I was a nurse who worked in a children's hospital.One evening there was a    36   dance at the hospital.Most of the doctors and nurses would be there,but of course some had to be   37   to look after the children.and I was not of the   38   ones who were free to go to the dance.I liked dancing very much, so   39    I had to start work that evening while my   40     were getting ready to go to the dance,I felt very   41   for myself.

I went to each   42   child one after another and said good-night,  43  I came to one little boy whom I Was very fond of.His name was Dick,and he was eleven years old,but he   44   talked like an adult(成年人).Poor Dick had a very   45   illness,and now he was hardly able to   46  any part of his body except his hands.I knew he would never get   47  better,but he was always happy and always   48  about other people instead of himself.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

Our maths test started and I was sitting there and working away quite quickly.I looked around with 15 minutes left,because I had finished and was checking my test.

I noticed something very special!

Mr.Ward was staring right at one of the kids that seemed to be only halfway done with his test.Every test we took,there was always one boy hurrying at the last minute to finish his test.It was Tony.He would turn the pages and you saw blank spot(空白)after blank spot.Sometimes I even saw entire pages that were left blank.Mr.Ward didn't take his eyes off Tony.It seemed strange to me.For the rest of the test,Mr.Ward watched Tony as he struggled anxiously,turning papers back and forth and writing anxiously and erasing even more anxiously.He seemed to use his calculator(计算器) a lot more than he needed.

After the test was finished,Mr.Ward gave his end of the year speech,basically along the lines of good luck and good job.Then I saw him go to Tony and tell him to go into the hall.

Mr.Ward walked out of the room and went into the hall silently.He closed the door and from that moment on,I heard about 4 minutes of Mr.Ward shouting at Tony.He got his test paper torn up and a zero for the end of the year exam and also failed for the term and had to take summer school.

That was the first and the last time that I had seen Mr.Ward ever shout like that.Obviously Tony had written his answers inside the sleeve(外壳)of the calculator and every time he was“using his calculator”he was really looking at the formulas (公式)and other information he had written inside of the sleeve,which was all done without success because Mr.Ward noticed it a mile away.

56.From the passage we know that         

    A.Mr.Ward disliked his students

    B.Tony wasn't good at maths

    C.Tony worked at his test quickly

D.the author was trying to help Tony out

57.The underlined word“lines”in Paragraph 4 refers to     

    A.the maths tests    B.the maths papers

C.the summer school  D.Mr.Ward's speech

58.The boy used his calculator again and again because he        

    A.wanted to see what was wrong with it

    B.needed to add the numbers

    C.wanted to see what he had written inside the sleeve of it

D.felt too frightened to use it properly with Mr.Ward staring at him

59.We can infer from this passage that         

    A.Mr.Ward was a new teacher

    B.Tony asked the writer for help in his test

    C.Mr.Ward regretted having let Tony fail the test

D.the students were taking the final-term exam

B

If you travel to a new exhibit at the San Francisco Greenhouse of Flowers,you will have a chance to see some meat-eating plants.Take bladderworts,a kind of such plant,for example.They appear so small and grow in a quiet pool.But these are the fastest-known killers of the plant kingdom,able to catch a small insect(昆虫)in 1/50 of a second using a trap(陷阱) door!

Once the trap door closes on the animal falling into it,the enzymes(酶)similar to those in the human stomach slowly digest(消化)the insect.When dinner is over,the plant open the trap door and is ready for trap again.

Meat-eating plants grow mostly in wet areas with soil that doesn't offer much food value.In such conditions,these amazing plants have developed insect traps to get their nutritional(营养)needs over thousands of years.North America has more such plants than any other continent.

Generally speaking,the traps may have attractive appearance to fool the eye,like pitcher plants,which get their name because they look like beautiful pitches(a container like a bottle)full of honey.

The Asian pitch plant,for example,has bright colors and an attractive half-closed cover.Curious insects are attracted to come close and take a drink,then fall down the slippery wall to their deaths.

Hair-like growths along the pitch walls ensure that nothing can escape,and the digestive enzymes can get to work.A tiny insect can be digested in a few hours,but a fly takes a couple of days.

Some of these pitches are large enough to hold two gallons(7.5liters).Meat-eating plants only eat people in science movies,but sometimes a bird or other small animals will discover that a pitcher plant isn't a good place to get a drink.

60.From the first paragraph,we can know that meat-eating plants can   

    A.catch 50 small insects in a second  B.catch an insect in the shortest time

C.be found floating on a quiet lake  D.notice an insect in 1/50 of a second

61.If the trap door of a meat,eating plant is closed,the plant   

    A.is fooling insects into taking a drink    B.is producing honey

C.is attracting insects to come close    D.is enjoying a dinner

62.Meat-eating plants can grow in wet and poor soil because they   

    A.can get nutrition from animals       B.don't need much food value

C.can make the most of such conditions  

D.have developed digestive enzymes

63.We learn from the text that meat-eating plants         

    A.are big and tall             B.like to grow in dry land

C.look bright and beautiful    D.are usually covered with hair

C

Not all children who grow up inside a culture are completely influenced(影响)by another culture.Some young people find that they are more interested in nature or the culture of other country at a very young age.

The most famous painter in Victoria's history is Emily Carr.She was born in 1871 and,as a child,she discovered that walking in the woods appealed more to her than playing with other children.She discovered she was more interested in wandering in the streets of old Victoria than playing at home with dolls(玩具娃娃)and spending her time brushing her hair and putting pretty ribbons(丝带)in it.Emily was a little girl who spent much of her childhood in Beacon Hill Park,which was very close to her family home.Drawing fascinated(使……着迷)her,and she also liked to play with the animals she kept as pets.She had ducks and chickens,and even a crow.In later life she had several dogs and pet monkeys too! She often wandered around the streets of Victoria and Was particularly interested in the First Nations people and the Chinese people she saw in Victoria's Chinatown.Their culture and way of dressing seemed different from her own.

At the age of sixteen she began to study drawing seriously.She finally traveled to San Francisco and Paris to study art,but always returned to her beloved forests of the Pacific Northwest in the Victoria area.

As she became a young,strong and independent woman,Emily loved the free and simple lifestyle she saw the First Nations people living.In the summer of 1895 she went on an expedition(远征探险)with two other women to explore the wilderness along the Cowichan River that runs through Duncan,just north of Victoria.

64.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?

    A.Some children may be attracted by nature or foreign culture.

    B.The relationship of children and culture.

    C.Some children live in foreign culture.

D.All children like their own culture.

65.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined phrase“appealed…to?

A.Surprised.    B.Interested.    C.Disappointed.D.Encouraged.

66.What can we infer from the second paragraph?

    A.Emily Carr was a well-known painter.

    B.Emily Carr was a very strange girl.

    C.Dolls and ribbons were what ordinary girls liked.

D.Dolls and ribbons were what Emily Carr liked.

67.Emily learned painting in      

    A.the streets of Victoria       B.Victoria's Chinatown

C.San Francisco and Paris    D.the forests of the Pacific Northwest

The British colony(殖民地)of Bermuda is a top summer-time escape.Yet,even through October,Bermuda isn't ready to stop for the winter.During this month,world-class festivals on the island keep things lively and the weather remains comfortable enough for Bermuda shorts and bathing suits.

In October,Bermuda hosts two major festivals-the Bermuda Music Festivals and the Bermuda Culinary Arts(厨艺)Festival.The 10th anniversary Bermuda Music Festival begins October 5 and includes three days of performances at the Royal Naval Dockyard on Bermuda's West End.Main stage performers include Joss Stone,Patti Labelle,and Al Green,and famous local Bermudian artists.General admission tickets start $60 for one day or $160 for a three-day pass.

Starting October 21,the Culinary Arts Festival brings some of North America's top chefs(厨师) to the island for four days of food and wine tastings,conferences,and cooking competitions.The chefs present include Todd English and Michael Lomonaco,among others.Three-day festival passes start at $649 per person,but you can also buy separate tickets for individual(个体的)events.

Even if you don't attend one of the festivals, there's still plenty to do.With mostly sunny days and temperatures averaging around 79 degrees,the weather is just right for joining in Bermuda's two favorite pastimes-golf and tennis.With fewer visitors on the island than during the summer,you may have an easier time getting the best times or a place on the courts.It's also still warm enough to enjoy the island's pink sand beaches and go swimming,because the water keeps the summer's heat longer than the air.Of course,you can always shop in the city of Hamilton's upscale(质优价高的)small goods and arts and crafts shops.

68.The Culinary Arts Festival lasts        

    A.from October 5 to 7      B.from October 5 to 8

C.from October 21 to 24    D.from October 21 to 25

69.The best time to travel to Bermuda is               

A.spring    B.summer    C.autumn D.winter

70.This text is most probably a piece of         

A.advertisement B.introduction    C.news  D.notice

71.According to the text which of the following statements is true?

    A.In winter the travelers can't swim in the sea.

    B.Bermuda is an island controlled by the UK

    C.The two festivals fall on the same period of October

D.Bermuda's two major festivals in October are mainly for the British.

Electric books could change reading,but people ought to consider their far-reaching effect as well.“The e-book promises to cause a slow destruction on life as we know it,”Jason Ohler, professor of technology assessment(评估),university of Alaska Southeast in Juneau, warned the World Future Society,Bethesda,Md.His assessment weighed the pros and cons of e-book technology's effect on social relationships,the environment,the economy,etc. Before you open an e-book, consider that disadvantages.

They increase tiredness of eyes because of poor-made screen,replace a relatively cheap commodity(商品)with a more expensive one,and displace workers in printing book production and traditional publishing,E-books make it easy to share information,therefore having an effect on copyright agreements and reducing pay to the authors,as well as bringing non-biodegradable (不可生物降解)rubbish.

On the other hand, e-books save paper and trees,reduce the heavy work of the carrying and storing of printed books,develop ability in learning by oneself and make reading an experience of working with others online.They also offer new jobs to writers and artists and encourage self publishing.

Besides,Ohler points out,e-books should gain society's agreements if a few conditions are met:make them biodegradable and recyclable(可循环的),solve the problem of eye tiredness,be sure the have-nots get the technology,and support e-book training in schools and businesses.

72.What is the author's purpose of writing the passage?

    A.Warn people of the disadvantages of e-books.

    B.Call on people not to use e-books.

    C.Blame schools that don't provide e-books.

D.Encourage people to use e-books.

73.We learn from the text that Ohler      

    A.is against the use of e-books.       B.prefers e-books to printed books

C.considers both sides of the e-books  D.doesn't like e-books at all

74.What is e-books' disadvantage on social relationship?

    A.They offer new jobs only for writers.

    B.Fewer and fewer people will respect writers.

    C.They may have a bad effect on some traditional trades.

D.They separate people from one another.

75.What does Ohler suggest regarding the use d e-books?

    A.The society should ensure the poor are able to use the technology.

    B.The schools should forbid the use of e-books if they can't reduce eye tiredness.

    C.The society should not agree to the use of e-books even if they are recyclable.

D.The schools should solve the present problems of e-books.

Dear Lora,

I read your letter in the magazine.I know that you want to work part-time this summer.But your parents don't agree with you.

I think your parents may have their reasons.They may regard learning as the most important task for you.Perhaps they'd like you to make use of this summer holiday to study.Besides, they may think you are too young to work.

My advice for you is this:you'd better have a talk with your parents.If they agree, you should make a detailed plan for your study and work,ask your friends to work together with you,and tell your parents not to worry about you because you are old enough to manage things properly.

Anyway,I wish you a pleasant summer.

                                                          Yours truly,

                                                             Li Hua

Now,here's Some information about our school trip.As usual we will spend the first four days in Paris.We'll have a sightseeing tour of the city and we'll also visit some of the famous places like the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre.From Paris we'll travel down to the south of France near Marseilles by boat.We'll spend five days there.

Last year we went to Paris by coach,but we found that the journey was too long and we didn't have enough time to do everything.So this year we will go there by train.I will provide more information about the schedule later.

There will be 80 students on the trip.We will travel in three groups and there will be three teachers with each group respectively.I will go with Group One.I hope that everyone on the trip will have a good time, but please remember that it is an educational visit, not a holiday.There will be some swimming and other sports,but we are going to France to study French culture and to use the French language as much as possible.
