 There are lots of dangerous and terrible insects in Northeastern India, but the tree-bees are the most terrible. They are killers. Unlike most bees which will sting (叮咬) you only if they are disturbed (打扰), tree-bees will attack you in thousands for no reason. And they will chase (追赶) you for your life.
 Walking along a dusty road while I was on holiday there last year. I found myself, without the least warning, the centre of such an attack. The air above me suddenly became thick with bees. Though it was hot, I went cold all over. Until then I had never heard of Indian tree-bees, but I had recently seen a film called “The Angry Swarm”, which was about killer-bees.
 I began running to the village about half a mile away, but I was soon covered from head to foot with bees. I drove them away with my hands, only to make room for others. Each time I opened my mouth for breath, more bees entered my mouth, until it was stung to twice its usual size and I could hardly breathe.
 When I reached the village, I found some workers building a house. I ran towards them for help. But as soon as the workers saw the bees with me, they ran for safety at top speed.
 Soon my eyes had completely closed. I fell into a pile of brick dust. I pushed myself wildly down into it until my head and shoulders were covered. And then I tried hard to get out of the dust, the angry bees made a new attack on me. I was tired out and ran weakly about in circles. Soon I lost my consciousness (意识).
 Later I learned that two quick-minded villagers ran to a pile of dry grass and quickly surrounded (包围) me with a thick wall of fire and smoke until the bees were driven away. They stayed with me, taking stings out of my body for the next three hours until a doctor came and gave me further treatment.

31.  What can we infer (推断) from the second paragraph?
 A. The temperature went down at that time.
 B. The air suddenly became thick because of the dust.
 C. The writer knew Indian tree-bees were the most dangerous.
 D. The writer felt scared when he was surrounded by tree-bees.
32.  In which order did the following things happen to the writer?
 a. He tried to drive away the bees but failed.
 b. He was surrounded with a thick wall of fire and smoke.
 c. He was tired out and lost consciousness later.
 d. He watched a film named “The Angry Swarm”.
 e. He was attacked by tree-bees while taking a walk.
 A. e-a-c-b-d   B. d-e-a-c-b   C. e-b-a-d-c   D. d-e-a-b-c
33.  Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
 A. Tree-bees often attack people in large numbers.
 B. Tree-bees can be driven away by fire and smoke.
 C. Tree-bees do not give up easily when they attack people.
 D. Tree-bees will not attack people unless they are disturbed.

D
 This year the US will honour(纪念) one of the country’s most famous writers—Mark Twain (1835-1910). Most readers know that his real name was Samuel Longhome Clemens, but how many know where the pen name “Mark Twain” came from?
 The answer shows Clemens’ colorful early life before he became a writer. “Mark Twain” was the cry shouted on a ship when the ship entered a part of a river that was two fathoms (6 feet) deep. “Twain” is an old-fashioned way of saying “two”. Twain trained as a ship pilot on the Mississippi river for two years, a time that he wrote about in the humourousLife on the Mississippi (1883).
 The famous river would become an important theme in many of his works—who could forget the journey of the Huck and Jim along it in his most famous book. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884)?
 With little education, he had to teach himself how to write stories. Whenever possible, he would go to public libraries. There he spent much time reading and thinking, which greatly helped him with his writing.
 On the other hand, his life experiences gave him wonderful material to write about and attract readers. Twain wrote in a style that has been called “local colour” because it shows great knowledge of local people and their customs.
 This gift is very clear in the two books for which Twain is still celebrated today. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (1876) and its follow-up The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, which many people call “The Great American Novel”.
 The most amazing invention in the book is the voice of Huck himself. Huck did not enjoy schooling. It shows in the way he uses language, in a spoken style. Only a master like Twain could copy the way a young southern boy talked so well.

34.  What does the underlined word “gift” mean in the passage?
 A. Twain’s talent for self-teaching.     B. Twain’s “local colour” writing style.
 C. Twain’s good sense of humour.     D. Twain’s experiences as a ship pilot
35.  According to the passage, what is the best part of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn?
 A. The deep social meaning.      B. The exciting life experiences.
 C. The special way that Huck talks.    D. The nice view of the Mississippi.
36.  Which is the most suitable place in the passage for the sentence. “Twain did not come from the writer’s background you might expect”?
 A. At the beginning of Paragraph 2.    B. At the beginning of Paragraph 3.
 C. At the beginning of Paragraph 4.    D. At the beginning of Paragraph 5.
37.  What is the passage mainly about?
 A. Mark Twain’s career as a great writer.   
B. Mark Twain’s interest in describing local life.
 C. Mark Twain’s achievements in American literature field.
 D. Mark Twain’s life experiences which influenced his writing.
