阅读下列短文。从题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中， 选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The week I turned 50, my marriage came to a sudden end. My house, furniture and everything I’d owned was sold to pay debts that I didn’t even know I had. In a week I had lost my husband, my home and my parents who had refused to accept a divorce in the family. I’d lost everything except my four teenage children. I used every penny I had to buy five plane tickets from Missouri to Hawaii. Everyone said I was crazy to think I could just run off to an island and survive. I was afraid they were right.
Knowing that no one in the world was going to help us, I rented a cheap apartment. I worked 18 hours a day and lost 30 pounds because I lived on one meal a day. One night as I walked alone on the beach, I saw the red orange glow of the lava(火山岩) pouring out of Kilauea Volcano in the distance. It was time to live my imagination!
The next day, I quit my job and invested my last paycheck in art supplies and began doing what I loved. I hadn’t painted a picture in 15 years. I wondered if I could still paint. My hands trembled the first time I picked up a brush. But before an hour had passed, I was lost in the colors spreading across the canvas(画布) in front of me. And as soon as I started believing in myself, other people started believing in me, too. The first painting sold for $ 1500 before I even had time to frame it.
The past six years have been filled with adventures. My children and I have gone swimming with dolphins, watched whales and hiked around the crater (火山口) rim (边缘) of the volcano. We wake up every morning with the ocean in front of us and the volcano behind us. The dream I had more than 40 years ago is now reality. I’m living freely and happily ever after.
56. It can be inferred from the passage that ___________.
A. the writer didn’t expect her marriage had ended in divorce
B. the writer’s parents encouraged her to divorce
C. the writer’s husband took away most of her property
D. there was something wrong with the writer’s nerves
57. The writer went to Hawaii to __________.
A. free herself from trouble B. spend her holiday
C. make a living D. realize her childhood dream
58. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true
A. the writer was sure she could survive in Hawaii.
B. The writer with her children met with many difficulties when they first arrived in Hawaii.
C. the writer had ever done paintings before.
D. The writer doubted if she could paint well at first.
59. The writer’s dream was to ___________.
A. live in nature with animals B. live near volcanoes and oceans
C. become a successful painter D. live a free life
60. The best title for this passage is “___________”.
A. My broken marriage B. Hard life in Hawaii
C. Adventures over 6 years D. My life after divorce
B
Sometimes people call each other “scared-cat”, but have you ever thought about this expression When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense, and there are changes in the chemicals in its blood-stream.
Although the cat doesn’t realize this, its body is getting ready for action.
If the danger continues, this animal will do one of the two things. It will defend itself, or it will run away as fast as it can.
Something like this also happens to people. When we are excited, angry, scared, or aroused by other emotions, our bodies go through many physical changes. Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense. All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react. We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run.
Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger ----or hit somebody ----and regretted it later Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut It isn’t always wise to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it’s smarter always to hide our feelings No! If you keep feelings of anger, sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illnesses can develop, and you can feel churned up inside. It can actually be bad for your health.
Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside, don’t just go away. It’s as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them, but before long you’d smell them. And if you opened the cupboard, chances are you’d see little fruit flies hovering（盘旋） all over them. They’d be rotten.
You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard. You can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist, but they’ll still be around. And at last you’ll have to deal with them, just like those bananas.
61 .It is mentioned in the passage that human beings get into trouble because _________.
A. they are not as alert as animals
B. they sometimes can’t control their feelings
C. they always do something wrong to other people
D. they don’t pay attention to their physical changes
62. The underlined words “churned up” in the sixth paragraph mean _________.
A. very delighted B. beaten heavily
C. very frightened D. disturbed badly
63. The author wants to tell us in the last two paragraphs that_______
A．you’ll not completely get away from your feelings
B．you should treat emotions as bananas in a cupboard
C．feelings will gradually disappear when you hold them in
D．it is good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside
64. The author writes this article in order to _________
A．tell us that it isn’t good to keep feelings inside
B．give us some advice on how to express our feelings
C．make us deal with feelings in a wise way
D．make us know that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely
C
With only about 1, 000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone(克隆) the animal and save the endangered species(物种). That’s a move similar to what a Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noah’s Ark”.
Noah’s Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos(胚胎), semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A & M’s College of Veterinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.
It is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species of mammals, birds reptiles will become extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.
This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.
The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.
“The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available(capable of being used) panda eggs could be a major problem,” Kraemer believes. “They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby). It takes a long time and it’s difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort,” adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A& M, the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog.
“They are trying to do something that’s never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noah’s Ark. We’re both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and there’s a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. It’s a research that is very much needed.”
65. The aim of “Noah’s Ark” project is to _______.
A. make efforts to clone the endangered pandas
B. save endangered animals from dying out
C. collect DNA of endangered animals to study
D. transfer the nuclear of one animal to another
66. According to Professor Kraemer, the major problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of _______.
A. available panda eggs B. host animals
C. qualified researchers D. enough money
67. The best title for the passage may be _______.
A. China’s Success in Pandas Cloning
B. The First Cloned Panda in the World
C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas
D. China —the Native Place of Pandas Forever
68. From the passage we know that _______.
A. Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a dog
B. scientists try to implant a panda’s egg into a rabbit
C. Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researches
D. about two thousand of species will probably die out in a century
D
TOKYO — Our kids, the Japanese government announced, have forgotten how to behave. They can’t be bothered with housework. If they see someone being wronged, they probably look the other way.
Few countries have placed more importance on being well-behaved in public than Japan. The simplest requests for directions often result in guided tours. Smiling shopkeepers are still the rule. Lost wallets usually make their way to their owners.
But according to recent surveys, all that may be going the way of the ancient hair-do(发式). And Japan’s government has gone into something of a crisis mode.
A Japanese Education Ministry Survey formed late in 1999 and made public last month found that Japan moves behind other nations in teaching youngsters right from wrong.
It also reported that Japanese children are less helpful and do far less housework than their foreign peers in all classes. But they are better about taking dirty dishes to the kitchens after dinner.
In addition, Japanese kids are more likely to dry their hair and carry cell phones than American and Chinese kids, according to another survey, by a Tokyo-based tank..
Children in about 8 per cent of public school classrooms are so disorderly that teachers cannot hold lessons, further recent reports show. children refuse to sit, to listen or to stop talking.
Older and middle-aged Japanese continue to have a solid sense of good manners and social justice, says Professor Yoshina Hirano from Shinshu University, who was appointed to direct the ministry’s survey.
Despite the knowledge of good manners among adults, the breakdown in manners may be spreading, he said.
69. From the first paragraph, we can infer that _______.
A. the Japanese government had gone bad
B. kids in Japan have a bad memory
C. kids in Japan seldom help their parents with housework
D. kids in Japan are too busy to help others
70. The second paragraph seems to show us that _______.
A. the education system of Japan is better than that of any other country
B. shopkeepers in Japan are too kind to their customers
C. Japanese kids often find wallets on their way to their schools
D. Japanese adults in public places act politely to each other
71. It is implied(暗含) in this passage that Japanese kids _______.
A. spending much time doing their homework
B. lead an advanced modern life
C. have their hair cut too often
D. often wash dishes after dinner

Out on the road the jeep already waiting. As I got on beside him, he sat up and started the engine. In a few minutes we were out of the town and heading with great speed in the direction of Bacalar. My hat blew away but when I asked him to stop, he refused. We were being followed by spies and it was necessary to drive fast to throw them off.
The hard and unsmooth surface of the road made the jeep weave. To the danger of being shot off the bank was added the discomfort, the cold, for at the speed we were travelling the air cut through my cotton shirt and trousers. I asked the driver to go slower, adding as an excuse that I wanted to look out for wild animals. He replied that the faster we drove the better our chance of coming up with them before they could run away. He had hardly spoken when the jeep struck a rain-filled pit, which splashed a sheet of muddy water over the windscreen. Blinded, he stopped the jeep with one wheel over the bank. When we got going again it was at a speed little faster than a walking pace.
72. While they were driving towards Bacalar the author _______.
A. asked the driver to drive fast because they were being followed by spies
B. threw off his hat
C. refused to stop because they were being followed by spies
D. asked the driver to stop for his hat
73. The author asked the driver to go slower because ________.
A. he wanted to look for wild animals
B. he was frightened that they might have an accident
C. his shirt and trousers had blown away
D. he had cut himself
74. They continued at a speed little faster than a walking pace because ______.
A. the driver had been blinded
B. the jeep had struck a pit
C. one of the wheels had fallen over the bank
D. they had barely avoided an accident
75. “He had hardly spoken.” means ______.
A. he had shouted B. he had spoken very softly
C. he had just finished speaking D. he had only said a few words

C：【答案与解析】本文讲述中国正在竭力克隆濒临绝种的熊猫，这和Texas A & M University 的Noah's Ark(诺亚方舟)工程极为相似，都是想拯救濒临灭绝的动物。
1. B。语义理解题。从第2段内容可知，“诺亚方舟”工程的目标是把濒临灭绝的动物的蛋(卵)、胚胎、精液和DNA储存在液体氮中，如果某一种动物濒临灭绝时，将来可以重现这一动物。
2. A。细节题。从第6段第1句话 The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available (capable of being used ) panda eggs could be a major problem 可以做出正确判断。
3. C。主旨题。从文章内容来看，无论是中国还是世界克隆熊猫还没有成功，所以排除A、B项；D项内容明显与文章内容不符，故排除。所以“探索克隆熊猫的可能性”应该是这篇文章的标题。
4. D。判断题。此题B项的干扰性较强，但由于它没有说明是Chinese scientists，所以应排除。A、C项明显与原文不符。根据文章第3段第1句可知答案非D莫属。
D：【答案与解析】本文指出尽管日本成年人很有礼貌，但日本小孩的不礼貌行为却在蔓延。
1. C。细节题。根据文章第1段第2句They can’t be bothered with housework可知此题答案为C。
2. D。推断题。从第2段所描述的事情当中：在公共场所行为举止好、指路热心、微笑服务、拾金不昧可推知此题答案为D。
3. B。细节题。根据文章第6段的描述：dry their hair and carry cell phones可知此题答案为B。
E：【答案与解析】本文记述了作者为了摆脱特务的跟踪，而冒险驱车的经历。
1.D。细节题。根据文章第1段第4句：我的帽子掉了，我叫他停车，可推知：作者叫司机停车是为了捡帽，此题答案为D。
2.B。细节题。根据第2段第2句To the danger of being shot off the bank was added the discomfort, the cold… 可推知此题答案为B。
3.D。细节题。根据最后一段倒数第2句：由于看不见，他把车停下来，一只轮胎已离开河岸，可知：差一点儿出了车祸，可推知此题答案为D。
4.C。理解题。短语hardly … when 的意思是“一…就…”，由此可推知此题答案为C。
单词
trouble 2. worth 3. Unfortunately 4. actually 5. lose 6. repairs 7. journey 8. sort 9. comfortable

作文
Most of us agree that music should be played. As we know, music can produce a lively and happy atmosphere. Besides, music provides us with relaxation after hard study, which reduces the tiredness. Listening to music also makes us feel happy.
On the other hand, some students have the opposite view. They don't think they can get the expected results by listening to music, as the break between classes is short. What's needed during the break is peace instead of the noise produced by the music. Besides, in class some students are still lost in the music they have just heard.

A
The week I turned 50, my marriage came to a sudden end. My house, furniture and everything I’d owned was sold to pay debts that I didn’t even know I had. In a week I had lost my husband, my home and my parents who had refused to accept a divorce in the family. I’d lost everything except my four teenage children. I used every penny I had to buy five plane tickets from Missouri to Hawaii. Everyone said I was crazy to think I could just run off to an island and survive. I was afraid they were right.
Knowing that no one in the world was going to help us, I rented a cheap apartment. I worked 18 hours a day and lost 30 pounds because I lived on one meal a day. One night as I walked alone on the beach, I saw the red orange glow of the lava(火山岩) pouring out of Kilauea Volcano in the distance. It was time to live my imagination!
The next day, I quit my job and invested my last paycheck in art supplies and began doing what I loved. I hadn’t painted a picture in 15 years. I wondered if I could still paint. My hands trembled the first time I picked up a brush. But before an hour had passed, I was lost in the colors spreading across the canvas(画布) in front of me. And as soon as I started believing in myself, other people started believing in me, too. The first painting sold for $ 1500 before I even had time to frame it.
The past six years have been filled with adventures. My children and I have gone swimming with dolphins, watched whales and hiked around the crater (火山口) rim (边缘) of the volcano. We wake up every morning with the ocean in front of us and the volcano behind us. The dream I had more than 40 years ago is now reality. I’m living freely and happily ever after.
56. It can be inferred from the passage that ___________.
A. the writer didn’t expect her marriage had ended in divorce
B. the writer’s parents encouraged her to divorce
C. the writer’s husband took away most of her property
D. there was something wrong with the writer’s nerves
57. The writer went to Hawaii to __________.
A. free herself from trouble B. spend her holiday
C. make a living D. realize her childhood dream
58. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true
A. the writer was sure she could survive in Hawaii.
B. The writer with her children met with many difficulties when they first arrived in Hawaii.
C. the writer had ever done paintings before.
D. The writer doubted if she could paint well at first.
59. The writer’s dream was to ___________.
A. live in nature with animals B. live near volcanoes and oceans
C. become a successful painter D. live a free life
60. The best title for this passage is “___________”.
A. My broken marriage B. Hard life in Hawaii
C. Adventures over 6 years D. My life after divorce
B
Sometimes people call each other “scared-cat”, but have you ever thought about this expression When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense, and there are changes in the chemicals in its blood-stream.
Although the cat doesn’t realize this, its body is getting ready for action.
If the danger continues, this animal will do one of the two things. It will defend itself, or it will run away as fast as it can.
Something like this also happens to people. When we are excited, angry, scared, or aroused by other emotions, our bodies go through many physical changes. Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense. All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react. We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run.
Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face. If we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble. Have you ever said something in anger ----or hit somebody ----and regretted it later Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut It isn’t always wise to express your feelings freely.
Does this mean that it’s smarter always to hide our feelings No! If you keep feelings of anger, sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. Physical illnesses can develop, and you can feel churned up inside. It can actually be bad for your health.
Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside, don’t just go away. It’s as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard. You might not be able to see them, but before long you’d smell them. And if you opened the cupboard, chances are you’d see little fruit flies hovering（盘旋） all over them. They’d be rotten.
You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard. You can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist, but they’ll still be around. And at last you’ll have to deal with them, just like those bananas.
61 .It is mentioned in the passage that human beings get into trouble because _________.
A. they are not as alert as animals
B. they sometimes can’t control their feelings
C. they always do something wrong to other people
D. they don’t pay attention to their physical changes
62. The underlined words “churned up” in the sixth paragraph mean _________.
A. very delighted B. beaten heavily
C. very frightened D. disturbed badly
63. The author wants to tell us in the last two paragraphs that_______
A．you’ll not completely get away from your feelings
B．you should treat emotions as bananas in a cupboard
C．feelings will gradually disappear when you hold them in
D．it is good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside
64. The author writes this article in order to _________
A．tell us that it isn’t good to keep feelings inside
B．give us some advice on how to express our feelings
C．make us deal with feelings in a wise way
D．make us know that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely
C
With only about 1, 000 pandas left in the world, China is desperately trying to clone(克隆) the animal and save the endangered species(物种). That’s a move similar to what a Texas A & M University researchers have been undertaking for the past five years in a project called “Noah’s Ark”.
Noah’s Ark is aimed at collecting eggs, embryos(胚胎), semen and DNA of endangered animals and storing them in liquid nitrogen. If certain species should become extinct, Dr. Duane Kraemer, a professor in Texas A & M’s College of Veterinary Medicine, says there would be enough of the basic building blocks to reintroduce the species in the future.
It is estimated that as many as 2, 000 species of mammals, birds reptiles will become extinct in over 100 years. The panda, native only to China, is in danger of becoming extinct in the next 25 years.
This week, Chinese scientists said they grew an embryo by introducing cells from a dead female panda into the egg cells of a Japanese white rabbit. They are now trying to implant the embryo into a host animal.
The entire procedure could take from three to five years to complete.
“The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available(capable of being used) panda eggs could be a major problem,” Kraemer believes. “They will probably have to do several hundred transfers to result in one pregnancy (having a baby). It takes a long time and it’s difficult, but this could be groundbreaking science if it works. They are certainly not putting any live pandas at risk, so it is worth the effort,” adds Kraemer, who is one of the leaders of the Project at Texas A& M, the first-ever attempt at cloning a dog.
“They are trying to do something that’s never been done, and this is very similar to our work in Noah’s Ark. We’re both trying to save animals that face extinction. I certainly appreciate their effort and there’s a lot we can learn from what they are attempting to do. It’s a research that is very much needed.”
65. The aim of “Noah’s Ark” project is to _______.
A. make efforts to clone the endangered pandas
B. save endangered animals from dying out
C. collect DNA of endangered animals to study
D. transfer the nuclear of one animal to another
66. According to Professor Kraemer, the major problem in cloning pandas would be the lack of _______.
A. available panda eggs B. host animals
C. qualified researchers D. enough money
67. The best title for the passage may be _______.
A. China’s Success in Pandas Cloning
B. The First Cloned Panda in the World
C. Exploring the Possibility to Clone Pandas
D. China —the Native Place of Pandas Forever
68. From the passage we know that _______.
A. Kraemer and his team have succeeded in cloning a dog
B. scientists try to implant a panda’s egg into a rabbit
C. Kraemer will work with Chinese scientists in clone researches
D. about two thousand of species will probably die out in a century
D
TOKYO — Our kids, the Japanese government announced, have forgotten how to behave. They can’t be bothered with housework. If they see someone being wronged, they probably look the other way.
Few countries have placed more importance on being well-behaved in public than Japan. The simplest requests for directions often result in guided tours. Smiling shopkeepers are still the rule. Lost wallets usually make their way to their owners.
But according to recent surveys, all that may be going the way of the ancient hair-do(发式). And Japan’s government has gone into something of a crisis mode.
A Japanese Education Ministry Survey formed late in 1999 and made public last month found that Japan moves behind other nations in teaching youngsters right from wrong.
It also reported that Japanese children are less helpful and do far less housework than their foreign peers in all classes. But they are better about taking dirty dishes to the kitchens after dinner.
In addition, Japanese kids are more likely to dry their hair and carry cell phones than American and Chinese kids, according to another survey, by a Tokyo-based tank..
Children in about 8 per cent of public school classrooms are so disorderly that teachers cannot hold lessons, further recent reports show. children refuse to sit, to listen or to stop talking.
Older and middle-aged Japanese continue to have a solid sense of good manners and social justice, says Professor Yoshina Hirano from Shinshu University, who was appointed to direct the ministry’s survey.
Despite the knowledge of good manners among adults, the breakdown in manners may be spreading, he said.
69. From the first paragraph, we can infer that _______.
A. the Japanese government had gone bad
B. kids in Japan have a bad memory
C. kids in Japan seldom help their parents with housework
D. kids in Japan are too busy to help others
70. The second paragraph seems to show us that _______.
A. the education system of Japan is better than that of any other country
B. shopkeepers in Japan are too kind to their customers
C. Japanese kids often find wallets on their way to their schools
D. Japanese adults in public places act politely to each other
71. It is implied(暗含) in this passage that Japanese kids _______.
A. spending much time doing their homework
B. lead an advanced modern life
C. have their hair cut too often
D. often wash dishes after dinner

Out on the road the jeep already waiting. As I got on beside him, he sat up and started the engine. In a few minutes we were out of the town and heading with great speed in the direction of Bacalar. My hat blew away but when I asked him to stop, he refused. We were being followed by spies and it was necessary to drive fast to throw them off.
The hard and unsmooth surface of the road made the jeep weave. To the danger of being shot off the bank was added the discomfort, the cold, for at the speed we were travelling the air cut through my cotton shirt and trousers. I asked the driver to go slower, adding as an excuse that I wanted to look out for wild animals. He replied that the faster we drove the better our chance of coming up with them before they could run away. He had hardly spoken when the jeep struck a rain-filled pit, which splashed a sheet of muddy water over the windscreen. Blinded, he stopped the jeep with one wheel over the bank. When we got going again it was at a speed little faster than a walking pace.
72. While they were driving towards Bacalar the author _______.
A. asked the driver to drive fast because they were being followed by spies
B. threw off his hat
C. refused to stop because they were being followed by spies
D. asked the driver to stop for his hat
73. The author asked the driver to go slower because ________.
A. he wanted to look for wild animals
B. he was frightened that they might have an accident
C. his shirt and trousers had blown away
D. he had cut himself
74. They continued at a speed little faster than a walking pace because ______.
A. the driver had been blinded
B. the jeep had struck a pit
C. one of the wheels had fallen over the bank
D. they had barely avoided an accident
75. “He had hardly spoken.” means ______.
A. he had shouted B. he had spoken very softly
C. he had just finished speaking D. he had only said a few words

C：【答案与解析】本文讲述中国正在竭力克隆濒临绝种的熊猫，这和Texas A & M University 的Noah's Ark(诺亚方舟)工程极为相似，都是想拯救濒临灭绝的动物。
1. B。语义理解题。从第2段内容可知，“诺亚方舟”工程的目标是把濒临灭绝的动物的蛋(卵)、胚胎、精液和DNA储存在液体氮中，如果某一种动物濒临灭绝时，将来可以重现这一动物。
2. A。细节题。从第6段第1句话 The nuclear transfer(核子移植) of one species to another is not easy, and the lack of available (capable of being used ) panda eggs could be a major problem 可以做出正确判断。
3. C。主旨题。从文章内容来看，无论是中国还是世界克隆熊猫还没有成功，所以排除A、B项；D项内容明显与文章内容不符，故排除。所以“探索克隆熊猫的可能性”应该是这篇文章的标题。
4. D。判断题。此题B项的干扰性较强，但由于它没有说明是Chinese scientists，所以应排除。A、C项明显与原文不符。根据文章第3段第1句可知答案非D莫属。
D：【答案与解析】本文指出尽管日本成年人很有礼貌，但日本小孩的不礼貌行为却在蔓延。
1. C。细节题。根据文章第1段第2句They can’t be bothered with housework可知此题答案为C。
2. D。推断题。从第2段所描述的事情当中：在公共场所行为举止好、指路热心、微笑服务、拾金不昧可推知此题答案为D。
3. B。细节题。根据文章第6段的描述：dry their hair and carry cell phones可知此题答案为B。
E：【答案与解析】本文记述了作者为了摆脱特务的跟踪，而冒险驱车的经历。
1.D。细节题。根据文章第1段第4句：我的帽子掉了，我叫他停车，可推知：作者叫司机停车是为了捡帽，此题答案为D。
2.B。细节题。根据第2段第2句To the danger of being shot off the bank was added the discomfort, the cold… 可推知此题答案为B。
3.D。细节题。根据最后一段倒数第2句：由于看不见，他把车停下来，一只轮胎已离开河岸，可知：差一点儿出了车祸，可推知此题答案为D。
4.C。理解题。短语hardly … when 的意思是“一…就…”，由此可推知此题答案为C。

Most of us agree that music should be played. As we know, music can produce a lively and happy atmosphere. Besides, music provides us with relaxation after hard study, which reduces the tiredness. Listening to music also makes us feel happy.
On the other hand, some students have the opposite view. They don't think they can get the expected results by listening to music, as the break between classes is short. What's needed during the break is peace instead of the noise produced by the music. Besides, in class some students are still lost in the music they have just heard.
