I have been a senior student for about one year. As you know, I used to like English very much, but now I have much difficulty in learning English, especially in writing. I know English is not only very useful to many people but also one of the basic skills in todays society. But I think it is difficult for me to learn it well now.You know I have got low scores in English exams many times because of my poor writing ability.

The flood crest, several feet high, hit the village of Khemis Nagua at midmorning yesterday as farmers from the surrounding area joined town people in an open market place.The roaring water swept the villages living places, the market sheds (棚子), shoppers, cattle and farm tools for miles across the plain.The flood was over almost as soon as it started, the reports said, as the crest swept out to sea. Rescue workers quickly moved into the area from Sari, about 25 miles further south.43. It can be learnt from the text that _.

According to the text, which of the following maps may be correct?(KN=Khemis Nagua C=Casablanca S=Safi)书面表达 你堂兄建华在国外学习，你们经常用英文通信。他即将完成学业，不久前来信就是否回国工作征求你的意见。请根据下列提示回信： 1建议他回国； 2你的理由是：学有所用，就业容易；照顾父母。 注意；1词数100左右。 2行文应连贯，内容应完整。 3开头语与落款已为你写好。June 8thDear Jianhua,Im very glad to have received the letter you sent me two weeks ago. Ive been thinking about the question you asked me. In my opinion, you should come back after you finish your studies abroad. For one reason, what you are studying is badly needed nowadays in China. It will be quite easy for you to find a good job. In fact, I know a few big companies in our city are hoping to hire people like you. For another reason, I think it will be much more convenient for you to look after your parents as they are getting old. Therefore, I think its a good idea for you to return. So what are you waiting for?Best wishes, Minghua阅读理解AJohn H. Johnson was born in a black family in Arkansas city in 1918. His father died in an accident when John was six. He was reaching the high school age, but his hometown offered no high school for blacks.Fortunately he had a strong-willed (意志坚强的) caring mother. John remembered that his mother told him many times, “Son, you can be anything you want really to be if you just believe.”She told him not to depend on others, including his mother. “You have to earn success, ”she said. “All the people who work hard dont succeed, but the only people who do succeed are those who work hard.”These words came from a woman with less than a third grade education. She also knew that believing and hard work dont mean everything. So she worked hard as a cook for two years to save enough to take her son, who was then 15, to Chicago.Chicago in 1933 was not the promised land that black southerners were looking for. Johns mother and stepfather could not find work. But here John could go to school, and here he learned the power of wordsas an editor of the newspaper and yearbook at Du Sable High School His wish was to publish a magazine for blacks.While others discouraged him, Johns mother offered him more words to live by.“Nothing beats a failure but a try. ”She also let him pawn(典当)her furniture to get the $ 500 he needed to start the Negro magazine.It is natural that difficulties and failures followed John closely until he became very successful. He always keeps his mothers words in mind.“Son, failure is not in your vocabulary!”Now John H. Johnson is one of the 400 richest people in Americaworth $ 150 million.36.

Johnson became successful B. about the mental (心理的) support Johns mother gave him C. about the importance of a good education D. about the key to success for blacks BThe Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake at 5:46 a. rn. on January 17, 1995,Kobe (神户) and its surrounding areas suffered a killer earthquake. Only two other events in this century, the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and World War II caused more deaths in Japan than this earthquake. The epicenter was at the northern tip of Awaji Island. The quake registered (记录) 7.2 on the Richter scale (里氏震级). The greatest amount of damage was seen in the Japanese port city of Kobe, and at final count 6 348 people had lost their lives.The people of the area were quite unprepared for such a big earthquake. Experts had said that most modern buildings would be quite safe even from an earthquake as strong as the Great Kanto Earthquake. This was clearly not true. Television cameras showed the many buildings that had fallen down. The highway that ran through the city had fallen over on its side looking as if it had been pushed over by a giant (巨人).Thousands of people were homeless, However, some of the finest human qualities were seen in the time of crises (moment of great danger). People formed long lines for water and other supplies. They shared what they had with one another. People from young to old stopped to talk to each other and give a few encouraging words. The people living in the area knew that their old life had been destroyed. They believe they can rebuild their life, and a better one,40. Only two other events caused more deaths in Japan. They are _. A. the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake and the Second World War B. the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and World War II C. the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923 and the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake of 1995 D. the First World War and the Second World War41. Which of the following is true? A. The Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake was the greatest in the world history. B. The earthquake broke out in summer. C. The center of the earthquake was in the northern end of the port city. D. More than six thousand people lost their lives in the earthquake.42. The passage seems to suggest that _. A. a giant was able to start an earthquake B. modem buildings were strong enough to be safe from any earthquake C. less people would have died if they had been prepared for it D. experts always tell liesCThirteen vehicles lined up last March to race across the Mojave Desert, seeking a million in prize money. To win, they had to finish the 142-mile race in less than 10 hours. Teams and watchers knew there might be no winner at all, because these vehicles were missing a key partdrivers.DARPA, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, organized the race as part of a push to develop robotic vehicles for future battlefields. But the Grand Challenge, as it was called, just proved how difficult it is to get a car to speed across an unfamiliar desert without human guidance. One had its brake lock up in the starting area, Another began by throwing itself onto a wall. Another got tied up by bushes near the road after 1.9 miles.One turned upside down. One took off in entirely the wrong direction and had to be disabled by remote (远距离的) consol. One went a little more than a mile and rushed into a fence; another managed to go for six miles but stuck on a rock. The “winner,”if there was any, reached 7.8 miles before it ran into a long, narrow hole, and the front wheels caught on fire.“You get a lot of respect for natural abilities of the living things,” says Reinhold Behringer, who helped design two of the ear-size vehicles for a company called Sci-Autonics, “Even ants (蚂蚁) can do all these tasks effortlessly. Its very hard for us to put these abilities into our machines.”The robotic vehicles, though with necessary modern equipment such as advanced computers and GPS guidance, had trouble figuring out fast enough the blocks ahead that a two-year-old human recognizes immediately. Sure, that very young child, who has just only learned to walk, may not think to wipe apple juice off her face, but she already knows that when theres a cookie in the kitchen she has to climb up the table, and that when she gets to the cookie it will taste good. She is more advanced, even months old, than any machine humans have designed.46. Watchers doubted if any of the vehicles could finish the race because _. A. they did not have any human guidance B. the road was not familiar to the drivers C. the distance was too long for the vehicles D. the prize money was unattractive to the drivers47. DARPA organized the race in order to _. A. raise money for producing more robotic vehicles B. push the development of vehicle industry C. train more people to drive in the desert D. improve the vehicles for future wars48. From the passage we know “robotic vehicles” are a kind of machines that _. A. can do effortlessly whatever tasks living things can B. can take part in a race across 142 miles with a time limit C. can show off their abil
