Dr. Black put on a false smile

（假笑）

as she entered Janet‘s hospital room. She couldn‘t let Janet see

that she was worried. Yet she had been searching for the cause of Janet‘s illness and hadn‘t

found a clue.

―How are you feeling today?‖ Dr. Black asked her patient. Janet replied that she felt about the same

—

terribly uncomfortable.

been the day before yesterday.

No

one

can

change

the

weather.

Nobody

can

control

the

weather.

But

if

we

read

correctly

the

signs

around us, we can tell what the more important changes in the weather will be. This way of telling what the

weather will be like on the following day or two is called weather forecasting(

天气预报

).

For

many

centuries

and

in

all

countries,

people

have

studied

the

weather

and

tried

to

make

weather

forecasting. Rings around the sun are a sign of coming rain. That many people feel their joints(

关节

) hurt is a

sign of wet weather. Some birds fly high if fine weather is coming, but they fly near the ground if rainy or

stormy weather is

on the way

. If you see a rainbow(

彩虹

) during rainy weather, this is a sign that the weather

will become clear and fine. Such rainbows come in the evening. If the stars twinkle clearly at night, then fine

weather will continue. If a fog(

雾

) appears in the morning just above a river, then the day will be warm. If the

sunset is mostly red in colour, then the following day will be fine. If a rainbow appears in the morning, rainy

weather will probably come.

Most of the above sayings have been made by the people who have used their eyes and brains to make

weather forecasting.

50. Which of the following can be used here to replace(

取代

) the underlined phra

se ―

on the way

‖?

A. away

B. gone

C.

disappearing

D. coming

51. When you see the stars twinkle clearly at night, the weather will be_________.

A. warm

B. rainy

C.

clear

and fine

D. cold

52. Which of the following signs can tell the weather will probably be rainy?

A. A rainbow appears in the morning.

B. Some birds fly high.

C. The stars twinkle clearly at night.

D. Fogs appear in the morning just above a river.

In March last year, the car I was driving was involved (

卷入

) in a serious accident with another car on a

country road. I soon found myself at the center of a crazy activity, in the middle of doctors, policemen and

passers-by. A large can opener was used to get me out of my broken car and into an ambulance(

救护车

).

Over the next eight hours, I was taken to hospital, tested with X-ray and diagnosed (

诊断

) with a broken

neck. Knowing that I‘d been saved from death encouraged me throughout the long wait in the hospital and

helped me deal with the countless visitors.

Only after I was sure that the last friend had left, could I direct my energies inwards. Flying in and out of

my line of vision during my hospital stay was the Red Cross lady, a gentle presence in white who, from time to

time, came in to offer cups of tea. After the visitors had gone, she came up to me and checked if I was all right.

I found myself telling her everything about the accident, my fears for my family as a result of my injuries

(

伤

)

—

about my whole life. While I waited for an ambulance to take me to another hospital, she stood by my

bed

and

held

my

hand

as

I

off-loaded

all

the

emotion

I‘d

hidden

from

my

family.

She

listened,

quiet

and

patient.

Even now, the knowledge that I have the ways to get in touch with her provides me with great comfort. I

look forward to a day in the near future when my angel (

天使

) and I can meet again, in happier situation.

In times of danger, faith (

真诚

) can encourage us. My faith in human nature called back by the kindness

of a stranger has helped to ease my journey back to health.

54. What happened to the writer in the accident?

A. She was hit by a car. B. She was held in her car.

C. She was caught by the police. D. She was thrown into a can.

Christmas

is

a

time

for

shopping.

But

I

think

those

of

us

who

live

in

large

ci

ties

in

Asia

would

be

cheating ourselves if we said this is the only time we are busy shopping. No, from Bangkok to Singapore, from

Shanghai to Manila, shopping

—

especially shopping in large centers

—

is a year-round activity.

Shopping centers

are good. They show Asia‘s surprising economic (

经济的

) growth, and how far we have

come in such a short time. For many of the older generation w

ho can remember a time when everyone lived in

villages and there was no running water, the air-conditioned centre means comfort, choice, luxury (

豪华

) and

better times.

Nowadays,

it

seems

our

usual

activities

happen

in

the

centre

—it‘s

where

we

shop,

eat,

watch

movies,

meet our friends or just generally walk around.

Further more, we have come to regard shopping centers as important landmarks or tourist attractions(

吸

引

). Whole generations of Asians are growing up to think that, besides home and school, the shopping center is

the most natural place to be.

My idea about shopping centers is not that they are often big buildings that look quite different from other

parts in a city, or that they promote (

促进

) shopping at a time when our planet can hardly afford it. My main

idea about centers is that they don‘t really seem to make us happy. The large advertisements outside the sto

res

could make us think that if we only had this pair of jeans, or if we hung out at this café

drinking coffee, then

we

could

feel

more

successful.

But

once

we

buy

something,

we

only

want

to

buy

something

more

—

as

everyone already knows.

Shopping centers, even though they try to look as welcoming as possibl

e, can be unkind places. To make

us buy, they must make us feel that we are short of something, or that everyone else has something we do not

yet own. We must want to surpass others or at the very least to keep up. How can this thought always trying to

be cool bring us true joy?

The saddest thing is that the modern centre has stopped us from many beautiful, necessary and important

activities. We have no one to blame (

责怪

) but ourselves. Instead of shopping, we could be cooking, visiting a

nearby waterfall, going to the beach, reading a novel, taking a long walk, playing a sport, learning a dance or

visiting each other‘s homes.

Every time we have a spare piece of land, all we can think of building on it is yet another centre. Perhaps

instead, we should be building libraries, theatres, museums, sports halls, public swimming pools, parks

—

the

list is endless. We might even consider leaving t

hat land alone. This is something that the centre may have

caused us to forget

—

in order to be happy, we must create as well as consume (

My

friend,

Victor,

is

a

zoo

keeper

in

the

National

Zoo.

His

work

is

very

interesting

but

it

is

hard.

Sometimes it is dangerous, too. Every morning the zoo keepers have to get up at five to prepare the food for

the animals. Each kind of animal is given special food. For example, the lions must be given meat; the deer

must be given grass and leaves; and the parrots must be given fruit and nuts. Sometimes some animals won't

let the others eat their food. If this happens,

each of them must be fed separately(

分离地

) .

Every

morning

each

cage must

be

washed

by

the

zoo

keepers. This

can

be

dangerous,

especially

with

lions and tigers. To make the work easier, the animals are locked in the sleeping compartments (

隔间

) while

the cages are being washed. When the animals are sick, the zoo keepers must look after them. Each sick animal

is kept in a separate cage and given medicine. Sometimes they must be given injections. It is not easy to inject

（打针）

a sick lion!

All the keepers live near the zoo. Each of them has a small house. There he lives with his family. They do

not have holidays on Sundays and public holidays. Instead, each of them has a day off during the week. Each

keeper has a holiday on a different day from that of the other keepers.

The most important job of the keepers is to look after the safety of the visitors. People must be prevented

from

doing

dangerous

things.

Many

people

have

been

injured

because

they

did

careless

things,

like

putting

their hands into the lion's cage.

31. What kind of food must be given to the animals like tigers, lions and bears?

A. Nuts.

B. Fruit.

C.

Meat.

D.

Grass

and

leaves.

32. Some animals must be fed separately because

.

A. they eat special food

B. they often quarrel with each other while eating

C. they always cause the zoo keepers much trouble

D. they won't let the others eat their food

33. When an animal is sick, it must be

.

A. taken out of the cage

B. put separately and taken good care of

C. given an injection

D. locked in a sleeping compartment

34. All the zoo keepers must work

.

A. seven days a week

B. on Saturdays

C. on special festivals

D. on weekdays

35. The underlined word

段落

) means

.

A. hurt

B. beaten

C. killed

D. caught

Father‘s Day has a very short history. It was started because there was a Mother‘s Day. And just because

some Americans thought that if we had a Mother‘s Day, we should also have a Father‘s Day. Father‘s Day has

become important in North America. And shopkeepers found it was a good way to get people to buy presents

for their fathers, presents from their shops.

By the way, very few countries have a Father‘s Day, though some have Children‘s Day, or a special day for

boys and another for girls. Mor

e and more countries are having Mother‘s Day, so maybe Father‘s Day will also

become popular before too long. Now, what do people in North America do on Father‘s Day? The newspapers,

radios, and TV tell children what they should do

－

buy a Father‘s Day prese

nt for your father. They even tell a

wife to buy a Father‘s Day present

－

not for her father but for her husband, even if he is not yet a father. And

they tell grandchildren to buy a Father‘s Day present for their grandfathers.

The important thing to remembe

r about Father‘s Day is that American children can show their love to their

fathers in a more open way.

36. Father‘s Day was started just because

.

A. there was a Mother‘s Day

B. there was a Children‘s Day

C. people liked their fathers a lot

D. fathers were more important

37. Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Many countries have a Father‘s Day.

B. Father‘s Day has a long histroy.

C. Father‘s Day has become important in

North America.

D. Maybe Father‘s Day will become popular before too long.

38. In America, people have a Father‘s Day to

.

A. go shopping with their fathers

B. help their fathers do something

C. show their love to their fathers

D. get money from their fathers

39. On Father‘s Day, shopkeepers always want

.

A. people to buy as many presents as possible

B. children to buy presents only for their fathers

C. women to buy presents only for their husbands

D. grandchildren to buy a Father‘s Day present only for their grandfathers

40. It can be learned from the article that

.

A. the writer is against Father‘s Day

B. many countries have a Father‘s Day

C. shopke

epers can get more money on Father‘s Day than usual

D. We don‘t need to have a Father‘s Day

A sign is another kind of language. Here are some of them that you see on the roads.

Number One is a sign with the number thirty on it. When drivers see this sign, they must not go at more

than thirty kilometers an hour. We see this sign when we are getting near a town. Number Two is a sign that

we‘re near a crossing. We must drive carefully. Number Three is a sign that there is a bend (

Again, we must drive slowly and carefully. It is not safe to go around a bend very fast. Number Four is a sign
