It worked quite well for a few years, but it got so old, and it was costing him _37 much in repairs, that he decided that he had better 38 it.He asked among his friends to see if anyone was 39 to buy a cheap car, but they all knew that it was falling to pieces, so40 of them had any desire to buy it.Dave’s friend Sam saw that he was 41 when they met one evening, and said, “What’s 42 ,Dave?” Dave told him, and Sam answered, “Well, what about advertising(登广告) it in the paper?

Before our music programme at four, I’m going to repeat some of our hospital rules.The hospital can sleep 800 patients. There’re 8 beds in each ward(病房). The visiting hours are in the afternoon from 2:30 to 3:30 and in the evening from 7:00 to 8:00. But remember only two people can see you at the same time. Sorry about that, but you can see what would happen if we didn’t have these rules.The other rules are about our hours. We start quite early---you might not be used to that. We wake you at 6 o’clock, and breakfast is at 8 o’clock, lunch is at noon.There’s tea at 3:30 and supper is at 6 o’clock.You can see the non-smoking sign –-- we don’t allow smoking in the wards. I’m sure you understand why. However, if you do need to smoke, there are some smoking rooms where It is allowed.You will find the radio switch(开关)on the wall near your bed, with your own headphones, if you want to listen.

A music programme.BA beautiful and very successful actress (女演员) was the star for a new musical show. Her home was in the countryside, but she did not want to go back there every night, so she bought an expensive house in the centre of the city, got some beautiful furniture (家具) and got a man to paint the rooms in new colours.It was very difficult to get tickets for her show, because everybody wanted to see it. So she decided to give the painter two of the best seats. She hoped that this would make him work better for her. He took the tickets without saying anything, and she heard no more about them until the end of the month, when she got the painter’s bill (账单). At the bottom of it were these words: “ Four hours watching Miss Hall sing and dance: 3 pounds,” with this note: “After 5 p.m., I get 15 shillings (先令) an hour instead of 10 shillings.”60. The actress bought a house in the centre of the city because ______.A. she liked to live in the busiest placeB. she didn’t like to live in the countryC. her home was far away from where she workedD. she didn’t want to go back to her hometown any longer61.

What kind of man was the painter?A. He was a careful man.B. He was a poor man.C. He was not friendly to others.D. He knew little about music and dances.CIsn't it astonishing how much time we spend talking about food? “Have you ever eaten …?” “What did you have for lunch?” and so on. And yet when you travel from one country to another, you will find that people have quite different feelings about food. People often feel that what they eat is normal (正常) and that what other people eat is strange or silly. In most parts of Asia, for example, no meal is complete without rice. In England, people eat potatoes every day. In the Middle East, bread is the main part of every meal. Eating like so many things we do, becomes a habit which is difficult to change. Americans like to drink a lot of orange juice and coffee. The English drink tea four or five times every day. Australians drink a great deal of beer, and the French drink wine every day.The sort of meat people like to eat also differs from one country to another. Horse meat is thought to be delicious in France. In Hong Kong, some people enjoy eating snakes. New Zealanders eat sheep, but they never eat goat meat. The Japanese don't like to eat sheep meat because of its smell, but they enjoy eating raw fish (生鱼).So it seems that although eating is a topic we can talk about for hours, there is very little common sense in what we say it. People everywhere enjoy eating what they have always eaten, and there is very little we can do to change our eating habits.64. Which of the following is true according to the article?A. All people have the same feeling about food.B. In most parts of Asia, people usually have rice for meals.C. People often consider other people to be strange or silly.D. The topic people spend time talking about is bread and meat.65. People in different countries ___.A. drink the same sort of wineB. have the same eating habitC. eat different kinds of meatD. have the same tea at different time within a day66. The Japanese don't like to eat sheep meat __.A. because they dislike its smellB. because it is too expensiveC. because it is easy to go badD. because they think it will do harm to their health67. English people drink tea four or five times a day _.A. because they get thirsty easilyB. because there is plenty of tea in BritainC. because of their drinking habitD. because they have enough time to do soDThe fact that blind people can seethings using other parts of their bodies apart from their eyes may help us tounderstand our feelings about color.If they can sense color differences,then perhaps we, too,are affected (影响) by color without knowing it.Salesmen have discovered by experienceover a long period of time that sugar sells badly in green wrappings (包装),that bluefoods are considered not agreeable to the taste,and that cosmetics (化妆品) should never be packed in brown.These discoveries have grown into a whole subject of color psychology (心理学).Some of our preferences (偏爱) are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore connected with calm, while yellow is a day color connected with energy and encouragement. Experiments have shown that colors, partly because they are connected with psychology, also have a direct effect on people’s mind. People in bright red surroundings (环境) show an increase in breathing speed, heartbeat and blood pressure. Red is exciting. Pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming color. Being exciting, red was chosen as the signal for danger, but a closer study shows that a bright yellow can produce a more basic state of alarm, so fire engines in some advanced areas are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop buses, trucks and cars.65. The passage tells us that salesmen have _______.A. found out that colors affect salesB. discovered the relationship between color and psychologyC. tried colors on blind peopleD. developed a special subject of color psychology66. If people are exposed to (置身于) pure blue, _______.A. their body pressure risesB. they won’t e asily feel nervousC. they want to taste blue foodsD. they will feel like buying things67. The most effective color in the passage for warning people is _____.A. redB. bright yellowC. dark blueD. green68. Which of the following do you think is the best title of the passage?A. Color and FeelingsB. Colors and SalesC. The Blind and ColorsD. Preferences for ColorsEAntarctica, with its seemingly endless icy beauty, is one place where one look is worth a thousand words. My own dream to see it came true last January when I joined the sixth explorationcrew(考查队) of the China National Marine Bureau. We spent 10 days connecting flights to reach ourgoal, but finally arrived at the Great Wall Station on Antarctica on the eve of Chinese New Year.There are only two seasons in Antarctica: winter and summer. You get polar nights in winter and polar days in summer. Day is longer than night in summer, and the temperature often reaches below zero. Luckily, there are no snowstorms in summer, which makes it the best season to travel. What I imagined before starting for Antarctica was a world of ice, storms, endless cold and loneliness. When I stopped on Antarctica for the first time, however, I saw rich, energetic and beautiful scenery that was beyond anything I had imagined.We only spent 11 days at the South Pole, but every minute was spent taking pictures and losing our heart to the wonderland. Beauty enveloped us as we watched the world around us. The mountains, oceans, ice, snow, sky, earth and people all seemed to have their own stories.Rocks from Antarctica are considered valuable. Unfortunately, I didn’t bring one back. However, my heavy bags full of films are certainly worth that. It is in these pictures that the true Antarctica comes alive.72. What is the best title for this passage?A. Antarctica, my dream world.B. Beautiful Antarctica.C. What I’ve got in Antarctica.D. My visit to Antarctica.73. Why is summer the best season to go to Antarctica?A.There are no snowstorms in summer.B. Night is longer than day in summer.C. The temperature often reaches below zero in summer.D.
