Carriages, horses, and bikes rushed in every direction (方向), and then they were80 by the newest toy of the rich people, the “automobiles (汽车).” In those days, crossing a street used to be a real challenge for people walking.

However, at the time, red 84 traffic in all directions had to stop, yellow stopped only east-west traffic, and green stopped only north-south traffic. This was very confusing, so in 1924 the city adopted (采用) the system used in railroads: red for stop, green for go, and yellow forslow. This system became standard all over the world.The first automatic traffic lights came into use in Wolverhampton, England, in 1927.

So he 80 his partner whether to give up the cotton or take the gold. But his partner held a different view that since he had carried the cotton for such a long way, he would not change it with gold orall his previous effort would turn out to be wasted. 81 , he was wondering whether the gold was real or not. Therefore, he still carried the cotton while the other woodsman threw it away and carried the gold 82 .When they just went down to the foot of the mountain, it began to rain all of a sudden. Both of them were wet from head to toes. More 83 , the woodsman who carried the cotton found that his cotton had absorbed (吸收) tons of water and became so 84 that he could no longer go on carrying it. As a result, he had to give up the cotton and went back home empty-handed, but his partner brought home some gold happily.This story tells us that we should use our 85 to make the right choice in face of every key point in our life.

You can set your own timetable, and wear jeans to work. You never have to 80 a boss, and you make all decisions yourself. You can even raise your salary any time you want.But the reality is different. “Having your o wn business can be 81 ,” says David Paik. After working for an advertising agency for six years, he started a website design business at home. His income in the first two months was $0. 82 , he got a big project creating a website for a magazine. Then he had a new problem: his timetable. “I was working twelve hours a day, seven days a week, because I didn’t have employees to help me.” Today, Paik Web Design is successful, but David says, “I really wasn’t prepared to be a business owner. I didn’t 83 the difficulty.”With no boss, it’s easy to take too much time off—and get too little work done. With no workmates, you might feel bored or 84 . You have to pay for your own holidays. If you make a bad business decision, you could lose all the money. For all of these reasons, more than half of all new businesses fail within one year.Another problem is balancing work with personal life. As a business owner, you can’t just stop at 5 p.m. and forget about your work until tomorrow. “Even when I’m watching TV in the evening, I’m always thi nking about my 85 and projects,” says David Paik.Still, hundreds of people around the world start businesses every day, and most enjoy the experience. “There are lots of advantages to having your own business,” says Denise Williams, the owner of a women’s clothing store. “You can decide exactly how to do your work, how much money you want to make, and who will work for you.”80. A) talk about B) listen to C) hear from D) look after81. A) hard B) expensive C) foolish D) strange82. A) As a result B) In addition C) For example D) At last83. A) memorize B) realize C) have D) solve84. A) angry B) funny C) lonely D) sorry85. A) lessons B) holidays C) customers D) friends80. B 81. A 82. D 83. B 84. C 85. C松江区初三英语第一学期期末质量抽查试卷The old man walked slowly into the restaurant. His poor jacket, patched (打补丁的) trousers, and worn-out shoes made him stand out from the usual Saturday morning breakfast crowd. Unforgettable were his pale blue eyes that sparkled (闪耀) like diamonds, large rosy cheeks, and thin lips held in a steady smile.With the help of his walking-stick, he walked toward a 80 by the window. A young waitress named Mary watched him and ran over to him, and said, “Here, sir. Let me give you a81 with that chair.”Without saying a word, he smiled and nodded a thank-you. She pulled the chair away from the table. Steadying him with one arm, she helped him move in front of the chair, and get82 seated. and leaned (斜靠)his walking-stick against the table. In a soft, clear voice he said, “Thank you, Miss.” “You’re welcome, sir.” she replied. “My name is Mary. I’ll be back in a moment. If you need 83 , just wave at me!”After he had finished a hearty meal, Mary brought him the change from his ticket, helping him up from his chair and out from behind the table. She 84 him his walking-stick, and walked with him to the door. Holding the door open for him, she said, “Come back and see us, sir!” He said softly with a smile, “You are very kind!”When Mary went to clean his table, she was shocked. Under his plate she found a business card and a note. Under the note was a $100 bill! The note read…“dear Mary, I respect you very much, and you respect yourself too. It shows by the way you treat others. You have found the secret of 85 . Your kind gestures will shine through those who meet you.”The man she had waited on was the owner of the restaurant.

B徐汇区初三英语第一学期期末质量抽查试卷Like underground systems all around the world, there are two main rules on the London Underground: Please mind the gap and please give up your seat to a person carrying a child or heavy luggage.But London’s 150-year-old underground system is a little bit different 80 there are also another two rules: Never look at others and d on’t get too close to the other passengers. If you do any of these things, you will break 81 , and the whole carriage(车厢) will look at in an unfriendly way.On the London Underground, people do not talk to one another, nor look at one another. If they have to look at each other, they will 82 faster than you can say duibuqi. Passengersusually keep some distance away from the others. In crowded carriages people will standnear the door at station stops, so the carriage looks full when actually there is plenty of83 . There is no pushing yourself in as Beijing subway passengers do.The biggest problem comes with getting a seat, and some people in England even explain how to get a seat on the Internet. If you are lucky enough to find yourself sitting in one of the few seats 84 wants, you will catch the attention of the whole carriage, so you can’t win.Sometimes the train driver will make a joke over the loud speaker, saying something like, “How is everyone getting on in there?” A few p eople will smile and realize that how strange the Underground environment is. 85 , it will be back to the basic rules as soon as this moment passes,: No eye contact, no touching, no getting into personal space and no standing on the left.80.

As we were going out the door, a young teenage boy was coming in.This young man had no hair on the sides of his head and some blue hair on top of it. One of his nostrils was pierced (穿孔), and his ears were full of rings. He held a skateboard under one arm and a basketball under 80 . Caitlynd, who was walking ahead of me, stopped when she saw the teen.I thought he'd scared her and she'd frozen on the spot. I was wrong. My Grand Angel backed up against the door and opened it as 81 as it would go. Now I was face to face with the young man. I stepped aside and let him pass. His response was a kind "Thank you very much".On our way to the car, I praised Caitlynd for her 82 in holding open the door for the young man. She didn't seem to be 83 by his appearance but I wanted to make sure. If a grandmotherly talk about freedom of self-expression and allowing people their differences was in order, I wanted to be ready.It 84 that the person who needed the talk was me. The only thing Caitlynd noticed about the teen, was the fact that his arms were full. "H e would’ve had a hard time to open the door." I saw the partially shaved head, the blue hair, the piercings and the earrings. She saw a person carrying something under each arm and heading toward a door. I’m always the one who is so quick to judge. In the future, I hope to get down on her 85 and raise my sights.80. A) other B) the other C) another D) one81. A) far B) fast C) wide D) soon82.

Carriages, horses, and bikes rushed in every direction (方向), and then they were80 by the newest toy of the rich people, the “automobiles (汽车).” In those days, crossing a street used to be a real challenge for people walking. There were no 81 for drivers. The New York Police Department had to create a special group of policemen to control traffic. Police officers stood at crossroads and tried to direct the traffic, but very often they were run over by vehicles (车辆). By 1912, New York City had 38,000 motor vehicles. 82 had to be done about all the traffic on the streets!In 1916, the first traffic tower was 83 in New York, at the crossroads of Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street. A traffic officer controlled three 500-watt lamps. They were 40 centimeters in diameter, and they were red, yellow, and green. However, at the time, red 84 traffic in all directions had to stop, yellow stopped only east-west traffic, and green stopped only north-south traffic. This was very confusing, so in 1924 the city adopted (采用) the system used in railroads: red for stop, green for go, and yellow forslow. This system became standard all over the world.The first automatic traffic lights came into use in Wolverhampton, England, in 1927. Today computers control traffic lights, and road conditions are much better than they used to be. The only85 is when there is a power cut. The result is often confusion on the streets because the traffic lights don’t work.80. A) joined B) seen C) played D) built81. A) roads B) rules C) jobs D) seats82.

At most modern zoos people can see, smell and hear animals in their natural way. Some zoos even have “friendship farms" where people can touch some of the animals. Here are four 51 why people need zoos.Firstly, zoos help people know more about animals and their 52 . They give interesting information about each animal, 53 where it comes from and how it lives. Special teachers at the zoo help children understand more about the animals. Trained guides show visitors around the zoo Secondly, zoos are working hard to find out more about animals. New knowledge leads to improved ways of looking after animals in the zoo and 54 understanding of the same animals in the wild.Thirdly, zoos play a part in protecting animals and stopping them from 55 . Zoos work together with each other to help the animals in danger. For example, gorillas (大猩猩) from Taronga Zoo were sent to live with gorillas at the Melbourne Zoo in the hope that they would give birth to babies 56 gorillas can be kept in this way.Finally, zoos are important for people's enjoyment. People enjoy getting close to animals 57 having to cross the plains (平原) of Africa or climb the mountains of China. In the past, animal shows were common in zoos. Visitors were excited by monkeys in human clothes, and they even took rides on elephants or horses. However, today people prefer to see animals in a more natural way.So a modern zoo is a place where animals are well taken care of.IV.

(12分)More than forty years ago, a group of artists gathered to develop a television program. They planned to make a television show that would teach young children about subjects like reading and math in a fun way.Sesame Street was first shown on TV on November 10th, 1969. It was produced by a group called The Children’s Television Workshop, and today it was called The Sesame Workshop. The show combines animation (动画), music, large puppets (布偶) and human actors to create funny and creative lessons. Some of the most famous characters on the show are Big Bird, Cookie Monster, Oscar the Grouch, and Bert and Emie. Puppet maker Jim Henson created these lovely characters.Research is an important part of what made Sesame Street special. The show’s creators studied children very carefully to understand how to best keep them having fun and learning. When the show was first introduced to children, some of its creators were not sure whether it would last one season. But forty years later, Sesame Street is the longest running children’s television program in the United States.As part of its fortieth anniversary (周年纪念日), Sesame Street had a special guest on its show. First Lady Michelle Obama showed a group of children and Big Bird how to plant. She explained that the seeds would grow into vegetables, which are healthy and good to eat. She also had a message to the parents who watch the show with their children. She said parents can help their children do things to have healthy lives, like getting enough exercise.74.

(共12 分)Like underground systems all around the world, there are two main rules on the London Underground: Please mind the gap and please give up your seat to a person carrying a child or heavy luggage.But London’s 150-year-old transport system is a little bit different 80 there are also anot her two rules: Never look at others and don’t get too close to the other passengers. If you do any of these things you will break 81 , and the whole carriage (车厢) will look at you in an unfriendly way.On the London Underground, people do not talk to one another, nor look at one another. If they have to look at each other, they will 82 faster than you can say duibuqi. Passengers usually keep some distance away from the others. In crowded carriages people will stand near the door at station stops, so the carriage looks full when actually there is plenty of 83 . There is no pushing yourself in as Beijing subway passengers do.The biggest problem comes with getting a seat, and some people in England even explain how to get a seat on the Internet. If you are lucky enough to find yourself sitting in one of the few seats 84 wants, you will catch the attention of the whole carriage, so you can’t win.Sometimes the train driver will make a joke over the loud speaker, saying something like, “How is everyone getting on in there?” A few people will smile and realize that how strange the Underground environment is. 85 , it will be back to the basic rules as soon as this moment passes: No eye contact, no touching, no getting into personal space and no standing on the left.80.

They say that because of the Internet and other new technology, there is no need for school buildings, classes or t 86 . Perhaps this will be true one day, but if the world has no schools, I couldn’t imagine how our society would be.In fact, we should learn how to use new technology to make schools b 87 . We should invent a new kind of school that is l88 to libraries, museums, science centers, labs and even companies. Companies should create learning programs for schools. Scientists could give talkst 89 the Internet. TV networks and local TV stations could develop programs about the students who are studying at school. Labs could set up websites to show new technology so that students could see it on the Internet.Is this a d 90 ? No. This is beginning to happen in many cities. In those cities, learning can take place at home, at school, and in the office. Businesses provide programs for the schools and society. Schools provide computer labs for people without their own computers at home. Everyone can visit faraway libraries and museums as easily as n 91 ones and everyone can go on the Internet, and older people use it as much as younger ones. How will this new kind of school c 92 the usual way of learning? It is too early to be sure, but it is very exciting to think about it.D. Answer the questions.

Unfortunately, his teachers said there weren’t any birds or squirrels (松鼠) to spread the seeds. It would be a waste of his life to try to do it. Everyone knew that, he was told. Even if he was know ledgeable as he had expected, nobody accepted his idea.Paul later got married and had some kids. But he didn’t give up. And then one night he did what he could w ith what he had. Under the cover of darkness, he went secretly into the wasteland and started planting.And every week, he made his secret journey into the wasteland and planted trees and grass. Slowly rabbits appeared. Later, as there was pressure(压力) to c lean up the environment, the company actually invited Paul to do what he was already doing. Now the place is fourteen thousand acres of trees and grass, and Paul has received almost every environmental award Utah has. It took him until his hair turned grey, but he managed to keep that impossible promise he made to himself as a child.93. What did the copper smelter do to Paul’s hometown?94.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Marlon Brando is widely considered the greatest movie actor of all time. He was born in Omaha Nebraska in 1924. He was named after hisfather, a salesman. His mother, Dorothy, was an actress in the local theater.Marlon Brando moved to New York City when he was 19 years old in 1943. He took acting classes at the New School for Social Research. One of his teachers was Stella Adler, who taught the "Method" style of realistic acting. The Method teaches actors how to use their own memories and emotions to identify with the characters they are playing.Marlon Brando learned the Method style quickly and easily. Critics said he was probably the greatest Method actor ever. One famous actress commented on his natural ability for it. She said teaching Marlon Brando the Method was like sending a tiger to jungle school.Marlon Brando appeared in several plays. He got his first major part in a Broadway play in 1947, at the age of 23. He received great praise for his powerful performance at Stanley Kowalski in Tennessee Williams' play, A Streetcar Named Desire. His fame grew when he acted the same part in the movie version, released in 1951.Marlon Brando won the Best Actor Oscar for The God Father, but he rejected it. He sent a woman named Sasheen Littlefeather to speak for him at the Academy Awards ceremony. She said that Brando could not accept the award because of the way the American film industry treated Native Americans. The people at the Academy Awards ceremony did not like the speech. But some experts think the action helped change the way American Indians were shown in movies.Marlon Brando acted in about forty movies. He was nominated for a total of eight Academy Awards. But he earned a "bad boy" reputation for his public outbursts and unusual behaviours. According to Los Angeles magazine, "Brando was rock and roll before anybody knew what rock and roll was". His later life was marked with family tragedies. His son Christian went to prison for killing his daughter Cheyene‘s boyfriend. Cheyene later committed suicide. Brando became lonely. He worked occasionally for the money. But, in his prime, Marlon Brando was an actor other actors could only hope to become.65. According to the passage, the "Method" ______.A. requires actors to use their imagination in actingB. made Marlon Brando a great and famous actorC. wasn't very difficult for Marlon BrandoD. can be most effectively learned in a jungle66. The speech at the Academy Awards ceremony ______ at the time.A. made Sasheen Littlefeather well-knownB. was well-received by Native AmericansC. changed people's attitude to American IndiansD. received both positive and negative responses67. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Marlon Brando‘s later life was troubled and unhappy.B. A Streetcar Named Desire was later adapted into a movie.C. Marlon Brando was the first rock star in USA.D. As an actor, Brando‘s talent was unparalleled.68. The purpose of this passage is to ______.A. inform us of Marlon Brando's attitude to civil rights movementB. introduce Marlon Brando as one of the greatest actorsC. help us understand Marlon Brando's secret to successD. instruct us how to become a great actor like Marlon Brando(B)what is called a "homestay"69. From the passage we can conclude that ―Learning English Video Project‖ is most probably________.A. an online language learning courseB. audio documents on language learningC. a series of short video programsD. a set of films on English-speaking countries70. If someone is interested in the comparison between English and other languages, he might beinterested to watch __________.A. Encounters in the UKB. Stories from MoroccoC. Thoughts from BrazilD. Insights from China71. What can we know about English learning in Sao Paulo, Brazil?A. Classroom teaching is more interactive and communicative.B. Homestay arrangement provides positive experience for learners.C. The Internet and games plays a major role in language learning.D. The principle of learning by doing is widely accepted by learners.(C)It is found that American students spend les s than 15% of their time in school. While there‘s no doubt that school is important, a number of recent studies reminds us that parents are even more so. A study published earlier this month by researchers at North Carolina State University, for example, finds that parental involvement — checking homework, attending school meetings and events, discussing school activities at home —has a more powerful influence on students‘ academic performance than anything about the school the students attend. Another study, published in the Review of Economics and Statistics, reports that the effort put forth by parents (reading stories aloud, meeting with teachers) has a bigger impact on their children‘s educational achievement than the effort devoted by either teachers or the students themselves. And a third study concludes that schools would have to increase their spending by more than $1,000 per pupil in order to achieve the same results that are gained with parental involvement.So parents matter. But it is also revea led in researches that parents, of all backgrounds, don‘t need to buy expensive educational toys or digital devices for their kids in order to give them an advantage. They don‘t need to drive their offspring to enrichment classes or test-preparation courses. What they need to do with their children is much simpler: talk.But not just any talk. Recent research has indicated exactly what kinds of talk at home encourage children‘s success at school. For example, a study conducted by researchers at the UCLA School of Public Health and published in the journal Pediatrics found that two-way adult-child conversations were six times as potent in promoting language development as the ones in which the adult did all the talking. Engaging in this reciprocal(双向的) back-and-forth gives children a chance to try out language for themselves, and also gives them the sense that their thoughts and opinions matter.The content of parents‘ conversations with kids matters, too. Children who hear talk about counting and numbers at home start school with much more extensive mathematical knowledge, report researchers from the University of Chicago. While the conversations parents have with their children change as kids grow older, the effect of these exchanges on academic achievement r emains strong. Research finds that parents play an important role in what is called ―academic socialization‖ —setting expectations and making connections between current behavior and future goals. Engaging in these sorts of conversations has a greater impact on educational accomplishment.72. Parents are even more important than schools in that ______.A. parental involvement makes up for what schools are not able to doB. teachers and students themselves do not put in enough effortC. parental involvement saves money for schools and the local governmentD. students may well make greater achievements with parents' attention73. It can be inferred from the 2nd paragraph that ______.A. educational toys are unaffordable nowadaysB. digital devices can give children an advantageC. some parents believe in enrichment classesD. talking with children is a very simple task74. The word "potent" is closest in meaning to ______.A. powerfulB. difficultC. necessaryD. resistant75. Which of the following will more encourage children's success at school according to thepassage?A. Parents order their children to stop playing video games.B. Parents discuss with their children the possible future career.C. Parents lecture their children on getting too low marks on tests.D. Parents introduce colleges around the US to their children.Section CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.Starting Your Own BusinessStart with an idea. This doesn't have to be a brand new invention or new product. In fact, many successful small businesses have found a way to deliver an existing service more efficiently or economically or have customized an existing product or service. Evaluate your competitors - how many competitors, how strong are they, where are they, how will you compete. State what is required to enter this market, barriers to entry such as high fixed costs (factories, restaurants) and government regulations that must be met.This doesn't mean build a big factory or a fancy office. It simply means keep accurate customer records, a clean set of updated books and a technology foundation, if necessary. One of the downfalls of many small businesses is that they don't know if they're making or losing money (i.e. the need for a clean set of books). Another downfall is when small business owners try to sell their company years later but lack accurate customer history and customer information.Once you know you can be profitable take the leap and get started. Besides getting business supplies or advertising, plan ahead by establishing some new business clients ahead of time. If your business is unlike a restaurant, that physically needs to wait for customers to walk into itsdoors, establish accounts ahead of time. In this way, you will have pre-planned future receivables to look forward to.Use every technology available that will give your business a competitive advantage. The internet is a customers‘ research tool. Help future customers learn more about you and the details about what you sell and why your products or services are different and better for them than other competitors.Carrying cash can be risky. Therefore, most people choose to carry Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover. All these credit cards are part of our everyday life when it comes to making purchases. Debit cards are especially popular. So, along with having a sales counter cash register, get set up to accept credit cards for your business. To do this, also purchase a new credit machine.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.If yo u need another reason to give thanks at the dinner table on Thanksgiving Day, how‘s this: people who maintain an ―attitude of gratitude‖ tend to be happier and healthier than those who don‘t, according to an instructive article this week in the Wall Street Journal.The WSJ‘s Melinda Beck reports that adults who feel grateful have ―more energy, more optimism, more social connections and more happiness than those who do not, according to studies conducted over the past decade. Now a new study conducted by researchers at Hofstra University — the results of which are set to be published in an upcoming issue of the Journal of Happiness Studies — finds similar benefits of gratitude for adolescents as well.Dr. Jeffrey J. Froh, assistant professor of psychology and lead researcher of the new study, surveyed 1,035 students aged from 14 to 19 and found that grateful students reported higher grades, more life satisfaction, better social integration and less envy and depression than their peers who were less thankful and more materialistic. Additionally, feelings of gratitude had a more powerful impact on the students‘ lives overall than materialism.What the majority of the research suggests is that gratitude should be chronic(长期的) in order to make a lasting difference in well-being. Dr. Robert Emmons, professor of psychology at the University of California, Davis, and a pioneer in gratitude research, told the WSJ that in order to reap(收获)all of its benefits, feeling gratitude must be rooted into your personality, and you must frequently acknowledge and be thankful for the role other people play in your happiness:―The key is not to leave it on the Thanksgiving table,‖ he said.For older children and adults, one simple way to cultivate gratitude is to literally count your blessings. Keep a journal and regularly record whatever you are grateful for that day. Be specific. Listing ―my friends, my school, my dog‖ day after day means that ―gratitude tiredness‖ has set in, Dr. Froh says. Writing ―my dog licked my face when I was sad‖ keeps it fresher. The real benefit comes in changing how you experience the world. Look for things to be grateful for, and you‘ll start seeing them.Studies show that using negative, insulting words — even as you talk to yourself — can darken your mood, as well. Fill your head with positive thoughts, express thanks and encouragement aloud and look for something to be grateful for, not criticize, in those around you, especially loved ones.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)81. According to the article in the Wall Street Journal, people who don‘t maintain an ―attitude of gratitude‖ tend to be ______________.82. What are the major findings of the new study at Hofstra University about?83. Acco rding to the passage, how can people probably avoid ―gratitude tiredness‖?84. In order not to darken our moods, we‘d better stop ________________.第II卷(共45分)I .

At most modern zoos people can see, smell and hear animals in their natural way. Some zoos even have “friendship farms" where people can touch some of the animals. Here are four 51 why people need zoos.Firstly, zoos help people know more about animals and their 52 . They give interesting information about each animal, 53 where it comes from and how it lives. Special teachers at the zoo help children understand more about the animals. Trained guides show visitors around the zoo Secondly, zoos are working hard to find out more about animals. New knowledge leads to improved ways of looking after animals in the zoo and 54 understanding of the same animals in the wild.Thirdly, zoos play a part in protecting animals and stopping them from 55 . Zoos work together with each other to help the animals in danger. For example, gorillas (大猩猩) from Taronga Zoo were sent to live with gorillas at the Melbourne Zoo in the hope that they would give birth to babies 56 gorillas can be kept in this way.Finally, zoos are important for people's enjoyment. People enjoy getting close to animals 57 having to cross the plains (平原) of Africa or climb the mountains of China. In the past, animal shows were common in zoos. Visitors were excited by monkeys in human clothes, and they even took rides on elephants or horses. However, today people prefer to see animals in a more natural way.So a modern zoo is a place where animals are well taken care of.IV.

(共12 分)Like underground systems all around the world, there are two main rules on the London Underground: Please mind the gap and please give up your seat to a person carrying a child or heavy luggage.But London’s 150-year-old transport system is a little bit different 80 there are also anot her two rules: Never look at others and don’t get too close to the other passengers. If you do any of these things you will break 81 , and the whole carriage (车厢) will look at you in an unfriendly way.On the London Underground, people do not talk to one another, nor look at one another. If they have to look at each other, they will 82 faster than you can say duibuqi. Passengers usually keep some distance away from the others. In crowded carriages people will stand near the door at station stops, so the carriage looks full when actually there is plenty of 83 . There is no pushing yourself in as Beijing subway passengers do.The biggest problem comes with getting a seat, and some people in England even explain how to get a seat on the Internet. If you are lucky enough to find yourself sitting in one of the few seats 84 wants, you will catch the attention of the whole carriage, so you can’t win.Sometimes the train driver will make a joke over the loud speaker, saying something like, “How is everyone getting on in there?” A few people will smile and realize that how strange the Underground environment is. 85 , it will be back to the basic rules as soon as this moment passes: No eye contact, no touching, no getting into personal space and no standing on the left.80.

They say that because of the Internet and other new technology, there is no need for school buildings, classes or t 86 . Perhaps this will be true one day, but if the world has no schools, I couldn’t imagine how our society would be.In fact, we should learn how to use new technology to make schools b 87 . We should invent a new kind of school that is l88 to libraries, museums, science centers, labs and even companies. Companies should create learning programs for schools. Scientists could give talkst 89 the Internet. TV networks and local TV stations could develop programs about the students who are studying at school. Labs could set up websites to show new technology so that students could see it on the Internet.Is this a d 90 ? No. This is beginning to happen in many cities. In those cities, learning can take place at home, at school, and in the office. Businesses provide programs for the schools and society. Schools provide computer labs for people without their own computers at home. Everyone can visit faraway libraries and museums as easily as n 91 ones and everyone can go on the Internet, and older people use it as much as younger ones. How will this new kind of school c 92 the usual way of learning? It is too early to be sure, but it is very exciting to think about it.D. Answer the questions. (12分)When Paul was a boy growing up in Utah,he happened to live near a copper smelter (炼铜厂), and the chemicals coming out of the smelter made a beautiful forest become a wasteland. One day a young visitor looked at this wasteland and c alled it an awful area. Paul got so angry when he heard these word. From then on, something happened inside him.Years later Paul was back to the hometown and he went to the smelter office. He asked if they had any plans or if they would let him try to bring the trees back. The answer fromthat big industry was “No”.Paul then went to college to study the science of plants. Unfortunately, his teachers said there weren’t any birds or squirrels (松鼠) to spread the seeds. It would be a waste of his life to try to do it. Everyone knew that, he was told. Even if he was know ledgeable as he had expected, nobody accepted his idea.Paul later got married and had some kids. But he didn’t give up. And then one night he did what he could w ith what he had. Under the cover of darkness, he went secretly into the wasteland and started planting.And every week, he made his secret journey into the wasteland and planted trees and grass. Slowly rabbits appeared. Later, as there was pressure(压力) to c lean up the environment, the company actually invited Paul to do what he was already doing. Now the place is fourteen thousand acres of trees and grass, and Paul has received almost every environmental award Utah has. It took him until his hair turned grey, but he managed to keep that impossible promise he made to himself as a child.93. What did the copper smelter do to Paul’s hometown?94.
