They have a beginning, a middle, and an end-with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a

15、billboard glides by outside the bus window. “Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.“ “Drink Root Beer.“ “Fill up with Pacific Gas.“ Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now !“The beginning of the ride is comfortable and som

16、ewhat exciting, even if youve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed-new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. (76)UThe bus driver has a style of driving and it s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. /UIf the driver is particularly reckless or daring, the

17、 ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left-hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interes

18、ting. But: youve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and theres a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat, of course, has become hard

19、er as the hours have passed. (77) UBy now youve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the armrests-even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at the fight time. /UThere are just no more ways to sit.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, w

23、oth traveling and watching TV are not exciting(5).The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are（分数：2.00）A.excitingB.comfortableC.tiringD.boringBPassage 2/BIt was not much fun to travel on one of the old sailing ships. Life was hard for both passengers and

24、 crew. (78) U17th century sailing ships were small and rolled heavily in rough seas, so most of the passengers were seasick. /UThere were no toilets, and the spaces below deck where passengers had to stay during gales were often not more than 5 foot high. Water was scarce and the little water they g

25、ot was brown and smelt terrible.Food was a problem, too-there was only salted meat, ships biscuits and cheese, but the cheese was so hard that sailors often made buttons out of it for their jackets and trousers. There were no vegetables or fruit, so the people on board often fell ill.The sailors, ho

26、wever, were a bit better off than the passengers. They each had a bottle of beer a day, and they needed. The work they had to do was hard and dangerous. (79) UCourage was needed, for the heavy sails had to be set and taken down in all kinds of weather, and quite often sailors were swept overboard in

27、 a gale. /UAlmost the worst thing about the voyages was the time they took up to 70 days for the journey across the Atlantic. Not surprisingly, everybody was overjoyed when they at last approached land and stepped ashore. But some ships never arrived.（分数：10.00）(1).In the 17th century _（分数：2.00）A.lif

32、rs than the USA. There are almost 2,000 of them, as compared with 180 in Japan, 164 in Argentina and 111 in Britain. The quality of some American papers is extremely high and their views are quoted all over the world. Distinguished dailies like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerf

33、ul influence all over the country. However, the Post and the Times are not national newspapers in the sense that The Times is in Britain or Le Monde is in France, since each American city has its own daily newspaper.

34、 many tend to limit themselves to state or cite news.Like the press in most other countries, American newspapers range from the “sensational“, which feature crime, sex and rumor, to the serious, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events. But with few exceptions American newspapers

35、 try to entertain as well as give information, for they have to compete with television.Just as American newspapers give way to all tastes, so do they also try and apply to readers for all political persuasions.
