16、as married to an officer in India long ago and she had a life of physical adventure as exciting as her poetry. Her husband could cross rivers, using crocodiles (鳄鱼 ) as stepping stones. He died when she was only thirty-nine. Unwilling to exist without him, she took her life, leaving a son in England

17、.“ I stared at the paper,【 36】 reading, couldnt help thinking. Crocodiles are lazy animals as a rule, but they can【 37】 like lightning when they want to. And they dont mind hurrying【 38】 theyre hungry. There used to be lots in Indian rivers, living on fish mostly, but whats a little fish【 39】 a fift

18、een-toot crocodile? They are people, fisherman or anyone else delicious enough to get too near; women doing the【 40】 or children playing at the waters【 41】 . A hungry crocodiles mouth【 42】 over a meal with a sound like a gunshot. A big fellow can【 43】 in a man in two bites. That womans husband cross

19、ed rivers【 44】 from one crocodiles back to the next. I believe it. It had to be done【 45】 before the creature could see what was happening.

20、at. She lived【 49】 the adventure with the【 50】 excitement of it all. Their real life was with tigers, snakes. Its no wonder she wrote【 51】 poetry. Then he【 52】 . I imagined how she felt. Was there another man【 53】 him in India, in the world? She was still young, hardly a sitting-room widow (寡妇 ). “I

25、American children who have grown up watching it. For one thing, recent studies show that TV weakens the ability to imagine. Some teachers feel that television has taken away the childs ability to form mental picture in his own mind, resulting in children who cannot understand a simple story without

26、pictures. Secondly, too much TV too early usually causes children to be removed from real-life experiences. Thus, they grow up to be passive(被动的 ) watchers who can only respond to action, but not start doing something actively. The third area for such a worrying situation is the serious dissatisfact

27、ion frequently expressed by school teachers that children show a low patience for the pains in learning. Because they have been used to seeing results of all problems in 30 or 60 minutes on TV, they are quickly discouraged by any activity that promises less than immediate satisfaction. But perhaps t

28、he most serious result is the TV effect of bloody fights and death on children, who have come to believe that it is an everyday thing. Not only does this increase their admission of terrible acts on others, but some children will follow bad acts that they see on television. 56 Because of TV, childre

29、n have lost their ability to _. （ A） have ideas of new things （ B） understand pictures in books （ C） read story books （ D） think in a clear way 57 When children see terrible killing on TV, they _. （ A） are frightened （ B） think its real （ C） become annoyed （ D） feel satisfied 58 The main purpose of

30、the text is to tell people _. （ A） how to prevent children from watching TV （ B） how children like frightening TV programs （ C） what bad effects TV program have on children （ D） what teachers think of todays children 58 As my train wasnt due to leave for another hour, I had plenty of time to spare.

31、After buying some newspapers to read on the journey, I made my way to the luggage office to collect the heavy suitcase I had left there three days before. There were only a few people waiting, and I took out my wallet to find the receipt for my case. The receipt didnt seem to be where I had left it.

32、 I emptied the contents of the wallet, and railway-tickets, money, scraps of paper, and photographs fell out of it; but no matter how hard I searched, the receipt was nowhere to be found. When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant. The man looked at me suspiciously as

33、if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to describe the case. I told him that it was an old, brown-looking object not different from the many cases I could see on the shelves. The assistant then gave me a form and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the cas

34、e. If they were correct, he said, I could take the case away. I tried to remember all the articles I had hurriedly packed and wrote them down as they came to me. After I had done this, I went to look among the shelves. There were hundreds of cases there and for one dreadful moment, it occurred to me

35、 that if someone had picked the receipt up, he could have easily claimed the case already. This hadnt happened fortunately, for after a time I found the case lying on its side high up in a comer. After examining the articles inside, the assistant was soon satisfied that it was mine and told me I cou

36、ld take the case away. Again I took out my wallet: this time to pay. I pulled out a ten-shilling note and the “lost“ receipt slipped out with it. I couldnt help blushing and looked up at the assistant. He was nodding his head knowingly, as if to say that he had often seen this happen before too! 59

37、The word “spare“ (line 1, paragraph 1) probably means _. （ A） to show mercy to （ B） to leave over or more than you need （ C） to be free （ D） to use in a small quantity 60 Why did the man go to the luggage office? （ A） He went there to get his case. （ B） He went there to see a friend. （ C） He went th

38、ere to buy something to eat. （ D） He wanted to ask when the train was leaving. 61 Why did the assistant nod his head when the man finally found his receipt? （ A） He understood why the man lost his receipt. （ B） He had seen such kind of things a lot. （ C） He never knew where people put the receipt. （

39、 D） He agreed with the man. 61 In ancient (古代 ) time the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches. In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working fo

40、r advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the work of testing candidates (候选人 ) for a masters or doctors degree. Generally, however, modern examinations are written. Two types of tests are commonly used in modern schools.

41、The first type is sometimes called an objective (客观性 ) test, it is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test, the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and

42、 also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly. The student has just one task: he must recognize the correct answer and copy its letter or number on his examination paper. For testing a students memory of facts and details, the objective test has

43、 advantages. It can find out a great deal about the students range of knowledge. For testing some kinds of learning, however, such a test is not very satisfactory. A lucky student may guess the correct answer without really knowing the material. 62 The passage is mainly about _. （ A） examinations in

44、 the ancient times （ B） modern examinations （ C） how to do well in an examination （ D） setting questions for an examination 63 The objective test is not very satisfactory because _. （ A） it is easy and quick to score （ B） the teacher can find out a great deal about the students range of knowledge in

45、 a short time （ C） it shows how deeply the student has thought about the subject （ D） it contains element of luck 64 Which of the following statements about the objective test is TRUE? （ A） Examinations in modern times are written, while in ancient times they are spoken. （ B） The objective test has

46、advantages for testing a students memory of facts and details. （ C） The objective test is the only way to test a students memory of facts and details. （ D） Each objective question has more than one correct answer. 65 The next paragraph will probably deal with _. （ A） the other type of examination （

47、B） the advantages of the objective test （ C） how students guess the correct answer without really knowing the material （ D） examinations in the ancient times 65 One answer to the question of land shortage was suggested by an organization some years ago. A city was to be built at sea, housing 30,000

48、people. The suggestion was to shape the city like a harbor (港口 ). The outer wall of the harbor would stand on steel columns resting on the sea bed. Naturally this could only be where the water was fairly shallow. The people would like to live in flats in the fifty-metre high outer wall. The flats wo

49、uld be all face inwards, and would be made of concrete (混凝土 ) and glass. The glass would be specially made and colored to control the heat and strong light from the sun. The planners called this man-made harbor would be calm. It would be floating islands carrying more building; a hospital, two theaters, museums, an art exhibition hall and a church. One of the islands would be a special factory to take the salt out of sea wa
