The carpenter said, “I think I understand the 44 . Show me the nails and the post hole digger and I’ll be able to do a job that 45 you.” The elder brother had to go to town, so he helped the carpenter 46 the materials ready and then he was off for the day. The carpenter worked hard all that day measuring, sawing, nailing, and hammering. About sunset when the farmer 47 , the carpenter 48 his job. The farmer’s eye opened wide, and his jaw dropped.

第三部分:阅读理解 A
Real policemen hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV.
The first difference is that a policeman’s real life revolved round criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain, running down a street after someone he wants to talk to.
Little of his time is spent in chatting. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid crimes.
Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as he’s arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminal is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks, little effort is spent on searching.
Having made an arrest, a detective really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do that he often has to gather a lot of different evidence.
A third big difference between the drama detective and the real one is the unpleasant pressures: first, as members of a police force, they always have to behave absolutely in accordance with the law. Secondly, as expensive public servants, they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways.
If the detective has to deceive the world, the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. And this separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the world is deepened by the simple—minded—as he see it—of citizens, social workers, doctors, law—makers, and judges, who, instead of eliminating crime, punish the criminals less severely in the hope that this will make them reform. The result, detective feel, is that nine—tenths of their work is re—catching people who should have stayed behind bars. This makes them rather cynical.
56.A policeman has to be trained in criminal law because .
A.he must work hard to help reform criminals B.he must behave as professional lawyers do
C.he must be able to tell when and where a crime is committed
D.he must justify the arrests he makes of criminals
57.What is the most suitable word that describes the work of a policeman according to the passage
A.Dangerous B.Demanding C.Distressing D.Dramatic
58.According to the passage, policeman spend most of their time and efforts .
A.patrolling the street, rain or shine B.tracking and arresting criminals
C.collecting and providing evidence D.consulting the rules of law
59.Why do policeman feel separated from the real of the world
A.Because they do not receive due support from society B.Because they find people insincere to them
C.Because they feel superior to the simple—minded people around them
D.Because they are suspicious of the people around them.

Lack of parent willpower may contribute more to juvenile obesity than under-exercising or overeating. Research suggests that having overweight parents is a big influence upon a child’s weight, with one study finding that children with overweight parents were four times likely to be overweight themselves.
The findings add heat to an already fierce political debate(争论 ) over children obesity. The Prime Minister, John Howard, last week decided that $ 116 million be used for programs to deal with obesity, while the Opposition Leader, Mark Latham, recently announced that his party would move to protect children from unhealthy food advertisements.
Clare Collin, a senior lecturer at the University of Newcastle, believes such programs will definitely fail unless they influence the way of life of whole families. “ If we can’t get parents to take action against their own weight problems, then we can’t expect to influence their kids.” she said.
However, Professor Louise Baur from the Children’s Hospital at Westmead, doubts whether adult education programs offer any solution to weigh problems. “Many parents know they need to lose weight and they know it influence their kids, but they lack the willpower to do anything about it.”
The 10-year study of 150 American children found two-thirds of children with overweight parents became overweight. Only one in six children whose parents were of average weight became overweight.
The president of the Australian Society for the Study of Obesity Associate Professor Gary Witttert, said parents needed help in doing their job and the Opposition Party’s policy might be on the right track.
“We know that driving without a seat belt is unsafe, so we make law against it.” he said. “Obesity is a major public health concern, so why shouldn’t we change the law regarding unhealthy food ads ”
63. What does the underlines phrase “juvenile obesity” mean
A. Adult education B. Childhood overweight C. Parents’ influence D. Growing pains
64.What is TRUE about the program supported by the Prime Minister
A. Debates on them will become less fierce. B. They will be effective in dealing with obesity
C. A large sum of money will be spent on them D. They will influence people’s way of life
65. Both Collins and Baur believe that overweight parents _____.
A. will come up with better solutions B. will help with their children’s education
C. should be more active in reducing weight D. should carry out at least 10 years study
D
Film cameras and digital cameras work in a similar way.
Film cameras
After all, a film camera is basically a light-proof box. It has a lens (镜头)system to focus light onto the film at the back of the camera.
Let’s suppose that we are outside on a beautiful summer day trying to take a picture of the family dog. We are using a film camera.
We finally get the dog to lie still. You point the camera at him. What happens Light goes into the camera lens and hits the shutter. In other words, nothing happens yet.
Now let’s say that the dog looks really cute and you decide to snap a picture. What happens When you press the button, the shutter open for a very short period of time. A small amount of light passes through and hits the film at the back of the camera. This creates an upside-down and reversed (反向的)image on the film.
When you finish the roll of the film, you can take it to the photo shop to develop it and you will have a great picture of your dog!
Cameras come with different lens lengths. Why does it matter Many small cameras have shorter focal lengths, which means that there is a small distance between the lens and the place where the light focuses at the back of the camera. This gives you a large view of the area you are taking a picture of. Lenses with a long focal length show a smaller area but allow you to focus on distant objects and make them bigger. They are often called telephoto lenses. A good example of a long focus lens is one that is used by sports photographers to get photos of football players as if they were standing right beside them.
Digital cameras
In digital cameras, the light falls not on film but onto a sensor (传感器)called a CCD (Charge Coupled Device). This digitally converts light and colour into a digital information or pixels (象素). The CCD is the heart of any digital camera and usually the most expensive part ---- depending on how good it is.
67. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. Both digital cameras and film cameras focus light onto the film at the back of the camera.
B. All cameras have a sensor. C. Digital cameras and film cameras have something in common. .
D. Small cameras usually have longer focal lengths.
68. In the “Film cameras” part, you fail to take the picture of the dog because _____.
A. light goes into the camera lens and hits the shutter B. you haven’t aimed the camera at the dog
C. the image of the dog is not created D.the sensor fails to convert light and colour into a digital information
69. The main reason that sports photographers can get clear and big photos of players is that ____.
A. they use digital cameras B. the lens of their cameras is excellent
C. their focus lenses are short D. their focus lenses are long
70. Generally speaking, a digital camera’s price is ____.
A. closely related to the quality of the CCD B. irrelevant to the quality of the CCD
C. closely related to the lens D. irrelevant to the lens
