Edison was born in 1820 .D. Bill Gates worked in Microsoft in 1955BWhen you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for word, into your own language. Take the sentence “How do you do?” as an example. If you look up each word in the dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation(翻译)？It must be a wrong sentence in your own language.Languages do not just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It’s important to master(掌握) the rules for word order in the study of English, too. If the speakers put words in a wrong order, the listener can’t understand the speaker’s sentence easily. Sometimes when the order of words in an English sentence is changed, the meaning of the sentence changes, But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the sentence doesn’t change. Let’s see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.“She only likes apples.” “Only she likes apples.”When you are learning English, you must do your best to get the spirit(精神实质) of the language and use it as the English speaker does.76. From the passage we know that when we are learning English.A. we shouldn’t put every word into our own languageB. we should look up every word in the dictionaryC. we need to put every word into our own languageD. we must read word by word77. The writer thinks it is in learning English.A. difficult to understand different soundsB. possible to remember the word orderC. important to master the rules in different waysD. easy to master the rules for word order78. We can learn from the passage that .A. the meaning of an English sentence always changes with the order of the wordsB. the order of words can never change the meaning of an English sentenceC. sometimes different order of words has a different meaningD. if the order of words is different, the meaning of a sentence must be different79. “She only likes apples.” means .A. is the same as “Only she likes apples.”B. is different from “Only she likes apples.”C. means “She likes fruit except apples.”D. means “She doesn’t like apples.”80. Which is the best title for this passage?A. different Orders, Different Meanings.B. How to Speak English?C. How to Put Euglish into Our Own Language?D. How to Learn English?CSome people believe that schools will no longer be necessary in the near future. They said that because of the Internet and other new technology, there is no longer any need for school buildings, classes or teachers. Perhaps this will be true one day, but if the world has no schools, I can’t imagine(想像) how our society will be, In fact, we should learn how to use new technology to make schools better. We should invent a new knid of school that is linked to libraries, museums, science centers, labs and even companies. Technological companies should create(创造) learning programs for schools. Scientists or professors could give talks through the Internet. TV networks and local stations could develop programs about things students are actually studying in school. Labs could set up websites to show new technology so students could see it on the Internet.Is this a dream? No. There are already many cities where this is beginning to happen. Herethe whole city is linked to the Internet, and learning can take place at home, at school, and in the office. Businesses provide programs for the schools and the society. The schools provide computer labs for people without their own computers at home. Because everyone can be on the Internet, older people use it as much as younger ones. And everyone can visit distant(远处的) libraries and museums as easily as nearby ones. How will this new kind of school change the usual way of learning? It is too early to be sure, but it is very exciting to think about it. Technology will change the way we learn; schools will change as well; and we will all learn something from the Internet.81. In the writer’s opinion, .A. more schools should be builtB. schools are necessaryC. schools are not necessaryD. there should be fewer schools82. What does “a new kind of school” mean?A. A newly built school.B. There are many new students in the school.C. There are many new teachers in the school.D. A school, which is linked to Internet.83. On the Internet, you .A. can view the new technologyB. can see everything except new technologyC. can learn everythingD. can do whatever you like84. Which of the following sentences is NOT true?A. The schools provide computer labs for those who have no personal computers.B. If you are not a student, you cannot view the new technology on the Internet.C. On the Internet, you can visit another city’s library as easily as the local people.D. Technology will change our way of learning.85. What is the best title for this passage?A. InternetB. SchoolC. New TechnologyD. will Technology Take the Place of Schools?Ⅸ.用所给词的适当形式填空.(10分)86. The boy is ______________ (terrify) of speaking in public.87.
