I didnt think there would be any difficulty in getting
23、 it mended , as there are a whole lot of antique（古董）shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception（接待）. I was quite wrong. The man wouldnt even look at my chair.The second shop, though slightly more polite, was jus
24、t the same, and the third and the fourth - so I decided that my approach must be wrong.I went into the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper,“Would you like to buy a chair?”He looked it over carefully and said,“Yes, not a bad chair. How much do
25、 you want for it, sir?”“Twenty pounds,”I said.“OK,”he said,“Ill give you twenty pounds.”“It s got a slightly broken leg,”I said.“Yes, I saw that, its nothing.”Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited.“What will you do with it?”I asked.“Oh, it will be easy to sell once the rep
26、air is done.”“Ill buy it,”I said. “What do you mean？ Youve just sold it to me,”he said.“Yes, I know but Ive changed my mind. Im sorry, Ill give you twenty-seven pounds for it.”“Your must be crazy,”he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped.“I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.”“You
27、re right,”I said.“And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, Would you mend this chair for meI wouldnt have agreed to do it,”he said.“We dont do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But Ill mend this for you, shall we say for a fiver?”He was a very nice man and was gr
28、eatly amused（感到有趣）by the whole thing.56We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer _.A. was rather impolite B. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chairC. was warmly received D. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair57The expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragraph means the
29、shopkeeper _.A. changed his mind B. accepted the offerC. saw the writers purposeD. decided to help the writer58How much did the writer pay?A. 5.B. 7. C. 20.D. 27.59From the text, we can learn that the writer was _ A. honestB. carefulC. smart D. funnyBLife on land probably began about 430 million yea
30、rs ago, though it has existed in the water for perhaps as much as 3,000 million years. When we think of the first thing on land, we probably think of strange animals coming out of the oceans, but in fact no animals could have been living if plants had not been on land first. Plants had to be on land
31、 before animals arrived. They supplied the first land animals with the surrounding and food necessity, since they, the plants, are the only form of life that is able to get and store energy.The first plants to exist out of the water were probably certain kinds of algae（海藻）which were followed by othe
32、r plants that grew close to the ground and needed water in which to reproduce. Once the move to land had been made, however, evolution（进化）took place quickly. By the end of 100 million years, plants had developed their roots（根）,and some had got tree-like forms since height was very important in gaini
33、ng sunlight. About 300 million years ago, much of the world was covered with forests of huge trees. In most ways they were like modern trees. They had roots, leaves, wood, but mostly they had not developed seeds.60The main idea of the first paragraph is _.A. life on land probably began 430 years ago
34、B. the first animal on land came from oceansC. there wouldnt be animals without plantsD. plants are the only form of life that is able to get and store energy61Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Algae has existed for more than 430 million years.B. It is impossible
35、that algae might be the earliest plant on land.C. Plants get food from animals in the oceans.D. Evolution began after animals appeared on land.62Plants with roots appeared about _ million years ago.A. 430B. 300 C. 330 D. 10063According to the passage, _ appeared earlier than _.A. apples; oranges B.
36、oranges; applesC. oranges; rosesD. algae; wheatCBesides giving off gases and dusts into the air, humans produce waste that is poured on the environment. Often, this waste produced by major industries and people is harmful to both nature and human life.One of the main causes of the large amount of da
37、ngerous waste is that people do not realize how large a problem it is. Because it can be simply removed and sent to a landfill (废渣填埋场) , the problem is often believed to end there. In addition, industries have often shown an unwillingness to find ways to deal with dangerous waste because of the rela
38、ted expenses. Many industries and governments build simple landfills to store waste, and often just pour waste chemicals into nearby bodies of water. Often, chemicals used for industrial production cause dangerous forms of waste. The amount of these chemicals has increased greatly in the past, but i
39、t is often difficult and expensive to get rid of these chemicals or to store them in a way safe to human life and the environment. Every year, major health problems result from dangerous waste. Sadly, it is often only after someone has died or become seriously ill that governments will take measures
40、 to reduce levels of harmful waste. Some governments have realized how serious the dangerous waste problem is and are now trying to settle this problem. They are also trying to limit the amount of waste industries which are allowed to produce. Not only governments but ordinary people as well must wo
41、rk together to solve the problem. They can choose not to buy those products which require the production of dangerous waste, and produce less harmful waste themselves. Many scientists think that waste production can be cut. The waste can be reduced by at least one third using existing technology and
42、 methods.64. What would be the best title for the text?A. Measures of Reducing Dangerous Waste B. Danger of Harmful Waste to MankindC. Dangerous Waste and Water Pollution D. Environmental Protection65. According to the text, people _.A. do not produce harmful waste in their daily lifeB. do not know
43、where to put the dangerous wasteC. are not clear about how serious the dangerous waste problem isD. are not sure about where harmful waste ends66. What troubles industries most in dealing with the dangerous waste problem? A. How to get government support. B. How to increase their production.C. How t
44、o store harmful waste D. How to cut down the related costs67. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The polluting industries are not allowed to sell their products.B. Present technologies have settled the harmful waste problem.C. Everyone should obey the government rules of the problem.D. To solv
45、e the problem requires the efforts of the whole society.DMore surprising, perhaps, than the current difficulties of traditional marriage is the fact that marriage itself is alive and thriving（旺盛的）. As Skolnich notes, Americans are a marrying people: relative to Europeans, more of us marry and we mar
46、ry at a younger age. Moreover, after a decline（衰退）in the early 1970s, the rate of marriage in the United States is now increasing. Even the divorce（离婚）rate needs to be taken in this pro-marriage context: some 80 percent of divorced individuals remarry. Thus, marriage remains by far the preferred way
47、 of life for the vast majority of the people in our society.What has changed more than marriage is the nuclear family. Twenty-five years ago, the typical American family consisted of the husband, the wife, and two or three children. Now, there are many marriages in which couples have decided not to
48、have any children, and there are many marriages where at least some of the children are from the wifes previous marriage, or the husbands, or both. Sometimes these children spend all of their time with one parent from the former marriage; sometimes they are shared between the two former spouses（配偶）T
49、hus, one can find every type of family arrangement. There are marriages without children; marriages with children from only the present marriages; marriages with“full-time”children from both the present and former marriages; marriages with“full-time”children from the present marriage and“part-time”c
50、hildren from former marriages. There are stepfathers, stepmothers, half-brothers and half-sisters. It is not all that unusual for a child to have four parents and eight grandparents! These are enormous changes from the traditional nuclear family. But even so, even in the midst of all this, there rem
51、ains one constant: most Americans spend most of their adult lives married.68By calling Americans a marrying people the writer means that _.A. Americans are more traditional than EuropeansB. Americans expect more out of marriage than EuropeansC. there are more married couples in the USA than in Europ
52、eD. more of Americans, as compared with Europeans, prefer marriage and they accept it at a younger age69Divorced Americans _ .A. prefer the way they live B. will most likely remarryC. have lost interest in marriage D. are the majority of people in the society70Which of the following can be presented
53、 as the picture of todays American families？A. Different types of family arrangements have become socially acceptable.B. A typical American family consists of only a husband and a wife.C. Americans prefer to have more kids than before.D. There are no nuclear families any more.71Though great changes
54、have taken place in the structure of American families, _ .A. the majority of Americans still have faith in marriageB. the functions of marriage remain unchangedC. most Americans prefer a second marriageD. most Americans prefer to be singleEMany people believe the glare（炫目的光）from snow causes snowbli
55、ndness. Yet, with dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snowblindness ,when exposed to several hours of“snow light”.The United States army has now determined that glare from snow does not cause snowblindness in troops in a snow-covered country
56、. Rather, a mans eyes frequently find nothing to focus on（聚集）in a broad space of snow-covered without-grass land. So his gaze continually moves and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding something, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and
57、the eyeballs become tired and the eye muscles ache. Nature makes up for this discomfort by producing more and more fluid（流体）which covers the eyeball. The fluid covers the eyeball in increasing quantity until it makes eyes difficult to see dearly, and the result is total, even though for a short time
58、, snowblindness.Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts（侦察兵）ahead of the troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark-colored o
59、bjects ahead on which they can focus too. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop searching the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow witho
60、ut becoming hopelessly snowblind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a continuous white land is overcome.72To prevent snowblindness caused by the strong light from snow, wearing glasses or not _.A. depends on whether the snow is white enough B. makes no differenceC. makes much difference D.
61、 depends on whether the snow is thick73When the eyes are tired, tears flow out _.A. to clear the vision B. to make the eyes stop searchingC. to make the vision unclear D. to produce more and more liquid74Snowblindness can be avoided _.A. by moving ones gaze back and forthB. by walking ahead and keep
62、ing looking aroundC. by making up for the discomfort of ones eyesD. by providing the eyes with something to focus on75What is the probable meaning of the underlined part“Their gaze is arrested”?A. They get something to look at. B. They can only look at one spot.C. Their eyes are clear. D. They cant

67、加强语气。44D提示：“感情”失去平衡。45D提示：“表达”个人后悔之意。46B提示：tell somebody about something，非谓语动词。47C提示：各种疾病，由下文可知。48C提示：reason为决定做某一件事的“理由”，对某种行为进行解释。而cause为引起某种后果的“起因、内因”。49B提示：提供一种可能的假设。50C提示：seized意为“独占、霸占”。51C提示：abroad在国外，其他不合常理。52D提示：make an apology为固定搭配。53C提示：支票check可随信邮寄。钞票note不行。54B提示：burst into tears为固定搭配。55
68、D提示：此句完整应为：And he was all right.阅读理解56D在第一家商店，店家连看都不看一眼，可见他想请人修椅子被拒绝了，后来在第二、三、四家也被拒绝。57C从对方的回答“我知道你想干啥，你想让我帮你修椅子”可知他的计谋被识破。58A“我”主动提出给七英镑作为维修费，而“他”很好（a very nice man），提出“fiver”，可见它的意思是五英镑。59C从文中不难看出“我”是什么样的人：随机应变，灵活。60C第一段有这句话：no animals could have been living if plants hadnt been on land first.61A第
69、一段说陆地上的生命出现于430 million years ago，第二段说海藻是最早的植物。62C最早出现的植物在四亿三千万年前，一亿年后植物开始生根，即三亿三千万年前。63D从第二段最后可知，长根的植物比结子的植物要早,因此选D。64B65C66D67D68D第一段第二句说more of us marry，at a younger age.句中relative to表示“与比较”。69B第一段最后一句：80的离婚再婚，大多数人更喜欢婚姻生活。70A文中提到美国家庭构成的变化：every type of family arrangement，“与传统的核心家庭有巨大变化”，因此选A。71A全
70、文始终贯穿这个观点：大多数美国人喜欢并过着婚姻生活，可见美国人对婚姻是有信心的。72B第一段提到戴不戴眼镜都会产生“雪盲”的症状，如头疼，流泪甚至雪盲。73C第二段结尾部分说此时泪水流出来充满眼眶，眼睛看不清，导致雪盲。74D第三段提到的侦察兵的做法告诉我们，雪盲的产生是因为在雪地里眼睛找不到具体目标，由于寻找不到看的物体才产生雪盲。人们就将灌木上的雪去掉，扔一些深色物体，其目的是D。75A划线句子后面说“眼睛盯着灌木，找到东西可看”，因此选A。短文改错76brought前加and，用and连接多个动词表示一连串动作。77for改为as “作为生日礼物”。78on后加it，“它身上有斑点”，o
71、n用作介词，如果用with sth. on则表示“穿着，（灯）亮着”等。79played后加with，play with表示“与嬉戏”。80more删去，“给我乐趣”。81away改为out，go out表示“出门，出去”，go away表示“走开”。82families改为family，指“我”的家人。83found前加be，用不定式被动态表示“没有被找到”。84about改为from，指“我姨给我来了一封信”。85书面表达In my opinion, the Internet is helpful rather than harmful as someone else thinks.
