Ask your host what time you should arrive. Its polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a gift. Usually the evening starts with drinks and snacks. Do you want to be extrapolite?

Its polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want it. Did you enjoy the evening? Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short“Thank you”letter.

BAn underwater robot (机器人) that can hear the calls of whales, and so help ships to avoid them, has just been successfully tested in the Bahamas.The scheme （方案） relies on a fish-shaped glider (滑翔机) that moves freely through the ocean. It can dive down as far as 200 meters below the surface and direct itself by shifting a weight from fore to aft. A microphone attached to the bottom of the glider can pick up calls from all whales, including the high frequency call of the beaked whale, which until now has been difficult to detect. The glider returns periodically to the surface to radio its data back to base, or if thats too far away, it can call a satellite phone and send its information anywhere in the world.“We are entering a new era of underwater sensing,” says Jim Theriault of Defence Research and Development Canada, Dartmouth, who ran the test. “We can put a glider in the Bahamas and control it in Nova Scotia.”The hope is that naval or other ocean-going operations that use sonar (声纳) will be able to move easily track where whales are, and so avoid using their noisy equipment when they are close by. There is circumstantial evidence (旁证) that sonar can upset whales and a number of strandings (搁浅) have been seen shortly after naval sonar operations. “Were trying to lower the potential risk by knowing the animals are there,”says Theriault. 55. The shape of the underwater robot is like .A. a man B. a fish C. a snake D. a turtle 56. The underwater robot is built to .A. help whales move to the BahamasB. help whales give birth to their youngC. help ships avoid whalesD. help humans kill more whales 57. To radio its data back to base, the robot has to .A. dive down as far as 200 meters below the surfaceB. stay deep in the waterC. call a satellite phoneD. come to the surface periodically 58. The best title for the passage would be “ ”.A. Whales are in dangerB. Whales are difficult to findC. Robot built to kill whalesD. Robot built to spy on whales CLondon is the capital of the United Kingdom. It has about seven million people. The river Thames runs through London.People from all over the world visit London to see Buckingham Palace, the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey and the Tower of London. There are many museums, theatres and parks in London, as well as offices and factories. London began as a Roman settlement called Londinium. The plague(瘟疫) came to London in the 1600s, followed by the Great Fire of 1666. The city was badly bombed in World War II.London is very slowly sinking into its foundations and the level of the river Thames is slowly rising. As a result, extra-high tides could flood a large part of London. To prevent this happening, a great barrier（屏障）has been built across the Thames at Woolwich. If very high tides happen, the barrier can be raised and London will be safe.59. London is the capital of _, which began as a _ settlement.A. England; Norman B. UK; Frenchman C. Scotland; English D.

Reagans final years saw him fight a losing battle against Alzheimers disease（老年痴呆症）. But his positive attitude toward life has given hope to many people. Born in 1911 to a poor family in a small town in Illinois, his father was a failed salesman who drank too much. It was in these difficult times, though, that Reagan developed the powerful optimism（乐观） that would serve him so well. He always believed better times lying ahead, and this was reflected in his high school yearbook entry. “Life is one grand, sweet song, so start the music,” he wrote. As a teenager, Reagan spent summers working as a lifeguard at a local beach, saving 77 lives in seven years. He graduated from college in 1932 with a degree in economics and sociology. But America was still in the middle of the Great Depression, and jobs were hard to find. Reagan finally found work as a radio sports announcer and this road led him to Hollywood in 1937. During the 20-year film career, he never became a leading star. As in his lifeguard days, Reagan loved to play the hero and only took the role of a bad guy once in more than 50 films. A talented speaker who was always able to connect with his audience, Reagan became involved in politics in the 1950s. This popular touch led to him being elected the governor of California in 1967. All the while Reagan was in California, he had his eye on the White House. In 1980, aged 69, he became the oldest man ever elected president. He held office from 1981 to 1989, the first president to serve two complete terms after World War . When he left, aged 77, he held the highest popularity rate of any retiring president in US history.He remained positive even when he discovered he had an illness that would destroy him. “I will leave with the greatest love for this country of ours and eternal（永恒的optimism(乐观) for its future,”he wrote.62. Reagan can be best described as a man with _.A. firmness B. humour C. optimism D. talent63. What didnt Reagan do in his life time?A. Playing the role of a bad guy.B.

Reagan was elected the governor of California.A. a, c, d, e ,b B. e, c, d, b, aC. b, a, c, d, e D. c, d, b, e, a65.
