Scientists examining Europe’s 435 butterfly species found that the populations of one in three species are falling and nine percent are already threatened with extinction. “For example, the Madeiran large white butterfly is seriously endangered, having not been seen on Madeira for at least 20 years,” International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) said. “Most butterflies at risk are in southern Europe,” said Annabelle Cuttelod, coordinator of the European Red List at IUCN. “Their main threat is habitat loss, most often caused by changes in agricultural practices. Climate change, forest fires and the expansion of tourism make the situation even worse.” Cutting trees has led to a decrease in the population of some beetle species that depend on decaying (腐烂的) wood. Known as saproxylic beetles（食腐甲虫）, they play an important role in ecosystems by recycling nutrients. Some 11 percent or 46 species of them are at risk of being lost from the region, while seven percent are threatened with extinction worldwide. “The main long-term threats to saproxylic beetles are habitat loss due to logging and the decrease in the number of mature trees,” said the IUCN. For dragonflies, it is the overuse of freshwater resources that is causing these species to drop in numbers. Five percent of dragonfly species are threatened with global extinction, while some 11 percent are considered to be threatened within Europe. “Increasingly hot and dry summers combined with overuse of water for drinking and agriculture are causing the dragonflies’ wetland habitats to dry up,” said the IUCN. 61. What is true for Europe’s butterfly species? A. The populations of more than 435 butterfly species are shrinking. B. About 40 butterfly species in Europe are in danger of dying out. C. Eastern Europe is in more danger of losing the butterfly species. D. The Madeiran large white butterfly has been living on Madeira for more than 20 years. 62. What is the main cause of habitat loss of butterflies in Europe? A. Climate change. B. Changes in agricultural practices. C. Environmental pollution. D. The expansion of tourism. 63. How many species of beetles feeding on decaying wood are threatened with extinction worldwide? A. About 7. B. About 11. C. About 15. D. About 29. 64. The main threat facing the dragonflies is _. A. the lack of fresh water resources B. the decreased number of mature trees C. agricultural practices D. the hot and dry weather 65. We may learn from the passage that _. A. European “Red List” has nothing to do with IUCN. B. dragonfly species are well protected in other parts of the world C. wildlife is generally well protected in Europe D. the disappearance of natural habitats is largely due to human activities B What’s your favorite type of music? Most people may prefer rock and roll, pop or jazz. These types are most publicized by television and the radio. Country music now would seem to mistakenly belong to the category of rock or pop. Publicity of this category started to drop only after the year 2000; however, it did have its peak years just before falling down. What people may not know is that this type of music inspired (促成) rock and roll especially with one of the most important figures in music history — Elvis Presley — who is known as the “King of Rock and Roll”. Elvis used to be very famous at a radio program which broadcast country music back in the late 1940’s. Country music is influenced by jazz and blues. Rock music too is influenced by jazz and blues but is also heavily influenced by country music so that they may even seem similar. Nowadays, country music is closely related to pop music due to artists’ preference and popular demand. Starting from the 1980’s it slowly divided itself into New and Old Country Music. Legends like Johnny Cash began to slip away because the new understanding of country music actually contains pop and his music just doesn’t fit the category. Fortunately, country music is still heavily promoted through websites and reviews. Certain types of music nowadays are linked with different age groups. Classical for the people in the mid 19th century, pop in the 1920’s, and then there’s country music. All these types continue to grow and modernize while still appealing to certain age groups. More modern country music tends to become different in their own ways which makes it even harder to identify them as country music while, again, remain appealing only to certain age groups. Active promoters of country music videos, however, seem to appeal to a large number of age groups especially those active in Australia. For as long as country music isn’t mixed with other types, it will eventually regain its charm as music for all ages. 66. It can be learned from the first paragraph that country music _ . A. is most publicized by television and the radio B. used to be liked by more people compared to jazz C. has become less popular since the year 2000 D. should be included in the category of rock or pop 67. What is the relationship between rock music and country music? A. Both types influenced the format ion of rock and roll. B. Presley turned pop music into country music. C. They are both influenced by jazz and blues. D. The use of the same instruments makes them sound similar. 68. Some legends of country music began to slip away because . A. their songs totally changed the style of country music B. they began to work on pop music for more profits C. there is no marketing space for country music anymore D. they can’t meet the popular demands on country music 69. What does the underlined word “promoted” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Criticized. B. Spread. C. Raised. D. Enjoyed. 70. The writer seems to believe that . A. country music should keep its own style to attract more listeners B. it’s necessary for country music to be mixed with other types C. only a certain age group of people will like country music in the future D. common characteristics can be found in all modern music C “A serious attack on the fantasy story for children comes from those who do not wish children to be frightened,” writes C.S. Lewis in an essay named Three Ways of Writing for Children. Those who say that children must not be frightened mean two things. Firstly, they mean that we mustn’t do anything likely to give children fears, and secondly, they want to keep out of their minds that they are born into a world of death, violence, wounds, good and evil (邪恶). C.S. Lewis says he agrees with the first reason, but not the second. He goes on to remark, “Since it is so likely that they will meet cruel enemies, let them at least hear of brave fighters and heroic courage. By limiting your child to perfect and nice stories of child life in which nothing alarming ever happens, they would fail to face fears and hardships.” “It would be nice,” he continues, “if no little boy in bed ever hears a frightening sound. But if he is to be frightened, I think St. George, or any bright hero in armor, is a better comfort than the idea of the police.” Bruno Bettelheim, a well-known child psychologist, also points out that fantasy stories provide children with a valuable education about good and evil. He believes that all children have many personal fantasies filled with fears and fantasy stories comfort them and offer solutions. Happy endings tell them that solutions and hope are real and model the kind of happy life children want to find. A good fantasy suggests rather than teaches possible answers to life. It’s believed that reading fantasies quickens the ability to get and put ideas from books to reality. It’s what good literature does — it makes life larger. 71. According to the first paragraph, C.S. Lewis thinks that _. A. children shouldn’t read any fantasy story because it is bad B. adults shouldn’t do things that may frighten their children C. death and badness should be kept out of children’s minds D. writing a fantasy story is the best way of writing for children 72. What probably is St. George according to the text? A. He is a policeman in real life. B. He is a murderer caught by the police. C. He is a brave man in a fantasy novel. D. He is a frightening person in a story. 73. Why should children read fantasy literature according to Bruno Bettelheim? A. Because it encourages children to have a lot of fantasies. B. Because it helps children overcome fears and find solutions. C. Because it teaches children to write their own fantasy stories. D. Because it gives children a happy memory when they grow up. 74. It can be inferred from the text that _. A. good literature can give readers more valuable stories B. fantasies can improve one’s ability to solve problems C. personal fantasies can help children get away from danger D. most children can understand what fantasy literature is 75. Which of the following features of fantasy literature does the author want to stress? A. It’s frightening but exciting. B. It’s interesting and attractive. C. It’s useless but enjoyable. D. It’s necessary and helpful. 第二卷 V. 单词拼写，根据提示写出单词，每空一词，注意单词形式。 (5%) 76. My mother never _ _(犹豫) to tell me when I look bad. 77.
