[多选题]

One of my favorite places when I lived in Tokyo was the sushi bar in my neighborhood.

I'd take a seat, and the chef would prepare fish fresh from the market in central Tokyo. I liked sushi before I moved to Japan; now I love it.

I'm hardly alone, which is bad news for the world's oceans. Partly because more and more sushi is demanded, we're fast fishing out our seas. Some researchers estimate that if we don't change the way we harvest the oceans, all the commercial fisheries (捕鱼业) in the world could disappear as early as 2048. That could mean no more fish to buy in your local supermarket.

Fortunately, scientists are looking for ways to fish sustainably (可持续地). One method is a quota system that sets a limited amount to every fisherman or corporation who wants a share of the total catch for certain sea area. These catch shares get rid of the possibility to over fish.A recent study in Science found that the system can prevent fishery from dying and even make it better over time. "It's truly a win-win situation," says Steven Gaines, a marine biologist at the University of California at Santa Barbara and one of the study's co-authors.

Consumers also can help save the seas through the fish they buy. California's Monterey Bay Aquarium Institute is coming out with pocket guides to sustainable sushi. The researchers base their ratings on the health of a wild fish's population as well as the impacts of fish-farming operations. Oysters, for example, grow fast and can be farmed sustainably, but salmon can't. The researchers also take fishing practices into consideration: catching big-eye tuna (金枪鱼) can cause its nearby fish to die, which certainly no one wants to see. It is hoped that, by making the right choice, consumers can encourage businesses to fish in a more sustainable way.

1、The author loved _____ when he lived in Tokyo.

A、playing football

B、eating sea food

C、singing and dancing

D、reading newspapers

2、If we continue to fish in this way, ______.

A、the fisheries could make a lot of money

B、more and more sushi would be demanded

C、there could be no fish in the oceans

D、the supermarkets could disappear

3、The "quota system" is a system which ______.

A、sets a limited amount to fishermen or companies

B、enables everyone to fish as much as possible

C、prevents fishery from getting better over time

D、is not a way to guarantee sustainable fishing

4、According to the last paragraph, the researchers base their ratings on _____ aspects.

A、one

B、two

C、three

D、four

5、The example of catching big-eye tuna is to prove that _____.

A、the quota system is a win-win situation

B、the pocket guides are helpful to sustainable sushi

C、the health of a wild fish's population is important

D、the researchers base the ratings on fishing practice

听力原文:W: You went to the Grand Concert Hall yesterday?

M: Yes. It was really fantastic.

W: You are crazy about music, aren't you?

M: Yes, I am. It is always my favorite.

W: What type of music do you like most?

M: I enjoy listening to all kinds of music—classical, jazz, rock and roll...but my favorite is pop music.

W: I like pop music, too. But my favorite is still country music.

M: Country music? Then you must know John Denver and his songs.

W: That's right. I'm familiar with all his songs. I like "Country road takes me home" most. Unfortunately, my cassette-tape recorder broke down the other day.

M: Oh, have you thought of buying a new one? Or buying a CD player instead?

W: I've no idea. I don't know which I should choose.

M: A Walkman is easier to carry, but the quality of the sound is not as good as that of a CD player. A cassette often produces annoying "hiss" sounds while playing. This is the reason why I myself chose a CD.

W: I have a question. Nowadays, many digital products like MP3 and MP4 have appeared on the market. Will they replace CDs completely and make them outdated?

M: It is hard to say. You'd better find more information about all these products before making a final decision.

A.Jazz.

B.Pop music.

C.Classical music.

D.Country music.

听力原文: Gamblers may have different lifestyles and betting habits, but almost every one of them has a favorite story of good luck or ill luck.

Once, for example, a young man and woman entered Bradley's grand casino at Palm Beach. They played for an hour and lost $10,000. The next morning the girl burst into Bradley's office.

"We were on our honeymoon and he lost all our life savings," she sobbed.

A soft-hearted man by nature, the casino owner Bradley responded:

"Sorry to hear that, young lady, here is your $10,000. But your husband is never to set foot in my casino again."

That evening Bradley was outraged when he saw the young man bent over the roulette table.

"What are you doing here? I told your wife... "

"What wife?" the young man interrupted.

Bradley realized that he had been taken in but he managed a thin smile when he received a telegram an hour later from another city with the message.

"Thanks."

(41)

A.$1,000.

B.$10,000.

C.$15,000.

D.All their life savings.

W: Ahha. That's fine. What seems to be the problem?

M: Well, it's been nothing but trouble since I bought it.

W: Which one is it?

请阅读短文,完成第题。

Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made.Although we were brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.

Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal-clear memory of dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and above all, the insects.

I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm has led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil, reading about other people"s observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research.

But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do notmake a scientist; one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a qualityI lack. A scientist can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.

According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be 查看材料

A.full of ambition

B.self-disciplined

C.full of enthusiasm

D.knowledgeable
