But many years ago, it wasn’t easy at all. Before 1750, people never tried skating on wheels. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin’s work was making instruments. In his free time he liked to play the violin. Merlin was a man with many ideas and many dreams. People called him a dreamer.  One day Merlin received an invitation to go to an important party. He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think. He wanted to find a way to make a wonderful entrance at the party. Merlin had an idea. He thought that he would attract a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.  Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided to put two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skate shoes. Merlin was very proud of them. He dreamed of arriving at the party and skating into the room while playing the violin. He was sure that everyone would be very surprised.  On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room, playing his violin. Everyone was really surprised to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skating. He rolled on, playing the violin. Then, with all eyes on him, Merlin hit into a huge mirror on the wall. The mirror broke into many pieces with a very loud noise.  Nobody forgot Merlin’s wonderful entrance after that.56.

The ones who look up every new word do not read fast. Therefore they do not have time to read much. Those who use small two-language dictionaries have the worst problems. Their dictionaries often give only one or two words as translations of English. But one English word often has many translations in a foreign language and one foreign word has many translations in English.    The most successful students are those who use large college edition dictionaries with about 100,000 words but do not use them too often. When they are reading, these students first try to get the general idea and understand new words from the context. Then they reread and use the dictionary to look up only key words that they still do not understand. They use dictionaries more for writing. If they are not sure how to spell a word, or divide it into syllables (音节), they always use a dictionary. Also, if they think a noun might have an unusual plural form, they check these in a dictionary. 66. The writer thinks that        .   A. choose a good dictionary, and you’ll be successful in learning English   B. dictionaries are not necessary to the students who learn English   C. it is very important for students to use good dictionaries properly   D. using dictionaries very often can’t help to improve writing67. According to the passage, which of the following is wrong?   A. Dictionaries have little effect on learning to speak English.   B. Whatever new words you meet while reading, never use dictionaries.   C. Small two-language dictionaries have serious defects (缺陷).   D. Reading something for the first time, you’d better not use dictionaries.68. When in the reading does the writer advise students to use a good dictionary?   A. At the beginning of the reading   B. At the end of the reading   C. During the first reading   D. After the first reading69. This passage mainly tells us        .   A. students shouldn’t use small two-language dictionaries   B. what were the defects of small two-language dictionaries   C. why students should use large college edition dictionaries   D. what dictionary students should choose and how to use it70. Which is not mentioned in this passage?   A. How to make good use of a dictionary.   B. When to use a dictionary.   C. How to improve spoken English.    D. How to practise reading fast.                         DThere was once an 11-year-old boy who went fishing every time he went to an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake.On the day before the bass opened, he and his farther were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms. Then he tied a small silver lure put it into the lake. Suddenly the boy felt that something very big was pulling on the lure. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. Finally he lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.The boy and his father looked at the big fish. The father struck a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 pm—two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish,and then at the boy. ”You’ll have to pit it back, son,” he said.“Dad!’ cried the boy.” There will be other fish,” said his father.’ Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. He looked around. No other fishermen or boats could be seen in the noonlight. He looked at his father again.Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed. He knew the huge bass into the black water.The big fish disappeared. The boy thought that he would never see such a big fish again.That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect in New York city. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.And he was right. He has never caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago again. But he does see the same fish---again and again—ever time he has an ethical decision to make. His father had taught him that ethics are simply a matter of right or wrong, but it is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.71. Why did the father strike a match?A. To check the time.B. To light his cigarette.C. To have a closer look at the fish.D. To find whether there was somebody nearby.72. What happened when they found it was two hours before the season opened?A. The boy threw the bass back into the water willingly.B. The father asked the boy to put the fish back into the lake.C. The boy and his father discussed what to do with the fish.D. They worried other fishermen might discover what they had done.73. From the text we know that the father ---------------.A. disliked the huge fish.B. didn’t understand his son.C. struck to rules whenever he did something.D. always disagreed with his son.74. Why did the architect go fishing with his children at the same place?A .It was a good place for fishing.B .It brought the past to his mind.C .They could catch a big fish there.D. He wanted to give them a moral lesson.75. What can we learn from the story?A .An ethical decision is not difficult to make.B .It is hard to tell right from wrong sometimes.C. It is easy to say something , but difficult to do it.D. Fishing helps you to make right ethical decision. 第II卷（共45分）第一节 阅读表达（共15分，每题5分）阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题（请注意问题后的字数要求）。If you are worried about things and are under a lot of stress at work or school, then you are probably not sleeping well. Worry can keep you awake, tossing and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fall asleep. When you wake up, you don’t feel refreshed, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article entitled Stress and Sleep, indicates that__________   Dr. Winkle says, “The more we worry, the less we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with stress. If we can find a way to get a good night’s sleep,” he adds, “we can often find the energy to deal with what’s worrying us.”So, what is a good night’s sleep? Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy varies a lot. Seven hours in about the average amount, though strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more refreshed.Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired. A bedtime drink can also help, but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine and will keep you awake. “When you put the light out,” Dr. Winkle says, “concentrate on relaxing your muscles, working slowly up from your feet, and you’ll be asleep before you know it.”76．What is the best title of the passage?

To enjoy popularity, we are supposed to regard the class as our big family and even offer to sacrifice our personal interests whenever necessary. While taking an active part in all our class activities, we should work responsibly to build up a good reputation as a team. To be students with high popularity, we are to show respect, concern and sympathy for others. As a result, we never hesitate to lend a hand to those in need. To be a popular student, we ought to be strict with ourselves in everything we do at school and make every effort to achieve all-round development, being good not only at our lessons but also at sports, music, painting, social services and so on. In time of success we remain modest, while in time of difficulty we keep strong-minded.  All in all, popularity among classmates and teachers comes naturally to those who keep improving their personal qualities.
