22、 By the 1970s, the Olympic Marathon had come a long way from the dusty roads of Athens. Yet women were still not allowed to compete and the struggle to establish a women’s Olympic Marathon was itself something of a long-distance race.
Women had been excluded from long-distance running until 1928, when the typical long race was the 800 meters. The women competitors hadn’t properly prepared for the race and several fell down and became temporarily unconscious due to extreme tiredness. This led Olympic organizers in 1928 to consider the marathon too violent for women.
This is not to say there was no tradition of women’s long-distance running. Women had been prohibited from participating in the ancient Olympics by the cruel law. But women in ancient Greece held their own festival to honor the goddess Hera every five years. Only one athletic event was held — a running race.
When the Olympics were revived in 1896, women were again excluded. However, in 1967, women’s ability in running attracted great attention. Number 261 in the Boston Marathon was given to K V. Switzer. Not until two miles into the race did officials realize that Switzer was a woman. Race officials tried to catch Switzer and remove her from the race but her teammates fended them off with body blocks. And Switzer wasn’t scared by officials’ aggressive actions. She kept running. Although the running was demanding, Switzer didn’t give up and eventually finished the race. Switzers story made the quest for equality in long-distance running for women a political issue. Slowly, the rules did begin to change.
The first women’s marathon officially agreed by the IAAF was the Tokyo International, held in 1979. IAAF president Adriaan Paulen watched the race. He was so impressed by the level of the competition that he announced he would fully support the effort to establish a women’s marathon in the Olympics. Soon the IAAF recommended to the IOC that a women’s marathon be included in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics. And the advice was adopted.
【1】What was the reason for women’s failing to attend the Olympic Marathon in 1928?
A.They generally weren’t enthusiastic about it.
B.They were thought not strong enough for it.
C.They weren’t supported by the public to attend it.
D.They were too tired to make full preparations for it.
【2】Which of the following can best replace the underlined word in Paragraph 3?
A.separated B.banned C.freed D.protected
【3】Which of the following best describe Switzer?
A.Brave and determined. B.Talented and kind.
C.Honest and easygoing. D.Optimistic and clever.
【4】What’s Adriaan Paulen’s contribution to women’s running?
A.Letting women have the right to compete against men in running.
B.Making a series of rules for women’s running.
C.Having trained many outstanding women runners.
D.Helping women be qualified for the Olympic Marathon.
23、Every year seals would crowd ashore in Farne Island and give birth to their pups. Between early October and early December, 1,500 seal pups will be born. Almost half of them will not make it past the first three weeks of life.
“The pups have to stay out of the water for the first three weeks, when they have their white coat, which is not very waterproof,” explains the warden (监察员)，who spends nine months on the Island.
“But when you’re born in November on a rock in the North Sea, it’s a tough start to life,” he said. Storms often wash young pups into the water. And occasionally, young, inexperienced mothers abandon their pups and head out to sea.
“We lost 41% last year,” said David Steel, the National Trust’s head warden on the Farne Islands. “Mother Nature certainly keeps them in check.”
Despite the early challenges for every newborn seal, the population is healthily and slowly and steadily growing. There are almost 4,000 seals on a set of islands, which is named a Special Area of Conservation(SAC), meaning it is protected under EU regulations. This successful human safeguarding of the seals’ habitat is huge turnaround(转机).
Just a few decades ago, the seal population was deliberately_____The animals used to be thought of as a threat to local fish stocks. During the late 1960s and 1970s, thousands of seals were shot in a cull(剔除)that aimed to protect the local fishing industry. According to the National Trust, between 1962 and 1983 approximately 2,000 adult females and 3,000 pups were shot.
But, as the fishing industry collapsed, it was gradually replaced by tourism. Today, several companies use fishing boats to take groups of people to visit the islands and admire the scenery, seabirds and, of course, the seals that make their homes in this bleakly beautiful place.
【1】In the first three weeks after they were born, almost half of the seal pups _______.
A. would be abandoned by their mothers
B. would be protected by the wardens
C. couldn’t live independently
D. would die mostly in the sea water.
【2】According to David Steel, death of so many pups________.
A. is a normal and natural phenomenon
B. is mainly caused by farmers’ killing
C. can be prevented efficiently by man
D. will be controlled by Mother Nature
【3】The underlined word “decimate” in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to ____.
A. increase B. kill C. reduce D. control
【4】What’s the best title for the passage?
A. The Beautiful Farne Island
B. A Tough Beginning
C. How to Protect Grey Seals
D. Tourism or Fishing Industry
24、We often say that intelligence means being able to solve problems. Some animals seem able to do this. For example, dogs and cats often find their way home from long distances. To do this they have to use their intelligence. They have to remember and think. But many birds find their way over long distances, too. They travel thousands of miles every year when they move from cold to warm countries. We do not know how they do this but we know that they do not use their intelligence. They do not remember places and directions and then make decisions. Young birds are able to make these journeys without help as soon as they can fly. They are born with this ability. This is not intelligence. We call this "instinct".
Often we cannot be sure whether an animal is acting intelligently or insrinctively. When a dog hears a strange noise, it barks. This is instinct. It cannot stop itself from doing this. It does not really know why it is doing this. But supposing a noise is on fire and the dog barks outside its master's bedroom until he wakes up. Is the dog using its intelligence? Is it solving the problem by waking its master or is it simply barking instinctively because it is afraid? Often we cannot be sure.
Many animals, however, can be taught to solve problems, especially when they are given rewards. Rats have been taught to touch a key to get food Animals in circuses （马戏团）have been taught to do all sorts of tricks to amuse the audience. In all these cases we may say that an animal is using intelligence. It is saying, "If I do this, I will get a reward. Therefore. I will do it.' This may be thought of as a low kind of intelligence.
【1】To find their way home from long distances, cats and dogs have to________.
A．use their instinct
B．use their intelligence
C．travel thousands of miles
D．get enough food
【2】Birds don't have intelligence because________.
A．they cannot find their way home
B．they don't remember places and directions and then make decisions
C．young birds arc able to fly
D．they cannot hear cold weather
【3】We say a dog is not using its intelligence when barking at a strange noise because________.
A．it cannot control itself
B．it knows how to bark when it has grown up
C．we are not sure of it
D．it stops people from getting into a house
【4】Animals in circuses do all sorts of tricks to amuse an audience because________.
A．they know how to speak
B．they like to do so
C．they know they will he rewarded
D．they are afraid of human beings

A．We are not sure whether birds use their instinct when they fly long distances.
B．Even young birds can travel long distances.
C．Animals know how to solve a problem if you teach them.
D．A rat is showing a low kind of intelligence when it touches a key to get food.
