Passage One (Violence Can Do Nothing to Diminish Race Prejudice)
In some countries where racial prejudice is acute, violence has so come to be taken for granted as a means of solving differences, that it is not even questioned. There are countries where the white man imposes his rule by brute force; there are countries where the black man protests by setting fire to cities and by looting and pillaging. Important people on both sides, who would in other respects appear to be reasonable men, get up and calmly argue in favor of violence – as if it were a legitimate solution, like any other. What is really frightening, what really fills you with despair, is the realization that when it comes to the crunch, we have made no actual progress at all. We may wear collars and ties instead of war-paint, but our instincts remain basically unchanged. The whole of the recorded history of the human race, that tedious documentation of violence, has taught us absolutely nothing. We have still not learnt that violence never solves a problem but makes it more acute. The sheer horror, the bloodshed, the suffering mean nothing. No solution ever comes to light the morning after when we dismally contemplate the smoking ruins and wonder what hit us.
The truly reasonable men who know where the solutions lie are finding it harder and herder to get a hearing. They are despised, mistrusted and even persecuted by their own kind because they advocate such apparently outrageous things as law enforcement. If half the energy that goes into violent acts were put to good use, if our efforts were directed at cleaning up the slums and ghettos, at improving living-standards and providing ecation and employment for all, we would have gone a long way to arriving at a solution. Our strength is sapped by having to mop up the mess that violence leaves in its wake. In a well-directed effort, it would not be impossible to fulfill the ideals of a stable social programme. The benefits that can be derived from constructive solutions are everywhere apparent in the world around us. Genuine and lasting solutions are always possible, providing we work within the framework of the law.
Before we can even begin to contemplate peaceful co-existence between the races, we must appreciate each other』s problems. And to do this, we must learn about them: it is a simple exercise in communication, in exchanging information. 『Talk, talk, talk,』 the advocates of violence say, 『all you ever do is talk, and we are none the wiser.』 It』s rather like the story of the famous barrister who painstakingly explained his case to the judge. After listening to a lengthy argument the judge complained that after all this talk, he was none the wiser. 『Possible, my lord,』 the barrister replied, 『none the wiser, but surely far better informed.』 Knowledge is the necessary prerequisite to wisdom: the knowledge that violence creates the evils it pretends to solve.

寫作方法與文章大意
作者主要以對比的手法寫出了暴力是有些國家用以解決種族差異的公認方法,這是人本性沒有進步的表現,真正理智的人提出了法制才是解決問題的唯一途徑,而這些人遭人輕視、迫害。作者指出如果我們把使用暴力的一半精力放在消除貧民窟,改善生活水平,提供教育和就業,清除暴力造成的後果,也就是通過對它以法治理是能真正解決種族問題的。盡管這些暴力者採取充耳不聞的態度。
答案詳解
1. B 暴力難以消除種族偏見。文章一開始就提出有些國家種族偏見嚴重,而暴力卻是公認的一種解決方法。白人採用暴力鎮壓,黑人以防火、掠搶為反抗。而雙方的大人物平靜地論及暴力,似乎這是一種合法的解決方案。作者就此指出人類的進步只在於表面――衣飾等,人類的本能沒有改變。整個有記錄歷史的文件沒有教會人類任何東西。這是真正令人可怕的事件。
第二段論及真正有理智的懂得解決方案所在的人鼓吹法制,人們不停。他們反而收到輕視、迫害。作者就此提出假設,答出真正的解決方案嗜法制,以法治理。
第三段進一步說明「交流、對話」是了解雙方問題的前提,即使暴力者不同意,但知道暴力製造它假裝要解決的罪惡,是智慧聰明的必要前提。
A.鼓吹暴力。C.雙方重要人物都把暴力作為合法的解決方案。D. 人類的本性是嗜暴性。
2. B沒有什麼。第一段中就明確提出整個人類有記錄歷史又長又臭的暴力文件記錄,一點都沒有教給我們任何東西。
A.暴力解決不了任何事情。C.殺戮(流血)沒有任何意義。D.一切。
3. D在鼓吹法制方面有困難。答案在第二段,真正有理智的人鼓吹法制,遭到同類們的輕視、不信任和迫害。他們發現要人傾聽他們的意見越來越困難。
A.人們不聽。B.遭人輕視。C.遭人迫害。這三項都包含在D項內。
4. C聽後無所得。None the wiser一點也不比以前聰明(這是按字面翻譯)。實際就是C項。
A.在傾聽別人上他一點也不聰明。B.他和以前一個樣。D.他聽不懂論點。
5. A法制。第二段最後一句,如果我們在法律的構架中進行工作,真正的持久的解決總是能實現的。第二段第二句,他們遭到迫害是因為他們鼓吹法制這種顯然令人不能容忍的事。
B.知識。C.非暴力。D.處理暴力帶來的混亂。

When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means 「rich coast」 in Spanish.

Christian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java. Many people on the island had a disease called beri?鄄beri. He was going there to try and find a cure.
At first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ (細菌) caused beri?鄄beri. He raised some chickens. He didn』t eat them, but made experiments on them. The local people were quite surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate — refined white rice (精煉米). When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery — that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (維生素). The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person』s food.
Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins from the food they eat. If they don』t, they can also take vitamin pills.
61. The underlined word 「cure」 in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.
A. a medical treatment B. a kind of vitamin

C ★★
America is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.
Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily.
Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don』t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.
For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!
66. The writer of this passage must be ______.
A. an American B. a Chinese
C. a professor D. a student
67. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.
B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.
C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.
D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.
68. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.
A. warmly welcomed at the airport
B. offered a ride to his home
C. treated hospitably at his home
D. treated to dinner in a restaurant
69. The underlined words 「generous with our time」 in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.
A. strict with time B. serious with time
C. careful with time D. willing to spend time
70. A suitable title for this passage would probably be 「______」.
A. Friendships between Chinese
B. Friendships between Americans
C. Americans』 hospitality
D. Americans』 and Chinese』s views of friendships
D ★★★
The other day I heard a few local musicians talking:
「I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They can』t even understand a bit of music.」
「I』m never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us.」
But, one younger musician said, 「There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month, and I』m trying to find other places to play. I』m also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.」
I』ve heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are.
Attitudes are important. Whether they』re positive or negative, they』re rubbing off on you. If you』re around people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians, or blame (責怪) others, and you play the role of victim (受害者), chances are you will start to as well. So it』s time to take a look at the people you call 「friends」.
This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you hang out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard (標准) for yourself and don』t become friends with people who fall below that standard.
Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it. Ask if they will help you get the work you』re looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.
71. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. A friend in need is a friend indeed
B. How to make friendship last for ever
C. You are who your friends are
D. Friends are the most important in one』s success
72. The underlined sentence 「they』re rubbing off on you」 in Paragraph 6 means ______.
A. they』ll push you ahead
B. they』ll influence you
C. they』ll cover your shortcomings
D. they』ll help you achieve your goal
73. The musicians』 words at the beginning are written mainly to show ______.
A. the musicians』 living conditions are quite poor
B. people have poor taste in music
C. people have different attitudes towards the same thing
D. young people have greater chances of succeeding
74. By taking the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7, you can ______.
A. improve a lot in making more friends

Norm Pethrick, a 36-year-old man in Australia』s northern city Darwin, was praised on Thursday for jumping onto a crocodile』s back to save his wife Wendy at Litchfield National Park, a popular tourist spot southwest of Darwin, a local newspaper reported.
Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (撲), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater.
Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free.
Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds (傷口) in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one of her fingers.
「This could have been a fatal and tragic situation,」 said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report.
He said Ms Pethrick was saved by her husband』s 「quick and diligent actions」.

There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.
Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.
Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.
Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called 「What Color is Your Parachute (降落傘)?」 by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (職業) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.
Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.

English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world』s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.
However, let』s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren』t sweet, are meat.
We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探討它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.
And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don』t fing, grocers don』t groce, and hammers don』t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn』t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?
How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?
English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That』s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看見的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.
71. According to the passage ______.
A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different things
B. there should be egg in an eggplant
C. pineapples are the apples on the pine tree
D. boxing rings should be round
72. Which of the following is the correct plural?
A. Beeth. B. Geese. C. Meese. D. Tooth.
73. Which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning?
A. A wise man and a wise guy.
B. Overlook and oversee.
C. Quite a lot and quite a few.
D. Hot as hell and cold as hell.
74. The underlined words 「wind up」 in the last paragraph probably mean 「______」.
A. blow B. roll up C. get hurt D. finish
75. Through the many paradoxes in the English language, the writer wants to show that human beings are ______.
A. clever B. crazy C. lazy D. ll

我剛才也沒注意多少字呀,結構粘貼了很多,系統提示我內容太多,我就刪掉了一些。閱讀還有很多,你要是用的話就和我聯系。
⑷ 求大大推薦一本高中英語完形填空與閱讀理解的練習書。
英語不是數學,不是你練完型,完型分數就會上去的,閱讀也一樣,沒有背考點的做題等於浪費時間,背了該背的東西,不做題,照樣可以拿高分。
我建議你現階段就把高中所有課後單詞都背完,總共就3500詞,每天背100個,也就一個多月就可以背完第一輪,之後只要循環復習循環記憶,不怎麼花時間就可以把單詞記得很牢了。
可以這樣來背,睡前1個小時用來背單詞,剛醒來的20分鍾用來復習前晚背過的內容,早讀課復習10分鍾,午飯後復習10分鍾,晚飯前復習10分鍾,這樣一背四復習就可以比較好的記憶率
語法不是高中的重點,英語之所以沒有突破就是因為你沒有意識到高中英語和初中英語學習方法上的顯著不同。從今年的各地的考點命中情況來看,今年部分卷子的難度普遍提高很多,考點的比例比以前提高很多,純語法題降低到3分,所以學習就要更重視考點。
想要各個題型都得高分,就要抓住高中英語的學習方法,高中英語和初中不同,初中只要背單詞,背語法,做題,就能考高分。但是高中如果還這樣做的話,分數就很難突破。因為高中英語純語法題不超過7.5分,大部分的得分都和考點相關。所以高中英語的正確學習方法是,整理擴展記憶考點。
所謂考點具體講主要是片語,短語,固定用法,固定句式,固定搭配,以及一些片語化的語法內容,比如冠詞,形容詞,介詞,分詞這些內容都必須要具體片語化才能考,語法書上只有模稜兩可的幾句話。整理成考點三四千個。還有就是關於從句有涉有及到一些要點和口訣。整個高中總共有1.5萬個考點。
這些考點可以涉及到卷子的各個題型,滲透到聽力,單選,完型,閱讀,寫作里頭,如果不會的話,丟分肯定是比較厲害的。有的時候這些考點作為選項,要求考生能理解或者能搭配。更多的時候直接作為理解點出現在題目里,文章中要求考生知道意思。
你想像一下做完型是不是碰到很多單詞都是帶著介詞的,而且很多選項讓你選介詞的?這些都是考點,一個英語單詞帶了介詞十有八九意思就和字面上的不一樣了,這個時候你再按字面的意思去理解自然就中了出題人的圈套了。
完型的考法是很傳統的,一部分的考點內容作為理解點穿插在句子中,一部分直接作為選項,如果考點沒有背,很容易把考點拆開來按照字面的意思胡亂理解,那麼完型就難免要丟分。
閱讀也是考察考點的重要題型,我做閱讀一定是先讀文章的,因為我有背考點,而且高考閱讀出題,一定都是圍繞帶有考點的句子來出題的,所以我邊做卷子,變劃帶考點的句子,讀完文章大概也知道可能問什麼問題了,解題的時候自然不會被誤導。
聽力里頭考點不是出現在聽力原文中,就是出現在題目里,總是不會用相同的詞,但是意思是一樣的表達,只有背過考點,才能在短暫的時間內理解意思,選出對應答案,否則只聽到單詞,出卷人放一個中心詞的近義詞在選項里頭,你就中圈套了。
作文很多時候出卷人在引導考生作答的時候就設計好了一些表達必須用到一些片語短語,如果你心領神會知道是哪些片語短語,正好用上,在內容上就肯定能得比較好的分數,加上有練字,字寫得漂亮分數就自然高了。
任務型書寫是閱讀和填空的綜合,首先閱讀里頭出現的單詞,片語,短語的意思你都要懂,其次,閱讀里頭的單詞你要能轉換成片語和短語,或者片語和短語你要能轉換成單詞填入空中,這對於大家的英語能力要求很高,也是需要大量整理和記憶考點的。
語法填空題一般有三分之一是單詞題,三分之一是時態語態題目,還有三分之一就是考固定搭配,片語,短語的記憶,也是最難的部分,所以要拿到這三分之一的難點分數和別人拉開分數,還是要背考點。
改錯,一般來說格式很固定,1題正確項考兩種表達法都正確。2個聯繫上下文,一般就是時態和語態題,7個考片語和短語的搭配。一般來說丟分就丟在除聯繫上下文外的這8個題型上,這8題都和考點有關,你沒背過分數自然就低了。
所以不管你的省份現在考什麼題型,高考如何改革,題型怎麼變,從目前出現的各類題型來看 ,考點是貫穿各個題型的,也可以在任何題型中出現,所以必須好好記憶。單選就更不用說了
現在高考卷難度不大,純語法題都是送分題,不必把太多的精力放在語法上,語法不是高中英語的學習重點。高考出卷人默認大家考上高中語法都沒有大問題,所以是間接的在句子中涉及一定的語法,不要求掌握,只要考生能讀懂意思就ok。從我在廖唯偉吧發的各個省份的命中率分析報告上也可以看得出來。
英語不是數學,一個勁的拚命做題是不會有任何效果的,反而還浪費時間。你現在英語方面的問題,主要的原因是你還在用初中的方法,背單詞,做題。這樣對於高中是不夠的。高考英語涉及到非常多的考點,這些考點貫穿於各個題型之中,必須要總結記憶才能提高分數,而且對於各個題型可以一通百通
雖然考點很多,但是涉及的單詞只有高中最重點的2000多個單詞,所以背考點的過程又可以進一步加強重點單詞的記憶。解決你單詞會認不會寫的問題。同時考點看得懂了,自然能增加對閱讀題里頭涉及的考點的敏感性,閱讀題的題目都是圍繞這些帶有考點的句子來出的,對於提高解題正確性肯定是幫助很大。
考點1萬多個看起來有點嚇人,但是比單詞好背很多,因為考點很具有邏輯,有邏輯的東西背起來就很快,所以記憶力很差的人背考點多多少少也會記住很多內容。你的記憶力其實也不差,所以記住肯定沒有問題,看你有沒努力。
考點是要自己好好整理擴展的。在整理考點方面,如果你願意自己花時間自己整理的話,那麼這樣的筆記當然肯定是最好的。只要有毅力和耐心,我的這種學習模式,是完全可以復制的。在整理考點上可以模仿我的高考筆記的整理方法。准備一本牛津英漢雙解高階詞典。
可以模仿我的筆記的整理思路 1 課後單詞所有在牛津中有涉及到固定用法的內容全部整理出來 2 錯題猜題課堂提到的考點整理出來,老師說的考點務必在牛津查一遍,因為必然有很多錯誤 3 平時閱讀時遇到的考點內容加以整理 4 整理可以片語化的語法點如介詞冠詞分詞動詞,還有可以口訣化從句相關語法內容
現在開始整理考點的話,時間上面的壓力有點大,但是以後整理就肯定來不及了。我在高中的時候整理自己的英語筆記,把15000多個考點整理完,差不多花了兩千多個小時,每次5個小時,400多個晚上,所以造成了自己偏科比較嚴重。但是有代價自然也就會有收獲,單單英語一科就可以贏別人三四十分。
也就在於整理考點這種學習方法是能夠非常扎實的掌握這些語言點的。而且這些內容是高考要考的,在有產出的事情上投入大量的時間,自然最後回報的東西要更多。只是我覺得如果當時我花了兩千多個小時能夠省下來放在其他科目上的話那麼總分可能還會更高。只不過當時沒有這個條件,沒人有這個想法。
當然如果你也可以在背我整理的筆記的基礎上再消化,並且運用我的方法整理自己的錯題考點,這樣你可以省掉一大筆整理考點的時間,同時也可以根據自己的情況背一些自身缺漏的考點,效果應該會更好,畢竟高中剩下時間就有可能贏得分數。
我就是用這種方法,特別用功的整理記憶,所以才以非常差的記憶力考到除作文部分以外滿分的成績的,總分145分。我的用戶里頭最高分的那個既是天才,又能像吊絲一樣努力,所以最後考了148分,差一分就可以當省英語單科狀元了。所以你只要好好努力突破高分也是有機會的。150分卷你至少要定目標到120以上

You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞擊) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead!Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks.There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床墊). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar!But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman' s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.
Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (懸崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落傘) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stuntgirls tool

Activity which was almost unknown to the learned in the early days of the history, while ring the fifteenth century the term "reading" undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Only ring the nineteenth century did silent reading become popular.
One should be careful, however, of supposing that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is distraction (分散注意力) to others. Examination of reasons connected with the historical development of silent reading shows that it became the usual mode of reading for most alt reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.
The last century saw a graal increase in literacy (讀寫能力) and thus in the number of readers. As readers increased, so the number of listeners dropped, and thus there was some rection in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the popularity of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, trains and offices, where reading aloud would disturb other readers in a way.
Towards the end of the century there was still heated argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in ecation. However, whatever its advantages, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media (媒介) on the one hand and by books and magazines for a specialized readership on the other.
By the end of the century students were being advised to have some new ideas of books and to use skills in reading them which were not proper, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social, cultural, and technological developments in the century had greatly changed what the term "reading" referred to.
1. Why was reading aloud common before the nineteenth century?
A. Because silent reading had not been discovered.
B. Because there were few places for private reading.
C. Because few people could read for themselves.
D. Because people depended on reading for enjoyment.
2. The development of silent reading ring the nineteenth century showed .
A. a change in the position of literate people
B. a change in the nature of reading
C. an increase in the number of books
D. an increase in the average age of readers
3. Ecationalists are still arguing about _________.
A. the importance of silent reading
B. the amount of information provided by books and newspapers
C. the effects of reading on health
D. the value of different types of reading material
4. What is the writer of this passage attempting to do?
A. To explain how present day reading habits developed.
B. To change people's way to read.
C. To show how reading methods have improved.
D. To encourage the growth of reading.

In some ways, the United States has made some progress. Fires no longer destroy 18,000 buildings as they did in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, or kill half a town of 2,400 people, as they did the same night in Peshtigo, Wisconsin. Other than the Beverly Hill Supper Club fire in Kentucky in 1977, it has been four decades since more than 100 Americans died in a fire.
But even with such successes, the United States still has one of the worst fire death rates in the world. Safety experts say the problem is neither money nor technology, but the indifference(無所謂) of a country that just will not take fires seriously enough.
American fire departments are some of the world's fastest and best-equipped. They have to be. The United States has twice Japan's population, and 40 times as many fires. It spends far less on preventing fires than on fighting them. And American fire -safety lessons are aimed almost entirely at children, who die in large numbers in fires but who, against popular beliefs, start very few of them.
Experts say the error is an opinion that fires are not really anyone's fault. That is not so in other countries, where both public ecation and the law treat fires as either a personal failing or a crime(罪行). Japan has many wood houses; of the 48 fires in world history that burned more than 10,000 buildings, Japan has had 27. Punishment for causing a big fire can be as severe as life imprisonment.
In the United States, most ecation dollars are spent in elementary schools. But, the lessons are aimed at too limited a number of people; just 9 percent of all fire deaths are caused by children playing with matches.
The United States continues to depend more on technology than laws or social pressure. There are smoke detectors in 85 percent of all homes. Some local building laws now require home sprinklers (噴水裝置). New heaters and irons shut themselves off if they are tipped.
1. The reason why so many Americans die in fires is that _____.
A. they took no interest in new technology
B. they did not pay great attention to preventing fires
C. they showed indifference to fighting fires
D. they did not spend enough money on fire equipment
2. It can be inferred from the passage that______.
A. fire safety lessons should not be aimed only at American children
B. American children have not received enough ecation of fire safety lessons
C. Japan is better equipped with fire equipment than the United States
D. America's large population leads to more fires
3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. There has been no great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that leads to high death rate.
B. There have been several great fires in the USA in recent 40 years that lead to high death rate.
C. There has been only one great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that led to high death rate.
D. The fire in Kentucky in 1977 made only a few people killed.

Nuclear power's(核能的) danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be described in one word; radiation(輻射).
Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected (探測) by human senses. It can't be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we can't detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. Similarly, we can't sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things.
At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells (細胞) in important organs (器官). But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright. Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproce themselves in an unusual way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.
This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the knowledge of the person at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated(放射治療) and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or easy to get serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.
Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth.
1. According to the passage, the danger of nuclear power lies in __________.
A. nuclear mystery B. radiation detection
C. radiation level D. nuclear radiation
2. Radiation can lead to serious results even at the lowest level ________.
A. when it kills few cells
B. if it damages few cells
C. though the damaged cells can repair themselves
D. unless the damaged cells can reproce themselves
3. Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can _____.
A. kill large numbers of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediately
B. damage cells which may grow into cancer years later
C. affect the healthy growth of our younger generation
D. lead to all of the above results
4. Which of the following can be best inferred from the passage?
A. The importance of protection from radiation cannot be overemphasized (過分強調).
B. The mystery about radiation remains unsolved.
C. Cancer is mainly caused by radiation.
D. Radiation can hurt those who do not know about its danger.

Today is the date of that afternoon in April a year ago when I first saw the strange and attractive doll(玩具娃娃)in the window of Abe Sheftel's toy shop on Third Avenue near Fifteenth Street, just around the corner from my office, where the plate on the door reads. Dr Samuel Amory. I remember just how it was that day: the first sign of spring floated across the East River, mixing with the soft - coal smoke from the factories and the street smells of the poor neighbourhood. As I turned the corner on my way to work and came to Sheftel's, I was made once more known of the poor collection of toys in the sty window, and I remembered the coming birthday of a small niece of mine in Cleveland, to whom I was in the habit of sending small gifts. Therefore, I stopped and examined the window to see if there might be anything suitable, and looked at the collection of unattractive objects--a red toy fire engine, some lead soldiers, cheap baseballs, bottles of ink, pens, yellowed envelopes, and advertisements for soft - drinks. And thus it was that my eyes finally came to rest upon the doll stored away in one corner, a doll with the strangest, most charming expression on her face. I could not wholly make her out, e to the shadows and the film of st through which I was looking, but I was sure that a deep impression had been made upon me as though I had run into a person, as one does sometimes with a stranger, with whose personality one is deeply impressed.
1. What made an impression on the author?

Technology is the application (應用)of knowledge to proction. Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output. This has meant more proction and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available (有用的)to us, by means of modern farming machinery and animalbreeding techniques, and has extended our life span via()medical technology.
Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life? In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The advancement of technology depends upon research and development, and the latest statistics (統計) show that the united States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually(每年) into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources (少的資源) we may well find technological substitutes (代用品) for many of them through our research programs.
Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of proction (land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology. When we need new skills on techniques in medicine, people will start developing new technology to meet those needs. As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be invented. Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living.

The volcano is one of the most surprising frightening forces of nature. Maybe you have seen pictures of these「fireworks」of nature. Sometimes when a volcano erupts, a very large wall of melted rock moves down the side of a mountain. It looks like a 「river of tire.」Sometimes volcanoes explode, throwing the melted rock and ashes(灰)high into the air. But where does this melted rock come from?
The earth is made up of many layers(層). The top layer that we see is called the crust. Under the crust are many layers of hard rock. But far, far beneath the crust whose rock is so hot, that it is soft. In some places it even melts. The melted rock is called magma. Sometimes the magma breaks out to the surface through cracks(爆裂聲)in the crust. These cracks are volcanoes.
Most people think of mountains when they think of volcanoes. But not every mountain is a volcano. A volcano is simply the opening in the earth from which the magma escapes. The hot magma, or lava as it is called, cols and builds up on the surface of the earth. Over thousands of years, this pile of cooled lava can grow to be very, very big. For example, the highest mountain in Africa, Kilimanjaro, is a volcano. It towers more than 16,000 feet above the ground around it.
1.The underlined word「erupts」means .
A. moves down B. breaks away
C. builds up D. suddenly throws out lava
2.Which words in the passage have the same meaning as 「melted rock」?
