In this small town there was not a single man of importance who would dare to have a
housekeeper younger than sixty, for fear of what people might say 36 . However, when I needed a
housekeeper I chose a girl called Cathey, a lovely little girl of seventeen from a village 37 the coast. But I made my choice 38 . After a few days' consideration over the matter and an early telephone call to her, I 39 out there one day in my Fiat when she was at home, and I had a look at the cottage and a talk with her mother over a 40 of teas, and after that I did not need anyone to say that she was 41 . I knew if there was anything Cathey did not do 42 , her mother would not 43 long to correct her. After that there was only one question to raise.
"Have you a 44 , Cathey?" said I.
"No, doctor, I have not," said she with a simple expression that did not 45 me a bit. As a doctor, you soon 46 innocent (无邪的) looks.

阅读下面短文,从题后所给的A、B、C、D四个答案中选出最佳选项。
A
Waterland, California, June 26, 2001-two cars dropped from sight, falling into the bottom of a 40-foot deep sinkhole which appeared suddenly. At a town 12 miles from Waterland, two bedrooms of one house dropped into a hole 60 feet across and 35 feet deep part of the next house hung
dangerously over the hole.
Sinkholes have been
happening without
warning in this part of California for years. So far there is no way to
predict (预告) when or where one will appear. But when one does, others usually follow in the same area, usually along a straight line.
The worst sinkhole in recent years appeared in 1996. It was 70 feet across and 150 feet deep. It destroyed one house, damaged several others and broke the walls of a city block. One hole, 15 feet deep, opened up this year in the middle of a highway, 19 seconds after a car had driven by. Others in the same area took place at night damaging houses, swallowing up trees and parts of streets and making 23 frightened people run away from their homes in night clothes.
Sinkholes happen when the weather is dry. The earth at the surface begins to drop into empty space under the ground, like sand falling in huge hourglass (沙漏). This is how a sinkhole is formed.
56. From the text we know sinkholes do not happen .
A. during the period of wet weather B. in a straight line
C. in the dry season D. at night
57. Sinkholes take place because .
A. there are large holes under houses
B. Waterland has an
underground lake
C. there are too many heavy things such as cars and houses on the surface of the earth
D. dry earth moves and fills
underground holes
58. Which of the following is not referred to in the text?
A. Sinkholes cause car accidents B. Sinkholes destroy houses
C. Sinkholes kill people D. Sinkholes damage streets
59. This text mainly tells us that
A. sinkholes have been
happening in the Waterland area and causing some damage
B. sinkholes always happen without any
warningC. even drivers cannot keep away from sinkholes
D. why a sinkhole happens and how its name is formed
B
A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.
A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by rightening him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who had read fairy stories were more often sorry for
cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being
dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by
repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.
There are also people who object to fairy stories on the ground that (因为) they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, and I must say so
peculiarly that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girlfriend.
No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was.
60. The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is .
A.
repeated without any change B. treated as a joke
C. made some changes by a parent D. set in the present
61. The advantage claimed (提出) for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it .
A. makes them less fearful
B. develops their power of memory
C .makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid of
D. encourages them not to have strange beliefs
62. The author's mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that .
A. fairy stories are still being made up
B. there is some
misunderstanding about fairy tales
C. people try to modernize old fairy stories
D. there is more concern for children's fears nowadays
63. One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that .
A. they are full of imagination
B. they are just stories which are far from the truth
C. they are not interesting
D. they make teachers of history difficult to teach
C
English is the native or official language of one-fifth of the land area of the world. It is spoken in North America, Great Britain, Australia, and New Zealand. In South Africa and India it is one of the official languages.
More people study English than any other languages. In many countries, the textbooks in universities are in English. Many university classes are taught in English even though the native language is not English.
English is the language of international communication. It is the language of international business, and science. More than three-fourths of the world's mail is written
in English. More than half of the scientific research journals are in English. Most other languages have borrowed many English words.
Why did English become the international language? In the middle of the ninth century, French was the international language. Then Britain became very powerful in the
world. England started colonies in North America and India in the seventeenth century. By 1900 England also had colonies in other parts of Asia, Africa and the south Pacific. The people in the colonies had to use English. Slowly it became more important than French internationally. After the Second World War, the United States became very powerful, and even more people began to learn English.
Is English a good international language? It has more words than any other language. The grammar is simpler than in the other major languages. However, English spelling is difficult. Foreigners all have trouble spelling English. So do native speakers.
Since 1880, people have invented over fifty artificial (not natural) languages. No one speaks them as a native language. However, none of them has ever become popular. Some people don't want to study English, but it is the international language. There is no way to change that now.
64. English is the native language of .
A. South Africa B. Australia C. All of Canada D. Malaysia
65. English started a colony in India in the .
A. 1600s B. 1800s C. 1700s D. 1900s
66. Which of the following is not mentioned?
A. The English grammar is simple in general. B. It has a great vocabulary.
C. Its pronunciation sounds pleasant. D. It is difficult to spell
correctly.
67. The author concludes that .
A. It is necessary to invent a new language
B. English is the international language whether you like it or not
C. English is much better than other languages
D. English should be spoken all over the world

The next great land area that man hopes to colonize is the moon. In size it is nearly equal to the area of North and south America. However, it presents hostile
environment.
Temperatures range from + 120 to - 150 degrees centigrade.
There is no air, no water.
Today there is considerable scientific
speculation about living on the moon. When man will begin life on the lunar surface is still not determined. But experts believe that
colonization will take place in three steps. First, there will be increasing periods of
exploration with
temporary shelters. These periods will be followed by longer stays with
housing under the surface of the moon and daily necessities brought by the colonizers themselves. Finally, colonies that are self-supporting will be established.
The main job of the early settlers will be able to stay alive. They will have to plant crops to produce food and oxygen and find water sources. After this is done, the settlers will have time to
explore the possibilities of commercial development and to made discoveries important to science.
The characteristics of the moon that make it bad for human may make it ideal for certain kind of manufacturing. Operations requiting a
vacuum, extremely cold or sterility are examples. Industrial diamond may be produced on the moon.
68. The area of the moon is .
A. about the same as that of the North and south America
B. larger than that of North and south America
C. equal to that of North and south America
D. far smaller than that of North and South America
69. According to the passage, the
colonization of the moon .
A. will be realized B. can be done under lunar surface
C. is being speculated by many scientists D. Sounds entirely impossible
70. To stay alive on the moon, the early settlers must first of all be able to .
A.
explore the possibilities of commerce B. get enough food, oxygen and water
C. make discoveries important to science D. set up industries
71.Though the
environment on the moon is bad for human survival, it is very good for .
A. making such things as industrial diamond B. making discoveries important
C. producing food and oxygen D. planting crops

The El Nino Phenomenon Again we're having a warm winter in here. The global
warming is due to the El Nino. It is what we call the Pacific Ocean warm water
phenomenon. In fact El Nino is the Spanish name for baby Jesus. Do you know why it is called that? That is because warm water moving across the Pacific traditionally reaches South America at around Christmas. Scientists have now used the term El Nino for the major
warming periods over large South America coastal areas and areas west of the
equator (赤道) and the Dateline (日期变更线). The El Nino comes every 4 or 5 years and lasts between 12~18 months. It brings extremely bad weather like storms,
drought etc. It sets fire on rain forests and burns lots of them. So we should encourage people to make a donation (捐助) for the protection of our planet. We're responsible for lots of
environmental problems and human activities have killed so many animals, and plants on the earth. And all
species (物种) depend in some way on each other to survive. So if we lose one of them, some others might die as the result. This makes things even worse. We've got one planet only. If we make a mess of it, we can't move to another.
72. Scientists call the warm water
phenomenon“l Nino”because .
A. it is very young B. it can bring us a lot of advantages
C. warm water moving across the Pacific Ocean traditionally reaches South America at around Christmas
D. it only lasts between 12-18 month
73. The country which will probably suffer from the influence of El Nino is .
A. Brazil B. China C. England D. South Africa
74. El Nino will bring us .
A. bad weather like storms and
drought B. good harvest
C. fire in rain forests D. both A and C
75. To stop El Nino from
happening we should .
A. plant more trees B. protect the animals around us
C. when we travel to nature park, we should bring all our waste back
D. all the above

Many people have heard of Robinson Crusoe(鲁滨逊漂流记),the adventures of a sailor. His ship sank and he was left on a desert island. The author, Daniel Defoe (1660-1731), was the son of a London butcher called James Foe. Daniel changed his name to Defoe because it sounded better. Robinson Crusoe was based upon the experiences of a man called Alexander Selkirk who had been rescued after spending five years on a desert island. Defoe wrote several other novels. He also wrote many short books and newspaper articles about the problems of the day. Defoe was in prison several times, mostly for debt. Much of his best work was written in the last 15 years of his life.

Some reports from the western world say a grown-up person needs ten to twenty grammes of salt a day. In our country, some people follow this idea and don't dare to have a bit more, though that is much more than they used to take. But I don't think that's all right because there is difference between Chinese and people in the western world. People in China, especially the farmers and the workers, usually do much more physical work which often makes them sweat and some salt runs away from their bodies with the sweat. So I suggest people not always copy the ideas from others and you can have a bit more salt if you need. Of course not too much.
