But remember today is not the day to test out a new recipe. Playit safe and stick to Dad's taste.Dinner—If you're not the home cooking type, then nothing is better than being treated to a tasty meal at a nice restaurant surrounded by the ones you love.

The first great invention is the one that is still very important today—the wheel. This makes it easier to carry heavy things and to travel long distances.For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that as much effect as the wheel. Then in the early 1800s the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn't have to explore much any more. They began to work in order to make life better.In the second half of the 19th century, many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the light and the radio. These all play a big part in our daily life today.The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions. The helicopter in 1909, movies with sound in 1926, the computer in 1928, jet planes in 1930. It was also atime when a new material was first made—Nylon (尼龙)，which came out in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wore.The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over diseases. They worked very well. They made people healthier and allowed them to live longer. By the 1960s most people could expect to live to be at least 60.By this time most people in developed countries had a very good life. Of course new inventions continued to be made. But man now had a desire (渴望) to explore again. The Earth was known to man but stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia, United States, China and Japan have made their own steps into space.In 1969, man took his biggest step away from the Earth. Americans first walked on the Moon. This is certainly just a beginning, though. New inventions will some day allow us to do things we have never yet dreamed of.( )30. This passage talks mainly about .A. why cars were very importantB. when the light was inventedC. how inventions affect people's daily lifeD. which country made the first step into space( )31. In the 1800s, people began to work in order to make ________.A. explorationsB. their life betterC. discoveriesD. a trip to space( )32. Nylon came out of five years later than ________.A. radioB. cameraC. jet planesD. movies( )33. People can live longer lives because ________ that help cure diseases have worked very well.A. doctorsB. new waysC. medicinesD. new hospitalsCPeople in many countries are learning English. Some of them are small children. Others are teenagers. Many are adults. Some learn at school, others learn by themselves. A few people learn English by hearing the language over the radio, on TV or in films. As we know, it’s hard to learn a foreign language well. One must work hard to learn another language. Because we can’t use it often. But if you have right ways to learn English, it’s a piece of cake.Why do all these people want to learn English？It is difficult to answer this question. Many boys and girls learn English at school because it is one of their subjects required (要求) for study. They study their own language, math and English. Some people learn it because it is useful for their work. Many people learn English for their higher studies, because at colleges or universities some of their books are in English. Some people learn English because they want to read newspapers or magazines in English.根据短文内容选择正确答案。

This makes it easier to carry heavy things and to travel long distances.For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that as much effect as the wheel. Then in the early 1800s the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn't have to explore much any more. They began to work in order to make life better.In the second half of the 19th century, many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the light and the radio. These all play a big part in our daily life today.The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions. The helicopter in 1909, movies with sound in 1926, the computer in 1928, jet planes in 1930. It was also a time when a new material was first made—Nylon (尼龙)，which came out in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wore.The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over diseases. They worked very well. They made people healthier and allowed them to live longer. By the 1960s most people could expect to live to be at least 60.By this time most people in developed countries had a very good life. Of course new inventions continued to be made. But man now had a desire (渴望) to explore again. The Earth was known to man but stars were not. Man began looking for waysto go into space. Russia, United States, China and Japan have made their own steps into space.In 1969, man took his biggest step away from the Earth. Americans first walked on the Moon. This is certainly just a beginning, though. New inventions will some day allow us to do things we have never yet dreamed of.( ) 31. In the 1800s, people began to work in order to make ________.A. explorationsB. their life betterC. discoveriesD. a trip to space ( ) 32. Nylon came out of five years later than ________.A. radioB. cameraC. jet planesD. movies( ) 33. The underlined phrase "came out" means ________ in Chinese.A. 出现B. 当心C. 试验D. 算出( ) 34.
