Through the windows he saw a truck sail over the side of the bridge and fall into the water.Brill shouted to his mother to call for an ambulance(救护车). Before she could ask why, he was running out the door.Without hesitating, he dived into the cold river and swam to the truck. He went under and tried to open the driver‟s door, but it couldn‟t move. He surfaced for air and again went under, this time he got the back door open. Water filled the truck, and it sank completely.On his third dive, Todd pulled 19-year-old Paulette Whitmer to the river bank. Todd had to shake her to get her to say if there was anyone else in the truck. Yes, her mother.Sheila Whitmer, 45, had been trying to teach her daughter to drive the truck when Paulette ran into a sign near the bridge. Instead of stopping the truck, she had panicked(惊慌), and lost control.Again Todd swam the 30 feet and began diving. He swam to the passenger-side door, which he got open after what seemed a lifetime. Todd pulled the unconscious Sheila, whose face was bloody and bruised(瘀伤), to the riverside.Both women, who were being treated at a hospital, would have died if it had not been for Brill‟s quick response.33. When Todd was talking to his mother, he saw through the windows a truck_____A. racing by the riversideB. run into a sign near the bridge.C. floating on the waterD. drop into the river34. After Paulette Whitmer was pulled out of water,_______A. she asked Todd to rescue her mother.B. she was shaking with coldC. her mother was still in the truckD. her mother said thanks to Todd.35. It seemed a long time for Todd to open the passenger-side door on his_____.A. fourth diveB. third diveC. second diveD. first dive36. What caused the accident?A. Paulette Whitmer got panicked.B. There was a sign near the bridge.C. Sheila lost control of the truck.D. The truck couldn‟t function properly.37. From the passage, we know that the rescue was _____A. hesitantB. timelyC. well-plannedD. poorly carried outPassage TwoQuestions 38 to 42 are based on the following passage.“Throw it away? There is no away,” scientists warn us so. What that means, of course, is that aswe produce more and more waste, safe places to deposit it are becoming fewer and fewer.An important change in responding to the problems of waster and its disposal(处理)in modern society is the development of the techniques for recycling materials that have been thrown away.Moreover, oil for plastics, trees for paper, and coal and oil to make heat for glass and metal production are also becoming harder to find and more expensive. One solution that can help solve problems of both supply and disposal is recycling, or using the same material more than once.Some government are requiring more recycling. Japan already recycles about 50 percent of its household trash. The German government now has a very strict law requiring that most plastics and metal be recycled. Under the new law, automobile manufacturers must buy a car be recycled-metals, plastics, glass, and so on. This law has made automobile manufacturers think more carefully about the kinds of materials that go into automobiles and how those materials are used.Recycling is a new way of looking at our use of the earth‟s resources.38. According to scientists, we will _____.A. not be able to find places for our waste.B. have fewer safe places for our waste.C. produce more waste to be recycled.D. find more safe places to place our waste.39. To solve the problems of both supply and disposal, we should _____.A. raise the prices of natural materialsB. reduce glass and metal productions.C. produce more and more materials.D. reuse the materials that have been used.40. In Germany, if your car is no longer useful, you _____.A. can send it to the government for recyclingB. must separate it into metals, plastics, glass, etc.C. can‟t buy a new car unless you recycle your old one.D. can sell it back to the automobile manufacturer.41. The purpose of the new law in Germany is _____.A. to make manufacturers use less materials.B. to force manufacturers to reuse materials.C. to urge manufacturers to produce fewer cars.D. to make manufacturers separate used cars.42. Which of the following is the main point of the passage?A. It is important for us to develop techniques for recycling materials.B. The earth‟s resources ar e becoming more and more expensive.C. Recycling is a solution to the problems of supply and disposal.D. It is necessary to make laws against throwing away used materials.Passage ThreeQuestions 43 to 47 are based on the following passage.When I was at school, our teacher told the class “You are what you eat.” My friends and I would laugh and call each other …hamburger‟ and …biscuits‟. Our teacher was trying to show us the importance of eating the right food to stay healthy.Food influences our health. W e‟ve all heard advice such as “Milk can make you sleepy. To stop feeling sleepy you should eat peanuts, “or” Garlic(大蒜) helps you not to catch a cold.” Everyone has their own advice to give, but some of these pieces of advice seem not to agree with each other.But there does seem to be proof that we are what we eat. A few decades ago there were big campaigns to make British people healthier. We threw out our chip(薯条)pan which we had used until then to make chips every day for dinner. We replaced our chips with boiled potatoes. At first I felt like my potatoes had no taste at all. But after a while I started to prefer healthier food because I felt stronger and I didn‟t get sick so often.Japanese people are known to be the healthiest in the world because of the food they eat. The healthiest Japanese people eat rice and fish and vegetables every day. They drink green tea or water when they‟re thirsty. The traditional Japanese food is famous for helping you to live a longer and healthier life.When you know the effects of different types of food, you can use your knowledge well and eat what you want to become.43. When the teacher told the students “You are what you eat,” she was_____A. trying to make them laugh with this remark.B. explaining the importance of eating healthy foodC. telling them to eat hamburgers and biscuits.D. saying that they should eat what they like.44. Which of the following is NOT true according to the second paragraph?A. People have the same advice on food.B. Everyone has advice to give on food and health.C. Milk and peanuts have some effect on sleep.D. Garlic may help people stay away from cold.45. “We threw out our chip pan” in the third paragraph probably means that____A. we stopped eating fried potato chipsB. the chip pan had become uselessC. we wanted to make the kitchen cleanD. the use of chip pan was prohibited46. Why did the author switch from potato chips to boiled potatoes?A. Potato chips were no longer availableB. She had become sick of potato chipsC. Boiled potatoes were better for her health.D. She liked the taste of boiled potatoes.47. According to the passage, the favorite foods of the Japanese people include____A. biscuits, vegetables and riceB. rice, peanuts and fishC. vegetables, fish and chipsD. fish, rice and vegetablesPassage FourQuestions 48 to 52 are based on the following passage.VMI, an international financial services company based in Spain, is holding its own first international conference later this year, and the budget is $2.000 per participant. Since this is an important event, the Marketing Department must plan it carefully. The place they choose must have: An international airport not far from the hotelOne large conference roomFour or more seminar(讨论会)roomsA choice of activities outside the main conference programNow they have four hotels to choose from.

Buses offer the added advantage of being able to see various areas of Manhattan While you ride. How Much Does the Bus Cost? Fare is $2.25 and can be paid with a MetroCard or coins (no dollar bills, no pennies).A free transfer to another bus or the subway within 2 hours is available if you paid with a MetroCard. If you pay cash you can ask for a transfer, but it is only good for transferring to another bus (not to the subway) within 2 hours.Getting On and Off the Bus You must wait for buses at designated (指定的) bus stops. As you see the bus approaching your stops, you can put your arm out to indicate to the driver that you want to board the bus.Enter the bus through the front doors and pay your fare. Take a seat or move toward the back of the bus to make room for other people boarding the bus. To request a stop: Pull the cord or press the black band near the windows.

Consumers buy furniture pieces only occasionally. However, there are several furniture promotion ideas that can be used to help you reach your target market.One thing you can do is to talk with real estate (房地产) agents to allow you to display your furniture in a new home or open house setting. This is a good way to reach a key target market – new home buyers – who may need new furniture for their future homes. Increasing foot traffic (顾客流量) is also important for a furniture store. To get more people to the store, you can advertise a raffle event (抽奖活动). This event can be promoted in your local media and through direct mail campaigns or front door advertisements to generate more interest.In tough economic times, small business owners often suffer most as a result of slow consumer spending. To fight back against this, you have to make it easier of your customers to buy furniture. If you can, offer in-store financing, or drop the interest rate on your company’s credit terms, Con sider lowering your prices and holding two-for-one events to arouse more consumer interest.41.

To keep the Sun out of our eyes, we wear black sleep masks.It is surprisingly easy to get comfortable and fall asleep in space.

When it’s time to sleep, I take my bag, my sleep mask and my tape player with earphones and float (漂浮) up to the flight deck (驾驶舱).

Before I pull the mask down over my eyes, I relax for a while, listening to music and watching the Earth go by under me.36.

During the day, when we are working, we leave the bags tied to the wall, out of the way. At bedtime we untie them and take them wherever we’ve chosen to sleep.On most spacecraft flights everyone sleeps at the same time. No one has to stay awake to watch over the spacecraft; the craft’s computers call us on the radio.On the spacecraft, sleep-time doesn’t mean nighttime. During each ninety-minute orbit (轨道) the Sun “rises”and shines through our windows for about fifty minutes, then it “sets”as the spacecraft takes us around the dark side of the Earth. To keep the Sun out of our eyes, we wear black sleep masks.It is surprisingly easy to get comfortable and fall asleep in space. Every astronaut (宇航员) sleeps differently: some sleep upside down, some sideways, and some right side up. When it’s time to sleep, I take my bag, my sleep mask and my tape player with earphones and float (漂浮)up to the flight deck (驾驶舱). Then I get into the bag, and float in a sitting position just above a seat, right next to a window. Before I pull the mask down over my eyes, I relax for a while, listening to music and watching the Earth go by under me.36.
