第二節(jié)：完形填空（共小20題；每小題1分，滿分20分）
閱讀下面短文，從短文后所給各題的四個選項（A、B、C、D）中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。
One night recently, I was driving down a two-lane highway at about 60 miles an hour. A car approached from the
36
direction at about the same speed. As we
37
each other, I caught the other driver’s eye for only a second.
I wondered whether he might be
38
, as I was, how dependent we were on each other at that moment. I was relying on him not to fall
39
, not to be put off by a phone conversation, not to cross over into my lane and bring my life to a sudden
40 . Though we had
41
spoken a word to each other, he relied on me in just the same way.
Multiplied a million times over, I believe that is the way the world
42 . At some
43
, we all depend upon one another. Sometimes that dependence requires us
44
not to do something like crossing over the double yellow line. And sometimes it requires us to act
45
, with friends or even with
46
.
As technology
47
our world, the need increases for cooperative action among nations. In 2003, doctors in five nations were quickly organized to identify the SARS virus, which
48
thousands of lives. The threat of international terrorism has shown itself to be a
49
problem, one requiring coordinated action by police and intelligence forces across the world’ We must recognize that our fates are not ours
50
to control.
In my own life, I’ve put great stock in
51
responsibility.
52
, as the years have passed, I’ve also come to believe that there are moments when one must rely upon the good faith and judgment of
53
. So, while each of us faces the case of driving alone down a
54
road, what we must learn is that the approaching light may not be a threat, but a shared moment of
55
.

第二部分：閱讀理解(共15 小題，每小題2分，共30分)
A
It was the afternoon of December 24, the day before Christmas; and as the newest doctor in our office, I had to work. The only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating — a dozen long-stemmed red roses.
As I was cleaning my office,
I was told a lady urgently needed to speak with me. As I stepped out, I noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. Nervously, she explained that her husband — a prisoner in a nearby prison — was my next patient. She told me she wasn’t allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son. Her request was for me to let the boy’s father sit in the waiting room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment. Since my schedule wasn’t full, I agreed. After all, it was Christmas Eve.
A short time later, her husband arrived — with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyguards. The woman’s tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the prisoner back to my office. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly could have done to be held under such conditions. I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.
At the end of the appointment, I wished him a Merry Christmas-a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison. He smiled and thanked me. He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadn’t been able to get his wife anything for Christmas. On hearing this, I was inspired with a wonderful idea.
I’ll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed roses. I’m not sure who experienced the most joy — the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.
56. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?
A. The writer was a newcomer to her office.
B. A fellow sent her a dozen red roses as Christmas present.
C. She was in low spirits because she had to work before Christmas.
D. She was at work with a light heart.
57. The young woman came to the writer’s office for the purpose of
.
A. having her baby examined
B. giving her husband a chance to make his escape
C. having her husband examined D. getting a chance for her family to get together
B
If your idea of a good time is to sleep in a hut, carry your own rubbish, and eat insects and wild animals, then ecotourism may be just for you. But is it also for people who want to fly over a rainforest sky before checking into a comfortable and expensive hotel in the middle of a national park? Whatever ecotourism is, it is hot--perhaps too hot for its own good.
The World Tourism Organization claims that the industry looked after 592 million travelers last year who spent $423 billion, and of all the types of tourism, ecotourism seems to be the fastest
growing. By the broadest measure -- a trip with some sort of nature or wilderness element -- ecotourism already accounts for perhaps a third of these travelers. On a stricter definition favored by the Ecotourism Society, it is “responsible travel that preserves natural environments and keeps up the well-being of local people,” which accounts for no more than 5% of tourism.
Ideally, ecotourism helps both people and nature. Before the disastrous civil war, Rwanda’s Mountain Gorilla Project was one such model. Visits to the gorillas were limited, local guides ensured good behavior or on the part of the humans, and the high admission charge - $170 a day -- paid for salaries and presentation of the gorillas’ living areas. As this made the gorillas worth more alive than dead, poaching (偷獵) decreased. As another example, preservation Cooperation, Africa’s largest ecotour operator, uses only local labor, buys products 5om local farmers, and supports building projects: such as clinics and schools. This contribution to social advance is also good business sense. Projects from which local people benefit directly are less likely to be affected by poaching and theft.
Ecotourism’s biggest problem is labeling. Going on an eco-tour is no guarantee of good ecology. So far, only Australia has an official system to grade tour operators and tourist attractions on the basis of their “greenness”. Another issue is how eco-tourists damage the environment. Dolphin-feeding, for instance, is innocent and enjoyable, but after too many free meals, the dolphins forget how to catch their own dinners.
