16．Homing pigeons are placed in a training program from about the time they are twenty-eight days of age．They are taught to enter the loft（阁楼） through a trap and to exercise above and around the loft and gradually they are taken away for short distance in wicker baskets and released．They are then expected to find their way home in the shortest possible time．
In their training flights or in actual races，the birds are taken to prearranged distant points and released to find their way back to their own lofts．Once the birds are liberated，their owners，who are standing by at the home lofts，anxiously watch the sky for the return of their entries．Since time is of the essence （本质） the speed with which the birds can be induced to enter the loft trap may make the difference between gaining a win or a second place．
The head of a homing pigeon is comparatively small，but its brain is one quarter larger than that of the ordinary pigeon．The homing pigeon is very intelligent and will continue to the point of stubbornness （顽强）；some have been known to fly a hundred miles off course to avoid a storm．
Some homing pigeon experts claim that this bird is gifted with a form of built-in radar（雷达） that helps it find its own loft after hours of flight，for hidden under the head feathers are two very sensitive ears，while the sharp prominent （突出的） eyes can see great distances in daytime．
Why do homing pigeons fly home？They are not unique in this inherent skill； it is found in most migratory birds（迁徙，候鸟），in bees，ants，toads and even turtles，which have been known to travel hundreds of miles to return to their homes．But in the animal world，the homing pigeon alone can be trusted with its freedom and trained to carry out the missions that people demand．
51．What is the purpose of the passage？B
A．To convince the reader to buy a homing pigeon．
B．To inform the reader about homing pigeons and their training．
C．To protect homing pigeons against the threat of extinction．
D．To encourage the owners of homing pigeons to set the birds free．
52．According to the passage，what happens to homing pigeons when they are about a month old？C
A．They are kept in a trap． B．They enter their first race．
C．They begin a training program． D．They get their wings clipped and marked．
53．According to the passage，what is the difference between a homing pigeon and an ordinary one？D
A．The span of the wings． B．The shape of the eyes．
C．The structure of the feathers． D．The size of the brain．
54．Why does the author mention bees，ants，toads and turtles in the last paragraph？C
A．To describe some unusual kinds of pets．
B．To measure distances traveled by various animals．
C．To compare their home-finding abilities with those of homing pigeons．
D．To interest the reader in learning about other animals． 试题答案

These days a green building means more than just the color of the paint. Green building can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories, and offices.
Green building means “reducing the impact (影响) of the building on the land”Taryn Holowka of the U.S Green Building Council in Washington, D. C. said.
According to Holowka, buildings account for(占了) 65 percent of total U.S. electricity use.
But green buildings can reduce energy and water use. Also, the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways, so that people can drive their cars less. That could be good for the environment, because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution. Green buildings are often built on developed land, so that the buildings don't destroy forests.
Marty Dettling is the project manager for a building that put these ideas into action. The Solaire has been called the country's first green high-rise building. According to Dettling, “We've reduced our energy use by one-third and our water by 50 percent.”
The Solaire cuts energy in part by using solar power. “On the lace(边) of the building we have solar panels which change the sun's energy into electricity,” Dettling explained.
The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room. In addition, the building has lots of windows, allowing people to use the sun for light during the day. The Solaire cuts water by reusing it.
Not everyone is eager to move into a green building, however. Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources. Anyhow, Holowka said, “It's going to be big.”
1.A green building is often built on an area of land________.
A. which has thick forests around
B. which has already been developed for building
C. where people of high income live
D. where traveling around by car is most convenient
2.When Holowka says in the last paragraph, "It's going to be big", she means that green buildings________.
A. will be more comfortable
B. will take the place of traditional buildings
C. will become popular in the future
D. will be more environmentally friendly
3.What is the main subject discussed in the text?
A. Dettling designed the first green building in the U. S.
B. Energy shortage calls for buildings of new design.
C. Green buildings help save environment.
D. The Solaire serves as a model of high buildings.
4.Which of the following statements is WRONG?
A. The Solaire can reduce the impact of the building on the land.
B. Everyone is not eager to move into a green building.
C. Marty Dettling has come up with the idea of green buildings.
D. In the U.S, buildings consume(消耗) more than half of the total electricity.
