24、nly way to cool ourselves down. Across his farm and through some woods was a deep swimming hole supplied by several cold springs.The only problem with our plan was that this farm was guarded by a huge mean Hereford bull(公牛). Mr. Blickez had told us that Elsie, the animals name, was the meanest bull
25、in town, maybe even the county, and we believed in him. But the hotter it got, the more we thought there was reason to doubt about what he said. For one thing, we remembered Mr. Blickez liked telling tall tales; for another, Elsie seemed like a strange name for a bull. Finally, I talked Mom into ask
26、ing permission for us to walk through the farm, and Mr. Blickez finally agreed.On our way across the farm, we stopped at the fence to admire the swimming hole. The sun shone brightly across the cool waters. We couldnt wait to get there. Suddenly, Walt shouted loudly. Elsie had run to him and was lic
27、king his back. I immediately hid under the fence. However, when I looked up, I saw that Elsie wasnt a big mean bull at all.

28、he swimming hole and jumped in. The water was just as wonderful as we had dreamed. After that day, we had many good days and we often visited our secret swimming hole guarded by the so-called “big mean bull”.28. The author and his brother decided to go to swim because _.

Sounds unusua
32、l, doesnt it? But its not that unrealistic, with the development of Chinas high-speed railway system. China has an even greater high-speed railway plan to connect the country with Southeast Asia, and finally Eastern Europe. China is planning to extend its own high-speed railway network to up to 17 c
33、ountries in 10 to 15 years, eventually reaching London and Singapore. If Chinas plan for the high-speed railway goes forward, people could rush from London to Beijing within two days. The new system would still follow Chinas high-speed railway standard. And the trains would be able to go 346 kilomet
34、ers an hour, almost as fast as some airplanes. Chinas bullet train, the one connecting Wuhan to Guangzhou, already has the Worlds fastest average speed. It covers 1,069 kilometers in about three hours. Of course, there are some technical challenges to overcome. There are so many issues that need to
35、be settled, such as safety and maintenance of railway tracks. So, its important to pay attention to every detail. But the key issue is really money. China is already spending hundreds of billions of yuan on longer railway construction. China prefers that the other countries provide natural resources
36、 rather than financial investment. Resources from those countries could flood into China to support development. Itll be a win-win project. For other countries, the railway network will certainly create more opportunities for business, tourism and so on, not to mention the better communication among
37、 those countries. For China, such a project would not only connect it with the rest of Asia and bring some much-needed resources, but would also help develop Chinas far west. We predict that in the coming decades, millions of people will move to the western parts, where the land is empty and resourc
38、es unused. With high-speed trains, people will set up factories and business centers in the west. And theyll trade with Central Asian and Eastern European countries.32. According to the passage, the greatest challenge to the new high-speed railway plan is _. A. financial problems B. safety of the sy
39、stem C. technical issues D. maintenance of railway tracks33. Whats the authors attitude towards Chinas high-speed railway plan? A. Positive B. Negative C. Doubtful D. Critical 34. Chinas new high-speed railway plan will be a win-win project because_ . A. China and the countries involved will get muc
40、h-needed resources B. China and the countries involved will benefit from the project in various ways C. China will develop its railway system and communication with other countries D. foreign countries involved will develop their railway transportation, business and tourism35. Which of the following
41、 might be the best title for the passage? A. International Railway Network B. High-speed Bullet Trains C. Big Railway Dreams D. New Railway Standards第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分 10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Do you have a hobby? Something you look forward to spending your time with? Something yo
