    Which of the following statements can best be inferred from the passage?

    A. Fishes only "speak" to communicate with each other.

    B. Researches are now being made to study the significance of fish sounds.

    C. Sea animals have a sharper hearing ability than men.

    D. Sounds made by fish cannot be transmitted through the air.


    正确答案:B
    答案为 B。根据第一段第二至第五句, Actually, their talk may be as meaningful as much of our own.For example,some sea animals use their  "voices" to locate their food in the ocean expanses;others use their "voices" to let their fellows know of their locations;and still others,as a means of obtaining mates.Sometimes, "speaking" may even mean the difference between life and death to a sea animal.It appears in some cases that when a predator approaches,the prey depends on no more than the sounds it makes to escape 作出该项选择。选项 A中only不确切;选择 C和D在文中都没提到。

  • 第5题:

    When I opened the first "Body Shop" in 1976, what I wanted to do was to earn (挣) enough money to feed my children. Today the "Body Shop" is a great company growing fast all around the world. In the years since we began, I have learned a lot. Much of what I have learned will be found in this book, because I believe that we, as a company, have something worth saying about how to run a successful business without giving up what you really believe in.
    It's not an ordinary business book. It is not just about my life, either. The message is that to succeed in business you have to be different. Business can be fun, and can be run with love and do good. In business, as in life, I need to enjoy myself, to have a feeling of my family and to feel excited by something unusual. I have always wanted the people who work for the "Body Shop" to feel the same way.
    Now this book sends these ideas out into the world, and makes them public. I'd like to think there are no limits (界限) to our "family", and no limits to what can be done. I find that an exciting thought. I hope you do, too.

    What kind of person does the writer seem to be?

    A. She is mainly interested in making money.
    B. She thinks running a business a different job.
    C. She seems to be successful but unhappy.
    D. She seems to be someone with strong confidence.

  • 第16题:

    Do you have any idea what you would like to be and do after graduation? A lot of people don′! begin thinking about careers until they reach junior or senior year, which, in my opinion, is too late.
    When people are trying to decide what they want to do, it helps to know something they love. Ever since I was little, I′ve always been doing someone′s hair, make-up or nails, starting with Barbie dolls and progressing to humans. Over the years my family has really inspired me to do this and now I fix friends′ and family members′ hair for weddings, dances and other big events.
    I have been thinking about what I would like to do for a career since middle school. I did some research and discovered that I might really enjoy being a cosmetologist, so I went to my hair stylist and asked her lots of questions about what it takes to reach her level and what she would recommend I do. I considered her advice and then did more research.
    I used Aveda′ s website to get information on the Aveda Institute and what type of credit (贷款) I would need from high school to apply. I found their institute has three parts: theoretical knowledge, practical experience, and professional business-building skills. For the past few years, I have been looking at Aveda in more and more detail. This school not only offers cosmetology, but also massage therapy. I grew up in Minnesota (美国中北部的一个州), so I plan to apply to the institute in Minneapolis that several people have highly recommended. It helps students become "future industry leaders in hair care, skin care, makeup and total body wellness". It is affordable and everyone there is friendly and understanding.
    Having done the groundwork and thinking about what I′d like to do after high school, I know that I will definitely pursue my dream of becoming a cosmetologist.
    Why does the author think it′s too late for people to start thinking about careers in junior or senior year?

    A.Because he/she began to think about them when very young.
    B.Because many people are too old to learn.
    C.Because a lot of people can't grasp the opportunity.
    D.Because many people have little they love.

    答案:A
    解析:

I saw on the bulletin board that website design classes are going to be offered at the community center. I’m really interested in taking the classes. Is it O.K. that I don’t have a membership with the community center? I don’t really have much experience. in this type of thing though, so I hope there are different levels because I will probably need to be in the beginner class. I’m just a basic user.., you know, e-mail and the Internet is pretty much what I’m familiar with. I also didn’t see any class dates or times listed really hope the class will fit into my schedule. I know classes are usually free at the community center, but 1 didn’t see anything mentioned .about prices either, so can I assume that it’s free? I’m really interested in the class. My phone number is 289-2910. Or you can e-mail me at jtimbers@speednet.com. Thanks.
