The second annual National Technology Scan conducted by Park found that the main reason why potential customers say they do not subscribe to the Internet is because of the low value to their daily lives rather than concerns over cost.Forty-four percent of these families say they are not interested in anything on the Internet, versus just 22 percent who say they cannot afford a computer or the cost of Internet service, the survey showed. The answer “I’m not sure how to use the Internet” came from 17 percent of participan ts who do not subscribe. The response “I do all my e-commerce shopping andYouTube-watching at work” was cited by 14 percent of Internet-access users. Three percent said the Internet doesn’t reach their homes.The study found U.S. broadband adoption grew to 52 percent over 2006, up from 42 percent in 2005. Roughly half of new subscribers converted（转变）from slower-speed, dial-up Internet access while the other half of families had no prior access.“The industry continues to chip（击破）away at the core of non-subscribers, but has a long way to go,” said John Barrett, director of research at Parks Associates. “Entertainment applications will be the key. If anything will pull in the holdouts, it’s going to be applications that make the Internet more similar to pay-TV,” he predicted.41. What does the underlined word “holdouts” in the first paragraph most pr obably mean?A. some American familiesB. those who hold out one’s opinionsC. those who have been surveyedD. those who still haven’t access to the Internet currently42. Many potential customers refuse to subscribe to the Internet mainly because _________.A. they show too much concern about the costB. they can find little value of itC. they do most YouTube-watching at workD. the Internet doesn’t reach their homes43. From the passage we can infer that ________.A. It is not an easy job to transform those holdouts into the Internet usersB. people will adopt dial-up Internet access no moreC. many Americans enjoy doing e-commerce shopping at homeD. more than half of the population are using the Internet in 200544. According to John Barrett, what is the key to attracting more U.S. families to broadbandservice?A. making the Internet look more similar to TV setB. applying the Internet more to entertainmentC. providing more pay-TV programsD. chipping away at the core of non-subscribers45. Which is the best title for the passage?A. Web develops with technologyB. The present situation of webC. Many Americans see little point to webD. It is urgent to promote web serviceBAgainst the supposition than forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia warm the climate, scientists have discovered that cooling may occur in areas where burnt trees allow more snow to mirror more sunlight into space.This finding suggests that taking steps to prevent northern forest to limit the release of greenhouse gases may warm the climate in northern regions. Usually large fires destroyed forests in these areas over the past decade. Scientists predict that with climate warming, fires may occur more frequently over next several centuries as result of a longer fire season. Sunlight taken in by the earth tends to cause warming, while heat mirrored back into space tends to cause cooling.This is the first study to analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climate. Earlier studies by other scientists have suggested that fire in northern regions speed up climate warming because greenhouse gases from burning trees and plants are released into the atmosphere and thus trap heat.Scientists found that right after the fire, large amounts of greenhouse gases entered the atmosphere and caused warming. Ozone（臭氧）levels increased, and ash from the fire fell on far-off sea ice, darkening the surface and causing more radiation from the sun to be taken in. The following spring, however, the land within the area of the fire was brighter than before the fire, because fewer trees covered the ground. Snow on the ground mirrored more sunlight back into space, leading to cooling.“We need to find out all possible ways to reduce the growth of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.” Scientists tracked the change in amount of radiation entering and leaving the climate system as a result of the fire, and found a measurement closely related to the global air temperature. Typically, fire in northern regions occurs in the same area every 80 to 150 years. Scientists, however, found that when fire occurs more frequently, more radiation is lost from the earth and cooling results. Specifically, they determined when fire returns 20 years earlier than predicated, 0.5 watts per square meter of area burned are soaked up by the earth from greenhouse gases, but 0.9 watts per square meter will be sent back into space. The net effect is cooling. Watts are used to measure the rate at which energy is gained or lost from the earth.46. According to the new findings, taking steps to prevent northern forest fires may _______.A. result in a warming climateB. cause the forest fires to occur more frequentlyC. lead to a longer fire seasonD. protect the forests and the environment there47. The following are all the immediate effects after a forest fire EXCEPT _________.A. large amounts of greenhouse gases enter the atmosphereB. the levels of ozone which is a type of oxygen increaseC. snow on the ground mirrors more sunlight back into spaceD. ashes from the fire fall on the ice surface and take in more radiation from the sun48. Earlier studies about northern forest fires _________.A. analyze all aspects of how northern fires influence climateB. indicate that forest fires will pollute the atmosphereC. suggest that people should take measures to protect environmentD. suggest that the fires will speed up climate warming49. The underlined phrase “soak up” in the last paragraph most probably means ________.A. releasedB. absorbedC. createdD. distributed50. From the passage we can draw a conclusion that forest fires in Alaska, Canada and Siberia may__________.A. warm the climate as the supposition goesB. allow more snow to reflect more sunlight into space and thus cool the climateC. destroy large areas of forests and pollute the far-off sea iceD. help to gain more energy rather than release more energyCKincaid looked at his watch: eight-seventeen. The truck started on the second try, and he backed out, shifted gears, and moved slowly down the alley under hazy sun. Through the streets of Bellingham he went, heading south on Washington 11, running along the coast of Puget Sound for a few miles, then following the highway as it swung east a little before meeting U.S Route 20.Turning into the sun, he began the long, winding drive through the Cascades. He liked this country and felt unpressed stopping now and then to make notes about interesting possibilities for future expeditions or to shoot what he called “memory snapshots.” The p urpose of these causal photographs was to remind him of places he might want to visit again and approach more seriously. In later afternoon he turned north at Spokane, picking up U.S. Route 2, which would take him halfway across the northern United States to Duluth, Minnesota.He wished for the thousandth time in his life that he had a dog ,a golden retriever, maybe ,for travels like this and to keep him company at home. But he was frequently away; overseas much of the time and it would not be fair to the animal .Still ,he thought about it anyway. In a few years he would be getting too old for the hard fieldwork. “I must get a dog then.” He said to himself.Drives like this always put him into a sentimental mood. The dog was part of it .Robert Kincaid was alone as it’s possible to be—an only child ,parents both dead , distant relatives who had lost track of him and he of them, no close friends.He thought about Marian .She had left him nine years ago after five years of marriage. He was fifty-two now , that would make her just under forty .Marian had dreams of becoming a musician ,a folksinger .She knew all of the Weavers’ songs and sang them pretty well in the coffeehouse of Seattle .When he was home in the old days, he drove her to the shows and sat in the audience whileshe sang.His long absences—two or three months sometimes—were hard on the marriage .He knew that. She was aware of what he did when they decided to get married ,and both of them had a vague(not clear) sense that it could all be handled somehow. It couldn’t when he came from photographing a story in Iceland and ,she was gone . The note read, “Robert ,it didn’t work out ,I left you the Harmony guitar. Stay in touch.”He didn’t stay in touch .Neither did she .He3 signed the divorce papers when they arrived a year later and caught a plane for Australia the next day. She had asked for nothing except her freedom.51. Which route is the right one taken by Kincaid?A. Bellingham—Washington 11—Puget Sound—U.S Route 20—U.S Route 2—DuluthB. U.S. Route 2—Bellingham—Washington 11—Puget Sound—U.S Route 20—DuluthC. U.S. Route 2—U.S Route 20—Duluth –Bellingham—Washington 11D. Bellingham—Washington 11—U.S. Route 2—U.S Route 20—Duluth52. Which statement is true according to the passage?A. Kinc aid’s parents were dead and he only kept in touch with some distant relatives.B. Kincaid would have had a dog if he hadn’t been away from home too much.C. Kincaid used to have a golden retriever.D. Kincaid needed a dog in doing his hard fieldwork.53. Why did Kincaid stop to take photos while driving?A. To write “memory snapshots”B. To remind himself of places he might want to visit again.C. To avoid forgetting the way back.D. To shoot beautiful scenery along the road.54. What can you know about Marian?A. She died after five years of marriage.B. She was older than Kincaid.C. She could sing very well and earned big money.D. She was not a professional pop singer.55. We can draw a conclusion from the passage that .A. Marian knew what would happen before she married Kincaid.B. Kincaid thought his absence would be a problem when he married Marian.C. It turned out that Marian could not stand Kincaid’s absence and left him.D. After Marian left him, they still kept in touch with each other.参考答案完形填空本文讲述的是该怎样做才能成为对世界有影响之人。

Diaz is a “cable racer”, and every morning he faces the difficult task of taking the local teacher to her school. To do this, he first walks for an hour up to a place the locals call Los Pinos, right at the edge of the 400-foot deep gorge (峡谷) of the Negro valley. Here, one end of a thick metal cable has been fixed to a wooden post. The cable stretches right across the deep valley to the other side, a kilometer away.A metal hook is fixed to the cable, with leather straps hanging from it. Diaz fastens the straps around his shoulders and waist, does a quick safety check and then, without hesitating, throws himself off the edge of the mountain. Attached to the cable by only the metal hook, he rapidly picks up speed and soon he is racing through the air. Crossing the valley by wire takes him 30 seconds, instead of the two hours it would take him to walk down through the rain forest and climb up the steep muddy slopes on the other side.As Diaz begins his trip, Diana Rios, a 23-year-old elementary teacher, is waiting on the other side of the gorge for the moment when he will come racing through the mist towards her at 100 mph. She will then return with him, hanging on to him as he goes back along the cable. Diana had no idea when she took the teaching job that just getting to work in the village school would be dangerous. "At first I wanted to cry," she says, clutching her hook as the metal cable starts to rattle (喀哒作响) violently at Diaz’s approach. “But I soon got used to it.” She still prefers to go with Diaz, though, rather than making the frightening and dangerous crossing on her own.For the inhabitants(居民) of Los Pinos, the wire cable is a lifeline. For more than 50 years, it has served the community as a form of transport to and from the rest of the world. Everything that comes arrives via the cable----bricks and wood for building, sacks of rice and corn. Pregnantmothers, who must get to the nearest clinic, cross the wire during the darkness of the night, returning with their newborn babies. It is dangerous, but they have no choice.This time Robinson Diaz makes a perfect landing on Diana’s side of the gorge. For him, the dangers of this daily journey are insignificant. “What I’m really scared of is snakes,” he says. “This is nothing in comparison.” Then Dianna straps herself into her harness and hooks herself up to the wire behind Diaz, holding on to him tightly. He turns, flashes her a smile, releases the brake and kicks away. Within seconds, teacher and cable-racer have disappeared back into the mist.41.Robinson Diaz has a difficult task every morning because he has to________.A. climb a long way up a mountainB. get to the edge of a valleyC. walk through a dangerous areaD. help someone get to work42.In the second paragraph, the writer suggests that Diaz is________.A. confident about what he is doingB. unaware of the danger he facesC. careless about his own safetyD. uncertain of what he is doing43.Diana Rios found out how she would travel to work________.A. when she was a studentB. when she saw the cableC. after she had met DiazD. after she took the job44.What is Diana's opinion about the journey now?A. She enjoys it.B. She no longer finds it a problem.C. It makes her feel very frightened.D. It would be impossible without Diaz.45.What does Diaz say about using the cable?A. He does not find it as frightening as other things.B. He does not think there is any risk.C. He is happy that he can help the teacher.D. He is worried about the danger of snakesBHumor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected ,means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying “no,” criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face .For some jobs, it’s the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialogue may start a quarrel. For example, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people in any other forum.Humor is often the best way to keep a small misunderstanding from escalating into a bigdeal .Recently a neighbor of mine had a squabble with his wife as she drove him to theairport .Airborne, he felt miserable, and he knew she did, too. Two hours after she returned home, she received a long-distance phone call.“person-to-person for Mrs. I .A .Pologize,”intoned the operato r. “That’s spelled‘P’as in….” .In a twinkling, the whole day changed from grim to lovely at both ends of the wire.An English hostess with a quick wit was giving a formal dinner for eight distinguished guests whom she hoped to enlist in a major charity drive. Austerity(节俭) was a fashion in England at the time, and she had asked her children to serve the meal. She knew that anything could happen----and it did, just as her son, with the studied concentration of a tightrope walker ,brought in a large roast turkey. He successfully elbowed the swinging dining-room door, but the backswing threw the bird onto the dining-room floor.The boy stood rooted: guests stared at their plates .Moving only her head the hostess smiled ather son, “No harm, Daniel ,” she said.“Just pick him up and take him back to the kitchen”… she enunciated clearly so he would think about what she was saying … “and bring in the other one .”A wink and a one-liner instantly changed the dinner from a red-faced embarrassment to a conspiracy of fun.46.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Humor is the key to success in our work and our lives.B. Humor enables us to cope with difficult situation effectively.C. Humor is the only best way to criticize someone without losing his face.D. Humor makes fun of any difficult situations.47.Which of the following is NOT stated in the passage?A. Comedians on TV are believed to have done a lot in making people more tolerant of racialand religious differences.B. To make up differences, humor is a most acceptable as well as a most effective means.C. People often turn to humorous ways when meeting with difficult situations because of itseffectiveness.D. Only by adopting the means of humor can one succeed in some jobs.48.What caused the roast turkey to drop onto the floor?A. The backward movement of the door.B. The son’s hasty behavior.C. Someone happened to be at the door.D. The bird raised by the family.49.By saying“… and bring in the other one,” the hostess meant that_______.A. the son had to cook another turkey for the guestsB. she already had made more than one turkey ready for the dinner.C. some other dish would be served instead of a turkeyD. the son could serve the same turkey after it was cleaned50.What do you think would probably be the result if the hostess got angry and scolded the son?A. It would make the embarrassing situation worseB. The son would refuse to serve the guests any moreC. The son would talk back and make the mother all the more angryD. The guests would leave before the dinner was overCNot long ago, we argued in this space that because America has some of the best tap water available, it is time to start thinking twice about drinking commercially bottled water. One big reason is that a lot of petroleum is required to manufacture and transport the plastic bottles, thus adding to global warming and other environmental problems. Of course, in certain circumstances bottled water is necessary. It is essential during emergencies —think Katrina — and it is certainly a better alternative when the only other drinks come loaded with calories.What the rising use of bottled water leaves us with, however, is a huge recycling problem. Of the mountain of individual plastic water bottles created by Americans each year —enough to hold more than seven billion gallons of water —less than one-fourth are sent to the recycling industry for a second round. That makes absolutely no sense for the environment or for the economy.The recycling industry sees plastic water bottles as a major commodity because they can be turned into anything from fleece jackets to a very durable set of luggage. One reason so few water bottles are recycled is thatexcept in a very few states, they cannot be redeemed at the local grocery store.But recycling rates are significantly higher in the 11 states that pay customers a nickel (and in some cases a dime) if they return their bottle. But only three of these states — California, Hawaii and Maine — include water bottles. Passing new bottle laws or expanding old laws to include plastic bottles should be an easy call for most Legislatures. But the grocery and drink industry have been able to use their clout, and campaign funds, to keep that from happening. That needs to change.There are other ways to encourage recycling. At many public places — ballgames or city parks, for example — it is often much easier to buy a bottle of water than to find a recycling bin to throw it away. And in some areas, like parts of Philadelphia, officials are experimenting with ways to pay homeowners by the pound for recycled trash, a trend definitely worth watching.Of course, for most people, the simplest recycling solution of all might be to wash a plastic bottle out and refill it with fresh water from the tap.51.What is the writer’s attitude towards bottled water?A. It is completely unnecessary.B. It will make people fat easily because it contains calories.C. Producing bottled water will worsen global warming.D. It is less tasty than tapping water.52.What is a possible cause of low recycling rates of plastic water bottles?A. Plastic water bottles have little recycling value.B. In some public places, not enough dustbins are set up to collect bottles.C. The recycling industry will cost much to recycle bottles.D. Consumers of bottled water are not willing to have their bottles recycled.53.The underlined word “redeemed” in the third Paragraph probably means ______.A. changed into an amount of moneyB. returnedC. collectedD. recycled54.We can infer from the passage that _____.A. Americans will consume more than seven billion gallons of water each yearB. consumers of bottled water in California will get some money back if they return their plastic bottles togrocery storeC. new laws have been set up to encourage plastic bottle recyclingD. government should buy recycled garbage from people55.We can conclude from the passage that the writer ______.A. encourages people to wash plastic bottles to better recycle themB. calls for all so cial class’s contribution to collecting and recycling garbageC. wants people to drink more tap water than bottled waterD. criticizes grocery and drink industry for their irresponsibility to recycle plastic bottles参考答案完形填空21－30: CDABD ABACC语法填空31 until / till 32．to 33．my 34 that / which 35．buying36．ordered 37．with 38．personal 39．a 40．but阅读理解41—45 DACBA 46-50 BCADA 51—55 CBABC部分完形填空解析为什么你小时候学的儿歌、童谣到你长大了还不会忘记？那是因为overlearn的缘故。

Dale became fearful of going anywhere alone or of being alone as some of his seizures^ 作）were quite severe, even putting him in the hospital on three separate occasions.We decided that a trained medical service dog would greatly help Dale. It would be a companion for Dale, and the dog would be trained to stay with him. If he had a seizure, with a service dog beside a downed person, others could see and will be more likely to help.A local person sold us a black Labrador puppy at a reduced price. Nevaeh was eight weeks old when we got her. At that point, we turned to the local papers for help. We hoped that getting Dale story out would help raise funds to pay for the puppy e ha s treeningn Dalability, and hisneed to have someone with him at all times means I can not work either. We don ' t have money left over at the end of the month.Fundraising started off with the help of family donations, but we had a long way to go. Then one day there was a knock at the door. I went to answer it;a stranger stood there holding the newspaper article about Dale in her hand. She introduced herself as June and told me that her daughter ' s dog had warned her of a cancer she never kn e warh, probably saving her life. Now, she felt obliged to help our dog because a dog had helped her. She shocked us when she gave us $100! We never expected such caring and kindness from a complete stranger.Dale had been feeling the world didn ' thtis^ptrehewed his faith. The next thing thathappened was that Dale emailed local vets, asking for care for our puppy. We received a response from Dr. Noonan, who has since provided Nevaeh ' s care for free. The staff and the vet are the mo； loving, caring people we have met. They even helped us find a local trainer who cut the training costs by more than half. If it weren ' t for such amazing people, Dale probably would have becom total recluse, feeling he could never go anywhere alone.41. Why did the couple think a medical service dog would be of great help?A. It could accompany Dale, and when a seizure came, it could attract people to help.B. It could accompany Dale, and in a seizure, it could save Dale.C. People are more likely to save a person if he is a dog lover.D. Dale would not be so lonely, and would get well again soon.42. What made Dale gain confidence again?A. Getting a service dog.B. A lady offered an amount of money to him.C. The vets offered to help.D. His being able to go anywhere.43. Why did the couple think the staff and the vet are the most loving, caring people they have met?A. They provided the puppy ' s care for free.B. They trained the puppy for the couple.C. They provided the puppy ' s care for free and cut the trastiby calf.D. They not only provided the puppy ' s care for free but also found a trainer with less than halfthe cost.44. What does the underlined sentence “She felt obliged to help …” mean?A. She felt it a duty to help.B. She felt she was forced to help.C. She felt willing to help.D. She felt grateful to help.45. What is the purpose of writing this passage?A. To show how important a good service dog is.B. To show a united family is important.C. To show thanks to those kind people.D. To encourage people not to give up.BForgiving someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don ' t think ofsitbeing a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colours and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That' s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression. They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.So it doesn' t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.Forgivenessdoes not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it ' s OK. Inste；a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.46. The author of the passage tries to make his viewpoint clear.A. by raising his own examples.B. based on his own experience.C. by mentioning some studies.D. by mentioning some typical patients.47. The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to.A. support the viewpoint that anger and hatred harm physical and mental health.B. introduce a famous expert.C. let the reader know the different colours of cartoon faces.D. show how to control one ' s temper.48. The underlined phrase holding 'bn to” in this passage possibly means “” .A. removing.B. keeping up.C. getting rid of.D. learning about.49. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?A. People who are able to forgive feel less stress.B. People who are able to forgive feel less depression.C. People who are able to forgive have fewer problems on sleeping.D. People who are able to forgive feel less tired.50. The best title for this passage is probably.A. Forgiveness.B. Forgiveness Is Good for Health.C. A Secret to Keeping Health.D. Anger Is Bad for Health.CIf women are mercilessly exploited俸U 肖U) year after year, they have only themselves to blame.Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, theyare always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; necklines are lowered or raised, and so on.No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability^寸用）. They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn' t at some time in his life smiled at the sight ofwoman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of wmen' s clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of instability（不稳定）？ Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.51. Designers and big stores always make money.A. by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry.B. because they are capable of predicting new fashions.C. by constantly changing the fashions in women ' s clothing.D. because they always improve quality of women ' s clothing.52. To the writer, the fact that women change their old-fashioned dresses is seen as.A. a quality of instability.B. a waste of time.C. an expression of taste.D. an expression of creativity.53. The writer would be less critical if fashion designers placed more stress on the ofclothing.A. costB. appearanceC. comfortD. suitability54. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. New fashions in clothing are created for the commercial exploitation of women.B. The constant changes in women ' s clothing reflect their strength of character.C. The fashion industry makes an important contribution to society.D. Fashion designs should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women.55. By saying “the conclusions to be drawn are obvious”，the writer means thatA. women' s changeableness in their choice of clothing is often laughed at.B. women are better able to put up with discomfort.C. men are also exploited greatly by fashion designers.D. men are more reasonable in the matter of fashion.are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores.

However bridge building experts throughout the world thought that this was a pipe dream.It was not practical. It had never been done before.But Roebling refused to listen to them. He thought about thebridge day and night and he knew deep in his heart that it couldbe done. After much discussion and persuasion he convinced hisson Washington, who was a promising engineer himself, that thebridge in fact could be built.Working together for the first time, the father and sondeveloped concepts of how it could be accomplished. With greatexcitement, they hired their crew and began to build their dream bridge.The project started well, but several months after it began, a tragic accident on the site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was so seriously injured that he was never able to walk, talk or even move again."We told them so", "Crazy men and their crazy dreams", "It's foolish to chase wild visions", the critics said and most thought the project should be scrapped since the Roeblings were the only ones who knew how the bridge cd be built. In spite of his handicap Washington still had a burning desire to complete the bridge and his mind was still as sharp as ever.Washington's wife tried to inspire and pass on her husband's enthusiasm to some of his friends, but they were too daunted by the task. As he lay in his hospital room, an idea suddenly hit him. All he could do was move one finger and he decided to make the best use of it. By moving this finger and tapping it on his wife's arm, he slowly developed a code to communicate with her. Then he used this method to tell his wife what the engineers should do. It seemed crazy but the project was under way again. For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife's arm, until the bridge was finally completed.qToday the spectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands in all its glory as a tribute to the triumph of one man's spirit and his determination not to be defeated by circumstances.41. What did most people think about Roebling's idea to build the bridge?A. It would never become a reality.B. Washington was not experienced enough.C. It would take a lot of time.D.

The bridge was completed.e. Roebling wanted to build a bridge.f. There was a tragic accident.A. e, a, c, f, d, bB. e, a, f, b, c, dC. e, f, a, b, c, dD. e, a, c, f, b, d44. What can we learn about Washington's wife?A. She knew sign language very well.B. She was devoted to her husband.C. She developed a code to communicate with her husband.D.

Even the most distant dream can be realised with a never-say-die attitude.D. The people who make a difference in our life should be remembered forever.BThey once seemed more at home on the bustling streets of Asia like Delhi, Calcutta and Bangkok but cycle powered rickshaws (人力车) can now be seen taking people across town in many European cities. Many people believe that rickshaws are a good way of experiencing a city, close-up, while also cutting down on traffic jams and pollution.In Berlin, one of the first cities to introduce this new mode of transport, more than 200 bike-taxis go along at 15km per hour, past many tourist attractions and city parks."It is completely environmentally friendly; we have new models with an engine to help the driver up the hills but they use renewable energy," said a spokesman for VELOTAXI, the leading rickshaw company which has carried a quarter of a million people this year.While the city still has 7,000 motor-taxis, rickshaw company officials say their taxis' green ethics, speed and safety make them more than just a tourist attraction. While now increasingly out of fashion in Delhi, Berlin people have eagerly accepted the new fleet since their launch in 1997."It's better than a taxi, better than a bus, better than the train," said Ulf Lehman, 36, as he leapt out of a rickshaw near the world famous Brandenburg gate. "It feels so free.""This is something out of the ordinary you feel you are on holiday in Bangkok instead of Berlin," said another traveller.In Amsterdam, driver Peter Jancso said people like to be driven around in hisbright yellow rickshaw and pretend to be a queen in a golden carriage. "I like my passengers to feel important," he said as he dropped off another passenger. Another visitor noted how cheap it was compared with a normal taxi.Although increasingly popular in Europe, it is the opposite in India, where hand-pulled rickshaws are considered inhuman and a symbol of India's backward past.Nearly 500 bike-rickshaws are running in London and are not required to pay the city's road tax but things may change as other taxi drivers complain of unfair treatment.46. Where are rickshaws becoming more popular?A. Delhi, Berlin, Paris.B. Amsterdam, Bangkok, Delhi.C. Athens, London, Berlin.D. Berlin, Amsterdam, London.47. Why are rickshaws no longer as widely used in India as in the past?A. They are a reminder of a bad period in India's history.B. They have been banned because they are too cruel.C. The streets of India are too crowded for them to move through easily.D. Indians now prefer to travel by car because they are richer.48. What does the underlined sentence "This is something out of the ordinary ... you feel you are on holiday in Bangkok instead of Berlin" (para. 7) suggest?A. The passenger didn't like taking a rickshaw as it reminded him of Bangkok.B. The passenger enjoyed being on holiday in Berlin more than in Bangkok.C. The passenger was impressed when taking a rickshaw and considered it unusual.D. The passenger disapproved of rickshaws because they were not original to Berlin.49. Which of the following is mentioned in the text?A. Rickshaws may need to pay tax for causing traffic jams.B. Rickshaws and taxis are treated differently in London.C. Rickshaws will eventually take the place of taxis.D. Rickshaws will always be a cheap means of transport.50. What is the author's attitude towards rickshaws?A. He gives no personal opinion.B. He believes they will be of no use.C. He thinks they will reduce pollution.D. He thinks they are old-fashioned.CSome of Man's closest relatives in the animal kingdom are under serious threat because of human activity, according to a recently published report.According to the document, almost one in three of all apes and monkeys - that is non-human primate species (灵长类动物) are now considered to be in danger of dying out and disappearing from our planet, if action is not taken soon.The report, which was produced for the World Conservation Union (WCU), states that 114 of the world's 394 primate species could be lost forever, and the main reason they are threatened is the continuing destruction of forests where most of these animals live. In addition, illegal wildlife trade, climate change and commercial hunting for meat are also pressuring existing primate populations.What's more, the problem is getting more serious. The number of species on the organization’s Red List - listing those primate species most threatened and in very serious danger of dying out - has increased by 3 to 25 since 2005.Russell Mittermeier, the chief researcher of the WCU report, said, "You could fit all the surviving members of these 25 species in a single football stadium. So the problem is obviously urgent."The scientists, who drew up the Red List, believe that the situation is now so bad that if action is not taken immediately, it will result in primate species becoming extinct - something which has not happened in over a century.The loss of habitat caused by the clearing of forests for wood, farmland and fuel continues to be the main reason for the declining number of primates, according to the report, and the problem was most severe in Asia.The loss of forest trees is also responsible for approximately 20 percent of all greenhouse gases - more than all the cars, trucks, trains and aeroplanes in the world combined.Mr Mittermeier added, "By preserving the world's remaining forests, we save primates and protect other animals while preventing more pollution from entering the atmosphere to warm the climate."51.
