29、he Cats tricks are vainly opposed by the family pet, who is a conscious goldfish.

31、ongst the best-loved stories ever to have been written for children.Tom and Pippo in the Garden-Helen OxenburyIn 1988 Helen Oxenbury created a series of books featuring Tom, a naughty young boy, and his beloved stuffed monkey, Pippo. Ms. Oxenbury remarked that Tom was very much like her son “when he
32、 was a little boy”. Like Tom, her son would often blame his misdeeds on his trusted buddy, the friendly family dog.The BFG-Roald DahlThe story is about an orphan girl named Sophie. One night when Sophie cannot sleep during the “witching hour” and sees a giant blowing something into bedroom windows d

Pippo is a naughty dog causing trouble in the familyB. Tom likes to keep a pet dog at homeC. Ms. Oxenbury complained about her
35、 sons dishonestyD. Pippo always gets the blame for everything that goes wrong58. For whom is the passage most likely intended?A. Children. B. Parents. C. Teachers. D. Writers.BWhen a big boat, like a cruise ship, goes through the ocean, it often creates waves. This happens when the large engines on
36、the back of the cruise ship cause the water on the oceans surface move up and down violently. These waves move out from the boat in both directions. If you are captaining a smaller boat, youd better steer clear of a ships wake, so that your boat is not surfing on the waves, causing it to overturn.A
37、wave is a pattern of motion. When you look at a wave, it may appear as simply water moving across the surface of the ocean. In fact, this is false. The water is actually not moving in the same direction as the wave. While the wave itself - the pattern of motion is moving across the surface of the oc
38、ean, the water is actually moving in a circular motion, which brings the water molecules back to their original position. The water merely gives the appearance of moving forward.If this is confusing, think of the kind of wave you do at a baseball stadium. Viewed from a distance, the wave is clearly
39、moving across the stadium. But the thing that makes up the wave the people are not moving across the stadium, theyre just moving up and down in their seats. This is just like the water in an ocean wave. A lot of water is moving up and down, which gives water the appearance of moving along with the w
40、ave.Surfers pay a lot of attention to waves. If youre not in an area where the waves are suitable for surfing, then you cant surf. Usually, surfers gather in areas known for big waves waves that rise high off the oceans surface. If the wave is bigger, then the surfer is often able to surf for longer
41、 distances and perform more tricks. The height of a wave is known as its amplitude. If you could make a wave freeze, then you could measure the waves amplitude by running a tape measure from the oceans surface to the very peak of the wave.All waves can be measured using amplitude and wavelength. Whi
42、le the waves created by a boat have very small amplitude sometimes as small as a few centimeters the wavelength can be very short, as lots of waves are being generated. By contrast, a tsunami has very high amplitude, sometimes more than 100 feet, but a relatively long wavelength, as its a high wave.
43、Waves generated in the same way can have great differences in amplitude and wavelength. For example, think back to the cruise ship. While each ship creates waves caused by the movement of the boat, the properties of each of the waves may be very different. For example, a larger cruise ship, with pow
44、erful engines, may create a wave that has high amplitude and a short wavelength. However, if the ships engines slow down, they may then start creating less powerful waves at a slower rate. This would cause the waves amplitude to decrease, but its wavelength to increase.59. What does the phrase “stee
45、r clear of a cruise ships wake” in the 1st paragraph mean?A. keep awake while steering a ship B. get a clear view of what is aheadC. keep away from the cruise ship D. follow the cruise ship very closely60. The author gives an example of wave people do in the stadium in order to _.A. describe how exc
46、ited people are in a basketball stadiumB. clear the confusion over measuring the waves amplitudeC. demonstrate how to make waves in a basketball stadiumD. explain why the water appears to move along the waves61. The last paragraph gives us the impression that _.A. the waves amplitude may vary, but i
47、ts wavelength remain the sameB. the more powerful the ships engines are, the higher the waves they generateC. the amplitude of a wave depends on the direction the water moves forwardD. measuring the amplitude and wavelength of waves is not quite easy62. What is this passage mainly about?A. How waves
48、 are created and measured.B. What makes the sea water move forwards.C. Why people create waves in the stadium.D. How to steer a cruise ship in the rough sea.CYou may have heard of the man who decided to repair the roof of his house. To be safe, he tied a rope around his waist and threw the other end
49、 of it over the top of the house. He asked his son to tie it to something secure. The boy fastened the safety rope to the bumper of their car parked in the driveway. It seemed like a good idea at the time. But a little while later, his wife, unaware of the rope securing her husband, she started the
50、car and drove away. Imagine what the result would be.This story, factual or not, points to a great truth. It is a truth about where we place our security; about those things to which weve tied our safety lines. What is your rope tied to? Think about it. What do you depend on to keep you from disaste
51、r? Is your rope tied to a good job? Is it tied to a relationship with somebody you rely on? Is it tied to a company or an organization?Writer Susan Taylor tells of discovering how unreliable some of our safety lines really are. She tells of lying in bed in the early hours of the morning when an eart
52、hquake struck. As her house shook, she fell out of bed and managed to go to the doorway, watching in horror as her whole house cracked down around her. Where her bed had once stood, she later discovered nothing but a pile of bricks. She lost everything every button, every dish, her automobile, every
53、 article of clothing. Susan trembled, scared and crying, in the darkness. In the early morning she cried and called out for help.Thoroughly exhausted, she thought that maybe she should be listening for rescuers instead of crying. So she grew still and listened. In the silence around her, the only so
54、und she heard was the beating of her own heart. It occurred to her then that at least she was still alive and, amazingly enough, unhurt.She thought about her situation. In the stillness, fear abandoned her and a feeling of indescribable peace and happiness flooded in, the likes of which she had neve
55、r before known. It was an experience that was to change her life forever.In the deepest part of her being, Susan realized a remarkable truth. She realized she had nothing to fear. Amazingly, whether or not she was ever rescued , whether she ever made it out alive, she sensed she had nothing to fear.
56、For the first time in her life she understood that her true security did not depend on those things in which she had placed her trust. It lay deep within. And also for the first time, she knew what it was to be content in all circumstances. She realized that whether she had plenty or hardly enough,
57、somehow she would be all right. She just knew it. She later wrote, “Before the quake I appeared very successful, but my life was out of balance. I wasnt happy because I had been making money and always wanting more. My home, my job, my clothes, a relationship I thought they were my security. It took
58、 an earthquake and losing everything I owned for me to discover that my security had been with me all alongTheres a power within us that we can depend upon no matter what is happening around us.”She had tied her rope to the wrong things. It took a disaster for her to understand that those things are
59、 not trustworthy. So she let go of the rope and discovered peace. She found that her true security was a power within- dependable and sure.What is your rope tied to? And what would happen if you found the courage to let go of it?63. In Paragraph 1, the writer tells the story of the man to_. A. descr
60、ibe a scene B. offer an argument C. introduce a topic D. satisfy the readers curiosity64. Why was Susan crying in the darkness?A. Because she was afraid of staying in the dark .B. Because she was frightened and felt helpless.C. Because she wanted to be heard by the rescuers.D. Because she had tied h
61、er rope to the wrong thing.65. How did Susan like interpersonal relationship and income before the earthquake?A. They were alternative. B. They were very important. C. They were unnecessary. D. They were among some choices.66. Which of the following should be the best title?A. What to Depend on. B.
62、A Rope Tied to a Car.C. Please Let Go of Your Trust. D. An Experience from an Earthquake.DI had some bad news this week. My manager informed me of this news via email. It was like hearing about the death of a loved one via pigeon. Bad news should only ever be delivered face to face or voice to voice
63、.We seem to celebrate our numerous methods of communication, but really there is no communication at all. I talk to my plants more than I talk to my neighbors, I get text messages that take me three hours to read because theyre written like this: “Hi, I ope you av a gr8 day. Call me La8tr.” I had an
64、 email from someone this week that read, “Da ut ov 2day are really annoying me!” Ut? I had to say this 20 times before I understood it. Youth has now become ut. Havent we taken enough from themnow we have to take their letters?I had an email recently from a girl who used to live over the road from m
65、e as a child. She wrote, “Hi Shazia, howz u? Im sure u used 2 live across the road from me. We sometimes played tennis 2 gever at the park and you was in your eliment. I am married now wif 3 daughters.” Then, to my horror, she ended the email with: “Im now teachin in Leeds. Luv Clare.”Teaching? With
66、 English like this. Its like saying youre a train driver when youve never seen a train. It was like reading modern Morse code.Getting bad news via email makes it seem so much worse than it actually is. Just a few lines, no emotion, no comfort, not really an explanation. Just a few cold hard words. I
67、ts an excuse. Just write a few words and the problem of delivering it is no longer yours. A close friend recently told me she was very happy to announce she was getting marriedand made the announcement by email. I dont know how she didnt fall off her chair with excitement while writing it. If you ar
68、e really happy or really sad to announce something important, wouldnt you like a human reaction? Some euphoria, elation, tears, a punch in the face?I receive long text messages every day with information and explanations that I dont bother reading. Theyre boring, and annoy me. In the time it took so
69、meone to write me three laborious texts, they could have called, spoken to me, made some tea. People who put a smiley face at the end of a sentence, in an attempt to show feeling, show no feeling. I wish there was a symbol for two fingers in the air, because thats the one Id send back.The telegram h
70、as been responsible for reporting world-shattering events when there were very few other options. Now we have options, and people opt for the least humane one. My mum, in an attempt to get down with the ut of today, asked me to teach her to text. Now she constantly texts me in block capitals, so it
71、looks as if she is still angry and annoyed with me after all these years.People dont even write by hand any more. My doctor prints out prescriptions from his computer; even my mechanic prints out a receipt. I get typed Christmas cards and my friends send me emails. I get very excited when hand-writt
72、en letters come through my door, only because they rarely do.When I was at school, the girls used to write letters to each other, even though we sat side by side and spoke to one another all day. I think it was a way of expressing private things we were afraid to say when we were 14 and too shy. We
73、used to write things like, “You are my best friend, cant wait to sit next to you in math.”I miss the personal method of communication. Once the pen was mightier than the sword, now it seems the keyboard is mightier than the pen.67. What message is conveyed in the passage?A. The writer wastes much ti
74、me in reading many rubbish text messages every day.B. Few people can write letters well in modern society owing to texting messages.C. Now people are too busy to communicate with each other face to face often.D. The writer prefers personal communication rather than electronic equipment.68. According
75、 to the passage, we can conclude that _.A. people put a smiley face at the end of a message just to show they are happyB. the writer becomes excited when she gets priceless gifts from other peopleC. her classmates would write to each other because they couldnt send messagesD. the writer is a person
76、full of emotions and treasures friendship and affections69. According to the writer, which of the following can support her opinion?A. She has been separated from all his classmates many years.B. No doctors write prescriptions by hand because of computers.C. In communication, we should write more le

Long sentences are always heartwarming and happy emoticons indicate the other persons good spirits. But one word replies like “OK”, “Oh” or “hehe” quickly kill the mood. Over-reliance
79、on online communication is causing division between people and social anxiety in this digital era. With social media bringing people closer together than ever before, a new set of online language norms also appears.Connected or separated Wang Chenchen, 20, an English major at the University of Inter
