　　PartⅡReading Comprehension(2×20 points)

　　Directions：There are 4 passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.You should decide on the best choice and then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.

　　My love of nature goes right back to my childhood,to the times when I stayed on my grandparent’s farm in Suffolk.I think it was my grandmother who encouraged me more than anyone：she taught me the names of wildflowers and got me interested in looking at the countryside,so it seemed obvious to go on to do Zoology at university.

　　I didn’t get my first camera until after I’d graduated,when I was due to go diving in Norway and needed a method of recording the sea creatures I would find there.My father didn’t know anything about photography,but he bought me an Exacta,which was really quite a good camera for the time,and I went off to take my first pictures of sea anemones(海葵)and starfish(海星).I became keen very quickly,and I learnt how to develop and print.

　　I’ve tried from the beginning to produce pictures which are always biologically correct.There are people who will alter things deliberately:you don’t pick up sea creatures from the middle of the shore and take them down to attractive pools at the bottom of the shore without knowing you’re doing it.There can be a lot of ignorance in people’s behavior towards wild animals and it’s a problem that more and more people are going to wild places:while some animals may get used to cars,they won’t get used to people suddenly rushing up to them.The sheer pressure of people,coupled with the fact there are increasingly few places where no one else has photographed,means that over the years,life has become much more difficult for the professional wildlife photographers.Nevertheless,wildlife photographers play a very important part in educating people about what is out there and what needs conserving.Although photography can be an enjoyable pastime,as it is to many people,it is also something that plays a very important part in educating young and old alike.

　　I used to go to Starbucks for their coffee,but that’s changed since I discovered

　　their comforting,tasty teas,which are better than coffee any time.Tea is cool even

　　when it’s hot.People drink more tea than any other drink in the world,except

　　for water.

　　Whether it’s served hot or cold,natural and flavored teas are drinks that have

　　been consumed for centuries.Everywhere you look,you’ll find various kinds of

　　teas—in restaurants,grocery stores,television advertisements,and gift shops.

　　Why is there all this excitement about tea?What’s its attraction?Well,there

　　are many possibilities for why more and more people are drinking tea.One

　　possibility is that people are coming to notice the benefits of drinking tea,

　　particularly green tea.Studies show that drinking four cups of green tea a day

　　can reduce the risk of developing various types of cancers,as well as heart

　　disease.The key to tea’s effects of cure seems to lie in chemicals found in tea

　　which prevent a process that leads to the growth of cancers.Green tea may also

　　prevent skin cancer.It has also been linked with helping the body to rid itself of

　　harmful materials,and green tea is thought to possibly protect against colds and

　　Parkinson’s(帕金森)disease.

　　Another explanation for why people are drinking more tea may be due to the

　　comforting process of just making a cup of tea.The time it takes to prepare tea

　　leaves in hot water and enjoy its gentle flavor forces drinkers to slow down and

　　relax a while,making it the perfect way to improve a world where people are so

　　crazy about cappuccino,a hot coffee with milk in it.

　　So,whether you drink tea,eat it in foods,wear it to smell good,or take it in pills,

　　one thing is certain,the use of tea is more than a trend—it is a habit of our past

　　and if studies prove the benefits of its use,it will undoubtedly be an important
