Here is one of the letters she wrote to her parents from the school:Wentworth Girls schoolBeachsideJuly 20th Dearest Mom and Dad,Im afraid I have some very bad news for you. I have been very naughty and the school principal is very angry with me. She is going to write to you. You must come and take me away from here. She does not want me in the school and longer.The trouble started last night when I was smoking in bed. This is against the rules, of course. We are not supposed to smoke at all.As I was smoking， I heard footsteps coming towards the room. I did not want a teacher to catch me smoking, so I threw cigarette away.Unfortunately, the cigarette fell into the waste-paper basket, which caught fire.There was a curtain near the waste-paper basket which caught fire, too. Soon the whole room was burning.The principal phoned for the fire department. The school is a long way from the town and by the time the fire department arrived, the whole school was in flames. Many of the girls are in the hospital.The principal says that the fire was all my fault and you must pay for the damage. She will send you a bill for about a million dollars.Im very sorry about this.Much love,SarahP. S. None of the above is true, but I have failed my exams. I just want you to know how had things could have been!56. Why did Sarah write home?A. To tell her parents about the fire.B. To ask for a lot of money.C. To tell her parents she had failed her exams.D. To tell her parents she had to leave school.57. Why did Sarah tell her parents the story about the fire？A. She wanted to worry them.B. She wanted to make them laugh.C. She wanted to make them less angry at the real news.D. She wanted to warn them about what the principal was going to do.58. The letter before the P. S. was _.A. mostly trueB. partly trueC. all trueD. completely untrue59. Sarah said the principal was angry because _.A. she had failed her examsB. it was her fault that had caused the fireC. he had not made the phone call in timeD. she had been caught smoking in bedBI am a person who does not like to wait in line. However, I realize anger will get me nowhere. Considering this, I have decided to turn my frustration(沮丧) to productive ends. In short, I am constantly hunting around for what I call “waiting in line books”, especially those that are designed for being read in snippets(文摘), so there is no extended story line to lose track of. Another requirement is that they be small enough to slip neatly into my back pocket.The other day I went to the supermarket and was surprised to see that the place was crowded with shoppers, but no worries. I parked my cart behind five others and pulled out my vocabulary builder. Within a few seconds I was totally absorbed, and rather than seething at the 15 minutes it took to advance to the cashier, I learned that nankeen is “a yellow cotton cloth”, or, in the plural, “trousers made of it”. The acquisition of new words led me into a place where I would otherwise not have enjoyed myself so much.Once, at a yard sale, I found two small pocket books titled Sidelights on American History (copyright 1919). The seller approached as I looked through the pages. “You want them?”“First I need to see if they fit,” I told him. He watched as I slipped Volume 1 into my back pocket. “Perfect. Ill take them.”10 minutes later, I was at the carwash, where the waiting line was six vehicles long. Thank goodness for my books! By the time my car was being soaped and power sprayed, I had learned about the Annapolis Convention, the early life of Aaron Bur.The more the world demands that I wait, the more I learn from my waiting library. In fact, I have become so fond of my “waiting” books that my spirits actually rise when I see a long line I must stand in. It is most likely I would be regarded as a bookish, lonely soul. But little would they realize that I was enjoying the company of those “waiting” books. And just as Disraeli said, “Everything comes if a man will only wait”.60. When buying a book the writer _.A. has his own rules B. prefers books of small sizeC. chooses books by famous writers D. has no particular appetite61. The truth behind the story is that the writer wants to tell us _.A. reading is not only important but also practical B. one is expected to learn to adjust oneself rather than complainC. reading is the best way to kill timeD. knowledge is power and wisdom is fortune62. The underlined expression in paragraph 3 “seething at” probably means _.A. angry atB. delighted at C. surprised atD. excited at63. The sentence in Paragraph 2 “there is no extended story line to lose track of” shows that _.A. what the writer reads is not difficult to understandB. the writer likes to read interesting stories while waiting in lineC. the writer can stop wherever needed with no plot to leave outD. the writer does not necessarily reach his understandingC Arthritis, stroke, osteoporosis(骨关节炎), heart disease and dementia are what weve got to look forward to in old age. But conditions like these dont have to be impossible to avoid, says New Zealand cook Robyn Martin. She firmly believes that we are what we eat and we can choose to consume foods that can slow the aging process and even prevent certain illnesses. Thats why her latest cookbook is devoted to recipes that use ingredients with a large number of anti-aging benefits. Stop the Clockthe Anti-Aging cookbook looks at a variety of health problemsfrom brain decline and joint aches and pains to heart disease and high cholesterol(胆固醇)then lists foods that can improve or prevent them and offers a selection of recipes using those ingredients. “I wrote this book so I can offer people lots of information about foods that can give them a better old age.”Six foods that can help slow the aging process:1. LentilsThe important substance included in lentils is the one that can help you avoid the unpleasant symptoms of menopause(更年期), like mood swings. 2. BlueberriesBlueberries slow and, in some cases, reverse damage in aging brains. They are also rich in some chemicals which keep your looking young and help relieve arthritic(关节炎的) pain.3. CarrotsCarrots have high levels of beta-carotene, which changes to vitamin A in the body. So they may help with memory, do good to the skin and are also thought to lower cholesterol. 4. OatsThe protein, calcium and phosphorus in oats all help build strong bones and connective tissue. The fibre they contain helps lower cholesterol and high blood pressure. 5. SpinachSpinach is a good source of two important substances involved in protecting the DNA in our cells from oxication(氧化). It not only helps to strengthen the memory and turn off genes that can step up aging, but also can help improve the symptoms of osteoarthritis. 6. SoySoy products help lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels and are rich in phytoestrogens, which can help prevent hormone-related cancers. Soy can also be helpful to the skin, making it firm and youthful.Did you know? Tomatoes contain a powerful substance which is not only useful for preventing problems in the heart, and lungs, but also prevents diseases like cancer. To gain the most benefit, tomatoes should be cooked.64. If memory often fails you, which of the following combination will be good to you? A. soy and carrotsB. oats and soy C. lentils and blueberriesD. carrots and spinach 65. This passage mainly deals with _.A. foods and ingredients B. foods and healthC. foods and nutritionD. foods and diseases66. The passage is written _.A. to tell the readers recipes play an important role in keeping healthyB. to advertise the foods mentioned in the passageC. to tell the readers how to slow the aging processD. to tell the readers how to cure some diseases by taking
