题目1单选题
A hunter had found a piece of forest where there were plenty of animals to hunt. The only trouble was that the place was very difficult to get to. He returned from his first visit to the place in late autumn, and could not get back until the snows melted in the following spring. Then he went to the pilot of a small plane, who earned his living by carrying hunters over parts of the country where there were no roads and no railways, and asked him to take him back to his favorite piece of forest. The pilot did not know the place, so the hunter showed it to him on the map, "But there is nowhere to land there, man!" said the pilot, "I have flown over that part of the country on my way to other places, and I know that we can't land anywhere between this river and these mountains.""I thought you were a wonderful pilot,"said the hunter."Some of my friends said you could land a plane on a postage stamp." "That's right," answered the pilot, "I can land a plane where nobody else can. But I tell you there is nowhere to land in the place you are talking about." "And what if I tell you that another pilot did land me there last spring?" said the hunter. "Is that true?"asked the pilot. "Yes, it-is. I swear it." Well, this pilot could not let himself be beaten by another, so he agreed to take the hunter. When they reached the place, the hunter pointed out a small spot without trees in the middle of the forest, with a steep rise at one end. The pilot thought that there was not enough room to land there, but the hunter said that the other pilot had done so the year before, so down went the plane. When it came to the rise, it turned right over onto its back. As the hunter climbed out, he smiled happily and said, "Yes, that is exactly how the other pilot managed it last time." 1.What does the passage say about the piece of forest the hunter likedA.

题目6单选题
The legal limit for driving after drinking is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 milliliters of blood when tested. But there is no sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach this limit. It varies with each person depending on your weight, your sex, if you've eaten and what sort of drinks you've had. Some people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks. In fact, your driving ability can be affected by just one or two drinks. Even if you're below the legal limit, you could still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving has been affected by alcohol. It takes about one hour for the body to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink. So, if you have a heavy drinking session in the evening, you might find that your driving ability is still affected the next morning, or you could even find that you're still over the legal limit. In a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had had the more certain they were that they could drive a test course through a set of movable posts…and less able they were to do it! So the only way to be sure you're safe is not to drink at all. Alcohol is a major cause of road traffic accidents. One in three of the drivers killed in road accidents have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit, and road accidents after drinking are the biggest cause of death among young men. More than half of the people stopped by the police to take a breathalyzer(呼吸测醉器) test have a blood alcohol concentration more than twice the legal limit. 6. Can people be sure how much they can drink below the legal limitA. Yes, if they know how much they have drunkB. Yes, if they eat food firstC. No, because they don't know about the legal limitD. No, they can never be sure
