Farmers do not like crows (乌鸦) because these birds eat newly-planted seeds (种子). They are afraid that they will not have anything left in autumn if the birds eat up all the seeds.

It is hard for farmers to get close enough to kill crows. Crows have very good eyes and good hearing. They are also very careful. While some are eating the newly-planted seeds, others sit on the tallest trees around the fields. "Caw-caw-caw," cries the first crow to see farmers coming. All the other "lookout" crows join in the crying and then, in no time at all, there is not a crow to be seen. Farmers have found several ways to kill crows. But it is good that there are still crows about. These birds are our friends. They pay for the seeds they eat by killing pests(害虫). One pest, for example, can eat up several plants in a few hours. With thousands of them at work in one night, we might find ourselves without food to eat. This is why we should not try to kill off the crow.

today we are sure that the mail will be sent every day to our door. But in the early days, no one could be sure about where--or when--the mail would arrive.

There is a stump (树桩) of a big tree in the state of Washington. It was once a "post office". Because people needed a place for the mail carrier(信使) to leave their letters, they found a tree at the cross of roads and cut it down ten feet from the ground. Then they hollowed it out and covered it with something. Inside, they put many boxes. Each box had a family's name on it. The mail carrier could leave letters there for everyone.

Even earlier, when there was no post services, people gave their letters to any traveler going in the right direction. Often they gave them to a traveling shoe maker. The traveler might stop in a small hotel and he would leave the letters there. But the letters stayed there until the person to re- ceive them happened to come by and stop at the y an airmail letter can travel across the world in much less time than that.

第二节短文理解l

农民不喜欢乌鸦,因为这些鸟会吃掉新种下的种子。他们担心如果乌鸦吃光了所有的种子,到秋天他们将一无所获。农民们很难接近乌鸦到足够杀死它们的距离。乌鸦有非常好的视力和听力并且非常谨慎小心。当一部分乌鸦在吃新种下的种子时,其他的乌鸦就蹲在田地周围最高的树上。只要一看到农民来了,乌鸦就会“呱呱呱”地叫起来。只要第一个叫了,其他望风的乌鸦也会一起叫起来,马上田地里就一只乌鸦也没有了。

农民们找到了一些杀死乌鸦的方法。但是有乌鸦存在还是有好处的。这些鸟儿是我们的朋友。它们会通过吃掉害虫来弥补吃下的种子。比如,一只害虫可以在几个小时内就吃光几株植物,那么上千只害虫一晚上吃下来,我们就没东西可吃了。这就是为什么我们不应该试图杀光乌鸦的原因。

56.B【精析】句意:根据本文作者,乌鸦只会给农民带来麻烦。是非题。从文章第三段第二句“But it is good that there are still CROWS about.”可以推断出,本题的判断是与原文不符。故选B。

57.A【精析】句意:农民们要杀死乌鸦并不容易。推断题。从文章第二段前三句“It is hard for farmers to get close enough to kill s have very good eyes and good are alsovery careful.”可以推断出本题是正确的。故选A。

58.C【精析】句意:农民们杀死害虫会获得报酬。是非题。文章第三段只是说乌鸦会通过杀死害虫来回报给农民它们吃掉的种子,但是没有说农民杀死害虫会获得报酬。题干说法文中并未提及,故选C。

59.B【精析】句意:直到现在,人们还没有找到杀死乌鸦的方法。是非题。文章第三段第一句“Farmers have found several ways to killcrows.”可以推断出,本题的判断与原文不符。故选B。

60.C【精析】句意:乌鸦晚上吃种子和害虫。推断题。从文章第一段和第三段我们知道乌鸦会吃种子和害虫,但是并没有指明是在晚上。故选C。

第三节短文理解2

玛拉要去她的朋友范妮家住三天。旅行前一周,她打电话告诉了范妮她的火车几点到站。范妮让她在火车站的西进站口等她。火车提前到站。玛拉对这个火车站不熟,所以她没有去西进站口而是去了北进站l:2等范妮。范妮从服务台得知火车已经到站了。她在西进站口附近找了一圈都找不到玛拉。她开始以为玛拉一定是错过了这趟火车。玛拉在北进站口等着,但没有看到范妮。她觉得范妮应该不会来接她了。于是她穿过马路,在对面的公交车站问了到范妮家所在的Market路的公交车。你可以想象范妮到家发现玛拉已经在和她母亲聊天时会有多惊讶。

61.B【精析】句意:玛拉是什么时候告诉范妮她乘坐的火车的?细节题。从文章第一段第二句“A week before her trip,she called Fan—ny to tell her when the train would arrive.”可以得出,玛拉是在旅行之前一周告诉范妮火车何时到达的。故选B。

62.B【精析】句意:为什么玛拉去了北进站口而不是西进站口?细节题。从文章第二段第二句“Mara didIl’t know the station verywell…”可以看出,玛拉是由于不了解火车站而走错的,故选B。

63.A【精析】句意:玛拉没有在火车站等范妮是因为——。细节题。从文章第四段第二句“She decided that Fanny was notcoming to meet her after all.”可以看出,玛拉没有在火车站等范妮是因为她觉得范妮不会来接她了,故选A。

64.C【精析】句意:在下火车后玛拉是如何到达Market路的?推断题。从文章第四段最后一句“So she walked across the road to the busstation and asked for the bus to Market Road,where Fanny lived"可知,玛拉去马路对面的公交车站问了到范妮家街道的公交车。因此,可以推断出玛拉是坐公交车到范妮家的。故选C。

65.A【精析】句意:范妮是在哪里和玛拉见面的?的'推断题。从文章最后一段“You can imagine how surprised Fanny was when she ar-rived home and found Mara already talking to her mother.”可以看出,范妮是回家发现玛拉已经到了她家后两人才见面的。故选A。

短文理解3:

现在我们确定信件每天都会被送到我们家门口。但是,在早期没有人能确定信件会在何时到达何地。在华盛顿州有一个大树桩。它曾经是一所“邮局”。由于人们需要一个地方来让信使们放信件,他们在十字路口找了一棵树,砍断后留下了10英尺高的树桩。人们将树桩中间掏空并用东西盖住。他们在树桩里面放了许多盒子,每个盒子上写着不同家庭的名字。信使可以将所有人的信件都留在树桩里。

在更早些时候,那时还没有邮递服务,人们将信件托给任何一个去相同方向的旅行者。他们经常把信件托付给旅行的鞋匠。旅行者可能会停留在一个小旅馆然后将信件留在那里。但是那些信件要在那里放着直到收信人碰巧经过并且停留在这个旅馆。

现在一封航空信件可以在更短的时间前往世界各地。并且你知道你的信件会在何时到达你想要它到达的地方。

66.B【精析】句意:这篇文章是关于什么的?主旨题。文章除首末段引入和结语外,主体的二、三两段都是关于早期邮递服务的,可以推断出,这篇文章是关于早期信件邮递的,故选B。

67.A【精析】句意:为什么人们会砍断那棵树?细节题。从文章第二段第二句“It Was once a‘post office’.”可知,人们砍断这棵树把它做成了一个“邮局”。故选A。

68.A【精析】句意:在“Then they hollowed it out…”这句话中“hollowedit out”是什么意思?词汇题。“hollowed it out”是挖空的意思,B项意为将树桩盖起来,C意为把它砍短。故选A。

69.C【精析】句意:在还没有邮政服务的时候是什么人充当信使的?细节题。从文章第三段第二句“0ften they gave them to a trave—ling shoe maker.”可以看出,人们会把信件托付给四处旅行做生意的鞋匠。故选C。

70.C【精析】句意:关于古代的邮政服务,我们了解了哪些?推理题。从文章第一段第二句“But in the early days,no one could be sureabout where—or when一the mail would arrive.”可推出C项符合。而文章第三段虽提到旅行者会将信件存放在旅馆直到收信人碰巧路过取走,但是并没有说旅馆提供邮政服务,故A项不符合文意;B项信件会被送到门口也在文中无法证实。故选c。
