26、 card phone in the United Kingdom.

When you cannot make direct dialing calls, you can ask the international operator to help you. Th
27、is is more expensive and takes more time, but it may be helpful if you want to speak to a particular person and no one else, in this case you should ask for a “person-to-person“ call. Even more expensive is a reverse charge call where the person who receives the call pays. If the international line
28、is busy, you can reserve(留下) a call, explain the number you want and the operator will call you back when the line is free.You can save money by calling outside office hours, for example, early in the morning, late at night, and on Sundays. Remember that the time may be different in the country that
29、 you are calling. International time is based on GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). London is on GMT and Moscow, for example, is 3 hours ahead. There is one problem: change to DST (Daylight Saving Time) for the summer. In the UK, clocks are put forward one hour in spring and put back in autumn, and so Londo

32、 a card phoneB.phone on SundayC.make a direct dialing callD.pay extraBB/BMost of the animals have little connection with animals of a different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership which is good for both of them. You may see so
33、me birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites(寄生虫)on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they move the cause of discomfort. So although they can live without each other, they do better together.Sometimes a
34、n animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot live without each other. This is so in the corals(珊瑚) of the sea. In their skins there are tiny plants which act as “dustmen“, taking some of the waste products from the corals and giving in return oxygen(氧气) which
35、 the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are even prevented from receiving light so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.（分数：4.00）(1).Some birds like to sit on a sheep because_.（分数：1.00）A.they can eat its parasitesB.they enjoy traveling with the sheepC.they depend on

38、gether.BC/BComputer people talk lots about the need for other people to become “computer literate “. But not all experts think it a good idea.One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees, is David Debut, the founder of Computer town UK. Though many people see this as a successful attempt to bring peopl
39、e closer to the computer, David does not see it that way. He says that Computer town UK was formed for just the opposite reason, to bring computers to people and make them “people literate“.David Debut thinks Computer towns are most successful when tied to a computer club but he thinks there is an i
40、mportant difference between the two. The clubs are for people who have some computer knowledge already. This frightens away non-experts, who want to go to Computer towns where there are computers for them to operate, with experts to encourage them and answer any questions they ask. They are not told
41、 what to do, they find out. The computer experts have to learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to answer all questions people ask. People neednt learn computer terms(术语).

44、e second paragraph refers to the idea that Computer town _.（分数：1.00）A.helps to set up more computer clubsB.brings people to learn to use computersC.brings more experts to work togetherD.helps to sell computers to the public(4).David Debut started Computer town UK with the purpose of（分数：1.00）A.making
45、 better use of computer expertsB.improving computer programsC.increasing computers salesD.popularizing computersBD/BDavid Beckham was born in 1975 in London, at a place called Leytonstone. When he was a young boy, his greatest fervency was in football. He played it whenever he had the chance. Someti
46、mes he would go and watch a game with his friends. When David Beckham was 12 years old, he won the Bobby Charlton Soccer Skills award. This was an important step forward for this young boy, and it led him to go for a visit to a football training camp in Spain. As a boy he played for schools of Essex
