Since 1998, Li has spent most of her time traveling in Tibet. Many years have passed and her foot has touched almost every corner of Tibet.Lis first trip to Tibet was encouraged by her desire for individual freedom. She entered Tibet along the Yunnan-Tibetan road. Although she couldnt even speak a word of Tibetan language, it did not become a problem when she communicated with local people. “To me, they are free, original, simple and happy. It seems to me that people should live in this way, singing while working, dancing while living,” Li said.Li keeps her memory of Tibet by films, articles and photos. It is her desired dream that she will become a part of Tibet someday. She spends ten months in a year traveling somewhere in Tibet, and for the rest of the two months she stays in her rented room arranging her diaries and tape recordings. She has learned to make good use of every penny and keep her cost of living within 300 yuan a month.Li has shown great courage in the adventures. Many times she traveled alone in deserted areas in terrible climate. She learned to enjoy life and to follow her own heart.“I felt very close to death many times when I was alone and tired out, surrounded by extreme coldness and quietness. After having survived the difficulties, I find more beauty in life. I have learned to go on with my dream,” she said.41. This passage mainly talks about_.A. the travel of Li Wan in TibetB. the impression of Li Wan on TibetC. the reason why Li Wan came to TibetD. the challenges Li Wan has experienced in Tibet42. During the adventures in Tibet Li Wan learnt _.A. to enjoy the beauty of natureB. to follow her heart to live her lifeC. to get on well with the people thereD. to make as much money as she could43. According to the passage, Li Wan can be described as_.A. prettyB. crazyC. proudD. determinedBThe sandstorm has a bad effect on human beings, but it also brings some good results. There wouldnt have been our Chinese nation if there had been no sandstorms. Sandstorms have existed for millions of years, while the written history of human beings has lasted only 5,000 years. The Loess Plateau（黄土高原） was formed by sandstorms over millions of years. The Yellow River, while moving through the Loess Plateau, carries a great deal of sand and has formed the North China Plain. The loess Plateau is regarded as the place where Chinese civilization（文明） began. If there had been no Loess Plateau, the North China Plain wouldnt have existed, nor would have the Chinese civilization.Sandstorms dont bring only loess to human beings. When sandstorms move from central Asia to the Pacific areas, they carry some minerals into the air, which will later fall into the ocean in the form of rain. The minerals will help some planktons（浮游动物）to live on. The planktons are eaten by small shellfish, and the fish live on these small shellfish, and fish are eaten by humans. This forms a biological chain which shows a relation between humans and nature.So it is unrealistic to say we should stop sandstorms. What we possibly do is to reduce their bad effect as much as we can.44. The underlined sentence in the first paragraph probably means_.A. There are many sandstorms in ChinaB. the land of China was made by sandstormsC. sandstorms helped to form Chinese civilizationD. the history of sandstorms was longer than that of Chinese nation45.

Minerals are the main food for planktons and small shellfish.D. Sandstorms carry minerals into the air and fish live on these minerals.46. The passage mainly talks about _.A. the history of sandstormsB. what the biological chain isC. how the Loess Plateau formedD. the good effects of sandstormsCTech-Camp6 Devon Road, Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong a technology day camp for students 1-17About Tech-CampTech-Camp is a day camp with a focus on computers and electronics technology.

I was with my father on a business-and-pleasure trip, and in our free hours we were having a wonderful time.“I wish Mother were here.” I said.“If your mother had come with us,” said Father, “it would have been wonderful to show her around.”He had visited Denmark when he was a young man, I asked him, “How long is it since you were here?”“Oh, about thirty years. I remember being in this very inn, by the way.” He looked around, remembering. “Those were pleasant and enjoyable days” He stopped suddenly, and I saw that his face was pale. I followed his eyes and looked across the room to a woman who was setting drinks before some customers. She might have been pretty once, but now she was fat and her hair was untidy. “Do you know her?” I asked.“I did once,” he said.The woman came to our table. “Drinks?” she asked.“Well have beer,” I said. She nodded and went away.“I couldnt believe it ! How she has changed! Thank heaven she didnt recognize me,” Father said in a low voice, cleaning his face with a handkerchief. “I knew her before I met your mother,” he went on. “I was a student, on a tour. She was a lovely young girl, very graceful. I fell madly in love with her, and she with me.”“Does Mother know about her?” I said suddenly, without thinking.“Of course,” Father said gently. He looked at me a little anxiously. I felt embarrassed (尴尬) for him.I said, “ Dad, you dont have to”“Your mother would tell you if she were here. I dont want you wondering about this. I was a foreigner to her family. I depended on my father. If she had married me, she wouldnt have had any bright future. So her father was against our romance. When I wrote to my father that I wanted to get married he stopped posting money to me. And I had to go home. But I met the girl once more, and told her I would return to America, borrow enough money to get married on, and come back for her in a few months.”“We knew,” he continued, “that her father might stop and take away our letter, so we agreed that I would simply mail her a slip of paper with a date on it, the time she was to meet me at a certain place; then wed get married. Well, I went home, got the money and sent her the date. She received the note. She wrote me: Ill be there. But she wasnt. Then I found that she had been married about two weeks before, to a local innkeeper. She hadnt waited.”Then my father said, “Thank God she didnt. I went home, met your mother, and weve been completely happy. We often joke about youthful love romance. I suggest that one day you write a story about it.”The woman appeared with our beer.“You are from America?” she asked me.“Yes,” I said.She smiled happily, “A wonderful country, America.”“Yes, a lot of your countrymen have gone there. Did you ever think of it?”“Not me. Not now,” she said. “I thought so one time, a long time ago. But I stayed here. Its much better here.”We drank our beer and left. Outside I said, “Father, just how did you write that date on which she was to meet you?”He stopped, took out an envelope and wrote on it. “Like this,” he said. “12/11/13, which was, of course, December11th, 1913.”“No!” I said loudly. “It isnt in Denmark or any European country. Over here they write the day first, then the month. So that date wouldnt be December11th but the 12th of November!”Father passed his hand over his face. “So she was there!” he signed, “and it was because I didnt show up that she got married.” He was silent a while. “Well,” he said, “I hope shes happy. She seems to be.”As we continued walking I said, “Its a lucky thing it happened that way. You wouldnt have met Mother.”He put his arm around my shoulders, looked at me with a heartwarming smile, and said, “I was doubly lucky, young man, for otherwise I wouldnt have met you, either!”51. When Father recognized the waitress as his old love, he was _.A. very excitedB. really surprisedC. deeply regretfulD. quite happy52. When the woman went to fetch beer, Father cleaned his face with a handkerchief because_.A. he didnt want to meet her face to faceB. he was afraid of being recognizedC. he was sorry that he had lost herD. he was wondering w
