(20’)A. Choose the best words to complete the passage “Early Films” (5’)EARLY FILMSThe earliest films were short, lasting only one minute or less. People could, for one cent , see simple 26films of trains, fire engines, parades, crowds on city streets, and 27subjects. Soon 20-minute pictures of news items were being shown in theatres at the end of the regular stage show. 28, films used a new method (putting the beginning of one scene upon the end of the scene before) for magical effects and to tie a story together. In 1903 a films was made about a train robbery. Much of the action took place at the same time—the robbers 29, the men meeting and planning to capture them—and the scenes 30smoothly, back and forth, from one scene to another instead of unnaturally showing each scene31. The was the earliest successful film in which scenes were filmed at different places and times and then 32to make a logical story. A short time later, theaters showed for five cents a whole hour’s entertainment of short films – comedy,travel, and drama. These films were simple and crude, and many were vulgar. Gradually, the 33of the audiences improved as the techniques improved.Before 1910 actors were employed in films without their names being given, because the producers were afraid that, if an actor became well known, he might demand more money. But later it became known that a film with a 34actor in it could be sold at a higher price to theater owners than a film in which the actor was not known. Soon ―movie stars‖ won fame wherever films were shown. By 1915 the more popular stars were 35as much as $2,000 a week, and large theaters were of several types: comedies, emphasizing speed, movement, and camera tricks;―westerns‖, which showed, then as now, the American cowboy fighting on the side of law and justice; murder mysteries and crime stories, and special films on art, music, and other cultural subjects.26.

Between the Philippines and Panama, the ocean is more than 10,000 miles wide. In some places it is more than six miles deep. This ocean is named by Portuguese explorer, Ferdinand Magellan who led the first expedition(探险) around the world. In 1519, when he first saw the ocean, he called it ―Pacific‖ because it was so smooth and calm compared to the Atlantic he had just crossed.51.

Which of the following is the best tile for the passage?A. Continents and OceansB. The Pacific OceanC. Magellan’s First Expedition Around the worldD. How the Pacific was DiscoveredBIn the US people prefer waiting for a table to sitting with people they don’t know. This means a host may not seat a small group until a small table is available, even if a large one is free. If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know, it is impolite to light up a cigarette without first asking if it will disturb them.At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served cold water before you order. You may find the bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill(再注满).Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing times for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars. Especially in large cities, stores may be open 24 hours a day.Servings in restaurants are often large, too large for many people. If you can’t finish your meal but would like to enjoy the food later, ask your waitress or waiter for a ―doggie bag‖. It may have a picture of a dog on it, but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself.Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal. Some people have―Sunday dinner‖. This is an especially big noon meal.Tips are not usually added to the check. They are not included in the price of the meal, either. A tip of about 15% is expected and you should leave in on the table when you leave. In some restaurants, a check is brought on a plate and you put your money there. Then the waiter or waitress brings your change.56. Which of the following might be true according to the first paragraph?A. American people like sitting with people they don’t know.B.

They may go over water, on the water, over land, or on land. History is filled with stories of people who used wind and air for fun and travel. One story that goes back about 3,000 years tells of two Greek men who escaped from prison by using wings made of feathers and wax(蜡). The story says the wax wings melted when one man flew too near the sun. His feathers fell off and he crashed into the sea. It those Greeks had used hang-glider or self-soaring wings fortheir prison escape, there wouldn’t have been any wax for the sun to melt. Of course no one believes they got near the sun, anyway.For self-soaring or hang-gliding there should be wind, and plenty of it. A windof 20 miles per hour or more is good for flying. Before flying, a rider sets up his hang-glider at the top of a hill. The hang-glider must be unfolded（展开）set up facing into the wind. If the front or point is n’t facing the wind, the hang-glider may go flying without the rider.Hang-gliders are made of tightly woven cloth, lightweight metal rods(杆), and strong wires. The cloth is so tightly woven that it’s almost airtight. The rods and wires should be made of very strong material. If something should break during a flight—well, remember the Greeks.People have always wanted to fly, and people have always wanted to add beauty to their lives. Beauty can come from colors, shapes, and forms. Self-soaring people add beauty to their hang-gliders with colors and decorations. Quite often a person may have a hang-glider specially made by a professional hang-glider builder. The hang-glider builder can let the buyer pick the cloth for color and decoration. But when it c omes to the shape, the professional builder doesn’t let the buyer have much to say. A hang-glider has to be built to fly. That’s why the shape is important. People who build their won hang-gliders can decorate then any way they like, but if the shape isn’t right, they wouldn’t do much flying. After being strapped in, ahang-glider is ready to go. The flight starts with downhill run into the wind. The wind catches the hang-glider and gives the rider the lift needed to fly. For the first part of the ride, the rider tries for speed and altitude.(高度)Without these, a flight may be over before it even starts. As soon as thehang-glider gains speed and altitude3, a flier can start to control the direction of flight. For a right turn, the rider leans to the right and movers the steering bar (操纵杆) to the left. This tips the hang-glider to the right and it makes a turn. For a left turn, the rider leans left.61. When a hang-glider begins to fly, the flier should set up his hang-glider______ .A. at the top of a hillB. on an airport runwayC. downhillD. not facing the wind62. Who decides on the shape of a hang-glider?A. The buyer.B. The hang-glider builder.C. The government.D. The rider.63. The fact that history is filled with stories of how people used air for travel shows that people ______ .A. have never wanted to fly until the 20th centuryB. have never even thought about flying until recentlyC. have always been interested in flyingD. thought flying was only a funny story64. When the hang-glider begins traveling high enough and fast enough, the hang-glider flier should ______ .A. end the flight right awayB. pay more attention to the shape of the hang-glider than the color and decorationC. fly higher not to fall into the seaD. control the directions of the flight65. The underlined word ―self-soaring‖ in the second para graph means ___ .A. a way of flying without powerB. something out of the ordinaryC. moving the barD. running downhill into the windIV. 改错。
