Since the wheels did not grip concrete(混凝土) well, riders could do very few tricks with them. Soon people lost interest in the sport.In 1973, though, a new wheel was invented in California. It was made of a plastic called urethane (氨基甲酸酯). A skateboard with these wheels moved very quickly and it also gripped the concrete well.During the next few years skateboards were further improved. The urethane was perfected, and because the boards were shaped better, riders liked them better. These skateboards gave new life to skateboarding.The streets were not safe for skateboarding, although it was easy to ride on the streets. As a result, skateboard parks sprang up. The first parks appeared in California and Florida. At first there were only outdoor parks that had concrete slopes with small curves (曲线). Then more exciting parks appeared which had steep downward slopes, banked curves, and vertical (垂直的) walls. Today, there are both indoor and outdoor parks.In most of these parks riders must wear helmets as well as knee and elbow pads. This gear can prevent a fall from causing serious injury.Whenever they ride, people should always use this safety equipment, and they should learn how to fall safely. Many accidents happen during the first week of riding so it is very important that riders be taught well.46. Why were the new skateboards more popular?A. They were safer than the older ones.B. The older models were expensive.C. They were stronger than the older ones.D. People could do more tricks with them.47. The underlined word “grip” in the first paragraph means “_”.A. move over a surface without slipping B. stick toC. replace D. break down48. Skateboard parks developed because _.A. parents decided it would be a good ideaB. too many accidents happened on the streetsC. many streets did not allow skateboardingD. most city parks did not allow skateboarding49. Which of the following statements about skateboard parks is TRUE?A. The first parks appeared in Scotland and Florida.B. The earlier parks had steep slopes.C. In the parks people dont have to wear helmets.D. At first there werent any indoor parks.50. The most important rule in a skateboard park might be “_”A. Do not speed! B. Leave the park by 7 p.m.C. Take care of your personal things! D. Wear safety equipment.B) 非选择题：阅读下列材料，然后按要求完成所给出的题目。(答案写在答题纸上)AHave you ever experienced any exciting sports like skydiving? Would you consider skydiving?

From the passage, we can conclude that Mike is an amateur (业余的) _.52. How did Mike actually feel when he was lying in hospital after the accident? (Please answer within 15 words.)53.

Before Mike had the accident, how many jumps had he done?BQuestions 5660: Answer the following questions briefly.56. How many game shows are there on Saturday night TV? What are the programme names?57. What does “tuxedo” refer to in the film “The Tuxedo”?58. On which channel can people enjoy a tennis match? At what time?59. At what time and on which channel can people watch a cartoon programme?60. Can you watch a soap opera on Saturday night? If so, on which channel and at what time?CIn the United States, it is important to be on time, for a date, a class, a meeting, etc. However, this is not true in all countries. An American professor discovered this difference while teaching a class from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at a Brazilian university. On the first day, when the professor arrived on time, no one was in the classroom. Many students came after 10 a.m. Several arrived after 10:30 a.m. Two students came after 11 a.m. Although all the students greeted the professor as they arrived, few apologised for their lateness. Were these students being rude? He decided to study the students behaviour.The professor talked to American and Brazilian students about lateness in both an informal and a formal situation such as lunch with a friend and in a university class. He gave them an example and asked them how they would react. If they had a lunch date with a friend, the average American student set lateness as 20 minutes after the agreed time. On the other hand, the average Brazilian student felt the friend was late after 33 minutes.In an American university, classes not only begin on time, but also end on time. In contrast, in Brazil, neither the teacher nor the students always arrive at the stated time. And only a few students left the class at noon; many remained past 12:30 to discuss the class and ask questions. While arriving late may not be very important in Brazil, neither is staying late.The explanation for these differences is complex. People from Brazilian and North American cultures have different feelings about lateness. (64) In Brazil, the students believe that a person who usually arrives late is probably more successful than a person who is always on time. (65) In fact, Brazilians expect a person with a high social position to arrive late, while in the United States lateness is usually considered to be disrespectful and unacceptable. As a result, if a Brazilian is late for an appointment with a North American, the American may misunderstand and become angry.As a result of his study, the professor learned that the Brazilian students were not being disrespectful to him. They were simply behaving in the normal way for a Brazilian student in Brazil. So, he was able to adapt and felt comfortable in the new culture.Questions 6163: Answer the following questions.61. What is the main idea of the passage? (Please answer within 12 words.)62. How did the professor conduct his study? (Please answer within 10 words.)63. Why did the professor study the Brazilian students behaviour? (Please answer within 10 words.)Questions 6465: Translate the underlined sentences in the passage into Chinese.III. 完形填空(Cloze) (共15小题；每小题1分，计15分)阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后选择方框内所给的单词或短语，并用其适当的形式填空。方框内有多余的词或短语，每个词或短语限用一次。(答案写在答题纸上)differ from, affect, something, instead of, time, use, spend, why, deal with,normal, if, discuss, go wrong, serious, obvious, homework, too much,exchange, no wonder, even ifThere can be no doubt at all that the Internet has made a huge difference to our lives.
