Without such problems, animals in zoos should live to an old age. But that may not be true for the largest land animals on earth. Scientists have known that elephants in zoos often suffer from poor health. They develop diseases and behaviour changes. Sometimes, they even become unable to have babies. To learn more about how elephants are affected, a team of international scientists compared the life spans of elephants born in zoos with those living outdoors in their native lands. Zoos keep detailed records of all the animals, such as birth dates, illnesses, weight and death. These records made it possible for the researchers to analyse 40 years of data on 800 African and Asian elephants in zoos across Europe. The team found that female African elephants born in zoos lived an average of 16.9 years while those in the wild lived an average of 56 years. Scientists don’t yet know why wild elephants seem to be so much better than their zooraised elephants. Georgia Mason, a biologist who led the study, thinks stress and obesity(肥胖) may be to blame. Zoo elephants don’t get the same kind of exercise they would in the wild, and most are fat. Another finding from the study showed that Asian elephants born in zoos were more likely to die early than Asian elephants caught in the wild and brought to zoos. Mason suggests stress in the mothers in zoos might cause them to have babies that are less likely to survive. 29. Most people think that animals in the zoos ________. A. live longer than those in the wild B. often struggle with each other C. will often fight with their enemies D. have difficulty in finding food 30. The scientists carried out a research so that they could know ________. A. how long the elephants live B. how the elephants can be fed C. how the elephants should be kept D. how the elephants are affected 31. In order to let the elephants in the zoos live longer, people should ________. A. get them to exercise as in the wild B. give them a good diet C. try to keep as quiet as possible D. keep their living place clean (C) In America, when the eighth-graders leave the middle school, they are often worried about moving to the high school. It is a hard time for them, but it can be an exciting one as well. To make it easier, students need to get familiar with their school. Even though they’ve done this already in the middle school, it’s still important to find where their classrooms are. Most schools take students to the high school for a visit at the end of their eighth grade year. And, most schools also have a freshman(新生) speech for parents and students before the first year begins. Sometimes the main office will give away a map of the school. This can help students and parents to find different places in the school. One way to know your high school more and make new friends is to join a club or play a sport. Schools often offer chances to join different clubs and sports. Fall activities begin in August before the first day of school. If you are not interested in sports, there are clubs for any interest, such as drama, dance, chess, photography, community service, etc. Students from different grades are allowed to join these clubs. By joining an activity, students can find new friendships, not to mention improving their chances in future college applications(申請). The school office will have a list of activities offered at the school and information on how to join them. What’s more, to have a great start to a high school year, students can write down some of their worries, and ask for help from teachers and school workers. 32. According to the text, most students feel ________ when entering the high school. A. excited B. nervous C. lonely D. disappointed 33. Which of the following is TRUE about the school clubs? A. Summer activities begin before school starts. B. Schools can help new students join school clubs. C. The school clubs in high school only welcome sports fans. D. There are fewer students from higher grades in the school clubs. 34. When do many schools take students to visit their new high school? A. At the end of their eighth grade year. B. Right after the high school year starts. C. Before the eighth grade year starts. D. At the beginning of the new term in the high school. 35. What is the purpose of this text? A. To introduce new schools. B. To give the teachers some advice. C. To give advice to new high school students. D. To tell the new students how to learn in high school. (D) In some science fiction movies, evil robots refuse to die, no matter how hard people fight back. Now science fiction has become science fact. For the first time, scientists have made a robot that can take a beating and keep on going. Scientists from Cornell University made the robot, which looks like a spider with four legs. Until now, even the most advanced robot was almost certain to break down when it was damaged. That is because its computer inside simply doesn’t know how to make the machine work after its shape has changed. To deal with this problem, the scientists put eight motors(發動機) and two sensors (傳感器) that read how the machine is working. They all give signals to the machine’s software. Using this information, the computer can then figure out the machine’s shape at any moment. The new technology is a big advance in robot-making, scientists say, and it’s far from scary. It may someday help scientists create better artificial(人造的) arms and legs and give new freedom to people who lose them. It might also help scientists understand how people and animals figure out their own sense of place in space. “It has been difficult to design robots that can work well when the environment changes or when it’s damaged,” says Olaf Sporns of Indiana University in US. “With this work, we are nearer to solving this problem.” 36. Why do robots easily break down when they are damaged? A. They cannot repair themselves. B. The computer has changed a lot. C. They have no computers inside. D. The computer cannot work if the robot changes. 37. The new technology allows the robot to ________. A. do house work for humans B. tell people where it is C. remember a lot of information D. keep working after being damaged 38. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refers to ________. A. sensors B. robots C. arms and legs D. scientists 39. How do the sensors in the robot work? A. They can replace the computer when it’s broken. B. They can find out where the damage comes from. C. They help the computer learn the robot’s condition. D. They can send signals to the person who uses the robot. 40. The passage is probably from ________. A. a newspaper B. an advertisement C. a tour guide D. an application 非選擇題（共50分） 四、填空（共15小題，每小題1分，滿分15分） A）根據括號中所給的漢語寫出單詞，使句子意思完整正確，并將答案填寫在答題卡標號為41—45的相應位置上。 41.

In secondary school he won the Athlete of the Year Award. He wanted to be a physical education teacher. Terry Fox’s future changed in 1977 when doctors told him there was cancer in his right knee. To stop the spread of cancer, doctors amputated(截肢) most of his leg. Fox learned how to use an artificial leg, and three weeks after the operation, he was walking. Terry Fox made a plan to raise money for cancer research by running across Canada. His goal was to raise $1 from every Canadian. People said it was a crazy idea but Terry could not be stopped. He started his running on the Atlantic coast in Newfoundland in April 1980 and planned to finish on the Pacific coast in September. The people of Newfoundland were welcoming and generous. Fox was treated to many meals at people’s homes. A small town of 10,000 people raised $10,000. Fox ran about 45 km each day. He ran through Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec and Ontario. As he ran he gave speeches about cancer and how the money he collected would go to finding a cure for cancer. The 8,000 people in the town of Gravenhurst donated $14,000. By the time he ran half-way across Canada he had raised $11.4 million. At the end of August he thought he was getting a bad cold and stopped running for a few days. Doctors said the cancer had come back and was now in his lungs. Terry went into hospital for treatment. People kept donating money. There were 24 million people in Canada in 1980. Over $24 million had been raised by February 1981. Terry had met his goal. The treatment did not cure Terry. He died on June 28, 1981. That September, the first Terry Fox Run was held in Canada.
