Nothing could be done but 43 in the cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke and then the 44 of the rescue team.It is almost 45 that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 46: “First of all I checked my 47 conditions and found myself not in danger. As there was no 48 to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 49. In this way I dozed（打盹）off.”His story put an end to my regret for the 50 of an exploration that happened last year.

Finally, they fell dead in fear and exhaustion. According to the 54 team that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the 55 of the cave.

Helen Frys new book Quick Cooking has been specially written for busy people. It has over 1,000 recipes, from the famous Spanish gazpacho to Swedish smorgasbord. The book is well written and the photographs and drawings are clear. (They are like those in the excellent little Quick Dressmaking and Quick Gardening.) The book has a strong plastic cover. It is easy to find your way around it too. And busy people, notice this! Mrs. Fry tells you how much time you need in order to get each dish ready.Quick Cooking has 4 parts, one for each season. This helps you to use fresh fruit and vegetables when they are cheaperand, of course, better. There are a lot of exciting ideas from foreign countries, and most of the recipes are easy to follow. You take something simple like a chicken or some cheese, and make and unusual dish out of it. For example, there are no fewer than 40 recipes for eggs! Mrs. Fry does not plan complete meals for the “quick book”. The beginners will have to find out a lot of things for himselfor herself. But this ought not to be difficult with such a good book. I wanted to try many of the recipes as soon as I read them. For people with little spare time Helen Frys Quick Cooking is excellent value. 61.Helen Frys book is called Quick Cooking because _.A. you can cook all the dishes in it quickly B. there is over 1,000 recipes in itC. it is written for people who dont have much time D. it tells you how to cook all kinds of food quickly62.Busy people should notice that _.A .all the recipes in the book are easy to follow B. there are clear photographs and drawings in the bookC. the book has a strong cover D. they are told how long each dish takes to cook63.This passage is most probably _.A. a book review B. a notice C. a letter to an editor D. an introduction on cooking64.We can infer from the passage that _.A. Helen Fry is good at writing books quicklyB. complete meals are planned only for beginners C. there are quite a few “quick books” for busy peopleD. beginners are advised to start making meals out of the cheapest materialsBSigns in Chinese will be set up in public areas such as airports, to benefit Chinese travelers, the Italian Government announced in late February. Now many European countries are expected to follow this example.Despite the different languages, travel across Europe has never been so simple. Just five years ago, if you wanted to visit Germany in the north and Spain in the south in one trip, you had to wait for weeks to apply for different visas from the two countries. You also needed a calculator because both countries had different money.Today, with a Schengen Visa issued by any member country, you can travel across 15 European countries without stopping. Since 2002, within most of the EU, there is now just one type of money called the Euro. The Euro was designed to be the only money in the EU, and already makes it easier to shop around. If you drive, your driving license and car insurance policy are valid（有效的）in the other European countries. And you can use your mobile phone everywhere.All the countries in the continent are melting into a united Europe under the EU. For Europeans and visitors, the result is that is more convenient to travel back and forth between the different countries. 65.What is the purpose of the passage?A. To encourage us to travel across Europe.B. To suggest that the whole world is melting into one like the EU.C. To praise the tourism policy of the EU. D. To introduce tourism conditions in the EU.66.By saying the underlined sentence “Now many European countries are expected to follow this example”, the writer means that _.A. more signs will be set up in Chinese in European countriesB. more and more Europeans have a desire to know more about China C. more and more Chinese people will go to travel across Europe D. Chinese is now an important language in Europe67.Compared to five years ago, traveling in Europe has become easier because _.A. you neednt drive a car B. you can use a calculator to exchange moneyC. applying for different visas is much simplerD. one visa is good enough for traveling in a number of countries68.It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. an increasing number of Chinese tend to travel to EuropeB. Chinese has become an important language in EuropeC. the Euro is the only money used in the EU nowD. it is always necessary to unite many countries into oneCIt is naturally impossible for a well educated, intellectual（懂道理的）,or brave man to make money-the chief of his thoughts; it is naturally impossible for him to make his dinnerthe necessary object of him. All healthyminded people like their dinner, but their dinner is not the main object of their lives. So all healthyminded people like making moneybut the main object of their lives is not money; it is something more important than money.A good soldier for instance, mainly wished to do his fighting well. He is glad for his payvery properly so, and justly complains when you keep him ten months without it; still his main aim of his life is to win battles, not to be paid for winning them.As for doctors, they like fees, no doubt ought to like them; yet if they are brave and well educated, the entire object（目标） of their lives is not fees. They, on the whole, wishes to cure me sick, andthey are good doctors, and the choices is fairly put to themwould rather cure their patients and lose their fees than kill him and get it. And so with all other brave and rightly trained mentheir work is first, their fees second, very important always, but still second. 226w69.The text is mainly about _.A. money is not everything but no money is nothingB. work is first but money is also importantC. work is the chief opinion of the good peoples livesD. People like less work but more money70.According to the text, it is _ that a good solider will run away when a drowning man needs help but there is no money.A .impossible B. possible C. clever D. foolish 71.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph means _.A. their patient B .their work C. the object of lives D. their money72.If you are middle school teacher described in the text, what will you do if you are not paid for six months?A. To quarrel with the headmaster B. To go on teaching in this schoolC. To give up the teaching in this school and find a teaching job in another schoolD. To go on teaching after getting paidDHistory is a societys memory and forms part of peoples identity（身份）. But Taiwans government has proposed a change to their history. In the move their textbooks will separate the islands history from the rest of China.By disconnecting the islands history from the mainland, the government hopes to create a stronger Taiwan identity.Under new guidelines（方针）to be carried out in 2006, Taiwan has ordered high schools to change textbooks to create one book of Taiwans history. At the moment their books cover the complete Chinese history. But following the new move Chinese history will be taught as part of international history. No longer to be included as part of Taiwans history is the founding of the Republic of China (ROC) in 1911 by Sun Yat-sen. This event will be in the new international history book.“It is a political attempt by Taiwans leader Chen Shuibian to make their education support Taiwans independence,” said Li Weiyi, spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council.This move has also received great opposition in Taiwans schools. “The new outline is too political and facts have been changed,” said Yu Lin, the headmaster of Taipei Middle School. “It will confuse students understanding of history.”“Who on earth should I think is the founding father of the ROC?” asked a student in Taipei. “Many famous people in history like Confucius（孔子）or Sun Yat-sen, who was considered father of the ROC for more than half a century, should now be thought of as foreigners based upon this ridiculous logic,” he said.Many people have shown opposition to the move. “History cannot be changed. Mixing politics with our history means forgetting our ancestors,” said Lien Chan, chairman of Kuomintang Party. “It will not do any good for the Taiwanese and only worsen cross-Straits relations.” 313w73.What is mainly described in the passage?
