I thought, “Well, I shall have the last piece.” And I 49 it.
The boy gave a 50 look, and then stood up. As he left he shouted out, “This woman’s mad!” Everyone 51 . That really made me feel silly, but it was even 52 when I finished my coffee and ready to 53 .

Bolivia has a population of three and a half million. About one tenth of the total population are white; one-fourth are mixed Indians and white; and more than half are full-blooded Indians. The government and the industries are under the control of the white people.
The Indians today live in much the same way as their ancestors. Most of them are farmers. Many work in the mines, for mining is the most important industry on Bolivia’s. Of all the mining products, tin is the most important, which makes up three-fourths of all Bolivia’s exports. The eastern slopes of the Andes, since there are very few roads there, are fertile but not highly developed. The two primary means of transportation are river boats and porters. East of the hill region are the great plains where tropical plants are grown. A serious problem for Bolivia is the transport of food from the warm regions, where it is grown to the mountainous regions, where most of the people live.
Bolivia gained its independence from Spain about a hundred years ago. It has been slow in developing, but its rich resources promise a better future in it.

An American researcher has developed a simple device to help people stop snoring. The device limits the movements of the tissues(组织) that cause the unpopular sound .Snoring is a common problem .It may prevent a person from getting enough sleep .It may also prevent enough oxygen from reaching heart and lungs during sleep. But for most people, snoring affects relations with another person who must sleep in the same room.
Snoring happens when the sleeping person breathes with the mouth open .In the back of the mouth the tissues surrounding the entrance of the throat are soft. As the person breathes, the movement of the air around the soft tissues causes them to move or vibrate(振动,摇摆) .This tissue movement causes the sound we call snoring. A number of possible solutions have been proposed. Some devices keep the mouth shut. They force the patient to breathe only through the nose .A medical operation is also possible. Other devices catch the sound of snoring and then wake the patient .The new anti-snoring device was developed by a dentist ,George Wagner of the Indian University School of Dentistry. He developed a piece of plastic that fits up against the inside of the mouth. The device keeps the soft tissues from vibrating and making the snoring noise. It is worn only at night .Doctor Wagner said that the simple device has ended several patients’ snoring problem in a simple way.
61. The underlined word “snoring” (in paragraph 1) probably means .
A. speaking while one sleeps B. dreaming while one sleeps
C. noises made while one sleeps D. sighs given while one sleeps
62. Snoring happens .
A. when dreaming at night, even during the day
B. when breathing with one’s mouth closed
C. when sleeping with one’s mouth open
D. when being poor in health
63. From the passage we know that the simplest and more efficient way to prevent a person from snoring is .
A. to stop the soft tissues from vibrating
B. to give the patient a medical operation
C. to wake him/her up as soon as he /she snores
D. to make him/her listen to the sound of snoring

Iceland has energy to spare, and the small country has found a cutting-edge(尖端的) way to reduce its oil dependency. Volcanoes formed the island nation out of ash and lava(熔岩), which heat huge underground lakes to the boiling point. The hot water is piped into cities providing heat for homes, businesses and even swimming pools. The water runs through turbines(涡轮机), providing all the country’s electricity.
Iceland wants to make plans to improve its cars, buses and trucks to run on renewable energy. Iceland has already started by turning water into fuel ----hydrogen(氢) fuel. Here’s how it works: Electrodes (电极) change the water into hydrogen and oxygen molecules(分子). Hydrogen electrons pass through a conductor that creates the current to power an electric engine.
Hydrogen fuel now costs two to three times as much as gasoline, but gets up to three times the distance than gas, making the overall cost about the same. As an added benefit, there is no carbon(碳) ----only water steam.
In the capital, Reykjavik, they are already testing three hydrogen-powered electric buses. The drivers are impressed. “I like these buses better because with hydrogen you get no pollution,” said bus driver Rognvaldur Jonatanison. By the middle of this century, all Icelanders will be required to run their cars only on hydrogen fuel, meaning no more gasoline.
“If we make hydrogen and use that as a fuel for transportation then we can run the whole society on our own local renewable energy sources,” said Marie Mack. Icelanders are showing the world that by making fuel from water, it is possible to kick the oil habit.
68. From Paragraph 1 we may infer that ________.
A. Iceland lacks natural resources
B. volcanoes do more good than harm to Iceland
C. Iceland only depends on oil for energy
D. Iceland’s electricity is made from coal
69. Which of the following is necessary during the period of turning water into fuel according to Paragraph 2?
A. Lava B. Electric engine C. Conductor D. Turbine
70. The cars with hydrogen as fuel ________.
A. are environmentally friendly B. are cheaper
C. run much faster D. will make useful steam
71. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Pollution saying goodbye to the world. B. Iceland becoming a country without oil
C. Iceland began to turn water into fuel D. Man able to kick the oil habit

Any mistake made in the printing of stamp raises its value(价值)to stamp collectors. A mistake on a two - penny(便士, 英国辅币)stamp has made it worth million and a half times its face value.
Do you think it impossible? Well, it is true. And this is how it happened.
The mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in the former British colony (前英殖民地)of Mauritius, a small island in the Indian Ocean. In 1847 an order(订货单)for stamps was sent to London. Mauritius was about to become the fourth country in the world to put out stamps.
Before the order was filled and the stamps arrived from England, a big dance was planned by the Commander - in - chief of all the armed forces on the island. The dance would be held in his house and letters of invitation would be sent to all the important people in Mauritius. Stamps were badly needed to post the letters. Therefore, an islander, who was a good printer, was told to copy the pattern of the stamps. He carelessly put the words “Post Office” instead of “Post Paid”, two words seen on stamps at that time, on the several hundred that he printed.
Today, there are only twenty - six of these misprinted stamps left- fourteen One penny Reds and twelve Two -penny Blues. Because there are so few Two - penny Blues and because of their age, collectors have paid as much as $ 16, 800 for one of them.
72.The mistake on a two- penny stamp has made________.
A. a lot of trouble for the post office
B. Mauritius the fourth country to put out stamps
C. it worth half a million times its face value
D. it worth as much as sixteen thousand and eight hundred dollars
73.In 1847 most countries of the world were ________.
A. not yet using stamps B. printing stamps in Mauritius
C. printing their own stamps D. collecting valuable stamps
74.The mistake on the island -printed stamps was in the________.
A. price B. colour
C. spelling of words D. wrong use of words
75.“Post Paid” means________.
A. the same as “Post Office”
B. the Post Office is the place to buy stamps
C. money has been paid for the stamp
D. the letter must be posted
