More than 200 meters deep, it is the largest lake in the UK.People say a big monster(怪兽)lives in its dark, cold waters. It weighs more than 1,000 kilos and is at least ten meters long. Some people say it has a head like a horse. Others say it looks like a snake. Many people travel to Loch Ness to look for this strange monster, but only a few people have seen it. At least, they say they have seen it. The Loch Ness Monster is a famous legend(传说).The first story about a monster in Loch Ness was told over 500 years ago, but the legend of the monster spread widely only in the twentieth century. In 1933,a husband and wife reported that they saw a big monster in the middle of the lake. Since then, a number of people have said that they have seen a monster in Loch Ness. Several people have taken photos, but at least one of them was a hoax(骗局).During the 1960s,a team was formed to look for the monster. They took many photos and made movies, but they were never able to find a monster. There is no real fact that a monster lives in Loch Ness, but there is also no fact that one doesn't live. One thing is true about Loch Ness: there are a lot of tourists there. 31.In northern 　　　 there is a long, deep lake called Loch Ness. A. Scotland 　B. Hong Kong 　 C. Rome D. Paris 32.

A team that took photos. C There is little doubt that house cats first developed naturally from ancient wild cats. The closest relative is the African wild cat which still lives in Africa today. This is understandable because the first house cats came from Africa. Cats first started to live around people in Egypt about 6,000~7,000 years ago. From Egypt, cats started to move around the world. This is about the same time that Egyptians began storing grain(谷物)in buildings. Scientists used to believe that people tamed cats to catch mice and protect the grain. However, cats don't like to be told what to do! Now, scientists believe that cats followed the mice and learned to accept people. Finally, some of the cats began to grow comfortable around people. These were smaller cats that needed protection. As these cats and people got used to each other, then they moved in together. Around 5,000 years ago, cats started to live with people. Soon cats were in Greece, then the Middle East and China. They moved along Egyptian business roads keeping away mice and keeping people around them. After the Romans came to Egypt, they also accepted the cats and brought them to Europe. These cats likely bred(繁殖)with other cats to form the many kinds of house cats we have today. Cats are relatively recent house animals. House cats still have a lot in common with their wild relatives. Cats sleep a lot to save energy just like wild cats. They will often get food at night as well. House cats are generally peaceful and friendly, but be careful! If a cat feels it is in danger, it will fight back—just like a wild cat! 36. Where did the first house cats come from? A. Asia. B. Africa. C. Europe. D. America. 37. When did cats start to live with people? A. About 4,000 years ago. B. About 5,000 years ago. C. About 6,000 years ago. D. About 7,000 years ago. 38. According to the text, which of the following is TRUE? A. Cats started to move around the world from China. B. Cats get food at night to save energy like wild cats. C. Cats have a little in common with their wild relatives. D. Cats were accepted and brought to Europe by Romans. 39. What does the underlined word “tamed” mean in Chinese? A. 驱散 B. 捕捉 C. 驯化 D. 引进 40. What does the text mainly talk about?A. The development of house cats. B. Different cats in different countries. C. The relationship between cats and people. D. The differences between house cats and wild cats. D Let's suppose it is a common day of 2060.Of course, things have changed and life is very different. Trips to the moon are being made every day. Taking a holiday on the moon today is as easy as taking a holiday in Europe in the 2010's.At a number of scenic spots(风景 胜地)on the moon, many hotels have been built. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of the young and old. What are people eating now? People are still eating food. But many foods now come in pill(药片)form, and the food that goes into the pill comes mainly from green plants. Because people in the world today are many more than those about fifty years ago, most of the earth's surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer eaten by pests(害虫).The harvest is always good. Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just using a few computers. People are now largely vegetarians, and they eat only bread, vegetables, fruit and so on and they don't eat meat or fish. You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animals decreases. So people have to be vegetarians. We are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know how to deal with all kinds of illnesses. No one has to be ill any more. Such would be our life in 2060. 41. What will be on the moon in 2060 according to the passage? A. Many green plants. B. Many wild animals. C. Many interesting places. 42. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “irrigated”? A.冲刷 B.灌溉 C.淹没 43. Which of the following is TRUE? A. People only eat foods in pill form. B. People don't have plenty of crops. C. People run the farms by using high technology. 44. Why do people have to be vegetarians in 2060? A. Because they want to be healthier. B. Because vegetables can make the patients well.C. Because there will be more people and fewer animals. 45.What attitude(态度)does the writer have about the future life? A. He feels pretty hopeful about the future. B. He is not very satisfied with some things of the future. C. He seems really sad about what is happening in the future.
