Many people call this plant a tree, but it is a kind of grass. Like other kinds of grass, a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground, but it will grow back very quickly. A Japanese scientist reported one bamboo plant which grew 1.5 metres (4 feet) in 24 hours! Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe. There are more than 1,000 kinds of bamboo.Not all bamboo looks the same. Some bamboo plants are very thin. They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimetres (1 foot) across. This plant also comes in different colours, from yellow to black to green. Bamboo has been used to make many things such as kitchen tools. Because it is strong, bamboo is also used to build buildings. Many Asian countries have used bamboo for hundreds of years. They often use bamboo for buildings and supporting new buildings and bridges while they are being built. In Africa, poor farmers are taught how to find water using bamboo. These African countries need cheap way to find water because they have no money, and their fields often die from no rain and no water. Bamboo pipes (管子) help poor farmers bring water to their thirsty fields without spending a lot of money. 71. How is bamboo like grass? A. It grows quickly. B. It is wood. C. It is easy to cut. D.

It was a small coffee shop that roasted its own coffee beans. The coffee shops business did well, and by 1981 there were three more Starbucks stores in Seattle .Things really began to change for the company in 1981. That year, Howard Schultz met the three men who ran Starbucks. Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment. He noticed that Starbucks ordered a large number of special coffee makers, and he was curious about the company. Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did, and he liked what he saw. He wanted to become part of the company. In 1982, the original Starbucks owners hired(雇傭) Schultz as the companys head of marketing(營銷) .In 1983, Schultz traveled to Italy. The unique atmosphere (氛圍) of the espresso(濃咖啡) bars there caught his eye. To Schultz it seemed that Italians spent their daily lives in three places: home, work, and coffee bars. His experience in Italy gave Schultz a new idea for Starbucks back in Seattle.Schultz created an atmosphere for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable and casual, and customers everywhere seemed to like it. Between 1987and 1992, Starbucks opened 150 new storesand that was only the beginning. As a matter of fact, by the year 2000, three new Starbucks stores opened somewhere around the world every day!Today, Starbucks has thousands of stores, including stores in twenty-six countries. One thing that helps make Starbucks succeed in cities outside the United States is the way Starbucks works with local stores and restaurants. By working together with a store already in the city, Starbucks gains an understanding of customers in the city.This understanding helps Starbucks open stores in the right locations for their customers.75.What is the main topic of the reading ?A. How Starbucks has grown B. What Starbucks makes C. Starbucks customers D. How Starbucks makes its coffee76. About how many new Starbucks opened in 1999?A.3 B.150 C.300 D. more than 1,00077.What helps Starbucks succeed in places outside the United States ?A. Opening restaurants in just a few locations each year B. Only selling locally produced coffee beans C. Working with other major coffee-making companies D. Learning about local customers .CCan you understand the beginning of this essay? “My smmr hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2go2 NY2C my bro, his GF & 3 kds FTF.”The Scottish teacher who received it in class had no idea what the girl who wrote it meant. The essay was written in a form of English used in cell phone text messages .Text messages (also called SMS)through cell phones became very popular in the late 1990s. At first, mobile phone companies thought that text messaging would be a good way to send messages to customers, but customers quickly began to use the text messaging service to send messages to each other. Teenagers in particular enjoyed using text messaging, and they began to create a new language for messages called texting.A text message is limited to 160 characters , including letters, spaces, and numbers, so messages must be kept short. In addition, typing on the small keypad of a cell phone is difficult, so its common to make words shorter. In texting, a single letter or number can represent(代表)a word, like “r” for “are”, “u” for “you,” and “2” for “to.” Several letters can also represent a phrase, like “l(fā)ol” for “l(fā)aughing out loud.” Another characteristic(特征) of texting is the leaving out of letters in a word, like spelling “please” as “pls.”Some parents and teachers worry that texting will make children bad spellers and bad writers. The student who wrote the essay at the top of this page said writing that way was more comfortable for her. (The essay said, “My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend, and their three kids face to face.”)Not everyone agrees that texting is a bad thing. Some experts say languages always evolve(發(fā)展), and this is just another way for English to change. Other people believe texting will disappear soon. New technology（技術） for voice messages may soon make text messages a thing of the past.78. Which of the following was most probably the title of the students essay?A. My smmr Hols B. My GF C. CU in LA D. My Gr8 Tchr79. Why do some people think that texting is bad?A .It costs too much. B. Its too difficult to type.C. Children wont learn to write correctly. D. Its not comfortable.80. Why arent some people worried about the effect of texting?A. Not many people use texting. B. Spelling in English is too difficult.C. Children quickly become bored with texting. D. Texting will disappear because of new technology.B）根據(jù)文章內容按順序從句A-G中選擇五句填入81-85中。（每小題2分）D To be a good teacher, you need some of the abilities of a good actor. _81_ you must be a clear speaker with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not just sit before his class. _82_ he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about.The fact that a good teacher has some of the abilities of a good actor doesnt mean that he will really be able to act well on the stage, _83_ The actor has to speak words that he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed before. What he has to do is to make all these carefully l
