　　第I卷（选择题）

一、阅读理解

　　　One day, I received a call from a colleague. He was about to give a student a zero for his answer to a physical problem，while the student claimed a perfect score. I was elected as their arbiter. I read the examination problem："Show how it is possible to determine the height of a tall building with the aid of a barometer(气压计)." The student had answered："Take the barometer to the top of the building，attach a long rope to it，lower it to the street，and then bring it up, measuring the length of the rope. The length of it is the height of the building. "

　　　The student had really answered the question completely, but the answer didn't confirm his competence in physics. I suggested the student try again. I gave him six minutes to answer the question, warning that the answer should show some knowledge of physics. Five minutes later, he said he had many answers and clashed off one, which read： "Take the barometer to the top of the building and lean over the edge of the roof. Drop the barometer, timing its fall with a stopwatch. Then, use the physical formula (公式）to calculate the height of the building. "

　　　At this point, my colleague had to accept it, and then the student made almost full marks. I couldn't help asking the student what the other answers were. He listed many others ，and then added "Probably the best is to take the barometer to the administrator and said to him，' Sir, here is a fine barometer. If you tell me the height of the building, I will give it to you.，"

　　　Then, I asked the student if he really did not know the conventional answer to this question. He admitted that he did, but said that he was fed up with high school and college instructors trying to teach him how to think.

　　　The name of the student was Bohr who later was famous all over the world. He won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1922.

　　　1．The student got a zero at the beginning because_______.

　　　A． the teacher wasn't satisfied with him

　　　B． his answer wasn't complete or correct

　　　C． his answer didn't show his knowledge of physics

　　　D． the teacher clicln5t fully understand his answer

　　　2．We know from the passage that______.

　　　A． the teacher was a very stubborn person

　　　B． the administrator told Bohr the height

　　　C． the author preferred Bohr' s last answer

　　　D． the student knew the expected answer

　　　3．We can learn from the passage that______.

　　　A． instructors can teach students how to think

　　　B． students should be given more freedom in thinking

　　　C． arbiters can help students to get high scores

　　　D． teachers should make students use physical formulas

　　　It is often necessary to release a fish, that is , set it free after catching, because it is too small, or you just don't want to take it home to eat. In some cases, releasing fish is a good measure that will help keep fish variety and build their population size. The Department of Game and Inland Fisheries (DGIF) encourages fishermen who practice catch-and-release fishing to use a few simple skills when doing so. The advice provided below will help make sure that the fish you release will survive to bite again another day.

　　　-When catching a fish, play it quickly and keep the fish in the water as much as possible.

　　　 Don't' use a net in landing the fish and release it quickly to prevent it from dying.

　　　-Hold the fish gently. Do not put your fingers in its eyes. Don't wipe the scales (鱼鳞) off the fish because it might cause it to develop a disease and reduce its chance of survival.

-Remove your hook (鱼钩) quickly. If the hook is too deep or hooked in the stomach, cut the line and leave the hook in. The hook left inside will cause no serious problem to the fish.
