They had only basic ways of creating light, and yet they found a way of using this simple technology in isolated(孤零零的) places to save ships from hitting rocks.Secondly, visiting lighthouses will help us to understand the lives of lighthouse keepers. By their very nature, lighthouses were built on some rocks of cliffs. Thus, the lighthouse keepers often lived lonely lives. To walk arund their small home, and imagine the angry storm outside beating against the walls, is to take a step towards understanding the lives they had.The reasons for a visit to a lighthouse are not all so backward-looking in time. It is true that lighthouses were built in out-of-way places. But on a pleasant sunny summer day, this very isolation has a natural beauty that many people will love to experience. Therefore, with the gentle waves touching all round the lighthouse, the visitor is likely to think it is a world preferable to the busy and noisy modern life.Another reason for considering a visit is that the lighthouses themselves can be very attractive buildings. Mankind could often not be content just to put up a basic structure, but but felt the need, even in such an isolated place, to build with an artistic touch. The result is a view for tired eyes to enjoy.Finally, lighthouses have a romantic attraction, summed up by the image of the oil-skin coated keeper climbing his winding stairs to take care of the light to warn ships and save lives.56. What is the reason to look back into the past of a lighthouse?A. To escape from the busy and noisy city.B. To look for the tools used by our ancestors.C. To experience the natural beauty of a lighthouse.D. To learn about the living condition of lighthouse keepers.57. The underlined phrase “out-of-way”in paragraph 4 means _________.A. fsr-awayB. dangerousC. ancientD. secret58. Lighthouses were often built with an artistic touch _________.A. to attract visitorsB. to guide passing shipsC. to give a pleasant sightD. to remember lighthouse keepers59. How many reasons are mentioned for a visit to a lighthouse?A. ThreeB. FourC. FiveD. SixBA woman whose sports car was stolen with her dog in it put up notices all over the area that made it clear getting back her pet was more important than her car.“Whoever did this can keep my car. Please let Benjerman come home,” the notice said.It is not known whether the thief showed any pity, but almost 30 hours after the 1 pm theft Friday, Kimberly Atkins of Dover and Benjerman, a 12-year-old balck retriever(猎犬), were reunited after police located them in Barrington.“He’s hungry, he’s dirty, but he is very happy to be home.” Atkins said.The car was found at about 5 pm Saturday off Route 125 in a swampy area frequented by off-the-road cars and dirt bi kes. However, the police couldn’t control Benjerman, and they had to call Atkins to come and get him.Atkins said the thief cared for Benjerman a little by providing him with some dirt cat food. She believed Benjerman ended up drinking some muddy water in the area.She said they have been together for nearly 11years after she took him back from a society shelter in Dallas, Texas.Before Benjerman was found, Atkins and several friends put up notices all over the city and in Somersworth. They also contacted animal shelters throughout southern New Hampshire and Massachusetts.The notice stated there was a reward, and also that the dog needed medication. Any caller could remain anonymous(匿名的).Atkins had parked the car outside a hardware shore with the keys inside and gone in to rent a carpet cleaner. “It was 10 minutes and I came out and my car was gone along with Benjerman in broad daylight,” Atkins said.

Found and taken from the north Atlantic 6 days after the sinking of the Titanic in 1912' his tiny body so moved the salvage (救援) workers that they called him “our baby.” In their home port of Halifax, Nova Scotia, people collected money for a headstone in front of the baby's grave (墓), carved with the words: “To the memory of an unknown child.” He has rested there ever since.But history has a way of uncovering its secrets. On Nov. 5, this year, three members of a family from Finland arrived at Halifax and laid fresh flowers at the grave. “This is our baby,” says Magda Schleifer, 68, a banker. She grew up hearing stories about a great-aunt named Maria Panula,42, who had sailed on the Titanic for America to be reunited with her husband. According to the information Mrs. Schleifer had gathered, Panula gave up her seat on a lifeboat to search for her five children -- including a 13-month-old boy named Eino from whom she had become separated during the final minutes of the crossing. "We thought they were all lost in the sea," says Schleifer.Now, using teeth and bone pieces taken from the baby's grave, scientists have compared the DNA from the Unknown Child with those collected from members of five families who lost relatives on the Titanic and never recovered the bodies. The result of the test points only to one possible person: young Eino. Now, the family sees: no need for a new grave. "He belongs to the people of Halifax," says Schleifer. "They've taken care of him for 90 years."Adapted from People, November 25, 200264. The baby travelled on the Titanic with his_______.A. motherB. parentsC. auntD. relatives65. What is probably the boy's last name?A. SchleiferiB. Eino.C. Magda.D. Panula.66.

This text is mainly about" how_______.A. the unknown baby's body was taken from the north AtlanticB. the unknown baby was buried in Halifax, Nova ScotiaC. people found out who the unknown baby wasD. people took care of the unknown baby for 90 yearsDThe problem of the American robin（画眉）is an example of the hidden dangers involved in the use of the insecticides（杀虫剂）.Elm trees in the United States, like those in Europe are being attacked by Dutch elm disease. This fungal（菌）is spread by the elm back beetle.American scientists have attacked the disease by attacking the carrier. They have treated the trees with a chemical, which kills the beetles. But the substance they use sticks to the leaves of the trees. These leaves are a basic food of a certain type of earthworm which is itself not affected by the insecticide. The worms can store up huge quantities of this poison(毒药) in their systems. The robin eats these worms and is thus being poisoned by its normal food.The bird is already in danger of dying out in some areas. It is sometimes difficult to foresee side effects like these, which is why many people object to the use of chemical sprays. The fear that man may be poisoning himself in the same way as he has poisoned the American robin and other higher organisms（生物）at the top of food chains.68.

In fact, I remember the e vening I was at a girlfriend’s house, and we were watching a movie—a terribly romantic movie. He(the hero of the movie) was in love, she (his lady) was beautiful, and they were both smoking. My friend had only two cigarettes from a pack in her mother’s pur se, and she gave one to me. It was my first time.My parents didn’t care much. They both smoked, and my older brother did too. My mother told me that smokers don’t grow tall, but I was already 5’6 ” (taller than most of the boys in my class), so I was happy to hear that “fact”. In school, the teachers talked against smoking, but the cigarette advertisements were so exciting. The men in the ads were so good-looking and so successful, and the women were beautiful and sophisticated（老于世故的）.I read a book called “How to stop smoking”. The writer said that smoking wastes time, and that cigarettes cost alot of money. “So what?” I thought, the book didn’t say that smoking can take away years of your life. But ten years later, everyone began to hear about the negative effects of cigarette smoke: lung disease, cancer, and heart problems. After that, there was a health warning on every pack of cigarettes. I didn’t pay much attention to the reports and warnings. I felt healthy, and I thought I was taking good care of myself.Then two events changed my mind. First, I started to cough. I thought it was just a cold, but it didn’t get better. Second, my brother got lung cancer. He got sicker and sicker. My brother and I used to smoke cigarettes together over twenty years age, and we smoked our last cigarettes together the day before he died. I sat with him in his hospital room, and I decided to quit. “No more cigarettes, ever.” I said to myself.However, it was very hard to stop. Nicotine（尼古丁）is a drug; as a result, cigarettes cause a powerful addiction(上瘾). I tried several times to quit on my own—without success. I made excuses. I told myself: Smoking helps me keep my figure—i.e. I don’t gain weight when I smoke. Smoking not only relaxes me but it also helps me think clearly. I’m a free, liberated woman. I can smoke when I want to.Finally, I ran out of excuses—I might say my excuses went up in smoke. I joined the “Stop Smoking” program at the local hospital, which also ended up in failure.72. The “fact” in Paragraph 2 refers to .A. her admiration for the men in the adsB. her mother’s warning that smokers don’t grow tallC. her height of 5’6’’D. the teachers’ negative attitude towards smoking73. The book called “How to Stop Smoking” .A. cost the writer a lot of time to readB. was not taken seriously by the writerC. warned the reader of the risk of lung cancerD. left the writer in puzzle74.

I should call to me all my dear friends and look long into their faces, imprinting(刻上) upon my mind the outward evidences of the beauty that is within them, I should let my eyes rest, too, on the face of a baby, so that I could Catch a vision of the eager, innocent beauty which precedes the individual's consciousness of the conflicts which life develops.And I should like to look into the loyal, trusting eyes of my dogs--the serious, clever little Scottie, Darkie, and the strong, understanding Great Dane, Helga, whose warm, tender, and playful friendships are so comforting to me.On that busy first day I should also view the small simple things of my home. I want to see the warm colors in the carpets under my feet, the pictures on the walls, the lovely small furniture that transforms a house into home. My eyes would rest respectfully on the books in dot-raised type which I have read, but they would be more eagerly interested in the printed books which seeing people can read, for during the long night of my life the books I have read and those which have been read to me have built themselves into a great shining lighthouse, showing me the deepest channels of human life and the human spirit.In the afternoon of that first seeing day, I should take a long walk in the woods and intoxicate (使陶醉) my eyes on the beauties of the world of Nature trying desperately to absorb in a few hours the vast brilliance which ispresenting itself to those who can see. On the way home from my woodland trip, my path would lie close to a farm so that I might see the patient horses ploughing in the field and the peaceful content of men living close to the soil. And I should pray for the glory of a colorful sunset.When dusk had fallen, I should experience the double delight of being able to see by artificial light which the genius of man has created to extend the power of his sight when Nature brings darkness.In the night of that first day of sight, I should not be able to sleep, so full would be my mind of the memories of the day!模块一综合测试（B）卷参考答案II、参考答案与提示：一、1-5 BC C B C 6-10 C A BBC 11-15 A A B B C 16-20 C C C B B二. 21. 选B。
