let them watch as they want.56. why did the author bring a tv into his baby sons room? a. to make his son become quiet. b. in order not to let his baby feel lonely. c. to spend the night by watching tv program. d. to make his son go to sleep as soon as possible.57. the babys reaction(反应) to the tv program is _. a. calm b. exciting c. encouraging d. unexpected58. the underlined phrase “fight about” in the passage probably means _. a. quarrel about b. think of c. care for d. talk over59. from the passage, we know that the author is _. a. an editor b. a teacher c. a writer d. a scholar(学者) （b） our “mommy and me” time began two years ago. my next-door neighbor and fellow mother, christie, and i were our in our front yards, watching seven children of age six and under ride their bikes up and down. “i wish i could take one of my children out alone,” said christie. then we worked out a plan. when christie takes one of her children out alone, ill watch her other three. and when she watched two of mine, i will take someone out. the children were extremely quick to accept the idea of “mommy and me” time. christies daughter, mckenzie, went first. when she returned, the other children showered her with tons of questions. mckenzie was smiling broadly. christie looked refreshed and happy. “she is like a different kid when theres no one else around,” christie shared with me quietly. with her mother all to herself, mckenzie didnt have to make any effort to gain attention. just as christie had noticed changes in mckenzie, i also discovered something different in each of my children during our alone times. for example, im always surprised when my daughter, who is seldom close to me, holds my hand frequently. my stuttering(口吃的) son, tom, doesnt stutter once during our activities since he doesnt have to struggle for a chance to speak. and the other son, sam, who is always a follower when around other children, shines a leader during our times together. the “mommy and me” time allows us to be simply alone and away with each childtalking, sharing and laughing, which has been the biggest gain. every child deserves an only child at least once in a while.60. whats the text mainly about?

twenty pounds,” i said. “ok,” he said, “ill give you twenty pounds.” “its got a slightly broken leg,” i said. “yes, i saw that. its nothing.” everything was going according to the plan and i was getting excited. “what will you do with it? i asked. “oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “ill buy it,” i said. “what do you mean? youve just said sold it to me,” he said. “yes, i know but ive changed my mind. im sorry. ill give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “you must be crazy,” he said. then suddenly the penny dropped. “i know what you want. you want me to repair your chair.” “youre right,” i said, “and what would you have done if i had walked in and asked would you mend this chair for me?” “i wouldnt have agreed to do it,” he said. “we dont do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. but ill mend this for you. shall we say for a fiver?” he was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing.68. we can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer _. a. was rather impolite b. was warmly received c. asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair d. asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair69. the underlined word “approach” in the second paragraph means _. a. plan to deal with things b. decision to sell things c. idea of repairing things d. way of doing things70. the expression “the penny dropped” in the last paragraph means that the shopkeeper _. a. changed his mind b. saw the writers purpose c. accepted the offer d. decided to help the writer71. from the text, we can learn that the write was a _ person. a. smart b. tricky c. cautious d. humorous （e） happy leap day! leap day, you ask? yes, its february 29. you may notice this date didnt appear on last years calendar, or the year before that, or thats because leap day happens once every four years and 2008 is a leap year. a leap year has 366 days instead of the usual 365 that an ordinary year has. an extra day is added to the calendar in a leap year, and heres why: the 365 days of the calendar are meant to match up with the solar year. a solar year is the time it takes the earth to complete its orbit around the sun, about one year. but the earths yearly trip around the sun takes a bit longer than 365 days. the orbit takes 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds, to be exact. that time equals roughly one quarter of a day., so the calendar and the solar year dont match accurately. after a few years, that extra time in the solar year begins to accumulate. after four years, for example, the four extra quarter days will make the calendar fall behind the solar year by about a day. according to the honor society of leap year day babiesa club for people born on leap daythere are an estimated 4 million people whose birthdays come but once every four years. but who wants to wait four years to celebrate his/her birthday? most celebrate yearly on february 28 or march 1. there was a time when strict rules prevented women from proposing marriage to their beloved. in most cultures, thats not the case anymore. in fact, female pioneers who thought this rule was clearly unfair managed to get leap year established as an acceptable time for women to pop the question to unmarried men. so on february 29, a man could be surprised with an offer he couldnt refuse. the first documentation(文献的使用) of this day of ladies choice was in 1288 in scotland. officials then decided to pass a law that allowed women to propose marriage to men of their choice in that year. they also made it law that any man who said no to a proposal in a leap day had to pay a fine. the fine could range(范围在之间)from a kiss to payment for a silk dress or a pair of gloves.72. according to the first two paragraphs, we can conclude that _. a. february 29 never appears on the calendar. b. february 29 comes once every four years, every leap year c. an ordinary year has one more day than a leap year d. 2008 has 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds73. what does the underlined phrase “pop the question” probably means _. a. propose marriage b. refuse marriage c. ask questions d. give directions74. in the last paragraph, the underlined “they” refers to _. a. unmarried men b. single ladies c. officials d. the scottish75. which topic can best describe the last paragraph?
