A. more interesting B. the most interesting
C. interesting D. more and more interesting
答案：B
解析：介词短语of all games是表示“范围”的，在一定的范围内作比较，是用形容词的最高级。interesting是多音节的形容词，所以它的最高级是用the most interesting。

（?? ）7. The blackboard ______ just now. Do you know who did it?
A. cleaned B. was cleaning ?C. has cleaned D. was cleaned
答案：D
解析：just now的意思是“刚才”，可以判断是过去时， blackboard不能执行后面的动作clean，所以用被动语态，表示主语是动作的承受者，故用一般过去时的被动语态。
（?? ）8. We will not go home _____ it stops raining.
A. after ???? ? B. before ???????????? C. until ????? D. when

A. enough big; enough money ??????? B. big enough；enough money

解析：本句考查enough的用法。enough作副词修饰形容词的时候，放在形容词的后面；enough作形容词修饰名词的时候，放在名词的前面。第一个空是用enough修饰形容词big，所以用big enough；第二个空用enough修饰后面的名词，所以用enough money。
（?? ）10. Can you tell me ____？

Although bicycles are still an important means of transportation for many people at present, more and more people are riding it purely for exercise and fun. This is especially true in some developed countries where cars are a common part of common people’s life. However, two centuries ago, when bicycles were first invented, they were used only for transportation.
In the eighteenth century, people usually traveled by horse and wagon(马车). Many people worked in cities, but they liked to go to the countryside for weekends and holidays. But not everybody could afford a horse or a wagon. So there was a special need for the invention of a cheap and convenient means of transportation.
Then in 1790 the first bicycle was made. People called it “ the horse on wheels”. Compared with the bikes we ride today, it was an extremely simple one. In 1861, after many improvements were made, the bicycle became a real means of transportation. People liked bikes because they weren’t as expensive as horse and didn’t need to be fed. Also, they could go just about anywhere and were easy to ride.

E-mail can be a powerful new tool in improving communication between patients and doctors, according to one expert.
“Using the Internet, doctors can answer more questions from more patients in a shorter time,” writes Dr. Dada Pal, a famous doctor in Manchester, UK.
According to Pal, nearly forty percent of American patients say they have used e-mail to communicate with a doctor.
He notes, however, that although patients have such interest, only up to two percent of doctors in the United States offer e-mail service.
Using e-mail , doctors can make sure of their advice and point, patient to patient information materials and other resources on the Internet. It’s said that more than ten thousand health-oriented website already exist now.
However, some people worry that widespread use of medical e-mail might set up two kinds of care—one for Internet “haves” and another for the “have nots”.
But Pal points out that “by the year 2000 nearly every library will offer (Internet and e-mail) services in the United States, allowing even low-income patients to use such means.” Pal also talks about other possible barriers to the acceptance of medical e-mail.
“Doctors may be unwilling to offer e-mail services for fear of increasing workload and uncertainty about payment for the time they spent,” he explains, and patients may worry that their medical information might be read by others. “But these problems can all be solved,” he adds.
E-mail may well help us a lot in health care, Pal concludes, “Patients can get in normal clinics,” he points out, “and they might find communication on the information superhighway less fearful, than face-to-face dialogues with their doctors.”
（?? ）26. The article introduces a new way of patient-doctor communication ____.
A. by e-mail? ??????????????????????????? B. by visiting??
C. by searching the Internet?? ??? D. by using the computer
答案：A
解析：这是全文的主旨。

A. it might have to serve both who have access to the Internet and those who don’t
? ??? B. it might meet double doubts from those who have access to the Internet and those who don’t.
?? ? C. it might make trouble between those who can use the Internet and those who can’t
D. it might make trouble between those who have Internet experiences and those who haven’t
答案：B
解析：从第六段可推断出本题的答案为B
（ ??）28. All the following points are advantages of using medical e-mail expect ____.
A. it is more convenient
B. it is less frightening
C. it enables patients and doctors to understand each other better
D. it provides patients more choices of treatment
答案：D

（ ??）29. What does the word “barrier” mean?
A. 可能??????? ???????? B. 危险?????????? C. 障碍??????????? D.秘密
答案：C

B. Only doctors can use it.

One Version:
Many inventions have made our life more interesting and wonderful. Among the great inventions, I think TV is the most useful one. It can not only be used for getting information and helping us know about what is happening around the world, but also for entertaining people and helping them keep in good mood.
In our life, we just need to turn on the TV and the whole world can be shown before our eyes. TV helps to broaden our horizons and gives us inspirations. It is the TV that gets people around the world closer and makes our world become smaller and smaller.
