One day he became very ill and everyone thought he would die. They sent for a doctor, who arrived two days later and examined the sick man. The doctor asked for a pen and some paper to write down the name of the medicine. But there was no pen or paper in the village, because no one could read or write.The doctor picked up a piece of burned wood from the fire. Using the wood, he wrote the name of the medicine on the door of the house. Get this medicine for him, he said, and he will soon get better.Mikes family and friends did not know what to do. They could not read the strange writing. Then the village baker had an idea. He took off the door of the house, put it on his cart and drove to the nearest town. He bought the medicine and Mike was soon well again. He would not let anyone wash the magic words from the door.26.

When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself, he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nations hopes, dreams and reputation.A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the worlds most important sport.Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. MentionArgentina to someone and the chances are that hell think of football. In a sense, winning theWorld Cup puts Argentina on the map.Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational（失去理性的）about the World Cup, People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Argentina, where the finals were played.So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentinean really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But its nice to know mat if you win, and that in one way at least your country is the best.31.

So wide and varied are the uses of wheels, in machines and vehicles of all kinds mat it is difficult to imagine what the world would be like without them. It is surprising to hear it said, therefore, that the wheels importance will perhaps be greatly reduced by the end of the century by an invention so new as to be still unnamed. This invention is a machine that floats above any surface on a cushion of air. The cushion is formed when air is blown into the bottom of the machine. This part is shaped like a saucer turned upside down. If air is blown into the saucer, the machine rises to a height that may vary from a few inches to a few feet.Industry is already using one form of the invention to deal with heavy loads. It can lift them with ease and since there are no wheels, and therefore no friction(磨擦), they can be put into motion with the touch of a finger.The new invention, however, is having a great effect on transport. Not only does it makeexpensive road systems unnecessary, but also it enables vehicles to travel equally well over land or water. This unique ability to reach most destinations has given rise to the prediction that wheeled vehicles may be as uncommon at the end of this century as airplanes were at the beginning of last century.36. The first paragraph tells us that_.A) big wheels have all kinds of usesB) the wheels usefulness hasnt been provedC) a new invention may make wheels less importantD) the wheel was mans earliest invention37. In the third paragraph, the phrase “with the touch of a finger means_.A) without friction B) by hand C) without difficulty D) with a hand38. The new invention works on _.A) water B) air C) land D) friction39. The passage tells us that the new invention_.A) makes it possible to travel without using roadsB) will replace wheeled vehicles in a few yearsC) will be used instead of airplanes in the near futureD) is more important for industry than for transport40. Vehicles using the new invention will probably be _ at the end of this century.A) unique B) unnecessary C) unusual D) plentifulPart III ClozeDirections: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.
