Columbus and his men had to live on a small island for several months while they tried to repair their ship and return to Spain.At first, the local people on the island were very kind to the European visitors, giving them all the food and clothes they needed to survive. However, as the months passed, the local people became more and more unhappy with their guests, who were tricking and stealing from them. Finally the locals decided to stop helping. Without food or any way to leave the island, Columbuss group was soon in serious trouble.Luckily for Columbus, he had a book about the stars and planets on his ship. It described the movements of all the objects in the night sky. The book, written by a well-known German scientist, said there would be a total lunar eclipse(月食)and how long it would last.Columbus worked out the difference in time between Germany and North America. He then had a meeting with the local leaders just before the eclipse would take place. In this meeting, Columbus told them his god was angry because the local people were no longer giving food. So his god would take away the Moon to punish them. At the moment Columbus finished talking, just as he had planned, the Moon began disappearing.The local leaders grew frightened and quickly agreed to provide Columbus with food and anything else he wanted. But first, Columbuss god had to return the Moon. Columbus told them he would have to discuss the idea with his god on his ship. Knowing the Moon would stay completely hidden for about 48 minutes, Columbus returned just before the Moon began to reappear.

There are many relatives(親屬) in the whale family and they always live together with whales.Few people know dolphins(海豚) are part of the whale family. Dolphins are not fish. They are mammals(哺乳動物). They breathe air, and they have babies and feed them with milk. Dolphins are famous for their wonderful shows. They can jump high out of the water and show turns in the air. These jumps give the dolphins time to breathe.Porpoises(鼠海豚) are also in the whale family and are quite like dolphins. But they are different in the size and shape of the mouth. The dolphins mouth is long and thin, but the porpoises is short and thick. Dolphins are also more talkative than porpoises. Dolphins make sounds to talk with each other under water. But porpoises do not do this. Both of them are smart and friendly to humans.Not all the members of the whale family are friendly. Big whales are much easier to be angry than smaller dolphins or porpoises. An angry whale can be dangerous. Perhaps this helped to create the story of Moby Dick that sank (使下沉) a ship and made all the people on it die in the sea.（1）According to the passage, the porpoise .A . is a kind of mouseB . is friendly to humansC . is much bigger than the dolphinD . has a longer nose than the dolphin（2）What can we learn from the passage? A . Dolphins and porpoises have great differences in their habits.B . Whale families often like swimming and living in groups.C . Porpoises make sounds to communicate with one another under water.D . Dolphins jump high out of the water to have fun.（3）The underlined part Moby Dick in the last paragraph is probably .A . a shipB . a dolphinC . a porpoiseD . a whale（4）Which is the best title for the passage? A . Food that Whales EatB . Whales Eating HabitsC . Members of the Whale FamilyD . Differences Between Dolphins and Porpoises四、 任務(wù)型閱讀 (共1題；共5分)15. （5分）閱讀下面短文, 然后根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容補全答題卡上對應(yīng)表格中所缺失的信息，每空限1詞。The green car has become popular in recent years. A green car is an environment friendly car. Today, most cars are powered (驅(qū)動) by petrol (汽油). They make our life easier. But cars have also made problems for the environment.There are a few new types of cars that use no petrol or a little petrol.Electric cars：This kind of car uses a battery (電池) for power. When youre not driving it, just plug it in like a mobile phone to power up the battery. They dont make exhaust (排放物). But car makers still cant make a battery that lasts for more than a few hours. Thats why electric cars arent very popular.Fuel cell cars (燃料電池車) : Fuel cell cars use hydrogen (氫) and oxygen (氧) to make power. The only exhaust they produce is clean water. But fuel cell cars are still much too expensive to make.Solar cars : This kind of car has large panels (板) on the top that take power from the sunshine. The car holds that power in a battery. Solar cars might be the cleanest of all. But no one uses them, because solar panels cant get enough power from the sun to make a car go for a long time. Also, they are very slow.Hybrid cars（油電混合車）： This kind of car is the most exciting kind, because it is very clean and not too expensive. The hybrid car is very smart: Half the time, it uses petrol, and half the time it uses a battery. So, when the petrol engine is working, it puts some of its power back into the battery. It uses much less petrol than other cars. It also makes less pollution for the environment.New types ofcarsPowered byProblemsElectric carsa _The battery doesnt last for more than a few hours.Fuel cell carhydrogen and oxygenFuel cell cars are much too _to make.Solar cars_Solar panels cant get enough power from the sun to make a car go for a long time.
