  三、阅读理解题:阅读下面短文,从A.B、C、D四个选项中,选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。

  A

  Winter 2024 will have an extended stay on America's calendar, according to today's annual Groundhog Day(土拨鼠日) forecasting event in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania。

  Each year on February 2nd, people from around the world, including 5,000 in the small town today, watch this tongue-twisting(发音饶舌的) small town for a sign from one groundhog that supposedly predicts when that year's spring will arrive:

  If it's a cloudy day outside when the groundhog emerges from its cave, then spring will arrive early that year. However, if it is sunny outside, the groundhog will supposedly be scared by its own shadow, retreating underground for six more weeks of cold weather。

  Of course, Punxsutawney Phil's prediction is no more able to guarantee the extended forecast than your local weatherman. ABC News reports that an analysis by the National Climate Data Center found that Phil's predictions are more often wrong than right.

  Phil is also found to have made some unpleasant predictions. Ever since 1887, he has predicted 99 extended winters and just 16 early springs. Nine of the year's predictions were unavailable, according to ABC。

  The holiday began as a German tradition in 18th century and became even more of a cultural phenomenon after the 1993 film Groundhog Day starring Bill Murray.

  Punxsutawney Phil has become a celebrity in his own right. Each year, the fatter animal with long teeth is watched by millions as he emerges from a cave in the town he is named after. Phil has become so beloved by the town that he actually lives in the local library with his "wife" Phyllis。

  Taking inspiration from the hard state of Bill Murray's character in the classic film, Yahoo contributor Owen Rust says Groundhog Day is a good time to reflect on one's routines。

  36. Which is the best title for this passage?

  A. Groundhog Day weather forecasting.

  B. Winter 2024.

  C. A tongue-twisting small town.

  D. the National Climate Data Center.

  37. What may the underlined word emerges mean?

  A. gets into

  B. appears

  C. increases.

  D. hides

  38. How is Punxsutawney Phil's prediction?

  A. More exact than that the local weatherman does.

  B. More often than that the local weatherman does.

  C. Less often than that the local weatherman does.

  D. Not exact enough to match with the fact.

  39. Why aren?t Phil's predictions pleasing?

  A. Phil likes to make unpleasant predictions.

  B. Phil wants to do that for fun.

  C. He has predicted more extended winters.

  D. He has predicted more late springs.

  40. How does Punxsutawney Phil become a celebration?

  A. By an accident.

  B. From people’s life improving.

  C. By his own attractive force.

  D. From much money raised by the town.

  B

  Egypt may be walking towards a much-needed IMF loan, but that hasn抰 put of f some foreign partners. GB Auto, the Cairo-listed auto assembler(汽车组装公司), will begin putting together and selling cars from China’s Geely in the second quarter of 2024.

  GB will assemble the cars from kits(配件) supplied by Geely (the Hangzhou-based carmaker that bought Volvo in a $1.5bn deal in 2010), and will sell the finished product in markets across North Africa, beginning with Egypt. The deal is 搊ne of several partlnerships we will announce this year,” said GB’s chairman, Raouf Ghabbour, in a statement.

  GB controls 32 per cent of the Egyptian selling car market, where it rose to success as the largest local assembler, importer and seller of cars from South Korea’s Hyundai. It is now the the Middle East’s largest car assembler. High tax on fully-assembled imported cars have encouraged a number of international auto brands, including BMW and China’s Geely, to have their vehicles put together in Egypt.

  For Geely, the Egyptian deal is another step in efforts to push its products out across the world, after announcing last year that it would set up a production hub(轮轴)in Indonesia to target the fast-growing Southeast Asian market. The company plans on selling at least one model in the UK by the end of 2024.

  While 2011 was a tough year for car sales (and pretty much everything else) in Egypt, the vehicle market is still a good prospect as a large and increasingly young population fuel long-term economic growth. GB says there are about 30 cars per 1,000 people in Egypt, compared to 128 in China and 109 in Morocco.

  GB says the tuk-tuk’s popularity in Egypt’s rural inland and informal urban slums(贫民窟)made it less influenced by a slowdown in the passenger car industry.

  And if long-discussed reforms of Egypt lead to higher fuel prices, expect tuk-tuks, powered by something barely larger than a lawnmower (割草机)engine, to become increasingly attractive for urban transport.

  41.What is the general idea of the pasasage?

  A. China’s Geely is entering Egypt.

  B. For Geely, the Egyptian deal is another step.

  C. GB covers much of Egyptian car selling. D. GB will assemble the cars from kits.

  42.Which country’s seller of cars is GB? _____.

  A. China.

  B. Korea.

  C. Japan.

  D. Egypt

  43. Why do China’s Geely put their kits of cars together in a foreign country? Because of_____.

  A.A number of international auto brands.

  B. Several partners’ help.

  C. Egypt ‘s need of IMF loan.

  D. Too much tax.

  44.Why do they mention the figure about China and Morocco’s cars?

  A. To learn from them easily.

  B. To show China and Morocco’s strength.

  C. To show GB has a good future.

  D. To beat China and Morocco in selling.

  45. What is the tuk-tuk’s advantage?

  A. That its kits came from China.

  B. That its engine is smaller than others.

  C. GB assemble them carefully.

  D. It is sold in Egypt’s rural inland.

  C

  Digging a Hole in China's Black Gold.

  China's love affair with coal is set to last, but for investors the romance has come out of the relationship.

  For the last few years, investors in China's coal section have been mining a rich seam(煤层). From the beginning of 2005 to the end of 2011, the level Qinhuangdao coal price rose 81%, supporting strong growth in profitability (利润)and enviable degree at mining majors like China Shenhua Energy.

  But as any miner will tell you, the longer you work a seam, the more difficult it is to get value. China's coal prices have fallen nearly 10% in the last three months. A seasonal fall from the winter peak, and a cyclical(周期性的)slowdown brought about by China's slowing construction and money tightening, is only part of the picture. Those effects will fade, but coal miners will still have to battle against structural pressure for lower prices.
