  The basic flag of the United States is one of the world's oldest national flags.Only the basic flags of Austria,Denmark,Great Britain,the Netherlands,Sweden,and Switzerland are older.

  During the discovery and settlement of hat is now the United States,the flags of various European nations were flown over the land,as symbols of possession.later,in the Colonial and Revolutionary War periods,flags representing famous persons,place,and events were flown in the American Colonies.

  The first official flag of the United States was created by Congress on June 14,1777.It consisted of 13 alternate red and white stripes and 13 white stars in a field of blue,representing the 13 colonies that had declared their independence in 1776.Congress adopted a new flag of 15 stars and 15 stripes in 1795,to give representation to the two new states admitted into the Union,Vermont and Kentucky.

  By 1817,there were 20 states in the Union,and it became apparent that adding one stripe for each new state would destroy the shape of the flag.As a result,Congress in 1818 restored the original design of 13 stripes and provided that each state was to be represented by one star.In 1912 President William H.Taft made the first official provision for the arrangement of the stars.He ordered that there be six even rows of eight stars each Previously the arrangement of the stars had been left to the flag-maker fancy.

  The evolution of the Stars and Stripes reflects the growth of the United States.After the admission of Hawaii into the Union in 1959,the flag was officially changed for the 26th time since its creation.

There are many government flown in the United states in addition to the national flag.Among them are the president's and vice-president's flags and those of the federal departments and some federal agencies.Each state in the Union has an official flag.The United States Navy uses special flags for signaling.

Have you ever been to the beautiful country of Holland and its capital Amsterdam? Anyone who has traveled to Amsterdam would probably agree on one thing: Amsterdam’s story is a tale of two cities—one during the day and a completely different one at night.

  During the day, the largest city in Holland sits quietly on the Amstel River. You can rent a bicycle, visit the Van Gogh or Anne Frank museum, or take a water taxi. But when the sun goes down, the partying begins. In the big clubs and in coffee shops, tourists gather to hang out, talk politics and smoke.

  Several areas of the city clearly show the two worlds that rule Amsterdam. And they’re all within a short taxi ride of each other. For example, Dam Square attracts daytime sightseers to its festivals, open markets, concerts and other events. Several beautiful and very popular hotels can be found there. And there’s the Royal Palace and the Magna Plaza shopping mall.

But at night party-seekers come to the square. Hip hop or funk music is heard there. So if you come, be ready to dance. The clubs don’t close down until 4 am.

And while you’re there, check out the various inexpensive ways to tour the city. Don’t worry about getting lost. Although Dutch is the official language, most people in Amsterdam speak English and are happy to help you with directions. And you’ll notice that half the people in the streets are on bicycles they rent.

  Amsterdam also has a well-planned canal system. For about 10 dollars, you can use the canal bus or a water taxi to cruise (巡游) the "Venice of the North".

 The city has a historic past. One impressive place to visit is the Anne Frank House on Nine Streets. It was there that the young Jewish girl wrote her famous diary during World War II. Visitors can view Anne’s original diary and climb behind the bookcase to the room where she and her family hid from the Nazis for two years.

59. The following means of transport are available to visitors in Amsterdam EXCEPT __________.

A. a carriage.                B. a bicycle.                 C. a canal bus.                     D. a water taxi.

60. When getting lost, a visitor can ask natives for directions in           .

A. only Dutch             B. Dutch or English              C. only English          D. Spanish and English

61. What can you learn about by visiting the Anne Frank House?

A. The happy experience of a girl survivor.     B. The glorious past of Amsterdam.

C. The hard life of the Jewish in World WarⅡ.    D. The hobbies of the Dutch.

62. The passage is intended to           .

A. call up people’s memories of World WarⅡ    

B. tell readers what A Tale of Two Cities is about

C. instruct visitors what to do and see in Holland

D. offer readers some information about Amsterdam

  More than I realized, Dad has helped me keep my balance.

  When I was growing up, I was embarrassed to be seen with my father.He was severely disabled and very   1  , and when we walked together, his hand on my arm for   2  , people would stare.I would inwardly feel uncomfortable at the unwanted   3  .If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never   4   that he knew.

  It was   5   to coordinate(调整)our steps-his hesitant, mine impatient-and because of that, we didn’t   6   much as we went along.But as we started out, he always said, “You set the   7  .I will try to follow you.”

  Our usual walk was to or from the subway, which was   8   he got to work.He went to work despite illnesses and nasty weather.He almost never missed a day and would   9   it to the office   10   others couldn’t.A matter of pride.

  He never talked about himself as an object of pity, nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or   11  .What he looked for   12   others was a “good heart” and if he found one, the   13   was good enough for him.

  Now that I am older, I believe that his idea is a proper   14   by which to judge people, even though I   15   don’t know exactly what a “good heart” is.  16   I know the times when I don’t have one myself.

  He has been gone many years now, but I think of him often.I wonder if he   17   I was unwilling to be seen with him during our   18  .Now I am sorry that I never told him how sorry I was for my feeling   19   to be with him in public and how unworthy I felt to be his daughter.I think of him when I complain about trifles(something unimportant), when I am envious of another’s good fortune, and when I don’t possess a“good heart”.

  At such times I put my hand on his arm to   20   my balance, and say, “You set the pace.I will try to follow you.”

注意:每个空格只填1个单词。

  Many people would like to watch sport matches.First, you need to know about audience manners.

  Most sporting arenas(竞技场)have rules for spectators written on the back of the tickets.Read your ticket carefully before you arrive.Try to reach your seat half an hour before the start of the event and don't leave when a game is in progress.When you leave, remember to take away your soft drink bottles and other rubbish.

  During exciting games, try to control yourself.Don't criticize the performance of players and coaches.Be careful with your words, since some may cause anger among other people in the audience.

  Applause is a special form of body language you can use to communicate with players, but you should do it properly.When players first appear, clap your hands together to welcome them, but don't go on for too long.After an excellent performance, applaud warmly.If someone fails, your applause will help encourage them.

  Applause is not welcome, however, while players need to keep their concentration.Various sports have various rules for the audience.

  Enjoying artistic gymnastics silence.But lots of cheering can really help basketball and football players.Snooker and table tennis courtside behavior includes a ban on flash photography.Mobile phones are not allowed in shooting centers.

  To be a good spectator, you should take time to learn the game-specific rules and related culture of each event
