moscow, madrid, paris, vienna, and stockholm without going to europe? the answer is in the state of maine!throughout the united states there are many towns and cities that have been named after not only european cities but other countries as well, such as china, poland, norway, sweden, and denmark. just how many new world place names are recycled from the old world names has never been tallied, but one researcher found forty-one londons, fifty-six berlins, twenty-four dublins, thirty-two athenses, and twenty-seven moscows, among others!reasons for european place names differ. some were in memory of settlers former homes, others in honor of historic events. founded in 1818 by john coffee, robert beaty, john d. carroll, and john read, athens is one of the oldest incorporated cities in the state of alabama. the town was first called athenson, and the name was then shortened to athens, after the ancient city in greece. more interestingly, some names were given by mistake. for instance, the people of moscow, kansas, wanted to their city to follow the name of the explorer moscoso. they shortened his name to mosco, and an official in washington, thinking the kansans couldnt spell, added a w.56. which of the following is true according to the passage?a. the state of maine has many cities named after european cities. b. you can drive to many european cities from the state of maine. c. all the settlers in the state of maine came from europe. d. in the state of maine there are many different european cities. 57. the word “tallied” (line 4, paragraph 2) is closest in

and their names c. interesting namesd. the story of moscow, kansasbhere are some of the worlds most impressive subways. the tokyo metro and toei linesfeatures: the tokyo metro and toei lines that compose tokyos massive subway system carry almost 8 million people each day, making it the busiest system in the world. the system is famous for its oshiya- literally, “pusher”- who shove passengers into crowded subway cars so the doors can close. and you think your commute is hell. the moscow metro features: the moscow metro has some of the most beautiful stations in the world. the best of them were built during the stalinist era and feature chandeliers(枝形吊灯), marble moldings and elaborate murals(精美的壁画). with more than 7 million riders a day, keeping all that marble clean has got to be a burden.the hong kong metro features: the hong kong mtr has the distinction of being one of the few subway systems in the world that actually turns a profit. its privately owned and uses real estate development along its tracks to increase income and ridership. it also introduced “octopus cards” that allow people to not only pay their fares electronically, but buy stuff at convenience stores, supermarkets, restaurants and even parking meters. its estimated that 95 % of all adults in hong kong own an octopus card .shanghai metro features: shanghai is the third city in china to build a metro system, and it has become the countrys largest in the 12 years since it opened. shanghai metro has 142 miles of track and plans to add another 180 miles within five years. by that point, it would be three times larger than chicago “l”. the system carries about 2.18 million people a day. the london metrofeatures: londoners call their subway the underground, even though 55 percent of it lies above ground. no matter when youve got the oldest mass-transit system in the world, you can call it anything you like. trains started in1863 and theyve been running ever since. some 3 million people ride

more than 5 million people per day? a.5 b. 3 c. 4 d. 2c（london）if it really is whats on the inside that counts, then a lot of thin people might be in trouble.some doctors now think that the internal fat surrounding important organs like the heart or liver could be as dangerous as the external fat which can be noticed more easily.“being thin doesnt surely mean you are not fat,” said dr jimmy bell at imperial college. since 1994, bell and his team have scanned nearly 800 people with mri machines to create “fat maps” showing where people store fat.according to the result, people who keep their weight through diet rather than exercise are likely to have major deposits of internal fat, even if they are slim.even people with normal body mass index scores can have surprising levels of fat deposits inside. of the women, as many as 45 percent of those with normal bmi scores (20 to 25) actually had too high levels of internal fat. among men, the percentage was nearly 60 percent.according to bell, people who are fat on the inside are actually on the edge of being fat. they eat too many fatty and sugary foods, but they are not eating enough to be fat. scientists believe we naturally store fat around the belly first, but at some point, the body may start storing it elsewhere.doctors are unsure about the exact dangers of internal fat, but some think it has something to do with heart disease and diabetes. they want to prove that internal fat damages the bodys communication systems.the good news is that internal fat can be easily burned off through exercise or even by improving your diet. “if you want to be healthy, there is no short cut. exercise has to be an important part of your lifestyle,” bell said.64. what is this piece of news mainly about?a. thin people also have troubles.b. internal fat is of no importance.c. internal fat leads to many diseases.d. thin people may be fat inside.65.doctors have found _.a. being slim doesnt mean you are not fat insideb. internal fat is the cause of heart disease and diabetesc. being slim is not dangerous at alld. the exact dangers of internal fat66.according to the passage, which of the following is wrong?a. people with heart disease all have internal fat.b. people can get rid of internal fat by improving diet.c. men are more likely to have too much internal fat.d. exercise can help to reduce the internal fat.dcold weather can be hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people. sometimes owners forget that their pets just as used to the warm shelter(住所）as they are.some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. this can put their pets in danger of serious illness. there are many things you can do to keep your animal and safe. keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. lf you have to take them out, stay outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.if left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. they can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. keep an eye on your pets water. sometimes owners dont realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet cant get anything to drink. animals that dont have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.67. what do we learn about pets from paragraph 1？ a. they are often forgotten by their owners.b. they are used to living outdoors.c. they build their own shelters.d. they like to stay in warm places.68. why are pet owners asked to stay with their pets when they are

enemies. sometimes they were looking for gold or silver in order to become rich. on other occasions they were searching for rich farmland. this is not to say that no one ever traveled just for fun. even in ancient times, some pleasure travel occurred. during a typical season, 700,000 tourists would crowd into the ancient city of rome, where animals performed and magicians entertained them 72 73 international tourist arrivals alone reached as many as 546 million in 1994 and are forecast to rise to 937 million in 2010, according to the world trade organization.74 probably the most common
