　　The destruction of habitats (栖息地) all over the world is the primary reason species are becoming extinct (灭绝) or endangered. Houses, highways, dams, industrial buildings, and ever-spreading farms now dominate 21 formerly occupied by forests, deserts, and wetlands. 22 the beginning of European settlement in America, 23 , over 65, 000, 000 acres of wetlands have been drained. One million acres alone vanished 24 1985 and 1995.

　　Habitat destruction can be 25 or it can be subtle, occurring over a 26 period of time without being noticed. 27 such as sewage from cities and chemical runoff fromfarms, can change the 28 and quantity of water in streams and rivers.

[单选题]If there is one thing I'm sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers.It is not that newspapers are a necessity.Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio.Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday.But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.

　　The nature of what is news may change.What basically makes news is what affects our lives — the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same.I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though.It's already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic(基因) engineering.In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do — as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.

　　It's quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home.In fact, I'm pretty sure that how it will happen in the future.You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read — sports and international news, et C.

　　I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media(媒体).They actually feed off each other.Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn't happened

　　D.What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air.And as for the Internet, it's never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.

　　In the writer's opinion, in the future, _______.

　　Amore big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news

　　Bnewspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer

　　Cnewspapers will cover more scientific research

　　Dmore and more people will watch TV

[单选题]Scotland provides superb opportunities to enjoy wild and grand scenery which is even more impressive than the postcards suggest.It also offers towns and cities with a rich cultural life, a good mix of accommodation and places to eat and drink.Friendly and welcoming, it is an interesting and colorful all-season destination, where landscapes and the environment, sport and leisure pursuits, heritage and history, culture and cuisine are all part of a rewarding experience.

　　The best reason for choosing to go on holiday to Scotland is: one of the last places inside the crowded and frenetic European Union where it is possible to be alone isolated countryside.This is not to say that Scotland, like everywhere else, does not have its tourist traps, its crowded roads or its popular beauty spots.But it is relatively easy to escape from them.

　　It would be a mistake to think that Scotland is merely an extension of England.

　　Indeed, no attitude is capable of causing greater offence to the Scots.They successfully resisted English attempts at domination for seven hundred years, and many differences between the two countries persist.

　　Scotland's history, embodied in its castles, battlefields, and ancient links with France, Flanders and Scandinavia, is special.

　　Scotland is _____.

　　Afull of lively towns and cities

　　Bsimilar to many other countries in Europe

　　Cas impressive as postcards suggest

　　Dgood for sports

　　参考答案：A

[单选题]Americans are well known for the strange diets they always seem to be following. It seems that Americans like to diet almost as much as they like to eat. New types of diet plans are always coming out. Usually, though, they don't stay popular for long.

　　There are many diets on the market. It is often difficult to know which ones really work. It's also hard to believe how fast a dieter is supposed to shed pounds. A lot has been written about dieting. And some interesting facts about diets and foods have been discovered.

　　For example, did you know that the more celery you eat, the more weight you will lose? Celery has “negative” calories. The body burns up more calories digesting a piece of celery than there are in the celery stick itself.

　　Dieters shun potatoes because they think they are fattening. But they aren't. A potato has about the same number of calories as an apple. To gain a single pound, you would have to eat eleven pounds of potatoes !

　　Some dieters even worry about getting fat from licking postage stamps. But they have nothing to worry about. The glue on an average stamp has only about one-tenth of a calorie. Maybe a diet of post- age stamps would be popular?

　　One could conclude from this passage that______.

　　Adieting is not a healthy practice

　　Beveryone diets

　　Cthere is only one good way to lose weight

　　Ddieting can be confusing

　　参考答案：D
