9、er by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.20 People enjoy talking about “first“. They like to remember their first love or their first car. But not all firsts are happy ones. Few people enjoy recalling the firsts that are bad.One of historys bad but important firsts was the first

10、 car accident. Autos were still young when it happened. The crash took place in New York City. The year was 1896. The month was May. A man was visiting the city in his new car. At the time, bicycle riders were still trying to get used to the new set of wheels on the road. No one is sure who was at f

11、ault. In any case, the bike and the car collided. The man on the bike injured. The driver of the car had to stay in jail and wait for the hospital report on the bicycle rider. Luckily, the rider was not killed.Thres years later, another automobile first took place. The scene was again New York City.

12、 A real estate broker named Henry Bliss stepped off a streetcar. He was hit by a passing car. Once again, no one is sure just how it happened or whose fault it was. The driver of the car was put in jail. Poor Mr. Bliss became the first person to die in a car accident.21 This passage is about_.（A）the

13、 first bicycle accident（B） first things in the world（C） two of the first auto accidents（D）the first vehicles with wheels22 In each accident the driver was_.（A）found guilty（B） going to die（C） imposed a fine（D）put in jail for a while23 We can conclude that accidents involving cars_.（A）happened most of

14、ten in New York City（B） do not happen as often as they did in the early days of the auto（C） have killed more people since Mister Bliss was killed（D）were always the drivers fault24 The“new set of wheels“ that bicycle riders had to get used to was_.（A）the new tires on their bikes（B） the automobile（C）

15、the new street（D）the bicycle itself24 If women are mercilessly exploited(剥削)year after year, they are only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clot

16、hes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe(衣柜)packed full of“ clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.Changing fashions are nothing more th

17、an the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened: necklines are l

18、owered or raised, and so on.No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anvlhing really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability(耐用). They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fue

19、l that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasnt at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.When comparing me

20、n and women in the matter of fashion the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashion of womens clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be treated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of

21、 dress reflect basic qualities of stability and feasibility? Thats for you to decide.25 Designers and big stores always make monev（A）by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industrv（B） because they are capable of predicting new fashions（C） by constantly changing the fashion in womens

22、 clothing（D）because they attach great importance to quality in womens clothing26 To the writer, the fact that women alter their old-fashion dress is seen as_（A）a waste of money（B） a waste of time（C） an expression of fashion（D）an expression of creativity27 The writer would be less critical if fashion

23、 designers placed more stress on the_of clothing.（A）money（B） fashion（C） comfort（D）quantity28 According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?（A）New fashions in clothing are created for the commercial exploitation of womem.（B） The constant changes in womens clothing reflect their

24、strength of character.（C） The fashion industry makes an important contribution to society.（D）Fashion designers should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women.28 How men first learned to invent words is unknown: in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know i

25、s that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other: and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds and which could be writte

26、n down. Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their associationsthe things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience: and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sa

27、d events of our past: and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of

28、 words is what we call literary(文字的)style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or t

29、hey will make our speech silly and rude.29 The origin of language_.（A）is a legend handed down from the past（B） is reflected in sounds and letters（C） have been found by the scientist（D）is a problem not yet solved30 One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts and actions is

30、that_.（A）they could agree upon certain signs（B） they could buy something（C） they could communicate with each other（D）they could create word31 What is TRUE about words?（A）They are used to express feelings only.（B） They can not be written down.（C） They are represented either by sounds or letters.（D）Th

31、ey are visual letters.32 The real power of words exists in their_.（A）sound（B） writing（C） charm（D）representative function32 Archimedes was a famous Greek mathematician and scientist. He was born around 287 B. C. and he died in the year 212 B. C. .Archimedes is most well-known for one specific idea th

32、at he came up with. “ Archimedess Principle“ states that a solid object which is immersed in a liquid is pushed up by a force which is equal to the weight of the water that the object moves. For example, if you put a piece of wood and a piece of gold the same size in water, only the wood will float.

33、 Both the wood and gold move the same amount of water, but the wood weighs less than this water, while the gold weighs more.It is believed that Archimedes discovered this principle when the king of Syracuse asked him to solve a problem. The king wanted to know if his crown was pure gold or a mixture

34、 of gold and silver. The king, of course, did not melt his crown to find out. The idea came to Archimedes as he lowered himself into his bath. He noticed how the water spilled out of the tub. He decided to use the same idea for the crown. He knew that a gold crown immersed in water would weigh more

35、than one made of silver. The experiment was done and the goldsmith was proved guilty of trying to cheat the king.33 A good title for the selection is_.（A）Archimedes（B） Archimedess Principle（C） A Gold and Silver Crown（D）The King of Syracuse34 The word“ immersed“ in the second paragraph means “_“.（A）c

36、arry（B） take（C） arouse（D）under water35 We drop a piece of metal into a jar full of water, the metal will float if it weighs less than_.（A）an equal amount of silver（B） an equal amount of gold（C） all the water in the jar now（D）the water that leaves the jar36 From this selection we may conclude that th

37、e kings crown_.（A）moved less water than pure gold of the same size（B） moved more water than pure gold of the same weight（C） moved more water than pure gold of the same size（D）moved less water than pure gold of the same weight36 There has been, in history, a man who was swallowed by a whale and lived

38、 to tell the tale. The mans name is James Bartley. The records to prove his unusual experience are in the British Admiralty.Bartley was making his first trip on the whaling ship Star of the East. Suddenly the lookout sighted a huge whale. The whalers knew it was a huge whale by the size of the spray

39、 it blew into the air. They lowered their small boats. James Bartley was in the first longboat. The men rowed until they were close to the whale. A harpoon was thrown and it found its mark. It sank into the whales flesh. The maddened beast crashed into the boat, snapping its tail at the men and the

40、wreckage of their boats. When the survivors were picked up, James Battley was missing.Shortly before sunset, the whale was finally captured. The sailors tied the whales dead body to the side of the ship. Because of the hot weather it was important that they cut up the whale right away. Otherwise, th

41、e meat would begin to rot and the oil would begin to spoil. When they got to the stomach, they felt something moving about wildly. They thought it would be a big fish still alive inside. But when they opened the stomach they found James Bartley. After this trip, Bartley settled in England, and never

42、 returned to sea.37 The theme of the passage is_.（A）how to hunt whales for their oil and meat（B） the hard and dangerous lives that whalers had to live（C） the duties of each man on a whaling ship（D）a man who was swallowed by a whale and lived38 The sailors knew that something was in the whales stomac

44、 died after that（D）he doesnt have boat40 The author, in telling James Batrleys story, informs us by_.（A）narrating the plain facts（B） doubt the progress of the story（C） comparing whaling to other fishing（D）dramatically telling what happened四、Part IV ClozeDirections: There are some blanks in the follo

45、wing passages. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the one that best fits into the passages. Then, mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.40 The number of speakers of English in Shakespeares time is estimated to have been about five million. Today

46、 it is estimated that some 260 million people speak it as a(an) 【C1】 _language, mainly in the United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand.
