In spite of this, he became the most famous writer of his time. He made millions of dollars by writing. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain,his penname.Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mothers care, he managed to survive. As a boy, he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all his friends and neighbors. He didnt like to go to school, and he often ran away from home. He always went in the direction of the nearby Mississippi(密西西比河). He was nearly drowned nine times.After his fathers death, Mark Twain began to work for a printer, who only provided him with food and clothing. Then, he worked as a printer, a river-boat pilot and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner. During this period, he started to write short stories. Afterwards he became a full time writer.In 1870, Mark Twain got married. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876, and Huckleberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought him great fortune.Unfortunately, Mark Twain got into debts in bad investments(投资) and he had to write large numbers of stories to pay these debts. In 1904, his wife died, and then three of his children passed away.At the age of 70, his hair was completely white. He bought many white suits and neckties. He wore nothing but white from head to foot until his death on April 21, 1910.1In his childhood, Mark Twain, _.A learned a lot at schoolB he often went swimming with other boysC his mother often worried about his safetyD he often played games with other boys2Which of the following shows the right order about Mark Twain?a.

The distance between the Moon and Earth is very short indeed when compared with the distances between Earth and the other planets. Mars, the nearest planet to Earth is millions of miles away. Traveling to the planets will be mans next aim. Such travels will be more challenging than the trip to the moon and certainly more adventurous.Recently, two American spaceships, Vikings 1 and 2, landed on Mars trying to discover whether that planet has any life on it. So far the signs of life on Mars has neither confirmed(确认) nor ruled out. Russians have discovered that the surface of Venus(金星) is so hot that it is almost certain that there is no life there. Also the atmosphere of Venus is extremely dense(稠) and the pressure is nearly a hundred times greater than that of the Earths atmosphere.Scientists believe man may find planets which have the same conditions as those we have on Earth , but man should realize Earth will be his only home for a long time and begin to love and care for it.6.

To get a sense of how big，various and magical Toronto is，the best place to start is the CN Tower，the tallest freestanding(无支撑物的)building in the world. From this point, visitors can get a birds eye view of the citys amazing scenery and unique geography.In addition to being an important center of culture，trade and communication in Canada，Toronto is also a major multiethnic city. It has a population of over 4.5 million and its citizens come from countries around the world and from all manner of ethnic backgrounds. Every day，in most places of the city，a hundred different languages can be heard on the streets，from Hindi to Greek to French. This，perhaps，explains why former Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau once said that Canada is really more mosaic(马赛克，镶嵌图案) of cultures and languages than a melting pot.Street signs in Toronto are mostly in English. Weekly and daily newspapers are published in various languages，and the city hosts successful international film festival each September. It is also home to a popular baseball team，the Toronto Blue Jays. Toronto has something for everyone.10The author wrote this passage to_.Atell us how Toronto develops from the pastBintroduce some famous sights of TorontoCdraw more tourists to TorontoDintroduce something about Canada11What can we know from the passage?AToronto is in the center of Canada.BFrom the top of the CN Tower we can see the whole Toronto.CThe street signs in Toronto are all written in English.DToronto is a city with a history of half a century.12Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?AToronto hosts baseball games every year.BNewspapers in Canada arent published only in English.CWe can see people of every color in Toronto.DToronto hosts an international film festival every year.13The underlined sentence means different cultures and languages in Canada_.Ahave developed a lotBcan be easily seen by foreignersChave been well mixed togetherDstill keep their own characteristicsDToday about 70 countries use Daylight Saving Time (DST). Daylight Saving was first introduced during World War I in Australia. During the world wars, DST was used for the late summers beginning January 1917 and 1942, and the full summers beginning September 1942 and 1943.In 1967, Tasmania experienced a drought（干旱）. The State Government introduced one hour of daylight saving that summer as a way of saving power and water. Tasmanians liked the idea of daylight saving and the Tasmanian Government has declared daylight saving each summer since 1968. Persuaded by the Tasmanian Government, all states except two passed a law in 1971, for a test use of daylight saving. In 1972, New South Wales, South Australia and Victoria joined Tasmania for regular daylight saving, but Queensland did not do so until 1989.Tasmania, Queensland and South Australia have had irregular plans, often changing their dates due to politics or festivals（节日）. For example, in 1992, Tasmania extended（延长）daylight saving by an extra month while South Australia began extending daylight saving by two weeks for the Adelaide Festival. Special daylight saving plans were made during the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.The differences in daylight saving in Australia continue to cause serious problems in transport and many other social activities. It also reduces the number of hours in the working day that are common to all centers in the country. In particular, time differences along the east coast cause major differences, especially for the broadcasters of national radio and television. Daylight Saving14. What can we learn about DST in some Australian states?AIt doesnt have fixed dates. BIt is not used in festivals.CIts plan was changed in 2000. DIt lasts for two weeks.15. What do we know about the use of DST from the last paragraph?AThere exist some undesirable effects. BIt helps little to save energy.CIt brings about longer working days.
