a dead author of detective stories saved the life of a nineteen-month-old baby in a most unusual way. the author was agatha christie, a gentle married lady and one of the most successful writers of detective stories in the world. ks5uin june 1977 , a baby girl became seriously ill in qatar (卡塔尔) , near sandi arabia(沙特阿拉伯) . doctors were unable to find out the cause of her illness, so she was flown to london and sent to hammersmith hospital. a team of doctors hurried to examine the baby only to discover that they, too, were puzzled by the very unusual signs of illness. while they were having a discussion about the babys illness, a nurse asked to speak to them. “excuse me,” said nurse marsha maitland, “but i think the baby is suffering from thallium poisoning(铊中毒) .”“what makes you think that?” dr. brown asked. “thallium poisoning is very rare.”“a few days ago, i was reading a novel called a pale horse by agatha christie,” nurse maitland explained. “in the book, somebody uses thallium poison, and all the signs are exactly the same as the baby s . ”“you are very careful and you may be right,” another doctor said. “well carry out some tests and find out whether it s thallium(铊) or not.”tests showed that the baby had indeed been poisoned by thallium. once they knew the cause of the illness, the doctors were able to give the baby the correct treatment. she soon recovered and was sent back to qatar. later on it was proved that the poison might have come from an insecticide(杀虫剂) used in qatar. 41who first suggested the correct cause of the babys illness?aa doctor in qatar. bnurse maitland.cdr. brown. dagatha christie. 42why was the baby sent to london?ashe was a british girl whose parents were working in qatar. bthe hospitals in qatar were full at that time. cshe was the daughter of a doctor in one of the places. dthe qatar doctors were not sure they could cure her. 43as far as we can tell from the passage, agatha christie_ ahad never even met this baby. bhad spent a long time as a police officer. cvisited the baby in the hospital at hammersmith. dgave nurse maitland some advice on the phone. 44nurse maitland spoke to the doctorsawhen she heard them discussing the possibility of thallium poison. bbecause she could see that the doctors had made a mistake.cto suggest a possible reason for the patient s illness. dafter she had read about a horse which had been poisoned.45what did the doctor think of the suggestion which nurse maitland made?athey were very quick to agree with her. bthey were unhappy over her interruption. cthey said that she was wrong because thallium poisoning is very rare. dthey thought it was a possibility worth considering. bfor years and years people have been saying that the rail ways are dead. “we can do without railways”, people say as if motorcars and planes have made the railways unnecessary. we all keep hearing that trains are slow, that they lose money, and that theyre dying. but this is far from the truth. in these days of expensive oil, the railways have become highly competitive with motorcars and planes. if you want to carry people or goods from place to place, they are cheaper than planes. and they have much in common with planes. a plane goes in a straight line and so does a railway. what is more, it takes you from the heart of a city into the heart of another. it doesnt leave you as a plane does, miles and miles from the city center. it doesnt hold you up as a car does, in endless traffic jams. and a single train can carry goods which no plane or motorcar could ever do.far from being dead, the railways are very much alive. modern railway lines give you a smooth, untroubled journey. where else can you eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe and enjoy the scene while you are traveling at speed at the same time? and we are only at the beginning，for we have just entered the age of superfast trains(超速列车). trains are traveling at 150 miles an hour and more. soon 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.46. some people think the railways are unnecessary for many reasons except that _ .planes and motorcars have taken the place of trainsoil is expensive today trains are slowalways lose money47. the writers idea seems to be that _ .we can do without railwaystrains have much in common with motorcars and planesmotorcars and planes are not as good as trainstrains are as good as motorcars and planes48. according to the writer, which of the following is not true? _.it is cheaper to travel by train than by planethe railway station is usually at the center of a citywhen you get off the plane you will find yourself right in the city centerno motorcar or plane can carry as many goods as a train does49. the writer thinks that the railways, far from being dead, are very much alive because _.we can have a smooth and untroubled journeywell not have enough money to fly in planeswe can now travel in super-fast trainsall the above50. the best title for this passage may be _ .a. not the end , but the beginningb. which is the best: train, motorcar or planec. trains are more competitive than motorcars or planes d. oh, super-fast trainsca local government in eastern england is starting a new plan for getting children to and from school. this could end the worries of many parents fearful for their childrens safety on the roads.until now the local government have only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed. now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead, as long as the arrangement will not lose money and children taking part will be attending their nearest school.the new plan is to be tried out this term for children living at milton who attend impington school. the children live just within the three-mile limit and the local government said in the past that they would not undertake to provide free transport to the school. but now they have agreed to offer a sum of money for a bus service from milton to impington and back, a plan which has the support of the schools headmaster.between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part. final calculations have still to be carried out, but a government official has said the cost to parents should be less than 20 a term.they have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away from impington. the same bus would now just make one more journey to pick up the milton children. the official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children, to see if they would like to take part in the new plan.51.what is the aim of the plan?a. to prevent the students road accidents. b. to relieve the traffic pressure.c. to save time for the parents and students. d. to help the parents save money.52. how can the local government arrange the new bus service at a low cost?a. by letting the bus run in the morning only. b. by limiting the number of the students.c. by getting the support from the headmaster. d. by linking the new bus service with the existing one.53.the new bus service will be paid for by _a. the parents . b. the local government c. the bus company d. the local government and the parents54.which of the following is possible if the plan is carried out?a. the bus company will make much more money.b. the children can choose whatever school they like.c. the parents can get rid of their worries.d. the students in impington school can have free bus rides.55. this passage is most probably _ .a. a personal letter b. an advertisement c. a headmasters report d. a newspaper article daw, isnt it cute? that, right there, is the officially accepted response to any animal contact the world over. animals are cute. theyre there to be photographed, loved, and occasionally fed. but you know what? not all animals are cute, or lovely, or even nice. some of them are a real pain in the neck.when you travel, you come into contact with all sorts of animals youve never heard of before. some of them are amazing creatures that youll talk about for the rest of your life. some of them are just annoying. so, at the risk of causing anger among animal lovers around the world, here are some of the worlds most annoying animals.vervet monkeys, south africayoull immediately notice two things about vervet monkeys: they have a bright blue bottom; and theyll steal any food thats not locked in a bank safe. i recently spent some time in south africa, and watched as monkey after monkey dived in from the trees and stole everyones food. get your own food, vervets! my sandwich was expensive!kea parrots, new zealand ks5ui have never seen one of these birds before but from what ive been told they are more annoying than a spoilt kid. from biting the paint off your car doors to stealing peoples passports, keas are probably the most curious, and therefore annoying, animals in the world. and theyre new zealanders. that makes sense!kangaroos, australiaanother well-known food-stealer, kangaroos are loved by tourists, eaten by australians, and generally enjoy making trouble for others. go on a camping trip anywhere in australia, and watch how long your bags of food last. turn your back for 15 minutes and the camp will look like thieves have turned the place upside down.grizzly bears, usathey look pretty cute, grizzly bears. you almost want to go up and give them a hug. unfortunately, it wouldnt end well. in fact, one of the worlds most huggable creatures is also the one most likely to kill you just because it can. oh, and itll steal your picnic basket, too.56. which of the following best describes the tone of the passage?a. humorous. b. angry. c. sad. d. frightening. 57. the author uses the underlined
