Lisa, 25, had a lot to do at work, plus visitors on the way: her parents were coming in for Thanksgiving from her hometown. But as she hurried down the subway stairs, she started to feel uncomfortably warm. By the time she got to the platform, Lisa felt weak and tired-maybe it hadnt been a good idea to give blood the night before, she thought. She rested herself against a post close to the tracks. Several yards away, Frank, 43, and his girlfriend, Jennifer, found a spot close to where the front of the train would stop. They were deep in discussion about a house they were thinking of buying. But when he heard the scream, followed by someone yelling, “Oh, my God, she fell in!” Frank didnt hesitate. He jumped down to the tracks and ran some 40 feet toward the body lying on the rails. “No! Not you! ” his girlfriend screamed after him. She was right to be alarmed. By the time Frank reached Lisa, he could feel the tracks shaking and see the light coming. The train was about 20 seconds from the station. It was hard to lift her. She was just out. But he managed to raise her the four feet to the platform so that bystanders could hold her by the grins and drag her away from the edge. That was where Lisa briefly regained consciousness, felt herself being pulled along the ground, and saw someone else holding her purse. Lisa thought shed been robbed. A woman held her hand and a man gave his shirt to help stop the blood pouring from her head. And she tried to talk but she couldnt, and that was when she realized how much pain she was in. Police and fire officials soon arrived, and Frank told the story to an officer. Jennifer said her boyfriend was calm on their 40 minute train ride downtownjust as he had been seconds after the rescue, which made her think about her reaction at the time. “I saw the train coming and I was thinking he was going to die, ”she explained. 41.

The passage is intended to _A. warn us of the danger in the subway B. show us how to save people in the subwayC. tell us about a subway rescue D. report a traffic accidentBWe once had a poster competition in our fifth grade art class. “You could win prizes, our teacher told us as she wrote the poster information on the blackboard. She passed out sheets of construction paper while continuing, “The first prize is ten dollars. You just have to make sure that the words on the blackboard appear somewhere on your poster. ”We studied the board critically. Some of us looked with one eye and held up certain colors against the blackboard, rocking the sheets to the fight or left while we conjured up our designs. Others twisted their hair around their fingers or chewed their erasers while deep in thought. We had plans for that tendollar grand prize, each and every one of us. Im going to spend nine on candies, one hopeful would announce, while another practiced looking serious, wise and rich. Everyone in the class made a poster. Some of us used parts of those fancy paper napkins, while others used nothing but colored construction paper. Some of us used big designs, and some of us preferred to gather our art tidily down in one corner of our poster and let the space draw the viewers attention to it. Some of us would wander past the good students desks and then return to our own projects with a growing sense of hopelessness. It was yet another grown-up trick of the soil they seemed especially fond of making all of us believe we had a fair chance, and then alwaysalwaysrewarding the same old winners. I believe I drew a sailboat, but I cant say that with any certainty. I made it. I admired it. I determined it to be the very best of all of the posters I had seen, and then I turned it in. Minutes passed. No one came along to give me the grand prize, and then someone distracted me, and I probably never would have thought about that poster again. I was still sitting at my desk, thinking, What poster? When the teacher gave me an envelope with a ten-dollar bill in it and everyone in the class applauded for me. 46. What was the teachers requirement for the poster?A. It must appear in time. B. It must be done in class. C. It must be done on a construction sheet. D. It must include the words on the blackboard. 47. The underlined phrase in paragraph 3 most probably means _. A. formed an idea for B. made an outline forC. made some space for D. chose some colors for48. After the teachers words, all the students in the class _. A. 1ooked very serious B. thought they would be richC. began to think about their designs D. began to play games49. After seeing the good students designs, some students _. A. 1oved their own designs more B. thought they had a fair chanceC. put their own designs in a corner D. thought they would not win the prize50. We can infer from the passage that the author _. A. enjoyed grown-up tricks very much B. 1oved poster competitions very muchC. felt surprised to win the competition D. became wise and rich after the competitionCA few years ago I had an “aha!” moment regarding handwriting. I had in my hand a sheet of paper with handwritten instructions on it for some sort of editorial task. It occurred at first that I did not recognize the handwriting, and then I realized whose it must be. I finally became aware of the fact that I had been working with this colleague for at least a year, maybe two, and yet I did not recognize her handwriting at that point. It was a very important event in the computerization of lifea sign that the informal, friendly communication of people working together in an office had changed from notes in pen to instant messages and emails. There was a time when our workdays were filled with little letters, and we recognized one anothers handwriting the way we knew voices or faces. As a child visiting my fathers office, I was pleased to recognize, in little notes on the desks of his staff, the same handwriting I would see at home in the notes he would leave on the fridgeexcept that those notes were signed “dad” instead of “RFW”. All this has been on my mind because of the talk about The Rise and Fall of Handwriting, a book by Florey. She shows in her book a deep concern about the fall of handwriting and the failure of schools to teach children to write well, but many others argue that people in a digital age cant be expected to learn to hold a pen. I dont buy it. I dont want to see anyone cut off from the expressive, personal associations that a pen still promotes better than a digital keyboard does. For many a biographer, part of really getting to know their subjects is learning to read their handwriting. What some people advocate is teaching one of the many attractive handwritings based on the handwriting of 16th-century Italy. That may sound impossibly grandas if they want kids to learn to draw by copying classical paintings. However, they have worked in many school systems. 51. Why was the author surprised at not recognizing his colleagues handwriting?A. He had worked with his colleague long enough. B. His colleagues handwriting was so beautiful. C. His colleagues handwriting was so terrible. D. He still had a lot of work to do. 52. People working together in an office used to _. A. talk more about handwriting B. take more notes on workdaysC. know better one anothers handwriting D. communicate better with one another53. The authors father wrote notes in pen _. A. to both his family and his staff B. to his family in small lettersC. to his family on the fridge D. to his staff on the desk54. According to the author, handwritten notes _. A. are harder to teach in schools B. attract more attentionC. are used only between friends D. carry more message55. We can learn from the passage that the author _. A. thinks it impossible to teach handwriting B. does not want to lose handwritingC. puts the blame on the computer D. does not agree with FloreyDHow should one invest a sum of money in these days of inflation （通货膨胀）? Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique (古董) clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking soundIt has a face with twelve black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round peoples wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves.Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of day according to the beating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout the time. So it seems that the first clocks were human beings.However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time. They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour- glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past.Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by time, why not invest in an antique clock and perhaps make a future profit?56According to the passage, collecting antique clocks_.Acan hardly keep the value of your savings Bwill cost much of your savingsCmay increase your wealth Dneeds your bravery57By quoting （引用） the remark of a being from another planet, the author intends to_.Asuggest human beings are controlled by a clockBdescribe why clocks can rule the planet EarthCtell readers what clocks look likeDcompare clocks to human beings58Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time?ACounting the beating of ones own heart.BMaking use of candles, sand and water.CObserving shadows cast by the sun.DKeeping slaves busy day and night.59The underlined phrase stately homes in paragraph 4 means_. Astate-owned houses Bhouses in very good conditionCgrand houses open to the public Dhouses where statesmen meet regularly60The purpose of the passage is_. Ato introduce the culture of antique clocksBto offer some advice on collecting antique clocksCto compare different ways to make a future profitDto explain convenient and reliable ways of telling time第二节 信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息, 并按照要求匹配信息请在答题卡上将对应题号的相应选项字母涂黑 以下是电影信息：A.
