It” s time to harvest strawberries（草莓） , and the strawberry fields are full of people. These People are picking strawberries. They are not farmers, and they are not picking the fruit for money. They are picking fruit for fun. They can buy strawberries in a supermarket, but it is cheaper to pick their own fruit. Strawberries from the farm are also fresher（更新鲜的） . Most people also like to pick their own fruit because it is a pleasant way to spend an afternoon. One little boy is walking between the rows of plants. He is picking the strawberries and eating them as fast as he can. Two young women in pretty dresses and high-heeled shoes（高跟鞋） are getting out of their car. Now they are taking off their shoes. These women are taking a break from their work. They want to pick fruit and enjoy the sunshine. 44. What time of the year do the people in the passage pick strawberries? A. Early spring B.

George Crum was a cook at a restaurant in Saratoga Springs, New York. One day in 1853, a customer（顾客） who had ordered fried（油炸的） potatoes sent them back to the kitchen. He wanted the cook to slice（切） them thinner and fry them longer. George Crum had a bad temper（脾气） , and he thought the potatoes were fine the way he made them. To teach the customer a lesson, he sliced potatoes very thin and fried them until they were crispy（脆的） . But instead of being angry, the customer loved the new fried potatoes! He asked for more. Other people who tried them liked them too, and customers kept asking for them. For many years, people called them Saratoga chips after the town where they were first made. Even now, after more than 150 years, potato chips are very popular. At least one of every ten potatoes grown in the United States is made into potato chips. So if you like potato chips, be glad George Crum had a bad temper! 48. Why did the customer send the fried potatoes back to the kitchen? A. To make George Crum angry. B. To get thinner fried potatoes. C. To get the cook to make potato chips. D. To refuse to pay for the food. 49. How did George Crum” s plan fail? A. He didn” t teach the customer a lesson. B.

George Crum was a good cook. C. Potato chips were very delicious. D. Potato chips were invented by accident C Many students get a driver” s permit at 15. In California, they are then allowed to drive for 50 hours under supervision. “ Under supervision” means that a friend or relative who already has a licence has to ride with them. But what happens when teenagers (persons between 13 and 19 years old) start driving on their own? Many are careful drivers and never have a problem. But many others are not, and they create（造成） problems on the road. Fifteen-year-olds are too young to drive, and sixteen-year-olds are too immature（不成熟的） to start driving alone. In the United States, more teenagers are killed in driving accidents than in any other way. While fewer than 7% of all drivers are teenagers, teenagers are involved（占，包括） in 14% of the terrible car accidents in the country. Sixteen-year-olds are involved in over 43 crashes in every million kilometers they drive. But seventeen-year-olds cause only about 30 accidents in a million kilometers of driving. One year makes a difference. So the age limit（限制） should be increased. 51. The word “ permit” means _. A. learning to drive B. driving under supervision C. learner” s licence D. giving up driving 52. The writer of the passage would agree that _. A. starting to drive early is the best way to learn safety B. there are differences among teenager drivers C. sixteen-and seventeen-year-olds are similar drivers D. teaching students to drive has nothing to do with safety 53. The main idea in this passage is that _. A. increasing the age limit will cause fewer deaths B. fifteen-year-olds cause too many accidents C. good driving is largely a matter of good education D. it is meaningless to try to improve teenage driving 第二卷（三大题，共 40 分） 四 . 句子翻译（共 5 小题 ；每小题 3 分，满分 15 分） 将下列句子译成英语。 54. 今天比昨天热得多。 55. 让我们去游泳吧。 56. 这些照片是去年在北京拍的。 57. 我想我能与这些孩子相处得很好。 58. 我希望毕业后在这家公司找到一份工作。 五 . 短文改错（共 10 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 10 分） 对标有题号的每一行作出判断：如无错误，在该行右边横线上画一个勾（）；如有错误（每行只有一个错误），则在那个错的词下划一横线，在该行右边横线上写出改正后的词。 For several year I” ve bought flowers from a little 59. _ girl who come from Mexico.
