A
Hundreds of years ago, a Roman army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots loved their country very much. They fought hard to drive the enemy out of Scotland, but there were too many Romans. It looked as if the Romans would win.
One night, the leader of the Scots marched his soldiers to the top of a hill. "We will rest here tonight, my men," he said. "Tomorrow we will fight one more battle (战斗). We must win, or we will die."
They were all very tired, so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty (执勤), but they were also very tired, and one by one fell asleep. The Romans were not asleep. Quickly they came together at the foot of the hill. Slowly they climbed up the hillside, taking care not to make a sound. Closer and closer they came to the sleeping Scots. They were almost at the top. A few minutes more, the war would be over. Suddenly, one of them put his foot on a thistle (蓟). He cried out and his sudden cry woke the Scots. In a moment, they were on their feet and ready for the battle. The fighting was hard but it did not last long. The Scots wiped out (歼灭) the Romans and saved their country.
The thistle is not a beautiful plant. It has sharp needles (针状物) all over it. Few people like it, but the people of Scotland liked it so much that they made it their national flower.
( ) 36. Why did it seem that the Romans would win?
A. Because they were brave.
B. Because there were many Romans.
C. Because they fought hard.
D. Because their captain was very clever.
( ) 37. Where did the Scots rest at night?
A. At the top of a hill.
B. At the foot of a hill.
C. At the middle of a hill.
D. Near a hill.
( ) 38. How many Scottish soldiers did NOT sleep at night?
A. Four. B. All.
C. No one. D. Eight.
( ) 39. Why did the Scots make the thistle their national flower?
A. Because they liked it.
B. Because it looked very beautiful.
C. Because it had sharp needles all over it.
D. Because it made them save their country.
( ) 40. What can be the best title for the passage?

There are many islands in the sea. In its warm water there are some little ones. We call them "coral islands (珊瑚岛)".
A coral island looks like a ring of land (一圈陆地) with trees, grass, and flowers on it. One part of the ring is open to the water. There is a little round lake inside the island.
If you look into this lake, you will see beautiful coral. You may think the coral looks like flowers. If you look at a piece of coral, you will see many little holes in it. In each of these holes a very small sea animal has lived. These sea animals make the coral.
They begin to build under the water. Year after year, the coral grows higher and higher. At last it grows out of the water.
Then the sea brings it to small trees and something else. After some years, these things change into earth. Sometimes the wind brings seeds (种子) to the earth. Sometimes birds fly over it and bring seeds to the island.
The little seeds grow. After a few years there are plants all over the island. After a few more years there are trees growing there
As you see, these islands are built little by little. The workers are very small, and we can learn a lesson from them. Can you think what the lesson is?
( ) 51. Which of the following does NOT grow on the coral island?
A. Trees.
B. Grass.
C. Flowers.
D. Large animals.
( ) 52. What does the coral look like?
A. Flowers.
B. Small animals.
C. Leaves.
D. Branches.
( ) 53. What make the coral?
A. Animals living in the trees, grass and flowers.
B. Animals living on the coral land.
C. Animals living in the holes of the coral.
D. Animals living under the water.
( ) 54. What lesson can we learn from the passage?
A. Nothing is impossible as long as you keep working hard.
B. Nothing is impossible as long as you are careful.
C. We should do things from small ones.
D. We should do things in the right place.
( ) 55. Where can we find the passage?
A. From a storybook.
B. From a science magazine.
C. From a fashion magazine.
D. From a cook book.
