We had been driving for 2 days in the middle of winter (the cars heater didnt work), and we had taken a route that was very desolate.There was nothing around for milesno cars, buildings, or signs of civilization.Suddenly, our car started losing power and the gauges(仪表) went all out of order.We saw a light in the distance and managed to roll to a stop in front of this property that looked like a small simple house.Our cell phones had not gotten reception for many miles, and it was freezing outside, so I didnt know if we were going to make it out of this situation alive. My husband got out of the car to see if there was something he could do to get us rolling again, but it was not looking good.A short while later, a man came out of the residence and spoke with my husband a bit before inviting us all into his home.He and his wife took us in, fed us, and made us feel at home as we struggled to find some way to get to our destination, which was still a few hours drive away. We were able to call a friend and get a ride, leaving our broken car behind, but not before the couple gave us food and water for our journey.One week later, this dear sweet couple pulled our car all the way to our place and refused to take anything in return, except for us to pay it forward.and we have, and will continue to do so forever.36We can learn from the text that the family _.Ahad a hopeless futureBwas in difficulty in financeCsuffered from a company crashDwanted to turn to their relatives for help37The underlined word “desolate” probably means _.Adeserted BadvancedCsmooth Dmuddy38Knowing that the wagon had broken down, the author _.Acalled her friends several miles away for helpBstopped the car in front of a simple service stationCwas afraid that they couldnt overcome the difficultyDencouraged her husband and children to be confident39We can infer from the text that the family _.Agot out of their financial difficultyBmet with more troubles after thatCcame back to thank the couple who had helped themDfollowed the couples example in return for their helpBTwentyfive years ago if you made a trip to the local library and searched for articles on global warming, youd probably come up with a few from the leading magazines in the world.As an Internet search on global warming now shows, the subject has become as rooted in peoples mind as Madonna or microwave cooking.With the possible exception of another world war, a giant planet, or an incurable disease, global warming may be the largest danger to our planet.For decades human factories and cars have sent billions of tons of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, and the climate has begun to show some signs of warming.If steps are not taken soon to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide sent into the atmosphere, the result could terribly affect human life.We have already seen growing destruction, such as drought and death in Sudan, flooding in Asia, bush fires in Indonesia, and fierce winter storms in central Europe.The Republic of Maldives is barely above sea level.Its 250, 000 citizens are scattered across 1, 200 islands in the Indian Ocean.A strong typhoon could spell the end for the entire country, as could continued rising sea levels.The entire population would have to be moved away as the country disappears under the sea.The greenhouse effect is a naturally occurring phenomenon that keeps our planet at a comfortable temperature averaging 60. Since the midnineteenth century, however, carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has increased nearly 30% because of the increased use of fossil fuels to run cars, heat homes and power factories.Without controlling, the amount of carbon dioxide by 2100 may increase by 30%150% and could lift the average global temperature by up to 2.5 in the next 50 years.40With the first paragraph, the author intends to _.Ascold people for not paying enough attention to global warming Bdraw peoples attention to global warmingChow to search for the articles on global warmingDpoint out the serious effect of global warming41Global warming could affect human life in the following ways EXCEPT _.Aproducing more greenhouse gasesBcausing more floodsCmaking winter storms fiercerDstarting more bush fires42The Republic of Maldives _.Ahas moved away their citizensBwill be more likely to be destroyed by a strong typhoon than by the rising sea levelCis mostly likely to be destroyed by the rising sea levelDwill have to move away most of their population43Why is the Republic of Maldives especially mentioned in the passage?ABecause smaller countries are easier to be affected by global warming.BBecause seaside countries are in danger of disappearing.CBecause its necessary to rescue a country before the sea level rises.DBecause the serious result of global warming could end a whole country.CWhen a dirty and untidy orange cat showed up in the prison yard, I was one of the first to go there and pet him.I hadnt touched a cat or a dog in over 20 years.I spent at least 20 minutes, knelt down behind the kitchen as the cat rolled around, relaxed.What he was expressing outwardly, I was feeling inwardly.It was an amazing bit of grace to feel him under my hand and note that I was reaching a life or another creature with something as simple as my care.Over the next few days, there were other prisoners responding to the cat.They stood around talking and taking turns petting the cat.These were guys you wouldnt usually find talking to each other.Several times I saw an officer in the group, not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners.Bowls of milk and water appeared along with bread, wisely placed under the edge of the dustbin to keep the birds from getting it.The cat was obviously homeless and in pretty bad shape.People said that the cat came to the right place.Hes getting treated like a king.This was true, but as I watched I was also thinking about what the cat was doing for us.There was a lot of talk about whats wrong with prisons in America.We need more programs.We need more psychologists or treatment of various kinds.Some may even talk about making prisons more kind.But I think what we really need is a chance to practise our own kindness.Not receive it, but give it.After more than two decades here, I know kindness is not a value thats encouraged.Its often seen as a weakness.Instead, the culture encourages keeping your head down, minding your own business, and never letting yourself be weak.The cat did my heart good to see the effect he had on me and the men here.By simply saying “I need some help here”, he did something important for us.He needed us.And we needed to be needed.44From the text, we can learn that the author was _.Athe owner of the catBan animal protectorCa prison officerDa prisoner45Which of the following statements is TRUE?AThe cat was dirty because it was kept in prison.BThe officer in the prison enjoyed petting the cat.CThe prisoners prepared food for both the cat and birds.DThe author realised the importance of practising kindness.46We can infer from the third paragraph that _.Ashowing love to others can make prisoners strongBthe American prison culture will be improvedCthe author is not content with the prison cultureDcaring for others is encouraged in American prisons47What is the best title for the text?ACaring Makes Us HumanBPrison Culture Is ImportantCAnimals Need CareDEveryone Needs to Be Cared forDI am sitting in front of the computer.I need to write what I am going to do during the beautiful fall coming up in Vermont. I am_nervous_because_I_think_that_my_life_at_this moment_ depends_on_how_much_I_learned_in_the_intensive_English(英语精读) during_the last_four_months.All my life I have been a fighter.When I was five years old, I had a very serious convulsion(痉挛) with high fever.The doctor gave the wrong medicine to me, which caused me to lose my speech.The doctor told my mother that the medicine caused a lot of problems with my speech.He thought that I would never be able to speak well again or to learn another language.But my mother sent me to a lot of teachers.Finally, she sent me to Maria.She was a very nice person.She believed in me, and thought that I would speak again.The most amazing thing was that she taught me to read my mouth.I remember that I spent hours in front of the mirror and tried to repeat every word that I said.Imagine losing your speech and having to learn everything again.For me it was like being born again.I learned to talk and speak my native language：Spanish.Now, I am studying English in Vermont.I cant believe that I am learning another language.But, I am!I am crying because studying here makes me feel happy, and it makes me smile when I remember what the doctors said to my mom：“She will never be able to speak or to learn another language.”Now, Im thinking about the beautiful fall leaf that is coming and what is going to happen to me.Just as every leaf is going to fall from the trees, I am going to take every step in my studies and in my life.I try to think about this and be a grateful person.48From the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1, we can infer that the author _.Ahas learnt much from having English lessonsBwonders if she can do well in English writingCworries about the progress in English studyDfeels eager to have a good time on an autumn day49What can we learn from Paragraph 2?AThe author always had convulsions in her childhood.BThe wrong treatment made the author unable to speak.CThe doctor tried his best to make the author speak.DIt was the convulsion that led the author to have a fever.50Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?AThe author was discouraged faced with the disaster.BHer mothers persistence played a great role in the authors success.CMaria found it difficult to teach the author at first.DThe doctors words made the authors mother completely disappointed.51Why could the author get back the ability of speaking?AHer mother encouraged her to practice every day.BShe learnt quickly with a great talent for speech.CMaria taught her a method and she worked hard.DShe was inspired by the doctor and her teacher.EWhen a group of people work together to reach the same goal, they make up a team.Teamwork is very important as men try to learn more about the world in which we live.In 1957, a team of eighteen men from the United States spent the winter at the South Pole.They were there to study the secrets of the earth and the sky.The South Pole is at the bottom of the world.During its winter, the sun never rises.The men had to face the darkness of a sixmonth night, as well as the worlds worst weather.The men lived in a group of buildings joined together b
