(b) elizabeth blackwell was born in england in 1821, and moved to new york city when she was ten years old. one day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. that was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. after writing many letters asking for admission(錄取) to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in philadelphia. she was so determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling. in 1849, after graduation from medical school.she decided to further her education in paris. she wanted to be a surgeon(外科醫(yī)師) ,but a serious eye problem forced her to give up the idea. upon returning to the united states, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. by 1857 elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital , she also set up the first medical school for women. 61. why couldnt elizabeth blackwell realize her dream of becoming a surgeon?

maybe you thought that they were just happy. after all, you probably sing when you are happy. some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. however, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory. do you know what a “territory” is? a territory is an area that an animal,usually the male, claims (聲稱) as its own. only he and his family are welcome there. no other families of the same species are welcome. your house is your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. if a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. probably this would be enough to frighten him away. if so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. a bird does the same thing. but he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. so he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. this screaming is what we call a birds song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away. 66. some scientists believe that most of the time birds singing is actually _. a an expression of happiness b. a way of greeting c. an expression of anger d. a way of warning 67. what is a birds “territory”？ a. a place where families of other species are not accepted. b. a place where a bird may shout at the top of its voice.c. an area which a bird considers to be its own. d. an area for which birds fight against each other.68. why do birds keep on singing at nesting season? a. because they want to invite more friends. b. because they want to find outsiders around. c. because their singing helps frighten outsiders away. d. because their singing helps get rid of their fears. 69. how does the writer explain birds singing? a. by telling a birds story. b. by reporting experiment results. c. by describing birds daily life. d. by comparing birds with human beings.70. what does the underline word “screaming” in paragraph 4 mean? a. 哭喊聲 b. 令人驚愕的 c. 尖叫的 d. 尖叫聲 (d) americans like to visit the national parks. in 1996, over 250,000,000 people visited areas which are managed by the national park service. experts say that by 2012, 500,000,000 people per year will visit the parks. as a result, people are trying to think of ways to protect the parks from the crowds. the crowding of the parks has caused several problems. one is that there is not enough space for all of the people who want to use the parks. to deal with this problem, you may have to book your tickets a few months ahead of time. the park service may also raise entrance fees (費(fèi)) . another problem caused by increased park use is pollution. some garbage and waste can be cleaned up, and the cleanup can be paid for by increased entrance fees. to cut down on noise pollution and air pollution, the number of cars allowed in parks may be limited. if this happens, people may use buses to travel around the parks. officials may also limit the use of jet-skis, snow-mobiles, motor-boats, and sightseeing helicopters and planes. the parks may also be in danger because of development that is going on around them. for example, around yellow stone park, many hotels, golf courses, resorts, and other tourist attractions have been built. some of these developments have effect on areas that are used by animals. people will have to learn to agree about ways to protect the parks. if they do not, there will soon be no reason to visit these national treasures. 71. according to experts, by 2012 the number of visitors _. a. may rise to 50% b. may be doubled c. will reach 250 million d. will go up by a second72. which of the following is true according to the text?
