阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C 和 D) 中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Have you ever seen a horse with toes (脚趾)? Millions of years ago, horses had many toes. They had four toes on each front foot. They had three toes on each back foot. The horses were smaller than cats.
These small horses lived in the forest. Their many toes helped the horses run over the soft wet ground.
It was very hot in the forest. But the weather changed. It became cold. Many trees couldn’t live in cold weather. The trees died and fell. Open field took the place of (代替) forest. The sun made the ground dry and hard (坚硬). Horses began to change too. They began to get bigger. This took a long time. On the dry hard land, horses needed only their middle toes for running. Their middle toes became hard. After a long time horses had only one hard toe on each foot. We call this hard toe a hoof (马蹄).
56. Long ago, the horse had four toes on each of its __________.
A. back feet B. front feet
C. right feet D. left feet

A. The weather stays the same the whole year all over the world.
B. When the weather changed, animals began to change too.
C. Cats were older than the horses.
D. Horses were the same as they are.
59. On the dry hard land _________.
A. horses needed a lot of room for running.
B. A horse needed more than four toes for running.
C. horses needed only their middle toes for running.
D. horses didn’t need any toes.
60. Now each horse has ________ on its feet.
A. one toe B. two toes
C. three toes D. four toes
B
People have smoked cigarettes for a long time now. The tobacco used to make cigarettes was grown in what is now part of the United States. Christopher Columbus, who discovered America, saw the Indians smoking, and soon the dried leaves were transported (运输) to Europe where smoking began to catch on. In the late 1800s, the Turks (土耳其人) made cigarettes popular.
Cigarettes smoke contains at least two harmful substances (物质), tar and nicotine. Tar, which forms as the tobacco bums, damages the lungs and therefore affects breathing. Nicotine, which is found in the leaves, causes the heart to beat faster and increases breathing rate (频率).
Smoking cigarettes is dangerous. The U.S. Public Health Service stated that cigarette smoking is the cause of lung cancers and several other deadly diseases. The U.S. government now requires that each package of cigarettes bear (带有) a special warning about the danger of smoking.
61. The expression “catch on” in the passage may mean ______.
A. start B. cost a lot
C. become popular D. dangerous
62. Before Columbus discovered America ______.
A. Europeans had smoked
B. Nobody smoked in the world
C. Nicotine was not in tobacco
D. Europeans had never smoked
63. In the nineteenth century smoking became popular because of the people in ______.
A. India B. Turkey
C. the U.S. D. British
64. Breathing is affected by ______.
A. nicotine B. tar
C. heat D. both A and B
65. Which of the following is Not right?
A. Smoking cigarettes is thought to be dangerous.
B. The U.S. Public Health Service has found the cause of lung cancers and several other deadly diseases.
C. Cigarette smoking is the cause of lung cancers and several other deadly diseases. D. The U.S. government wants smokers to know the danger of smoking.
C
Having Breakfast Or Not
Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? A short time ago, a test (试验) was given in the United States. People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfast, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists (科学家) wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfast.
The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he or she will learn more quickly and listen more carefully in class. The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight (减轻体重). This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight (增加体重) instead of losing it. You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.
66. During the test, the people were given ________.
A. no breakfast at all
B. very rich breakfast
C. different foods or sometimes none
D. little food for breakfast
67. The results show that ________.
A. breakfast has little to do with a person’s work
B. breakfast has great effect (影响) on work and studies
C. a person will work better if he only has fruit and milk
D. girl students should have less for breakfast
68. According to (根据) the passage, some people think that if you don’t have breakfast, you will __________.
A. be healthier
B. work better
C. lose weight
D. fail the test
69. The word “reduce” in the last sentence means _________ .
A. 减少 B. 增加 C. 放弃 D. 享用
70. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. It is bad for your health to have no breakfast.
B. Too little for breakfast and too much for lunch may make you fatter.
C. If you don’t eat much for lunch and supper, you may lose weight.
D. The more breakfast you have, the more quickly you’ll learn in class.
D
“Father Christmas” (or “Santa Claus” ) has become the human face of Christmas. Pictures will be seen everywhere of the old man with long white beard, red coat, and bag of toys. Children are taught that he brings them presents the night before Christmas, and many children up to the age of 7 or 8 really believe this is true. In most countries, it is said that he lives near the North Pole, and arrives through the sky on a sledge (snow-cart) pulled by reindeer(驯鹿). He comes into houses down the chimney at midnight and places presents for the children in socks or bags by their beds or in front of the family Christmas tree.
In shops or at children’s parties, someone will dress up as Father Christmas and give small presents to children, or ask them what gifts they want for Christmas. Christmas can be a time of magic and excitement for children.
Father Christmas is based on a real person, St. Nicholas, which explains his other name “Santa Claus” which comes from the Dutch “Sinterklaas”. Nicholas was a Christian leader from Myra (in modern-day Turkey) in the 4th century AD. He was very shy, and wanted to give money to poor people without them knowing about it. It is said that one day, he climbed the roof of a house and dropped a purse of money down the chimney. It landed in the stocking which a girl had put to dry by the fire! This may explain the belief that Father Christmas comes down the chimney and places gifts in children’s stockings.
71. According to the passage, “Santa Claus” .
A. has a long black beard
B. wears a yellow coat
has a basket of toys
D. usually arrives on a sledge pulled by reindeer
72. “Father Christmas” sends presents to children on .
A. New Year’s Eve B. June 1st
C. the night of December 24th D. the night of October 25th
73. Which of the following is NOT true about St. Nicholas?
A. He was good at climbing into the houses to steal money.
B. He lived in the 4th century AD.
C. He was a Christian.
D. He was shy and kind.
74. What’s St. Nicholas nationality?
A. He was a Dutchman. B. He was from Myra.
C. He was an Englishman. D. He was from America.
75. The sentence “Christmas can be a time of magic and excitement for children.” means .
A. Children are magic on Christmas.
B. Father Christmas is very magical.
C. Children are happy during Christmas because Father Christmas is magical.
D. Children are very excited during Christmas because it’s a wonderful time for them.

Dear George,
Very glad to have received your letter. Now I’d like to tell you bout fishermen’s household hotels in my city.
The household hotel is nice to stay in. Not only can you learn about China clearly, you can feel at home as well by dining with the family for only 20 yuan a day. Of course you can cook by yourself if the menu doesn’t satisfy you.
It is really cheap to live in a single room for 30 yuan a day and a double room for 20 yuan each. You can bathe and swim in the sea, climb the hill and do unpaid jobs in the greenhouse if you’d like to.
By the way, I can serve as your interpreter if you want one. And I’ll pay my own hotel bill.
Best wishes.
Yours
