and we are only at the beginningfor we have just entered the age of super-fast trains, traveling at 1 50 miles an hour and moresoon we will be wondering why we spent so much on motorways we cant use because we have not enough money to buy the oil and planes we cant fly in for the same reason.( )52.some people think the railways are dead for many reasons except that _ _a.planes and motorcars will take the place of trainsb.oil is expensive todayc.trains are slow d.railways lose money( )53.the writers idea seems to be that _ a. we can do without railways b.trains have much in common with motorcars and planes c.motorcars and planes are not as good as trains d.trains are as good as motorcars and planes( )54. according to the writer，which of the following is not true?

what do tourists hope to experience in a foreign country that they cannot experience at home？the answer could be that people are very interested in the past. it is a nations history and culture that are the main attractions. most people travel overseas to find out what foreign countries history and cultures used to be like, not what they arc like today. tourists try to learn the history and culture of foreign countries by visiting different kinds of museums. every country also has its own beautiful places for tourists to visit. their own special scenery(风景) would certainly attract tourists from other countries. finally, there is perhaps a countys attraction: its people. a country is not just its old buildings, its works of art(艺术品) or beautiful places, its also the people who live in it. this is why a country such as thailand attracts millions of people. the tourists come mainly because of the friendliness(友好) of the people there. it is why the pacific islands are also so popular.the friendly,smiling people make visitors feel welcome.the 60_of tourismin the pastpeople traveled to foreign countries to61_. which were different from those of own.at present1.the large cities in different countries look almost 62_.2.people travel to foreign countries to learn their 63_, to visit beautiful places and friendly people.七、完成句子（2分7=14分）根据所给提示，完成句子，每空一词64、中国航天业已取得了巨大的进步。 china has great in its space industry.65、如果每个人都遵守交通规则，那么道路就会安全得多。if everyone the traffic rules, the roads will be much .66、四分之三的专家都在研究是否取消房屋限购令。 of experts are studying whether the restrictions on home purchases should be phased or not.67、随着社会的发展，房价开始迅速上涨。with the of society , the price of houses has rapidly.68、点头意味着同意 the head means .69、我正在考虑买一辆新车。im a new car.70、我们已经成功地完成了这项工作。we have in the hard work.八、短文填空。（共10个空，每空1分，共10分）从方框中选择适当的词，并用其适当形式完成短文，每词只能用一次，每空一词。answer just serve neighbor ring full invite on sad waituntil last year, the saddest thing of my family was that my wife alice and i couldnt have any children. so we always 71 all the children in our street to our house for christmas breakfast.last year, alice died. i was very 72 and decided not to invite the children for christmas breakfast. but kathy and pete, my next door 73 , asked me to join them for dinner 74 christmas eveas soon as i arrived and took off my coat, karry asked me . “do you have any milk at your house ?”“yes, ” i 75 . “if you need some, ill go and get it right away. ”“oh, thats all right. come and sit down. the kids are 76 for you. just give peter your keys and let him do it.”after happy dinner with them, i went home. when i opened my door, i found my house had been decorated by peter! it was 77 as beautiful as each christmas before. at that moment, i wished that i could still 78 the christmas breakfast, but i had made no preparations（准备）.early the next morning, a lit
