Alice in Wonderland
Chapter 2
Alice was not hurt, so she jumped to her feet in a moment. She looked up, and found the White
Rabbit was still in sight. She was close behind it when she turned the corner, but the Rabbit was
no longer to be seen. She found herself in a long, low hall.
There were doors all around the hall, but they were all locked.
Alice walked sadly down the middle, wondering how she was ever to get out again.
Suddenly, she came upon a little three-legged table. There was nothing on it but a tiny golden
key, and Alice’s first idea was that this might belong to one of the doors of the hall. But, alas! Either the locks were too large, or the key was too small. However, on the second
time round, she came upon a low curtain she had not noticed before and behind it was a little door.
She tried the little golden key in the lock, and she was pleased to find it fitted!

C.She wanted to find out how to get out again.

23.Where did Alice find the tiny golden key? ( )
A. B. C. D.
24.How did Alice feel when the golden key fitted into a lock? ( )
A.Tired. B.Shocked. C.Happy. D.Interested.

B.Some of the doors around the hall were locked.
C.Alice noticed the little door as soon as she entered the hall.

Most new babies were born in the developing countries. These countries are found in Africa,
South America and parts of Asia. In the developed countries of Europe and North America, the
population is growing very slowly. This is because women in these countries have, on average(平均),
only one or two children. In the developing countries, many women have five or more children. In
1950, about ① (四分之一) of the world’s population lived in the developed countries. By
2050, these countries will be home to only about one tenth of the world’s people.
②In the developing countries, more than one billion people are still living below the poverty(贫
困) line. These people do not have enough food to eat and they live in poor housing conditions.
Children get little time at school and suffer(遭受痛苦) from many kinds of diseases.
③At the beginning of the 21st century, the world’s population was around six billion. The
U.N. has said that the world’s population will level off(平稳下降) at 12.5 billion by the year 2100. Other groups think the world’s population will continue to grow, reaching 14 billion before
it becomes stable(稳定的), or even falls.
