【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
It's true that many dads in the wild aren't interested in parenting, but there are some that work pretty hard to give their little ones a good start. Maybe one of these dads will make you remember your own dad!
The male giant water bug doesn't seem to mind a heavy load on his back for his kids. The female puts about 100 to 150 eggs on the back of the male, and then she leaves. Once the female is gone, the male has to look after the eggs. It usually takes one to two weeks for the eggs to hatch. The father giant water bug jumps around to make sure the growing eggs get enough air and water. All this time he can't fly because of the weight of the eggs growing rapidly on his back.
Now let's turn to the male stickleback fish. When the mother leaves after laying her eggs, the father tends his young. If the young fish go too far away, their father helps with their safe return by carrying them back in his mouth. The male stickleback looks after all his young — as many as 100 — until they can live on their own.
A similar example can be found in emperor penguins living in cold areas. The male emperor penguin goes without food while looking after his egg until it hatches. For about 62 to 67 days, the egg stays on top of the father's feet, in very cold temperatures that drop down to -39° C. As a result, the father may lose nearly 50 percent of his body weight while waiting for his baby penguin to be born!
(1)What do we know about the giant water bug?
A.It is unable to fly.
B.The eggs grow on the father's back.
C.The male must keep still to hatch the eggs.
D.The female looks after her eggs together with the male.
(2)During the hatching period, the male emperor penguin _______________.
A.is unable to eat
B.is fed by the female
C.tries to lose some weight
D.can't stand the cold weather
(3)What is the best title for the text?
A.Mr. Moms in the Wild
B.Animals Do Have Feelings
C.Nature Loves Us like Our Dad
D.Childbirth in the Animal Kingdom

【答案】
(1)B
(2)A
(3)A
【解析】本文是一篇說明文,介紹了三種由雄性來照顧幼崽的動(dòng)物,一直照顧到幼崽能獨(dú)自生活。強(qiáng)調(diào)父愛的重要性。

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
Many Americans spend more time in cars these days than in the kitchen. But as lives grow busier—and waistlines grow larger—a number of health experts are calling for Americans to reduce their risk of cancer and other diseases by cooking at home more and eating out less.
“When dining out, people are likely to gravitate towards all the wrong thing,” says Rachel Brandeis of the American Dietetic Association. “People take in 50% more fat and sodium when they eat out than when they cook at home. And they often miss out on fruits, vegetables and other vitamin-rich ‘powerhouse foods' that may reduce the risk of cancer.”
Nutritionists know it's not easy to break old habits. Many people say they hardly have time to exercise, let alone fix dinner.
Brandeis says her secret is organization. She cooks six nights a week, even though she and her husband both work. She spends 20 minutes thinking about a week's worth of menus and writing a list. She shops just once a week. Brandeis says she chooses easy cooking methods, too. Since she is not quite good at cooking.
The American Institute for Cancer Research has produced a guide filled with tips like “Homemade for Health”. Melanie Polk, the institute's director of nutrition education, says cooking at home has many advantages. It teaches children about nutrition as well as the importance of sharing housework.
The 39-year-old homemaker Kirstin Kristinus of Washington, D.C. says cooking at home brings her family together. She also tries to reduce her family's cancer risk by preparing every meal with many different kinds of food.
“The only way to know that you are getting all the good things is to expose yourself to a wide variety of food,” says Steven Shiff, a doctor in New Jersey. “If you eat out at a restaurant, it's a lot easier to choose unhealthful things.”
However, “families don't have to give up restaurants,” Shiff says. “It is possible to eat healthfully if you eat outside the home. But it takes probably the same sort of planning that you would have to do to prepare meals at home.”
(1)What is worrying health experts?
A.Americans are having a too busy life.
B.Americans are getting fatter and fatter.
C.Americans are eating out more and more.
D.Americans are in greater danger of getting cancer.
(2)What does the underlined part “gravitate towards” in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Care about.
B.Forget about.
C.Be afraid of.
D.Be attracted to.
(3)What is Melanie's attitude towards cooking at home?
A.Unclear.
B.Positive.
C.Worried.
D.Doubtful.
(4)What can infer from Shiff that_____.
A.eating out can be as healthy as at home
B.People should stop going to restaurants
C.Restaurants usually serve unhealthy food
D.Preparing meals at home is more meaningful

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
On a Sunday morning, I was driving down a road and saw something I couldn't believe. A little girl, less than two, was pushing her stroller (嬰兒車) across the road. It was Sunday morning and traffic was not heavy.
I stopped my car at once and ran toward her. This little girl knew enough to run from a stranger. I tried to catch her in order that I could get her out of the road.
Suddenly her father came running down a hill across the road from where I had parked my car. He ran right to her and caught her up, saying “bad girl” to her. I picked up the stroller and gave it to him. The father grabbed the stroller and walked toward where he came from without a word.
I went back and sat in my car for a few minutes with my son. My hands were shaking and tears were about to run out of my eyes. “Do you feel cold, Mom?” asked my son. I just shook my head.
After this happened, I thought about how thankful I am. Even though the father didn't say thank you, I feel that I did something good. Doing something for someone else is pleasing, even when it's only a matter of being in the right place at the right time.
I didn't really “save” her, but I feel like it was important that I happened to be there. It is sad that I was the only one who stopped. It really made me a little disappointed that no one else stopped to help.
(1)When the author saw the little girl, ________.
A.the girl had lost her way
B.she was driving to work in a hurry
C.the girl feared to go across the road
D.there weren't many cars on the road
(2)The little girl ran away from the author because ________.
A.she wanted to stay on the road
B.she didn't know the author at all
C.she wanted to look for her father
D.she needed to catch her stroller
(3)The author thought that her help was ________.
A.really necessary
B.worth praising
C.not welcome
D.not useful
(4)What can we learn from the passage?
A.The girl's father didn't like the girl at all.
B.The girl's father had wanted to thank the author.
C.The author shared her experience with her son.
D.The author felt sad that no one else helped the girl.
