A
Imagine a classroom missing the one thing that’s long been considered a necessary part to reading and writing -- paper. No notebooks, no textbooks, no test paper. Nor are there any pencils or pens, which always seem to run out of ink at the critical moment.
A “paperless classroom” is what more and more schools are trying to achieve. Students don’t do any handwriting in this class. Instead, they use palm（手掌）size, or specially-designed computers. The teacher downloads texts from Internet libraries and sends them to every student’s personal computer.
Having computers also means that students can use the Web. They can look up information on any subject they’re studying from maths to social science.
High school teacher Judy Herrell in Florida, US, described how her class used the Web to learn about the war in Afghanistan over one year ago.
“We could touch every side of the country through different site s, from the forest to refugee camps（难民营）,” she said. “Using a book that’s three or four years old is impossible.”
And exams can go online too. At a high school in Tennessee, US, students take tests on their own computers. The teacher records the grades on the network for everyone to see and then copies them to his own electronic grade book.
A paperless classroom is a big step towards reducing the waste of paper. High school teacher Stephanie Sorrell in Kentucky, US, said she used to give about 900 pieces of paper each week to each student.
“Think about the money and trees we could save with the computers,” she said.
But, with all this technology, there’s always the risk that the machines will break down. So, in case of a power failure or technical problems, paper textbooks are still widely available for these hi-tech students.
56. What does the part of the last sentence in the first paragraph, “run out of ink at the critical moment” mean?
A. Pens may not write well at the critical moment.
B. Pens get lost easily, so you may not find them at the critical moment.
C. Pens may have little or no ink at the critical moment.
D. Pens use ink, while pencils don’t.
57. In a paperless classroom, what is a must?
A. Pens.
B. Computers.
C. Information.
D. Texts.
58. The high school teacher, Judy Herrell, used the example of her class to show that ________.
A. the Web could take them everywhere
B. the Web taught them a lot
C. the Web is a good tool for information
D. the Web, better than the textbooks, can give the latest and comprehensive （全面的）information
59. The paperless classrooms will benefit ________ the most.
A. students
B. teachers
C. trees
D. computers
60. What does the phrase in the last paragraph ‘break down’ mean?
A. Break into pieces.
B. Stop working.
C. Fall down.
D. Lose control
B
Big Ben is the nick name for the great bell of the clock in London. The name was given in honor of Sir Benjamin Hall, who was in charge of the work when the bell was built in 1856.
The clock has become a landmark of the United Kingdom and London, particularly in the visual media（可视媒体）.When a television or film-maker wishes to quickly show a non-UK audience a certain location in Britain, a popular way to do so is to show an image of the Clock Tower.
The Clock Tower is a focus of New Year celebrations in the United Kingdom, with radio and TV stations turning to its chimes（报时钟声） to welcome the start of the year.
Londoners who live a proper distance from the Clock Tower and Big Ben can, by means of listening to the chimes both live and on the radio or television, hear the bell strike thirteen times on New Year’s Eve. This is possible because the speed of sound is a lot slower than the speed of radio waves.
Big Ben has appeared in many films. In the 1978 version of The Thirty-Nine Steps, the hero attempted to halt the clock’s progress to prevent a linked bomb blowing up by hanging from the minute hand of its western face. It was also used in the filming of Shanghai Knights starring Jackie Chan and Owen Wilson, and was described as being partially destroyed in the film Doctor Who. An animated version（卡通版） of the clock
was also used as the setting in the Walt Disney film The Great Mouse Detective, and was shown being destroyed by a UFO in the film Mars Attacks!
61. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The nickname of the clock was given by Benjamin.
B. The clock strikes thirteen times to welcome the New Year.
C. The radio and TV make a mistake about the clock’s chimes.
D. Benjamin was responsible for the work when the bell was built.
62. The second paragraph mainly wants to show us that Big Ben is _________.
A. a symbol of UK and London
B. a most popular scene for film-makers
C. a must-see sight for tourists to London
D. a popular place to have pictures taken
63. The underlined word “halt” in Paragraph 5 probably means “_________”.
A. look into something
B. get something to stop
C. make something work again
D. draw people’s attention to something
64. In which of the following movies was the cock destroyed?
A. The Thirty-Nine Steps and Shanghai Knights
B. Shanghai Knights and Doctor Who
C. The Great Mouse Detective and Doctor Who
D. Mars Attacks and Doctor Who
65. In which section of a newspaper would the passage be found?
A. Entertainment & Sports
B. Business & Economy
C. Sightseeing & Tourism
D. Culture & Arts
C
One day, Wilson was walking quietly along the road when someone hit him hard on the back of his neck. He looked behind him, and saw a young man whom he had never seen before.

Wilson said he would not be. The young man had insulted him and should be properly punished.
“Well, then,” said the judge to the young man, “I order you to pay ten coins to Wilson.”
Ten coins was very little for such a crime, but the young man did not have it with him, so the judge allowed him to go and get it.
Wilson waited for him to return with the money. He waited an hour, and then two hours, while the judge took care of other business.
When it was nearly time for the court to close, Wilson chose a moment when the judge was especially busy, came up quietly and hit him hard on the back of the neck. Then he said to him, “I am sorry, but I can’t wait any longer. When the young man comes back, tell him that I have passed my right to the ten coins on to you.”

We Have Different Ideas!
This may be the most important choice—the turning point in my life. Never before have I been so serious. For me, a Senior Three student, which university to choose is really a hard question, especially when I hold a completely different opinion from my parents.
I’m longing for Wuhan University for its long history, beautiful campus and academic atmosphere. Besides, it’s a good chance to experience a different culture.
But to my great surprise, when my parents heard this, they are strongly against my idea. Moreover, I was shocked to find mum crying! She asked in tears, “Why don’t you stay in Guangzhou? So young a girl, how can you take good care of yourself? Wuhan, oh! It’s too far away. What if I want to see you or you want to see me?” My father also asked me a serious question, “Are you sure you can fin d a good job in Guangzhou after graduation?”
Actually, I’ve thought about all these. As an independent and active girl, I certainly can handle all the problems. I insist on my choice, but I really value my parents’ agreement.

Respecting Parents Program
Showing respect to parents is one of the Chinese traditional moral values. However, as most students today are “the only child” in their family, they often regard themselves as the “centre” of the family without caring much about their parents. To improve this situation, our school has started a program, which is called “Respecting Parents Program”. Ten “do’s” have been worked out for the students to follow. For example, we are expected to remember our parents’ birthdays and express our good wishes to them and greet them when we see them returning home.
The program has been winning praises from parents and society. People say that is what we should have done earlier.。
