In early November of 1503,during Christopher Columbus' fourth and final trip to America,his ship was seriously damaged in a storm.Columbus and his men had to live on a small island for several months while they tried to repair their ship and return to Spain.
At first,the local people on the island were very kind to the European visitors,giving them all the food and clothes they needed to survive.However,as the months passed,the local people became more and more unhappy with their guests,who were tricking and stealing from them.Finally the locals decided to stop helping.Without food or any way to leave the island,Columbus' group was soon in serious trouble.
Luckily for Columbus,he had a book about the stars and planets on his ship.It described the movements of all the objects in the night sky.The book,written by a well-known German scientist,said there would be a total lunar eclipse (月食) on the evening of February 29,1504 and how long it would last.
Columbus worked out the difference in time between Germany and North America.He then had a meeting with the local leaders just before the eclipse would take place.In this meeting,Columbus told them his god was angry because the local people were no longer giving food.So his god would take away the moon to punish them.At the moment Columbus finished talking,just as he had planned,the moon began disappearing.

The first part of a new science-fiction series (系列剧)was shown on NBC last night.Star Trek is about a spacecraft(宇宙飞船)which travels faster than the speed of light.The show is developed from three ideas about the 22nd century.First,we'll find other life forms in our galaxy(星系).Second,we won't fight with these aliens.And third,we'll have great tools which will make amazing things possible.
Let's think about these predictions.If we find life forms on other planets,will they be intelligent?I hope so.But we human beings might not be friendly—I don't think we'll believe in the idea of peace one hundred years from now.But this is science fiction,so we can be optimistic!And Star Trek's idea of life
9
in the future is a lot of fun.For example,we'll be able to talk to each other with hand-held‘communicators’.And we will be able to have conversations with people who are on different planets,on a huge TV screen.You won't have to use a pen and paper to write because you'll have an electronic notebook.And if you get ill,the doctor won't have to examine you—a machine will‘read’your body.The strangest machine includes a ‘teleport’which will take people to a different place in a second!
The ideas are interesting,and in my opinion there's only one problem with Star Trek:the acting.The TV company (公司)will have to get better actors.If they do that,the show might be a success.If the acting doesn't improve,Star Trek won't last for more than one series.Of course,my prediction may be wrong.I can't see into the future!
36.What is Star Trek?
A.A TV play. B.A popular song.
C.A spacecraft. D.An alien.
37.What does the underlined word “optimistic” mean?
A.Lucky and happy. B.Hopeful and confident.
C.Helpful and creative. D.Thankful and popular.
38.What's the writer's opinion about Star Trek?
A.The life forms on other planets are stupid.
B.Interesting ideas make a new series popular.
C.The new series might not be successful without better actors.
D.Our life in the future might be different with the help of aliens.
39.Which would be the best title for the passage?
A.Aliens on Other Planets.
B.The Idea of Human Life.
C.A Science Fiction.
D.A New Series about Future.

In Paris,one freezing winter evening,I was having dinner with my friend,Mr.Dupin,the famous detective.We had just finished our meal,when there was a loud knocking at the door.Dupin opened it.There stood Mr.Germain,the chief(警长)of the Paris Police.
We welcomed him warmly,for he was an old acquaintance(熟人)whom we hadn't seen for a long time.
“I need your assistance.”said Germain.“I met a case (案件)that has been giving me a great deal
9
of trouble.”“It is very simple but very strange.”
“Also,please keep this secret.If anyone found out that I told you this,I would certainly lose my job.”
“Well,then,”said the Chief,“I have learned that a very important letter has been stolen from the king.We are sure who stole it and that the letter is in his house.”
“But who would dare do such a thing!”I cried.
“The thief,”said Germain softly,“is a man who dares do many dangerous things.He is one of the most powerful and important ministers in the government.He is Minister Danton!”
“Have you searched his house?”
“A lot of times.While Minister Danton was out,a lot of well-trained police officers carefully searched the entire house,room by room.In fact,we examined everything in the house but found nothing.”...
A month later,Dupin asked Germain and me to his house.There he took out a letter and handed it to the Chief.We were both very surprised.
Dupin explained,“I know Minister Danton very well.He could not hide the letter in any of the usual hiding places.I realized that he might have left the letter out in the open,right under everyone's nose,where no one would search for it.”
“Then I visited him with my dark glasses on to help me observe(观察)better.While we were chatting,a dirty,torn letter in the letter holder suddenly caught my eyes—unusual for the Minister,who is careful and neat.”
“I was sure it was the letter.”
“Then I purposely left my gloves behind so I could come back again.”
“The next morning,I hired a man to fire a gun on the street.While the Minister went to see what happened,I stole the
letter by replacing it with a similar one.”On it Dupin wrote these words:
Your plan was good,but mine was better.
As you can see,I took the letter.
—Based on a story by Edgar Allan Poe
40.The underlined word“assistance”in the third paragraph probably means here.
A.hobby B.help C.habit D.holiday
41.Who is the best at solving difficult cases according to the passage?
A.The writer. B.Mr.Germain.
C.Mr.Dupin. D.Minister Danton.
42.Dupin did all the following things to help get the letter back EXCEPT .
A.wearing his dark glasses when visiting Danton's house
B.leaving his gloves purposely behind in Danton's house
C.hiring a man to fire a gun on the street the next morning

43.From the passage we can infer that .

D.Germain and Danton are dangerous enemies
答案
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。叙述了一位著名的侦探通过自己的侦查方式找出被偷的信的故事。
9
40.B 词义猜测题。根据assistance的下文I met a case(案件)that has been giving me a great deal of trouble.可知,他遇到了一件麻烦的案子,需要帮助。故选B项。
41.C 推理判断题。根据第一段Germain先生上门求助可知,他破不了案,排除B项;根据第七段可知,Minister Danton是偷信的人,排除D项;第十段第一、第二句A month later,Dupin asked Gemain and me to his house.There he took out a letter and handed it...可知 Dupin 找出了小偷。故选C项。
42.D 细节理解题。根据第十二、十三、十四、十五段内容可知,A、B、C三项是为了拿回信做的事;根据第十五段中的I stole the letter by replacing it with a similar one和On it Dupin wrote these words可知,D项不是为取回信件而做的事。故选D项。
43.A 推理判断题。根据第十一段Dupin explained,“I know Minister Danton very well.”可推断,Dupin和Danton也是熟人。故选A项。
[长难句] I realized that he might have left the letter out in the open,right under everyone's nose,where no one would search for it.我意识到他可能把信留在室外了,就在大家的眼皮底下,那儿没人会去搜寻。
that引导宾语从句,在宾语从句中,might have left表示“可能已经留在……”,right under everyone's nose,where no one would search for it补充说明the open。

Almost every year in summer,many people are reported dead from drowning accidents.How to prevent such sad accidents?In my opinion,first,we shouldn't go swimming in dangerous places or places we know little about,such as reservoirs and rivers.Second,we had better not swim when we feel tired or hungry.
If we see someone fall into the water,we should save him in a proper way.For example,we can shout as loudly as we can to get those with good swimming skills to help him.
Life is valuable.We should take it seriously.We must remember that safety should always come first while swimming.
