It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part.

At first the Internet was only used by the government, but in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it, too.

When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth hot, but it can not make the water hot. Though the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth goes up, then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel the cool air when it moves in. You feel the wind and the wind makes you cool. Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. If we ask “Why is the ocean full of salt？” scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cool, it cracks (崩裂) , and rain falls into the cracks. The rain then carries the salt into the earth and the rivers. The rivers carry the salt into the ocean. But then we ask “What happens to the salt in the ocean？ The ocean does not get saltier every year. “ scientists are not sure about the answer to the question. We know a lot about our world. But there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious(好 奇的). （ ）66. In the first paragraph, the underlined word “it” refers to . A. The hot air over the water B. The cool air over the earth C. The hot air over the earth D. The cool air over the water （ ）67. Now scientists know . A. What makes people feel cool near a lake or an ocean in summer. B. Everything about the ocean. C. What happens to the salt in the ocean. D. Why the ocean does not get more saltier. （ ）68. A rock crack when . . A. rain falls B. it gets very hot C. it gets very cold D. Both B and C （ ）69. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage? A. The reason why people feel cool when they are near a lake or an ocean in hot weather. B. The reason why the ocean doesn’t get saltier every year. C. The reason why the water in the ocean is salty. D. The reason why rocks crack. （ ）70. The main idea of this passage is that . A. people feel cool when they are near a lake or an ocean. B. scientists can explain many things, but not everything. C. scientists can explain everything about the ocean. D. the salt in the ocean comes from rocks. 卷Ⅱ（非选择题，共 35 分） 注意事项：1．答卷Ⅱ前，将密封线左侧的项目填写清楚 2．答卷Ⅱ时，将答案用蓝色、黑色钢笔或圆珠笔直接写在试卷上。 听力部分（第二节） Ⅷ. 听短文填空（共 5 小题，每小题 1 分，计 5 分） Ⅸ.任务型阅读（共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，计 10 分） Once upon a time, there was an old woman who lived in a small house. She planted a lot of beautiful tulips (郁金香) in her garden. One night, the sounds of sweet singing and of babies laughing woke her up. She looked out of the window. The sounds seemed to come from the tulips, but she could see nothing. The next morning she walked among her flowers, but there were no signs of anyone having been there the night before. On the following night she was again wakened (弄醒) by the sounds of sweet singing and babies laughing. She got out of bed and walked softly into her garden. The old woman looked closely and she noticed that a fairy (精灵) mother was singing softly, and that in each tulip-cup was a little fairy baby, laughing and playing. T he old woman went back to her house quietly. From then on, she never picked a tulip. She didn’t allow her neighbours to pick the flowers, either.
