Quickly I 39 out of bed and picked up a pencil and paper, then tiptoed into the hall. The

I quickly 41 a note asking Mother to forgive me for being so 42 . I didn’t want my brothers and sisters to know our 43 so I added a postscript: “Please don’t let anyone see this.” Then I quietly moved 44 my parents’ bedroom and put the letter under Mother’s pillow.

When Mother 51 , I had to go through her personal belongings. In her desk was a bundle of notes tied with a faded ribbon (布条). On top was a message in her handwriting. It read, “In the event of my death, please 52 these.”

I 53 the packet and glanced at the handwriting on the bottom. To my surprise, I 54 my childish writing, “P.S. Please don’t let anyone see this. Love, Edie.”

Tristan da Cunha, a 38-square-mile island, is the farthest inhabited island in the world, according to the Guinness Book of Records. It is 1,510 miles southwest of its nearest neighbor, St.Helena, and 1,950 miles west of Africa. Discovered by the Portuguese admiral（葡萄牙海军上

将）of the same name in 1506, and settled in 1810, the island belongs to Great Britain and has a population of a few hundred.

Coming in a close second---and often wrongly mentioned as the most distant land---is Easter Island, which lies 1,260 miles east of its nearest neighbor, Pitcairn Island, and 2,300 miles west of South America.

The mountainous 64-square-mile island was settled around the 5th century, supposedly by people who were lost at sea. They had no connection with the outside world for more than a thousand years, giving them plenty of time to build more than 1,000 huge stone figures, called moai, for which the island is most famous.

On Easter Sunday, 1722, however, settlers from Holland moved in and gave the island its name. Today, 2,000 people live on the Chilean territory (智利领土). They share one street, a small airport, and a few hours of television per day.

56．It can be learned from the text that the island of Tristan da Cunha _______.

A．was named after its discoverer

B．got its name from Holland settlers

C．was named by the British government

D．got its name from the Guinness Book of Records

57．Which of the following is most famous for moai?

A．Tristan da Cunha. B．Pitcairn Island.

C．Easter Island. D．St. Helena.

58．Which country does Easter Island belong to?

A．Britain. B．Holland. C．Portugal. D．Chile.

Dear Editor;

Why do newspapers carry so many advertisements for electronic equipment? Last Sunday I counted ads for seven kinds of televisions and thirteen kinds of radios in the Atlanta Journal. Besides that, there were pages and pages of ads for Citizens’ Band radios and tape recorders.

Don’t you realize what electronic equipment is doing to our daily life? Everywhere you go you may hear loud musician advertisements over radios; this continual noise is ruining our ears. Husbands don’t talk to wives any more; they are always watching the news or a ball game. Children ruin their eyes (not to mention their minds) with endless hours of watching not only the programs for children but those for grown-ups as well. And worse, hidden microphones find out about our private lives, and computers keep records of personal information about us. Enough is enough! I think you should limit the amount of advertising of electronic equipment in the Atlanta journal. Otherwise it will make life unbearable for us all.

59．Atlanta Journal is the name of_________.

A．a department store

B．a shop that sells electronic equipment

C．a local newspaper

D．a hotel where the writer stayed

60．What problem does Jason Collins think radio causes?

A．It has too many programs for advertising.

B．It makes husbands talk little to wives.

C．It gives too much loud music.

D．Its noise does harm to our ears..

61．Electronic equipment causes all the following problems except that______.

A．personal information is given to strangers.

B．Children ruin their eyes.

C．News of the world is given to all citizens

D．Family members don’t talk to each other

62．It is not mentioned but implied that__________.

A．some kinds of electronic equipment invade our private lives

B．watching too mu ch television ruins children’s eyes.

C．Some kinds of electronic equipment cause social problems.

D．Television has bad effects on both grown-ups and children.

C

For many years, Hawaii has been a magic name to people who like to travel. People on both sides of the Pacific Ocean, in Japan and in America, dream of seeing these beautiful islands in the middle of the ocean. Their dreams always include at least one scene of a sunset over the ocean. In the tropical lands, the sun drops, like a ball of golden fire, into the sea, and it drops so quickly that you can almost see it move. The sun leaves behind a glow that lights the skies and shines in the quiet water.

People often have a quiet peaceful time—perfect for a leisurely walk along the beach. This thing is not too difficult from the dramatic beauty that greeted the first strangers to these islands centuries ago. They were Polynesian people who came from Tahiti in canoes not much bigger than small boats.

They found the beautiful white sand beaches and the waving palm trees, but there were no giant hotels like the ones we see nowadays. The first people came to Hawaii nearly two hundred years ago, but skyscraper hotels only built in the last 25 years. Now jet planes make it possible to fly to Hawaii for a weekend from Tokyo or San Francisco or Los Angeles. Wherever the people come from, they really want to see the original beauty of Hawaii. They want to see the lovely beaches and the mountain called Diamond Head which is almost hidden by the tall hotels.

63．On these beautiful islands, one thing that every traveller won't miss is _______.

A．to swim in the quiet water B．to see the tropical plants

C．to see the sunset D．a leisurely walk along the beach 64．Which of the following does not belong to "the original beauty of Hawaii"?

A．white sand beaches B．waving palm trees

C．tall hotels D．the Diamond Head Mountain

65．The last paragraph suggests _______.

A．the scenery nowadays is not too different from the original beauty

B．it is not quite easy to see the original beauty, because some of the scenery is almost hidden by tall hotels

C．it is easy to see the original beauty, but only by taking jet planes

D．it is hard to see the original beauty, because things have completely changed in the last 25 years

66．The best title of the passage is _______.

A．Island Scenery B．Hawaii, A Magic Name

C．Travelling In Hawaii D．The Dramatic Beauty

D

There is really little doubt that the British are different from other members of the European Community as some recent statistics demonstrate(说明). Take marriage for instance. Nowhere else in Europe-except for Portugal-has fewer marriages. Yet Britain has the highest divorce rate-almost half of all marriages end up on the rocks. Italian couples are six times more likely to stick together. Of those who divorce, British men seem far more willing to take another chance than women divorcées.

However, Britain measures up pretty well in other departments. It is the second safest place in Europe to drive a car, beaten only by Norway. There are many more fatal road accidents in France, Spain and Portugal. Also, the reputation the British have for being work-shy is not confirmed(确认) by statistics. At an average of forty-four hours a week they beat even the hard-working Germans by four hours. Unfortunately, there is a downside to this. Britain and Holland share the worst rates of

job absenteeism(旷工) in the whole of Europe. The Dutch and the British, so alike in many superficial(表面的) senses, differ markedly in one area: The British lock up twice as many people as the Dutch do.

67．Which country seems to have the most safe marriages?

A．Portugal B．Italy C．Britain D．France

68．Divorced men in Britain ______ .

A．usually do not get married again

B．are more likely to marry again than divorced women

C．generally remarry women who have not already been married

D．are usually willing to live with women divorcées

69．Which of these countries has the worst road accident record?

A．France B．Norway C．Britain D．Italy

70．Which of these statements is true?

A．The British work as many hours as the Germans.

B．Britain has Europe's best road safety record.

C．Britain is tougher on criminals than Dutch.

D．The British work fewer hours than the Germans.

71．Which people appear to be the most conscientious(勤恳的) workers?

A．The Dutch. B．The French. C．The Spanish. D．The British.

These radio signals were heard first in 1967. They were coming from a point in the sky where there were unknown stars. They were coming very regularly too: one in just about a second. It was as if they were controlled by a clock

The scientists who heard the signals did not tell anybody else.

They were rather afraid to tell in case they frightened people.

The signals were coming from a very small body----no bigger, perhaps, than the earth. Was that why no light could be seen from it? Or were the signals coming from a planet that belonged to some other star?

There was no end to the questions, but the scientists kept the discussion secret. "Perhaps there are intelligent beings out there," they thought " little green men who are trying to send messages to other planets, or to us!" So the news was not given to the newspapers. Instead, the scientists studied the signals and searched for others like them.

Well, all that happened in 1967 and 1968. Since then scientists have learned more about those strange, regular radio signals. And they have told the story, of course. The signals do not come from a planet; they come from a new kind of star called "pulsar". About a hundred other pulsars have now been found, and most of them are very like the first one.

Pulsars are strong radio stars. They are the smallest but the heaviest stars we know at present.

A handful of pulsar would weigh a few thousand tons. Their light---- if they give much light----is too small for us to see. But we can be sure of this: no little green men are living on them.

72．How was the first pulsar discovered?

A．Scientists heard a new kind of radio signal.

B．Scientists heard radio signals coming from an unknown star.

C．Scientists searched the sky and saw it.

D．Scientists heard radio signals sent by little green men from a small planet.

73．What made the scientists think that the signals might be a sign of intelligent life?

A．Because they were coming from a very small body, possibly a planet.

B．Because they couldn't see the body.

C．Because it seemed that they were controlled by a clock.

D．Because they couldn't understand the messages sent by the intelligent beings.

74．Why didn't they report the news?

A．Because they were afraid of frightening people.

B．Because scientists wanted to keep their discoveries secret.

C．Because the signals were heard only once.

D．Because they didn't know if the signals were from a pulsar.

75．When did they think it safe to report the news?

A．When everyone had forgotten the signals.

B．When the signals stopped.

C．When they were tired of studying the signals.

D．When other pulsars were discovered.
