B.6. C.8. D.11.B. Charlie is a teacher and his wife, Maria is an artist. The night before last, just before the longest day of the year, Charlie was sitting in a deckchair enjoying the warm summer air when Maria touched his shoulder and he could tell immediately she was a little worried about something. He asked her what the matter was and she replied that there was a strange thing on the jacket that was hanging in the bedroom. They had both lived in the West Indies (西印度群岛) and had seen a lot of strange creatures in their house before. But now they were living in England and so Charlie just laughed and said he would have a look at the “thing”.He walked to the bedroom. He saw a jacket hanging in the bedroom and went up to it to have a closer look at the “thing”. The moment he touched it, the thing sprang into life. Now Charlie experiences fear like the rest of us but when this creature opened its wings, he jumped out of his skin and ran screaming from the room like a small child doing about 100 miles an hour.For a moment the next-door neighbours thought that Charlie was murdering his wife because of the noise they could hear. In fact, it was a bat that frightened Charlie.Eventually Charlie managed to trap the bat in a box and took it to the garden to let the bat fly. Maria, who had been playing the guitar while Charlie was upstairs, asked Charlie if he had found out what the thing was. “Oh, nothing to worry about”, he said casually hoping that the terror could not be seen in his eyes, “it was just a bat.”24.Why was Maria a little worried one night?A.Because she couldnt find her guitar.B.Because she saw something strange.C.Because it was too hot for her.D.Because she had quarreled with her husband.25.The underlined part “jumped out of his skin” in the second paragraph probably means _.A.was very frightenedB.was very excitedC.threw off his clothesD.stood up26.What happened to the bat?A.It was killed by Charlie.B.It was badly wounded.C.It was set free by Charlie.D.It was kept as a pet.27.It can be inferred that _.A.the bat wouldnt come to Charlies room again because it was frightenedB.the neighbours would report to the police about Charlie murdering the batC.Charlie was afraid that his wife would laugh at him if she knew the truthD.Maria heard her husband screaming downstairs and became frightenedCPublic transport is declining in the rich world. To those who have to squeeze onto the number 25 bus in London, or the A train in New York, the change might not be noticeable. But public transport is becoming less busy in those places, and the number of passengers is falling in almost every American city. That is despite healthy growth in urban populations and employment.Although transport agencies blame their unpopularity on things like roadworks and broken signals, it seems more likely that they are being out-competed(超/胜出). App-based taxi services like Uber and Lyft are more comfortable and convenient than trains or buses. Cycling is nicer than it was, and rental bikes are more widely available. Cars are cheap to buy, thanks to cut-rate loans, and ever cheaper to run. Online shopping, home working and office-sharing mean more people can avoid travelling altogether.The competition is only likely to grow. More than one laboratory is developing new transport technologies and applications. Silicon Valley invented Uber and, more recently, apps that let people rent electric scooters(滑板车) and then abandon them on the pavement. China created sharing-bicycles and battery-powered e-bikes, both of which are spreading.Transport agencies should accept the upstarts, and copy them. Cities tend either to ignore app-based services or to try to push them off the streets. That is understandable, given the rules-are-for-losers attitude of firms(公司) like Uber. But it is an error.It is doubtful that most people make hard distinctions between public and private transport. They just want to get somewhere, and there is a cost in time, money and comfort. An ideal system would let them move across a city for a single payment, transferring from trains to taxis to bicycles as needed.Building a platform to allow that is hard, and requires much sweet-talking of traditional networks as well as technology firms. It is probably the secret to keeping cities moving.28.What is the change in public transport in big cities?A.It is becoming busier.B.It is getting less popular.C.There are fewer traffic delays.D.There is more new transport.29.In the authors opinion, the reason for the decline of public transport is that _.A.there are roadworks and broken signalsB.people are becoming healthier and employedC.cars and bikes are more and more availableD.transport agencies are seemingly less competitive30.How does the author develop his idea in Paragraph 3?A.By giving examplesB.By providing research resultsC.By stating argumentsD.By comparing different approaches31.According to the text, the key to keeping cities moving is _.A.to develop an ideal system that satisfies everyoneB.to build a platform that appeals to transport agenciesC.to provide people with more means of transportationD.to cater for(迎合) both traditional networks and technology firmsDIn summer the extreme heat often makes people sweaty and restless. While people are annoyed by it, experts suggest summer is the best season to discharge (排放) your bodys toxins (毒素) and recover your energy.One popular option is hot-stone massage (按摩). Therapists（治疗学家） use smooth and heated stones, usually river rocks, to massage certain parts of the body, or place them on key points of the body. The warmth of the hot stones will improve blood circulation and also help relax muscles, while sweating is also believed to be good for discharging the bodys toxins.Another popular option is hot-stone baths. The hot-stone bath will help the body discharge toxins and humidity that accumulated during the last winter. Summer is the best season to build a good body. Rather than use water or steam to heat and wash the body, people simply wear a coat or something comfortable, and then lie on heated stone tablets made of hot stones, which are warmed to around 45. The body will gradually warm up and blood circulation will also be improved. More sweat will come out quickly. The sweat is smooth and fresh, not smelly like that released after sports activities. Such baths bring a number of health benefits, such as anti-aging, improved blood circulation and stress relief. The slimming effect of dieting can even be promoted.Using hot stones for healing dates back to ancient times, but the modern renewal of hot-stone massage is generally credited to Mary Nelson, a native of Tucson, Arizona, America, whose trademark is “LaStone Therapy”.The therapy is gaining wide popularity with many people, especially those who have jobs in cool air-conditioned rooms. The hot-stone therapy can help cure many diseases, including back pain.32.What do people use to release toxins in our body according to the text?A.Washing the body with cold water.B.Discharging（释放/排出） lots of sweat.C.Relaxing musclesD.Lying on the warm beds.33.What can we know from the text?A.Sports have greater effects on the health than hot-stone massage.B.There are no toxins and humidity in the body in summer.C.Using water of about 45 to wash the body is good for the health.D.People should take advantage of summer to improve their health.34.What can be learned about the hot-stone therapy（疗法)?A.It was invented by Mary Nelson, an American.B.It successfully cured many people of cancer.C.It is popular with people with its excellent effects.D.It can help people avoid sweating too much in hot summer.35.Which of the following could be the best title for the text?A.The origin and development of the hot-stone therapyB.The amazing functions of the hot-stone therapyC.A healthy and comfortable lifestyleD.How to live comfortably in summer三、七选五.根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The wife-carrying World Championship has been celebrated in a small town in central Finland since 1992.
