18、个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AA lot of us lose lifes tough battles by starting a frontal(正面的) attackwhen a touch of humor might well enable us to win. Consider the case of a young friend of mine, who hit a traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum(最后通牒) about being late
19、 on the job. Although there was a good reason for Sams a being lateserious illness at homehe decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldnt work any longer. His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.Yes, the boss was. Sam entered the office at 9:35. The pl
20、ace was as quiet as a locker room(更衣室); everyone was hard at work. Sams supervisor came up to him. Suddenly, Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand. “How do you do!” he said. “Im Sam Maynard. Im applying for a job, which, I understand, became available just 35 minutes ago. Does the early bird
21、get the worm?”The room exploded in laughter. The supervisor clamped off a smile and walked back to his office. Sam Maynard had saved his jobwith the only tool that could win, a laugh.Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected(忽略), means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It
22、can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying “no”, criticizing, getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, its the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel. For example,
23、many believe that comedians(喜剧演员) on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance(忍受力) than people in any other forum.41. Why was Sam late for his job?A. Because he was ill.B. Because he got up late.C. Because he was caught in a traffic jam.D. He was busy applying for a new job
24、.42. The main idea of this passage is _. A. Sam Maynard saved his job with humorB. humor is important in our livesC. early bird gets the wormD. humor can solve racial discriminations43. The phrase “clamped off” in Paragraph 3 means _.A. tried to hold back B. tried to set C. charged D. gave out44. Wh
25、ich of the following statements can we infer from the passage?A. Many lose lifes battles for they are lacking in a sense of humor.B. It wasnt the first time that Sam came late for his work.C. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8:30.D. Humor is the most effective way of solving problems.BWhy s
26、hould I teach my children history? That sounds like a stupid question to even ask. But, as I hear different home schooling teachers discuss history, I get the idea that there may be different reasons for teaching history. Let me briefly explain the three good reasons for studying history and two bad
27、 reasons for studying history. The major reason I see for studying history is that we can learn from the past. I am convinced that the world would be a much better place if more people understood the successes and failures of the past and the things that made these successes and failures. However, a
28、s the unfortunately true statement goes the one thing we seem to learn from history is that we dont seem to learn from history. Perhaps at least in teaching history, to my children I can do a small part in changing this. A second major reason for studying history is that it is hard to understand the
29、 current political climate in the absence of an understanding of its historical context. We can- not even understand why we are and where we are without history, much less (更不必说) try to figure out where we are going or how we should get where we want to be. I teach my children history, for one more
30、reason. I purchased a set of historical audio (录音机) tapes for our children. My seven-year-old son listened to them over and over. It was my hope that he would become inspired by the accomplishments of people like the Wright brothers to accomplish things by himself. I think that it is good that we ce
31、lebrate the accomplishments of people like Martin Luther King Jr. if, in doing so, young people are called on to stand for the principles that he stood for and accomplish what he accomplished. I also think that by studying people like Adolph Hitler, people can learn to stand against the things that
32、he stood for.45. What message can we get from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 ? A. Many people arent clever enough to learn well from the past. B. Many people fail to make good use of history and make the same mistakes. C. Many people feel it hard to understand history. D. Many people have no
33、 interest in studying history.46. In Paragraph 3, the author shows that history is useful because _. A. it makes the current political situation go smoothly B. it helps us realize the importance of historical events C. it helps us understand why things are the way they are D. it helps people accept
34、the present situation where they live47. What would be talked about in the following paragraph? A. How to teach history effectively. B. Some negative reasons for studying history. C. How to get more people to study history. D. Some bad historical figures.48. The main purpose of this passage is to _.
35、 A. inspire the parents to teach their children history B. show the importance of history in politics C. explain the reasons why children study history D. introduce the writer s own way of teaching history CThere are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You
36、 can talk to friends who have travelled to the places. Or you can go and see a colour film. Or you can read travel books.It would seem that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective(主观的) account of travels which the author has actually made himself.
37、if they are informative and have a good index(索引), then they can be useful to you when you are planning your travels. The second kind are those books whose purpose is to give a purely objective(客观的) description of things to be done and seen. If a well-read, cultured person has written such a book, t
38、hen it is even more useful. It can be sorted as a selected guide book. The third kind are those books which are called “a guide” to some place or other. If they are good, they will, in addition to their factual information, give an analysis or an explanation. Like the first kind they can be inspirin
39、g and interesting. But their basic purpose is to help the reader who wishes to plan in the most practical way.Whatever kind of travel book you choose you must make sure that it does not describe everything as “wonderful”, “excellent” or “magical”. You must also note its date of publication because t
40、ravel is a very practical affair and many things change quickly in the twenty-first century. Finally, you should make sure that the contents are well presented and easy to find.49. This passage is about _.A. how to travel B. how to buy travel booksC. how to read a travel book D. travel books50. The
41、following travel books may be of use when you plan your travels except _.A. the book written by some people who have had the same travel experience themselvesB. the book which tells you what is worth doing and seeing based on the factsC. the book in which a lot of big adjectives are used to draw you
42、r attentionD. the book which offers you a lot of useful information like a tour guide51. The date of the publication must be noticed because _.A. the world is changing and so are the places you are going to visit B. the price of the book is always changingC. the author of the book may be differentD.
43、 the contents of the book are always the same DThe worlds biggest Internet search engine，Google，has proven once again to be king of the WebUsers can download “Google Wi-Fi” software and then enjoy free Wi-Fi service available in some US cities since last Tuesday Wi-Fi is short for“ Wireless Fidelity
44、”(无线上网)It allows laptop computers (笔记本电脑) and personal digital assistants (PDAs，个人数字助理) to connect to the Internet at high speed by radio signal A person with a Wi-Fi enabled computer can connect to the Internet when near one of the networks access pointsThe place covered by one or several access po
45、ints is called a hotspotGoogle has already set up two “hotspots” in the US city of San Francisco which provide a free Wi-Fi service The WiFi technology even allows users to enjoy a free Internet phone serviceSome scientists argue that Wi-Fi may replace mobile phone networks Wi Fi is still limited to
46、 a few cities, where there are “hotspots”But its capability (容量)of sending information has already done better than that of the mobile phone network，even that of 3G(Third Generation telecommunication technology)Some scientists have started to call Wi-Fi 4G. In addition to a high speed Internet conne
47、ction，Wi-Fi has other advantages com pared to mobile phonesWi-Fi is globalThe same Wi-Fi system works in different countries around the worldDifferent from using cell phones，you dont need to change computers to use Internet phones when you go to other places and most importantly，many Internet phones

AThird Generation Telecommunication Technology BFree call Service CGoogle Launches Free Wi-Fi Service DGoogle， King of the WebEIn America, drivers education is part of the regular high school curriculum. Every student in his or her second yea
51、r of high school is required to take a class in drivers education. However, unlike other courses, it is not given during the regular school year. Instead it is a summer course. The course is divided up into two parts: class time for learning laws and regulations and driving time to practise driving.
52、 Class time is not unlike any other class. The students have a text from which they study the basic laws they must know to pass the written driving test that is given to anyone wanting to get a drivers license. Driving time is a chance for the students to get behind the wheel (steering wheel) and pr
53、actice starting steering, backing up, parking, switching lanes, turning corners, and all the other maneuvers (操作) required to drive a car. Each student is required to drive a total of six hours. The students are divided up into groups of four. The students and the instructor go out driving for two h
54、our blocks of time. Thus, each student gets half an hour driving time per outing. The instructor and “driver” sit in the front seats and the other three students sit in the back. Drivers Ed cars are unlike other cars in which they have two sets of brakes, one on the drivers side and one on the other
55、 side where the instructor sits. Thus, if the student driver should run into difficulties the instructor can take over. The car also has another special feature. On the top of the car is a sign that reads: STUDENT DRIVER. That lets nearby drivers know that they should use extra caution(小心) because t
56、he student driver is a beginning driver, not very experienced and prone to driving slowly. After the student has passed the drivers education course and reached the appropriate age to drive (this age differs in every state but in most cases the person must be 16 years old), they can go to a designat
57、ed state office to take their drivers test, which is made up of an eye examination, a written test, and a road test. The person must pass all three tests in order to be given a drivers license. If the person did well in his or her drivers education class, he or she will pass the test with flying col
58、ors and get a drivers license.56. In America, the drivers course mentioned above_ .A. is considered as part of the advanced educationB. is given to anyone wanting to get a drivers licenseC. is carried on at the same time as other coursesD. is offered to all the students of Grade 2 in high schools57.
59、 To prevent accidents, a drivers Ed car_.A. has a sign inside it B. has two sets of brakesC. is big enough to hold five persons D. cant run very fast58. We can infer that the students are required to _ in their whole driving practice.A. go out driving for twelve times B. spend at least six hours dri
60、vingC. drive for two hour blocks of time D. get half an hour driving59. Which of the following does not agree with the requirements for the students wanting to get their drivers license? A. They must be 16 years of age.B. They should go to have their drivers test.C. They must have their eyes examine
61、d.D. They ought to do well in their drivers course.60. In the last sentence, “with flying colors” means_.A. happily B. successfully C. colorfully D. quickly第二节根据对话内容，从对话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.

B。 推断题。根据 shortly after receiving an ultimatum(最后通牒) about being late on the job 我们可以了解到，Sam不止一次上班迟到了。本文主要讲了学习历史的三个主要的正面的原因。一是，以史为鉴，可以从历史中吸取教训。二是，在了解历史的基础上，更好得了解目前的状况。三
72、是，鼓励人们向伟大的历史人物学习，为社会多做贡献。阅读 B45. B。细节推断题。根据第二段首句可知作者认为学习历史的一个重要的原因是从过去的历史学到东西，但是不幸的是“我们好像从历史中学到的东西是我们好像并没有从历史中学到东西”这句话的含义表明，实际上很多人并没有从充分利用好历史的价值，因此作者希望在教授自己的孩子历史时可以尽一点力量改变这一现状。46. C。推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“A second major reason for studying history is that it is hard to understand the current political clima
