三、阅读理解（每题2分，共60分）
If you were to walk up to Arthur Bonner and say, “ Hey, Butterfly Man,” his face would break into a smile. The title suits him. And he loves it.
Arthur Bonner works with the Palos Verdes blue butterfly, once thought to have died out. Today the butterfly is coming back — thanks to him. But years ago if you’d told him this was what he’d be doing someday, he would have laughed, “ You’re crazy.” As a boy, he used to be “ a little tough guy on the streets”. At age thirteen, he was caught by police stealing. At eighteen, he landed in prison for shooting a man.
“ I knew it had hury my mom,” Bonner said after he got out of prison. “ So I told myself I would not put my mom through that pain again.”
One day he met Professor Mattoni, who was working to rebuild the habitat for an endangered butterfly called El Segundo blue.
“ I saw the sign ‘ Butterfly Habitat’ and asked, ‘ How can you have a habitat when the butterflies can just fly away?’” Bonner recalls. “ Dr. Mattoni laughed and handed me a magnifying glass , ‘Look at the leaves.’ I could see all these caterpillars(蝴蝶的幼虫) on the plant. Dr Mattoni explained, ‘ Without the plant, there are no butterflies.’”
Weeks later, Bonner received a call from Dr. Mattoni, who told him there was a butterfly needed help. That was how he met the Palos Verdes blue. Since then he’s been working for four years to help bring the butterfly back. He grows astragalus, the only plant the butterfly eats. He collects butterflies and brings them into a lab to lay eggs. Then he puts new butterflies into the habitat.
The butterfly’s population, once almost zero, is now up to 900. For their work, Bonner and Dr. Mattoni receiced lots of awards. But for Bonner, he earned something more: he turned his life around.
For six years now Bonner has kept his promise to stay out of prison. While he’s bringing back the Palos Verdes blue, the butterfly has helped bring him back, too.
41. When he was young, Arthur Bonner _______.
A. broke the law and ended up in prison
B. was fond of shooting and hurt his mom
C. often laughed at people on the streeets
D. often caught butterflies and took them home
42. Bonner came to know the Palos Verdes blue after he _______.

Despite the road improvements of the turnpike era (1790-1830), Americans
continued as in colonial times to depend wherever possible on water routes for travel
and transportation. The larger rivers, especially the Mississippi and the Ohio, became
Line increasingly useful as steamboats grew in number and improved in design.
(5) River boats carried to New Orleans the corn and other crops of northwestern
farmers, the cotton and tobacco of southwestern planters. From New Orleans, ships
took the cargoes on to eastern seaports. Neither the farmers of the west nor the
merchants of the east were completely satisfied with this pattern of trade. Farmers
could get better prices for their crops if the alternative existed of sending them directly
(10)eastward to market, and merchants could sell larger quantities of their manufactured
goods if these could be transported more directly and more economically to the west.
New waterways were needed. Sectional jealousies and constitutional scruples stood
in the way of action by the federal government, and necessary expenditures were too
great for private enterprise. If extensive canals were to be dug, the job would be up to
(15)the various states.
New York was the first to act. It had the natural advantage of a comparatively level
route between the Hudson River and Lake Erie, through the only break in the entire
Appalachian Mountain chain. Yet the engineering tasks were imposing. The distance
was more than 350 miles, and there were ridges to cross and a wilderness of woods and
(20)swamps to penetrate. The Erie Canal, begun in 1817 and completed in 1825, was by far
the greatest construction job that Americans had ever undertaken. It quickly proved a
financial success as well. The prosperity of the Erie encouraged the state to enlarge its
canal system by building several branches.
(20) The range of the New York canal system was still further extended when the states
of Ohio and Indiana, inspired by the success of the Erie Canal, provided water
connections between Lake Erie and the Ohio River.
9.What does the passage suggest was the principal route for transporting crops to the east prior to 1825?
(A) River to road
(B) Canal to river
(C) River to ocean
(D) Road to canal
11.The word "alternative" in line 9 is closest in meaning to
(A) option
(B) transition
(C) intention
(D) authorization
12.The word "them" in line 9 refers to
(A) crops
(B) farmers
(C) prices
(D) merchants
14.According to the passage, where was the Erie Canal located?
(A) Between Ohio and Indiana
(B) Along the Appalachian Mountains
(C) Between Lake Erie and the Ohio River
(D) Across New York State
20.What does the paragraph following the passage probably discuss?
(A) Industry on Lake Erie
(B) Canals in Ohio and Indiana
(C) Sectional jealousies in Indiana and Ohio
(D) Travel on the Erie Canal4.
It is a Chinese traditional custom that people eat mooncakes at the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival. One 1 about it is almost 700 years old. In the 14th century, the Chinese planned a surprise attack against their enemies at the time of' the festival . The messages for the attack were put into cakes. The cakes were passed from one person to __2 __. Each person read the messages and knew when and where the attack would 3 . At last the Chinese won the victory.
Mooncakes are still eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival. However, the fillings of the mooncakes now are not messages, but foods such as meat, fruits and duck eggs. On the fifteenth day of the eighth month of each Chinese year, 4 and friends come together and enjoy the beautiful moon. Shops are crowded with people and the smell of mooncakes 5 the air. Many people go to a place where they can see the moon clearly. Large parks and the seaside are popular places. Once there, people have a picnic dinner, eat mooncakes and watch the moon rise.
Chicago, Illinois, is next to a big, beautiful lake, Lake Michigan. In the summer Lake Michigan is warm and blue. People lie on the beaches and swim in the water. In the winter Lake Michigan is cold and gray. Snow covers the beaches, and ice covers the water.
On a cold January day, a little boy and his father were playing in the snow on a Chicago beach. The boy was Jimmy. He was four years old. Jimmy was playing with a sled（雪橇）. He pushed the sled down a small hill. The sled went onto the ice of Lake Michigan. Jimmy ran after the sled. He ran onto the ice. Suddenly the ice broke, and Jimmy fell into the cold water. Jimmy’s father jumped into the water. He couldn’t find Jimmy. As minutes went by, he still couldn’t find Jimmy. “My kid is dead! My kid is dead!” he screamed.
Men from the Chicago Fire Department arrived. Twenty minutes later they found Jimmy and pulled him out of the water. Jimmy was not breathing, and his heart was not beating. He was dead. At the beach doctors worked on Jimmy for one hour. He began to breathe, and his heart began to beat again. The doctors rushed Jimmy to the hospital. Doctors at the hospital put Jimmy on a mattress（床垫) in bed because they wanted his body to warm up slowly. They gave him some medicine because they wanted him to sleep.
After eight days in the hospital, Jimmy woke up, but he couldn’t walk or talk. He stayed in the hospital for six weeks in all. Every day he got better. Then he went to another hospital. He stayed there for seven weeks. He began to walk, talk and play again.
Jimmy was in the water for over 20 minutes. He couldn’t breathe in the water. He couldn’t get any oxygen. But today he is alive and healthy. How is it possible?
Jimmy is alive because the water was ice cold. Usually the brain needs a lot of oxygen. But when it’s very cold, the brain slows down. It does not need much oxygen. So the cold water saved Jimmy. Jimmy’s father has another reason. He says, “Jimmy is alive today because he is a fighter. He is a strong little boy.”
1. Did Jimmy and his father play on the Chicago beach on a winter day or a summer day?
__________________________________________.
2. Why did Jimmy fall into the cold water?
_______________________________
3. Where did the doctors at the hospital put Jimmy in order to warm up his body?
__________________________________________.
4. What happened to Jimmy after he woke up in the hospital?
_____________________________________________.
5. What do you think of Jimmy?
He was ___________________________________.
