第三节 阅读理解 （共20小题；每小题2.5分，满分50分）
A
Visitors to Britain are always complaining about English food. But they do not really know what they are talking about because they rarely get a chance to eat it. Most of the restaurants in large towns have foreign owners and serve foreign food. When visitors are invited to eat in an English home, their hosts often feel they must offer them something foreign. Those of us who do know English food are aware that at its best it can be really very good. On the other hand it is true to say that it is sometimes terrible. Part of the problem is that we are not really interested in food—we eat to live, we do not live to eat. So we don’t generally spend the necessary time and effort needed to cook really good meals. We prefer food that is simple and easy to cook, or ready prepared food which only needs heating up before eating.
You can find that best English food is in the country, where life is slower and people are not in such a hurry. But, of course, most visitors come to London. They come because they are interested in shopping and sightseeing. They do not come because of the food, so why should they complain about it
36. When English people have guests they ______.
A. think it is better to cook some unusual food
B. prefer to take their guests to restaurants
C. have to serve the food their guests are used to having
D. prefer to serve them English food
37. The writer thinks that ______.
A. we live to eat, but not eat to live
B. we do not eat to live, we live to eat
C. we eat to live, but not live to eat
D. we eat to live, we live to eat
38. People like to cook ______.
A. in a complicated way
B. with only fresh vegetables
C. some typical English food
D. in a quick and easy way
39. The last paragraph suggests ______.
A. the criticism of English food by visitors is unfair
B. it is possible to find good English food in towns but it takes time to find
C. apart from food, people also come to go shop－ping and sightseeing
D. if people complain about English food, they will get better food
B
Within a few short years, girls in Europe have be－come heavier smokers than boys according to a British study presented (递交) last week to an international conference on smoking.
Antismoking activists (积极分子) at the second Tobacco or Health conference in the Canary Islands pointed out that while adults were giving up smoking in ever growing numbers, more and more young people were taking up the habit, particularly girls.
One in four 15-year-olds is a regular smoker, ac－cording to a study made in 27 countries in Europe and the United States, Canada and Israel—by Edinburgh
University together with the World Health Organization.
In Western Europe, girls were more likely than boys to smoke. In Germany or in England, one third of the girls were smokers compared to one in four boys. In Eastern Europe, the girls “still fall behind” those in the Western Europe, but were “catching up” quickly, said the study.
The study dealt with the behavior of 15-year-olds in seven European countries over four-year period be－tween 1986 and 1998.
The percentage of young women smoking went from 17 percent to 36 percent in Austria, from 17 per－cent to 28 percent in Norway, from 21 percent to 28 percent in Hungary.
In the seven countries and regions—Austria, Fin－land, Hungary, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and Wales—more girls smoked than boys in 1998, with the exception of Hungary.
40. The study was made by ______.
A. Edinburgh University
B. the World Health Organization
C. Oxford University
D. Edinburgh University and the World Health Or－ganization
41. The country where the number of young women smokers increases fastest is ______.
A. Norway B. Austria
C. Hungary D. Sweden
42. The main idea of the passage is to ______.
A. introduce something about girl smokers in Europe
B. report something interesting happened in England C. describe the present condition of Europe smokers D. warn young people around the world against smoking
C
Martha’s Vineyard (葡萄园) got its name from its discoverer, Artholomew Gasbnold, who named it after his wife Martha, and it was also in memory of the thick growth of wild vines (葡萄) on the land.
The island of Martha’s Vineyard lies south of Cape Cod off the Southern eastern coast of Mas－sachusetts, United States. It is nearly 20 miles long and runs from 2 to 10 miles in width. There are wide, hard beaches on the southern side. The north is hilly, but in the south and eastern parts there are wide areas of open land covered with wild flowers.
The island was discovered early in the 17th cen－tury. The Indians were quiet and friendly, and the new－comers fished for a living, making a lot of money from whaling (捕鲸). With the decline (衰落) of whaling and sailing ships, Martha’s Vineyard was almost for－gotten until about 60 years ago when people began to buy the old houses of the whaling captains and the sheds of the fishermen near the beaches. Now people go there year after year for their summer holidays.
43. In this passage the writer doesn’t tell us ______.
A. how the island got its name
B. the population of the island
C. the scenery of the island
D. the value of the island

B. ship building industry developed rapidly
C. most of the Vineyard lay waste

By now, a rocket will have set off on its 35-million-mile trip to Mars and 　　scientists must be waiting for the results.
　　The rocket will be travelling for six months before it reaches the planet. It contains a number of scientific instruments, including a television camera. Any picture that is taken will have to travel for three minutes before they reach the earth. If the pictures are successful, they may solve a number of problems about Mars and provide information about the markings on its surface which, nearly 100 years ago, the astronomer (天文学家), Schiaparelli, thought to be canals.
　　It will be a long time before any landing on Mars can be tried. This will only be possible when scientists have learned a lot more about the atmosphere that surrounds the planet. If a satellite can one day be put into orbit round Mars, scientists will be able to find out a great deal. An interesting suggestion for measuring the atmosphere around Mars has been made. A rubber ball having a radio transmitter(无线电发报机) could be dropped from a satellite so that it would fall towards the surface of the planet. The radio would tell the rate(速度) at which the ball was slowed down and scientists would be able to calculate how dense the atmosphere is. It may even be possible to drop scientific instruments on to the planet's surface. Only when a great deal more information has been got, will it be possible to plan a manned (载人的) trip to Mars.
51. The first paragraph tells us _______ .
　A. Mars is too far away for people to land on
　B. it will take the rocket half a year to reach Mars
　C. Mars is 53 million miles away from the earth
　D. scientists have well known about the surface of Mars
52. The pictures taken by a television camera _______ .
　A. will have to be put into the scientific instruments
　B. will prove what Schiaparelli thought about is false
　C. will be received by the earth in three minutes' time
　D. can help people do much less research work
53. It seems that _______ might prevent scientists from landing on Mars.
　A. the atmosphere round the planet
　B. the orbit round the planet
　C. having little information
　D. the markings on the planet's surface
54. Having successfully dropped the rubber ball, scientists would be able to calculate how dense the atmosphere is by _______.
　A. slowing the ball down at a speed which could be measured
　B. dropping another ball with scientific instruments on to the surface网]
　C. putting down the ball towards the planet's surface
　D. measuring the speed at which the ball was falling
55. It is not until _______ that people can think of a plan to make a trip to Mars.
　A. they have got enough scientific instruments
　B. they have a lot more information
　C. dense enough atmosphere is found around the planet
　D. a reasonable suggestion has been made

One possible version:
The Olympic Games will be held in Beijing in 2008. It will be one of the greatest international sports meetings of the 21st century. Over one hundred countries will send their teams to take part in the Olympics. Every country hopes to win as many medals as it can. I think that many new buildings and stadiums will be built, roads will be widened, and all the places will be well decorated to welcome the guests from around the world. When China hosts the Olympic Games, it will be a good chance for the Chinese people to show the world their warmth. As a student, I should learn English harder than ever before. I also want to be a volunteer to help foreign friends.Module 5 The Conquest of the Universe 同步练习

第三节 阅读理解 （共20小题；每小题2.5分，满分50分）
A
In Canada you can find dogs, cats, horses, etc. in almost every family. These are their pets. People love these pets and have them as their good friends. Before they keep them in their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them injections（注射） so that they won’t carry diseases. There are many special animal food stores, though people can get animal food in almost every kind of store. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit people’s houses, they will be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find that almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcome to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animal in Canada. They have a law against killing wild animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished. If an animal happened to be hurt by a car, people would be very sad about it.
People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: Their family ties are not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own lives. Then the old will feel lonely. But pets can solve this problem. They can be good friends and never leave them alone.

A. how to keep disease from pets

San Francisco is a spectacular city. It is famous for its steep hills, its earthquakes and the prison island of Alcatraz, but its most famous landmark is the Golden Gate Bridge. This is one of the most beautiful bridges in the world. It has a simple, graceful shape, and is painted in an attractive orange.
Work on the Golden Gate Bridge started in 1933 and continued for the next four years. The total cost of the bridge was US$35 million. At that time, its span of 1,200 meters made the Golden Gate Bridge the longest suspension(悬浮) bridge in the world. The bridge is 2.7 kilometers long and, at the middle point, 70 meters above the water of San Francisco Bay. The main cables that hold the bridge are one meter in diameter. The bridge can safely withstand(抵挡) winds of up to 160 kilometers an hour, and it can sway(摇摆) as much as 8 meters in strong winds.
On Thursday, May 27, 1937, 200,000 people walked across the bridge to mark its opening. People are still allowed to walk across: it takes about half an hour each way. It is worth the effort. As you cross, you understand the engineering skill that went into the construction of the bridge. You also get wonderful views of San Francisco and the Bay Area.
The Golden Gate Bridge has been the scene of many events since it was completed. It was shaken by the earthquake of 1989. Daredevil（喜欢冒险的） pilots have flown their planes under it. Sadly, too, some people have taken their own lives by jumping from the bridge. But throughout its history, the Golden Gate Bridge has been the symbol of San Francisco, like the Temple of Heaven symbolizes Beijing and the Eiffel Tower symbolizes Paris.
43. How many things make San Francisco famous
A. Two (its history and its present).
B. Three (steep hills, earthquakes, the prison island of Alcatraz).
C. Four (Golden Gate Bridge, steep hills, earthquakes, the prison island of Alcatraz).
D. Five (the orange color of the bridge, the shape of the bridge, steep hills, earthquakes, the prison island of Alcatraz).
44. The Golden Gate Bridge has been there for ______ years.
A. less than 70 B. more than 70
C. about 15 D. about 50
45. What is TRUE about the bridge
A. It was greatly damaged by the earthquake in 1989.
B. It can fight back strong winds of up to 180 kilometers an hour.
C. It has caused many deaths since its opening.
D. It is the symbol of the history of San Francisco.

A lot of people are their own enemies. They regard themselves as unlikely to succeed in college and often feel that there have been no accomplishments （成就） in their lives. In my first year of college especially, I saw people get themselves down too quickly. There were two students in my class who failed the first test and seemed to give up immediately. From that day on, they walked into the classroom carrying defeat on their shoulders the way other students carried textbooks under their arms. When they disappeared for good(长久地), no one took much notice, for they had already disappeared in spirit after that first test.
I have really wanted to shake them by the shoulders and say: “You are not dead. Be proud and pleased that you have brought yourself here to college. Breathe. Hope. Act.” Such people should not use self-doubts as an excuse for not trying. They should pull themselves together and get to work. They should start taking notes in class and trying to learn. Above all, they should not give up without even trying.
49. The phrase “get themselves down” (Para. 1) probably
means ______.
A. tell lies B. lose confidence
C. avoid dangers D. waste time
50. When the two students dropped out （退学）, no one took much notice because ______.
A. they had long lost heart in class performance
B. they were absent from class too often
C. they didn’t get on well with other students
D. they were so much cut off from the rest of the class
51. According to the passage, the two students failed in their study because of their ______.
A. shyness B. proudness
C. self-doubt D. laziness
52. The author thinks that the two students should ______. A. give up their college education
B. learn from other students
C. feel happy because they are in college
D. try hard before giving up
F
Normally a student must attend a number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a grade which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree is made up of thirty-six courses each lasting for one term. Generally, a course is made up of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each term. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two terms each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not done as a regular practice.
For every course that follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the student can get it to show his future employers. All this sets a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activities in student affairs. They show much interest in elections to positions in student organizations performed by students who advise the academic authorities (权威人士). Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating is to appear before a student court. With the large numbers of students, the operation of the system has something to do with a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career (生涯).
53. Normally a student would at least attend ______ classes each week.
A. 36. B. 12
C. 20 D. 15
54. According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed ______.
A. to live in a different university
B. to take a particular course in a different university C. to live at home and drive to classes
D. to get degrees from two different universities
55. Some students are interested in positions in student organizations probably because ______.
A. they hate the constant pressure and strain of their study
B. they will then be able to stay longer in the university
C. such positions help them get better jobs
D. such positions are usually well paid

第三节 阅读理解 （共10小题；每小题3分，满分30分）
A
In the past, man did not have to think about protection of the environment. There were very few people on the earth, and natural resources seemed to be unlimited.
Today things are different. The world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural resources too quickly, and at the same time we are polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue to do this, human life on the earth will not survive.
Everyone realizes today that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet, with modern fishing methods, more and more fish are caught. We know that if too many trees are cut down, forests will disappear and nothing will grow on land. Yet, we continue to use more powerful machines to cut down more and more trees.
We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, we will die. However, in most countries waste is still put into rivers, but there are few laws to stop this.
We also know that if the population of the countries in the world is to rise at the present rate in a few years, there will not be enough food.
What can we do to solve these problems
If we eat more vegetables and less meat, there will be more food available for everyone. Land that is used to grow crops can feed five times more people than land where animals are kept.
Our natural resources will last longer if we learn to recycle them.
The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.
Finally, if all of us think about the problem, we will have a better and cleaner planet in the future.
36. This passage mainly tells us about ______.
A. the problems we are facing today about environment and the ways to solve them
B. the unlimited natural resources in the world
C. our rivers are being polluted by waste from factories
D. the ways early man protected the environment
37. Which of the following is NOT true
A. If we eat more vegetables, more food can be saved.
B. In the past, there was no need for people to think about environmental protection.
C. If we keep on cutting trees, forests will disappear.
D. We shouldn’t take more and more fish out of the sea, or there will soon be no fish left.
38. What is implied (暗示) in the passage
A. Man is cleverer than any other animal.
B. Man will destroy himself if he doesn’t solve the problem.
C. Modern fishing methods are helpful in our fishing industry.
D. We should make more laws in order to survive.
39. From the passage we can see that the world’s natural resources ______.
A. will never be used up
B. are being polluted
C. are as plentiful as in the past
D. are being used up very quickly
B
“Sesame Street” has been called “the longest street in the world.” That is because the television program can be seen in so many parts of the world. That program became one of America’s exports soon after it was shown in New York in 1969.
In the United States more than six million children watch the program regularly. Although some people do not agree to some parts of the program, parents praise it highly.
Tests have shown that children have learned much from watching “Sesame Street”. The children who watch it five times a week learn more than those who watch it less. In the United States the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.
The programs use songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relationships.
Why has “Sesame Street” been so much more successful than other children’s shows Many reasons have been suggested, such as the educational theories of its producers, the support from both the government and businessmen, and the full use of various kinds of television skills. Perhaps another important reason is that mothers watch “Sesame Street” together with their children. This is partly because famous film stars often appear on “Sesame Street”. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.
40. The “Sesame Street” has been called “the longest street in the world” because it is ______.
A. the longest street in the United States
B. shown in many countries
C. the longest television program in the world
D. watched regularly by six million children
41. In the United States many children can watch the program regularly because ______.
A. they needn’t go to school
B. it is shown many hours a day
C. it is shown in the evening
D. it is shown many times during the week
42. One of the important reasons for the success of the program is that ______.
A. not only children but also their mothers like to watch it
B. many famous film stars enjoy watching it
C. it teaches educational theories
D. it is produced by the government
C
Arabs consider it extremely bad manners to start talking business immediately. Even the busiest government official always takes extra（额外的） time to be polite and offer refreshments. No matter how busy you are, you should make time for this.
The conference visit is a way of doing business throughout the Arab world. Frequently, you will have to discuss your business in the presence of strangers, who may or may not have anything to do with your business. Do not be surprised if your meeting is interrupted several times by people who come into the room unannounced, whisper, or speak softly to the person with whom you are talking, and leave.
Making decisions quickly is not an Arab custom. There is vagueness in doing business in the Middle East which will puzzle a new-comer. Give yourself lots of time and ask them lots of questions.
When an Arab says “yes”, he may mean “maybe”. When he says “maybe”, he probably means “no”. You will seldom get a direct “no” from an Arab because it is considered impolite. Instead of “no”, he will say “inshallah”, which means “if God is willing.” On the other hand, “yes” does not necessarily mean “yes”. A smile and a slow nod might seem like an agreement, but in fact, your host is being polite. An Arab thinks that it is impolite to disagree with a guest.
43. The main purpose of this article is to explain ______. A. why you need extra time when you visit Arab countries
B. how to be polite when doing business in the Arab world
C. why Arab officials are so busy
D. what Arabs say when doing business
44. From this article we know that ______.
A. when an Arab wants to say “yes”, he often says “maybe”
B. an Arab seldom disagrees with a guest to his face
C. when an Arab agrees, a smile and a slow nod will be given
D. “inshallah” is an English word
45. Which of the following is NOT an Arab custom
A. To dislike being interrupted during their meeting.
B. Often to give you a vague answer.
C. Seldom to say “no” directly.
D. Seldom to hesitate to start talking business in the presence of strangers.

One possible version?
Attention, please, I’m going to give you a summary of today’s discussion about whether we should go online in our spare time.
Most students think we can go online as much as possible in our spare time because we are free then.
Through the Internet, we can gain plenty of the newest knowledge and the latest news at home and abroad.
What’s more, network offers us a convenient way to communicate with each other. The Internet makes our lives outside class colorful and various.
On the other hand, a few students partly agree to this idea. Going online is part of our daily life but they suggest a time limit. They’ve found that more students are playing computer games instead of studying their lessons. There’re also a few students who are often absent from school for days to go online.
I think we should make proper use of the Internet.
That’s all. Thank you.Module 2 The Renaissance 同步练习2

Four words. They 29 his life.
“ 30 I read those words, I had no idea of who I was or 31 I was going to be,” he said.
“After reading her note, I went home and wrote a short story, something I had always been 32 of doing but never believed I could do.”Over the rest of that year in school, he wrote many short stories and always brought them to school for Mrs. Brauch to evaluate （评价）.

第三节 阅读理解 （共10小题；每小题3分，满分30分）
A
Paper was one of the most important inventions in the Chinese history. As a result of this invention, much is known about Chinese history because records were kept on paper. However, in other parts of the world, much of the history over hundreds of years is completely unknown. As there was no paper in these countries, no records were kept.
It is believed that before paper was developed, people in China used to keep records by putting a number of stones together. As soon as writing came to development, people carved (刻) words on animal bones. Later, words were carved on metal pots; examples of these have been found from the sixteenth to the third centuries B.C. Between the second and the fifth centuries A.D. people wrote on pieces of bamboo or wood and these were tied together to form a book. Although these were much more useful than the metal pots, they were still difficult to read and were very heavy to carry.
At the same time another kind of book made from silk was developed. Some silk books that have been found are over 2140 years old. It was easy to write and draw on silk. The problem was that it was too hard for everyday use. Because it was so expensive, people developed a kind of paper made from the fibers of plants. They used fishing nets, barks, pieces of old clothes and so on to make paper. This kind of paper was as soft and light as silk but much less expensive.
36. Paper was one of the greatest inventions because ______.
A. it was invented by the Chinese
B. it was the first one that was invented by humans
C. it helped to record human’s history
D. no other countries used paper except China
37. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage
A. People wrote words on a piece of wood or bamboo to keep record.
B. Animal bones were used to carve words on by people in the ancient time.
C. Words carved long ago can be found on metal pots even today.
D. Ancient people put stones together to write words on.
38. We may know that ______.
A. silk books were not so widely spread
B. all kinds of paper were invented over 2140 years ago
C. fishing nets and clothes were cheaper than paper then
D. paper made from silk was not so soft to write on
B
The doctor pointed to some bones on his desk. “They are a man’s foot bones,” he said. “They were found inside the cave, and I have been examining them. The C14 test shows that they are about 12,000 years old.”
“What is the C14 test ” I asked. “It’s a way of finding the age of some things that had been done long ago. The ‘C’ means carbon and carbon is found in all living things. It is also found in the remains of things that lived and died thousands or millions of years ago. Plants and animals take carbon into their bodies from the air. It stays in their remains.”
“Well, there are two kinds of carbon, called carbon 12(C12) and carbon 14 (C14). Both are taken in together, but in living things C12 is one trillion (1012) times more plentiful (大量的) than C14. The two kinds are different in one important aspect.”
“C14 is radioactive：it gives out rays of energy at a fixed frequency （频率）. As it does so, it changes to C12 in 5,600 years. Then in the next 5,600 years, half of the remaining C14 becomes C12 and so on. We say that C14 has a half-life (半衰期) of 5,600 years.”
“You must have found some C14 in these bones, then,” I said.
“Yes, I did. But the C12 is now four million times more plentiful. About a quarter of the C14 is left. That means nearly enough, that two half-lives have passed.” The doctor picked up one of the brown toe bones. “It’s 12,000 years since this toe was broken. Perhaps the man was playing football outside—with no boots on.”
39. The word “remains” in paragraph two means ______.
A. things left by ancient people
B. dead bodies
C. newly-found ancient places
D. caves where ancient people lived
40. Carbon 14 is a natural element (元素) ______.
A. but it kills quickly
B. and we all have some in us
C. found only in bones
D. but it disappears after 5,600 years
41. It is true that only ______.
A. C14 has a half-life
B. old bones have a half-life
C. radioactive materials have a half-life
D. a living thing has a half-life
C
The Chinese were the real inventor of printing. Centuries ago they carved messages on a stone and then sprinkled (撒) sooty（煤炭的） dust over it. When they put a small piece of paper over the stone and rubbed the paper, the sooty lines were reproduced on it. Some of these first printed papers have been preserved; the oldest ones known to exist are more than one thousand years old.
Printing with carved stone blocks was the only kind of printing known for centuries. Then, about eight hundred years ago, a Chinese printer, Bi Sheng, had a clever idea. Instead of carving a whole message on a single big block of wood or stone, he formed separate Chinese words or characters out of bits of clay(粘土). By putting the clay pieces together in rows in a box, he could print just as before. But when he finished, he could keep all the separate pieces of clay and use them again.
Bi Sheng’s movable type was a great step forward, but his method was not generally adopted. Movable type did not come into use in Europe until it was invented there centuries later. The Europeans had been totally ignorant of the printing traditions of the Chinese.
42. The oldest pieces of printed paper in existence date back ______.
A. 800 years
B. more than 1000 years
C. more than 2000 years
D. 500 years
43. Bi Sheng used clay to form ______.
A. large tablets for writing
B. messages
C. individual words or characters
D. small statues
44. These pieces of clay were ______.
A. easily lost B. broken
C. reusable D. disposable
45. Europeans adopted printing after they ______.
A. realized stone carving was inadequate (不够的)
B. had learned about it from the Chinese
C. had copied Chinese printing
D. had invented it themselves

One possible version:
In order to make our city cleaner and more beautiful, the young volunteers of our school went to the People’s Park this morning and offered our help.
At eight, the head of the park met us at the gate. After being divided into groups, we set out to work at once. Some tidied up the parking area and had motorbikes parked in the right place. Some took care of the flowers and bushes, and persuaded people to keep off the grass. Around the tiger den, one group kept order to prevent accidents from happening.
At the aquarium, another group worked as guides and advised visitors not to smoke. When some of us were doing cleaning, an old man praised us and said, “Well done, young fellows!”
We were all tired but happy. What a morning we had today!Module 2 The Renaissance 同步练习

It was eleven o’clock, and Mr. Sims had just asked the class to pay attention for the fiftieth time while he explained a math problem. Carson Webster was sitting over by the window trying to listen to the teacher, but his mind was not on the problem Mr. Sims was discussing. Carson’s mind was on a little mouse named Millie that was busily moving around in his pocket. Millie was not very happy. At breakfast, she had climbed into Carson’s pocket and gone to sleep while Carson ate two pieces of bread and read the newspaper. Carson had forgotten Millie was there until he was halfway in class. Now that Millie’s morning sleep was over, she was ready to exercise. Luckily for Carson, Millie was in a pocket with a button, or he might be in serious trouble.
“Carson ” Mr. Sims, who was usually rather strict with his students, was suddenly looking at Carson with his eyes wide open, rolling his stick in his hand. Carson had to pay attention.
“Could you please repeat the question ” said Carson, feeling his pocket.
“I asked if you would agree with the statement,” said Mr. Sims pleasantly.
“Well, I’m not really attentive at the moment,” said Carson. “I think I would need to give it more consideration.” Carson did not have the slightest idea as to what Mr. Sims was talking about.
“I see,” said Mr. Sims seriously, “Then I guess you’re uncertain about whether the product of zero by any other number is always zero ”
“Oh, I know that,” said Carson, who could feel himself turning red as a couple of kids including Bob began to laugh. He knew his punishment would come soon. To his surprise, however, the teacher didn’t seem angry.
“I’m so glad,” said Mr. Sims, turning back to the blackboard. “Oh, and by the way, Carson,” he continued, “I think a cage would be a healthier place for your little friend. Would you agree with that statement ” Just at that time, Millie let out a weak but clear cry and stuck her head out of Carson’s pocket.
“Yes,” Carson said with a smile, “I would totally agree with that statement!”

D. When Carson was in class, Millie was fast asleep in his pocket.

B. He was a teacher who was not only strict but also humorous.

Not very long ago, the computer was a strange machine. Not many people understood it. Not many people said yes to it. Today much of that is changing. The first computer system was introduced for use in business in the mid-1950s. Since then, the number of computer systems used in business, government offices, and institutions has grown rapidly. In 1975, about 250,000 systems were in use in the United States. This figure is growing by tens of thousands every year.
The computer is an important factor in our lives. Each year we use computer more and more to help us to collect data and to provide us with information. At one time people thought computers were only useful to banks, department stores and governments. But today the rapidly increasing numbers of computers are used for many other purposes. Have you ever stopped to think how you are affected (影响) by a computer The clothes you wear were probably made with the help of a computer. The newspaper you read could have been edited and typed by a computer. Even radio programmes are often prepared by computers.
Computers today are playing important roles in education, transportation and medicine. They are used to predict the weather, to examine the ocean, and to develop defense systems. They are being used by businesses, governments and institutions. There is no doubt that their uses will become a greater part of our lives.
The influence (影响) of the computer is great. The list of its uses could go on and on. Computers now affect millions of people in countless ways every day.

Started in 1636, Harvard University is the oldest of all the colleges and universities in the United States. Yale, Princeton, and Columbia were opened soon after Harvard. In the early years, these schools were much alike. Only young men could go to college. All the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, and Greek. Little was known about science then. When the students graduated, most of them became ministers or teachers.
In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could receive their training (训练) in Harvard’s law school. In 1825, besides Latin and Greek, Harvard began teaching modern languages, such as French and German. Soon it began teaching American history.
As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them.

The first Olympic Games were held at Olympia, ancient Greece as early as 776 B.C.. The Olympic Games were held once every four years to honor the Greek god Zeus. Sportsmen from many nations took part in the games. The Greek Olympics did not have as many sports programmes as the modern Olympic Games. There were only a short race—a race of about three miles and some other matches such as jumping, boxing, etc.
During the games all wars stopped. Soldiers were allowed to pass safely through enemy lines on their way to the games.
The last Greek Olympics were held in 388 A.D.. Then the Roman rulers ordered the games be stopped.
A Frenchman wished to renew the ideas of excellence of body, mind and spirit (精神) shown in the ancient Greek Olympics. He believed that the Olympic Games would bring about healthy competition among nations, so he decided to start the Olympic Games all over again. He succeeded. In 1896, the modern Olympic Games were held in Athens, Greece. Since then the Olympics have been growing steadily (稳健地) with more and more nations and athletes taking part. They have much more programmes than the Greek Olympics. Athletes of many nations compete in various kinds of sports.
The Olympics have been held once every four years. They are held in a different city of the world. But they were not held in 1916, 1940, 1944 because of the world wars.

You may know all about vitamin C, but do you know why vitamin D is also important to your body Experts from the Children’s Hospital in Boston, US, have said that some teens don’t get enough of this important nutrient.
Vitamin D is necessary for developing healthy bones. It is produced by the body with the help of sunlight. It can also be found in certain foods and drinks, such as livers (肝脏) and eggs. However, it is difficult to get enough vitamin D from food alone, which means enjoying the sunshine is very important.
The doctors who ran the study tested 307 teenagers to discover how much vitamin D was in their blood. They found that 74 of the children tested— nearly 25 per cent—had vitamin D deficiency (缺乏). Of those 74, 14 were severely short of the nutrient.
The doctors also found that the amount of the vitamin found in a child’s blood was affected by a number of factors. Vitamin D levels drop in winter, probably because less time is spent outside in the sunlight. Diet was also a key factor as well.
Even skin color has an influence, as people with darker skin find it more difficult to produce the vitamin.
Vitamin D deficiency can lead to many health problems for both children and adults. It is also believed that low levels of it can cause depression (抑郁).
53. Vitamin D is important to your body in the way that it ______.
A. helps to keep your liver work normally
B. helps to build your bones
C. helps to produce fresh blood
D. helps to take in nutrient from food
54. We know from this passage that ______.
A. 25 percent of the teenagers in the world have vitamin D deficiency
B. vitamin D plays an important role in a child’s blood
C. sunshine is one factor in gaining vitamin D for a human
D. the darker your skin is, the more vitamin D you’ll get
55. The best title for the passage would be ______.
A. Vitamin D and Your Blood
B. Where to Find Vitamin D
C. Teenagers and Vitamin D
D. Don’t Hide from the Sunshine
