11．Suddenly screams echo through the forest as alarmed animals warn each other of a predator's （食肉動物） approach.Lying on my stomach with my camera in front of me，I've been watching a nearby stream for hours，waiting.This may be it!
Yes!A 380-pound lioness steps from the trees，heading towards the stream.She crouches （蹲伏） down to drink.She's only 50 yards away.She stands up and begins to walk towards me，not knowing I'm there.When she's just about 20 yards away，I move my camera slightly.I don't want to shock or panic her.She freezes for a moment，then take a crouching position and continues towards me.I'm thinking， "Uh-oh，I'm about to become cat food!" I've approached lions before，but now the lion approaches me.
If I stand up and yell，will she leave？Maybe not.If I stand up and run，will she chase me？Probably!So I decided to stay put.
The lioness comes closer.Now she's only about four yards from me—the closest distance that still allows me to focus my camera lens.Surprisingly，she lies down，posing like a statue in front of me.This makes me feel very small and humble（卑微的）.Then she rolls over and looks at me upside down!She seems a little puzzled and appears to be trying to figure me out —Hmm，are you suitable to be eaten？You don't look dangerous.
Breathe slowly，I remind myself，with my heart beating fast.I carefully back up my tripod （三腳架） just a bit to focus and shoot the picture.Suddenly，she leaps up.In a flash，she runs away，leaving me overwhelmed with emotion.
Getting this photograph took a long time.I spent two years waiting for a permit to track the extremely rare Asiatic lions in the Gir Forest of India and spent three months on foot searching for jye.aim.The experience felt like a gift from the forest.
（1）After coming close to the author，the lioness.

C．He makes great efforts to get the photograph.
D．He congratulates himself upon his narrow escape.
（3）The underlined words stay put in Paragraph 3 probably mean.

C．stay still
D．put off組卷：1難度：0.5 -
12．If Confucius were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake，there would be a lot of candles.He'd need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.
While many people in China will remember Confucius on this special day，few people in the United States will remember jye.ai.It's nothing personal.Most Americans don't even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.
But this doesn't mean that Americans don't care about Confucius.In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.
In the past three decades，the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities.More recently，the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes（學院）in more than 80 countries.These schools teach both Chinese language and culture.The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art，history and philosophy.Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should make full use of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the disadvantages of Western philosophy.Students in the United States，at the same time，are racing to learn Chinese.So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States.Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.
So the old thinker's ideas are still alive and well.
Today China attracts the West more than ever，and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.
As for the old thinker，he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West，even if his birthday is.
（1）The opening paragraph is mainly intended to.
A．provide some key facts about Confucius
B．attract the readers' interest in the subject
C．show great respect for the ancient thinker
D．prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations
（2）We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students.
A．have a great interest in studying Chinese
B．take an active part in Chinese competitions
C．try to get high scores in Chinese exams
D．fight for a chance to learn Chinese
（3）What is the best title for the passage？
A．Forgotten Wisdom in America.
B．Huge Fans of the Chinese Language.
C．Chinese Culture for Westerners.
D．Old Thinker with a Big Future.組卷：1引用：1難度：0.5 -
13．Silbo Gomero is an ancient language of whistle that enabled people to communicate across long distances before the invention of the telephone or the computer.It's now being revived on mountainous Canary Islands and the island of La Gomera，where the usual language is Spanish.
The Canary Islands government is providing funding to help school children on La Gomera to learn this ancient whistling language as part of their herjye.aiage.It sounds like birdsongs and was developed thousands of years ago by islanders to enable them to communicate up to two miles across La Gomera's valleys.
In the past，Silbo Gomero has been passed down from parent to child，but the islanders felt embarrassed at this form of communication when they came into contact with the outside world and modern technology.It started to die out when the telephone arrived and the island open to tourism.However，the government realized what was happening and decided to make sure that it would not be lost.So，since 1999 Silbo Gomero has been part of the school curriculum and now about 3，000 Gomero children spend at least 25 minutes a week learning it.This is enough time for the basics to be learned.
Probably originating in the Atlas Mountains of North Africa，the language was brought to the island by settlers 2，500 years ago.It was adapted to Spanish speech patterns，but uses tones rather than vowels and consonants （輔音）.These are whistled at different frequencies （頻率） to produce over 4，000 words，making proper conversations possible.
The importance of the language is growjye.aig.In 2003 the island held the first International Congress of Whistled Languages.Research is now being carried out in all places to which Gomerans have traditionally emigrated （移居國外） and where forms of the language survive.The Canary government's Historical Heritage Department hopes to attract outside support so that it will continue.
（1）According to the passage，which of the following is the reason for the disappearing of Silbo Gomero？
A．The limited vocabulary.
B．The arrival of modern technology.
C．Gomerans' traditional emigration.
D．Its complex speech patterns.
（2）What do we know about Silbo Gomero？
A．It originated in the island of La Gomero.
B．It was adapted to English speech pattern.
C．It was developed for long-distance communication.
D．It has more than 4，000 words made up of vowels and consonants.
（3）In order to save Silbo Gomero，.
A．the local government provides financial help
B．students spend 25 minutes daily learning it
C．the islanders begin to do research where it originated
D．the islanders frequently use it to communicate with the outside world
（4）What is the purpose of the text？
A．To call on people to protect cultural heritage.
B．To advertise for La Gomera.
C．To promote the use of Silbo Gomero.
D．To introduce the dying language Silbo Gomero.組卷：0引用：1難度：0.5

14．Small talk is the short conversations we have at parties，while we wait in line at the store，at family events or work.Sometimes we make small talk with people we already know but not well.Often we have to make small talk with complete strangers.（1）
.Here are some tips to improve your small-talking ability.
?（2）
If you have seen a really good movie or have read a really good book，you can talk about that.When you are sharing the same experience with someone，it's easy to start a conversation.You simply notice and comment on what's going on around you.For example，if you are at a party and a song comes on that you like or that reminds you of something，you can talk about that.
? Ask open-ended questions
These types of questions require more thought and more than a simple one-word answer.（3），the conversation will go on longer.
? Become a student
Nobody knows everything.So，as someone is answering one of your open-ended questions，they bring up something about which you know nothing.So，tell them!This lets the other person become the teacher.（4）.It's a win-win situation.
Like anything，getting good at making small talk takes practice.（5），you might become happier.If you are making small talk using English，you will most definitely improve your speaking and listening skills.
