A

As a boy, Sanders was much influenced by books about the sea, but by the age of fifteen he had decided to become a doctor rather than a sailor. His father was a doctor. So he was often with the doctors and got along very well with them. When he was fourteen, he was already hanging around the hospital where he was supposed to be helping to clean the medicine bottles, but was actually trying to listen to the doctors’ conversations with patients in the next

room.

During the war Sanders served in the a rmy as a surgeon(外科医生). “That was the happiest time of my life. I was dealing with real sufferers and on the whole making a success of my job.” In Rhodes he taught the country people simple facts about medicine. He saw himself as a life-saver. He had proved his skill to himself and had a firm belief that he could serve those who lived simply, and were dependent upon him. Thus, while in a position to tell them what to do he could feel he was serving them.

After the war, he married and set up a practice deep in the countryside, working under an old doctor who hated the sight of blood. This gave the younger man plenty of opportunities to go on working as a life-saver.

21. When he was a small boy, Sander was influenced by books about ______.

A. the hospital. B. the war. C. the sea.

D. the countryside.

22. At the age of 14, Sanders ______. A. worked as a doctor in the hospital. B. got along well with the patients.

C. was interested in talking with doctors and patients. D. helped to clean the medicine bottles in the hospital. 23. When the war was over, he ______. A. had the happiest time of his life.

B. started to hate the sight of blood while working. C. served the countrymen under an old doctor.

D. had few chances to be a “life-saver” because he was younger.

B

The London Underground (The Tube）

The main source of public transport in London revolves around the Underground (or the Tube as it is known to Londoners). This network of 12 lines can get you to most places in the center of the city quickly.

It’s most necessary to get an Oyster Card or a Travelcard. Single tickets are priced starting at the intentionally absurd (荒谬的) price of ￡ 4.80 (Zone 1-3), if you pay cash. Using an Oyster card, a single fare is ￡ 2.30 if yo u are traveling within the central Zone

1.

On hot days it is also advisable to take a bottle of water with you as Underground trains are not air-conditioned.

Last trains leave central London at around 00:30 weekdays, 23:30 Sundays. First trains leave the suburbs at around 5:00.

The Bus System

Outside the center of London, Tube stations are farther apart, so buses help fill the gaps. Also, the bus offers a cheaper alternative, even if it is a slower journey.

Cash fares for London buses have been abolished —you cannot pay cash. A bus fare costs ￡ 1.50 if using only buses, the fare is capped at ￡ 4.40 per day for Oyster or contactless users.

River Services

There are a number of different routes along the River Thames. The faster commuter services operate all day from Greenwich Pier to Embankment and from Putney and Chelsea harbour to Blackfriars during Peak Hours only. These routes will pass a number of places of interest including the Houses of Parliament and London Bridge. A return fare from Putney to

Blackfriars will cost about 12 pounds.

National Rail

Once you leave Central London or if you are traveling South of the River Thames, the best public transport option will often be National Rail. There are numerous connections to the Rail System from the Tube. Travelcards can be used for travel on the National Rail (but not the Heathrow Express). Oyster cards can be used up to Zone 6 except certain services including Heathrow Express, Heathrow Connect and HSI.

24. When taking the London Underground, ______. A. you should buy tickets with cash

B. you can save more money with a single ticket C. you can go to any place in London quickly

D. you are advised to take a bottle of water along on hot days 25. If you use river services along the River Thames, you will pass ______.

A. London Bridge B. Stratford C. Canary Wharf D. Tower Hill

26. To travel South of the River Thames, it is recommended that you use ______.

A. The London Underground B. The Bus System C. The DLR and the Tram D. National Rail C

A man steps on what seems like solid ground but discovers with horror that the ground is giving way beneath his feet. The man struggles desperately, but he is trapped. He cannot escape.

Slowly he sinks deeper and deeper until at last he is gone, buried in the treacherous earth. The solid ground was solid only in appearance. It was actually quicksand, which is a deep mass of fine sand mixed with water.

How is quicksand formed? Water pushes up from below the surface and is held by the sand. The grains of sand are forced apart by the water. They cannot hold any weight. The subsurface water may have come from a spring, a river or a stream. Sometimes pools of water near beaches become filled with sand. When the soil under these pools does not allow for good drainage （排水）, the sand can become stretches of quicksand.

Is it true that a man who steps into quicksand is doomed to(注定)die? No, for men have fought their way from quicksand to firm land again. It is panic(恐慌)that creates the condition that can result in death, for the more a person struggles, the worse matters become. Quick movements will make the sand give way temporarily(临时地), but then it rushes and settles solidly around the body. A man trapped in quicksand should either lie back, or not move at all, except to stretch out his arms. When the weight of the sand his body has displaced equals his weight, he will stop sinking. With feet held still, and with slow movements of the arms, as in the backstroke in swimming men can manage to roll to safety and reach firm ground.

27. What is quicksand?

A. A piece of solid ground mixed with water. B. A pool near the beach filled with water. C. A deep mass of fine sand mixed with water. D. A piece of sinking land in the water.

28. The underlined part “giving way” in the first paragraph probably mea ns ______.

A. shaking and moving B. allowing others to be first C. rising to the top

D. breaking or breaking into pieces

29. A person stops sinking when the weight of his body is _____ that of the sand his body

has displaced. A. greater than B. the same as C. half of D. close to

30. Men can manage to reach firm ground by ______. A. holding feet still and moving arms slowly B. lying back calmly and moving arms frequently C. stretching out arms and swimming quickly D. swimming quickly and moving arms slowly 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Have you ever seen an animal being mistreated (虐待)? Seeing a pet or wild animal get hurt might make you sad, angry, or afraid. 31 In fact, the good news is that everyone — including you — can be a helping hand for animals.

Keep your eyes and ears open.

32 Watch for changes in the way they look or act. Look out for animals who:

﹡ have cuts or other bruises（伤痕）

﹡ avoid or attack people when people come close ﹡ are too thin ﹡ are missing fur

﹡ are almost always left outside

These signs don’t necessarily mean a pet has been hurt on purpose, but they shouldn’t be ignored. If you see any of these signs, set them down. 33 What did you see or hear? Where? When? Were other people around?

34

Never move an injured animal! Ask a parent, teacher, or other adult you trust for help. Find out whether the injured animal in your town can be saved by animal shelters or police. Keep their phone numbers at hand. If the person mistreating animals is a friend or family

member, tell an adult you trust. Speak up.

Let other kids know what to do if they see an animal being hurt. Using the information above, make posters to hang or flyers (传单) to hand out at school. Include the phone numbers

of the police department or animal shelters who can save the injured animals. 35 They need us to speak up for them!

A. Report it.

B. Send it to animal shelters.

C. Animals are friends of human beings. D. Get to know pets in your neighborhood. E. You might think there’s nothing you can do. F. Remember, animals can’t speak for themselves.

G. Or if you see someone hurting an animal, write down the details.

A MASTER OF NONVERBAL HUMOUR

Not that Charlie’s own life was easy! He was born in a poor family in 18. His parents

were both poor music hall 76 . You may find it astonishing that Charlie was taught to

sing as soon as he could speak and dance as soon as he could walk. Such training was common

in acting families at this time, especially when the family income was often uncertain. Unfortunately his father died, leaving the family even 77 off, so Charlie spent his childhood looking after his sick mother and his brother. By his teens, Charlie had, through

his humour, become one of the most popular child actors in England. He could 78 and

act the fool doing ordinary everyday tasks. No one was ever bored watching him —his subtle acting made everything entertaining.

COMMUNICATION: NO PROBLEM?

The first person to arrive was Tony Garcia from Colombia, 79 followed by Julia Smith from Britain. After I met them and then introduced them to each other. I was very surprised. Tony approached Julia, 80 her shoulder and kissed her on the cheek! She stepped back appearing surprised and put up her hands, as if in defence. I guessed that there was probably a major misunderstanding. Then Akira Nagata from Japan came in smiling, together with George Cook from Canada. As they were introduced, George reached his hand 81 to the Japanese student. Just at that moment, however, Akira bowed so his nose touched George’s moving hand. They both apologized — another cultural mistake!

THEME PARKS — FUN AND MORE THAN FUN

The theme park you are probably most familiar with is Disneyland. It l be found in several parts of the world. It will bring you 82 a magical world and makes your dreams come true, whether you are travelling through space, visiting a pirate ship or

meeting your favorite fairy tales or Disney cartoon character. As you wander around the fantasy 83 park, you may see Snow White or Mickey Mouse in a parade or on the street. Of course Disneyland also has many exciting rides, from giant swinging ships to terrifying free-fall drops. 84 all these attractions, no 85 tourism is increasing wherever there is a Disneyland. If you want to have fun, come to Disneyland.

Recently, our school carried out a survey about whether students will do some part-time work during the s ummer holiday.

% of the students said no. First, their parents won’t allow them to do so. Second, they are so busy wi th their study during the holiday that they can’t afford the time to do it. Third, they are not sure what job they can do.

11% of the students planned to work during the winter holiday. They think working is a good chance to put what they hav e learned into practice. Through working, they can gain lots of social experience. In addition, by doing a part-time job to earn some money, they can reduce their parents` burden.

Kids have lots of energy, so sitting in a chair in a classroom all day is really unnatural. One school just made it easier for kids to get healthier while they learn. Ashanti Branch, the assistant principal at Monteria Middle School in Oakland, California, gave a radio interview describing how hard it is for boys in school to sit still. (18) (19) The school also happened to be in need of furniture; they didn’t have enough chairs or desks for all their students. For some reason, that interview received a lot of attention. A company called Ergotron, which manu factures “standing desks” that require users to stand up while using them, generously donated some to the school. This match-up couldn’t have been better. At first, the kids didn’t use the standing desks because they preferred to sit. It was

something they had always done in a certain way. The

teachers offered them the choice to sit or stand, and now, the kids have adjusted to the new system. Perhaps this will make the kids become more active in sports and at home. (20)
