　　Ⅱ.閱讀理解people would not test medicines on animals.Such experiments are stressful and sometimes painful for animals, and expensive and time-consuming for people.Yet animal experimentation is still needed to help bridge vast gaps in medical knowledge.That is why there are some 50 to 100 million animals used in research around the world each year.

　　Europe, on the whole, has the world's most restrictive laws on animal experiments. Even so, its scientists use some 12 million animals a year, most of them mice and rats, for medical research.Official statistics show that just 1.1 million animals are used in research in America each year.But that is misleading.The American authorities do not think mice and rats are worth counting and, as these are the most common laboratory animals, the true figure is much higher.Japan and China have even less comprehensive data than America.

　　Now Europe is reforming the rules governing animal experiments by restricting the number of animals used in labs.Alternatives to animal testing, such as using human tissue or computer models, are now strongly recommended.In addition, sharing all research results freely should help to reduce the number of animals for scientific use.At present, scientists often share only the results of successful experiments.If their findings do not fit the hypothesis being tested, the work never sees the light of day.This practice means wasting time, money, and animals' lives in endlessly repeating the failed experiments.

　　Animal experimentation has taught humanity a great deal and saved countless lives.It needs to continue, even if that means animals sometimes suffer.Europe' s new measures should eventually both reduce the number of animals used in experiments and improve the way in which scientific research is conducted.

　　16．What is the main idea of this passage?

　　A．The success of animal experiments should be ensured.

　　B．Ban on the use of animals in the lab should be enforced.

　　C．Greater efforts need to be taken to reduce the number of lab animals.

　　D．Scientists should be required to share their research results with each other.

　　A．America uses only about 1.1 million lab animals per year.

　　B．Europe does not use mice and rats as lab animals at all.

　　C．Britain does not use as many lab animals as China does.

　　D．Japan has limited data on the number of lab animals used each year.

　　18．Which of the following is mentioned as an alternative to replace animal experiments?

　　A．Statistical studies.

　　C．DNA planted in animals.

　　D．Tissue from dead animals.

　　19．What usually happens to unsuccessful animal experiments?

　　A．They are not revealed to the public.

　　Today we will explain a very old saying that has had a big influence on rock-and-roll music. That saying is “A rolling stone gathers no moss”．It has several meanings. One meaning is that a person who never settles down in one place will not be successful. Another is that someone who is always moving, with no roots in one place, avoids responsibilities.

　　This proverb was said to be first used in the 1500s. But in the 1960s, the expression “rolling stone” became famous in the world of rock-and-roll music. It became the name of a song, a rock group and a magazine.

　　Experts say it all started with a song by the American singer and guitarist Muddy Waters. He was one of the country's top blues musicians until his death in 1983. His music influenced singers like Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan. In 1950, Muddy Waters recorded a song called “Rolling Stone”．d themselves “the world's greatest rock-and-roll band”．Bob Dylan released his song “Like a Rolling Stone”．It is one of his best known and most influential works.n her own，“with no direction home, like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone”．a(chǎn) young man named Jann Wenner started a magazine and he named it “Rolling Stone”．The magazine reported on rock music and the popular culture that the music created. By 1971，“Rolling Stone” had become the leading rock music and counterculture publication. It is still popular today.

　　20．Which person can be described as a rolling stone according to the proverb?

　　A．A person who always changes his jobs.

　　B．A person who has a successful career.

　　C．A person who has no family.

　　D．A person who is out of work.

　　21．All of them are musicians except ________．

　　A．Elvis Presley

　　B．Bob Dylan

　　C．Muddy Waters

　　D．Jann Wenner.書面表達(dá)最近我校舉辦了一次英語書法比賽。大部分同學(xué)們積極參與，但少數(shù)同學(xué)書寫不好，也不愿改善。請(qǐng)你根據(jù)以下提示，給《二十一世紀(jì)報(bào)》寫一篇短文，分析該現(xiàn)象產(chǎn)生的原因并發(fā)表自己的看法。

Many students took an active part in the activity.

　　However, some students who are poor at handwriting don't want to improve their handwriting. The reasons are as follows：they think that there is no need to waste time improving their handwriting because they can just use a computer. On the other hand, they believe that they are too busy with their studies to find time to practice. Besides, practicing handwriting is so difficult that they can't make great progress in a short time.

　　In my view, students' beautiful and neat handwriting is beneficial to themselves. What's more, good handwriting is always appreciated by people, especially by teachers. Therefore, more emphasis should be placed on this aspect in future.
