How to Iprove Your Speech B Yesterday the police were joined by more Yesterday the police were joined by more than 20 volunteers in the continuing search for the two missing teenagers, Vicky Gray and Tom Hunter, and their guide, Gavin Jones. The police said that they had disappeared during an adventure (冒險(xiǎn) ) tour of Cape York Peninsula. This was the second day of the search and the police were now very worried about the safety of the three missing people. The police said that thesearch had covered a wide area, but the rainforest was thick and their work was made harder by the recent rain. Later on Chief Inspector (警官 ) Roger Fleet said, “The travellers had a ridio with them. If they had been in trouble, they would have called us.” The three travellers left Cooktown very early on Saturday morning in a Toyota car. They took a small dirt road that runs down to the Daintree River, a dangerous river full of crocodiles (鱷魚 ). Chief Inspector Roger Fleet said the tourists wouldnt have got into trouble if they had stayed on the main road. A photo of Vicky and Tom was found by a policeman under the “Be Careful about crocodiles” sign near the river. Why was the photo left behind? This is just one of the unanswered questions. Other questions are: Why was the photo left behind? Why was the Toyota parked and locked at the edge of the rainforest? The police said that the travellers had left a map of the area behind. Why? Why had someone drawn a cross on the point (地點(diǎn) ) where the car is? Is this a sign? What does it mean? If anyone can give information or has seen these three young people, contact the local police in Cooktown. 51.

Theres only one place, and thats Hollywood, in California. The scenes you see from the tourist train are film sets（布景） in the Universal Studios, one of the oldest and largest movie companies(公司 ) in the USA. A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars. But they are only memories. Hollywood isnt quite the same as it used to be. Costs have gone up and confidence has gone down. Movie-makers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead, they repeat old ones. The film industry is changing fast. Teenagers still go out to the movies. The theatre is a good place to meet friends away from home. But older people mostly stay home to watch series, like Dynasty have become as important to Hollywood as expensive movies. These “soap opera”, as they are called, show rich, powerful families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes. But the actors and actresses are nearly all middle-aged, like many of the people who watch them. Though it is soap opears that are keeping the film-makers of Hollywood in Business, big films are still being made in America. But more and more of them are made outside Hollywood. New York is the most important new center, but there are many others as well. Movie-makers have realized that they dont need Hollywood any more. Modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio. Other states, especially Florida and Texas, are working hard to take the film business away from California. They are offering better working conditions and lower cost. But Hollywood is fighting back. The state of California is trying hard to keep its best-known industry. 56. From the passage, we know Universao Studios is _. A. a very large park B. a busy London street C. a famous movie company D. an old Hollywood movie 57. The movie industry in California isnt as successful as before because _. A. young people dont go to movie theatres any more B. there is strong competition from other states C. its movie companies are in neeed of young stars D. the state hasnt put a development plan into action 58. Which of the following seems to be a threat（威脅） to Hollywood？ A. The use of modern cameras and other equipment B. The interest of middle-aged film stars C. The making of TV series like Dynasty D. The expensively made copies of scenes 59. What can we learn about “soap operas” from the passage? A. They are teenagers favourits. B. They are much more expensive. C. They are less attractive. D. They are cheaper and easier to make. 60. The passage mainly tells us _. A. something about the film industy in the USA B.the importance of soap operas in hollywood C. the good old days of Hollywood D. the film business in California 2008 年無錫市 考試 英 語 試 題 第 二 卷 （ 非選擇題，共 45 分） 注意事項(xiàng)： 1. 答題前，考生務(wù)必將自己所在學(xué)校、姓名和準(zhǔn)考證號填寫在密封線內(nèi)規(guī)定的 空格中。 2. 用鋼筆或圓珠筆將答案按序號寫在題后所給的橫線上。 題 號 五 六 七 八 九 總 分 得 分 評卷人 復(fù)核人 五、單詞拼寫 (本大題共 10 分，每小題 1 分 ) (A) 根據(jù)句意 ,用括號內(nèi)所給單詞的適當(dāng)形式填空。 1.
