(20;1.5,30 )In the past, man did not have to think about the pro- tection of his environment.There were few people on the earth, and natural resources seemed to be 21.

Today things are 22, the world has become too 23. We are using up our natural resources too quickly and at the same time we are 24 our environment with dangerous chemicals ( ).If we continue to do this, human life on the earth 25 survive.

Everyone 26 today that if too many fishes are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left.Yet, with modern fishing 27, more and more fishes are caught.We know that if too many trees are cut down, 28 will disappear and nothing will grow on the earth.Yet we 29 to use bigger and more powerful machines to 30 more and more

trees.We realize that if rivers are polluted with waste products from factories, fish will die. 31, in most countries wastes are 32 put into rivers or into the sea, and there are 33 laws to stop this.We know, too, that if the 34 of the world con-

tinues to rise at the present rate, in a few years there will not be enough 35. What can we do to solve these problems?If we eat more vegetables and less 36, there will be more food available()for everyone. Land that is used to grow crops 37 five times

more people than land where animals are kept.Our natural resources will 38 longer if we learn to recycle () them.The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth 39.Finally, if we educate people to think about the

problems, we shall have a better and cleaner 40 in the future.21.A.beautiful B.unlimited C.unusualD.valuable22.A.common B.the sameC.changeableD.different

(10;1.5,15 ), , With computers and Internet connections in so

many households, colleges, and businesses, people are emailing friends and relatives all the time-or talking to them in online chat rooms.It is(41) (cheap) than calling long distance, and a lot more convenient than waiting (42) Sunday for the telephone rates to drop.Students are e-mail- ing their professors to receive and discuss their

classroom assignments and(43) (submit) them.They are e-mailing classmates to discuss homework.They are also sharing information (44) concerts and sports events, as well as jokes and their philosophies of life.Despite the growing(45) (important) of

computers, however, there will always be (46) place and need for the personal letter.A hand- written note to a friend (47) a family mem- ber is the best way to communicate important thoughts.No matter(48) the content of the message, its real point is, I want you to know(49) I care about you.

This writing practice brings rewards that can't (50) (see) in bank accounts, but only in the suc-cess of human relationships.:(,40)(15;2,30)A

Florence Nightingale was born in a rich family. When she was young she took lessons in music and drawing and read great books.She also traveled a great deal with her mother and father.As a child she felt that visiting sick people was both a duty and a pleasure.She enjoyed helping

them.At last her mind was made up.I'm going to be a nurse, she decided.Nursing isn't the right work for a lady, her father told her.Then I will make it so, she smiled.And she went to learn nursing in Germany and France. When she returned to England Florence started a

nursing home for women.During the Crimean War in 1854,she went with a group of thirty-eight nurses to the front hospitals. What they saw there was terrible.Dirt and death were everywhere to be seen and smelled.The offi- cer there did not want any woman to tell him how

to run a hospital, either.But the brave nurses went to work.Florence used her own money and some from friends to buy clothes, beds, medicines and food for the men.Her only pay was in smiles from the lips of dying soldiers.But they were more than enough

for this kind woman.After war she returned to Eng- land and was honoured for her services by Queen Victoria.But Florence said that her work had just begun.She raised money to build the Nightingale Home for Nurses in London.She also wrote a book on public health, which was printed in several countries.

Florence Nightingale died at the age of ninety, still trying to serve others through her work as a nurse. Indeed, it is because of her that we honour nurses today.51.When she was a child Florence .A.loved to travel very much

B.knew what her duty in life wasC.loved to help the sick peopleD.was most interested in music and drawing52.What made Florence determined to become a nurse?A.Her father's support.

B.Her desire to help the sick.C.Her education in Germany and France.D.Her knowledge in Germany and France.53.During the Crimean War in 1854, Florence served in the front hospital where .A.she earned a little money

B.work was very difficultC.few soldiers died because of her workD.she didn't have enough food and clothes54.Why was Florence honoured by Queen Victori- a?A.She built the Nightingale Home for Nurses.

B.She wrote a book on public health.C.She worked all her life as a nurse.D.She did a great deal of work during the Crimean War.BLiterature arts in high school were complete suffer-

ing for me.Especially as a boy, I hated reading sto- ries and novels that my English teacher picked only to look up vocabulary words and have a large number of conversations about a story I didn't even understand.One day, my teacher hit the nail on the head with The Gift of the Magi by O.Henry.I was deeply impressed by the story, and it encour-

aged me to read more of his works.O.Henry is known for the twisted () endings in his stories that leave the readers puzzled and surprised.His talent for details is almost poetic and can make the readers feel as if they are part of the story.The Gift of the Magi is about a young married

couple who sacrifice their only two worthy belong- ings to buy each other a Christmas present.This sto- ry is about true love and sacrifice.Now, many years later, I still remember this story.The Furnished Room is a horrific story about the love and devotion from a young man, who searches every corner of a room looking for a woman he is desperate to find.

The story is tragic.The Ransom of Red Chief is ac- tually a humorous story about a kidnapping () that has gone all wrong.A Retrieved Reformation tells the story of thief Jimmy Valentine who de- cides to give up his criminal career and do good deeds, which is moving.These are just a few of the many, many O.Henry's stories that I've enjoyed

over these years.O.Henry was born William Sydney Porter on September 11, 1862.His first story, The Miracle of Lava was published under his pen name, O.Henry. He published 115 stories, 21 of which were pub- lished in the columns of New York World.He died

of illness on June 5, 1910.In honor of O.Henry's contributions to American literature, the Society of Arts and Letters, in 1918, founded the O.Henry Memorial Award to be awarded annually to the au- thor of the best American short story.55.Before reading The Gift of the Magi, the author

.A.had great interest in literature art lessonsB.hated reading all kinds of stories and novelsC.was unsatisfied with his teacher's teaching methodsD.experienced pain from not understanding reading

materials 56.Which is NOT one of the features of O.Henry's novels according to the author?A.Poetic details.B.Unexpected endings.C.Complex hard-to-read words.

D.Descriptions that make readers feel right on the scene.57.Which story of the following is a sad one?A.The Gift of the Magi.B.The Furnished Room.C.The Ransom of Red Chief.

D.A Retrieved Reformation.58.What can we learn from the last paragraph? A.He died in an accident at the age of 58.B.A literature award is named after his pen name.C.The Gift of the Magi was his first published sto- ry.

D.Most of his stories were published in New York World.CThis year some twenty-three hundred teenagers from all over the world will spend about ten months in US homes through an exchange pro-

gram.They will attend US schools, meet US teenagers, and form impressions of the real Ameri- can teenagers.At the same time, about thirteen hun- dred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understand- ing of the rest of the world.

Fred, nineteen, spent last year in Germany with George's family.In turn, George's son, Mike, spent a year in Fred's home in America.Fred, knew little German when he arrived, but after two month's study, the language began to come to him.School was completely different from what he

had expected-much harder.They took fourteen sub- jects instead of the six that are usual in the United States.Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time.In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.

At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea.I suppose I should criticize American schools, he said.It is far too easy by our level.But I have to say that I like it very much.In Germany we do nothing but study.Here we take part in many outside activities.I think that maybe your schools are better in training

for citizens.There ought to be some middle ground between the two.59.How many teenagers will take part in the ex- change programme this year?A.Twenty three hundred. B.Thirteen hundred.

C.Over three thousand.D.Less than two thousand.60.The whole exchange program is mainly to .A.help teenagers in other countries know the real America

B.send students in America to travel in GermanyC.let students learn something about other coun- triesD.have teenagers learn new languages61.What did Fred and Mike agree on?A.America has better traffic.

B.German schools were harder than American schools.C.Americans and Germans were both friendly.D.There were more cars on the streets in America.62.What is particular in American schools?A.There is some middle ground between the two

teaching buildings.B.There are a lot of after-school activities.C.Students usually take 14 subjects in all.D.Students go outside to enjoy themselves in a car.D

For my daughter's 19th birthday in December, we bought her tickets to go and see Linkin Park, as they were playing in our city in the UK.We didn't really have the money, but we knew how much they meant to her.The night before the concert, she was like a kid at

Christmas and couldn't sleep.It was good to see her so happy and excited.She and her best friend went together.When they returned after midnight with T-shirts, lots of videos and pictures, they talked happily about what a fantastic concert that Linkin Park had

given.We knew that the money had been well spent.Still full of excitement from the night before, they decided to go to the shopping center on the other side of the city the next day.Later that day when they returned, they came and gave my husband and

me a gift each.On each present were the words because you are the best mom / dad in the world . When we asked her why she had bought us gifts, her answer was simply just because I love you.She told us she just wanted to show that she appre-

ciated () us.This wasn't something new from our daughter.She had always given us a gift when she wanted to show her feelings, and each gift was always a welcome surprise.It could be anything that wasn't expensive, but it didn't matter; it was the feeling and love behind it that was important.

63.For her 19th birthday, the girl .A.got tickets to a concertB.invited Linkin Park to her homeC.had a big party with her friendsD.was given a lot of birthday presents

66 Nearly 50% of students say they are wor- ried about robbery on the way to and from school. Now in many big cities in China, some schools have taught an unusual lesson: self-protection.Stu- dents like this lesson because there are no exams or boring classes.And they can learn how to save lives and know how to stop danger before it really

happens.Chen Haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No.25 Middle School, gives young students advice on how they should deal with danger.If you are robbedKeep calm.If you cannot cry for help or run away, give the robber your money. 67

If you are in a traffic accidentIf a car hurts you, you should remember the car number.If it is a bicycle, try to call your parents be- fore you let the rider go.68 If it is raining hard and there is lightningDon't stay in high places and stay away from trees.

When there is a fireGet away as fast as you can.Put wet things on your body and try to find an exit. 69If someone is drowningIf you can't swim, don't get into the water.Cry out for help.

70 Take care of yourself at all times!A.Do not take the lift.B.Never let a stranger into your house.C.It is important to stay with your parents all the time.D.Remember that danger is never as far away as

you think.E.This is because you don't know how seriously you are hurt.F.Try to remember what the robber looks like and tell the police later.G.According to a new survey, students' safety has

become a big problem.:(,35)(10;1,10 )One day, I bought some banana in a shop.The

shopkeeper is passing me the change, but I wasn't ready for it and the coin dropped into the floor. Sorry, Madam, he said while he was picking up.I was confused that why he said sorry to me.Another time, I step on a man's foot at the en- trance to a cinema.At the same time, we either said sorry.Slowly, I get to know that when some-

thing unpleasant happens in daily life, the British don't care much about who is right and wrong.Per- haps that is because I seldom see people quarrel on the buses or streets in Britain.(25),
