A
"Depend on yourself" is what nature says to help yourself.
There have been many great men in history. But many of them were very poor in
childhood, and had no uncles, aunts or friends to help them. They could not
depend upon them. Schools were few and not very good. They could not depend
upon them for an education. They saw how it was, and set to work with all their
might to know something. They worked their own way up to fame.
One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, " I
cannot make worthy men of you, but I can help you make men of yourselves."
Some young men have ambitions (雄心) to excel (拔尖) in anything; and they are to be
pitied. They can never accomplish much unless they see their weak points and
change their course. They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as they
live, unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers, and depend
on their own honest efforts.
56. "Depend on yourself" in this passage means "_____".
A. rely on your own efforts B. wait for others to help
C. count on your parents' help D. never accept advice
57. Many great men in history succeeded because _____.
A. they were very poor in childhood
B. they could not depend on schools for an education
C. they made great efforts to learn and work
D. they wanted very much to become famous
58. According to the famous teacher in England, a teacher can _____.
A. make his pupils worthy men
B. help his pupils make themselves useful men
C. make his pupils men of strength and courage
D. help his pupils find a way to fame
59. If young people depend on their own efforts, _____.
A. they are to be pitied
B. they are nothing now and will be nothing in the future
C. they can be ambitious
D. they can be successful in their career
60. Which title best fits this passage?
A. How to Be Famous B. What Nature Says to Us
C. Depend On Yourself D. Dare to Excel
B
Dear Abby,
This is my first letter to you, although I have been reading your column for
many years. I need an outside opinion.
I am a grandmother in my 70s and have just returned from visiting my daughter,
her husband and their three
dearly loved children — all under the age of 5 — and I'm upset with some of
their parenting ways.
For example: They lock the doors to their children's bedrooms at night because
"the children might get out of their beds and wander around the house, and
we may not hear them." If one child gets punished, all three are punished,
and if one child says a "naughty" word, all three are given hot sauce
in the mouth.
I know these parents love their children very much, but are these ways of
disciplining them wise? Please understand, it is not my aim to interfere (干涉).
Gram
Dear Gram,
Children's bedroom door should not be locked. Should a flash fire break out, it
would be a nightmare.
Punishing all the children when only one has earned the punishment is a good
way to make them grow up to hate each other.
Children who use "naughty" words should not be punished with hot
sauce in the mouth. They should be taught the proper and acceptable words to
use instead of the "naughty" words.
Abbey
61. From the passage we can see that Abby is probably _____.
A. a famous writer B. a columnist
C. a friend of Gram's D. a government official
62. Gram's daughter _____.
A. does not love her three children
B. always punishes her children at night
C. is very strict with her children
D. often gives her children hot sauce
63. From the passage you can infer that _____.
A. Gram likes writing letters
B. Gram likes taking care of children
C. Gram likes reading newspapers
D. Gram likes visiting her daughter and her family
64. Gram writes this letter in order to ______.
A. disclose her daughter's ways as a mother
B. criticize her daughter's ways as a mother
C. express her anger about her daughter's ways as a mother
D. get another's opinion about her daughter's ways as a mother
65. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Gram seems to care for her grandchildren very much.
B. Gram is against some of her daughter's ways of treating the children.
C. Abby is in favour of one of Gram's daughter's ways as a mother.
D. Abby agrees with Gram about her daughter's ways as a mother.
C
New ways of building are being tried out everywhere.
There are many new shows to watch!
In England, I saw a 17-story building made right on the ground. First, the
workers dug a deep hole. They built the foundations. This work was the same as
on any building. From then on, the work changed.
On the ground, the men set 40 big jacks (千斤顶). You know what a car jack does. It
lifts a car. These big jacks were to lift each floor of the building. On top of
the 40 jacks, the men first built a roof. Yes the roof of the building.
What next? The jacks lifted the floor one story high. Then the builders worked
on this floor. It was not the bottom floor of the building. Not at all! It was
the top floor. It was on the ground then. But it was going to be Floor 17. The
jacks lifted Floor 17. Under it, the workers built Floor 16. they built it
right on the ground, too.
When Floor 16 was done, the jacks lifted it. Under Floor 16, the men built
Floor 15. And so it went. The bottom floor of the building was made last.
The work went quickly. Under the roof, the men worked even in rain or snow.
They didn't need to climb to high places. And trucks brought things right to
them.
It took only one man to work the jacks. He just pushed a button. Right away,
the jacks began to lift.
In the United States, also, some builders use big jacks. But the jacks are
above the floors, not under them. The floors are made of concrete (混凝土). They are made on
the ground, one on top of another. Strong posts (支柱) run through them.
At first, the floors look like a big pile of pancakes. Then jacks at the top of
the posts lift each floor into place. The top floor makes the roof.
In Texas, I saw a roof made in a new way. A helicopter flew over the building
again and again. Each time, it stopped to put a piece of the roof into place.
The helicopter was like a bird building a nest. What a funny way to make a
roof! But the helicopter built it in one morning. To make a roof like this,
builders take weeks.
66. What makes people feel is most special in this new way of building?
A. The floors are made of concrete.
B. The roof is built first and on the ground.
C. Jacks are used for building.
D. The building is completed in a short time.
67. Which picture shows what the floors described in the 8th and 9th paragraphs
look like at first?
|
68. Which is true about the new way of building that the writer saw in
England?
A. The workers had to climb very high to complete the building.
B. They didn't need a basement.
C. The jacks were controlled by many people.
D. The foundations had to be built first.
69. What's special about the roof made in Texas?
A. It was made by a helicopter.
B. It was made by a bird.
C. It was like a nest.
D. It takes weeks to be built.
70. What is the purpose of the writer in writing this passage?
A. To tell us of his experience in Britain.
B. To show us the advantages of modern machines.
C. To introduce some new ways of building.
D. To show us the power of imagination.
D
The Leaning Tower of Pisa is one of the most famous buildings in the
world. It is famous not because of its beauty or size, but because it leans
dangerously to one side. Each year the tower attracts thousands of visitors
from all around the world.
The leaning tower was founded in the city of Pisa in Italy. It reaches a height
of 180 feet and has 8 storeys. At the top there is a belfry (钟楼). Visitors can
climb to the top and step out for a good view of the city below.
Work on building the tower began in 1174. First, a foundation of stones was
laid 20 metres deep into the soft ground. Tree trunks were used as piles. Then,
the construction of the tower started. But, as the tower was being built, it
began to lean to the south. The work was stopped several times. The builders
took measures to correct the tower's leaning but did not succeed.
Today the tower leans to the south and also curves towards the north. It is
said that the tower has leaned more than 17 feet. Over the past years, various
proposals have been made to stop the tower from leaning further and to prevent
its collapse. Some people would like to pull it down and rebuild it on stronger
foundations. Others have suggested pouring concrete around the base of the
tower to stop it from leaning further. If nothing is done, the tower might
collapse very soon. But until it is rebuilt or straightened, it will remain as
one of the most fascinating architectural mistakes in the world.
请根据文章内容完成下面的句子：
71. Thousands of people come to visit the leaning tower because ____________.
72. The Leaning Tower of Pisa is __________ high.
73. The tower leans to the south because ___________.
74. Besides pulling the tower down and rebuilding it, the idea of
____________________________ is also a suggestion.
75. Which direction does the tower curve in nowadays?

Nowadays TV and the Internet are both regarded as popular media. They have
something in common, but are also different in many ways.
First of all, both of them make money through advertising. Similar to TV, the
Internet is divided into various sections, so the audience or readers can
choose the sections that interest them. Also, both media are loaded with
eye-catching pictures.
On the other hand, TV is different from the Internet in that it provides
clearer moving pictures with sound. This makes people feel as if they are right
on the spot. And TV programmes change every day. This gives people a sense of
fresh excitement. Also, most of the reports on TV are made by professionals.
Unlike TV, some information on the Internet is not updated for a long time. And
it seems that everyone can write on the Internet, so some of the information
from the Internet may not be correct.
In a word, each medium has its own advantages and disadvantages. It's hard to
say which is better than the other.
