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.
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 (蔓延) 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. A hotel was next to the baker’s house.
D. Most of the buildings in London were wooden.

Every day for a week, a strange, happy visitor would drop to play with Vanessa Prior’s pet dog Bobby. Prior thought Bobby had made a new dog friend. It seemed very friendly and got well along with Bobby. They would run after each other, play on the pool cover, gently wrestle (摔跤) or nap side by side.
At first she thought it was a wild dog. But when she posted a photo of the two playing on her Facebook, a pet rescue centre called her. The group told her the Atlanta Wolf Project had been trying to catch the wolf for months, but they failed. Prior gave them new hope.
Because of the wolfs friendship with her pet dog, it was likely to come back to her backyard. Researchers hoped Prior could help them. When they put some traps (陷阱) in the back of her yard, Prior got a very complicated (复杂的) feeling. She couldn’t describe what it was. The wolf would be in a safe place, but she would do something that harmed Bobby’s feelings.
Researchers told Prior that they would take the rare, black wolf to the Yellow River Wildlife Sanctuary where it would live with another wolf. They didn’t think it a satisfying situation for a wild animal like a wolf to have a connection with humans’ life. They need to keep a natural awareness to humans and pets and keep to themselves.
Wolf experts added they would look into the genetics(遗传学)of the animal to try to learn why it liked to get close to people and tried to play with their pets. Some experts believe it could have a history with well-meaning humans. Prior had not expected that she and Bobby should meet such a special and lovely wolf. They just hoped the dear friend all the best.
28. What happened to Vanessa Prior according to the first two paragraphs
A. She didn’t like her dog’s new friend.
B. She was awarded for her helpful picture.
C. She realized her dog made friends with a wolf.
D. She called the pet rescue centre to catch the wolf.
29. How did Prior feel when some traps were set
A. She was afraid to lose Bobby.
B. She regretted helping the researchers.
C. She was worried about the wolf’s future.
D. She had bitter-sweet feelings about the wolf.
30. What can be inferred about the black wolf from the last two paragraphs
A. It is a kind and sociable animal.
B. It was once kept as a human pet.
C. It will be sent to the wild to live with other animals.
D. It has a great awareness of keeping away from humans.
31. Where can the passage most probably appear
A. In a medical report. B. In a travel guide.
C. In a nature magazine. D. In a scientific research.
D
A recent study suggests that when it comes to the benefits of reading, just doing it matters more than the content. Researchers have found that reading novels helps the brain development in understanding others and imagining the world. They also have found that people who spend a few hours per week reading books live longer than those who don't read.
But how to build a habit of reading Like any habit, the trick is in figuring out what suits you. The hardest part about reading is actually picking up a book. You have to sit down, pick up a book and start reading. “I always have a book next to wherever I put my phone,” My friend Jimmy once told me. “So if I want to check my phone,I physically can see the book there. Nine times out of ten. I end up reading the book instead of using my phone for nothing.”
Another challenge is time, and in that case, audio-books (有声书) can be a good choice. Audio-books are great for filling the mind while you're on the way to work , washing dishes or working out at the gym.
If you’re still stuck on the way to developing a reading habit, the best way is to revisit your old favorite books to get your youthful reading pleasure. You should free yourself from the opinion that only important or educational books are worth reading. There's no shame in rereading the books that made you fall in love with reading in the first place. Restarting the practice of reading is a little like picking up painting. It takes some work to get into the best state, but once you begin, the results are beautiful and satisfying.
32.What is the most difficult part in forming the reading habit
A. Getting reading skills. B. Finding a great book.
C. Having limited time. D. Getting reading started.
33. What is the advantage of audio-books according to the text
A. They are time saving. B. They provide more pleasure.
C.They help brain development. D. They offer more book choices.
34. Why is rereading old favourite books a good idea
A. It helps restart reading. B. It is of great convenience(方便).
C. It improves the taste for art. D. It can increase your patience.
35. What can be the best title for the text
A. Method of killing free time B. Advantages of using audio-books
C. Way to choose educational books D. Advice on developing a reading habit
