There was a river with a small town on either side of it.The towns were linked by a bridge.One day,a hole appeared in the bridge.Both towns agreed that the hole should be mended.However,disagreement came up as to who should mend it.Each town thought that it had a better?reason for the other to mend the hole.The town on the right bank said that it was at the end of the road,so the left-bank town should mend the hole.The town on the left bank,on the other hand,insisted that?all the traffic came to the right-bank town,so it was in their interest to mend the bridge.The quarrel went on and on,and so did the hole.The more it went on,the more the hostility?between the two towns grew.One day a man fell into the hole and broke his leg.People from both towns questioned him?closely about whether he was walking from the right bank to the left or from the left bank to the?right,in order to decide which town should be blamed for the accident.But he could not remember,since he got drunk that night.Some time later.,a car was crossing the bridge and broke an axle(轴)because of the hole.Neither town paid any attention to the accident,as the traveler was not going from one to the other,but?was merely passing through.The angry traveler got out of the car and asked why the hole was not?mended.On hearing the reason,he declared,"I′11 buy this hole.Who′s the owner?"Both towns at once declared that they owned the hole."One or the other,whoever owns the hole must prove it.""How shall we prove it?"asked both sides."That′s simple.Only the owner of the hole has the right to mend it.I′11 buy the hole from?whoever mends the bridge."People from both towns rushed to do the job while the traveler smoked a cigar and his driver?changed the axle.They mended the bridge in no time and asked for the money for the hole."What hole?"The traveler looked surprised."I can′t see any hole.I′ve been looking for a?hole for several years now.I′m prepared to pay a good price for it,but there′s no hole here.Are?you pulling my leg or what?"He got into his car and drove off.The man who had fallen into the hole failed to answer any questions because he__________。《》（）A.had one of his legs brokenB.was busy changing the axleC.had drunk too much wineD.was afraid to blame anybody

Text 2 When people talk about a"north-south divide"in Britain they are usually referring to house prices,employment and the ratio of private-sector to public-sector jobs.The south scores higher on all such measures.But new data from the British Trust for Ornithology（BTO）,a research charity,hints at the growth of another north-south divide-this time to the north's benefit.Every 20 years the BTO produces a superbly detailed atlas of bird life in Britain and Ireland.The 2007 t0 2011 edition is cheery:more species are tallied than in previous atlases,and many birds are increasing in number.Compared with two decades ago,45%of regular native species are ranging more widely while 32%are living in smaller areas;the rest have stayed put.But the most striking news comes from the north.The overall populations of woodland,farmland and migrant perching birds are up in northern England and Scotland but down in the south.The same is true of individual species such as the garden warbler,bullfinch and swallow.The number of cuckoos,a closely-watched species,declined by 63%in England between 1995 and 2010 but by only 5%in Scotland.Raptors are faring especially well in the south,but their numbers are rising in most parts of Britain.Partly this reflects climate change,suggests Simon Gillings of the BTO.Some birds are drawn to warmer winters in Scotland and northem England;visiting migrants may stick around for longer.Hard though it may be to believe during a week of torrential rain,the south is becoming drier,pushing snipe northward.More efficient farming has squeezed some farmland species.Some birds find it harder to make homes in the south,too.Pressure on housing means dilapidated buildings and barns,handy for nesting,have been converted into human dwellings.Between 2006 and 2012 the number of vacant dwellings fell by 17%in London and by 12%in Kent.Over the same period the number of empty houses increased by 16%in Derbyshire and by 10%in Lancashire:Northern mining villages once full of workers are now sparsely populated,points out Ian Bartlett,a birdwatcher in Hartlepool,in north-east England.They have become hot spots for birds and the people who watch them.Culrural difference also plays a part,thinks Mark Cocker,an expert on birds.The"obsession with tidiness"is stronger in the south,he says.Fewer people cultivate gardens;they prefer to cover them in decking and remove weeds from between concrete slabs.Village greens are mowed short.In contrast,Scotland and northern England have more trees,grassland and wind-swept moors.Less popular with humans,rugged parts of the countryside are filling up with a winged population instead.The text mainly discusses_____A.birds thriving in EnglandB.new north-south divideC.culture difference between north and southD.climate change in England
共用题干The First Settlement in North AmericaIt is very difficult to saythat when colonization began.The first hundred years after Christo-pher Columbus’s journey of discovery in 1492 did not produce any settlement on the North Ameri-can continent but rather some Spanish trading posts further south,a great interest in gold and ad-venture,and some colorful crimes in which the English had their part.John Cabot,originally from Genoa but a citizen of Venice, was estahlished as a trader in Bristol,England,when he made a journey in 1497 .But his ship,the Matthew,with its crew of eighteen,did no more than see an island(probably off the New England coast)and return home.He and his son made fur-ther voyages across the north Atlantic,which enahled the English Crown to claima“legal”title to North America.But for a long time afterwards the Europeans,interest in America was mainly con-fined to the Spanish activities further south.Th e fi rst heginning of permanent settlement in North America was nearly a hundred yearsa仁 ter Columbus'5 first voyage.The Englishman Sir Walter Raleigh claimed the whole of North Amer-ica for England,calling it Virginia.In 1585 he sent a small group ofpeople who landed in Roano-ke Island,but they stayed only for a year and then went back to England with another expedition, led hy Drake,in 1 5 87 .A second group who landed in 1 587 had all disappeared when a further expedition arrived in 1590.The first permanent settlement in North America was in 1 607 .English capitalists founded two Virginia companies,a southern one hased in London and a northern one based in Bristol.It was decided to give the name New England to the northernarea.The first settlers in Virginia were lit-tle more than wage slaves to the company.All were men and the experiment was not very success-ful .Many died.Those who survived lived in miserable conditions.By 1619 the colony had onlya thousand people. We know for sure that colonization began at the end of the 15th century．A: RightB:WrongC:Notmentioned
