decided to take a bus.Not knowing the routes,I figured I'd just head east.A bus pulled up,and I asked the driver how far she was g oing.“Four more lights,”she said.There was another bus I could take from there.This clearly was going to be a long night.She dropped me off at the end of her route and told me which bus to look for.After waiting 30 minutes,I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home.Then a bus pulled up.There was no lighted number above its windshield(挡风玻璃).It was out of service.But the door opened,and I was surprised to find that it was the same driver.“I just can't leave you here,” she said.“This isn't the ni cest place.I'll give you a ride home.”“You'll drive me home in the bus?”I asked,puzzled.“No,I'll take you in my car,”she said.“It's a long way,”I protested.“Come on,”she said.“I have nothing else to do.”As we drove from the station in her car,she began telling me a story.A few days earlier,her brother had run out of gas.A good Samaritan picked him up,took him to a service station and then back to his car.“I'm just passing the favor along,”she said.When I offered her money as a thankyou,she wouldn't h ear of it.“That wouldn't make it a favor,”she said.“Just do something nice for somebody.Pass it along.”36.Why did the writer say that he would have a long night?A.He wondered how long he had to wait for the next bus.B.No driver would give him a ride.C.He didn't know the routes.D.He perhaps would have to take a taxi.37.Why did the writer change his mind after waiting for 30 minutes at the end of the route?A.No bus would come at the time.B.A taxi ride would be more comfortable.C.He became impatient and a bit worried.D.He knew the driver would never return.38.The bus driver drove the writer home later because ________.A.she happened to go in the same directionB.she wanted to do something good for other peopleC.her brother told her to do soD.she wanted to earn more money39.The bus driver hoped that the writer ________.A.would do as she didB.would keep her in memoryC.would give the money to othersD.would do her a favorBAudrey Hepburn won an Academy Award as Best Actress for her first major American movie,Roman Holiday,which was released(发行)in 1953.But she is remembered as much for her_aid_work as for her acting.Born in Belgium in 1929,Audrey's father was British and her mother was Dutch.Audrey was sent to live at a British school for part of her childhood.During World War Ⅱ,she lived and studied in the Netherlands.Her mother thought it would be safe from German attacks.Audrey studied dance as a teenager and during college when she returned to London after the war.But she realised she wasn't going to be a ballerina(芭蕾舞女演员).So she began taking acting parts in stage ter she began to get small parts in movies.But it was Audrey Hepburn's move to America that brought her true fame.In 1951 she played the character“Gigi”in the Broadway play o f the same name to great critical(关键的,重要的)praise.Two years later,Roman Holiday made her a star at the age of 24.Audrey made more than 25 movies.Among her most popular roles was Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffany's in 1961.Three years later she played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.She was married two times and had one son by each husband.In 1989,the UN Children's Fund named Audrey a goodwill ambassador(亲善大使,特使).She travelled all over the world in support of UNICEF projects.The UN agency said she was a tireless worker.She often gave 15 interviews a day to gain money and support for UNICEF projects.Audrey Hepburn often said her loyalty to UNICEF was the result of her experiences as a child during World War Ⅱ.She said she knew what it was like to be starving and to be saved by international aid.She was a goodwill ambassador until her death in 1993 from colon cancer(结肠癌).40.In Paragraph 1,“her aid work”means________.A.winning an Academy Award as Best ActressB.taking acting parts in stage showsC.making moviesD.acting as a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF41.The reason why Audrey lived and studied in the Netherlands was that________.A.she wanted to be a ballerinaB.her parents were from BritainC.the education there was excellentD.it was safe there42.We can infer from the passage that ________.A.Audrey's parents lived in Germany during World War ⅡB.Audrey lived in America in the 1950sC.Audrey was made to give up dancingD.the character“Gigi”in the Broadway play was her most popular role43.________is NOT mentioned in the passage about Audrey Hepburn.A.Marriage B.IdentityC.Contribution D.ReligionCBullies(欺凌弱小者)often bully students who are lonely.They do it over and over,but the students usually don't tell anybody they are being bullied because they are afraid of the bullies.These students don't know how to stop the bullies and are very unhappy.Some don't see a solution and don't want to be bullied any more,so they decide to commit suicide(自杀).On the Internet,there are many stories about bullying victims who killed themselves.Here are three we read about online.A 14yearold girl in Canada was bullied all the time by three girls in her class.The girls even called her on the telephone to bully her.She was afraid to stand_up_to them and never told anyone about the situation.She was miserable and didn't want to be bullied again,so she killed herself.A 14yearold boy in Canada was also bullied a lot.He was miserable,but he did not talk to anyone either.Finally,he wrote a note to his parents.He told them that he was scared of the bullies and didn't know what to do.Then he jumped off a bridge.In England,a 13yearold girl was bullied because she was very tall.She was scared of the bullies,but she also never told anybody what the bullies was doing.She was so unhappy that she committed suicide.These young students were lonely and unhappy.They did not know how to stop the bullies,so they killed themselves.We need to notice when students are victims(受害者)and desperate.Then we can help them before they decide to commit suicide.44.The reason why victims keep silent about bullying is that________.A.they don't want to take that seriouslyB.they are too shy to say that to othersC.bullies may have ordered them not to tell others about thatD.they want to solve the problems by themselves45.The underlined phrase“stand up to”in Paragraph 4 refers to________.A.face bravely B.beatC.bully D.met46.What should those who are bullied do in order to stop being bullied again?A.They should have the bullies beaten by others.B.They should try their best to fight against them.C.They should tell others about the matter and ask them for help.D.They should try to avoid meeting them again.DWhen you are deciding which wheels are right for you,there are quite a few choices.Here are some tips that may be helpful in choosing a wheel.Steel wheels—offered mostly for offroad or as a low cost alternative to aluminum(铝).Steel wheels can be improved by making small changes with a spray can or brush if the need ever arises.A chromed steel wheel is likely to rust and is likely to need repair,especially in areas that use salt on the roads in the winter.They are heavier than aluminum wheels,thus,add some additional stress to suspension and braking(刹车)parts.Another downfall of steel wheels is that they are handbuilt wheels and have lower ability of bearing in regard to run in,sometimes causing shaking problems on the street.ALWAYS dry your wheels off after going through a car wash.The chemicals used in car washes these days can leave dirty spots that are difficult,if not impossible,to get rid of.ALWAYS wash the road salt off your wheels as soon as possible.Salt can eat into the last part of a wheel and leave pits and stains that cannot be fixed.ALWAYS check the directions on a cleaner before you use it on your wheels or tyres.Some tyre cleaners will forever discolour wheels and some wheel cleaners contain acids that will eat certain types of wheels.47.The passage mainly tells us about________.A.how to repair and fix wheelsB.how to buy and wash wheelsC.how to introduce and use wheelsD.how to choose and protect wheels48.If you are a driver,you should better buy________.A.steel wheels B.aluminum wheelsC.iron wheels D.plastic wheels49.If a driver has bought steel wheels,________.A.braking parts of the wheel are not quickB.the wheels must leave a lot of dirty marksC.sometimes the wheels will cause shaking on roadsD.he can save a lot of money in repairing his car50.According to the passage,a driver should________.A.pay special attention to his car's wheelsB.make less use of salt to protect and repair his car's wheelsC.let acids eat certain types of wheelsD.often wash his car and keep it away from dangerⅣ.阅读填句(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)Dear Boris,51After I had spent a week with my English family, I slowly began to understand their English a little better. 52 Students in my group are from different cities of Britain and their dialects are different too! Some of their accents are quite strong and they also have their own words and expressions.53 Before I came to England I had thought that fish and chips were eaten every day.That's quite wrong! I get rather annoyed now when I hear all the foolish words about typical English food.I had expected to see “London fog”. Do you remember our texts about it? Wehad no idea that most of this “thick fog” disappeared many years ago when people stopped using coal in their homes. But the idea to speak about weather was very helpful. 54 On the other hand, habits are different. People tell me what is typical British here in London is not always typical in Wales or Scotland. 55 But what is ordinary for all British is that they follow traditions(传统). Probably Britain has more living signs of its past than many other countries. And people have always been proud of having ancient(古老的) buildings in capitals, big cities and the countryside.I will tell you more about Britain in my other letters.Love from Britain.A.The weather in London is really changeable.B.I have difficulty in understanding my classmates.C.Thanks for your nice letter.D.The family I live with are friendly.E.It's very different from what I learned at school.F.Local habits and traditions are not the same as what we knew.G.But it's not the language that's different and surprising.Ⅴ.短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)As winter holiday are coming soon, my classmates are trying very hard to get train tickets to go to home. After make up my mind, I decided to stay in Shanghai where my university is. This is the first time that I spent the Festival away from home. My parents agreed to visit me, but I will have a different festival. When they came here, I will show them around my university and the city just as well. I have decided to buy them some nice gift. It will be the big surprise for them. Our parents have done a lot for me, and I think it is high time that I did something specially to express my thanks.Ⅵ.书面表达(满分25分)你所在的班在英语课上讨论“What are the advantages and disadvantages of public transportation?”。

Unit 9 Wheels第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力(略)第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)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。
ANowadays,people in China are increasingly interested in celebrating foreign festivals,especially those western festivals.A survey conducted recently by showed that among the 18,222 people surveyed 63.90% said celebrating Christmas is just another way of enjoying life,nothing serious while 17.85% surveyed considered the festival as a fashion act,showing they were not “out”.These two parts clearly express the general opinion of the young.10.45% people involved said the celebration of a religious western festival with so much enthusiasm is absolutely unbelievable admire of foreign goodness.Only 7.80% of people consider Christmas as a kind of festival colonization(殖民).The arising of celebrating foreign festivals clearly has something to do with the advancement of China’s economy.In my point of view,Christmas and other festivals celebrated in China have difference from the origin.They have lost their religious background and turned into a big occasion to have fun and enjoy life.Shop owners’ pockets are filled,the public’s hunger for happiness is filled,and that is enough.Foreign festivals in China are more like carnivals giving people pleasure and enjoyment.The crisis of traditional Chinese festivals that are losing their attraction may be linked to the culture tradition and background of the festivals.Most Chinese festival culture is related more or less to real life.“The country is based on it s people while the people are relied on their food.”But the western culture shows much of romance.Some festivals have their religious background while others have much to do with culture and people.At this point,food seems to be too ordinary.Flowers and chocolates are more welcomed.Foreign festivals in China are celebrated for fun.They give people opportunities to relax and celebrate,to show appreciation and gratefulness.The acceptance of foreign festivals generally depends on the openness of the public,the familiaritywith the western culture,and most importantly,on people’s economic situation. 21.From the survey we know that among the people surveyed .A.many people are worried that traditional Chinese festivals will disappear soon B.most think little of celebrating foreign festivalsC.half think celebrating foreign festivals makes people not go out of fashion D.some think it a sign of being after foreign goodness to celebrate foreign festivals 答案 D解析细节理解题。

Unit 9 Wheels李仕才一、If you have a chance to go to Finland,you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.Take the taxi drivers for example.Taxis in Finland are mostly highclass Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer.You can go anywhere in one,tell the driver to drop you at any place,say that you have some business to attend to,and then walk off without paying your fare.The driver would not show the least signs of anxiety.The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests,but also serve outside diners.Hotel guests have their meals free,so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals.The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration cards to the waiter.With such a loose check,you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour.They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss at the rate.From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.With so many loopholes(漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty_advantages”.But the strange thing is that all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fares after they have attended to their business and that not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms.And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in.As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do,living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.1.The underlined words in Paragraph 5 means to “________”.A.be ready to help othersB.make good use of one's friendsC.be a little ahead of othersD.gain something at other's expense2.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.While taking a taxi in Finland,you can get off without first paying your fare.B.In a big hotel in Finland, you can enjoy free meals if you're living in the hotel.C.The bosses in Finland pay the employees according to the registration of their working hours.D.The workers are always honest with their working hours.3.We can learn from the passage that ________.A.the Finnish society is of very high moral(道德的)levelB.there are many loopholes in everyday life in FinlandC.in Finland,most taxi drivers will not charge you anythingD.everyone in Finland is like a gentleman,for they have faith in themselves 4.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A.Life in FinlandB.A Society with “Foolish” PeopleC.What a LifeD.Honest accounts of the Finns【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,主要通过一些例子,介绍了芬兰人的诚实,并且诚实让他们成为真正的“绅士”。

]BIt has been 24 years,and John Moore still looks out of his passenger window as the train he travels by every day runs over the Moodna Viaduct in Cornwall,New York.For more than twenty years,the 60yearold businessman has been traveling about 67 miles to work from his home in Cornwall to lower Manhattan.His total travel time is 5 hours each day.It may seem like a lengthy journey, but Moore says he prefers this mode of travel.“Compared to a bus or a car,it's much more spacious and comfortable,”he says.As soon as Moore boards(上车),he can start work,or socialise with the friends he's made on the train over the years, or spend a few hours reading a novel.For Moore,traveling by train allows him and his wife to live in a more peaceful environment that is far away from the fastpaced city lifestyle.“We moved to Cornwall specifically because I could take a train to work.It allowed us to live more than 50 miles outside the city and still travel comfortably to work every day,”he says.Moore is not the only one enjoying passenger rail.There has been a great rise in rail travel from 2000 to 2015,according to Matt Hardison,a spokesman for Amtrak,the national rail operator.“The longstanding sayings from the 1980s that passenger rail is dying have changed,”he says.“People are turning t o rail for intercity travel.”Although a growing number of people are traveling daily by train like Moore did,there are also those who prefer to ride trains to see more of the landscape(风景)and to relax.Jack Donachy,58,says he and his wife are among those people.“There are no seat belts(安全带)and you can go to the dining car for something to eat,or simply look out the window and think freely,”he says.【语篇解读】本文是一则新闻报道。
