“Look at that!" Janet exclaimed, pointing out the car window.
Janet's father stopped the car and leaned over to look out her window.A giraffe was standing in a field of tall grass.Dad handed Janet the camera.
When Janet finished taking a picture, her father drove forward slowly.The animals at Fossil Rim Wildlife Center had surprised Janet.She had expected to see only animals native to Texas.She had seen goats, longhorns, and deer before, so she had not been too excited about coming.Now, however, she couldn't wait to see what animals from other countries would be wandering around.
Suddenly a small herd of zebras ran out in front of the car."Watch out!" Janet yelled to her father.
He stepped on the brakes."Now I understand why we were told to drive so slowly," Dad said."You can never tell what an animal may do!"
As Janet and her father watched the zebras, one zebra walked toward Janet's window.Janet grabbed a handful of food from the bag her father held and dropped it out the window."I hope they don't try to get into the car," she said.
⑦Janet was busy watching the zebra when she heard her father gasp.She turned toward him and almost burst out laughing.Trying to hold her breath, Janet quickly grabbed the camera and snapped a picture.A giraffe's head was just inches from her father's face.Her father didn't move while the giraffe was eating from the bag in his hand.
⑧After a few bites, the giraffe backed out of the open window and walked away.Janet's father let out a long sigh and said, "Let's go down the road and see what else comes to visit us."
Janet giggled as she thought about the surprised look on her father's face."Is that another giraffe over there, Dad?" she asked."Remember, the man at the gate said that they are very friendly!" Then they laughed together.

Most of us are familiar with one or two kinds of mushrooms, usually white or brown varieties that find their way onto pizzas.Actually, more than 3, 000 types grow around the world in a wide variety of flavors and sizes. They are listed on menus in fancy restaurants.But many centuries ago, long before pizzas and fancy restaurants existed, people were eating mushrooms.
Ancient hieroglyphics (象形文字) from more than 4, 600 years ago tell us Egyptians called mushrooms "the magic food." They believed eating them resulted in immortality (永生).Other ancient civilizations in places such as Russia and Mexico thought mushrooms had ingredients that could produce superhuman strength and even help locate lost objects.Centuries ago, people still associated magic with mushrooms.But today we have a more scientific approach to the mushroom.
Like many other plants, mushrooms serve as a source of food for insects and small animals.Mushrooms differ from green plants because they lack chlorophyll (叶绿素) and do not require sunshine to grow.Until the 1940s, most mushroom farms were in the Far East, especially China and Japan.Then during World War II, many American soldiers tasted the delicious varieties of mushrooms and learned about mushroom farming.After the war, they took this knowledge back to the United States, which soon became one of the world's major mushroom producers.
Health and safety are always concerns when growing any crop.One of the complications with mushrooms is that they can be poisonous or nonpoisonous.Common nontoxic varieties such as table and field mushrooms are safe to eat and can be purchased in grocery stores.Chefs use them in dishes ranging from soups to gourmet sauces, and some mushrooms even have medicinal benefits.Today the USA is the world leader in supplying mushrooms, and other major contributors include France, China, Canada, Great Britain, and Italy.

A.Harmless. B.Tasty.
C.Expensive. D.Poisonous.
62.What is the warning the author gives about mushrooms?

C.They should only be eaten in pizzas. D.They must be grown in dark, damp places
63.How are mushrooms different from green plants?
A.They're colorful, grown in the Far East.
B.They are a part of people's diet.
C.They're food for insects and small animals.

(This selection was originally published in 1992.Pluto (冥王星) is no longer classified as a planet.)
Pluto is in many ways the strangest of the planets.It is small and has a large moon (called Charon).Its orbit is unusual, which may cause it to have seasons in the sense that when it is close to the sun, the liquid methane(甲烷) on its surface boils to form a kind of atmospheric haze (烟雾). When the planet moves farther away from the sun, it starts to snow solid methane.
Pluto is not dark.Despite its great distance from the sun, the surface of Pluto is probably as bright as a moonlit night on Earth.The reason is all that methane, which is as white as newly fallen snow.
The discovery of Pluto was more accident than design.The American astronomer Percival Lowell had predicted the existence of a ninth planet (he called it Planet X) based on what he took to be irregularities in the orbit of Neptune.Today astronomers argue that these "irregularities" weren't real, but the result of instrumental error.Nevertheless, Lowell produced predictions about where Planet X ought to be (although, to be honest, the predictions changed occasionally when he redid the calculations).In any case, in 1930 Clyde Tombaugh, doing a systemic sky survey that would have found the planet no matter where it was, discovered the planet we now call Pluto.By coincidence, its position was pretty close to where Lowell's last prediction said it should be.Was it just luck? We'll never know.
68.What contributes to the brightness of Pluto?
A.Light from its moon, Charon. B.Its great distance from the sun.
C.Methane on its surface. D.Its closeness to the sun.
69.On Pluto's surface, liquid methane boils to form an atmospheric haze, which would be most similar to ____.
A.darkness B.light
C.liquid D.steam
70.What effect is produced by including the question "Was it just luck?" at the end of the selection?
A.The question encourages the reader to think about why Pluto is a strange planet.
B.The question encourages the reader to think about how planets are discovered.
C.The question suggests that other planets were found in different ways.
D.The question suggests that all discoveries are luck, not just design.
71.The selection mainly wants to ____.
A.give a brief introduction of Pluto B.talk about the discovery of Pluto
C.prove the exact position of Pluto D.describe the strangeness of Pluto

I want to be a writer, an inventor, a social worker, and mayor of New York City.My future is no great mystery (谜) to me, and yours doesn't have to be a mystery either! All it takes is a goal, a little planning, and a lot of self-confidence.
I get excited when I think about what I can do, and so should you.Every dream can become a reality if you work at it.You don't have to limit yourself to doing just one thing.I want to do lots of things, like Benjamin Franklin.He was a writer, an inventor, a politician, and a scientist.
Having a goal, something you really want to do, is a good place to start in solving the mystery of your future. It gives you something to work toward.Your goal may seem impossible at first, but if you break it down, it won't seem so hard.Remember, a goal is something you really want to do, not what someone else wants you to do.
④Other people can help you figure out your future, too.People who do what you want to do are your greatest resources.To find out what they do, you can volunteer to help them, do an internship, or even just talk to them. Visiting your parents' jobs, going to career fairs, and participating in after-school programs are other good options. The Internet and the library are great places to research organizations and programs for young people.You can also read biographies of people who inspire you, which can help you see how other people reached their goals.If you're not certain about your future, explore different careers by asking yourself what you really like to do.
Be realistic when you make your goals but allow a little room for dreaming.Remember, it's OK you’re your future to be a little mysterious.That's what makes it so exciting.Someday you may be an astronaut, a carpenter, an ambassador, a writer, a ballet dancer, or whatever else interests you.You may even do it all!
72.According to the author, which is a good way of carrying out a plan to achieve a goal?
A.To work on several plans at once.
B.To break it down into manageable steps.

A.To make the reader aware of useful resources.
B.To inform the reader about the workplace.
C.To encourage the reader to do well in school.
D.To urge the reader to try several careers.
74.Which actyity would help a person to be realistic when he makes his goal?
A.Imitating people one admires.
B.Feeling attracted to different occupations.
C.Writing about hopes and dreams.
D.Seeking information about careers.
75.What is the effect of listing many different occupations in the opening and closing paragraphs?

One possible version
I quite agree with what the American actor said. Whether a man is old or not is not decided only by his biological age, but also by what he is seeking. Some people should be very old when they give up every effort to try anything new although they are actually very young. On the contrary, some people still spare no effort to achieve their dream while they are actually very old. I think they are still very young and they would never regret when they are really too old.
