Big fires are very dangerous. Most of the time, the greatest 20 (dangerous ) come from smoke. Sometimes,

9、21 , fire fighters have to enter burning buildings to rescue the people inside. They 22 are often hurt while they are trying to save lives. However, Tim isnt going to give 23 his job. Hes proud of himself and his service to the society. He always says that he forgets the danger 24 he hears somebody

10、25 (cry) for help in a burning house.三、閱讀理解（分）AA letter to Edward, a columnist(報刊專欄作家）Dear Mr Expert:I grew up in an unhappy and abusive home. I always promised myself that Id get out as soon as possible. Now, at age 20, I have a good job and a nice house, and Im really proud of the independence Ive

11、 achieved.Heres the problem: several of my friends who still live with their parents wish they had places like mine so much so that they make mine theirs.It started out with a couple of them spending the weekends with me. But now they seem to take it for granted that they can shout up any time they

12、like. They bring boyfriends over, talk on the phone and stay out forever.I enjoy having my friends here sometimes it makes the place feel comfortable and warm but this is my home, not a party house. I was old enough to move out on my own, so why cant I seem to ask my friends to respect my privacy(隱私

13、)?JoanEdwards reply to JoanDear Joan:If your family didnt pay attention to your needs when you were a child, you probably have trouble letting others know your needs now.And if youve gathered your friends around you to rebuild a happy family atmosphere(氣氛),you may fear that saying no will bring back

14、 the kind of conflict you grew up with or destroy the nice atmosphere you now enjoy. You need to understand that in true friendship its okay to put your own needs first from time to time.Be clear about the message you want to sendFor example, “I really love your company but I also need some privacy.

15、 So please call before you come over.”26We can learn from the first letter that Joan Edward .Alives away from her parentsBtakes pride in her friendsCknows Mr Expert quite wellDhates her parents very much27We can infer from the first letter that .AJoan considers her friends more important than her pr

16、ivacyBJoans friends visit her more often than she can acceptCJoan doesnt like the parties at allDJoan dislikes the boyfriends her friends bring over28According to Mr Expert, why cant Joan tell her friends her feelings?AShe is afraid of hurting her friends.B. She does not understand true friendship.C

17、Her family experience stops her from doing so.DShe does not put her needs first.29The underlined word “conflict” in the second letter means .Adependent lifeBfierce fightCbad mannersDpainful feeling30The second letter suggests that Mr Expert .Ais worried about Joans problemBwarns Joan not to quarrel

18、with her friendsCadvises Joan on how to refuse peopleD. encourages Joan to be brave enoughBLanguage learning begins with listening. Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners .Most children will “obey” spo

19、ken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word “obey” is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child .Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.Any attempt to stud

20、y the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves as particularly expressive as delight, pain, friendliness, and so on. But s

21、ince these cant be said to show the babys intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store. This self-imitation（模

22、仿）leads on to deliberate（有意的）imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.It is a problem we need to get out teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particu

23、lar person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will change as he gains more experience of the world .Thus the use at seven months of “mama” as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at ot

24、her times for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself, I doubt, however whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of this ability in an attempt to teach new sounds

A babys first noises are _.A. an expression of his moods and feelings B. an early form of lan

27、guageC. a sign that he means to tell you somethingD. an imitation of the speech of adults34.The problem of deciding at what point a babys imitations can be considered as speech_.A. is important because words have different meanings for different peopleB. is not especially important because the chang

28、eover takes place graduallyC. is one that should be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with ageD. is one that should be completely ignored（忽略）because childrens use of words is often meaningless 35. The speaker implies_.A. parents can never hope to teach their children new sound

29、sB. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speakC. children who are good at imitating learn new words more quicklyD. even after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitatingC Sometime in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front porch will disappear And i

34、he end of traditional newspapers unavoidableDespite technological advances, it could take decades to replace news-print with computer screens It might take 30 to 40 years to complete the changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapers have established financial（金融的） interests
