In comes one,” she said to the man in the house. The thief was so frightened that he hurriedly crawled out of the house and said to the one waiting outside, “She found me when I was just in.” But the thief outside didnt believe him, so he said, “Let us try to crawl into the house together.” At that time two mice happened to crawl into the house, too. The woman saw the mice and shouted, “In come two, catch them!” The two thieves were terribly frightened. The man in the house said, “You saw them come in but where are they? I will catch them tonight.” The two thieves started running away at once.The two thieves wanted to make it clear whether they had been found or not the night before. The next day they acted as men selling sweet potatoes and came before the house. The man and the woman were ploughing in their fields. The rope broke and the woman came home for a rope. She saw two men selling sweet potatoes and wanted to buy some. She picked out two which looked like mice. At the time the man couldnt wait for her any longer in the fields and he ran back from the fields to hurry her up. The woman showed the sweet potatoes to the man and said, “How they look like the two of last night.” The man said, “I asked you to fetch a rope, why dont you hurry for it?” The two thieves ran away very quickly without their sweet potatoes.51.

To keep out of trouble, the Weather Bureau says,“Any resemblance between hurricane names and the names of particular girls is purely accidental（偶然的）.” Some women became angry because hurricanes are given their names, but many other women are proud to see their names make headlines. They dont even care that they are the names of destructive storms. Because more women seem to like it than dislike it, the Weather Bureau has decided to continue using girls names for hurricanes.In some ways a hurricane is like a person. After it is born, it grows and develops, then becomes old and dies. Each hurricane has a character of its own. Each follows its own path through the world, and people remember it long after it gone. So it is natural to give hurricanes names, and to talk about them almost if they were alive.56.What happens to girls named Hazel according to the passage?A. They suffer from hurricanes. B. The Weather Bureau look for them.C. Others often make fun of them. D. They cant find boyfriend.57.The underlined word“resemblance”probably means _.A. trouble B. differenceC. samenessD. success58.

Many women want to be known.D. All the hurricanes are caused by women.59. Public opinions make the Weather Bureau _.A. consider the disagreement of some women B. go on naming hurricanes after womenC. name hurricanes after men D. look for a new method to name hurricanes60.It is natural to give hurricane names because _.A. they become old and die B. all of them should be rememberedC. each hurricane has its own day to come D. each hurricane has its own characterCIf you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak; when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people cant read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things; they cannot write down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised. So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.61. The main reason for ones poor memory is that _. A. his father or mother may have a poor memory B. he does not use his name or legs for some timeC. his memory is not often used D. he cant read or write62. If you do not use your arms or legs for some time _. A. you cant use them any more B. they will become strongerC. they become weak and wont become strong until you use them again.D. they will become neither stronger nor weaker63. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.B. Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you dont give it enough chance for practice.C. Dont learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory.D. A good memory comes from more practice.64. Some people cant read or write, but they usually have better memories, because _. A. they have save much trouble B. they have saved much time to remember thingsC. they have to use their memories all the timeD. they cant write everything in a little notebook65. Which is the best title for this passage? A. Dont Stop Using Your Arms or Legs B. How to Have a Good MemoryC. Strong Arms and Good Memories D.
