24、 crossing the Atlantic. She was just about the most【 B1】 _ship that had ever been built. She was going very fast, which was【 B2】 _because there were icebergs in that【 B3】_and it was very dark that night. The passengers were all having a good time when the ship suddenly【 B4】 _one of the icebergs. The

25、 giant ship began to sink slowly but【 B5】 _. The entire ocean liner was in【 B6】 _. All the passengers were trying to【 B7】 _, but there were not enough lifeboats【 B8】 _on the ship since nobody thought they would be necessary. Eight white rockets were fired into the air in order to get help. Another s

26、hip, the Californian, was passing nearby. An officer and another sailor on it saw the rockets, but they thought perhaps people were having a party on board of the ship and were just firing the rockets for fun. Anyway they did wake the captain. But【 B9】 _ When the Titanic finally went down,【 B10】 _.

27、They were trying to keep the passengers calm through their heroic deeds.【 B11】 _. 37 【 B1】 38 【 B2】 39 【 B3】 40 【 B4】 41 【 B5】 42 【 B6】 43 【 B7】 44 【 B8】 45 【 B9】 46 【 B10】 47 【 B11】 Section A Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.

On one hand, I look forward to【 S2】 _with my family and friends in the United States. On the other hand, I know I will sorely miss so much ab

30、out China. Most importantly, I will miss my many Chinese friends all across the country. The tremendous【 S3】 _I have always enjoyed in Chinese homes remains unmatched. Ill miss the generosity and warmth of my Chinese friendsnot to mention the wonderful food! During the past three and a half years, m

31、y parents have visited me twice and one of my sisters has come once. They were deeply moved by the kindness of the Chinese people they met. As I leave China, on my familys【 S4】 _and on my own: I thank you. I will miss many things about Beijing. I have often【 S5】 _on the subway and buses and in taxis

32、. Over the years, I have had countless discussions with people Ive met on the subway or bus or with taxi drivers. Ive certainly enjoyed these conversations and through them learned a lot about China. I have【 S6】 _that Chinese spend a lot of time thinking about the same kinds of questions Americans t

33、hink about, such as how to provide the best educational opportunities for their children. Ill miss those conversations, and Ill take the knowledge Ive gained from them back to the United States to【 S7】_with my family and friends. I will also miss the little things that make Beijing the special place

34、 it is: the famous Beijing “hutongs“ and “siheyuan“ and the closely-knit communities which【 S8】_them; the men and women who sing Peking opera at Tiantan Park. Im【 S9】_by this great city. When I prepare to leave, I cannot find the words to express the depth of my【 S10】 _to all of you. A) gratitude B)

35、 acute C) complex D) sincere E) impressed F) reunite G) excess H) hospitality I) inhabit J) backward K) behalf L) share M) reverse N) discovered O) ridden 48 【 S1】 49 【 S2】 50 【 S3】 51 【 S4】 52 【 S5】 53 【 S6】 54 【 S7】 55 【 S8】 56 【 S9】 57 【 S10】 Section B Directions: There are 2 passages in this sec

36、tion. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

37、rous diseases. A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery. It is almost certain that one day remedies will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased enormously. But though the possibility of living a long and hap

38、py life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the incredible slaughter of men, women and children on the roads. Man versus the motor-car! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting

39、 back and letting it happen. It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a mans very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecog

40、nizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They swear, they are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year-olds and utterly selfish. All their hidden frustrations, disappointments and jealousies seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving. The surprising thing is that society s

41、miles so benignly on the motorist and seems to condone his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks ; the countryside is desecrated by road networks; and the mass annual slaught

42、er becomes nothing more than a statistic, to be conveniently forgotten. It is high time a world code were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are notoriously lax and even the strictest are not strict enough. A code which was univer

43、sally accepted could only have a dramatically beneficial effect on the accident rate. Here are a few examples of some the things that might be done. The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so;

44、the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through stringent annual tests for safety. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can impair a persons driving ability. Present drinking and driving laws (where they e

45、xist) should be made much stricter. Maximum and minimum speed limits should be imposed on all roads. Governments should lay down safety specifications for manufacturers, as has been done in the USA. All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned. These measures may sound inordinate

46、ly harsh. But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the annual toll of human life. After all, the world is for human beings, not motor-cars. 58 The main idea of this passage is_. （ A） Traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists. （ B） Thousands of people all

47、 over the world are killed each year. （ C） The laws of some countries about driving are too lax. （ D） Only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents. 59 What does the author think of society toward motorists? （ A） Society smiles on the motorists. （ B） Huge car parks are built in the cities and tow

48、ns. （ C） Victims of accidents are nothing. （ D） Society condones their rude driving. 60 Why does the author say “his car becomes the extension of his personality“ in paragraph two? （ A） Driving can show his real self. （ B） Driving can show the other part of his personality. （ C） Driving can bring ou

49、t his character. （ D） His car embodies his temper. 61 Which of the followings is NOT mentioned as a way against traffic accidents? （ A） Build more highways. （ B） Stricter driving tests. （ C） Test drivers every three years. （ D） Raise age limit and lay down safety specifications. 62 The attitude of the author is_. （ A） ironical （ B） critical （ C） appealing （ D） militant 62 Long bus rides are like televi
