8、、第 2部分：阅读判断(总题数：1，分数：7.00)How to Determine a Topic for ResearchBecause you are going to put a lot of your time and energy into your research project(项目) ,the topic is especially important. In many instances your instructor may give a specific(特殊的)topic. I this is done, you have little choice, but mo
9、st instructors will permit or even welcome a slightly changed focus(中心)in a topic if it is supported by good thinking.In some of your classes, the instructor may present a suggested list of several topics from which you are to make a choice. If this is done, do not simply select the first idea that
10、attracts your attention. It may be one with which you will soon become bored, or it may be one on which you would have difficulty finding all the necessary information. Looking at the topics, try to consider how you might go about developing each of them. When you find out what seems especially inte
11、resting and worthwhile(值行骄傲的), do a bit checking in the library to see if you can get the basic resources you will need.Choosing a good research topic does not necessarily mean finding something that has a lot written about it. Many times you will have to research around a topic in order to find out
12、 the most useful information. Exciting and original topics often come to mind by combining two completely different interests. Let us say that you are interested in child psychology (心理学的)and in sports. Perhaps you can combine these into a study of the effect that is watching(可得到的)on the subject, yo

We call this force gravity(地心引力). This is something we live with all the time, and we take it for granted and hardly ever t
20、hink about it. But it is a most important factor in rocket operation and must be overcome if we are to get anywhere in space, or off the ground at all.Take the throwing of a hall as an example. The harder the ball is thrown, the faster and higher it will go. What is the secret? Its speed. If we coul
21、d throw the ball hard enough it would go up and up forever and never come down. The speed at which it would have to be thrown to do this is known as escape speed. Of course, we cannot throw a ball hard enough because the speed required to escape completely from the Earths gravity is seven miles per
22、second, or over twenty-five thousand miles per hour.Once escape speed has been reached by a spacecraft(宇宙飞船), no further power is needed. A rocket aimed at the Moon, for instance, will “coast“(滑行) the rest of the way be cause the Earths gravity cannot then pull it back, and there is no air resistanc
23、e(阻力) in space to slow it down. This “coasting“ is known as “free fall“. That does not mean the rocket is falling down towards the Earth but that it is traveling freely in space without the aid of power, like a bicycle coasting downhill.Free fall is an important feature of space travel: it would be
24、impossible to carry enough fuel to provide powered flight all the time.（分数：15.00）(1).What is the most important factor for a rocket to escape from the Earth?A. To travel as fast as it can.B. To overcome the Earth gravity.C. To get away from the air resistance.D. To have strong power in its operation
25、.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(2).How fast will a rocket go to escape completely from the Earths gravity?A. Seventy miles per second.B. Seven thousand miles per hour.C. Twenty-five thousand miles per second.D. Twenty-five thousand miles per hour.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(3).As there is always the Earths gravitational(地
26、心引力的)pull, people _.A. accept it without questioning itB. never notice its presenceC. hardly think about how to use itD. often try to escape from it（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(4).When a bicycle “coasts“ downhill, it _.A. runs along the hillsideB. does not need any further powerC. runs freely to all directions
27、D. does not meet with air resistance（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(5).Why is it not necessary to provide powered flight in space all the time?A. Few spacecrafts complete their flight operations.B. The Earths gravity cannot be overcome.C. No future power is needed after the escape speed is reached.D. “Free fall“
28、takes the place of the Earths gravity pull.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.六、第二篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)HalloweenHalloween is an autumn holiday that Americans celebrate every year. It means “holy evening“, and it comes every October 31, the evening before All-Saints Day. It used to be thought the most wonderful night of t
29、he year. It was the night when witches and evil spirits came back on earth. People kept up many strange old customs in an effort to keep these evil things away. Farmers used to light big fires in their fields, and the farm workers and their families would walk around the fields singing old songs. So
30、metimes they would stop to hear the local priest offer prayers to the good spirits, and ask them to help keep the evil ones away.Great care was taken that none of the farm animals were left in the fields. They would all be locked up safely in their stables, and over each of the stable doors a few ro
31、wan leaves would be hung. Witches and evil spirits would not go anywhere near the rowan tree.In more recent times, Halloween has become a time for the parties, when children dress up as witches and play all kinds of special games. After the games there is often a big supper with plenty of pumpkin pi
32、e, cakes and a lot of other delicious things to eat.But for the most part the children enjoy the fun of dressing up and playing their favorite game of “Trick or Treat“. They run down each street knocking on the doors crying loudly “Trick or Treat! Money or eat!“, and most people have some sweets or
33、money ready to give them. Those that do not can expect maybe to have a tyre flattened, or their windows covered in soap. Or the children may just knock on the door and run away.Some children think of other people on Halloween. They carry boxes for UNICEF (The United Nations International Childrens E
34、mergency Fund). They ask for money to help poor children all around the world. Of course, every time they help UNICEF, they usually receive a treat for themselves, too.Every autumn, when the vegetables are ready to eat, children pick large orange pumpkins. Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put
35、 lights inside. It looks like there is a person looking out of the pumpkin! These lights are called jack-o-lanterns, which means “Jack of the lantern“. But in this modern age many of the pumpkins are being replaced with plastic electric ones that can be brought out each year.（分数：15.00）(1).Why did Ha

He has never missed a day of work and has a perfect driving record. He was recognized in 2000 by the Pennsylvania School Bus Association for driving

My grandfather starte
47、d the business with one bus.
