The Rhine is one of the main waterways of Germany, and the river traffic is heavy. Its interesting to watch the many b
28、oats going up and down the river. But the river traffic is not nearly so interesting as the beautiful scenery along the banks and hillsides. The boat is passing many old castles. We can see people working in the vineyards (葡萄园) on the hillsides. There are vineyards as far as the eye can see. Wine fr
29、om the Rhine Valley is famous all over the world.Suddenly our boat slows down and begins to turn a little. We are coming to a sharp bend in the river. On our right we can see a rocky cliff over 400 feet high. At first it looks quite ordinary, but there is nothing ordinary about it. There are many st
30、ories, poems, and songs about the cliff. We are looking at the Lorelei.The someone on the boat begins to sing in German, the song of the Lorelei. It is a song about a beautiful siren (美女) who has lured many sailors to their deaths.The siren is supposed to sit on the rock combing her long golden hair
31、 and singing. The sailors who hear her forget to steer, and the current of river hurls their boats on the rocks and dashes them to pieces.Soon other people on the boat begin to sing. The beautiful song adds to special magic to the moment, and you begin to realize why so many people have made this tr
32、ip down the Rhine to see the rock of the Lorelei.56.The more interesting thing to those who are sailing down the Rhine River on a pleasure boat is .A. to watch many boats going up and down the riverB. to see the beautiful scene along the banks and hillsidesC. to hear a song about beautiful sirenD. t
33、o see a beautiful siren combing her golden hair57. Which of the following is famous all over the world?A. The Rhine River. B. The River Traffic.C. Wine from the Rhine Valley. D. The Lorelei.58. We can see a rocky cliff over 400 feet high .A. on our right when coming to a sharp bendB. on the Rhine hi
34、llsidesC. from the Rhine Valley D. on the boat59. The song of the Lorelei is about .A. The Rhine wine B. a rocky cliffC. the beautiful scenery along the Rhine River D. a beautiful and dangerous woman genieBWhen I come across a good essay in reading newspapers, I often feel like cutting and keeping i
35、t. But just as I am about to do so, I find the article on the opposite side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to keep in good health, or advice about how to be oneself in society. If I cut the front essay, the opposite one is bound to suffer damage, leaving out half of it or
36、keeping the text without the subject. As a result, the scissors would stay before they start, or halfway done when I find out the result that inevitably causes my regret. Sometimes two things are to be done at the same time, both deserving (worthy) your attention. You can only take up one of them, t
37、he other has to wait or be given up. But you know the future is unpredictable the changed situation may not allow you to do what is left behind. Thus you are caught in a fix and feel sad. How come that nice opportunities and brilliant ideas should gather around all at once? It may happen that your l
38、ife changes dramatically on your preference of one alternative (choice) to the other. In fact, that is what life is like: we are often faced with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable like newspaper cutting. It often occurs that our attention is drawn to one thing only after we
39、take up another. The former may be more important than the latter and give rise to a divided mind. I still remember a philosophers (哲学家) remarks: “ When one door shuts, another opens in life. ” So a passive choice may not be a bad one. Whatever we do in our lifetime, wherever lifes storm makes us go
40、, there must be somethingwe can achieve, some shore we can land on. Dont forget God always keeps an alternative door open for everyone. While the front door is closed, there must be another open for you.60. The main idea of the passage is_.A. where there is a will, there is a way B. cutting newspape
41、rs gives us a lesson C. all roads lead to Rome D. an equal chance is provided for everyone.61. After reading the passage, we may know the writer is a person of _.A. observation B . curiosity C. encouragement D. consideration62. The word “fix” in “you are caught in a fix” in paragraph 2 refers to _.A
42、. difficult situation B. your preference of one choiceC. what is left behind D. two things are to be done at the same time63. The underlined part in the passage tells us _. A. life is like cutting newspapers B. we cant kill two birds with one stone C. life sometimes changes completely D. it is often
43、 difficult to make a choice in our life64. Which of the statements below is true according to the passage? A. Cutting newspapers is a hard job. B. When you are caught in a fix, you have met two good things. C. There must be a way that is better than the other. D. You should maintain a positive attit
44、ude towards your choice.COn average, American kids ages 3 to 12 spent 29 hours a week in school, eight hours more than they did in 1981. They also did more household work and participated in more of such organized activities as soccer and ballet. Involvement in sports, in particular, rose almost 50%
45、 from 1981 to 1997: boys now spend an average of four hours a week playing sports; girls log half that time. All in all, however, childrens leisure time dropped from 40% of the day in 1981 to 25%. Children are affected by the same time crisis that affects their parents, says Sandra Hofferth, who hea
46、ded the recent study of childrens timetable. A chief reason, she says, is that more mothers are working outside the home. (Nevertheless, children in both doubleincome and male breadwinner households spent comparable amounts of time interacting(相互影响) with their parents. 19 hours and 22 hours respecti
47、vely(各自的). In contrast, children spent only 9 hours with their single mothers. )All work and no play could make for some very messedup kids. Play is the most powerful way a child explores the world and learns about himself, says T. Berry Brazelton, professor at Harvard Medical School. Unstructured p
48、lay encourages independent thinking and allows the young to negotiate their relationships with their peers, but kids ages 3 to 12 spent only 12 hours a week engaged in it. The children sampled spent a quarter of their rapidly decreasing free time watching television. But that, believe it or not, was
49、 one of the findings parents might regard as good news. If theyre spending less time in front of the TV set, however, kids arent replacing it with reading. Despite efforts to get kids more interested in books, the children spent just over an hour a week reading. Lets face it, whos got the time?65. B
50、y mentioning the same time crisis Sandra Hofferth means . A. children have little time to play with their parentsB. children are not taken good care of by their working parentsC. both parents and children suffer from lack of leisure timeD. both parents and children have trouble managing their time66

54、ng,and such is the case with Canadian aviation and the aircraft industry. The man is the Hon. John A. D. McCurdy, and the life story of this still vigorous(积极的),distinguished Canadian is at once and at the same time the thrilling history of aviations progress in Canada. It all began one cold Februar
55、y day in 1909 at Baddeck, Nova Scotia, when John McCurdy confounded(击败)the critics by flying the Silver Dart, an aircraft designed by himself, for half a mile over the ice of Brasdeor Lakes. This was the first powered flight in Canada and the first by a British subject in the Commonwealth. McCurdy g
56、ave proof of his flying ability and of the development and the use of the aileron by being the first man in the world to carry out a figure eight in the air. He became the first to pilot a flying boat, taking off from Long Island Sound. He flew the first airplane to Mexico. In 1911 he had made the l
57、ongest flight to date, and that over open sea 90 miles from Key West to Havana. He won the first cross country race in Canada 40 miles from Hamilton to Toronto and he transmitted the first radio message from aircraft. When World War came, McCurdy took on board supervisory(监督)authority for Canadian a
58、ircraft production by serving with the government in various senior positions. Following World War ,McCurdy was honored by being made lieutenant governor(政府顾问) of Nova Scotia where he made Canadas first historic flight. He now lives in Montreal with a summer home in Baddeck, site of his first flight

62、rs, experts said on Thursday. Sri Lankan wildlife officials have said the giant waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean islands coast seemingly missed wild beasts, with no dead animals found. No elephants are dead, not even a dead hare or rabbit. I think animals can sense disaste
63、r. They have a sixth sense. They know when things are happening, H.D. Ratnayake, deputy director of Sri Lankas Wildlife Department, said on Wednesday. The waves washed floodwaters up to 3 km (2 miles) inland at Yala National Park in the ravaged southeast, Sri Lankas biggest wildlife reserve and home
64、 to hundreds of wild elephants and several leopards. There has been a lot of anecdotal evidence about dogs barking or birds migrating before volcanic eruptions or earthquakes. But it has not been proven, said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behaviour specialist at Johannesburg Zoo. There have been no
65、specific studies because you cant really test it in a lab or field setting, he said. Other authorities concurred with this assessment. Wildlife seem to be able to pick up certain phenomenon, especially birds. There are many reports of birds detecting impending disasters, said Clive Walker, who has w
66、ritten several books on African wildlife. Animals certainly rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger such as predators. The notion of an animal sixth sense - or some other mythical power - is an enduring one which the evidence on Sri Lankas battered coast is likely to add to
67、. The Romans saw owls as omens of impending disaster and many ancient cultures viewed elephants as sacred animals endowed with special powers or attributes. The tsunami was triggered by an earthquake in the Indian Ocean on Sunday. It killed tens of thousands of people in Asia and East Africa. 73It c
