They prefer to eat without having to do too much work. When resting in the shade they are also watching the sky to see what is flying by and even in the heat of the day they will suddenly start up and run a mile across the plains to find out what is going on. If another animal has made a kill they will drive it off and take the kill for themselves. A grown lion can easily eat 60 pounds of meat at a single feeding. Often they eat until it seems painful for them to lie down. The lionesses 母狮 being thinner and faster are better hunters 猎手 than the males 雄狮. But the males don„t mind. After the kill they move in and take the best share. Most kills are made at night or just before daybreak. We have seen many many daylight attempts but only ten kills. Roughly It„s about twenty daytime attempts for one kill. When lions are hiding for an attack by a water hole they wait patiently and can charge at any second. The kill is the exciting moment in the day-to-day life of the lion since these great animals spend most of their time about 20 hours a day sleeping and resting. Lions are social cats and when they are having a rest they love to touch each other. After drinking at a water hole a lioness rests her head on another„s back. When walking young lions often touch faces with older ones an act of close ties imong members of the group. 1.

But back then he was the one always made fun of in school gym classes in Devonshire England. It was a mountain bike he received for his 15th birthday that changed him. At first he went biking alone in a nearby forest. Then he began to ride the bike along with a runner friend. Gradually Saunders set up his mind on building up his body increasing his speed and strength. At the age of 18 he ran his first marathon. The following year he met John Ridgway and was hired as an instructor at Ridgway„s school of adventure in Scotland where he learnt about Ridgway„s cold-water exploits.

But there are a few people who will get into their cars and go straight for the center of the storm. These people are willing to risk being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up. ―Storm chasing‖ is becoming an increasingly popular hobby especially in the Midwest of the United States where there are frequent storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by checking the Internet for the latest weather reports and then drives up to 1000 kilometers to where the storm will be and waits for it to develop. Although anyone can do it storm chasing is extremely dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you are a beginner it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season. Even then storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement . ―Storm chasing is 95 driving‖ says Daniel Lynch who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. ―Sometimes you can sit around for hours waiting for something to happen and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers.‖ However for storm chasers it is all worth it. ―When you get close to a storm it is the most exciting sight you will ever see in your life‖ says Jasper Morley. ―Every storm is an example of the power of nature. It is the greatest show on Earth.‖ 9. For storm chasing the first thing storm chasers do is to . A. head straight for the center of the storm B. get into the car for safety C. wait patiently for the storm to develop D. collect information about a coming storm 10. Beginners of storm chasing are advised . A. not to drive in a heavy rain B. to do it in an organized way C. not to get too close to a storm D. to spend more time on it in summer 11. By saying ―it is all worth it‖ in the last paragraph the author means that . A. storm chasing costs a lot of money B. storm chasing is worth hours of waiting C. efforts in storm chasing are well paid D. a storm presents the greatest show on Earth 12. What can we learn from the text A. Sometimes storm chasers get nothing but disappointment B. Many storm chasers get killed in the storms. C. Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world/ D. Storm chasing is only fit for young people. 42004 D Houston TexasJune 8 2002 — In 2004 the National Aeronautics and Space AdministrationNASA will send two robots to separate places of Mars to seek out past or present signs of water. It is an exciting idea to send two robots driving over very different places of Mars at the same time to be able to see what is on the other side of the hill. Last month NASA announced it was sending one robot to Mars but after two weeks it decided there was enough money for two. The robots will be sent up within two weeks of each other in May and June of 2003 from Kennedy Space Center. If all goes well the two spacecraft will touch down on Mars after a seven-and-a-half-month space flight on January 2 and 20 2004. The robots each weighing 150 kilograms can cover 100 meters per day. They are designed to be able to examine the mineral content of the soil and their special camera will take pictures of the lands and hills. Although they will be under control from Earth the robots are able to move more freely compared to those sent up before them. The actual landing points have not been determined yet but the scientists say it will be in areas where they hope to find water. 13. According to the news report scientists plan to send robots up to Mars to ______. A. find out whether there is water on Mars B. see if robots can find minerals there C. test how fast robots can drive there D. prove that robots can work on Mars 14.

A. have changed the landing points many times B. hope to land the robots on the surface of water C. are still working on the plan D. know where they can find water 52004 B When Nancy Lublin received 5000 from her grandfather in 1996 she never once considered taking a vacation or paying off student loans. Instead the 24-year-old New York University law student began thinking about helping low-income women get better jobs. ―If a woman goes for a job interview poorly dressed she won„t get the job‖ Lublin says. ―But without a job she can„t afford suitable clothes.‖ So with the money Lublin founded ―Dress for Success‖ and began collecting women„s clothes which were still in good condition but which their owners no longer needed. ―So many women have clothes lying around that they will never wear again‖ one of Lublin„s assistants says ―Nancy„s idea is so simple and yet so important to women.‖ Many women come to Lublin„s office before going to a job interview.

Calls to the flower-shop were not helpful at all. After a while I stopped trying to discover the sender„s name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be.

Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I„d delivered during the winter. As a girl though I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy I had run into. One month before my graduation my father died. I felt so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation dance and I didn„t care if I had a new dress or not.
