Jenna, a popular girl from Westwood Middle School, had graduated first in her class and was

ready for new 16 in high school.17, high school was different. In the first week, Jenna went to tryouts(選拔賽)for cheerleaders(拉拉隊(duì)隊(duì)員). She was competing against very talented girls, and

she knew it would be 18 for her to be selected. Two hours later, the 19 read a list of the girls for a

second tryout. Her heart 20 as the list ended without her name. Feeling 21, she walked home carrying her schoolbag full of homework.

Arriving home, she started with math. She had always been a good math student, but now she was 22. She moved on to English and history, and was 23 to find that she didn’t have any trouble with those subjects. Feeling better, she decided not to 24 math for the time being.

The nest day Jenna went to see Mrs. Biden about being on the school 25. Mrs. Biden wasn’t as 26 as JennA．“I’m sorry, but we have enough 27 for the newspaper already. Come back next year and we’ll talk then.” Jenna smiled 28 and left. “Why is high school so 29?” she sighed.

Later in 30 class, Jenna devoted herself to figuring out the problems that had given her so much 31. By the end of class, she understood how to get them right. As she gathered her books, Jenna decided she’d continue to try to 32 at her new school. She wasn’t sure if she’d succeed, but she knew she had to 33. High school was just as her mom had said: “You will feel like a small fish in a big pond 34 a big fish in a small pond. The challenge is to become the 35 fish you can be.”

There are three separate sources of danger in supplying energy by nuclear power(原子能).

First, the radioactive material must travel from its place of production to the power station. Although the power stations themselves are strongly built, the containers used for the transport of the materials are not. Normally, only two methods of transport are in use, namely road or rail. Unfortunately, both of these may have an effect on the general public, since they are sure to pass near, or even through, heavily populated areas.

Second, there is the problem of waste. All nuclear power stations produce wastes that in most cases will remain radioactive for thousands of years. It is impossible to make these wastes nonradioactive, and so they must be stored in one of the inconvenient ways that scientists have invented. For example, they may be buried under the ground, or dropped into deserted mines, or sunk in the sea. However, these methods do not solve the problem, since an earthquake could easily break the containers.

Third, there may occur the danger of a leak(泄漏) or an explosion at the power station. As with the other two dangers, this is not very likely, so it does not provide a serious objection to the nuclear program. However, it can happen.Separately, these three types of dangers are not a great cause for worry. Taken together, though, the probability of disaster(災(zāi)難) is extremely high.

1.Which of the following is FALSE?

A.It is possible that a leak or an explosion occurs at a power station.

B.It is unusual for radioactive materials to be transported across land.

C.The containers are likely to be broken by an earthquake.

D.Nuclear wastes remain dangerous in most cases for many years. 

2.The author thinks that the ways to store nuclear wastes are ________.

A.easy      B.impossible         C.reasonable        D.ineffective 

3.What do we learn from the last paragraph?

A.The power station is a safe place.

B.The dangers of nuclear energy can be prevented.

C.The general public are strongly against the nuclear program.

By itself, none of the three dangers is very likely to cause much worry.

4.What is this passage about?

A.Uses of nuclear power.          B.Dangers from nuclear power.        

C.Public anger at nuclear power.  D.Accidents caused by nuclear power.

Get a reward for every bug you bring to live in new science museum exhibit.

In a city with trillions of American cockroaches(蟑螂), the Houston Museum of Natural Science has agreed to pay a quarter per bug－up to 1,000－as it seeks to populate a new insect exhibit alongside its Cockrell Butterfly Center.

Nancy Greig, the museum’s director insists the public payday for roaches isn’t just a marketing ploy(炒作).

“Absolutely, this wasn’t devised as a joke,” Greig said. “We needed more roaches for the exhibit, so I sent this message out to everyone in the museum asking people to bring them in. Well, someone decided to tell the press, and all hell has broken loose.”

“But we really do need cockroaches.”

“One might be forgiven for never considering how to catch a live cockroach. But it’s simple enough to fool them,” Greig said, “and even easier to catch them.” American cockroaches are the most common kind in Texas, measuring up to 2 inches long and invading homes.

Despite their less-than-attractive reputation, cockroaches actually aren’t that dirty. Greig even went so far as to call them “fastidious” saying they don’t enjoy rooting(用嘴拱食) in waste. They’re only dirty if, say, they used a sewer(下水道)line to gain access into a home.

The roaches collected by the museum will become part of a display in a new exhibit that showcases insects such as cockroaches, dung beetles and termites.

There’s more to like about roaches, too. They don’t bite, and they don’t carry diseases like a mosquito, so they’re generally safe to handle.

56．For what does the museum pay for cockroaches?

       A．For a marketing ploy.              B． It’s devised to make fun.

       C．People really need them.            D． For a new exhibit.

57．The underlined word “fastidious” probably means extremely ________.

       A．clean           B．dirty            C．unpleasant           D．fast  

58．What do we know about American roaches?

       A．It’s not easy for people in Houston to collect roaches.

       B．They all measure 2 inches and are often found in homes

       C．They don’t bite and they are free of disease.

       D．We have reasons to like them.

59．Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?

       A．The Houston Museum of Natural Science

       B．A new exhibit

       C．Quarters for cockroaches                       

       D．A cockroach is lovely
