One of them was a Hungarian man. He lived in Australia for a long time, and he had a lot of good friends there. He always said to them, “Australia is beautiful, but Hungary is beautiful, too.” Then one year he said to his friends, “Im going to go back to Hungary to visit my home town.” All his friends said to him, “We want to go with you, because you often say Hungary is a beautiful country, and we want to visit it.” The Hungarian Australian took his friends from Sydney to Rome in a big plane, and then they went from Rome to Budapest in a train as they wanted to see the mountains, and the villages and the towns.They stayed in Budapest nearly a week, and they liked it very much. One day they went to the zoo in Budapest and saw two kangaroos there.These Australians were very happy because kangaroos were from their home town. They said to them, “Come here, old friends! Come and see your Australian brothers!” But the kangaroos did not move.But then the Hungarian Australian spoke to them in Hungarian, “Come here!” he said, and both of the kangaroos ran to him.The other Australians laughed and said, “Look at that. Theyre Australians, but they only know Hungarian!”41. The Hungarian moved to Australia _. A. last yearB. a few years agoC. about 50 years agoD. over 100 years ago42.

Instead, he has been told to wait another two years until he is 18. He works for a small firm in Liverpool, where most young people of his age are finding jobs. Davids biggest headache is what to do with his money. Though he has high payment, he cannot drive a car, or get credit cards(信用卡). David got his job four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels(普通成绩) and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs, ” he said. “I suppose 35, 000 sounds a lot but I hope it will come to more than that this year.” He spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 20 a week as he lives with his parents. But most of his spare time is spent working. “Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school, ” he said. “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway. I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement(退休) is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.” 45. Why is David so different from other young people of his age?

The organizations president, Charkid Khelil of Algeria, said after the meeting that stocks were high and prices were stable, so quota (配额) increases were not necessary.The E.U. Commission has expressed concern about Iraqs output stop. A speaker said OPEC had to take all possible measures to keep or lower the oil price.Saudi Arabias Oil Minister Ali Al-Nuaimi had earlier said there would not be any shortfall of oil in the market. The organization had already taken steps to fill the gap, he said. OPEC Secretary General Ali Rodriguez added that the period of the Iraq stop to export was not known, so other exporters were not going to lift quotas yet. If the market was destabilized(动摇), a suitable response could be made.Iraq on Monday stop shipments of crude oil to protest against the U.N. Security Councils decision to extend the oil-for-food programme by only a month, instead of the normal six-month renewal(延期).Just before the Vienna meeting, oil prices had gone up, with a barrel of OPEC crude selling for 27.05 dollars, up from 26.81 dollars last Friday. North sea oil was at 29.26 dollars Monday evening.OPEC wanted the oil price to stay within a margin of 22 to 28 dollars and achieved that with cuts in January and March that reduced 2.5 million barrels per day off quotas.49.

If you go by plane, you will make to trip in a few hours. If you go by train, you will finish the journey in two days. If you go by car, you will arrive there in a week or less. But how long does it take if you have to walk, or go on horseback or by boat? Certainly, it would take a lot more time if you do so.But the first men to cross North America went this slow way. They went from St. Louis, Missouri, to the Pacific Ocean. They had to carry their own supplies with them. There were no roads to follow, and rivers were very dangerous.Led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, a team of forty-five men left St. Louis on May 8, 1804. They traveled up the Mississippi River in boats. By late fall, the men reached the land of Manda Indians in what is now the state of North Dakota.Here they built a camp for the winter. Here they also met a French trapper(设陷阱捕兽者) and his Indian wife. The trapper and his wife became their guides later.In the spring of the next year, the men started up the Mississippi River again. At last they came to a place where the river divided into three forks(支流). At this place there is now a small town called Three Forks, Montana.They followed one of the forks, the Jefferson River, but the river soon became too small and they could no longer use their boats. They walked many miles before they met some Indians. These Indians gave them horses for their trip over the Rocky Mountains.The trip over the mountains was dangerous and difficult. Many of them were sick, and there was little food.On the west side of the mountains, they found the Columbia River. Here they built canoes(独木舟，小划子) to use on the rest of their trip to the west In November of 1806, after a long and hard trip, they reached the Pacific Ocean.58How many ways are mentioned in the article to go from the east to the west of the USA?59Who became the guides of the first men to cross North America? (No more than six words)60How long did it take the first men to finish such a journey?(No more than five words)第四部分 写作技能 （满分25分。）现在全国很多学校出现了一种新的教学方式：小组合作学习方式(
