Every year thousands of tourists visit Pompeii, Italy. They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for－its stadium（运动场）and theatres, its shops and restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeii’s people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for almost years.

For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii. Slowly, carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city looked almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains, houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20,000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all, there were everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii. Many

glasses and jars had some dark blue colour in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine. They liked bread, too; metal bread pans were in every bakery. In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread- a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny powder tell us that women liked to wear eye-makeup.

Ginseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw the tourists to Pompeii.

51．Why do large numbers of people come to Pompeii each year?

A．To visit the volcano B．To shop and eat there.

C．To watch sports and plays D．To see how Pompeiians lived.

52．Why had so many Pompeiians remained by volcanic Mount Vesuvius?

A．The city nearby offered ll kinds of fun.

B．The area produced the finest wine in Italy.

C．Few people expected the volcano to erupt again.

D．The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass.

53．Why did the city uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79?

A．Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully.

B．Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched.

C．Because scientists successfully rebuilt the city with everyday objects.

D．Because nobody had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted.

54．What do we know about the Pompeiians who lived 2,000 years ago?

A．They lived more or less the same as Italians now do.

B．They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup.

C．They enjoyed a lazy life with drinking and eating.

D．They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in A. D. 79.

In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.

It was like a race, but one could never finish this race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.

Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbours. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short

stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “J ones” is a very common name in the United States. ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’ came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the county for over 28 years.

People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.

My father was Chief Engineer of a merchant (商人) ship, which was sunk in World WarⅡ. The book Night of the U-boats told the story.

Memories

In September, 1940, my mother, sister and I went to Swansea, where my father's ship was getting ready to sail. We brought him a family photograph to be kept with him at all times and keep him safe.

Then I remember my mother lying face down, sobbing. She had heard from a friend that the ship had been sunk by a torpedo (鱼雷).

I can remember the arrival of the telegram (电报), which in those days always brought bad news. My grandmother opened it. It read, “Safe. Love Ted.”

My most vivid memory is being woken and brought down to sit on my father's knee, his arm in a bandage.

He was judged unfit to return to sea and took a shore job in Glasgow for the rest of the war. For as long as I can remember, he had a weak heart. Mother said it was caused by the torpedoes. He said it was because of the cigarettes. Whichever, he died suddenly in his early 50s.

Ten years later I read Night of the U-boats and was able to complete the story.

Torpedo

One torpedo struck the ship. Father was in the engine room, where the third engineer was killed. He shut down the engines to slow the ship making it easier for it to be abandoned.

By the time he got on deck(甲板) he was alone. Every lifeboat was gone except one which had stuck fast. When he tried to cut it free, it swung against the ship, injuring his hand and arm. He had no choice but to jump—still with the photograph in his pocket.

Three days later, he and other survivors were safe in Glasgow. All 23 with him signed the back of the photograph.

A Toast

In my room is the book and the photograph. Often, glass in hand, I have wondered how I would have dealt with an explosion, a sinking ship, a jump into a vast ocean and a wait for rescue? Lest(以免)we forget, I have some more whisky and toast the heroes of the war.

63. What did the author learn about the father from the telegram?

A. He was still alive

B. His knee was broken

C. His ship had been sunk

D. He had arrived in Glasgow.

64. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refers to the father’s________.

A. weak heart

B. taking a shore job

C. failure to return to sea

D. injury caused by a torpedo

65. What can we know about the author’s father after his ship was attacked?

A. He lost his arm.

B. He repaired the engines.

C. He managed to take a lifeboat.

D. He was the last to leave the ship.

66. What is the passage mainly about?

A. A group of forgotten heroes

B. A book describing a terrifying

C. A ship engineer’s wartime experience

D. A merchant’s memories of a sea rescue

E

We are so used to having a cup of tea before heading off to work, during work or after getting back from work. Tea breaks are more like a custom that takes place regularly several times a day. This tea break tradition has been happening during the past 200 years or so. Tea just happens to be a wonderful drink for most of us. The day simply feels incomplete without a hot cup of tea. However, is tea good for you?

In , the papers were flooded with the news of research showing that drinking 2-3 cups of tea a day is as beneficial as drinking water, with even some additional health benefits. Another report published in November , stated that drinking up to eight cups of tea a day is good for you. The research conducted by nutrition expert Dr. Carrie Ruxton, debunked the popular stories about caffeinated(含咖啡因的)drinks like tea, coffee and cocoa. According to Dr. Ruxton, the caffeine present in tea tends to lower the risk of heart attacks and strokes. She says that drinking 8 cups of tea a day gives the drinkers “the best levels of health-gi ving substances” present in tea and other caffeinated drinks.

Contrary to popular belief that tea does not contain more caffeine than coffee, it actually contains almost half the amount. Caffeine is a natural thing found in many types of food and drink. It’s also something that can give you a much needed lift for a demanding and tiring afternoon ahead. Research shows that proper amounts of caffeine are safe for most people.

So why not take full advantage of your tea breaks at work, or make time for afternoon tea while out shopping at the weekend? And remember that tea is not just a great drink, but it helps to keep you looking and feeling healthy.

67. Reports in the newspapers show that ______.

A. drinking tea is a healthy habit

B. new ways of drinking tea appear

C. drinking tea is harmful to health

D. people don’t like to drink tea any more

68. According to Dr. Carrie Ruxton, .

A. over 5 cups of tea a day damage your health

B. drinking tea may cause some kinds of diseases

C. tea shouldn’t be drunk together with coffee or cocoa

D. drinking tea helps prevent heart diseases

69. Caffeine in tea ____.

A. can make you energetic

B. gives you a good rest

C. may cause heart attacks

D. is more than that in coffee

70. What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Tea and Disease

B. Tea—a Healthy Drink

C. Tea, Coffee and Cocoa

D. Drink Tea or Coffee
