There was no one around, so I thought it was best to pick it up.Being French myself, I knew the kid was very ne rvous after he didn’t find his ID card.Have you ever lost anything, such as an important book, a driver’s license or a passport? Maybe you had the same feeling as the kid.As soon as we got back to our hotel, I searched for the cardholder’s name (which thankfully was not very common) on the Internet. I then followed a few links until I found his dad, and sent him a direct message along with a photo of the ID card.He wrote back to me in an hour, very appreciative. It was really fun playing Sherlock Holmes! “The kid’s mom will be picking up the ID card from the hotel’s front desk tomorrow.”I was very happy to see that.( ) 34.The writer was _______ when she found a National ID card of a French kid on the path.A. talking with her friendB. visiting the websiteC. writing a letterD. taking a hike( ) 35.How do you feel when you lose a passport?A.

He said that British scientist Isaac Newton had unweaved(拆解) the rainbow. Newton explained how light forms a rainbow. For Keats, this explanation meant rainbows could no longer be beautiful. This is just one example of many. We often hear people talk of problems withscience, or say that it is boring. Some people, like Keats, also say that science takes away the beauty of the world. But is this fair?First of all, science helps us get things done. We need to study science to produce certain kinds of people. After all, where would we be without engineers and doctors? When you are studying science in school, remember that one day you might be using that knowledge to build a bridge, or save a life. Next time you use your phone to send a message, remember that this is possible thanks to science. When Keats criticized(批判) Newton, the very paper he wrote on was created through science.Beyond helping society and getting things done, science also makes us think in a certain way. It asks us to believe things only through evidence. It teaches us never to trust our assumptions(假设). It teaches us that sometimes, the truth is stranger than fiction.When you study science, remember what it means. Science has changed the world, and it can change you too. Humans once looked up at rainbows, and said that they were beautiful. Science explained them, and they were no longer recondite to us.But discovery never stops. Through science, we can find new rainbows: mysteries that lie beyond the stars themselves.( ) 38. Why did John Keats criticize Newton around 200 years ago?A. Because he was angry that Newton didn’t like rainbows.B. Because he didn’t believe what Newton said about rainbows.C. Because he thought Newton’s explanation took away the beauty of rainbow.D. Because he thought rainbows would disappear because of Newton’s explanation. ( ) 39. Which of the following is the way science makes us think?A. Believing things only through evidence.B. Believing what we see with our eyes.C. Believing what is said in books.D. Believing things are beautiful.( ) 40. The underlined word “recondite” in Paragraph 4 means “_______”.A. secretB. famousC. beautifulD. powerful( ) 41. The best title for the passage can be _______.A. How Can We Get the Truth?B. The History of Natural ScienceC. Why Should We Study Science?D. The Things We Need to Do for ScienceDSome people have to use public transport, some dislike it and still some love it. If everyone has a car and drives anywhere they want to go, there will be serious traffic problems on the road. Luckily, trains are a good form of public transport.British people use trains a lot. This is especially so for people who are travelling from London to Paris. Every day about 20 trains leave London. They travel at a very high speed and people feel glad that the trains take only 2 hours and 30 minutes to reach Paris. It's much faster to travel by train than by bus or by car. This is because people have to drive cars or buses very carefully and lowly for many reasons, such as speed limits and traffic jams. However, when you are travelling by train, the speed is almost the same and there is no traffic jam for a train.Besides, Londoners think taking a train is one of the safest ways of travelling on the ground. Trains take quite a number of quality tests while they are made. More importantly, they have to take many safety checks before they are used on the rail track.What's more, trains in Britain are comfortable and provide fine services for their users. When you are on a London train, you will find that the train has comfortable tables and seats where people can sit. They also provide food services and power plugs(电源插头) for personal computers or mobile phone.( ) 42. In a traffic jams on the road, ________.A. drivers can drive fastB. drivers can drive carelesslyC. cars are not moving fastD. cars will stop working( ) 43. The 3rd paragraph of the passage mainly talks about the ________ of trains.A. speedB. safetyC. servicesD. problems( ) 44. Londoners often travel by train because trains are ________.A. old and slowB. large, clean and powerfulC. fine and importantD. fast, safe and comfortable( ) 45. What can we know from the passage?A. We can travel from London to Paris in less than 2hours.B. We can do our work with personal computers on the train.C. We have to wait till we get off the train in order to have some food.D. The trains are only checked for quality reasons before they are used.第Ⅱ卷（非选择题，共60分）四、词汇运用 (共l0小题；每小题l分，满分l0分)A．根据句意和汉语提示，在空白处填入一个适当的单词。
