A huge fire broke out on 2 September 1666 in London. The fire, known as the
Great Fire of London, was the worst fire in the history of London. It burned down
more than three quarters of the old city.
{#{QQABIYCQggioABBAAQhCAwUgCgGQkBAACCoGgEAMMAIAABFABAA=}#}
The fire started in the very early hours of Sunday morning in the house of the
king’s baker. A strong wind blew the fire from the baker’s house into a small hotel
next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
At that time, most of the buildings in London were made of wood, so it was easy
for the fire to spread quickly. By eight o’clock, three hundred houses were on fire. By
Monday, nearly a kilometre of the city was burning along the Thames River. On
Tuesday, which was considered the worst day, the fire destroyed many well-known
buildings, including the old St Paul’s Cathedral.
The fire burned until finally hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire were
destroyed to create a firebreak. The fire then died out eventually with nothing left to
burn.
24.Why is the fire of 1666 called the Great Fire of London
A．The fire broke out in the capital of England.
B. The fire was the worst fire in the history of London.
C. People in England will never forget the fire.
D. The fire spread fast into Thames Street.
25.Where did the fire break out
A. In the house of the king’s baker.
B. In Thames Street.
C. In the house of the baker’s neighbour.
D. In St Paul’s Cathedral.
26.Why did the fire spread quickly
A．It started in a baker’s house.
B．It broke out on a Sunday morning.
C．Most of the buildings in London were wooden.
D．A hotel was next to the baker’s house.
27.What was destroyed in the fire
A. The old St Paul’s Cathedral.
B. Hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire.
C. Hundreds of wooden houses.
D. All of the above.

"Long time no see.” is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence
from an American friend's e-mail, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect example of
Chinglish.
Obviously, it is a word-by-word literal translation（直译）of the Chinese greeting
with wrong English grammar! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American
greeting. I was too surprised to believe her. Her words were unbelievable at all. So I did
{#{QQABIYCQggioABBAAQhCAwUgCgGQkBAACCoGgEAMMAIAABFABAA=}#}
research on . To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages
containing “Long time no see.” Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language
that Americans use daily. Interestingly, if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the
software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.
Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it
came from Charlie Chan's movies. In the 1930s,Hollywood moviemakers successfully
created a worldwide famous Chinese detective（警探）named“Charlie Chan” on wide
screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting
Confucius. “Long time no see.” was his symbol. Soon after Charlie Chan, “Long time no
see.” became a popular expression in America thanks to the popularity of these movies.
Some scholars compare America to a huge melting pot. All kinds of cultures are
mixed in the pot together, and they change the color and taste of each other. Language is
usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed pot.
You can have some examples from other countries, such as pizza from Italian, sushi
from Japanese, and déjà vu from French etc. There is a long list! Since Americans admire
Chinese culture more and more nowadays, I believe more Chinese words will become
American English in the future. In this way, the American's melting pot keeps adding
richness.
28. What did the writer himself feel surprised at
A. The Chinglish expression “Long time no see.”
B. So many literal translations of the expressions used in America.
C. “Long time no see.” is used as a standard American English greeting.
D. Finding out Americans use the expression every day.
29. What do the underlined words “melting pot” in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Confucius's words.
B. Culture mixture.
C. A kind of cooked dish.
D. American changing cultures.
30. What can be inferred from the passage
A. Detectives translated the phrase “Long time no see.”
B. Cultures cannot be changed in the huge melting pot.
C. The huge melting pot greatly affects all kinds of languages.
D. Hollywood made “Long time no see.” popular.
31. What is the main idea of the passage
A. American English keeps being enriched by different cultures.
B. Americans have a strong interest in Chinese culture.
C. SomeAmerican expressions can be used in China.
D. Some Chinese expressions are introduced into English.
D
Research has found that adults today have fewer friends than they did in the 1980s,
and that more people say they have no one to discuss something important with.
Play the violin. Not just play it-and sing along. A new study suggests that singing is
{#{QQABIYCQggioABBAAQhCAwUgCgGQkBAACCoGgEAMMAIAABFABAA=}#}
an effective way to make new friends because it helps us bond quickly with others.
For the study, led by Eiluned Pearce, Ph. D. at Oxford University, researchers looked
at participants aged 18 to 83 in adult education classes organized by the Workers'
Education Association in the UK. Eighty-four participants were enrolled(登记加入 ) in
one of four singing classes; 51 participants were enrolled in one of two creative crafts
classes or a creative writing class.
Over a period of seven months, the classes went weekly. During the first, third, and
final months, researchers asked participants to tell how close they felt to their classmates.
Results showed something surprising. Although participants in all the classes felt closer
to their classmates by the study's end, participants in the singing classes developed that
closeness much more quickly.
As for why exactly singing leads to fast group bonding, the researchers say one
possible reason is that everyone does it at the same pare that with creative
writing or crafting, where everyone is working on an individual project. Another possible
cause, according to the researchers, is that singing involves muscular（肌肉的） effort,
which causes the release of certain molecules（分子）that can make us happier and more
willing to cooperate（合作）.
The point here is that singing can be a great icebreaker among large groups of
strangers, which can lead to individual friendships down the line. “Really close
relationships still depend on communication between individuals or much smaller
groups，” Pearce said in a release（发布会），“but this study shows singing can start the
bonding process.”
32. What has research found about today's adults
A. They don't really want friends.
B. They are looking for new friends.
C. They have fewer friends than before.
D. They like discussing important things with friends.
33. The researchers didn't expect that___________.
A. creative writing classes would help people bond
B. the participants would become closer to others
C. so many participants would take singing classes
D. participants in the singing classes would bond so quickly
34. Paragraph 5 shows that reasons for the results of the research are____________.
A. very cheering B. not completely possible
C. very interesting D. a bit confusing
35. According to Eiluned Pearce, really close relationships
A. rely on individual communication B. depend on one's attitude
{#{QQABIYCQggioABBAAQhCAwUgCgGQkBAACCoGgEAMMAIAABFABAA=}#}
C. often occur in large groups D. are easy to develop

Entering high school can be a great challenge. Everyone seems sure about what
they’re doing and how they’re doing it. This can make you feel nervous. 36 Here
are some tips that help you have an easier start at high school.
Start by saying hello to the people near you in class. 37 You could say，“Hi，
I’m Jess. I’m excited about the first day of school，but I’m a little nervous. What about
you ”
People like hearing nice things about themselves. It opens the door for conversation.
38 The best compliments（赞扬） are specific. For example，rather than saying，“I
think you’re smart，”you could say，“It’s amazing how quickly you pick up what Mr.
Roberts is saying in math.”
39 Every person is unique. You are different from everyone else；every other
person is，too. So accept those differences and find other people who will accept those
differences，too.
“Fitting in”often means changing yourself to go unnoticed in a group. “Belonging”
means the group actively wants you to be there. It feels easier to hide parts of yourself to
fit in. However，living in a way that’s not true to yourself will make you feel worse over
time. 40
A. It also makes both of you feel good.
B. Remember to accept the differences.
C. Always try to be the different one in a group.
D. This can be kind of difficult at the beginning.
E. People can’t get to know you if you never say anything.
F. Being yourself will help you find others who are like you.
G. But the truth is that everyone is a little unsure in high school.

We come by business naturally in our family. Each of the seven children in our

参考范文：
Dear Chris,
I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble adapting to your new school life.
Such problems are quite normal. Perhaps the following suggestions may be helpful.
First, I think you may need to communicate with your classmates as much as
possible. In this way, you will get to know each other better. Second, it might be a
good idea for you to take part in more activities, which usually involve teamwork
and interactions with other students and are therefore good for developing friendly
relationships. Lastly, faced with some tough problems, you might consider asking
your teachers for help, who can usually offer you some sensible suggestions.
I sincerely hope my advice will be of some help to you. If there is anything
more I can do to help,please let me know.
Yours
