第二部分：阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)

第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

      BEIJING (AFP) — Archeologists in China have uncovered more than 3，000 dinosaur footprints，state media reported，in an area said to be the world’s largest grouping of fossilized hones belonging to the ancient animals．

     The footprints，believed to be more than 100 million years old，were discovered after a three-month excavation(发掘、出土) at a gully in Zhucheng in the eastern province of Shandong，the Xinhua news agency reposed．   

     The footprints range from 10 to 80 centimeters (4 to 32 inches) in length，and belonged to at least six different kinds of dinosaurs，including tyrannosaurs，the report said Saturday．

     Wang Haijun，a senior engineer at the Chinese Academy of Sciences，said the footprints faced the same direction．Xinhua said．

     This indicated a possible migration or a panic escape by plant-eating dinosaurs after an attack by predators(食肉动物)，Wang added．

     Archeologists have found dinosaur fossils at some 30 sites in Zhucheng，known as“dinosaur city．”The region has seen two major digs since 1964，and experts say the discovery of so many dinosaurs in such a dense area could provide clues on how the animals became extinct millions of years ago．

     Plans are being made to set up a fossil park in the area．

36．We can infer from the text that_____．

      A．most of the footprints are more than 32 centimeters long

      B．the footprints found belong to some predators

      C．the dinosaurs were running in all directions because of an attack

      D．the area is considered to be a perfect tour source

37．Which statement below is true according to the passage above?

      A．The number of the footprints found is more than 3000．

      B．The dinosaurs may live in an age 10，000，000 years ago．

      C．The discovery of fossils may open a new age．

      D．Archeologists still wish to find some more fossils．

38．The passage may be picked out from_____．

     A．a magazine    B．a science book   C．a newspaper    D．a students’ textbook

I love exploring new places. Whether I travel across America or around the world，a new adventure is always waiting. What I don’t always enjoy is the time spent 9,000 meters（30,000 feet）in the air. Tight spaces, long hours, and unexpected-problems can make air travel stressful. Follow these six tips to make your next flight a braze.

    1. Make a checklist. Before you pack，make a checklist of everything you need and mark item off as you put them in your bag. Be sure you include important documents, such as your passport.

2. Pack light. You don’t need to pack your whole closet. Choose clothes that mix and match for more variety. Wear your largest shoes on the place to save room in your bag. And pack a few old items that you can leave behind to make more room for souvenirs(纪念品) on the way home.

3. Carry on essential （基本的）items. Unfortunately, dependable baggage service is hard to come by. When you fly, be sure to pack your medicine, important documents, and a change of clothes in your carry-on bag.

4. Pack water and snacks. No one wants to get stuck on a runway for hours without food, water. But bad weather or mechanical problems could leave you stranded（进退两难的）. Pack water and crackers in your carry-on. But leave fresh foods at home. Most countries won’t allow you to bring them across their borders.

5. Stretch your legs. More and more travelers suffer from blood clots caused by sitting too long in tight spaces. You can help prevent this problem by doing stretches in your seat taking short walks every hour.

6. Entertain yourself. A long trip can either mean hours of boredom or an exciting adventure. Plan ahead to keep yourself busy with books，magazines and portable CD player. Just don’t forget to bring extra batteries.

Research airlines before you book your reservations. For just a few dollars more，some airlines offer personal entertainment systems. Singapore Air gives you nearly 70 choices of movies，music channels, and other entertainment！

With a little planning ahead，you’ll be able to sit back and enjoy the ride.

68. It is advised by the writer in this passage to _____ for your flight.

A. pack all the things you will need    B. leave your important documents behind

C. carry some fresh foods with you    D. take some books, magazines and CD players

69. Which of the following tips isn’t mentioned in this passage？

A. Researching airlines before reservations.    B. Staying still during the whole flight.

C. Carrying some water and essential items.     D. Making a list of the things you need.

70. The underlined phrase “come by” in tip 3 probably means _____.

A. receive by chance    B. obtain by effort    C. pass by    D. offer in satisfaction

71. We can conclude from this passage that _____.

A. you will get sick during the long flight hours

B. old items are not allowed to bring back on the way home

C. you are not allowed to carry things as freely as you want

D. you can also board the plane without your passport
