Ive always been glad about that.It was Christmas time, and although there wasnt 39 for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big 40 for the kids was the fun of Christmas 41 .They planned weeks ahead of time, asking 42 what they wanted for Christmas. Fortunately, I had saved $120 for 43 to share by all five of us.The big 44 arrived. I gave each kid a twenty-dollar bill and 45 them to look for gifts of about four dollars each. Then everyone scattered(散开). We had two hours to shop; then we would 46 back at the “Santas Workshop”.Driving home, everyone was in high Christmas spirits, 47 my younger daughter, Ginger, who was unusually 48 . She had only one small, flat bag with a few candies fifty-cent candies! I was so angry, but I didnt say anything 49 we got home. I called her into my bedroom and closed the door, 50 to be angry again. This is what she told me.“I was looking 51 thinking of what to buy, and I 52 to read the little cards on the Giving Trees. One was for a little girl, four years old, and all she 53 for Christmas was a doll(玩具娃娃). So I took the card off the tree and 54 the doll for her.

For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “its about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?” They dont know.Its true that a person doesnt know the answer to your question sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I dont know.” People in Yucatan believe that “I dont know” is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!56. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually _. A. describe the place carefullyB. show him a map of the place C. tell him the names of the streetsD. refer to recognizable buildings and places57. What is the place where people measure distance in time? A. New York.B. Los Angeles.C. Kansas.D. Iowa.58. People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer _. A. in order to save timeB. Los Angeles. C. so as to be politeD. for fun59. What can we infer from the text? A. Its important for travelers to understand cultural differences. B. Its useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly. C. People have similar understandings of politeness. D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.(B)HolidaysHoliday NewsVacancies(空位) now and in the school holidays at a country hotel in Devon.

This could be the beginning of a lifetime of mountain climbing adventure.The World Sea Trip of a LifetimeOur World Sea Trip of 2008 will be unlike any holiday you have ever been on before.

It is strongly recommended(推荐) that vessel operators（(船只操纵者) follow these guidelines for all kinds of whales. Approach（接近） whales from the side, not from the front or the back. Approach no closer than 100 meters, then stop the boat but keep the engine（发动机） on. Keep noise levels down no horns, whistles or racing of engines. Start your boat only after the whales are more than 100 metres from your vessel. Leave the area slowly, gradually moving faster when you are more than 300 metres from the whales. Approach and leave slowly, avoiding sudden changes in speed or direction. Avoid disturbing groups of resting whales. Keep at low speeds and remain in the same direction if traveling side by side with whales. When whales are traveling close to shore, avoid crowding them near the shore or coming between the whales and the shore. Limit the time spent with any group of whales to less than 30 minutes at a time when within 100 to 200 metres of whales. If there is more than one vessel at the same observation spot, be sure to avoid any boat position that would result in surrounding the whales. Work together by communicating with other vessels, and make sure that all operators are aware of the whale watching guidelines.63. For whom is this text written? A. Tour guides.B. Whale watchers.C. Vessel operators.D. Government officials.64. When leaving the observation areas(观看区域), the vessel should _.

At the underside of the shelf there lives a small fish, the Antarctic cod.For forty years scientists have been curious about that fish. How does it live where most fish would freeze to death? It must have some secret. The Antarctic is not a comfortable place to work and research has been slow. Now it seems we have an answer.Research was begun by cutting holes in the ice and catching the fish. Scientists studied the fishs blood and measured its freezing point.The fish were taken from seawater that had a temperature of -1.88 and many tiny pieces of ice floating in it. The blood of the fish did not begin to freeze until its temperature was lowered to -2.05. That small difference is enough for the fish to live at the freezing temperature of the ice-salt mixture.The scientists next research job was clear: Find out what in the fishs blood kept it from freezing. Their search led to some really strange thing made up of a protein(蛋白质) never before seen in the blood of a fish. When it was removed, the blood froze at seawater temperature. When it was put back, the blood again had its antifreeze quality and a lowered freezing point.Study showed that it is an unusual kind of protein. It has many small sugar molecules(分子) held in special positions within each big protein molecule. Because of its sugar content, it is called a glycoprotein. So it has come to be called the antifreeze fish glycoprotein. Or AFGP.67. What is the text mainly about? A. The terrible conditions in the Antarctic. B. A special fish living in freezing waters. C. The ice shelf around Antarctica. D. Protection of the Antarctic cod.68. Why can the Antarctic cod live at the freezing temperature? A. The seawater has a temperature of -1.88. B. It loves to live in the ice-salt mixture. C. A special protein keeps it from freezing. D. Its blood has a temperature lower than -2.05.69. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to? A. A type of ice-salt mixture.B. A newly found protein. C. Fish blood.D. Sugar molecule.70. What does “glyco-” in the underlined word “glycoprotein” in the last paragraph mean? A. sugarB. iceC. bloodD. molecule第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据对话情景和内容，从对话后的选项中选出能入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Sa
