One moment I was part of the hurrying crowds, the next I stood apart, my back to the wall, my hat on the 41 before me, the violin under my chin.The first notes I played were loud and raw, like a declaration of protest, then they settled down and began

20、to run more _42 and to stay more or less in tune. To my 43 ,I was neither arrested nor told to shut up. Indeed, nobody took any 44 at all. Then an old man, without stopping at all, dropped a penny into my 45 as though getting rid of some guilty evidence.I worked the streets of Southampton for severa

21、l days, gradually obtaining the truth of the 46 by trial and error. It was not a good thing, for instance, to let the hat fill up with money-the sight could 47 a kind-hearted man; nor was it wise to 48 it completely, which could also confuse him, giving him no hint as to where to 49 his money.

The biggest overhaul of moto

27、ring law in a generation could also lead to all drivers having to give assurances（保證）of their fitness to get behind the wheel every 10 years. Other changes under consideration include issuing（發(fā)放）daylight driving licenses for motorists with night blindness, together with stricter checks on all driver

28、s whose medical condition brought a threat to other road users. It is understood that the proposals will be part of a review of the law governing the medical fitness of drivers that will be announced publicly by the summer. The Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency is dealing with a rising number of m

29、otorists who are concerned that they have conditions-from failing eyesight to epilepsy-that could affect their driving. In 2006, the DVLA dealt with 600,000 motorists whose physical ability to drive needed to be recertified（重新認證）, a 20 per cent rise on the previous year. With an ageing population, t

30、he biggest challenge is dealing with the rising number of elderly motorists. By 2021, there will be an estimated three million drivers over the age of 70 on Britains roads. Drivers must renew their licenses at the age of 70 and every three years thereafter. The applicant is legally required to tell

31、the DVLA of any conditions that could weaken their ability behind the wheel. Ministers have ruled out a compulsory maximum age for driving but will instead rely on tightening up the checks on motorists over the age of 75. The most likely option would be tests to ensure motorists were fit to drive. T

32、hey would include an eyesight test and a cognitive（認知） test that would prove a drivers ability to react to road signs, driving conditions, pedestrians and vehicles. However, checks are likely to be tightened at all ages. The strictest controls are expected to be imposed（強制） on motorists of any age w

33、ho have had a heart attack or stroke. They could have to produce a doctors approval to resume（重新得到）driving. Anyone making a false declaration would be guilty of a criminal offence.56.

34、the summerB. Drivers over the age of 75 must renew their licenses every three yearsC. Doctors will decide whether one can get their driving licensesD. Drivers at all ages will be expected to provide their medical condition57. What is the biggest challenge to the traffic safety in Britain according t

35、o the writer?A. Ageing population B. Increasing number of carsC. Increasing number of elderly motorists D. Driving conditions58. The underlined word “overhaul” in Paragraph 2 means _ A. change B. consideration C. concern D. challenge59. What can be learned from the passage?A. There will be more and

36、more aged drivers in BritainB. Anyone can get a driving license as long as he/she is in good healthC. Health tends to decline as one gets old D. It will be guilty to make a false declaration BThe long, lonely voyage of the Japanese ghost ship is over.A US Coast Guard cutter poured cannon fire(開炮) in

37、to an abandoned Japanese ghost ship that had been floating since last years tsunami, sinking the ship into waters more than 305 meters deep in the Gulf of Alaska and removing the danger it created to shipping and the coastline on Thursday.The cutters guns tore holes in the 164-foot Ryou-Un Maru, and

38、 then it began to take on water and lean to one side. In about four hours, the ship disappeared into the sea, said Chief Petty Officer Kip Wadlow. The ship had no lights or communications system, and its tank was able to carry more than 7,570 liters of diesel fuel. Officials, however, didnt know exa

39、ctly how much fuel was aboard. “Its less risky than it would be running into shore or running into other ships,” coast guard spokesman Paul Webb said. The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency studied the problem and decided it was safer to sink t

40、he ship than let the fuel evaporate and pollute the sea environment.Ryou-Un Maru was probably among the first wave of the 1.5 million tons of garbage of refrigerators, washing machines, televisions, roofs and fishing nets heading toward North America since last March when a magnitude 9.0 earthquake

41、struck Japan.As the coast guard was ready to fire on the ship, a Canadian fishing ship, the 19-meter Bernice C, claimed the rights to save the ghost ship in international waters. Plans to sink it were paused so the Canadian crew could have a chance to take the stricken ship. A Canadian official with

42、 knowledge of the situation told the Associated Press that the Bernice C was unable to drag it. Then the Canadian boat left, and once it was about 10 kilometers from the Japanese ship, the Coast Guard began to fire, first with 25 mm shells, then a few hours later with ammunition twice that size. Sta

43、te officials have been working to test the danger of garbage including materials affected by a damaged nuclear power plant, to see if Alaska residents, seafood or wild animals could be affected.60. Which of the following is NOT the reason for sinking the Japanese ship? A. It had no lights or communi

44、cations system. B. It might be washed up onto the shore. C. It was a danger to other passing ships. D. The oil it carried could pollute the sea.61. The plan to fire on the Japanese ghost ship was paused because _. A. the ghost ship was beyond the reach of the Coast Guards guns B. the shells were not

45、 powerful enough to sink the ghost ship C. state officials worried the ghost ship might give out radiation D. a Canadian fishing boat wanted to save the ghost ship62. Which of the following could be the best title for the passage? A. Japanese ghost ship arriving at US B. Tsunami garbage heading to U

46、SC. Cannon fire sinking Japanese ghost ship D. Japanese ghost ship polluting the Pacific CThe art of reading fiction is largely a matter of inferring meanings. To infer means to understand facts which are not directly stated-only suggested. Inference is one of the commonest ways of knowing things: a

47、 child holds his knee and cries; this action implies his feeling; an observer infers that the child is hurt. To infer accurately in everyday life requires caution in observing; to infer skillfully in fiction requires caution in reading; both require disciplined imagination.The short-story reader can

48、 expect to find certain basic elements in any story. For example, all stories involve a person or persons, in a particular setting, faced with a demand for a response. The response called for may be a physical action, such as defeating an adversary(對手) or escaping from a danger; or it may be a menta

49、l action, such as adjusting to others or within oneself. In either case, the short story is a description in two ways: first, it shows the motives for a given human action; second, it makes a point about the general human situation. Such descriptions, however, rather than being stated directly, usua

50、lly are implied by the elements of the story.When the reader of a story understands all the facts and their interrelationships, he is ready to infer the significance of the story as a whole-its comment on the human situation. This comment, or theme, is the seed from which the story grew. It is also

51、the idea by which all the separate elements of the story are governed, while these in turn further shape and modify the theme. In addition to action, character, and setting, these elements include structure, mood, tone, and point of view.Fiction reading requires an awareness of all the ways in which

52、 a story communicates. It also requires attention to detail. What the author provides is a network of points which serve as clues to his meaning. He invites the reader to develop the meaning by inference, actually to create much of the story himself and so make it part of his own experience.63.Accor
