BTB officesBOur boat floated on, between walls of forest too thick to allow us a view of the land we were passing through, though we knew from the map that our river must from time to time be passing through chains of hills which crossed the jungle p
35、lains. Nowhere did we find a place where we could have landed. Where the jungle did not actually spread right down into the river, banks of soft mud prevented us going ashore. In any case, what would we have sailed by landing? The country was full of snakes and other dangerous creatures, and the jun
36、gle so thick that one would be able to move forward only slowly, cutting ones way with knives the whole way. So we stayed in the boat, hoping that when we reached the sea, a friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to civilization.We lived on fish, caught with a home-made net of string (we ha
37、d no hooks ), and fruits and nuts we could pick up out of the water . As we had no fire, we had to eat everything, including the fish, raw. I had never tasted raw fish before, and I must say I did not much enjoy the experience. Perhaps sea fish, which do not live in the mud, are less tasteless. Afte
38、r eating my raw fish, I lay back and dreamed of such things as fried chicken and rice, and ice-cream. In the never-ending damp heat of the jungle, ice-cream was a particularly frequent dream.As for water, there was a choice: we could drink the muddy river water, or die of thirst. We drank the water.
39、 Men who have just escaped what had appeared to be certain death lose all worries about such small things as diseases caused by dirty water. In fact, none of us suffered from any illness as a result.One day we passed another village, but fortunately nobody saw us. We did not wish to risk being taken
40、 prisoners a second time. We might not be so lucky to escape in a stolen boat again.59What they could see in the boat was only .Ahigh walls Bvillages from time to time Cvast land Dheavy woods 60They couldnt land because .Athe mud on the shore was too soft Bthe forest was too thick to let them go thr
41、ough Cthey could not find the mark on the map Dthey could not find anyone 61The passage implies that the forest was .Arich in fruits and fish to be served as food Bnot very thick as they could advance slowly by cutting the branches Cfull of various dangerous beings Dfull of ancient trees 62The best
42、title for this passage might be .AEscape BExploration of A RiverCHow to Live on A Boat DA New ExperienceCAs soon as it was revealed(透露) that a reporter for Progressive magazine had discovered how to make a hydrogen bomb(氢弹), a group of firearm (火器) fans formed the National Hydrogen Bomb Association,
43、 and they are now lobbying (游说)against any legislation(立法) to stop Americans from owning one.The Constitution(宪法), said the associations spokesman, gives everyone the right to own arms. It doesnt spell out what kind of arms. But since anyone can now make a hydrogen bomb, the public should be able to
44、 buy it to protect themselves.Dont you think its dangerous to have one in the house, particularly where there are children around?The National Hydrogen Bomb Association hopes to educate people in the safe handling of this type of weapon. We are instructing owners to keep the bomb in a locked cabinet
45、 and the fuse (导火索) separately in a drawer.Some people consider the hydrogen bomb a very fatal(致命的) weapon which could kill somebody.The spokesman said, Hydrogen bombs dont kill peoplepeople kill people. The bomb is for self-protection and it also has a deterrent(威慑的) effect. If somebody knows you h
46、ave a nuclear weapon in your house, theyre going to think twice about breaking in.But those who want to ban the bomb for American citizens claim that if you have one locked in the cabinet, with the fuse in a drawer, you would never be able to assemble it in time to stop an intruder (侵入者).Another arg
47、ument against allowing people to own a bomb is that at the moment it is very expensive to build one. So what your association is backing is a program which would allow the middle and upper classes to acquire(得到) a bomb while poor people will be left defenseless with just handguns.63. According to th
48、e passage, some people started a national association so as to_ .A. block any legislation to ban the private possession of the bombB .bring the mass production of the destructive weapon into proper relationC.instruct people how to keep the bomb safe at homeD. support the large-scale sale of this new
49、ly invented weapon64. Some people oppose the ownership of H-bombs by individuals on the grounds that_ .A. the size of the bomb makes it difficult to keep in a drawer B. most people dont know how to handle the weaponC. peoples lives will be threatened by the weaponD. they may fall into the hands of c
50、riminals65. By saying that the bomb also has a deterrent effect the spokesman means that it_ .A. will frighten away any possible intrudersB. can show the special status of its ownersC. will threaten the safety of the owners as wellD. can kill those entering others houses by force66. According to the
51、 passage, opponents(反对者)of the private ownership of H-bombs are very much worried that _ .A. the influence(影响) of the association is too powerful for the less privileged(有特权的) to overcomeB. poorly-educated Americans will find it difficult to make use of the weaponC. the wide use of the weapon will p
52、ush up living expenses greatlyD. the cost of the weapon will put citizens on an unequal basis67. From the tone of the passage we know that the author is_.A. doubtful about the necessity of keeping H-bombs at home for safetyB. unhappy with those who vote against the ownership of H-bombsC. not serious
53、 about the private ownership of H-bombsD. concerned about the spread of nuclear weaponsD We find that bright children are seldom held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming(按能力分班)pupils
54、. It does not consider the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and not-so-bright children. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be the bottom of the top grade. Besides, it is rather bad to grade people just according to their intellectual(
55、智力的) ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We care much about the development of all the pupils abilities to the full, not just their study ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching does good to all these aspects of le
56、arning. In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the chance to learn to work together, to share, to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to deal with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze(分析) an
57、d evaluate(评价) and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher. Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual(个人的)tasks, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is proper. We enc
58、ourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this well. An advanced pupil can do advanced work and it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to achieve this goa
59、l.68. By “ held back” (Paragraph 1) the writer means “_”.A. made to remain in the same class B. forced to study in the lower classC. drawn away from their studies D. prevented from advancing69. The writer argues that what a teacher really cares about should be the development of the students _.A. pe
60、rsonal qualities and social skills B. total personalityC. learning ability and communicative skills D. intellectual ability70. The writers purpose in writing this passage is to _.A. argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classB. advise pair work and group work for classroom a
61、ctivityC. offer advice on the proper use of the libraryD. tell us the importance of proper formal classroom teachingE A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in almost the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal
62、texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual situation of the time and the child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better. A charge made against fairy tales(神话故事）is that they harm the child by frighteni
63、ng him or making him sad thinking. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not. As to fears, there are, I think, some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fa
64、iry story. Often, however, this arises (出现) from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition(重复)turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered. There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively tr
65、ue, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist and that, instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales, the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history. I find such people, I must say, so peculiar (奇怪的) that I do not know how to argue wi
66、th them. If their case were sound(据实的), the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girl-friend. No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no cl
67、ever child has ever believed that it was.71.The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is _ .A . repeated without any change B. treated as a jokeC. made some changes by the parent D. set in the present72.According to the passage, great fear can take place in a child when the s
68、tory is _ .A. in a realistic setting B. heard for the first timeC. repeated too often D. told in a different way73.The advantage claimed (提出) for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it _.A. makes them less fearfulB. develops their power of memoryC. makes them believe there is nothing t
69、o be afraid ofD. encourages them not to have strange beliefs74.The authors mention of sticks and telephones is meant to suggest that _.A. fairy stories are still being made upB. there is some misunderstanding about fairy talesC. people try to modernize old fairy storiesD. there is more concern for c
70、hildrens fears nowadays75. One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that _.A. they are full of imaginationB. they just make up the stories which are far from the truthC. they are not interestingD. they make teachers of history difficult to teach第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 短文改错

But it was so expensive to study there that during the holidays he had to get two jobs at the same time so as to get enough money for
91、 his studies. One summer he was able to get a job in a butcher shop during the daytime. And another in a hospital at night. In the shop, he learnt to cut meat up quite nicely. So the butcher often let him do all the work. In the hospital, on the other hand, he was, of course, allowed to do only the
92、simplest jobs, like helping to lift people and to carry them from one part of the hospital to another. Both at the butchers shop and at the hospital Dick had to wear white clothes. One evening at the hospital, Dick had to help to carry a woman from her bed to the operating room. The woman happened to be one of his customers. She was already feeling frightened at the thought of the operation before he came to get her. But when she saw Dick, that almost finished her. “No! No!” she cried. “Not the butcher! I wont be operated by the butcher!” Then she fainted away.
