When I travelled across to the other side of the island， I could see the other islands， and I said to myself， “Perhaps I can get there with a boat. Perhaps I can get back to England one day.”So I decided to make myself a boat. I cut down a big tree， and then began to make a long hole in it. It was hard work， but about six months later， I had a very fine canoe(独木舟). Next， I had to get it down to the sea. How silly I was！ Why didnt I think carefully before I began to work？ Of course， the canoe was too heavy. I couldnt move it！ I pulled and pushed and tried everything， but it didnt move. I was very unhappy for a long time after that.In my sixth year on the island， I did make myself a smaller canoe， but I did not try to escape in it. The boat was too small for a long journey， and I did not want to die at sea. The island was my home now， and I was just happy to be alive. A year or two later， I made myself a second canoe on the other side of the island. I also built myself a second house there， and so I had two homes.I kept food and tools at both of my houses， and also wild goats. There were many goats on the island， and I made fields with high fences to keep them in. They learnt to take food from me， and soon I had goats milk to drink every day. I also worked hard in my corn fields. And so， many years went by. 49.We can infer(推断) from the first paragraph that the writer .A. was probably from EnglandB. lived happily on the islandC. lost his way on the islandD. was born on the island50.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage？A.

The writer knew the canoe was too small for a long journey across the sea.51.This story is mainly about how the writer .A. kept goats in the fieldsB. escaped from the islandC. built houses by himselfD. survived on the island CReading is the key to school success and，like any skill，it takes practice. A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly， correctly and without thinking. Educators call it “automaticity(自动性)”. A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With practice， he stumbles less and less， reading by the phrase. With automaticity， he doesnt have to think about the meaning of words， so he can give all his attention to the meaning of the text.It can begin as early as first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools， Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read almost three times as fast as the others， but also got better results in exams.According to Rossman， the key to automaticity is the amount(数量)of time a child spends reading， not his IQ. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books， magazines or newspapers will probably reach automaticity. It can happen if a child turns off TV just one night for reading at home. You can test yourself by reading something new which is suitable for your level. If you read aloud with expression， with a sense of the meaning of the sentences， you probably are an automatic reader. If you read brokenly， one word at a time， without expression or meaning， you need more practice.52. “ Reading is the key to school success” means that reading_.

In this book the writer describes the great changes which have been made in family life because of science and industry. In the past， when more Americans lived on farms， the typical(典型的) family had many children. In a farm family， parents and their children often lived with grandparents. Uncles and aunts often lived nearby， too. But now， when industry has become more important than agriculture(农业) in American life， families are becoming smaller and smaller. Industry requires workers who are ready and able to move off the land to move again whenever necessary. Large families cant be moved from place to place as easily as smaller families can. In the future， a typical family will be required to move even more often than now， so families will be even smaller .The typical family may keep childless and consist (组成)only of a man and a woman. A smaller number of families may raise(养育) children. These families may raise children as their main occupation， leaving the childless families free to move from job to job. Whats more， these child-raising families may raise other peoples children in addition to th
