【題目】There are nearly 400 different types of sharks, but only about 30 types have even been reported as attacking human beings.

The chances of being attacked by a shark are very small compared to other dangers. Many more people drown(溺死)in the ocean every year than are bitten by sharks. The low number of attacks that happen every year proves that sharks do not feed on humans if they have the choice. There are three types of shark attacks. The main one is known as a ‘hit and run’. The shark attacks because it thinks you are a fish, but when it tastes a human it decides not to eat you. The second type is called a ‘bump and bite’. The shark bumps you to find out if you are fit to be eaten and then bites you if it thinks you are. The third type is called a ‘sneak’. When attacking in this way, the shark waits for you to swim by and attacks you suddenly. The latter(后者的)two types of attack are more likely to be deadly for humans.

However, your chances of being attacked by a shark can be reduced if you follow the advice below.

Do not swim in the dark. Sharks can still see you but you cannot see them.

Do not swim if you are cut or if you have a fresh wound. Sharks can smell blood over a long distance.

Do not wear bright clothing or jewellery because sharks are attracted to colours and shiny objects.

Try and stay in groups, as sharks usually avoid large numbers of people.

Don’t be frightened(受驚嚇)by sharks as there is 30 times greater chance of being hit by lightning than being attacked by a shark.

1Are there only 30 types of sharks in the world?

2Are the chances of being attacked by a shark small or big compared to other dangers?

3What are the two deadly shark attacks called?

4Why should you try and stay in groups to avoid the shark attack?

5What does the writer mainly tell us in the passage?

【答案】

1No. / No, there aren’t.

2Small

3‘Bump and bite’ and ‘sneak’.

4Because sharks usually avoid large numbers of people.

【題目】Dear President,

Remember the boy who was picked up by the ambulance (急救車) in Syria? Can you please go to get him and bring him to our home?

Park in the driveway or on the street and we will be waiting for you guys with flags, flowers, and balloons. We will give him a family and he will be our brother. Catherine, my little sister, will be collecting butterflies and fireflies for him.

In my school, I have a friend from Syria, Omar, and I will introduce him to Omar. We can all play together. We can invite him to birthday parties and he will teach us another language. We can teach him English too, just like my friend Aoto from Japan.

Please tell him that his brother will be Alex who is a very kind boy, just like him. Since he won’t bring toys and doesn’t have toys, Catherine will share her big blue stripy white bunny (a word for a rabbit, used especially by or to children). And I will share my bike and I will teach him how to ride it. I will teach him additions and subtractions (加減法) in math. And he can try on Catherine’s favourite watch, which she doesn’t let anyone touch.

Thank you very much! I can’t wait for you to come!

【題目】 One of the biggest street parties in the world took over London recently.

The Notting Hill Carnival (嘉年華), which took place from August 28th to 29th, is regarded as the largest street party in Europe.

But in these troubled times – with terrorist attacks and religious ( 宗 教 ) anger on the front page of newspapers – is it suitable to spend the weekend dancing in the streets without a care in the world?

Right now, ―People must stand up for themselves, said Patrick Bulllock, 53, an artist who builds floats (花車) for the parade (游行) each year. ―The smiles and dancing do not stop all weekend – the spirit of the carnival can’t be broken.

The festival, now in its 50th year, started in 1966. But it was much smaller – around 1,000 people attended – and began as a way to bring together the different groups who called London’s Notting Hill their home.

Creator Rhaune Laslett, herself half Native American, half Russian, had the idea for the first gathering after having a vision. ―I could see the streets full of people in brightly colored costumes, they were dancing and following bands and they were happy, she told the Caribbean Times in 1989. ―Men, women, children, black, white, brown, all laughing.

During a period of racial tension (種族沖突), Laslett believed that music and laughter could bring together the different nationalities in her west London neighborhood.

“We felt that although West Indians, Africans, Irish and many other nationalities all live in a very small area, there is very little communication between us,” she explained in an interview in 1966, shortly after the first carnival took place.

Over the years, the party has grown into its modern day form.

"Our participants find themselves in a space of music, color and creativity which brings about the emotion of joy and encourages the freedom to express themselves," said Debora, Alleyne De Gazon, the carnival’s creative director.

However, not everyone wants to join in. "I can’t go out from my door on that day with all the rubbish around," said Fortuoso Cruz, who lives in London.

But when a million people come together for a weekend of eating, laughter and music – forgetting about life’s troubles for 48 hours – perhaps a little rubbish is a price worth paying.

1When did the Notting Hill Carnival start?

A.In 1989.B.In 1978.C.In 1966.D.In 1950.

2What was Rhaune Laslett’s original purpose when she created the carnival?

A.To show off the neighborhood’s music and dancing.

B.To invite people around the world to have a great party.

C.To encourage people to show their creativity in the street.

D.To allow people in the neighborhood to communicate more.

3How does Fortuoso Cruz think of the carnival?

A.It has caused him a lot of trouble.B.It should be canceled immediately.

C.It has brought a lot of fun to his life.D.More people should be invited to take part in it.

4Which word best describes the author’s attitude toward the carnival?

A.Refused.B.Supportive.C.Complaining.D.Disappointed.
