily make users become virus-infected
34.What does"nails in their coffins"mean in the final paragraph?
A.The businesses will need to invest more money.
B.The businesses will need to advertise less often.
C.The businesses will go out of business.
D.The businesses will start to take off.
35.What is the main idea of this article?
A.The Internet has caused a lot of trouble for some businesses.
B.The Internet has resulted in the death of traditional businesses.
C.The Internet has brought about more positive than negative results for business.
D.The Internet creates both benefits and problems for businesses.

What's small,buzzes here and there and visits flowers?If you say bees or hummingbirds,you get it. 36 Now a group of researchers even say we should embrace our history of considering the two together in the same group.The way
scientists study bees could help them study hummingbird behavior,too. Scientists first compared the two back in the 1970s when studying how animals searched for food.The idea is that animals use a kind of math to make choices in order to minimize the work it takes to earn
maximum rewards. 37 They were committed to the order in which these little creatures visited flowers,and where flowers were located to others."It was almost like an algorithm(算法）for efficient searching,"said David Pritchard,a biologist in Scotland.Hummingbirds and bees had similar solutions.
38 Neuroscientists and behavioral ecologists developed ways to study bee behavior in naturalistic settings.Hummingbird researchers compared hummingbirds to other birds and borrowed methods from psychology to study their ability to learn in the lab. 39 For example,hummingbirds have more advanced eyes and brains than bees.Honeybees are social;hummingbirds typically aren't.
However they perceive or process information,they both experience similar information. 40
Like other birds,they may be dependent on distances and directions to make maps when travelling long distances,but they don't use these cues to find flowers.Move a flower just an inch away from where a hummingbird thought it was and it will hover over the flower's original location.Scientists are investigating if, like bees,hummingbirds engage in view matching-hovering,scanning snapshots of a place to its memory and using those as references later.
A.As the field of animal cognition appeared,hummingbird and bee research parted.
B.To be fair,hummingbirds and bees differ.
C.Hummingbirds may rely on more of a bee's-eye view than a bird's-eye view.
D. Researchers at the time focused on movement rules.
E.Bees may greatly depend on directions.
F.The hummingbirds enjoy higher abilities.
G.You won't be the first if you mix the two up.

Jarrett Little was road testing his mountain bike outside of Columbus,Georgia, when his riding partner,Chris Dixon,stopped suddenly.Something 41 in the distance among the trees had caught her attention.It 42 out to be a sandy-colored five-month-old puppy.
＂He was really thin,his ribs were showing,and he had a broken leg,"Little told John Parks,a reporter from CBS News.The cyclists 43 the friendly pup and shared their water.They also quickly realized that the dog was coming with them,although they had no idea how.They were more than seven miles from downtown and riding bikes."We couldn't 44 him,"Little said."Out there,next to the Oxbow Meadows,he was going to 45 as the food of alligators living in the river."
Little,a 31-year-old businessman,had an idea.He carefully picked up his new 46 and slipped the 38-pound dog's hind legs into the back pockets of his cycling coat.Then he put the dog's front paws 47 his shoulders.
＂He was 48,so he wasn't trying to fight,"Little says."He was also 49 that we were there,touching him,and hadn't left him behind.”
The group's 30-minute 50 into town ended at a bike store,where they got more water and food for the dog.That was when Andrea Shaw,an accountant from Maine in town on business,happened to come by."The dog ran to her straight,licking and rubbing against her,"says Dixon.Shaw was a little surprised. 51,learning what had happened,she declared her 52:“I am keeping this dog."
Shaw called him Columbo after the town where they'd 53 and scheduled an 54 on his leg.Today Columbo is living a happy life on a farm with a horse,a pony, a six-year-old boy,to keep him company.As Dixon told John Parks,"He is literally the 55 dog alive."

There was once a boy in ragged clothes running to ask a building contractor(包工头）who wore elegant clothes in a construction site of a skyscraper(摩天大楼），“How could I become as rich as you when I grow up?"
With a glance at the boy,the tall and strong-build contractor replied,"I would like to tell you a story first about three diggers.The first digger liked holding a spade(锹） without doing anything but saying that he wanted to be a boss in the future.The second digger liked complaining about the long-time work and his low salary.The third digger always quietly devoted himself to digging without making any claims.Several years later,the first digger was still holding his spade in the original place and the second took an excuse of work injury for early retirement.Only the third digger became the boss of the building company.Do you understand the moral of this story?Just go to buy a red shirt and work hard.”
The little boy was puzzled and could not figure out the implication of the story.So he asked the contractor to explain further.Pointing to the builders who were working on the scaffold(脚手架），the contractor talked to the little boy,"Look at those people! They are all my workers.I can't remember all of their names,and even I have no impression of some of them.But if you look carefully,you will notice a sunburned man in red among them.I notice him very early.He seems to be working harder with higher spirits than others.He is always the first one to work every day while the last one to leave.It is exactly his red shirt that makes him stand out among all the workers.Now I am about to ask him to be my taskmaster and I believe he will work even much harder from now on.Maybe he will soon be promoted to my assistant."

2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The contractor told the boy that was also how he had got where he was then.
