The first great invention was _35_ that is still very important today-the wheel(輪子). This made it easier to _36_ heavy things and to travel long distances.For hundreds of years after th

16、at there were few inventions that have as much _37_ as the wheel. Then in the early 1800's the world started to _38_ . There was little unknown land in the world. People did not _39_ to explore any more. They began to work so as to _40_ life better.In the second half of the 19th century many gre

17、at inventions were made. _41_ them were the camera, the electric light and the radio. These all became a big _42_ of our life today.The first part of the 20th century saw more great _43_ : the helicopter in 1909; movies with sound in 1926; the computer in 1928; and jet planes in 1930. This was also

18、a time _44_ a new material was first made. Nylon came _45_ in 1935. It changed the _46_ of clothes people had been wearing. The middle part of the 20th century brought new ways to help people get over _47_ .They worked very well. They made people healthier and let them live _48_ lives. By the 1960&#

19、39;s most people could _49_ to live at least 60.By this time most people had a very good life. Of course new inventions _50_ to be made. But man now had a desire to explore again. The world was _51_ to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into _52_ . Russia made the first ste

20、p. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries, _53_ China and Japan, have made their steps into space.In 1969 man took his biggest step away from the earth.

24、ll other nationalities, including their closest neighbors, the French, the Belgians and the Dutch. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons are, it may be fairly stated that the Englishman has developed many attitudes and h

25、abits which distinguish him from other nationalities.Broadly speaking, the Englishman is a quiet, shy, reserved person who is fully relaxed only among people he knows well. In the presence of strangers or foreigners he often seems restrained, even embarrassed. You have only to witness a city train a

26、ny morning or evening to see the truth of this. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or having a light sleep in a corner, and no one speaks. In fact, to do so would seem most unusual. An Englishman, pretending to be giving advice to overseas visitors, once suggested, “O

27、n entering a railway carriage, shake hands with all the passengers.” Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which, if broken, makes the person immediately suspected.In many parts of the world it is quite normal to show openly extremes

28、 of enthusiasm, emotion, excitement, etc, often accompanied by appropriate gesture. The Englishman is somewhat different. Of course, an Englishman feels no less deeply than anyone of a different nationality, but he tends to display his feelings far less. This is reflected in his use of language. Ima

29、gine a man commenting on the great beauty of a young girl. A more emotional man might describe her state “Oh, she is a goddess”, whereas an Englishman might just say “Oh, shes all right.” An Englishman who has seen a highly successful and enjoyable film recommends it to a friend by commenting, “Its

30、not bad you know”, or on seeing some very unusual scenery he might convey (表達(dá)) his pleasure by saying, “Nice, yes, very nice.” The overseas visitor must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest and involvement. Instead, he must realize that “all right,” “not bad,” and “nice,” very often

31、 have the sense of “first-class,” “excellent,” “beautiful”. This unique style of language use is particularly common in England, and is known as restrained statement.55. According to the passage, the English are different from other nationalities in _. A. habits B. attitudes C. character D. all of t

32、he above56. The underlined word “restrained” in the second paragraph probably means “ ”. A. calm and controlled B. polite and friendly C. nervous and quiet D. silent and kind57. In Britain, if you dont want other people to think you are strange, youd better _. A. talk with others as much as possible

33、 B. behave just like the English doC. say nothing about yourself D. shake hands with everyone you meet 58. If an Englishman says “all right”, it may mean “_”. A. not bad B. correct C. quite right D. wonderful59. From the passage, we can infer that an Englishman _. A. doesnt like to show his feelings

34、 so muchB. has less emotion than people of other nationalitiesC. finds it easy to express his emotion D. likes to have a joke with strangersB A university graduate described as a “respectable and intelligent” woman is seeking professional help after being convicted of （證明有罪）shoplifting for the secon

35、d time in six months. Ana Luz, recently studying for her PhD, has been told she could end up behind bars unless she can control the desire to steal from shops . Luz ,who lives with her partner in Fitzwilliam Road, Cambridge, admitted stealing clothes worth 9.95 from John Lewis in Oxford Street, Lond

36、on, on March 9. Phillip Lemoyne, prosecuting（起訴）, said Luz selected some clothes from a display and took them to the ladies toilet in the store .When she came out again she was wearing one of the skirts she had selected, having taken off the anti-theft security alarms（防盜警報(bào)裝置）. She was stopped and ca

37、ught after leaving the store without paying, Mr Lemoyne said. He added that she was upset on her arrest and apologized for her actions.Luz, 28, was said to have been convicted of shoplifting by Cambridge judges last October, but Morag Duff, defending, said she had never been in trouble with the poli

38、ce before that. “She is ashamed and embarrassed but doesnt really have any explanation why she did this ,” Miss Duff said . “She didnt intend to steal when she went into the store. She is at a loss to explain it . She is otherwise a very respectable and intelligent young lady. She went to her doctor

39、 and asked for advice because she wants to know if there is anything in particular that caused her to do this.” Judge David Azan fined Luz 50, and warned : “Youve got a criminal record. If you carry on like this, you will end up in prison, which will ruin your bright future you may have.” Luz achiev

40、ed a degree in design at university in her native Spain, went on to a famous university in Berlin, Germany for her masters degree and is now studying for a PhD at Cambridge University, UK.60What does the underlined sentence “She is at a loss to explain it” mean? AIn her opinion it was a loss to the

41、clothes shops where she stole things . BShe doesnt have any idea why she has the desire to steal from shops . CShe thinks it is a loss for her to explain why she stole things from shops. DPersonally she feels ashamed and embarrassed for her shoplifting actions.61Which of the following best explains

42、the meaning of the word “shoplifting” in the passage? A .Carrying goods in a lift for a shop. BTaking goods to the ladies toilet . CSelecting some goods from a display. DTaking goods from a shop without paying.62From the passage we can learn that _ . AAna Luz is already got her PhD at Cambridge Univ

43、ersity ,UK BAna Luz is ashamed and embarrassed and knows why she often did so Cthe university graduate will be put in prison if she steals in shops once more DPhillip Lemoyne is the “respectable and intelligent” womans defense lawyer63What would be the best title for the passage ? A. Shoplifting Sha

44、me of a PhD Student BApologizing for the Actions in Shops C. Seeking Professional Help from Experts DControlling the Desire to Steal from ShopsCAllen: Ive never been a big fan of the bears, especially the vacation show. On my last trip to Disneyland(1999) we passed it by, because we didnt want to sp

45、end the time on something we didnt really enjoy. If wed known it would be closed by our next visit, Im sure we would have watched it one more time. I was just making the point that it wasnt until Disney announced the closing that this feeling suddenly sprang(彈跳) up for the Country Bear show at Disne

46、yland.But I think the idea of keeping some attractions open forever regardless of the number of visitors it gets is a mistake. We all have great memories of the Bears, but clearly very few kids today (or I should say families today) are making those same memories from this show. That may be a sad fa

47、ct, but its a fact. For whatever reason, the show doesnt pull in the numbers. Isnt it right to use the Country Bear space to bring in more popular attraction so that more kids today can make those magic memories of an attraction they like? Otherwise arent we just telling kids today that they “have t

48、o” make great memories of the Bears, when its obvious that the kids themselves are not enjoying the Bears like we did.Roger: I am very disappointed that they have decided to retire the Country Bear Playhouse. I remember going to the show as a child, and still enjoyed it as a teenager, and now young

49、adult. It is true that there arent a lot of shows left at DL and with this one closing even less. Being at DL does require a lot of walking, and it is nice to have a few attraction that are a place to sit and enjoy a good show. I understand that DL has to develop, but there has to be some history to

50、 the Disneyland that Walt Disney first designed. There should be some parts of DL that just never go away and this is one of them. By the time I have children it looks like there wont be any attractions that I can say. I went to as a child at the rate they are going.Now the Bears are leaving. What I

51、 want to say is: stop trying to compete with everyone! DL is the best, because of attractions like the Country-Bears. If DL insists on destroying all of its magic to make way for the latest, well, then it might as well be just another theme park.64What news might get people talking about the problem

52、 of the Country Bears?AThe Country Bear Playhouse will be closed.BThere will be a new attraction for our guests at Disneyland.CThe number of visitors to the Country Bear Playhouse is falling.DThe Bears will retire because of old age and cant give shows any more.65Allen spoke mainly to get this point

53、 across that _.Athe Bears will be missedBwe should tell kids today that they “have to” make great memories of the BearsCthe longtime attraction ought to make way for a future attractionDpeople never care about what they have until all is lost66Which is the best choice to complete Rogers idea: the Co

54、untry Bears have been a part of Disneyland for nearly 30 years, _.Aand I feel it is time to give our bears a good restBbut anyway, the attraction has lost interestCbut I know that Disneyland will always be changing, and I accept thatDand I am sad that the Bears will be leaving67Which of the following is NOT in the same group as the other three?Aan attractionBa theme parkCthe Bears Dthe latest magic68Where can this passage be found?AIn a Web discussion zone. BIn a suggestion book.CIn a report on the
