When he got dressed he got blood all over his clean shirt, so he had to find another one. The only other shirt that was clean needed ironing（熨）, so he ironed it. While he was ironing it, there was a knock at the door. It was the man to read the electricity meter（表）. He showed him where the meter was, said good-bye and found that the iron had burnt a hole in his shirt. So he had to wear the one with the blood on it after all. By this time it was very late, so he decided he couldnt go to work by bus. He telephoned for a taxi to take him to work. The taxi arrived and Harry got in and began to read the newspaper.In another part of the town, a man had killed a woman with a knife and was seen to run away in a taxi. When Harrys taxi stopped outside his office, a policeman happened to be standing there. He saw the blood on Harrys shirt, and took him to the police station.

It doesnt stop there, thoughsome sleep positions are healthier than others. So which sleep position is the healthiest?Sleeping on your back is the healthiest sleep position, Health benefits include avoiding back and neck pain.

This means less wrinkles(皱纹)If you really cant face sleeping on your back, another healthy sleep position is the side sleep.

For example, there is “light” but “white”, “loan” but “phone”，and there are at least seven different ways of pronouncing “ough”：“though”，“through”，“bough”，“cough”，“enough”，“ought” and “thorough” The American President Theodore Roosevelt almost succeeded in simplifying English spelling. In 1906，Andrew Carnegie started the Simplified Spelling Board. He was one of the richest men in the United States of America. The boards plan was to make the spelling of words nearer to the way they sound. For example，the word “though” would be spelt “tho” and “through” would become “thru”. Other people on the board were Melvil Dewey, the head of the New York libraries, and Professor Brander Matthews of Columbia University. They explained their idea to President Roosevelt, who thought that it was indeed logical. He immediately asked the government printer to use simplified spelling in all government letters.But people didnt like the change，even if it made life easier. So the new simpler spelling was not popular. More importantly，when the American politicians(政客)discussed the plan，they did not like it either. Because Roosevelt did not want to have any problems with the politicians, he changed his mind and told the printer to go back to the old way of spelling.Since then no one in any government has dared to simplify English spelling. However, people do simplify some words，mainly in advertisements. For example, we often see “tonite” instead of “tonight” and “thru” instead of “through”. 51. Many people have tried to simplify English spelling because _.A. sometimes the same sounds have different spellings B. there are many mistakes in English wordsC. lots of words are spelt in many different ways D. English words are too long to remember 52. Who is NOT a member of the Simplified Spelling Board?A. Andrew Carnegie. B. Theodore Roosevelt. C. Melvil Dewey. D. Brander Matthews.53. What was Theodore Roosevelts attitude towards simplified spelling?A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Uncertain. D. Supportive. 54. According to the passage, simplified spelling _.A. was welcomed by the US politicians B. changed the way the words soundC. was first used in US government letters D. has been used widely for over a century 55. Roosevelts plan to simplify English spelling _.A. proved quite successful B. failed in the endC. won wide support D. influenced English greatly第二节：Mathew, Sarah, Lois, Dennis和Georgia正在挑选自己想学的汉语课程。第5660题是他们的个人情况介绍。阅读下面六门汉语课程的简介(A、B、C、D、E 和 F)，从中找出符合5位的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。选项中有一项是多余选项。_ 56.
