Mr. Johnson took the only escape route
12、through the boot(行李箱).Mr. Johnsons car had finished up in a ditch(沟渠) at Romney Marsin, Kent, after skidding on ice and hitting a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly,” Mr. Johnson said, “I couldnt force the doors because they were jammed against the walls of the ditch and dare
13、d not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in.”Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape.Later he said, “It was really
14、 a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer trying to make someone hear, but no help came.”It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the
15、sweet samples from the boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. “It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the
16、car filled up.”His hands and arms cut and bruised，Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmers wife, Mrs. Lucy Bates. Trembling in a blanket, he said, “That thirty minutes seemed like hours.” Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. Th
17、e vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch.21. In which section of a newspaper can we read this article?A. Book review B. News report C. Campus life D. Continued story22.The underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 “Finally it gave” means that _.A. luckily the door was torn away in
18、 the end B. at last the wrench went brokenC. the lock came open after all his efforts D. the chance was lost at the last minute23.It can be inferred from the passage that _. A. the ditch was along a quiet country road B. the accident happened on a clear warm day C. the police helped Mr. Johnson get
19、out of the ditch D. Mr. Johnson had a tender wife and was well attendedBFor more than twenty years scientists have been seeking to understand the mystery of the “sixth sense” of direction. By trying out ideas and solving problems one by one, they are now getting closer to one answer. One funny idea
20、is that animals might have a built-in compass.Our earth itself is a big magnet(磁体). So a little magnetic needle that swings freely lines itself with the big earth magnet to point north and south. When people discovered that idea about a thousand years ago and invented the compass, it allowed sailors
21、 to navigate on ocean voyages, even under cloudy skies.Actually the idea of the living compass came just from observing animals in nature. Many birds migrate twice a year between their summer homes and winter homes. Some of them fly for thousands of kilometers and mostly at night. Experiments have s
22、hown that some birds can recognize star patterns. But they can keep on course even under cloudy skies. How can they do that?A common bird that does not migrate but is great at finding its way home is the homing pigeon. Not all pigeons can find their way home. Those that can are very good at it，and t
23、hey have been widely studied.One interesting experiment was to attach little magnets to the birds heads to block their magnetic sensejust as a loud radio can keep you from hearing a call to dinner. On sunny days, that did not fool the pigeons. Evidently they can use the sun to tell which way they ar
24、e going. But on cloudy days, the pigeons with magnets could not find their way. It was as if the magnets had blocked their magnetic sense.Similar experiments with the same kind of results were done with honeybees. These insects also seem to have a special sense of direction.24. What is the best titl
25、e for this passage? A. A great inventionCompass B. “Six sense” of direction C. Methods of finding directions D. A built-in compass in animals 25. What contributes to the pigeons good sense of direction according to the passage? A. The invention of the compass. B. The existence of their living compas

A. sparrows B. seagulls C. dolphins D. strawberryCA hospital has been forced to ban Pokemon Go players from the site after a monster hub(妖怪枢纽站) was found in the A&E department
27、. Royal Stoke University Hospital discovered that its casualty unit(急诊室) is on the same spot as a Pokemon Go gym where players can train their newly caught Nintendo creatures.The University Hospitals of North Midlands Trust agreed last week that patients can play Pokemon Go on wards because walking
28、around is healthy. But the Trust has been forced to post a warning on its website about public access to A&E. It said if Pokemon Go becomes a major annoyance it would ask Nintendo which decides on the locations of the virtual gyms according using GPSto have it removed from the premises(道馆).Kevin Par
29、ker, associate chief nurse, said, “Members of the public who do not need to be at Royal Stoke should not attempt to enter A&E or any other part of the hospital building to play the game. The A&E department is incredibly busy this summer. We want the public to understand that anybody who visits the h
30、ospital solely to play the game will provide an unwanted distraction to the important work of the hospital. Im also aware of various reports in the media of unsafe areas that the game has been played in.”“Royal Stoke University Hospital is a safe area where gamers can enjoy Pokemon Go.” Michelle Har
31、ris, the Trusts manager, said the game could still be played by those already in hospital. “We recognize that the Pokemon Go game encourages walking and exercise, which is something that the Trust is equally keen to promote,” she said.There are a number of “walking routes” established throughout the
32、 Trust that can be used to combine walking and playing the game. “Walking just 30 minutes, five times a week, can help reduce the risk of preventable illnesses such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.”There have been several warnings about the game since its UK release. Last week a group of teenagers in Wiltshire were left stranded almost 100ft underground after they got car
