Everybody learns his own language by remembering what he hears when he is a small child, and some children, like boys and girls who live abroad with their parents, seem to learn two languages almost as easily as one. In school it is not easy to learn a second language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.A mans mind is rather like a camera, but it takes photos not only of what we see but of what we feel, hear, smell and taste. When we take a real photo with a camera, there is much to do before the photo is finished and ready to show to our friends. In the same way there is much work to be done before we can keep a picture forever in our mind. Memory is the diary that we all carry about with us. 56. We usually begin to learn our own language by _ it. A. speaking B. hearing C. sayingD. teaching 57. If you have a good _ , youll have less difficulty in learning something. A. teacherB. camera C. memory D. family 58. The children who live abroad with their parents can learn two languages more easily, because _. A. they are very clever B. they have good teachers C. they have more chances to use these languages D. they have a better life 59. Memory is _ that we write in our mind and carry about. A. the best diary B. the best cameraC. a great help D. a beautiful picture BIt was a dark and cold night. The car driver didnt have even one passenger all day. When he went by the railway station, he saw a young man coming out with two bags in his hands. So he quickly opened the door of the car and asked, “Where do you want to go, sir?”“To the Star Hotel, the young man answered. When the car driver heard that, he didnt feel happy. The young man would give him only three dollars because the hotel was not far from the railway station. But suddenly, he had an idea. He took the passenger through many streets of the big city.After a long time, the car finally arrived at the hotel. “You should pay me fifteen dollars.” the car driver said to the young man. “What! Fifteen dollars? Do you think Im a fool? Only last week I took a car from the railway station to this same hotel and I only gave the driver thirteen dollars. I know how much I have to pay for the trip. I wont pay you one dollar more than I paid to the other car driver last week. ”60. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. The young man went past the railway station.B. The young man was working in the railway station.C. The young man had just got off a train.D. The young man was waiting for his friend there.61 What do you think of the car driver?A. He was a nice and clever man. B. He liked to work very hard.C. He was good at driving. D. He was not an honest person.62. From the passage we know that the young man .A. knew clearly how far it was from the station to the hotelB. had been to the hotel several timesC. didnt want to stay in this cityD. must be a stranger and didnt know the city very well63. The driver took the passenger through many streets so as to .A. make the young man happyB. let the young man think it was very far from the station to the hotelC. let the young man have a good look at the cityD. get more than twenty dollarsCYou might think that “global warming” means nothing more than a rise in the worlds temperature. But rising sea levels caused by it has resulted in the first evacuation（撤离）of an island nation-the citizens of Tuvalu will have to leave their homeland.During the 20th century, the sea level rose 8-12 inches. As a result, Tuvalu has experienced lowland flooding of salt water which has polluted the countrys drinking water.Paani Laupepa, a Tuvaluan government official, reported to the Earth Policy Institute that the nation suffered an unusually high number of fierce storms in the past ten years. Many scientists connect higher surface water temperatures resulting from global warming to greater and more damaging storms.Laupepa expressed dissatisfaction with the United States for refusing to sign the Kyoto Protocol, an international agreement calling for industrialized mations to reduce their green house gas emissions（导致温室效应的气体排放）, which are a main cause of global warming. “By refusing to sign the agreement, the US has effectively taken away the freedom of future generations of Tuvaluans to live where their forefathers have lived for thousands of years,” Laupepa told the BBC.Tuvalu has asked Australia and New Zealand to allow the gradual move of its people to both countries. Tuvalu is not the only country that is vulnerable（易受影响的）to rising sea levels. Maumoon Gayoon, president of the Maldives, told the United Nations that global warming has made his country of 311,000 an “endangered nation”.64. The passage is mainly about .A. repid changes in the earths temperatureB. bad effects of global warmingC. moving of a country to a new placeD. reasons for lowland flooding65. According to scientists, the direct cause of more and fiercer storms is .A. green house gas emissions in industrialized nationsB. higher surface water temperatures of the seaC. continuous global warmingD. rising sea levels66. Laupepa was not satisfied with the United States because it did not .A. agree to reduce its green house gas emissionsB. sign an agreement with TuvaluC. allow Tuvaluans to move to the USD. believe the problems facing Tuvalu were real67. The country whose situation is similar to that of Tuvalu is .A. Australia B. New Zealand C. the Maldives D. the USDMy grandfather was a teacher. He was the headmaster of a school for boys between the ages of thirteen and eighteen. I know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart, because when I was young, he gave me presents, sat me on his knee, and told me stories. But I believe that boys at his school were afraid of him.At school, when he walked into a room full of noisy boys, there was silence at once. When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, that boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work, which was not the best that boy could do, my grandfather picked up the boys book and threw it across the room, shouting, “Do it again, and bring it back first in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the work, he had to do it again and again, and yet again. My grandfather never forgot.68. My grandfather was _.A. a kind and gentle teacherB. a teacher who gave presents to the pupilsC. the head teacher of a boys schoolD. a boy at a school where everyone was afraid of the head-teacher69.

So we want to treat fear as a friend? Here are three reasons.72. _ Think about it. Do you get more nervous when you meet the girl (or guy) of your dreams? Which is more fearful, talking to the boss of your company or to some of your friends? 73. _ If you didnt have fear to guide you, you might not know that! Not so bad, right? Next, fear encourages us to take action. Fear is a call to action. In the past, our ancestors (祖先) didnt run away in fear when they saw a tiger running toward them but tried to kill it for food. Now, most of us dont face serious danger like hungry tigers every day, but we do face serious bosses or public speaking. So, what can we do? 74. _Lastly, fear lets you know you are alive. Why do we like roller coasters (过山车)? 75. _ Same for horror movies.So fear can guide you towards whats important for you and encourage you to take action to improve. Dont we all need that kind of friend?A. Dont fear to be wrong.B. It frightens us in a mostly safe way.C. Imagine what life would be like without fear.D. The first is
