第三节: 阅读理解(共20题，每题2分，共40分)

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Hurricane(飓风) Babette reached the northeastern United States today and caused death and destruction everywhere. The killer storm carried winds of 135 miles per hour. The high winds and heavy rains, together with the force of the Atlantic Ocean, created extremely dangerous waves. It is not yet known how many people died or were hurt in this storm, but it is said that the numbers will be very high. The damage to homes, business and crops will run into billions of dollars. Now that the storm is over, the long, slow rebuilding will begin.

With the arrival of the tornado season, the National Weather Service is again telling people how to protect themselves from these deadly storms. The winds from tornadoes are the most violent winds on earth. They can blow up to 400 miles per hour. A tornado looks like a funnel(漏斗). It is also very loud. It may sound like a train coming at you. In fact, the winds from a tornado can pick up a train and throw it around. If a tornado is seen in your area, it is very important that you protect yourself. A basement (地下室) is the safest place to go. Try to wait under a table in the basement. If your building does not have a basement, stay on the ground floor but lie flat under a bed or table. Stay away from windows. If you are outside or in your car, try to find a narrow place to lie down in.

As the area tries to deal with the worst flood of the century , there are many heartwarming stories of people helping other people. From all over the world people have sent food and clothes to help the thousands who have had to leave their homes. Many volunteers have come to help to make sandbags and use them to build walls against the overflowin g river. While the result of this disaster will be terrible for many, it is beautiful to see people coming together to help others and save lives, and property (财产).

On July 16,1960, Jane Goodall, a 26-year-old former secretary from England, began to study the behaviour  of chimpanzees in the wild. Until that time, scientists had mostly observed and studied chimpanzees in laboratories and zoos. Few  scientists had gone to study chimpanzees in the remote areas of Africa where the chimps live. When scientists had studied the chimpanzees in the wild, they hadn't spent long periods of time observing them. Jane Goodall planned to watch chimpanzees in Africa over a ten-year period and see exactly how they behaved. She was not a professional scientist when she started out. Her book, "In the Shadow of Man", tells how she began her project and what she discovered.

As Goodall said in 1973, "I had no qualifications at all. I was just somebody with a love of animals". Her love of animals drew her to Africa where she met Dr. Louis S. B. Leakey. Leakey was a world-famous scientist who was studying how prehistoric people lived. Since chimpanzees are humans' closest living relatives, Leakey thought prehistoric people might have lived in the same ways that chimpanzees live today. Leakey told Goodall that studying chimpanzees might give clues about the way that early people lived.

Leakey asked Goodall to study the chimpanzees on the shores of Lake Tanganyika in Africa. The chimpanzees were very shy and the country was very difficult to travel through. Goodall took on the difficult job of finding and watching the chimpanzees.

41. Jane Goodall decided to study chimpanzees ____.

A. because she was working in a laboratory

B. when she was doing research for a book

C. because of her scientific work in England

D. out of her love for animals
