The old English language, or old English, is quite different from Modern English. If we do not study old English, we cant understand it. Some of the words are the same, but many are not used now. The story of the English language begins some time after the year 400 AD. At this time, some people came to England from North-west Europe. There were many groups of people. They were called Angles (盎格鲁人), Saxons（撒克逊人）and Jutes（朱特人） ，whose language, old English, is like some of the modern language of North-West Europe. In old English, the ending had many meanings. They showed past time and present time and many other things. In Modern English, most of these endings are gone. This is the biggest difference between Old and Modern English. 56. What does the first sentence of the passage mean? A. The story of English language often changes. B. English is a language that has changed a lot as time passes by. C. The old English language has changed into Modern English. D. The story of English language is one of how people change the language. 57. Old English has a story of _.

The sun heats up lakes, oceans, and other wet places on Earth. When the water gets warm enough, it changes into vapour(水蒸汽). Plants also give off lots of water vapour. Some of this water vapour cools off high in the sky and forms(形成) clouds. Then it falls back to Earth in a new place as rain or snow. This cycle happens over and over again. The ground can soak up(吸收) water like a sponge (海绵). If you could see this groundwater, it wouldnt look like a lake or river. The groundwater is mixed in with the rocks and sand that lie in layers(层) below Earths surface（表层，表面）. Groundwater moves along in very slow motion (移动). How slow? Maybe 1.5 kilometres in one century. Some of this water has been underground for thousands of years. And once groundwater is pumped out of the ground from a deep well（井） by people, it may take hundreds of years for another water to take its place. 60.In which order（顺序） does water go around Earth? a .Fall down as rain or snow. b. Heated up by the sun on lakes, oceans and other wet places. c. Cool off high in the sky. d. Form clouds. e. Change into vapour. A. dacbe B. becda C. caebd D. bceda 61. The groundwater seems to_. A. be just on the ground B. be pure water like that in a lake or river C. exist（存在） in rocks and sand D. flow along like rivers or streams 62. The underlined word “pumped” in the passage can be replaced by_. A. run B. pushed C. drawn D. picked 63. What conclusion（结论） can we draw from the passage? A. Groundwater can be quickly replaced by other water once pumped out. B. Groundwater is very valuable. C. Groundwater has nothing to do with human beings. D. Groundwater travel in an unknown way. C April 1st is a day on which, in some countries, people try to play tricks on others, if one succeeds in tricking somebody, one laughs and says, “April fool!” and then the person who has been tricked usually laughs too. On April 1st, a country bus was going along a winding road when it slowed down and stopped. The driver anxiously（焦虑的） turned switches（开关，转换器） and pressed buttons（按纽）, but nothing happened. Then he turned to the passengers with a worried look on his face and said. “This poor bus is getting old. It isnt going as well as it used to. Theres only one thing to do if we want to get home today. I shall count（数） three, and on the word three, I want you all to lean（倾斜） forward suddenly as hard as you can. That should get the bus started again, but if it doesnt, I am afraid there is nothing else I can do. Now, all of you lean back as far as you can in your seats and get ready.” The passengers all obediently(顺从地) pressed back against their seats and waited anxiously. The driver turned to the bus front and asked, “Are you ready?” The passengers hardly had enough breath（呼吸） to answer. “Yes.” “One! Two! Three!” counted the driver. The passengers all swung（摇晃）forward suddenly and the bus started up a great rate. The passengers breathed more easily and began to smile with relief（放松）. But their smiles turned to a surprised and then a delighted（愉悦的） laughter when the driver merrily cried, “April fool!” 64.The country bus stopped just because _. A. the petrol had run out B. there was something wrong with it C. it is getting old D. the driver wanted to play a trick on the passengers 65.The passengers tried their best to help the driver start the bus because _.

Here “a winding road” means _. A. the road was wide B. the road was straight C. there was a lot of wind in the road D. there was a lot of turns（转弯处） in the road 67. “That should get the bus started again.” Means the driver wanted to say _. A. the bus would start again if the passengers did what he asked them to do B. the bus would start again unless he got the bus repaired C. he could do nothing because the bus was old D. the passengers could make the bus start again if they learned back D Have you ever suddenly felt that someone you knew was in troubleand was he? Have you ever dreamed something that came true later? Maybe you have ESP（超感觉的知觉）. ESP stands for Extrasensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense（感觉）. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away. Heres an example. A woman was ironing(熨) clothes. Suddenly she screamed, “My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the chair!” Just then, a telegram（电报） came. The womans father died of a heart attack（心脏病）. He died sitting in a chair. There are thousands of stories like this one on record. Scientists are studying them to find out whatsbehind these strange mental（精 神的）messages. Heres another exampleone of hundreds of dreams that have come true. A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and a carriage（马车）came by. The driver said,“Theres room（空位） for one more.” The man felt the driver seemed dead, so he ran away. The next day,When the man was getting on a crowded bus, the bus driver said, “Theres room for one more.” Then the man saw that the drivers face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldnt get on The bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed（撞车） and burst into（突然发生）flames（火焰）. Everyone was killed! Some people say stories like this are coincidences（巧合）. Others, including some scientists, say that ESP is real. From studies Of ESP, we may someday learn more about the human mind. 68.

Hed have to wait a long time for that. He couldnt cut grass for their gardens because he had no tool to do the work with. Then Joe saw one of his classmates, Dick, delivering newspapers. “I could do that,” he thought. “Maybe I could even get a bicycle immediately（立即）.

Since this festival marks the beginning of the year, New Years Day is thought of as a perfect time for a “clean start” or New Years determination. People worldwide determine to act better in the year just beginning than in the year just ended. No day has ever been observed on so many different dates or in so many different ways.
