2、nding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 0 Harriet Tubman was born in 1820, into a terrible world. She was one of twelve children born to a slave couple. She started work at age seven. Because she was big and strong, Harriet had to work in the fields. Harriet was often

3、 beaten, by the cruel white men. Then one day she heard of something mysterious called the Underground Railroad. This was a large group of people who were willing to help Negroes to escape to freedom in the Northern States or Canada. It was called a “railroad“ so the white people wouldnt understand

4、them. “Underground“ usually means under the ground, but here it means “secret“. The routes of the escapees became “railroad lines“, the safe resting places along the way became “stations“, the people who helped the slaves along this route became “conductors“. The more she heard about it, the more ex

5、cited she became. Would it really be possible to escape to freedom? Could she “ride the freedom train“? While she was thinking of this, Harriet heard that the slave owner was going to sell a number of the slaves. She would likely be taken further south. The owners in the south were much more cruel t

6、o their slaves. Also, she would be separated from her family and her friends. Harriet decided that she would head north along the Underground Railroad, to freedom, instead of south. One night, Harriet ran quietly across the fields. After a frightening run, she came to a small group of trees, at the

7、far end of the farm. Two men were there in the trees. Harriet was desperately afraid. Would she be caught? One man smiled, and then she knew she was safe, she was with friends. These were her “conductors“. Harriet was taken to a barn. She was given food, and a place to lay down. As tired as she was,

8、 she was unable to sleep. She was so excited about her new world. This world, she was sure, would be free of beatings, and she would be able to work for herself, instead of working for someone else. 1 It is implied in the passage that _. （ A） disobedient slaves were prone to be beaten （ B） women sla

9、ves were often beaten by the white men （ C） women slaves didnt usually work in the fields （ D） Harriet was often beaten by the white men because she was aggressive 2 According to the passage, “conductors“ are_. （ A） a group of people who were willing to help Negroes to escape to freedom （ B） escaped

10、 slaves on the Underground Railroad （ C） the white people who helped the slaves along the route （ D） people who helped the slaves in the train 3 Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? （ A） Underground Railroad got its name because it was a secret railroad. （ B） Stati

11、ons referred to the hiding places for escaped slaves. （ C） Escaped slaves went to not only the Northern states but also Canada. （ D） Railroad lines are special routes of the escapees. 4 Which of the following does not contribute to Harriets escape to the North? （ A） The story of the Underground Rail

12、road. （ B） The news that the slave owner was going to sell a number of the slaves. （ C） The willingness of being separated from her family. （ D） The fact that the owner in the south were much more cruel to their slaves. 5 When Harriet decided to escape, she_. （ A） got connection with the Underground

13、 Railroad （ B） did not know what was awaiting her （ C） was sure she would succeed （ D） got connection with the men in the trees 5 Water is necessary for life and good health. We often forget this fact when we think a-bout the other building blocks of life such as vitamins, minerals and proteins. We

14、can live for many days without eating, but two or three days without water usually leads to death. The human body may look solid, but most of it is water. Newborn babies are as much as 85% water. Women are about 65% water and men about 75%. Women usually have less water than men because women, in ge

15、neral, have more fat cells, and fat cells hold less water than other kinds of cells. Water is necessary for cooling the body under hot weather and when we are working hard or exercising, water carries body heat to the surface of the skin, where the heat is lost through perspiration. Researchers note

16、 that fat cells block body heat from escaping quickly. Fat cells under the skin act like warm clothing to keep body heat inside. This is why overweight people have a more easy time staying cool than thin people. Researchers also note that cool liquids cool us faster than warm liquids, because cold l

17、iquids take up more heat inside the body and carry it away faster. They say, however, that cold sweet drinks do not work well because the sugar slows the liquid from getting into the blood stream. The body loses water every day through perspiration and urine. If we lose too much, we will become sick

18、. To replace what is lost, health experts say grown persons should drink about 2 liters of liquids each day, and more in hot weather. They say we can also get some of the water we need in the foods we eat. Most fruits and vegetables are more than 80% water. And even bread is about 33% water. 6 From

19、the passage we learn that among the following four groups of people_. （ A） fat women are over eighty percent water （ B） thin men are never eighty percent water （ C） newborn infants are over eighty percent water （ D） elderly adults are over eighty percent water 7 Why do thin people usually feel bette

20、r in hot days than fat people? （ A） Thin people perspire less. （ B） Fat people do not sweat as much as thin people do. （ C） Thin people have less heat inside their bodies. （ D） Fat people have more fat cells which keep the heat inside. 8 The author suggests that on hot summer days one should drink_.

21、 （ A） water milk （ B） iced tea （ C） cold Coca-Cola （ D） hot coffee 9 What should we do to keep enough water in the body? （ A） To take two liters of water daily all through the year. （ B） To eat everything that contains water. （ C） To take in as much as we have lost. （ D） To drink only when we feel v

22、ery thirsty. 10 What can we conclude from this passage? （ A） Water is almost as important as food. （ B） Many people tend to neglect the importance of water. （ C） Water is the origin of life. （ D） Most fruits and vegetables contain much water. 10 Believe it or not, optical illusion(错觉 )can cut highwa

23、y crashes. Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion. Bent strips, called chevrons(人字形 ), painted on the roads make drivers think that they are faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down. Now the Americ

24、an Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to repeat Japans success. Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of strips on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes. Excessive sp

25、eed plays a major role in as much a one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards are the greatest curves(弯 ), exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges. Some studies s

26、uggest that straight, horizontal bars(水平障碍物 )painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars. Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that

27、they are driving faster than they really are, but also make a lane appear to be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents. 11 The passage mainly discusses_. （ A） a new way of highway speed control （ B） a new pattern for painting highways

28、（ C） a new way to training drivers （ D） a new type of optical illusion 12 On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that_. （ A） they should avoid speed-related hazards （ B） they are driving in the wrong lane （ C） they should slow down their speed （ D） they are approaching the speed limit

29、13 The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former_. （ A） can keep drivers awake （ B） can cut road accidents in half （ C） will have a longer effect on drivers （ D） will look more attractive 14 The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to （ A）

30、 try out the Japanese method in certain areas （ B） change the road signs across the country （ C） replace straight, horizontal bars with chevrons （ D） repeat the Japanese road patterns 15 What does the author say about straight, horizontal bars painted across roads? （ A） They are falling out of use i

31、n the United States. （ B） They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time. （ C） They are applicable only on broad roads. （ D） They cannot be applied successfully to traffic circles. 15 Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killi

32、ng farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them. Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group of spe

33、cially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it. People who take part in hunting think of as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a

34、 horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy. It is estimated that up to 100 000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is brutal(残酷的 ), has risen sharply. Nowadays it

35、is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation(冲突 )between hunters and hunt saboteurs(阻拦者 ). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the foxs smell, which the dogs follow. Noisy confr

36、ontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parlia

37、ment to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain. 16 Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes_. （ A） for recreation （ B） in the interests of the farmers （ C） to limi
