13.England is not a big country: from north to south and from east to west it is only about three hundred miles across. But for a small country it has a surprising range of climate. People who have never visited England or who have visited only one part of it often makes the mistake of thinking that it is a cold and wet country. Except for the summer months of June to September, this is probably true of the north of England and the Midlands. In the south, however, the climate is much more pleasant. One result is that when people retire from the job in the north, they often prefer to move down to the south.
  Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the southwest, which consists of (is made up of) the counties of Devon and Cornwall, where palm trees, bamboo and many semitropical plants grow well. Flowers and vegetables ripen as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere. Farmers in the areas gain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier. In winter there may be several feet of snow in other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the southwest. This may be one of the reasons why the southwest is one of England"s most popular holiday areas.

The distance from the center of England to south coast is about ______.

A．one hundred miles
B．three hundred miles
C．one hundred and fifty miles
D．six hundred miles

14.

19.A very strange old man used to live in our town. He didn"t do anything as the rest of people did. He lived alone and didn"t talk to anybody.

25.Every year gray whales migrate from the Bering Sea in Alaska to the Baja Peninsula in Mexico.
  Eleven gray whales have died in the San Francisco Bay in the last three weeks. No one knows why the whales are dying.
  Last year 270 whales died along the whales" migration route. Many people think starvation is the cause. This year the dead whales seem to have more blubber (fat) on them.
  Twenty years ago, the gray whale was listed as an endangered species.
  Some scientists think that the larger number of whales makes it hard to find enough food. More whales create more pressure on the food supply, a supply that some scientists say may have dwindled as a result of the warm waters of E1 Nino.
  Most of the whales have been dead for many days before they are found and studied. This makes it hard to find the reason for death.
