The purpose of these bridges is to enable pedestrians to cross roads safely. Over- head bridges are used in very much the same way as zebra crossings. They are more ef- ficient although less convenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps. This is inconvenient especially to older people. When pedestrians use an overhead bridge, they do not hold up traffic. However, when they cross a busy road using a ze- bra crossing, traffic is held up, this is why the government has built many overhead bridges to help pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time. The government of Beijing has spent a large amount of money in building these bridges. For their own safety, pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of risking their lives by dashing across the road. Old people, however, may find it a little difficult to climb up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic. Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. Pedestrians, both old and young, should make it a habit to use them. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and loss of life. 1. What is the advantage （优点）of overhead bridges mentioned in this passage? A. Taller trucks can pass under them. B. Pedestrians can climb up and have a view of the city. C. They are safer for pedestrians and can keep traffic moving at the same fame. D. They are easier and more convenient for the pedestrians.2. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? A. Overhead bridges are found in every part of Beijing. B.Overhead bridges are only found in center of Beijing. C.Overhead bridges are found in many parts of big cities in China. D. Overhead bridges are found in places where traffic is heavy. 3.Theunderlined words a zebra crossing probably mean _. A. a safe place across a road for pedestrians to walk across the road.B. A wild animal from Africa that looks like a horse with broad dark brown and white stripes on its body C. A safe place across a road for zebra to walk across the road D. A safe place across a road for children to play a game.4. What is the writers attitude（态度） towards overhead bridge? A. It is inconvenient for older people to walk across the road. B. It is much safer for pedestrians thought climbing up and down the steps may be a little difficult. C. An overhead bridge is more beautiful than a zebra crossing. D. To build overhead bridges is the business of the government.(B)The Hawaiian Islands are situated（位于） about two thousand miles away from North America, right in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Despite the distance the Islands actually make up the fiftieth state of the United States. The Islands were all formed by volcano（火山） eruption and on the largest of the islands, Hawai, or the Big Island, there are still two active volcanoes, the Mauna Loa and the Kilauea, which still erupt every few years. On the Hawaiian islands the natives have a particularly strange way of indicating(指明) directions. They dont use the north, south, east and west system common to the rest of the world. They use the mauka and makai system. Mauka means mountain.The mountains in Hawaii are always at the center of the islands, as these are volcanic is lands. Makai means the sea. The islands are small and the system is simple. Wherever you want to visit, it can always be described in terms of where it lies in relation to the mountains and the sea. A typical conversation(谈话) between a native Hawaiian and a visitor might go as follows. VISITOR： Excuse me! Could you tell me where the Sheraton Hotel is? HAWAIIAN; Well . Let me see ! From here its two blocks mauka,and then oneblock makai. You cant miss it!1. This article would be most likely to appear in which of the following? A. A novel B. A collection of storiesC.

Many of these aqueducts are still standing today. The Romans also built great pipes under the ground to carry away the sewage. In Rome, one of these sewage pipes (sewers) is still used today; it is 2,000 years old. The Roman Emperors even set up a government health service. They built the first great public hospitals in Europe, and they paid doctors to look after poor people. Then the Roman Empire fell to pieces, these civilized methods of treatment disappeared from most of Europe, for more than a thousand years. People went back to the old ways. They lived in dirty conditions which helped to cause diseases（疾病）; and they asked God to cure the disease. They shut mentally sick people in prisons. Or they burnt them alive because they were supposed to have magic powers. But the work of the Greek and Roman doctors was not lost. Over a thousand yearsago, they Arabs moved into many of the Mediterranean countries. They took big parts of the old Roman lands. They translated the Greek and Roman medical books into Arabic. Arab doctors themselves make many new discoveries. When civilization(文明) at last came back to Europe, men once again translated the Greek and Roman works on medicine into Latin. Slowlyvery slowly European doctors discovered again the things that the Greeks and Romans had known so long ago. Slowly, they began to make new discoveries. They found out more about the way the body works-the way our blood goes round our bodies, the way our nerves（神经） send messages from our brains to our muscles, the way these muscles move our bodies.1.

Messages can be sent across theocean by radio or by cable(电缆). The cable lies on the sea bottom and it has to have very good insulation. If any part of it is weak, the water will get through and stop all signals .The first cable under the sea was between England and France. It was laid（放置） in 1851. In 1851 engineers tried to lay a cable across the Atlantic Ocean, but they met alot of difficulties. Halfway across the Atlantic the cable broke, and the ship that was laying it had to return. Kelvin advised that another cable ought to be laid. It was made ready, and put on board a big ship. Kelvin and his friends traveled with it and after many days of hard work, they reached America without breaking the cable. Kelvin himself sent the firstmessage by cable from America to Britain. Unfortunately only 732 messages were sent through this cable before it broke.The next cable was laid in 1866, and this time there were no problems. The shipthat laid it was the Great Eastern, one of the strongest ships that have ever been built.It was driven by powerful engines and also by sails . 1.
