阅读下列内容,从每小题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。
A
Have you ever taken the train from Beijing to Shanghai or the train from Shanghai to
Beijing? Then how much do you know about the Beijing-Shanghai railway?
The Beijing-Shanghai railway was completed in 1968. The line runs 1,462 kilometers
between China’s two main cities and passes through five provinces and the city of Tianjin.
Since opening, it has been one of the busiest lines in our country. Ten trains run on
the Beijing-Shanghai railway every day. Five of them are non-stop. Now trains can travel
at 250 kilometers per hour at most and the time of the travel is only 10 hours.
China has become one of the countries with high-speed train services. Trains run at the
speed of 200 kilometers per hour on 6,003 kilometers of track(轨道), and on some parts, the
highest speed can be 250 kilometers per hour. The 6,003 kilometers of track serves both
high-speed passenger trains and low-speed cargo(货物) trains.
Railway operators(驾驶员) have to deal with the problem of the speed gap between the 6
two kinds of trains to make sure they both run safely.
( )51. The Beijing-Shanghai railway is _________
A. 1,462 kilometers B. 1,968 meters C. 6,003 kilometers D.200
kilometers
( )52. Half of the trains on the Beijing-Shanghai railway are ________.

D. The Beijing-Shanghai railway has been one of the busiest lines in China.
B
Do you know the phrase “Weibo Addicts” (微博控)? Do you write a Weibo? If you
don’t, you are “out”!
Weibo means microblog. People may spend much time writing a blog, but it takes a little
time to write a microblog. Why? Because every message on a microblog is less than 140 words.
Microblog started in the USA. It came to China in 2009 and it grows very fast. In 2011,
the number of Chinese micro-bloggers grew to 300 million. People write microblogs for many
reasons. For many microblog users, it is a great way of learning the freshest news, talking
with friends and sharing different kinds of information, including news, everyday life,
pictures, music, videos and so on.
It is easy and fast to send a message on a microblog. However, this can also bring
problems and even panic (恐慌). For example, when the big earthquake and tsunami (海啸) hit
Japan in March, 2011, messages like “Salt can help people fight radiation (辐射)” were
hot on microblogs. Then a crazy buying of salt followed. Later people knew it was just a
rumor (谣言).
In a word, microblog plays a new part in the life of Chinese people.
( )54. What does Weibo Addicts in the first paragraph mean?
A. People who are crazy about Weibo. B. People who seldom use Weibo.
C. People who first made Weibo. D. People who need Weibo least.
( )55. What is NOT an advantage (优势) of Weibo?
A. It is short but carries many meanings. B. It can help us learn the latest news.7
C. It can send rumors. D. It is easy to use.
( )56. What does Para. 2 mainly talk about?
A. How to use Weibo. B. Why Weibo is so popular.
C. Who is using Weibo. D. What Weibo is.
( )57. Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Writing a microblog needs much time.
B. Microblog appeared in China only one year ago but it is so popular now.
C. As a popular thing, microblog has its advantages(优势) and disadvantages(劣势).
D. More and more Chinese show great interest in microblog because it started in the
USA.
C
Singing songs is fun, but is it also useful? For learning English pronunciation(发
音), Mr. Joe thinks songs are the most useful way to learn. At the same time, you can learn
some new words and phrases while singing songs. Mr. Joe has used songs to help himself learn
French, Spanish, Japanese and Chinese. You should do the same.
Some words used in songs are not everyday English, so you have to be careful how you use
song lyrics(歌词)when you speak. Most words and sentences are very useful. You don't have
to sing songs aloud if you are shy, but after learning a song you should be able to follow
the words without looking at the lyrics. When you can do that, you have learned something
that you will never forget!
Some good songs to listen to are from the Beatles, John Denver and the Carpenters. Their
songs are not too fast and the lyrics are close to normal spoken English. Just for fun,
you can try Mr. Joe's favorite singer, B.B. King. His songs are not easy at all! If you
can understand even 80% of "Why I Sing the Blues", you are a very advanced student.
If you become good at singing English songs, you can try to go to karaoke and sing with
your friends. When you are able to sing a song in another language, even if you don't sing
so beautifully, you will really impress(给......深刻印象) other people!
( )58. Which is Mr. Joe’s mother language?
A. French. B. English. C. Chinese. D. Japanese.
( )59. The songs from the Beatles are easy to learn, one of the reasons may be______.
A. everyone likes the songs B. John Denver's voice is sweet
C. the lyrics of the songs are beautiful D. the lyrics are close to normal spoken
English
( )60. The underlined word "advanced" in Paragraph 3 can be replaced by______.8
A. careful B. excellent C. kind-hearted D. lazy
( )61. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. English Songs. B. The Famous Band-The Beatles.
C. English Songs helps English Learning. D. How to Learn English.
D

The best way of learning a language is using it. The best way of learning English
is talking in English as much as possible. Sometimes people will say things too quickly
and you can’t understand them. But if you keep your sense of humor, you can always have
a good laugh at the mistakes you make. Don’t be sad if people seem to be laughing at
your mistakes. It’s better for people to laugh at your mistakes than to be angry with
you. The most important thing for learning English is: “Don’t be afraid of making
mistakes because everyone makes mistakes.”
C.听短文,选择正确答案。听两遍。

not all English people eat like that. Some of them have their dinner in the middle of the
day. Their meals are breakfast, dinner, tea and supper and all these meals are very simple.
