    4．You have signed on for months of hard work．You're far from home．The pay is bad．The food is worse．You find rare comfort in the simple songs that you and your work mates sing．
    This is what a sailor's life was like in the 1800s．The songs sung aboard ships were called sea shanties．You have probably heard a shanty or two yourself．Many of these songs have lasted through the years．They can often be found in surprising places today．
    Sea Shanties Then…
    Sea shanties were valuable friends to sailors．Some shanties，such as"Blow the Man Down，"had lively words and melodies．They broke up the boredom of long trips．Other shanties，including one called"Oh，Shenandoah，"had a sadder tone．They helped seafarers express longing and loneliness．Still other shanties，such as"Leave Her，Johnny，"let sailors complain about their hard lives．
    But the first job of the sea shanty was to help the men work as a team．Ships had sails that were controlled by a system of moving ropes．For many jobs，all of the sailors had to pull on the ropes at once．
    When faced with such a job，the shantyman，or song leader，began a tune．The crew joined in on the chorus，and it might have sounded like a playful sing-along．But when the sailors came to a certain beat，they knew it was the signal to pull together with all their might．
    Raising or lowering the anchor called for a rhythm with a slow，steady motion．Then，the shantyman would choose a shanty with a slow，steady beat to match the job．Each duty on the sailing ship had its own rhythm and its own kind of song．
    …and Sea Shanties Now
    Sea shanties have been passed down to us in much the same way as folk stories．Long ago，someone came up with a memorable idea and melody．Others repeated the shanty，often adding changes along the way．
    Over time，people saw the sea shanty for the treasure it was．Like any treasure，shanties were collected．Many were written down in books．
    Where do the old shanties appear now？Today's musical artists love the fun，beauty，and history of these songs．Many musicians，including Bob Dylan and Harry Belafonte，have their own versions of"Oh，Shenandoah．"One group，the Robert Shaw Chorale，recorded a collection of shanties．
    In Hollywood，shanties serve as a symbol of the sea．A fisherman sings the shanty"Spanish Ladies"in the film Jaws．The cartoon character Woody Woodpecker whistles"Blow the Man Down"when he finds himself aboard a pirate's ship．
    Today，shanties tell us about shipboard life more than one hundred years ago．They help us understand what the working sailor sang and perhaps thought about．
    So the next time you're doing a boring task，try making up a tune to go along with it．Time may pass more quickly，and your job may seem easier．Also，you may understand why sailors loved those old songs of the sea．

    41．The main purpose of the sea shanty in the 1800s wasB．
    A．to communicate with passing ships
    B．to help sailors work together as a team
    C．to allow sailors to complain about the food
    D．to give sailors an opportunity to record their music
    42．Today，sea shanties are mainly usedD．
    A．to provide material for musical artists to record
    B．to provide a source of music for Hollywood films
    C．to help sailors work together aboard modem ships
    D．to help people understand the lives of sailors of the past
    43．The author uses two subheadings（小标题） within the article in order toC．
    A．compare sea shanties to modem sailing songs
    B．describe how popular sea shanties are with musicians
    C．compare how sea shanties have been used over the years
    D．describe how sea shanties have influenced Hollywood films
    44．Which of these topics would most probably be included in this articleC？
    A．The work of sailors today．
    B．The cost of sailing ships in the 1800s．
    C．Other sailing duties that were made easier by sea shanties．
    D．Some music studios where sea shanties are recorded today．
    45．According to information in the article，a movie director today would most likely use a     shantyA．
    A．to make a scene about sailors more realistic
    B．to give a musician a chance to record the song
    C．to make the crew's daily chores pass more quickly
    D．to express the loneliness of making a film away from home．

    11．One of my most unforgettable experiences occurred on a day last summer，when I was handing out newspapers from door to door．Disappointed（31）at\with\about my study results，I didn't want to go to school any longer，so I found（32）a temporary job during my summer vacation．Because I was poor in knowledge，the manager only asked me to deliver newspapers from house（33）to house．At first，I thought it would be a piece of cake，and I would have no difficulty（34）finishing （finish） it．But to my surprise，when I went to people's houses，I（35）was looked（look） up and down．I could feel they looked down upon（36）me．Although I was discouraged，I still came to another house．A black dog jumped out suddenly，（37）which made me frightened and screamed with fear，and no one came to help me．At that time，I came to realize that delivering newspapers was more difficult than reading in the classroom．I wanted to give up，（38）but I couldn't．I tried my best to do the job better and succeeded（39）finally（final）．From this experience，I have learnt that if we put our heart into it，nothing is（40）impossible （possible）．Now，I am sitting in the classroom，full of happiness，and confidence．

    8．Firefighters had largely tamed a tower of flame and smoke that covered the sun and drove thousands from their homes in the foothill suburbs northeast of Los Angeles，but a week of dangerously windy wildfire conditions and a year of historic dryness meant that this fire and predictable ones to come remained a major threat．
    By nightfall Thursday，the wildfire that swept through about 2 1/2 square miles of brush in the San Gabriel Mountains and destroyed five homes early in the day had its progress stopped and was 30 percent contained．More than 700 firefighters were on the scene，along with 70 engines and a fleet of helicopters and air tankers dropping water and retardant（阻止物）．
    But the National Weather Service said a red-flag warning of extreme fire danger in effect much of the week would remain in place until Friday evening because of low humidity and the chance of the region's infamous Santa Ana winds bursting to 30 mph in the foothills and valleys．
    Some 3，700 people from Glendora and Azusa evacuated at the height of the fire．Glendora residents were allowed to return home Thursday evening，but homes in Azusa remained under evacuation orders．It wasn't clear how many remained empty．
    Fire engines would stay in all the endangered neighborhoods through the night and helicopters were available to fly after dark if it became necessary．Nighttime bursts brought a few flame-ups，but they remained within fire lines．
    Two firefighters had minor injuries and a woman trying to fight the fire near her home suffered a minor burn．Seventeen structures were damaged，including homes，garages，barns and other buildings．At least 10 renters were left homeless when the fire destroyed rental units on the historic grounds of a retreat that once was the summer land of the Singer sewing machine family．Statues of Jesus and Mary stood unharmed near the blackened ruins．However，the main，1920s house was spared．
    Three men in their 20s，including a homeless man，were arrested on suspicion of irresponsibly starting the fire by tossing paper into a campfire in the Angeles National Forest，just north of Glendora．They said they were trying to keep warm and the wildfire appears to have been an accident．They could face state or federal charges．
    61．What's the purpose of the first paragraph？C
    A．To introduce the topic
    B．To arouse readers'interest．
    C．To summarize the main idea
    D．To share the writer's opinion
    62．What do we know about the fire？D
    A．It lasted a week
    B．It started on a Thursday．
    C．It grew wilder at night
    D．It flamed up high at first
    63．What led to the outbreak of the fire？D
    A．Low humidity
    B．Windy fire conditions．
    C．No timely warning
    D．Careless campers．
    64．The underlined word"evacuated"in Paragraph 4 probably meansC．
    A．swept                      
    B．burst                                        
    C．fled                        
    D．endangered
    65．The three young men were arrested becauseB．
    A．they were homeless                                                    
    B．they were to blame for the fire
    C．they wanted to keep warm by the fire                   
    D．they started the fire deliberately．
