They took cameras to see what 36 would do if they saw someone 37 on the platform or trains. The incidents looked 38 but they were all done with the help of actors. However, 39 people tried to help, and most passengers 40 not to notice. In one of the incidents, a foreigner was attacked by three men. The attack was on a 41 which was quite full, and 42 the man tried to get the other passengers to help, they all 43 . This is not only a French problem. A British newspaper reported in 1991 that a(n) 44 of Social Psychology in New York had sent his students out to 45 their own cars. The students didn’t try to 46 what they were doing. About 80 people 47 250 car thefts, and only twelve of them tried to 48 the student robbers. In a typical(典型的) 49 , one man stopped, looked, and then put his hands over his 50 and shouted “I didn’t see that!” About forty people 51 to help the thieves, and two people 52 sat down next to the car and waited to buy a camera and television set a 53 was taking from the back seat of his won car.

But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.‎ ‎. So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.‎ Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional (情感的) health, and crying seems to show that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.‎ Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendly and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we' re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.‎ Just as crying can be healthy, not crying — holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering — can be bad for physical (身体的) health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don't fight it. It's a natural and healthy emotional response (反应).‎ ‎56. Why didn't the author cry when her grandmother died?‎ A. Because her father did not ask her to feel too sad.‎ B. Because she did not love her grandmother.‎ C. Because she was too shy to cry at that time.‎ D. Tie author doesn’t give the explanation.‎ ‎57. It can be inferred from the text that ______.‎ A. there are two ways to keep healthy B. crying does more good to health than laughing C. crying and laughing play the same roles D. emotional health has a close relationship to physical health ‎58. According to the author, which of the following statements is true?‎ A. Crying is the best way to get help from others.‎ B. Fighting back tears may cause some health problems.‎ C. We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.‎ D. We must cry if we want to reduce pressure.‎ ‎(B)‎ It is only during the last few years that man has generally realized that in the world of nature a balance exists between all forms of life. No living thing can exist by itself. It is part of a system in which all forms of life are joined together. If we change one part of the nature order, this will almost certainly bring about changes in some other part.‎ The cutting of forests reduced the supply of oxygen. The killing of weeds and insects by chemicals led to the wide-spread poisoning of animals and birds. The throwing of waste products into the ocean hurt life in the sea, while waste gases ‎ changed the chemical balance of the atmosphere and shut out some of the sun’s necessary life-giving rays.‎ And so we could go on adding more examples until in despair(绝望) we might feel like giving up the struggle to control these harmful human activities. Man is very clever at changing the world around him to satisfy his immediate needs, but he is not so clever at looking far ahead, or at thinking about what the future results of his action might be. Man may well destroy himself because of his silly action.‎ ‎59. The first paragraph tells us that _____.‎ A. all living things in nature depend on each other B. everything in nature can’t exist without the help of man C. man has known the importance of the balance of nature for a long time D. no living thing can live naturally ‎60. In the second paragraph the examples given are used to prove that _____.‎ A. all forms of life belong to a system in which all the parts can be changed for one another B. it is only during the last few years that man has generally known the balance of nature C. there are some living things which can exist by themselves without change D. we can’t change one form of life without destroying the balance of nature ‎61. The last paragraph suggests that in order to get his immediate benefits(利益) _____.‎ A. man is always anxious to control his activities within limits B. man is always too eager in planning for distant future C. man often fails to think about their future results of his action D. man often feels that he will have to give up in despair ‎62 Which of the following is true according to the passage?‎ A. Cutting down woods does little harm to human beings.‎ B. Man has to pay much more attention to the future results of his present action.‎ C. Oxygen comes from forests.‎ D. The passage tells us to try our best to get as much as possible immediately.‎ ‎(C)‎ If Europeans thought a drought（干旱）was something that happened only in Africa, they know better now. After four years of below-normal rainfall (in some cases only 10 percent of the average), large areas of France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Britain and Ireland are dry and barren. Water is so low in the canals of northern France that waterway traffic is forbidden except on weekends. Oyster（牡蛎）growers in Brittany report a 30 percent drop in production because of the loss of fresh water in local rivers necessary for oyster breeding. In southeastern England, the rolling green hills of Kent have turned so brown that officials have been weighing plans to pipe in water from Wales. In Portugal, farmers in the southern Alentejo region have held prayer meetings for rain—so far, fruitless.‎ Governments in drought-hit countries are taking several measures. Authorities in hard-hit areas of France have banned washing cars and watering lawns. In Britain, water will soon be metered, like gas and electricity. “The English have always taken ‎ water for granted,” says Graham Warren, a spokesman of Britain’s National Rivers Authority. “Now they’re putting a price on it.” Even a sudden end to the drought would not end the misery in some areas. It will take several years of unusually heavy winter rain, the experts say, just to bring existing water reserves up to their normal levels.‎ ‎63. What does the author mean by saying “they know better now?”‎ ‎ A. They know more about the causes of the drought.‎ ‎ B. They have a better understanding of the drought in Africa.‎ ‎ C. They have realized that only the drought in Europe is the most serious one.‎ ‎ D. They have realized that droughts hit only Europe.‎ ‎64. The drought in Europe has brought about all the following problems EXCEPT ‎ ‎ ________.‎ ‎ A. below-normal rainfall ‎ B. difficult navigation ‎ C. a sharp drop in oyster harvest ‎ D. more death of people ‎65. The British government intends to ________.‎ ‎ A. forbid the car-washing service ‎ B. increase the price of the water used ‎ C. end the misery caused by the drought ‎ D. charge fees for the use of water ‎66. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. Germany is the only country free from the drought.‎ ‎ B. Water reserves are at their lower level in years due to the drought.‎ ‎ C. The drought is more serious in Britain than in France.‎ ‎ D. Europe will not have heavy rain until several years later.‎ ‎67. Which of the following is the most appropriate title for the passage?‎ ‎ A. Europe in Misery ‎ B. Drought Attacks Europe ‎ C. Use less A. Europe, a Would-be Africa ‎(D)‎ ‎ At one time no one could travel on an English road faster than four miles an hour. That was the law until 1896. A man had to walk in front of a car which could not go faster than the man. At night the man had to carry a red lamp.‎ ‎ Once Charles Rolls brought a car from France to England ,but he wanted to drive faster than four miles an hour .In order to have no trouble with the police ,he had a talk with some of the police officers ,who ordered their policemen to look the other way when the car came along the road. This was a good plan in the country ,but not so easy to follow in the busy streets of London.‎ ‎ One night Rolls and some friends started from London on their journey to Cambridge. One of the men walked in front with the red lamp , but he walked as fast as he could .The police became very interested in walls and shop-fronts when they ‎ heard the car ,and not one of them saw it .‎ ‎ They reached a hill ;but what a waste of time it was to drive down the hill at four miles an hour! Rolls was getting ready to jump into the car; but then he noticed a policeman who was not looking the other way. The slow car reached him.‎ ‎ “Good evening,” said the policeman ,looking at the car.‎ ‎ “Good evening,” said Rolls ,holding the lamp.‎ ‎ “One of these horseless things,” said the policeman ,looking at it with interest.‎ ‎ “Yes,” said Rolls, and waited.‎ ‎ “I’ve often wanted a ride in one ; but of course policemen can’t buy things like that.” He turned and looked hopefully in Rolls’s face.‎ ‎ “Jump in ,” said Rolls.‎ ‎ “Thanks ,” said the policeman ,and did so . “Now ,”he said ,sitting down, “you can let it go just as you like down this hill. There isn’t another policeman on this road for a mile and a half.”‎ ‎68. The policemen were told “to look the other way” (the underlined part in Paragraph 2) so that .‎ ‎ A．they could watch the car coming from the other direction ‎ B．the car could go faster than four miles an hour ‎ C．they could make sure no one was in the way ‎ D．the car would not hit them on the road ‎69. In what way did the policemen carry out the order from their officers?‎ ‎ A．They greeted Rolls when the car came along.‎ ‎ B．They walked in front of the car with a red lamp.‎ ‎ C．They pretended to be attracted by something else.‎ ‎ D．They stood on duty every 1.5 miles along the road.‎ ‎70. The policeman who said “Good evening” to Rolls wanted to .‎ ‎ A．teach Rolls a lesson B．take a free ride home ‎ C．have a talk with Rolls D．have a car ride experience ‎71. After the policeman jumped into the car ,Rolls .‎ ‎ A．dared not drive the car faster than he was allowed to ‎ ‎ B．could drive as fast as he wished within a certain distance ‎ C．could drive on any road he liked for the rest of the journey ‎ D．drove his car as fast as he could down the hill to Cambridge ‎(E)‎ With a good shopping position and the right amount (数量) of money, any educated person ought to be able to make a living out of a bookshop. It is not a difficult trade to learn and the large chain-stores can never force the small bookseller out of existence as they have done to the corner shop. But the hours of work are very long----I was only doing a part-time job, but my boss put in a seventy-hour week ,besides regular journeys out of shopping hours to buy books.‎ The real reason why I should not like to lie back in the book trade for life, ‎ however, is that while I was in it I lost my love of books. A bookseller cannot always tell the truth about his books, and that gives him a dislike for them. There was a time when I really did love books—loved the sight and smell and feel of them ----- if they were fifty or more years old, that is. Nothing pleased me quite so much as to buy a bargain lot of them on sale for several pounds .There is a peculiar flavour (独特的味道) about the unexpected books you pick up in that kind of collection：little-known eighteenth-century poets, or out-of-date geography books. For occasional (偶尔的)reading in your bath, for example, or late at night when you are too tired to go to bed there is nothing as good as a very old picture story-book..‎ But as soon as I went to work in the bookshop I stopped buying books. Seen in a mass, five or ten thousand at a time, books were dull and even a little tiresome. Nowadays I do buy one occasionally, but only if it is a book that I want to read and can't borrow, and I never buy rubbish.‎ ‎72. According to the passage,______ is one of the necessary conditions to run a bookshop.‎ A. an educated shop-owner B. a good position at a street corner C. a regular journey out of the shop D. the force of large chain-stores ‎73. The author should not like to lie back as a bookseller for life because _______.‎ A. he hated his job of selling books ‎ B. selling books was only a part-time job ‎ C. the books in the shop gave him a dislike D. he was unable to be honest about the books he sold ‎74. The books preferred by the author should be those ____‎ A. stories making readers sleepless B. valuable ones bought on sale C. peculiar ones with great expectation D. geography ones from the eighteenth century ‎75. The author will only buy new books ______.‎ A. if he feels dull and tired B. after he gives up his job as a bookseller ‎ C. which are interesting but hard to borrow D. when he throws away old ones 第二卷（共两节；满分35分）‎ 班级________ 姓名______________ 学号______‎ 第四部分：书面表达（共两节，共35分）‎ 第一节 情景作文（20分） 假定你是刘芳。今年暑期加拿大的一所中学将组织该校的学生来你所就读的学校访问。其间，‎ Lucy 将借住在你家。请你给她写封信，代表全家欢迎她的到来并告之有关事宜，内容要点如下：‎ l 上午： 参观学校各教学场所及设施；‎ l 下午： 游览繁华市区及周遍景点；‎ l 晚上： 看电视、玩游戏、聊天等。‎ 注意：‎ 1、 词数不少于60；‎ 2、 参考词汇： 安排 arrange Dear Lucy,‎ ‎_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎ Yours,‎ ‎ Liu Fang ‎ ‎ 第二节 开放作文（15分） 请根据下面提示，写一篇短文。词数不少于50。‎ It was an early summer morning in the classroom on Monday.
