They are the best known public transport systems (公共交通运输系统) in the world and each is a key part of one of the greatest cities of the world. The two systems have many things in common(相同), including their ages and fame（名声），but there are also important differences.The following table shows some of the similarities (类似）and differences.( ) 45.

A large tree grew there. Both the patch and the tree gave the place a wonderful look, and they were the pride of the gardener. But no one know that the vegetables and the tree couldnt stand (忍受) each other. The vegetables hated the trees shadow (阴影) , because it left them only just enough light to live. The tree, on the other hand, hated the vegetables because they drank nearly all the water, leaving him just enough to live.The situation became so serious that the vegetables decided to use up all the water in the ground so that the tree would die. The tree answered back by not protecting the vegetables from the hot sun, so they began to dry up. Soon the vegetables were really weak, and the tree was drying up.The gardener wondered why and stopped watering them. When he did that, both the tree and the vegetables realized that it was better to help each other. They learned how to live in harmony with those around them. So they decided to work together, using both the shade and the water to grow well. After seeing how well they were doing, the gardener gave the best care to the vegetable patch, watering and fertilizing (施肥) it better than any other patch for miles around.( ) 48. From the passage we know _. A. The vegetables were sorry to see the tree drying up. B. The gardener was very angry with the vegetables and the tree.C. The gardener didnt know what was happening in the patch at first.D. The tree didnt know how important the sun was to vegetables.( ) 49. The underlined phrase“in harmony” means “_” in the Chinese. A. 长久地 B. 小心地 C. 有效地 D. 和谐地( ) 50. The passage is mainly about _. A. why the sunlight and water were very importantB. how the gardener took care of his vegetable patchC. why the gardener was proud of his vegetable patchD. what happened between the vegetables and the treeC At present, more and more people are crazy about travelling. Why do people travel? To see more of the world, many people would say. But travelling abroad now means much more than that for the growing number of Chinese tourists（游客）. Of course it offers us good opportunities（机会）to meet people from other countries, learn about their culture and customs. According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), more than 1 billion people travelled to another country in 2012. In 2012, Chinese people travelled abroad 30 per cent more than in 2011. The prosperity(繁荣) of the tourism industry can also bring both our country and foreign countries great economic benefits (经济利益). Chinese people usually join large tourist groups and visit several countries in one trip. Chinese people dont just travel for sightseeing. The China International Travel Service Company said that all their tour trips sold out a month before Christmas Day. Stores offered discounts (打折) during that time, so shopping in Europe and the United States is popular among Chinese travellers. In December, China is going through a very cold winter. So many people like to go to some countries in Southeast Asia because theweather there is quite pleasant. The improvement of living standards（标准） means more Chinese can travelabroad. But many of them dont have a sense of public manners. A reportby Living Social website in March 2012 even listed Chinese as theworlds second worst tourists. If you want to change that bad name, remember to avoid thefollowing: littering, spitting, snatching（抢夺） bus seats, line-jumping, taking offshoes in public, talking loudly and smoking in non-smoking areas.Besides, we should learn some necessary manners of foreign countries.( ) 51. Chinese people travel abroad not to _. A. go shopping B. see more of the world C. go sightseeing D. make money( ) 52. According to the United Nations, World Tourism Organization, _. A. 30% of the people who travelled abroad are Chinese B. the number of people who travelled abroad rose by 30% C. more than 1 billion people travelled abroad in 2012 D. more than 1 billion Chinese people travelled abroad in 2012( ) 53. Which of the following is NOT true about Chinese people? A. Chinese people like joining large tourist groups. B. Many Chinese like to go to Southeast Asia in winter for sightseeing. C. More and more Chinese people can travel abroad now. D. A report even listed Chinese as the second worst tourists in the world in 2012.( ) 54. Whats the best title of the passage? A. Travelling. B. Travelling abroad.C. Chinese tourists. D. Chinese people like travelling.四、阅读表达（共3小题，满分6分）阅读下面的短文并用英语回答问题，并将答案写在答题卡上标有题号的横线上。Honesty(诚实)of American studentsWhen I first arrived in America,I was surprised by the honesty of my classmates.Over my first month at school,I didnt see or hear anyone cheating.I found two reasons for this.First,if any student cheats,he or she will get punished.My school has a rule called the Honor Code（荣誉准则）.It asks students not to steal,lie or cheat.If someone goes against the code,he or she will have to leave the school.During my first year in the school,seven students left the school because of cheating.Second,American students dont care about scores as much as Chinese students do.They know that colleges will look at their all-round abilities instead of only scores.So they have fewer reasons to cheat. 55.
