We have a door which leads onto the street and

10、two entrances from the water. One runs under a rounded arch (拱门) into the ground floor of the house, which, as is customary in the city, is used instead of a cellar for storing things. The second is used for our business activities and it is located in another building which has three floors. The ho

11、use is almost 200 years old. It has beautiful arched windows and green painted shutters to keep out the cruel summer heat. When I lie in bed at night, I can hear the songs of the passing gondoliers and the conversations in the square nearby. I understand why Uncle Leo runs his business here. The pri

12、ces are not too high. The location of the house is near the city centre and easy to find. Besides, the printing trade has many roots in this area of Venice, even if some of the old publishers from the area are no longer there. Venice is like a large copy of our old library at home in Spain, full of

13、dark corners and unexpected surprises, some very close to me. Last night, while searching in the corners of the house, I found a single copy of Aristotles Poetics, published in the city in 1502. I raced to Uncle Leo with my discovery and a smile almost appeared on his face. “A find, boy! Thisll fetc

14、h good money when I sell it down in the market.” “May I read a little first, sir？” I asked, feeling worried.

16、f the book show about Uncle Leo? AHe has problems with money. BHe has a good sense of humour. - 5 - CHis main interest is making money. DHis manner of dealing with people is frightening. B Kangaroo Island is more famous for what it hasnt got than what it has. Unlike mainland Australia, rabbits and f

17、oxes were never introduced, so the local wildlife has less competition for survival. Another thing the island doesnt have is something a Scottish friend once called, “The Way of the Island”. There is no sense of being on the island; in many places, you can climb to a high point and see nothing but b

18、ushes in any direction. That catches many visitors out when they arrive with the idea of walking or cycling around the island. Its really too big for that. There is little in the way of public transport, and the most practical ways to get around are to sign up for an organised tour or hire a car. Th

The West End Highway heads south；the Playford Highway continues westward as a dirt road to Cape Borda, where there is a lighthouse, a few former light keepers cotta

20、ges, a National Park Visitor Centre and nothing else. Much of the island is farmland；lamb and beef from Kangaroo Island are especially prized. Fruit is also a major export, but the grapes in the vineyards (葡萄园) are turned into very acceptable wine first. 19 National Parks and Conservation Areas cove

21、r over 30% of the islands area, and the biggest of them lies to the southwest of the island, where the Finders Chase National Park covers 32, 600 hectares of bush land. Entry is by permit only, which we bought at the park entrance at Rocky River. There, we wondered if the park authorities had the wi

22、ldlife trained, because we saw a family of kangaroos right in the car park by the park office, but they only appeared after we paid the entrance fee! 24Why is the wildlife on Kangaroo Island more likely to survive? ABecause there are no rabbits or foxes on the island. BBecause rabbits and foxes are

23、less competitive species. CBecause nobody lives on the island. DBecause the island is famous for its bushes. 25What can you find at Cape Borda? - 6 - AThe Playford Highway. BThe West End Highway. CA few vineyards. DSome former light keepers cottages. 26The author and his family saw a family of kanga

Atalked to the park authorities Bpaid the entrance fee Cwent into the park office Darrived at Rocky River C It all started a few years ago in the quiet village of Mollington after a number of burglaries. Those living in the village came up with

25、the idea that they themselves could keep an eye on their neighbours property while they were away on holiday. Since then, with the help of the government and police, more than 50,000 “Neighbourhood Watch” schemes have been set up in the UK. The object of each “Watch” group is to prevent things like

26、this from happening again in any street or area. Each villager who is a member of the scheme agrees to do their best to stop anyone stealing something in the village. Everything is done calmly and carefullyit is the police who check out each report and find out what is happening. Villagers who are p

27、art of the group are not supposed to act as police or put themselves in any danger. When a new “Neighbourhood Watch” scheme is set up in an area, the first thing people notice is the large, brightly coloured “Neighbourhood Watch” board. This is a real warning to most burglars, because very few of th

28、em will take a chance of breaking into someones house if they know that there is a high risk of being seen by neighbours keeping a lookout. Burglars also know that people who are part of the “Neighbourhood Watch” schemes are more likely to have fitted good locks to their doors and windows. Since the

29、 “Neighbourhood Watch” scheme was set up, there are fewer burglaries and there is a new community spirit. It is bringing people together as never before, and encouraging people to care for each other. New friendships are also being made. 27The “Neighbourhood Watch” scheme in Mollington was started _

30、. - 7 - Aas the first of its kind in the UK Bafter 50,000 burglaries in the area Cbecause the police were short of hands Dbecause it was a popular holiday centre 28The job for members of a “Watch” group is to _.

31、trouble Dreport a burglary to the police 29What does the author think of the scheme? AHe doubts it. BIt is worrying. CIt is successful. DHe is uncertain about it. 30Whats the purpose of the text? ATo advise. BTo discuss. CTo educate. DTo introduce. 第二节(共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处
