Schools are required to hold classes for about 180 days a year. Recently, schools in some areas of the country have begun investigating the idea of holding classes for four days a week. Classes would meet either Monday through Thursday, or Tuesday through Friday. Some schools in twelve American states are now using that schedule.The students still have the same number of total hours in class as before. But they attend school for a longer time on each of the four days. In the western state of Colorado, schools on the fourday week hold classes for sevenandonehalf hours a day for onehundredfortyfour days.Traditional schools meet for six hours a day for onehundredeighty days. Many schools on a fourday schedule offer special programs for students or teachers, trips or sports competitions on the fifth day.The main reason for shortening the school week is an economic one. Small school systems say they can save money by not providing meals or transportation for students on the fifth day. And they say research shows that students are not harmed by the shorter week.Opponents of fourday school week say the research is not clear on this.They say the fourday week has not been shown to improve students learning. And they say that three days off from school each week is too long a time away from class.36Whats the best title of the news report?AEducation ReformBShorter School WeekCShorter School DaysDDiscussion About School Time答案：B解析：主旨题。本文主要讲述美国部分地区的小学学校想将5天学习日改为4天的做法。37Compared with traditional schedule, what is the change about the school time?AClasses will be from Monday to Thursday.BSchool hours will be shortened.CStudents will be at school for a longer time each day with 3 days off each week.DStudents will go in for sports on Firday.答案：C解析：细节题。答案在文中第二段可以找到。38How many days off do students have during the school year according to the new schedule?A72.B135.C108.D114.答案：C解析：推理题。10831444或10831805。39What is inferred from the report?AAmerican schools pay for students meals and transportation.BAll Americans agree to the new schedule.CAmerican schools hold sports competitions on each Friday.DAmerican students study will become poorer and poorer.答案：A解析：推理题。答案可在文中第三段找到。BWhy was the Bastille important to the citizens of Paris? The building of the Bastille had been started in 1370 under Charles V. By the seventeenth century it had ceased (stopped) to be important for defence. Carding (红衣主教) Richelieu turned it into a prison.It was not an ordinary prison for common crimes (犯罪). Its huge door closed only on enemies of the King. The Bastilles workings were secret. Prisoners were taken to it in closed carriages. Soldiers on guard duty had to stand with their faces to the wall. No talking was allowed. Worst of all, a prisoner never knew if he would be there a day, a week, a year or forever. Only the Kings letter could set him free.Over the years the number of arrests (逮捕) by Kings letter had become smaller. By the time of its fall, most of the prisoners were writers who had written against the wrong deeds of the government. Voltaire, the famous French writer, spent a year there in 17171718, and another 12 days in 1726.For those who believed in free speech and free thinking, the Bastille stood for everything of evil (罪恶). The day it was broken into, only seven prisoners were found inside. However, the Bastille was hated by the people. It made one think of the Kings complete power.40Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?AThe Bastille used to be a prison all along.BThe building of the Bastille was started in the 14th century.CVoltaire was put into prison twice.DPrisoners and the guards on duty were not allowed to see each other.答案：A解析：细节题。B、C、D项可分别在文章第一、三、二段找到相应依据。而A项中all along错误。41The Bastille was first built _.Aas the palace of the King Charles VBto protect the citizens of Paris from their enemiesCfor the use of the churchDto punish the Kings enemies答案：B解析：细节题。答案在文中第一段第三句。42The people thought that the Bastille _.Awas not important since they found a few prisoners in itBwas something unfair to be used to punish writersCshouldnt be kept as a secret at allDwas the worst enemy against freedom答案：D解析：细节题。答案在文中第四段首句。43Who would be sent into the Bastille by the Kings letter?AMost of the French writers.BThose who had broken the law.CThose who were thought to be harmful to the king himself.DThe people who believed in free speech and free thinking.答案：C解析：细节题。答案在文中第二段首句。44The writer of the passage mainly wants to _.Atell us a story that happened in the BastilleBprove the importance of the Bastille to mean the Kings powerCtell some interesting characters in the historyDshow us that the Bastille stood for everything evil for everyone答案：B解析：主旨题。答案在文中第四段末句。CMany things about language are a mystery (神秘)，and many will always remain so. But there are some things that we do know.First, we know that all human beings have a language of some sort. There is no race of men anywhere on earth so backward that it has no language, no set of speech sounds by which people communicate with one another. Furthermore, in historical times, there has never been a race of men without a language.Secondly, there is no such things as a primitive language. There are many people whose cultures are undeveloped, who are, as we say, uncivilized, but the languages they speak are not primitive. In all known languages we can see that complexities (复杂程度) must have been tens of thousands of years in developing.This has not always been well understood; indeed, the direct contrary (相反的) has often been stated. Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate. Many people have supposed that Indians communicate in a very primitive system of noises. Study has proved this to be nonsense. There are, or were, hundreds of American Indian languages, and all of them turn out to be very complicated and very old. They are certainly different from the languages that most of us are familiar with, but they are no_more_primitive_than English and Greek.45What does “primitive” mean?ADeveloped. BUndeveloped.CGood DBad.答案：B解析：词义理解题。文章多处出现“primitive”一词，第一次出现是在第三段第一句，因为在段首，所以较难判断。而从第二句中的转折推知虽然有些民族文化落后，即“undeveloped”，但语言并不原始。既然“not primitive”意为“不原始”，可知“primitive”应与“undeveloped”意思一致。46What can we learn from the second paragraph?ASome backward race doesnt have a language.BSome race doesnt have a language of its own.CAny human race, whether backward or not, has a language.DSome races can communicate with one another even without a language.答案：C解析：概括归纳题。注意人们的普遍认识与科学研究结论的冲突，即美国印第安人使用的语言并不是如许多人认为的那样原始低级，而是相当复杂和古老。该段通过举例说明了文章第二、三段的观点，即无论文化先进与否，每个民族都有自己的语言。47What does “no more primitive than” mean according to the text?AJust as old as.BJust as advanced as.CMore backward than.DMore complex than.答案：B解析：词义理解题。no more.than的意思是“与一样不”，因此该部分意为“与一样先进”。DYou 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 (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead! Of course he isnt really dead. With any luck he isnt even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars or 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 (床垫). 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 stuntmans 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 (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) 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 stunt girls too.48Stuntmen are those who _.Aoften dress up as actorsBprefer to lead dangero
