When drivers see this sign they must not go at more than thirty miles an hour. We see this sign when we get to parts of the country where there are many houses and other buildings, for example, when we are getting near a town. Thirty miles an hour is the speed limit. Number two is sign for the end of the speed limit. We are out of the town now and may go at more than thirty miles an hour.Number three is a sign that we are near a crossroads, that is, a place where two roads cross. We must drive carefully.Number four is a sign that there is a bend in the road. Again, we must drive slowly and carefully.Number five is a sign that there is a hill and number six is a sign that the roads get narrow. Drivers must go slowly and carefully.Number seven has the word “school” on it. This is a sign that there is a school at the side of the a street or road. Perhaps there are children going to school or leaving school. So drivers must look carefully and go slowly until they are past the school building.Number eight is a sign with the letter P on it. The letter P is for “parking.” A parking place is a place where drivers may leave their cars. If the driver of the a car wants to leave his car and go to the shops, he looks for this sign. Then he knows that he may leave his or her car there.33. Who will most probably read the passage?A People who drive badly. B People who are learning to drive.C People who drive well.

(B) Work is a part of living my grandparents understood that . They lived and worked on a farm that has been in my family for 150 years . They raised chickens for eggs , pigs and cattle for meat . Cows were kept for milk and the cream , from which Grandma made butter and cheese . What little yard they had became a garden .The Depression（经济大萧条） , therefore , didnt make much change in their lives . But it did bring an unending flow of men out of work , drifting from job to job , to the farm . The first to show up at the door of the kitchen was a man in rags . He took off his hat and quietly explained that he hadnt eaten for a while . Grandpa stood watching him a bit , then said , “Theres a stack of firewood against the fence behind the barn (谷仓). Ive been needing to get it moved to the other side of the fence . You have just about enough time to finish the job before lunch .”Grandma said a surprising thing happened . The man got a shine in his eyes and he hurried to the barn at once . She set another place at the table and made an apple pie . During lunch , the stranger didnt say much , but when he left , his shoulders had straightened . “Nothing ruins a man like losing his self-respect,” Grandpa later told me .Soon after , another man showed up asking for a meal . This one was dressed in a suit and carried a small old suitcase . Grandpa came out when he heard voices . He looked at the man and then offered a handshake .” There is a stack of firewood along the fence down behind the barn Ive been meaning to get it moved . Itd sure be a help to me . And wed be pleased to have you stay for lunch .” The fellow set his suitcase aside and neatly laid his coat on top . Then he set off to work .Grandma says she doesnt remember how many strangers they shared a meal with during those Depression days-or how many times that stack of wood got moved .37When he was asked to move a stack of firewood , the first man who asked for a meal got a shine in his eyes for he was glad that .

He studied the observations of comets which other scientists had made. The orbit of one particular comet was a very difficult mathematical problem. He could not figure it out. Neither could other scientists who dealt with such problems.However, Halley had a friend named Isaac Newton, who was a brilliant mathematician. Newton thought he had already worked out that problem, but he could not find the papers on which he had done it. He told Halley that the orbit of a comet had the shape of an ellipse.Now Halley set to work, He figured out the orbits of some of the comets that had been observed by scientists. He made a surprising discovery. The comets that had appeared in the years 1531, 1607 and 1682 all had the same orbit. Yet their appearances had been 75 to 76 years apart.This seemed very strange to Halley. Three different comets followed the same orbit. The more Halley thought about, the more he thought that there had not been three different comets, as people thought. He decided that they had simply seen the same comet three times. The comet had gone away and had come back again.It was an astonishing idea! Halley felt certain enough to make a prediction of what would happen in the future. He decided that this comet would appear in the year 1758. There were 53 years to go before Halleys prediction could be tested.In 1758 the comet appeared in the sky. Halley did not see it, for he had died some years before. Ever since then that comet had been called Halleys comet, in his honour.41Halley made his discovery_.Aby doing experimentsBby means of his own careful observationCby using the work of other scientistsDby chance42Halley made a surprising but correct prediction in the year_.A1704 B1705C1706 D170743This text in general is about_.AHalley and other scientists Bthe orbit of a cometCNewton and Halley DHalley and his discovery44Which of the following is TRUE?AEdmund Halley was an American scientist.BHalley made his discovery by doing experiment.CIsaac Newton was a famous mathematician.DThe orbit of a comet had the shape of an around.C2He is regarded as having one of the brightest minds on the planet. But outstanding astrophysicist(天体物理学家) Stephen Hawking has admitted that he did not learn to read until he was eight years old.In a public lecture at the Royal Albert Hall, Professor Hawking also admitted that he was not active in studying while at Oxford University, where he studied physics, and that only the diagnosis that he might die young from motor neurone(神经元) disease made him concentrate on his work.Professor Hawking said：“My sister Philippa could read by the age of 4 but then she was definitely brighter than me.” He said that he was unexceptional at school and was never further than halfway up his class.
