题目列表(包括答案和解析)
☆Locks
You have a special card which operates the electronic lock on your room door and a key for the main door of the door of the hotel. These are your responsibility and should never be lent to anyone, including your fellow classmates. If you lose them you will be charged £20 per replacement. Do not leave your room unlocked even for short periods. Unfortunately, theft from student hotels is very common and insurance companies will not pay for stolen goods unless you can prove that your room was broken into by force.
☆Visitors
There are rarely any rooms available for visitors, except at the end of the summer term. Stan Jenkins, the hotel manager, will be able to tell you and can handle the booking. A small charge is made. Stan also keeps a list of local guesthouses, with some information about what they’re like, price, etc. You are also allowed to use empty beds for up to three nights, with the owner’s permission (for example, if the person who shares your room is away for the weekend ), but you must inform Stan before your guest arrives, so that he has an exact record of who’s in the building of a fire breaks out. Students are not allowed to charge each other for this.
☆Kitchens
There is a kitchen on each floor where light meals, drinks, etc. maybe prepared. Each has a large fridge and a food cupboard. All food should be stored, clearly marked with the owner’s name, in one of these two places. Bedrooms are too warm for food to be stored, and the cleaners have instructions to remove any food found in them. After using the kitchen, please be sure you do all your washing up immediately and leave it tidy. If you use it late in the evening, please also take care that you do so quietly in order to avoid disturbing people in nearby bedrooms.

In 1883, an engineer named John Roebling intended to build a bridge connecting New York with the Long Island. 1 , experts throughout the world thought it impossible and not 2 .
Roebling couldn't 3 the vision in his mind of this bridge. He knew deep in his heart it could be done. He just had to 4 the dream with someone else. After much persuasion he managed to 5 his son Washington, a young engineer; that the bridge6 could be built.
Working together, the father and son developed concepts of 7 it could be accomplished and how the difficulties could be 8 . With great 9 and inspiration, they hired their crew and began to build their dream bridge.
The project started well, but unfortunately an accident took the life of John. Washington was injured and left with a brain damage, 10 him not being able to walk or talk or even move.
Everyone had a 11 comment to make and felt the project should be trashed. In 12 of his disability, Washington still had a burning 13 to complete the bridge and his mind was still as 14 as ever.
He tried to pass on his 15 to some of his friends. Suddenly an idea 16 him as he lay in hospital. All he could do was move one finger and he decided to make the best 17 of it. By moving this, he slowly developed a code of communication with his wife. He used the method of tapping her arm to tell the engineers what to do. It seemed foolish 18 the project was under way again.
For 13 years Washington lapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife's arm, until the Brooklyn Bridge was finally completed.
