One morning, Mr. Smith came into the garden at the back of his house. He saw so much snow in the garden. Mr. Smith wanted to take his car out, so he asked a man to clean the road from his garage (车库) to the gate. He said to the man, “Don't throw any snow on the side. It will damage(破坏) the flowers in my garden, and don't throw any on the other side, because it will damage the wall. And don't throw any into the street, because the policeman will come.” Then he went out.
When he came back, the road was clean. There was no snow on the flowers, or the wall or the street. But when he opened the garage to get his car out, he saw: the garage was full of snow, the snow from the road, and his car was under the snow.

Today Newtown is a clean place, but many years ago there were millions of rats there. The rats even attacked (攻击 ) the cats and dogs. Sometimes many of them tried to bite men or women at night. The rats were very large in size and they harmed (伤害 ) many people.
The city office ordered every one to kill rats. However, most people were lazy, so they did not kill many rats. The city office could do nothing with the citizens and could do nothing with the rats, either. Some time later, they had to pay some money for each dead rat. That made the people very happy. They at once began to kill rats. They got as many dead rats as they could. And some of them even stopped their own work to kill rats because they could get more pay. Every day a city official(官员 ) put all the dead rats together. He was very busy doing that, because sometimes a man brought hundreds of them in one day. Two weeks later, there were not so many rats in the city as before, but people still brought many dead rats to the city office. The city officials felt surprised at this but at last they found out people were stealing the dead rats they had collected. So the city official had to order his men to dig a big hole and put the dead rats in it. Soon there were no more rats and the city did not have to pay any more money for that.
54. The rats in Newtown were once ______
A. as big as cats B. as dangerous as dogs
C. huge in size D. run into cars there
55. When the city office first ordered the citizens to kill rats, most people ______.

What would you do if a stranger gave you some medicine and it would keep you slim or help you do well in exams? Would you take it?
Students at Shenzhen Luohu Foreign Language Middle School have learned to keep themselves safe by saying “no”. In fact, what those strangers want to give them are drugs (毒品) . Drugs are dangerous to your health!
“Because teens don't know much about drugs, they might want to try them,” said Zhang Dongsheng, the director of Shenzhen Drug Control Office.
Now, many schools arrange courses or organize some activities to help students know about drugs.
Liang, 16, was a good student before trying drugs. One day, some old friends told him it would be fun. After taking drugs only once, he found it very hard to stop. Liang began to spend all his time and money on drugs. Soon, he stopped going to school and started stealing. In the end, he was put in prison.
In China, taking drugs is becoming a big problem for teens. According to a survey, about one million people in China were using illegal drugs last year, and 72% of them were young people. Worse still, there are about10,000 drug users under 16 now.
Zhang has some good advice on staying clean. He said, “Drugs are dangerous. Never try them, even if you’re curious! It is the most important for you to keep safe and healthy.”
57. Teens wants to try drugs because _________ .
A. they are 18 years old B. they aren't curious about drugs
C. they have enough money D. they don't know about the harm of drugs
58. From Liang's story, we can know that it’s _________ to give up drugs even if one tries only once.
A. easy B. hard C. foolish D. possible
59. According to a survey, about _______ young people in China were using illegal drugs last year.
A. 1,000,000 B. 100,000 C. 10,000 D. 720,000
60.What does the phrase “staying clean” here mean?
A. Being clean. B. Keeping clothes clean.
C. Staying away from drugs. D. Wearing clean clothes.
D
British English and American English
A student is studying British English. He wonders: Can I have a talk with Americans? Can they catch me? Learners of English often ask--what are the differences between British English and American English? How important are these differences?
Certainly, there are some differences between British English and American English. There are a few differences in grammar（语法）. For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?” Pronunciation (发音) is sometimes different. Americans usually sound the “r” in words like “car”and “farm”. Some speakers of British English do not sound the “r” in these words. There are differences between British English and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, “colour”and “honour” are British English spellings. “Color” and “honor” are American English spellings.
These differences are in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary. However, they are not important. For the most part, British English and American English are the same language.
61. In American English, we can say, “ ? ”
A. Have you a new book B. Do you have a new book
C. Are you have a new book D. Can you to have a new book
62. Between British English and American English, sometimes pronunciation is .
A. poor B. different C. high D. short
63. In American English, the word “favourite”can be spelt .
A. favoruite B. favurite C. favorite D. favrite
64.Englishmen say “in hospital”, while Americans say .
A. at the hospital B. in the hospital
C. by hospital D. to hospital
65. The main idea of the passage is that .
A. there are no differences between British English and American English
B. British English and American English are two different languages
C. speakers of British English and American English speak the same language
D. we shouldn't speak English

Today Newtown is a clean place, but many years ago there were millions of rats there. The rats even attacked (攻击 ) the cats and dogs. Sometimes many of them tried to bite men or women at night. The rats were very large in size and they harmed (伤害 ) many people.
The city office ordered every one to kill rats. However, most people were lazy, so they did not kill many rats. The city office could do nothing with the citizens and could do nothing with the rats, either. Some time later, they had to pay some money for each dead rat. That made the people very happy. They at once began to kill rats. They got as many dead rats as they could. And some of them even stopped their own work to kill rats because they could get more pay. Every day a city official(官员 ) put all the dead rats together. He was very busy doing that, because sometimes a man brought hundreds of them in one day. Two weeks later, there were not so many rats in the city as before, but people still brought many dead rats to the city office. The city officials felt surprised at this but at last they found out people were stealing the dead rats they had collected. So the city official had to order his men to dig a big hole and put the dead rats in it. Soon there were no more rats and the city did not have to pay any more money for that.

What would you do if a stranger gave you some medicine and it would keep you slim or help you do well in exams? Would you take it?
Students at Shenzhen Luohu Foreign Language Middle School have learned to keep themselves safe by saying “no”. In fact, what those strangers want to give them are drugs (毒品) . Drugs are dangerous to your health!
“Because teens don't know much about drugs, they might want to try them,” said Zhang Dongsheng, the director of Shenzhen Drug Control Office.
Now, many schools arrange courses or organize some activities to help students know about drugs.
Liang, 16, was a good student before trying drugs. One day, some old friends told him it would be fun. After taking drugs only once, he found it very hard to stop. Liang began to spend all his time and money on drugs. Soon, he stopped going to school and started stealing. In the end, he was put in prison.
In China, taking drugs is becoming a big problem for teens. According to a survey, about one million people in China were using illegal drugs last year, and 72% of them were young people. Worse still, there are about10,000 drug users under 16 now.
Zhang has some good advice on staying clean. He said, “Drugs are dangerous. Never try them, even if you’re curious! It is the most important for you to keep safe and healthy.”
57. Teens wants to try drugs because _________ .
A. they are 18 years old B. they aren't curious about drugs
C. they have enough money D. they don't know about the harm of drugs
58. From Liang's story, we can know that it’s _________ to give up drugs even if one tries only once.
A. easy B. hard C. foolish D. possible
59. According to a survey, about _______ young people in China were using illegal drugs last year.
A. 1,000,000 B. 100,000 C. 10,000 D. 720,000
60.What does the phrase “staying clean” here mean?
A. Being clean. B. Keeping clothes clean.
C. Staying away from drugs. D. Wearing clean clothes.

British English and American English
A student is studying British English. He wonders: Can I have a talk with Americans? Can they catch me? Learners of English often ask--what are the differences between British English and American English? How important are these differences?
Certainly, there are some differences between British English and American English. There are a few differences in grammar（语法）. For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans “in the hospital” and “Do you have a pen?” Pronunciation (发音) is sometimes different. Americans usually sound the “r” in words like “car”and “farm”. Some speakers of British English do not sound the “r” in these words. There are differences between British English and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, “colour”and “honour” are British English spellings. “Color” and “honor” are American English spellings.
These differences are in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary. However, they are not important. For the most part, British English and American English are the same language.
61. In American English, we can say, “ ? ”
