The Great Fire of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. Over one hundred people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.
The fire starte ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d on Sunday morning in the house of the King’s baker（面包师）in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window into the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery（面包房）into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.
By eight o’ cloc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )k three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Paul’s and the Guildhall among them.
Samuel Pepys, t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he famous writer, writer about the fire, “People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.”
The fire s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )topped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.
After the f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ire, Christopher Wren, the architect(建筑师), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow, but he did build more than fifty churches, among them the mew St Paul’s.
The fire cause ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past.

A. some people ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lost their lives B. the birds in the sky were killed by the fire
C. many famous bu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ildings were destroyed D. the King’s bakery was burned down
44. Why did the writer cite(引用)Samuel Pepys
A. Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire.
B. Because Pepys also wrote about the fire.
C. To show that poor people suffered most.
D. To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire.
45. How was the fire put out according to the text
A. The King and his soldiers came to help.
B. All the wooden houses in the city were destroyed.
C. People managed to get enough water from the river.
D. Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down.
46. Which of t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he following were reasons for the rapid spread of the big fire
(a) There was a strong wind. (b) The streets were very narrow．
(c) Many h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ouses were made of wood. (d) There was not enough water in the city.

IV. Reading.
People in the United S ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tates honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June. These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer a chance to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home. More fathers must help with child-care.
These two ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations(康乃馨). A red one stands for a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services(宗教仪式) to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit their graves. On these days, families get together at home and in restaurants. They often have outdoor BBQs for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories. Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are valued more than the ones bought in stores. It is not the value of the gift that is important, but it is “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakeries, telephones companies and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays.
