It’s not just women who wear skirts. Men can wear them too. In Scotland, men wear a kind of skirt called a kilt. The kilt is their national dress and an important part of their tradition (传统).
A kilt is a coloured skirt reaching down to the knees (膝盖). It has checks (格子) on it with different colours, like red or blue. Each family in Scotland has its own colours.
How did the Scots start to wear kilts There are many stories about it. One story is that the kilt was invented (发明) in the 1720s by an English factory owner, Thomas Rawlinson. Rawlinson had a lot of Scottish workers in his factory and he thought their clothing got in the way of their work. So he cut their long clothes into shorter skirts.
Today, most Scotsmen see kilts as formal (正式的) dresses. They usually only wear them at weddings or big dinners. There are only a few men who still wear a kilt every day. Scots also wear kilts in parades when they play their traditional musical instrument (乐器): the bagpipe (风笛). The army still has kilts as the uniform (制服), but they no longer wear them to fight (战斗).

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了一名司机晚上接到一名乘客，但车程本只需要付三美元，于是司机为了多赚钱绕路，最终要十五美元，被乘客发现后得知乘客上回乘车也被绕路花费了十三美元。
40．句意：当他经过火车站的时候，他看见一个男人手里拎着两个包走出来，所以他快速打开车门问：“先生，你要去哪里？”根据后文“opened the door of the car and asked”可推测，男人是从火车站里走出来，结合首字母可推测用动词come，且此处可用see sb. do sth.“看到某人做了某事”，也可用see sb. doing sth.“看到某人正在做某事”。故填(c)oming/(c)ome。
41．句意：当他经过火车站的时候，他看见一个男人手里拎着两个包走出来，所以他快速打开车门问：“先生，你要去哪里？”根据前文“The taxi driver didn’t have even one passenger all day.”可知，司机一整天都没有乘客，可推测他很急切想要拉到人，结合首字母可推测，用副词quickly“迅速地”。故填(q)uickly。
42．句意：当出租车司机听到那个，他不再觉得开心了。根据前文“‘To the Star Hotel,’ the young man answered.”可知，空后that指代的是年轻男人说的话，结合首字母可推测，此处用动词hear“听到”，且时态用一般过去时，表示过去的动作。故填(h)eard。
43．句意：当出租车司机听到那个，他不再觉得开心了。根据后文“He knew the young man would give him only three dollars...”可知，司机知道这个年轻人只要付三美元，可推测司机本来能拉到人是高兴的，但是钱赚不多，就不再高兴了，结合首字母可知，此处用形容词happy“高兴的”。故填(h)appy。
44．句意：他知道这个年轻男人只会给他三美元因为这个旅馆离火车站不远。根据“give him only three dollars”可推测，路程比较短，所以旅馆离火车站不远，结合首字母可推测，此处用形容词far“远的”。故填(f)ar。
45．句意：但突然，他有了一个想法。分析句子结构可知，此处应是副词，修饰整个句子，结合首字母可推测，此处用副词suddenly“突然地”。故填(s)uddenly。
46．句意：在很久之后，车到达了旅馆。根据前文“He took the passenger through many streets of the big city.”可知，司机带着乘客穿过了这座大城市的很多街道，可推测司机绕路了，花费的时间多或是旅程长，结合首字母可推测，此处可用名词time“时间”或名词trip“旅程”。故填(t)rip/(t)ime。
47．句意：“你应该付我十五美元。”司机对年轻人说。根据前文“You should pay me fifteen dollars”可知，这句是司机对年轻人说的话，结合首字母可推测，此处用动词say，且用一般过去时，表示过去的动作。故填(s)aid。
48．句意：我知道这趟行程要付多少钱。分析句子结构并结合句意可知，此处考查宾语从句连接词，与how构成短语，结合首字母可推测，此处用代词much，构成how much“多少钱”。故填(m)uch。
49．句意：我不会比上周付给出租车司机的钱多给你一美元。根据空后“than”可知，此处是比较级，空处应用形容词的比较级形式，且此时结合首字母可推测，此处用more“更多的”。故填(m)ore。
七、材料作文
50．你听说过一头叫Alice的鲸鱼（whale）吗？它被称为世界上最孤独的鲸，原因是这只鲸说话的频率有52赫兹，而正常鲸的频率只有15～25赫兹，所以说话的时候没有人听见，难过的时候也没有人理睬。请你根据下列描述，写一篇关于她的小短文。

【答案】People found Alice the first time in 1989. It was 39 feet long. People were surprised to find that Alice spoke at a different HZ from other whales. No other whales could hear it. It couldn’t find its family and friends. It swam across the Pacific Ocean by itself. It was lucky that Alice seemed healthy. But people lost Alice’s news in 2004. I hope it is still healthy/ it found its family and friends at last/I’m sorry to hear that news.
