One morning mor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the humblest (卑微的) to the most powerful came for breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat disheveled. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.
We cautiously b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )egan a conversation and spoke about a wide rang of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked,
"May I get you something "
"A coffee would be nice."
Then I bought him ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a cup of coffee, We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,
"How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath "
"Who "
"The man you ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs."
I could hardly ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world's richest and most powerful men!
My few minutes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I try to treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and to meet another human being with kindness and sincerity.
24. What does the underlined word "disheveled" mean
A. Unfriendly. B. Untidy. C. Gentle. D. Kind.
25. The author bought coffee for the old man because _____.
A. he thought the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) old man was poor B. he wanted to start a conversation
C. he intended to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )show his politeness D. he would like to thank the old man
26. How did the author probably feel after he talked with his friend
A. Proud. B. Pitiful. C. Surprised. D. Regretful.
27. What is the message mainly expressed in the story
A. We should learn to be generous.
B. It is honorable to help those in need.
C. People in high positions are not like what we expect.
D. We should avoid judging people by their appearances.
C
Modern inventions h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ave speeded up people’s lives amazingly. Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour. Aircraft cross the world a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending. Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boasts （吹嘘）of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.
All thi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag(时差); our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have their dangers according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about.
Howeve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r, what do we do with the time we have saved Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imagination take us into another world.
There was a ti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )me when some people’s lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced: they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.
28. The new products b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ecome more and more time-saving because .
A. our love of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )speed seems never-ending B. time is limited
C. the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )prices are increasingly high D. the manufacturers boast a lot
29. What does “the days” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. Imag ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )inary life B. Simple life in the past
C. Times of in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ventions D. Time for constant activity
30. What is the author’s attitude towards the modern technology
A. Critical ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) B. Objective C. Optimistic D. Negative
31. What does the passage mainly discuss
A. The pre ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sent and past times B. Machinery and human beings
C. Imagin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ations and inventions D. Modern technology and its influence
D
Every day we experi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ence one of the wonders of the world around us without even realizing it. It is not the amazing complexity of television, nor the impressive technology of transport. The universal wonder we share and experience is our ability to make noise with our mouths, and so transmit ideas and thoughts to each other’s minds. This ability comes so naturally that we tend to forget what a miracle (奇迹)it is.
Obviously, the ab ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ility to talk is something that marks humans off from animal. Of course, some animals have powers just as amazing, Birds can fly thousands miles by observing positions of the stars in the sky in relation to the time of day and year. In Nature’s talent show, humans are a species of animal that have developed their own special act. If we reduce it to basic terms, it’s an ability for communicating information to others, by varying sounds we make as we breathe out.
Not that we don’t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )have other powers of communication. Our facial expressions convey our emotions, such as anger, or joy, or disappointment. The way we hold our heads can indicate to others whether we are happy or sad. This is so-called “body language”. Bristling(直立的) fur is an unmistakable warning of attack among many animals. Similarly, the bowed head or drooping tail shows a readiness to take second place in any animal gathering.
Such a means of com ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )munication is a basic mechanism that animals, including human beings, instinctively acquire and display. Is the ability to speak just another sort of instinct If so, how did human being sacquire this amazing skill Biologist can readily indicate that particular area of our brain where speech mechanisms function, but this doesn’t tell us how that part of our bodies originated in our biological history.
32.According ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to the passage, the wonder we take for granted is________.
A. our ability to use language
B. the miracle of technology
C. the amazing power of nature
D. our ability to make noises with mouth
33.What feature o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f “body language” mentioned in the passage is common to both human and animals
A. Lifting heads when sad.
B. Keeping long faces when angry.
C. Bristling hair when ready to attack.
D. Bowing heads when willing to obey.
34.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3
A. Body language is unique to humans.
B. Animals express emotions just as humans do.
C. Humans have other powers of communication.
D. Humans are no different from animals to some degree.
35.This passage is mainly about _______.
A. the development of body language.
B. the special role humans play in nature
C. the power to convey information to others
D. the difference between humans and animals in language use

71．很多不同的人对电视的发展做出了贡 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )献。Most early TV broadcasts were made using a system developed by John Logic Baird in the UK. However ,his system was very primitive and had many drawbacks. 72. An American made important breakthroughs in the development of TV in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Modern TVs use many of the principles first discovered by Farnsworth.
Satellites were used ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to broadcast TV beginning in 1962. 73. Satellites allow TV to be broadcast live over vast distances, with everyone receiving the same broadcast at the same time. 74. 它们也使远离城市的人们可以收看电视，and satellite dishes can often be seen distributed throughout the countryside and remote areas. Of course, only a small percentage of people own satellite dishes. However, 75. most people still benefit from satellite TV, as local TV companies broadcast the signals they get from satellite receivers to the population living nearby.

One morning mor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the humblest (卑微的) to the most powerful came for breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat disheveled. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.
We cautiously b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )egan a conversation and spoke about a wide rang of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter and buy a second cup of coffee, I asked,
"May I get you something "
"A coffee would be nice."
Then I bought him ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a cup of coffee, We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked,
"How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath "
"Who "
"The man you ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )were sitting with. He is chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs."
I could hardly ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world's richest and most powerful men!
My few minutes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I try to treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and to meet another human being with kindness and sincerity.
24. What does the underlined word "disheveled" mean
A. Unfriendly. B. Untidy. C. Gentle. D. Kind.
25. The author bought coffee for the old man because _____.
A. he thought the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) old man was poor B. he wanted to start a conversation
C. he intended to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )show his politeness D. he would like to thank the old man
26. How did the author probably feel after he talked with his friend

27. What is the message mainly expressed in the story
A. We should learn to be generous.
B. It is honorable to help those in need.
C. People in high positions are not like what we expect.
D. We should avoid judging people by their appearances.
C
Modern inventions h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ave speeded up people’s lives amazingly. Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour. Aircraft cross the world a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed seems never-ending. Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boasts （吹嘘）of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.
All thi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag(时差); our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have their dangers according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about.
Howeve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r, what do we do with the time we have saved Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imagination take us into another world.
There was a ti ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )me when some people’s lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pattern. There is much that we might envy about a way of life like this. Yet before we do so, we must think of the hard tasks our ancestors faced: they farmed with bare hands, often lived close to hunger, and had to fashion tools from wood and stone. Modern machinery has freed people from that primitive existence.
28. The new products b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ecome more and more time-saving because .
A. our love of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )speed seems never-ending B. time is limited
C. the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )prices are increasingly high D. the manufacturers boast a lot
29. What does “the days” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A. Imag ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )inary life B. Simple life in the past
C. Times of in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ventions D. Time for constant activity
30. What is the author’s attitude towards the modern technology
A. Critical ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) B. Objective C. Optimistic D. Negative
31. What does the passage mainly discuss
A. The pre ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sent and past times B. Machinery and human beings
C. Imagin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ations and inventions D. Modern technology and its influence
D
Every day we experi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ence one of the wonders of the world around us without even realizing it. It is not the amazing complexity of television, nor the impressive technology of transport. The universal wonder we share and experience is our ability to make noise with our mouths, and so transmit ideas and thoughts to each other’s minds. This ability comes so naturally that we tend to forget what a miracle (奇迹)it is.
Obviously, the ab ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ility to talk is something that marks humans off from animal. Of course, some animals have powers just as amazing, Birds can fly thousands miles by observing positions of the stars in the sky in relation to the time of day and year. In Nature’s talent show, humans are a species of animal that have developed their own special act. If we reduce it to basic terms, it’s an ability for communicating information to others, by varying sounds we make as we breathe out.
Not that we don’t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )have other powers of communication. Our facial expressions convey our emotions, such as anger, or joy, or disappointment. The way we hold our heads can indicate to others whether we are happy or sad. This is so-called “body language”. Bristling(直立的) fur is an unmistakable warning of attack among many animals. Similarly, the bowed head or drooping tail shows a readiness to take second place in any animal gathering.
Such a means of com ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )munication is a basic mechanism that animals, including human beings, instinctively acquire and display. Is the ability to speak just another sort of instinct If so, how did human being sacquire this amazing skill Biologist can readily indicate that particular area of our brain where speech mechanisms function, but this doesn’t tell us how that part of our bodies originated in our biological history.
32.According ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to the passage, the wonder we take for granted is________.
A. our ability to use language
B. the miracle of technology
C. the amazing power of nature
D. our ability to make noises with mouth
33.What feature o ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )f “body language” mentioned in the passage is common to both human and animals
A. Lifting heads when sad.
B. Keeping long faces when angry.
C. Bristling hair when ready to attack.
D. Bowing heads when willing to obey.
34.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3
A. Body language is unique to humans.
B. Animals express emotions just as humans do.
C. Humans have other powers of communication.
D. Humans are no different from animals to some degree.
35.This passage is mainly about _______.
A. the development of body language.
B. the special role humans play in nature
C. the power to convey information to others
D. the difference between humans and animals in language use

71．很多不同的人对电视的发展做出了贡 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )献。Most early TV broadcasts were made using a system developed by John Logic Baird in the UK. However ,his system was very primitive and had many drawbacks. 72. An American made important breakthroughs in the development of TV in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Modern TVs use many of the principles first discovered by Farnsworth.
Satellites were used ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to broadcast TV beginning in 1962. 73. Satellites allow TV to be broadcast live over vast distances, with everyone receiving the same broadcast at the same time. 74. 它们也使远离城市的人们可以收看电视，and satellite dishes can often be seen distributed throughout the countryside and remote areas. Of course, only a small percentage of people own satellite dishes. However, 75. most people still benefit from satellite TV, as local TV companies broadcast the signals they get from satellite receivers to the population living nearby.
