【語篇解讀】 本文是一則寓言，通過一群老鼠開會想辦法除掉貓的故事說明：想出好辦法也許不難，但要實現就不那么容易了。
36．C 任何一只老鼠都害怕被貓“抓住(caught)”而不敢出去。
37．D 下文meeting room是提示：老鼠們決定要開一個“會(meeting)”來商討對策。
38．B 根據上文的for fear of以及下文的whose mother had become the cat’s food等可知老鼠們“處境危險(in danger)”。
39．A 從本空前內容可知：貓碰巧不在，所以全體老鼠就利用這點時間“趕緊(rushed)”聚到了一起。
40．C Let’s build a big trap是這只老鼠“建議(suggested)”的。
41．D 下文又有新的提議，可知第一個老鼠的建議被大家“拒絕(refused)”了。
42．B But這一轉折詞承接上文的建議——但是“沒人(nobody)”知道去哪里買毒藥。
43．A 由本空前“母親死于貓爪之下”推斷：一只小老鼠“咬牙切齒地(angrily)”說。
44．C 這里指會議沒有接受它的“提議(idea)”。
45．D 從下文它所提的建議以及受到的祝賀可知：它比其它老鼠要“聰明(wiser)”一些。下文的the wise mouse也是提示。
46．B 從本空后的be quiet判斷：它搖動著一只鈴鐺要大家“靜一靜(silence)”。
47．A 只要把鈴鐺拴在貓的尾巴上，就可以隨時知道它在“哪里(where)”。
48．C 有了這個鈴鐺做警報，老鼠們就有了逃離的“時間(time)”。
49．D 年老體弱的伙伴們也能來得及“躲藏(hide)”。
50．B 根據本空后congratulated判斷：聽到它這個好辦法后，大家伙“興高采烈(excited)”。
51．A 我們最好把鈴鐺拴牢一些，這樣它永遠都不會“掉下來(drop off)。”
52．C 尾巴上有了鈴鐺，它再也別想“躡手躡腳地(quietly)”走路了。
53．D 但是我們還得“決定(decide)”究竟派誰去拴這個鈴鐺。
54．B 由下文a more difficult matter判斷：沒有一只老鼠有足夠的“勇氣(brave)”把鈴鐺拴在貓尾巴上。
55．A 與本空后的difficult構成對比：想出好辦法很“容易(easy)”，但實現它就不那么容易了。

C
A long-awaited final report from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) concludes that foods from healthy cloned animals and their offspring(后代) are as safe as those from ordinary animals, effectively removing the last US regulatory(監管的) barrier to the marketing of meat and milk from cloned cattle, pigs and goats.
The 968-page final report, not yet released but obtained by The Washington Post, finds no evidence to support people’s concerns that food from clones may have hidden risks.
But, recognizing that a majority of consumers are wary of food from clones—and that cloning could damage the good image of American milk and meat—the report includes hundreds of pages of raw(原始的) data so that others can see how it came to its conclusions.
The report also admits that human health concerns are not the only subject raised by the coming-out of cloned farm animals.
“Moral, religious and ethical concerns have been raised,” the agency notes in a document accompanying the report. But the report is “exactly a science-based evaluation.” It reports, because the agency is not authorized by law to consider those subjects.
In practice, it will be years before foods from clones make their way to store shelves in large quantities, in part because the clones themselves are too valuable to kill for meat or milk. Instead, the expensive animals—replicas(復制品) of some of the finest farm animals ever born—will be used firstly as breeding stock to create what supporters say will be a new generation of superior farm animals.
When food from those animals hits the market, the public may yet have its say. FDA officials have said they do not expect to require food from clones to be labeled as such, but they may allow foods from ordinary animals to be labeled as not from clones.
64. What can we infer from the first paragraph?
A. FDA has waited for a long time to get this final report.
B. Products from cloned animals have been put into the market before.
C. People are having the products from cloned animals safely.
D. There have been once opposite opinions against cloned products.
65. What does the underlined word “wary” mean?
A. Disappointed. B. Careful. C. Fond. D. Proud.
66. It will be a few years before foods from clones come into the market, partly because _____.
A. people have little knowledge of the cloned animals
B. supporters can’t give powerful evidence to support that
C. the few cloned animals will first be used to create superior animals
D. they are a new generation for the customers and are too valuable for the customers
67. What can we conclude from the passage?
A. FDA officials encourage people to eat more food from clones.
B. FDA officials think the food from clones will sell better than ordinary food.
C. People only worry about the health problems when it comes to foods from the clones.
D. All the foods will not have detailed labels on them.

Now we are always hearing about road accidents and when we are in a car we try to drive carefully, })ut how many of tls take the same degree of care in our homes? Any large hospital will tell you the number of accidents that happen in the home is almost the same as those on the road. I don't pretend to be an expert, but I've thought a lot alx)ut how and why these accidents happen and what we can do to prevent them.
One of the commonest and most dangerous causes of home accidents is wrong and careless use of electrical equipment. People will continue to use a loose plug or pull out a plug (插頭) without first turning off the power. In spite of warnings, one will carry an electric heater (電爐) into the bathroom when be is going to have a bath. Sometimes one forgets to cut off the power before repairing a lamp or something else. All this will cause accidents. So the rule about anything that works by electricity is: Switch off before your touch anything and don' t pretend you know when you actually don't.
If you've got children in the house, it' s always best to keep medicines of any kind out of their reach. Otherwise, they may be taken for candies or a new kind of drink. When there are older people living with you, you have to take particular care in a number of ways in order to make them safe and happy.
Fire, of course, is always a risk. So, remember not to dry clothes in front of fires, or leave stoves in the middle of rooms where they can easily be knocked over. And don' t forget to keep the children away from fire. Smoking, tm, may cause fire. So you'd better give it up.
Safety first may mean a little more time and care, but it may save you a lot of trouble.
