c和d)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑athe medical world is gradually realizing that the quality of the environment in hospitals may play a significant role in the process of recovery from illness. as part of a nationwide effort in britain to bring art out of the galleries and into public places, some of the countrys most talented artists have been called in to transform older hospitals and to soften the hard edges of modern buildings. of the 2,500 national health service hospitals in britain, almost 100 now have significant contemporary art in corridors, waiting areas and treatment rooms. these recent initiatives(首创) owe a great deal to one artist, peter senior who set up his studio at a manchester hospital in northeastern england during the early 1970s. he felt the artist had lost his place in modern society and that art should be enjoyed by a wider audience. a typical hospital waiting room might have as many as 5,000 visitors each week. what a better place to hold regular exhibitions of art! senior held the first exhibition of his own paintings in the outpatients waiting area of the manchester hospital in 1975. believed to be britains first hospital artist, senior was so much in demand that he was soon joined by a team of six young art school graduates. the effect is striking. now in the corridors and waiting rooms the visitor experiences a full view of fresh colors, playful images and restful courtyards. the quality of the environment may reduce the need for expensive drugs when a patient is recovering from an illness. a study has shown that patients who had a view onto a garden needed half the number of strong pain killers compared with patients who had no view at all or only a brick wall to look at. 36the underlined part to soften the hard edges of modern buildings in paragraph 2 means_. ato decorate hospitals with art collections bto make the corners of hospital buildings round cto change peoples attitude toward hospitals dto replace the old buildings with modern buildings 37peter senior is a(n) _. adoctor interested in artsbartist who refuses to hold art exhibitions in hospitals cpioneer in introducing art into hospitals dartist who owns a great deal of property 38the improvement of the hospital environment seems to be effective in _. a. making it unnecessary to give drugs to patients b. helping the modern artists regain their status in society c. calling in more talented artists to hospitalsd. helping patients recovering from illnesses 39. the writers attitude towards the effect of art exhibitions in hospitals is _. a. suspicious b. positive c. neutral(中立的) d. unfavorablebchina is a land of bicycles. at least it was back in 1992 when i traveled the country. back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. millions of them, all black. cars were rare. yet since my arrival in beijing last year, ive found the opposite is true. there are millions of cars. however, people still use their bicycles to get around. for many, its the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. bicycles also come in different colors-silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.its fun watching people biking. they rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道). bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just cant provide.eager to be part of this aspect of chinese culture, i decided to buy a bicycle. great weather accompanied my great buy. i immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.my first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). to be safe, i stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. i didnt want to get hit. so i took the ride carefully.crossing the streets was the biggest problem. it was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the united states. the streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.i finally made it home. the feeling on the bicycle was amazing. the air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. i was sitting on top of the world as i passed by places and people. biking made me feel alive.40. according to the author, why are bicycles still popular in china today?a. because they are traditional and safe.b. because they are convenient and inexpensive.c. because they are colorful and available.d. because they are fast and environment friendly.41. the author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended _.a. to ride it for funb. to use it for transportc. to experience local skillsd. to improve his riding skills42. how

patternharry is eighteen now. he studies in a middle school. his parents like him very much and hope he can become a famous man. so they often tell him to study hard and they do all for him. they call him at six in the morning, after breakfast his father takes him to school in a car and in the afternoon, as soon as the young man comes back, the supper is ready. of course, he never washes his clothes or goes to buy something in the shops.once harrys father was sent to london on business. he would stay there for half a year. leaving, he told his wife to take good care of their son. the woman had to get up earlier and did all what her husband did before. and two months later she was so tired that she was ill in bed. now the young man got into trouble. he couldnt do any housework. he had to do as his mother told him. even he didnt know where to get on the bus!yesterday harrys mother found his shoes were worn out and told him to buy a new pair in the shop. but he didnt know how to choose. the woman had a sigh(叹息) and gave him a shoe pattern(鞋样) and told him to buy a pair of shoes himself. its saturday today and harry doesnt go to school. with a policemans help, he found a shop. the shopkeeper was friendly to him. the man brought a lot of shoes and asked him to choose. when he was trying on a pair, suddenly he remembered something and took them off. the man was surprised and asked, “whats the matter, young man?”“im sorry, ive left the shoe pattern at home!”44. _ always does some housework in the morning. a. harrys fatherb. harrys motherc. harryd. nobody45. harrys parents

inventors? what about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)？shouldnt we know who they are?joan mclean think so. in fact, mclean, a professor of physics at mountain university in range, feels so strongly about this matter that shes developed a course on the topic. in addition to learning “who” invented “what”, however, mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the “why” and ”how” questions. according to mclean,” when students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”so, just what is the story behind the windshield wiper? well, mary anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to new york city. the day was cold and stormy, but anderson still wanted to see the sights, so she jumped aboard a streetcar. noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield, she found herself wondering why there couldnt be a built-in device for cleaning the window. still wondering about this when she returned home to birmingham, alabama, anderson started drafting out solutions. one of her ideas, a lever(操作杆)on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside, became the first windshield wiper. today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations，its hard to imagine driving without garrett a. morgans traffic light. its equally impossible to picture a world without katherine j. blodgetts innovation that makes glass invisible, can you picture life without clear windows and

secondary education in the united states comes from the federal government. 51._states have been required to show progress through yearly testing.but states say testing tells only part of the story about efforts by schools and students to improve. so the obama administration has eased the limits on states in measuring performance.52._this new measurement tool is called the colorado growth model.
