A. True or False (判断下列句子是否符合短文内容，符合的用 “T” 表示，不符合的用 “F”表示)：（7分）
Jenkins was a jewler, a master craftsman (工匠) in the Silkstone Jewellery company. Ten years ago, he made a large diamond ring for the company. It was worth ＄2,000. The second ring looked exactly like the first one. Jenkins knew it would pass all the usual tests—except one possibility. Jenkins gave the much more valuable ring to his wife on her fortieth birthday, and the couple flew to Paris for a weekend. Later, the company sold the ring for ＄6,000.
Six months ago the buyer brought it back to Silkstone’s head office. “It’s a faulty diamond,” he said. “It isn’t worth the high price I paid.”
He explained the facts. His wife’s car had caught fire in an accident. She escaped, but the ring had come off her finger. It had fallen to the ground and been damaged in the great heat of the burning petrol.
The company had to agree. They knew that no fire on earth can ever damage a perfect diamond. Someone had taken the real diamond and put a faulty stone in its place. The question was: who?
A picture of the ring appeared in the newspaper. A professional photographer recognized the ring. The next day there was another picture in the paper: it showed a famous actress walking out to a plane for Paris. Behind the actress there was a woman wearing a large diamond ring. “Do you know the woman with the lovely diamond ring?” the papers asked the readers.
At his trial (审讯), Jenkins asked the judge to consider eighty-one similar crimes against the Silkstone Jewellery company.
The judge said, “You are a master craftsman who turned bad. I feel rather sorry. But I must send you to prison for seven years.”
71. From the passage we can tell that the master craftsman is good at making diamond rings.
72. Jenkins made a large diamond ring for his wife on her fortieth birthday.
73. The Silkstone company didn’t know about the faulty diamond ring they had sold for $2,000 until they received the complaint from the buyer.
74. The faulty ring looked just like the real one except that it would be seriously damaged in a fire.
75. The actress in the photograph gave the judge very important clues.
76. It was the professional photographer that helped to find the criminal.
77. The master craftsman wasn’t put into prison at last.
B. Choose the best answer (根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案)：（7分）
It was 9:15 as Marie hurried into the office building; her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day. Once inside the lobby (大厅), she had to stand in the elevators and wait several minutes before she could get on one going to the sixth floor. When she finally reached the office marked “King Enterprises”, she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no answer. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no reply. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in. Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks ago when she had the interview with Mr King, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an office at all. The employees（雇员） were just standing around chatting and smoking. At the end of the room, somebody must have just told a funny joke, she thought, because there was a loud of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her. Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others. Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any attention to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr King, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realized that the day’s work in the office began just before Mr King arrived.

Chinese parents are very generous when they are educating their children. Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad—to England, the USA or Australia. The Chinese 85 that the more expensive the education is, the better it is. So parents will spend a lot of money on their children’s education. Even 86 parents will buy a computer for their son or daughter. Though they’re not rich, they would rather pay for the education.
Parents can see that their children’s skills are different, skilled (有技能的) in some areas while poor in others. But most parents fail to realize that the children today need more self-confidence.
The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to 87 tests and how to study well, but they are not teaching them the most important skills that they need. And these skills are important to help them to become confident, happy and clever.
Parents can achieve this 88 teaching their children the skills like cooking or doing other housework.
Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life. Cooking needs patience and time. It is an interesting but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking, so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish 89 job successfully. The result, a well-cooked dinner, will make him feel good and give him a lot of self-confidence.
Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play 90 , will make him interested in learning and want to know more. He will spend hours studying them and trying to fix them. Your child might become an engineer when he 91 . These activities are teaching a child not only to study well at school, but also to think, to use his mind. And that is more important.
85. A. compare B. believe C. disagree D. think
86. A. old B. rich C. poor D. tough

Many years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver, I was driving to my parents’ home in Missouri for Christmas. I stopped at a gas station (加油站) about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, w________(92) I was planning to stop to visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register (收款台), I said hello to an older couple w________(93) were also paying for gas.
I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered w________(94) I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way to the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I r________(95) a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had m________(96) their holiday meaningful.
Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery (电池) was dead. Then I n________(97) that the Friendly Ford dealership—a shop selling cars—was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.
“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would a________(98) no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write to him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.
“Thank you”—two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.
E. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)：（14分）
Greenwich (格林威治) is on the River Thames, five miles away from the middle of London, and it has a two-thousand-year history. The first English people were fishermen there, and they named the place Greenwich, meaning “green village”. Later the English kings and queens lived at Greenwich in their beautiful palaces.
The name of the earliest palace was Placentia. Its windows were made of glass—the first in England. Henry VIII lived there. He knew that England must be strong at sea. So he started two big ship yards (船坞) at Greenwich, and for 350 years the ships which were made there were the best in the world.
But trouble was coming to Greenwich. In 1649, a war started in England and for eleven years there was no king. The men who had worked for him at Placentia decided to live in the palace themselves. They sold all its beautiful things, and bought small pieces of the palace garden with money. Finally the war ended and King Charles II came back. But Placentia was falling down. So King Charles built a new and bigger palace, which is now open to the public.
At that time, Charles was worried about losing so many of its ships at sea; their sailors didn’t know how to tell exactly where they were. So in 1678, Charles made John Flamsteed, the first astronomer (天文学家) in England, try to find the answers. Flamsteed worked in a new building on the high ground in Greenwich Park. From it with a telescope which he made 15 himself, Flamsteed could watch all around the sky. And he did, night after night, for twenty years. Continuing Flamsteed’s work a hundred years later, an astronomer called Harrison finally made a clock which told the time at sea, and helped sailors to know where they were. You can see Harrison’s clock, still working, in Greenwich’s museum. Because of both men’s work, every country in the world now tells its time by Greenwich time.

My opinion on cheating in examinations
It is known that some students cheat in examinations at school. Why do some students cheat? For one thing, some of the students who cheat don’t study hard and turn to cheating in exams. And for another, they want to get higher marks than others so that they can please their parents and teachers.
In my opinion, to be students, we should know how important honesty is. Cheating in exams will not only break the school rules but also will have a very bad effect on students’ habit of studying. Those who usually cheat in exams will never treat study seriously again because they believe they can always get good marks without hard-working.

E. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)：（14分）
Greenwich (格林威治) is on the River Thames, five miles away from the middle of London, and it has a two-thousand-year history. The first English people were fishermen there, and they named the place Greenwich, meaning “green village”. Later the English kings and queens lived at Greenwich in their beautiful palaces.
The name of the earliest palace was Placentia. Its windows were made of glass—the first in England. Henry VIII lived there. He knew that England must be strong at sea. So he started two big ship yards (船坞) at Greenwich, and for 350 years the ships which were made there were the best in the world.
But trouble was coming to Greenwich. In 1649, a war started in England and for eleven years there was no king. The men who had worked for him at Placentia decided to live in the palace themselves. They sold all its beautiful things, and bought small pieces of the palace garden with money. Finally the war ended and King Charles II came back. But Placentia was falling down. So King Charles built a new and bigger palace, which is now open to the public.
At that time, Charles was worried about losing so many of its ships at sea; their sailors didn’t know how to tell exactly where they were. So in 1678, Charles made John Flamsteed, the first astronomer (天文学家) in England, try to find the answers. Flamsteed worked in a new building on the high ground in Greenwich Park. From it with a telescope which he made 15 himself, Flamsteed could watch all around the sky. And he did, night after night, for twenty years. Continuing Flamsteed’s work a hundred years later, an astronomer called Harrison finally made a clock which told the time at sea, and helped sailors to know where they were. You can see Harrison’s clock, still working, in Greenwich’s museum. Because of both men’s work, every country in the world now tells its time by Greenwich time.

My opinion on cheating in examinations
It is known that some students cheat in examinations at school. Why do some students cheat? For one thing, some of the students who cheat don’t study hard and turn to cheating in exams. And for another, they want to get higher marks than others so that they can please their parents and teachers.
In my opinion, to be students, we should know how important honesty is. Cheating in exams will not only break the school rules but also will have a very bad effect on students’ habit of studying. Those who usually cheat in exams will never treat study seriously again because they believe they can always get good marks without hard-working.
