D

Wolves are in the news these days, especially with the controversial(有争议的)Alaskan Wolf Hunting Festival being a focus of public attention. Since these animals are getting more attention in the outer world, they may be more likely to show up in your inner world and may take on many forms and have many meanings.

Wolves live in a pack(狼群)and they have a leader, a guide who is responsible for directing the pack and keeping it safe. If a wolf appears in your dream and you have a positive relationship with the wolf, it may suggest your own leadership abilities. Wolves in dreams may also mean the need for trusting your own internal leader-the soft howl from the bottom of your own heart.

While wolves certainly do howl, it is till unknown why they howl at the moon. The wolf’s how is actually a form of communication. Wolves may howl as a form of making friends, or as a warning, or to indicate that they are last and need help. Is your dream wolf howling? If so, what emotions exist in the dream? Do you feel lost and in need of guidance, do you feel like you’ve lost your “pack”? Do you feel the need to let others know they are crossing your land? Or are you simply filled whit a sense of joy that can only be expressed in a howl?

Wolves can be experienced hunters, and often appear in folk stories as something harmless when in fact it is there to do great harm. Are there any wolves in sheep’s clothing in your life? Often we have intuition(直觉)about people or situations, feelings that these people or situations should be avoided, but we ignore them based on their harmless outer appearance. Wolves in dreams could be signs that there are hidden dangers in your life. Never ignore your intuition because it doesn’t make any sense. Your intuition exists to guide and protect you and it can discover a wolf  long before it removes its woolen suit.

53.Why does the author mention “Alaskan Wolf Hunting Festival” in the first paragraph?

       A.to support the main idea of the text           B.to introduce the topic of the passage

       C.to show his pity for the wolves               D.to prove wolves are getting more attention

54.What does “your inner world” refer to in the first paragraph?

       A.hearts          B.feelings          C.thoughts      D.dreams

55.According to the text, wolves howl for the following reasons EXCETP       .

       A.to communicate with other wolves B.to ask for help

       C.to share how they feel             D.to admire the moon

When we talk about a bad man, we like to call him a “wolf”. But is it really true that the wolf stands for devil and ugliness?

The wolves also have great self-respect and won’t   47   to anyone. The writer, who wrote the book The Wolf Totem,  48   stole a one-month-old baby wolf and raised it very carefully.

Peter and his seven-year-old sister ,Kate , were at the same school. Not long after his tenth birthday Peter was entrusted to take her to school.
It was only two stops down the road , but the way his parents kept going on about it , you might have thought Peter was taking Kate to the North Pole . He was given instructions the night before. When he woke up , he had to listen to them over and over again. He was to keep hold of Kate’s hand at all times , sit close to the front nearest the window , and tell the bus driver the name of his stop.
Peter repeated all this back to his mother and set out for the bus stop with his sister. They held hands all the way. Actually he didn’t mind this but simply hoped that none of his friends would see him holding a girl’s hand. The bus came. They got on and sat close to the front. It was ridiculous sitting there holding hands and there were some boys from school there, so they let go of each other.
Peter was feeling proud of himself. He could take care of his sister anywhere. If they were alone tighter on a mountain pass and came face to face with a pack of hungry wolves, he could know exactly what to do. Taking care and not to make sudden movement, he would move away with Kate until they had their backs to a large rock. That way the wolves would not be able to surround them.
Then he takes from his pocket two important things—his hunting knife and a box of matches. He takes the knife from its sheath(鞘) and sets it down on the grass, ready in case the wolves attack. They’re coming close now. They’re so hungry and are watering and growling (咆哮). Kate is crying, but he cannot comfort her. He knows he has to concentrate on his plan. Right at their feet are some dry leaves and twigs. Quickly and skillfully, Peter gathers them into a small pile. The wolves are edging closer. He has to get this right. There’s only one match left in the box. He bends down, cups his hand and lights the match. There’s strong rush of wind. The flame flickers, but Peter holds it close to the pile and then first one leaf, then another, then the end of a twig catch fire, and soon the little pile is burning. He piles on more leaves and twigs and larger sticks. The wolves are backing off. Wild animals are terrified of fire. The flames are leaping higher and the wind is carrying the smoke right into their jaws. Now Peter takes holds of the hunting knife and …
Ridiculous! A daydream like this could make him miss his stop if he wasn’t careful. The bus had come to a halt. The kids from his school were already getting off. Peter leaped to his feet and just managed to jump to the pavement as the bus was starting off again. It was more than fifty yards down the road when he realized he had forgotten something. Was it his backpack ? No. It was his sister. He had saved her from the wolves and left her sitting there. For a moment, he couldn’t move. He stood watching the bus pull away up the road. “Come back,” he murmured, “Come back.”

A.d-b-f-c-a-e-gB.d-b-a-f-c-g-eC.B-f-a-g-c-e-dD.A-g-b-c-f-e-d

第一节阅读理解(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)

阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Valentine’s Day has its origins in the ancient Roman feast of Lupercalia, a yearly festival held on Feb. 15 to help keep dangerous wolves away from townspeople and their crops. On the eve of the festival, Feb. 14, the young women of the town would write their names on small pieces of paper, put them in a jar, and every young man would pick out a name at random. The pair would then be partners for the rest of the festival.

It was 270 B.C. when St. Valentine stood up for love, after Roman Emperor Claudius II forbade Roman soldiers to get engaged or married, believing that married men would rather stay at home than go to war. The priest named Valentine, in defiance(对抗) of Claudius’ orders, secretly married young couples, and on Feb. 14, was punished for his “crime”, thereby becoming the patron saint(守护神) of lovers.

Besides this story, there are some old beliefs about this day:

During the Middle Ages, Europeans believed that birds chose their mates each year on Feb. 14.

Some people used to believe that if a woman saw a robin fly overhead on Valentine’s Day, it meant she would marry a sailor; if she saw a sparrow, she’d marry a millionaire.

If you cut an apple in half and count how many seeds are inside, you will know how many children you will have.

And some charming Valentine’s Day Customs.

In Wales, wooden love spoons were carved and given as gifts on Feb. 14.

Heart, keys and keyholes were favorite decorations, which meant “you unlock my heart!”

In the Middle Ages, young men and women drew names from a bowl to see who their valentines would be. They’d wear these names on their sleeves for one week—hence the term “to wear your heart on your sleeve”.

41.According to the story, Valentine was originally the name of a ________.

A. lover     B. priest     C. ruler     D. feast

42.   The Roman emperor forbade soldiers to get married because he thought        .

A. married soldiers are not loyal to the country

B. married soldiers are less willing to fight

C. there was no time for soldiers to get married

D. marriage is a crime

43. Why was the priest punished?

He didn’t join the army.

He helped people escape from being sent to the battle field.

He married couples despite the prohibition from the ruler.

He openly defied the ruler’s order to end his marriage.

44. Which of the following statement is NOT true according to the passage?

Feb. 14 and 15 were originally a time for keeping wolves.

People used to believe that birds chose mates on Valentine’s Day.

People believed that the birds they saw on Valentine’s Day predicted what         kind of person they would marry.

D. The Welsh used to give out wooden spoons on Feb.14.

45. If you wear your heart on your sleeve, you _________________.

A. openly express your feelings or emotions to others.

B. hardly take your feelings or emotions very seriously.

C. officially announce that you have been married

D. proudly show your choice of sleeve pattern
