The nights come early and we spend a lot more time 36 and alone. Many people 37 winter: so cold, so dark and so boring. But I like winter because I have more time to read. For many students, reading means school; it means 38 . Reading is something your teacher assigns and youre 39 . Reading is something you have to do, not something you want to do. But for me and many other people, reading is the most 40 thing we can imagine. Getting lost in a good book can 41 a cold winter evening disappear. Dull grey skies are no match for the fantastic adventures of Frodo in The Lord of the Rings(指环王), or for romantic trouble-making of Jane Austens Emma(爱玛)，or for the youthful problems of Holden Caulfield in The Catcher in the Rye(麦田守望者). 42 of those books are studied in North American high schools. They are interesting and well written books that appeal to young people. 43 , even there, many high school students dont enjoy reading the books because they are 44 their school work, “Oh, my God! Two hundred pages! Ill never be able to read 45 much.” But sometimes a funny thing happens. They begin to read and they begin to follow the 46 . Suddenly, the world 47 the book becomes more exciting and more wonderful than the world they 48 . At the moment the thought 49 reading is work disappears and reading becomes 50 .Reading anything is great 51 reading good books is a terrific way to improve your English. Good writers write English very well and 52 you with good examples to follow. And good books will tell you more about English 53 : what people think, how they talk, how they interact with each other. But dont let me spoil it by telling you that reading is good for you. Just 54 it as a good way to 55 on a cold winter evening.36. A. indoorsB. insideC. outdoorsD. outside37. A. likeB. preferC. hateD. love38. A. jobB. worryC. tryD. work39. A. testedB. tested onC. examinedD. examined on40. A. enjoyableB. reasonableC. comfortableD. considerable41.

Their agent (经纪人) has asked the town officials about Wilbour City on the tour. The stadium in the town is large enough to hold the expected crowd. Ticket sales in the area would be good because several towns are around Wilbour City. However, many people in the town dont want a rock concert because they fear the damage the crowd might cause. To settle the problem about whether or not to invite the group to appear, the mayor took a poll (民意测验). The results are:Would buy ticketsWould not buy ticketsUndecided6180 (41.2%)5914 (39.4%)2920 (19.4%)Fear the damageNot fear the damageUndecided3043 (20.3%)8746 (58.3%)3225 (21.4%)Thought it would help the cityDidnt think it would help the cityUndecided9412 (62.7%)2085 (13.9%)3517 (23.4%)56.

A Rock ConcertB“Life is difficult. This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths, because once we truly understand and accept it, then life is no longer difficult.”Most people do not fully see this truth. Instead they are always blaming their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that their difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, their race, or even their nation. What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause in us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.Yet it is this whole process of meeting and solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the cutting edge that distinguishes between success and failure. Problems call forth our courage and our wisdom; indeed, they create our courage and our wisdom. It is only because of problems that we grow mentally and spiritually. When we desire to encourage the growth of the human spirit, we challenge and encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we purposely set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of confronting and resolving problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt, instruct.” It is for this reason that wise people learn not to dread (恐惧) but actually to welcome problems and actually to welcome the pain of problems.60. The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to _.A. persuade readersB. save space C. make readers laugh D. get readers attention61. The main idea of Paragraph 2 is _.A. most people feel life is easy B. the writer likes to complain about his problemsC. the writer feels life is easy D. most people complain about how hard their lives are62. The sentence “Those things that hurt, instruct” suggests that _.A. we do not learn from experienceB. we do not learn when we are in painC. pain teaches us important lessonsD. pain cannot be avoidedCSince the beginning of time, man has been interested in the moon. The Romans designed a special day to show admiration and respect to the moon. They called it Moonday, or Monday, as we know it today. Later, the great mind of Leonardo da Vinci studied the moon and designed a machine to carry a human to the moon. Leonardo said that one day a great machine bird would take a person to the moon and bring great honor to the home where it was born.Four and a half centuries later, Leonardos idea was realized. Apollo II took three Americans Collins, Aldrin and Armstrong to the moon. The mission (任务) did fill the whole world with great surprise, as Leonardo had said it would. Many essays, articles and books were written about mans first moon mission. But perhaps the most interesting story was one written before the event over 100 years before. In 1865, French author Jules Verne wrote a story about the first journey to the moon. His story was very similar to the 1969 Apollo II mission. Vernes spacecraft also contained three man two Americans and a Frenchman. The spacecraft was described as being almost the same size as Apollo II. The launch site in Vernes story was also in Florida. The spacecraft in Vernes story was named the Columbiad. The Apollo II command ship was called Columbia. His account of sending the spacecraft into the space could easily have been written about how Apollo II was sent into the space.Vernes story was the same as the actual event in several other respects. The speed of Vernes spacecraft was 36,000 feet per second; Apollos was 35,533 feet per second. Vernes spacecraft took 97 hours to reach the moon; Apollos time was 103 hours. Like Apollos spacemen, Vernes spacemen took pictures of the moons surface, relaxed on their seats, cooked with gas, and experienced weightlessness. They too came down in the Pacific and were picked up by an American warship.What were the reasons for Jules Vernes extreme accuracy in describing an event 100 years or more before it actually occurred? He based his writings on the laws of physics and astronomy. 19th-century science and the bright Vernes imagination gave people an unbelievably accurate preview of one of the greatest events of the 20th century.63. Leonardo da Vinci said that a great machine bird would _.A. bring great honor to the moonB. fly toward the sunC. explore the havensD. take people to the moon64. Vernes story is very similar to _.A. the first U. S. space mission B. the Apollo II missionC. Leonardo da Vincis story D. numerous other books on the same subject65. The passage suggests that Jules Verne _.A. developed the laws of physicsB. based his writings on the works of Leonardo da VinciC. was very lucky in what he had described about the futureD. knew a great deal about the laws of physics and astronomy66. The passage mainly describes _.A. the rapid progress of mankind B. Vernes accurate preview of the futureC. the 1969 Apollo II moon missionD. the 19th-century science and technologyDIn the 1960s, people asked about your astrological sign (星相). In the 1990s, they wanted to know your website. These days, having a web address is almost as important as a street address. Your website is an electronic meeting place for your family, friends and potentially, millions of people around the world. Best of all, you may not have to spend a cent. The Web is filled with all kinds of free services and all it takes is some time and creativity.Think of your home page as the starting point of your website. Like the table of contents of a book or a magazine, the home page is the front door. Your site can have one or more pages, depending on how you design it.While web pages vary greatly in their design and content, most use a traditional magazine layout (版面设计). At the top of the page is a banner (大标题) GRAPHIC. Next comes a greeting and a short description of the site. Pictures, texts, and links to other websites follow.Before you start building your site, do some planning. Think about whom the site is for and what you want to say. Next, gather up the material that you want to put on the site. Draw a rough layout on a sheet of paper.While there are no rules you have to follow, there are a few things to keep in mind: Start simply. If you are too ambitious (雄心勃勃的) at the beginning, you may never get the site off the ground. You can always add to your site.Less is better. Most people dont like to read a lot of text online. Break it into small pieces.Smaller is better. Most people connect to the Internet with a modem (调制解调器). Since it can take a long time to download large image files, keep the file sizes small.Have the rights. Dont put any material on your site unless you are sure you can do it legally (合法地). Learn the Nets Copyright Article for more about this.Now its time to roll up your sleeves and start building. Learning the Net Communities provides tools to help you build your site.67. The main purpose of the passage is to tell you _.A. what a website is likeB. how to build your own websiteC. how to meet people onlineD. what a website is made up of68. According to the writer, your website is a place _.A. where you can meet people all around the worldB. where you can buy what you wantC. where you can show yourself and communicate with other
