They called the club the Old Kinderhook Club，and anyone who supported Van Buren was called“OK”．31．The authorA. believes both of the stories B．doesn’t believe a word of the storiesC．is not sure whether the stories are true D. is telling the stories just for fun32.According to the passage，President JacksonA．couldn’t draw up any documents at all B. wasn’t good at reading，writing or spellingC．of ten had his assistants sign documents for him D . didn’t like to read important papers by himself33．According to the first story, the term “OK”A. was first used by President JacksonB．was the title of some Official documentsC．was approved of by President JacksonD．was an old way to spell“all correct’’34 .According to the second story，the term‘‘OK”A．was the short way to say‘‘old Kinderhook Club”B．meant the place where President Van Buren was bornC．was the name of Van Buren’s clubD．was used to call Van Buren’s supporters in the electionBMost of us know about the Nobel Prize, especially the Nobel Peace Prize, but few of us know anything about the man who set them up. His name was Alfred Nobel. He was a great scientist and inventor himself. Besides, he had a big business. His business may surprise you. He made and sold explosives. His panies even made and sold weapons. Isn’t this something that surprises you? The man who made money from weapons should set up the Peace Prize?Though Alfred Nobel had a lot of money from weapons, he hated war. He hoped that there would be no war in the world. He was one of the richest in Europe. When he died in 1896, he left behind him a lot of money and his famous will. According to his will, most of his money was placed in a fund. He wanted the interest from the fund to be used as prizes every year. We know them as the Nobel Prizes. The Nobel Prizes are international. Alfred Nobel wanted the winners to be chosen for their work, not the country they came from.Alfred Nobel had given his whole life to his studies and work and to the b enefits of mankind. He made money all by his own efforts, but he left the world share his wealth. His inventions and wealth stay with the world for ever.35. A lfred’s business was _____.A. not making and selling weaponsB. making and selling explosivesC. making explosives and selling weaponsD. making weapons and selling explosives36. Nobel wanted to set up the Nobel Peace Prize because _____.A. he hated warB. he made enough moneyC. he wanted to get more interest from the fundD. he liked to live in a peaceful world37. Nobel Prizes e from _____.A. all Nobel’s money in the fundB. all Nobel’s money in his panyC. some of the interest in the fundD. all the interest from the fund38. Which statement of the following is Right according to the passage?A. Nobel set up his pany to sell clothes.B. Most of Nobel’s money was used for the world Wars.C. Nobel Prizes are only for some people from some special countries.D. Nobel worked hard in his life and saved lots of money for the world toshare.CTrees are useful to man in three very important ways：they provide him wood and other products；they give him shade；and they help to prevent drought(干旱)and floods．Unfortunately，in many parts of the world，man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important．In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees，he has cut them down in large numbersTwo thousand years ago，a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships，with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but，without its trees，its soil became bare and poor．When the empire fell to pieces，the country found itself faced by floods and starvation．Even where a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees，it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this．They cut down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees. So unless the government has a good system of control，or can educate the people，the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that there will be fewer trees．The results are even more serious：for where there are trees，their roots break the soil up，allowing the rain to sink in，and also bind the soil．This prevents the soil from being washed away．But where there are no trees，the rainfalls on hard ground and flows away on the surface，and this causes floods and the rain carries away the rich topsoil in which crops grow. When a11 the topsoil is gone,nothing remains but worthless desert．39．Trees are useful to man mainly in three ways，the most important of which is that they can ____A. keep him from the hot sunshine B．protect him from droughts and floodsC．make him draw quick profit from them D . enable him to build warships 40．It’s a great pity that ____A．man hasn’t realized the importance of trees to himB．man is eager to profit from treesC．man is only interested in building empiresD. man hasn’t found out that he has lost all trees41．Sooner or later the forests will disappear ______．A. unless a country has a plenty supply of treesB．unless people stop cutting down their treesC．unless the government punishes those who cut trees instead of planting them D．unless aIl people are taught the importance of planting trees42．The word“bind”in Paragraph 5 means“_____”A．to wash awayB．to make stay togetherC．to make wetD．to improveDWe can make mistakes at any age．Some mistakes we make are about money．But most mistakes are about people．“Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?…‘When I got that great job，did Jerry really feel good about it，as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” When we look back,doubts like these can make us feel bad．But when we look back,i t’s too lateWhy do we go wrong about our friends-or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning．And if we don’t really listen，we miss the feeling behind the words．Suppose someone tells you．‘‘you’re a lucky dog”．Is he really on your side? if he says．“You’re a lucky guy” or “You’re a lucky gal”．That’s being friendly．But “lucky dog”? There’s a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn’t see it himself．But bringing in the ‘‘dog” bit puts you down a little．What he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck．How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking．Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture(体态)?The look in his eyes? Stop and think．The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.43．This passage tries to tell you how to ______A．avoid mistakes about money and friendsB．avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell youC．bring the“dog’’bit into our conversationD keep people friendly without trusting them44．In listening to a person,the important thing is ______A. to notice his tone，his posture，and the look in his eyesB. to listen to how he pronounces his wordsC. not to believe what he saysD. to check his words against his manner，his tone of voice，and his posture45．If you followed the advice of the writer，you would ______A. not lose real friends who say things that do not please youB. avoid any mistakes while talking with people who envy youC. be able to get the real meaning of what people say to youD. be able to observe people as they are talking to you第二节（共5题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

Though American textbooks are As/Becauseexpensive, students would rather loan(租借）than to buy them. Students must pay back if theylost any of them.In some schools, students are required to take one or more of the followed special classes:followinghealthy education, physical education or foreign language studies.

Are any still on sale?W: Yes, there are many on the th ird floor this week. But hurry, there’s only half an hour before the store closes!W: How was the dinner at Paul’s house last night?M: Well, it was OK, except for one thing. I arrived at 8:15, but I was supposed to arrive 15 minutes earlierM: Could you pass me the salt and pepper, please?W: Of course. Here’s the salt. The pepper is all gone. Let’s ask the waiter to bring some more from the kitchen.M: I need to call my parents. I’ll start preparing dinner after I talk to them.W: Okay, I’m cleaning the spare bedroom so it’ll be ready for them tonight.M: I need something to drink -quick!W: Here’s some water.M: That won’t help. I need some fruit juice or milk. I just ate some Sichuan pepper!W: Tomorrow is Thursday. Are we still going for a walk in the morning?M: Of course. We do it every week. But I have to cancel breakfast with you afterwards. I have an early dentist appointment, and I can’t eat before it.W: That’s fine. Why don’t we eat together on Friday, then? I want you to try a new egg dish I learned how to make from my grandmother.M: Saturday’s better for me. I have a meeting at 8:00 on Friday morning for a work project. How is Saturday at 9:00 a.m.?W: Sure, that sounds good.M: Honey, your mother and I have decided you’re old enough to have your own bank account.

When they’re too old to live alone, should we put them in a home?M: Yes, they’ll live with you or me. Or maybe they will take turns with our homes, first living with my family and then with yours.W: I was talking about an elderly care home, where they have nurses and other staff who help them. It’s also common in the United Kingdom.M: That sounds terrible! I would never let somebody else take care of our parents. You know how it is in our culture in China. We ta ke care of our parents when they’re old. Even though we live in the U.S., we have to stick with our traditions!W: Well, what if our homes stress them out?M: Don’t worry about that. We will find a way to make them comfortable.W: I just rented a car. Now you get to drive it...M: Why me?W: Because I can’t drive on the left side of the road.M: Sure you can! I think it’s easier than driving on the right. Why don’t you give it a try?W: I’m afraid I’ll get into an accident. You have experience driving in E ngland.M: All right, I’ll drive. London is a little confusing, anyway.W: I’m used to driving in the French countryside, you know. There’s hardly any traffic where I’m from.M: I thought you lived in Paris for a long time. It must be hard to drive there, too. W: I didn’t have a car when I was in college in Paris. I got around mainly by bus.M: And on foot, right? London and Paris are both great cities for walking. You know what my favorite walking city is, though?W: New York?M: No. Oxford, where we’re he aded to today!M: Good afternoon, students. We have finally made some changes to the school clothing rules. The main differences are about hair and shoes. First, I’ll talk about the problem with shoes. Some of you have been wearing very expensive designer shoes to class. This has some bad influence on our students. We want the school to be an exciting but serious place to learn. So, we are keeping out all shoes that cost more than $100. The second issue is hairstyles. While we understand that you want to express yourselves, we have to say no to colorful hair. A little red or blue or even making your hair blond is OK. But bright pink hair or crazy hair that has five different colors? That’s too much for the classroom. You can wait to experiment with your hair during summer vacation. During the school year, we want you to keep your minds on your work so you can do well on your tests. The exams will be harder this year, so we have a lot of work to do!。

Take them to the other fellow on the main street; he'll fix them for you right away.”But I'd had my eye on his shop for a long time. Just looking at his bench loaded with tools and pieces of leather, I knew he was a skilled craftsman. “No,” I replied, “the other fellow can't do it well.”“The other fellow” was one of those shopkeepers who fix shoes and make keys “while-U-wait” -- without knowing much about mending shoes or making keys. They work carelessly, and when they have finished sewing back a sandal strap you might as well just throw away the pair.My man saw I wouldn't give in, and he smiled. He wiped his hands on his blue apron, looked at my shoes, had me write my name on one shoe with a piece of chalk and said, “e back in a week.”I was about to leave when he took a pair of soft leather boots off a shelf.“See what I can do?” he said with pride. “Only three of us in Paris can do this kind of work.”When I got back out into the street, the world seemed brand-new to me. He was something out of an ancient legend, this old craftsman with his way of speaking familiarly, his very strange, dusty felt hat, his funny accent from who-knows-where and, above all, his pride in his craft.These are times when nothing is important but the bottom line, when you can do things any old way as long as it “pays”, when, in short, people look on work as a path to ever-increasing consumption (消费) rather than a way to realize their own abilities. In such a period it is a rare fort to find a cobbler who gets his greatest satisfaction from pride in a job well done.5. Which of the following is true about the old cobbler?A. He was equipped with the best repairing tools.B. He was the only cobbler in the Marais.C. He was proud of his skills.D. He was a native Parisian.6. The sentence “He was something out of an ancient legend.” (paragraph 7) implies that__________.A. nowadays you can hardly find anyone like himB. it was difficult to municate with this manC. the man was very strangeD. the man was too old7. According to the author, many people work just to__________________.A. realize their abilitiesB. gain happinessC. make moneyD. gain respect8. This story wants to tell us that_____________________.A. craftsmen make a lot of moneyB. whatever you do, do it wellC. craftsmen need self-respectD. people are born equalCWhen I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn't understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laughs turned into crying.So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing are controlled by the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so does crying.Whatever helps us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and crying seems to work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us bee kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and fort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don't even know we're very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.Just as crying can be healthy, not crying---holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering-can be bad for physical health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illness. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don't fight it. It's a natural, healthy and emotional response.9. It can be inferred from the textthat____________________.A. there are two ways to keep healthyB. emotional health has a close relationship to physical healthC. crying and laughing play the same rolesD. crying does more good to health than laughing10. According to the author, which of the following statements is true?A. Crying is the best way to get help from others.B. Fighting back tears may cause some health problems.C. We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.D. We must cry if we want to reduce pressure.11. What might be the most suitable title for the text?A. Why We CryB. How to Keep HealthyC. Power of TearsD. New Scientific DiscoveryDAs Internet users bee more dependent on the Internet to store information, are people remembering less? If you know your puter will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the firstexperiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a puter. The first group of people understood that the puter would save the information. The second group understood that the puter would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific puter folder. Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called "transactive memory".According to Sparrow, we are not being people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, puter users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesn't mean we are being either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.12. The passage begins with two questions to ___________________.A. introduce the main topicB. show the author's attitudeC. describe how to use the InternetD. explain how to store information13. What can we learn about the first experiment?A. Sparrow's team typed the information into a puter.B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.C. The first group did not try to remember the information.D. The second group did not understand the information.14. In transactive memory, people ___________________.A. keep the information in mindB. change the quantity of informationC. organize information like a puterD. remember how to find the information15. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research?A. We are using memory differently.B. We are being more intelligent.C. We have poorer memories than before.D. We need a better way to get information.第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Low-Cost Gifts for Mother’s DayGift No. 1Offer to be your mother’s health friend. Promise to be there for any and all doctor’s visits whether a disease or a regular medical check-up. Most mothers always say “no need,” another set of eyes and ears is always a good idea at a doctor’s visit. The best part? This one is free.Gift No. 2Help your mother organize all of her medical records, which include the test results and medical information. Put them all in one place. Be sure to make a list of all of her medicines and what times she takes them. “Having all this information in one place could end up saving your mother’s life,” Dr. Marie Savard said.Gift No. 3Enough sleep is connected to general health conditions. “Buy your mother cotton sheets and fortable pillows to encourage better sleep,” Savard said. “We know that good sleep is very important to our health.”Gift No. 4Some gift panies such as Presents for Purpose allow you to pay it forward this Mother’s Day by picking gifts in which 10 percent of the price you pay goes to a charity. Gift givers can choose from a wide variety of useful but inexpensive things —many of which are “green” — and then choose a meaningful charity from a list. When your mother gets the gift, she will be told that she has helped the chosen charity.1.What are you advised to do for your mother at doctor’s visits?A. Take notes.B. Be with her.C. Buy medicine.D. Give her gifts.2. Where can you find a gift idea to improve your mother’s sleep?A. In Gift No. 1.B. In Gift No. 2.C. In Gift No. 3.D. In Gift No. 4.3. Buying gifts from Presents for Purpose allows mothers to ______.A. give others helpB. be well-organizedC. get extra supportD. enjoy good sleepBJimmy is an automotive mechanic, but he lost his job a few months ago. He has a good heart, but always feared applying for a new job.One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car. Obviously there was something wrong with the car. Jimmy immediately went up to lend him a hand. When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interv iew. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please. I insist.” Jimmy agreed.Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease （油脂） on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. Finally his name was called. The interviewer was sitting on a large chair facing the office window. Rocking the chair back and forth, he asked, “Do you really need to be interviewed?” Jimmy’s heart sank. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself.Then the interv iewer turned the chair and to Jimmy’s surprise, it was the old man he helped earlier in the morning. It turned out he was General Manager of the pany.“Sorry I had to keep you waiting, but I was pretty sure I made the right decision to have you as part of our workforce before you even stepped into the office. I just know you’d be a trustworthy worker. Congratulations!” Jimmy satdown and they shared a cup of well-deserved coffee as he landed himself a new job.4.Why did Jimmy apply for a new job?A. He was out of work.B. He hoped to find a better boss.C. He wanted a higher position.D. He was bored with his job.5.What did Jimmy see on the way to the interview?A. an old man’s car broke down.B. a wild man was pushing a car.C. a terrible accident happened.D. A friend’s car had a flat tyre.6.Why did the old man offer Jimmy a ride?A. He needed a traveling panion.B. He was also to be interviewed.C. He always helped people in need.D. He was thankful to Jimmy.7.What can we learn from Jimmy’s experience？A. Where there is a will, there’s a way.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. Two heads are better than one.D. Good is rewarded with good.CIt happened to me recently. I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama’s Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President. A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was, in his words, “a brilliantly written book”. However, he then went on to talk about Mr. Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all. I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.And it seems that my friend is not the only one. Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven’t. In the World Book Day’s “Report on Guilty Secrets”, Dreams From My Father is at number 9. The report lists ten books, and various authors, which people have lied about reading, and as I’m not one to lie too often (I’d hate to be caught out), I’ll admit here and now tha t I haven’t read the entire top ten. But I am pleased to say that, unlike 42 percent of people, I have read the book at number one, George Orwell’s 1984. I think it’s really brilliant.The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it.It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Fyodor Dostoevsky (I haven’t read him, but haven’t lied about it either) and Herman Melville.Asked why they lied, the most mon reason was to “impress” someone they were speaking to. This could be tricky if the conversation became more in-depth!But when asked which authors they actually enjoy, people named J. K. Rowling, John Grisham, Sophie Kinsella (ah, the big sellers, in other words). Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story (I’ll e clean: I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never done so).8. How did the author find his friend a book liar?A. By judging his manner of speaking.B. By mentioning a famous name.C. By looking into his background.D. By discussing the book itself.9. Which of the following is a “guilty secret” according to the World Book Day report?A. 42% of people pretended to have read 1984.B. Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list.C. The author admitted having read 9 books.D. Dreams From My Father is hardly read.10. By lying about reading, a person hopes to ________.A. control the conversation.B. appear knowledgeable.C. learn about the book.D. make more friends.11. What is the author’s attitude to 58% of readers?A. DoubtfulB. UncaringC. FavorableD. FriendlyDFear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting and pumping blood around their bodies, pared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle ofcontraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said, “Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.”The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr. Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don’t see — and guide whether we see fear.”To further understand this relationship, the scientists also used a brain scanner to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person’s feeling of fear. “We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear,” Dr. Garfinkel said.“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders, and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.”12. What is the finding of the study?A. Fear is a result of one’s relaxed heartbeat.B. One’s heart affects how he feels fear.C. Fear has something to do with one’s health.D. One’s fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear.13. The study was carried out by analyzing _______.A. volunteers’ heartbeats when they saw terrible pictures.B. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditions.C. volunteers’reactions to horrible pictures and data from their brain scans.D. different pictures shown to volunteers and their heart-brain munication.14. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “mechanism” in Paragraph 6?A. orderB. systemC. machineD. treatment15. This study may contribute to _______.A. treating anxiety and stress better.B. explaining the cycle of fear and anxiety.C. finding the key to the heart-brain munication.D. understanding different fears in our hearts and heads.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him. Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could — he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. Having been stuck in the snow for two days, Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.24.

Benefits of doing exerciseDIn its early history, Chicago had floods frequently, especially in the spring, making the streets so muddy that people, horses, and carts got stuck. An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this: A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street. Asked if he needs help, he replies, “No, thanks. I’ve got a good horse under me.”The city planner decided to build an underground drainage (排水) system, but there simply wasn’t enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level. The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city. An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt. This raised the level of the city’s streets by as much as 12 feet.This of course created a new problem: dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago. Building owners were faced with a choice: either change the first floors of their buildings into basements or lift the entire buildings to meet the new street level. Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily. But what about large, heavy structures like the Tremont Hotel, which was a six-story brick building?That’s where George Pullman came in. He had developed some house-moving skills successfully. To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel, Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews (千斤顶) beneath the building’s foundation and turn the jackscrews the same amount at the same time, thus raising the building slowly and evenly. Astonishingly, the Tremont Hotel stay open during the entire operation, and many of its guests didn’t even notice anything was happening.Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicago’searly history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem.32. Why was the joke about Chicago mentioned in Paragraph 1?A. To explain why horses were widely used.B.

It was mainly made of wood.C. It was too heavy to move easily.D. There was no equipment to use.35. What can be inferred from the text?A. Tremont Hotel was the biggest building in Chicago.B.
