Reading ComprehensionA. Choose the best answerIn the 1850s, a vast wilderness（荒野）separated California from the eastern U. S. As a result, mail service to California was very slow.William Russell decided to change that. He and two partners selected a route from St. Joseph, Missouri（密苏里）, to Sacramento, California. Then they purchased 400 horses, hired workers and set up relay stations（中继站）every 10 to 15 miles. Riders would change horses at these stations, and every 90 to 120 miles a new rider would take over.On April 3, 1860, their service, called the Pony Express, began. The mail deliveries reached California in about 10 days. The riders faced many risks（风险）from extreme weather, hostile（敌对）Native Americans and riding accidents. But they lost only one delivery during the service’s one and a half years’ in operation.The Pony Express service ended in October 1861 after a telegraph line across the U. S. was completed. Yet the riders’ courage and accomplishments（成就）still hold a place in legend.Today, you can visit an original Pony Express station. Called the Hollenberg Station, it is located near Hanover, Kanas（堪萨斯州）. The station was originally a five-room building in which Gerat Hollenberg and his wife sold supplies and provided meals for people who were travelling to California and Oregon. The couple also rented out rooms and repaired wagons（货车）for weary travelers. While the Pony Express was in operation, riders changed horses at the station and obtained both food and shelter there.The station is now a historic landmark. For a few dollars, you can tour the site. In a nearby visitor center, there is also a small gift shop and a theater where you can see films about the station.69. William Russell and his partners started the new service to _______.A. hire some workers to raise the horses they had purchasedB. challenge the risks like extreme weather and riding accidentsC. make their mail delivery famous and expand it to other countries.D. speed up the mail service so that it could become much faster70. The Pony Express, managed by Russell and his partners, _______.A. lasted for nearly 1.5 yearsB. never lost any deliveryC. set up relay stations every 15 milesD. began in October, 186171. What the riders did was _______. Which of the following adjectives is not so appropriate（合适的）to complete the sentence?A. dangerousB. usefulC. unforgettableD. exciting72. Gerat Hollenberg and his wife would _______.A. sell supplies to the touristsB. repair wagons for tired travelersC. rent out rooms if travelers neededD. do all of the above73. Since the 1860s , the Hollenberg Station has become_______.A. a center of researchB. a tourist attractionC. a set for moviesD. a social club74. The best title of the passage should be _______.A. Mail service to CaliforniaB. The Pony ExpressC. Horese at the Pony Express stationsD. The business run by HollenbergB. Choose the words or expressions to complete the passageA team of students who were successful in their work got together to visit their old teacher after graduating from college may years later. The talk soon turned into complaints about __75__ in work and life.Before offering his students coffee, the teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and different kinds of cups - plastic, glass, porcelain（陶瓷）, crystal, some common and cheap, some beautiful and __76__ - telling them to help themselves to the coffee.After all the guests had a cup of coffee in hand, the teacher said: “If you noticed, all the nice -looking expensive cups were taken, leaving behind the common and cheap ones. While it is __77__ for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is where your problems and stress come from. We all know that the cup itself __78__ no quality to the coffee. In most case, it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup,but you all went for the best cups. And then you began looking at each other’s cups.”Now consider this: Life is the coffee: the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold life, and the type of cup we have does not decide, __79__ change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by only paying attention to the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us. God makes the coffee, not the cups. Enjoy your coffee!“The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just_______ the best of everything.” Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.75. A. stress B. difficulty C. sadness D. loss76. A. excellent B. bright C. expensive D. comfortable77. A. careful B. natural C. polite D. formal78. A. increases B. affords C. adds D. provides79. A. also B. if C. for D. nor80. A. have B. use C. make D. putC.

Just send Gates’ email message to everyone you know, and you can get your prize money. Does this sound too good to be true? This offer from Gates is a hoax(骗局). In fact, anyone with common knowledge in computers could tell whether it is true. But that hasn’t stopped the hoax from spreading across the Internet like wildlife. Millions of Internet users have sent this untrue message.The Internet is full of hoaxes, lies and wrong information. They are passed through e-mails, discussion groups and official-looking websites. Although most of them have been made known to the public what they are, it’s still hard to kill a “good hoax”. Most Internet hoaxes are similar. They often meet the needs of basic human feelings, like fear, greed or pity for others. Most importantly, they often sound as if they could be possible.If you’ve ever been fooled by a hoax, you are certainly not alone. Several famous newspapers have reported information they got online, only to later learn it was only a hoax. Even public official can something be fooled. The city officials in California learned from a website that Styrofoam(塑料泡沫) cups are made with a dangerous chemical, so they ordered that the cups should not be produced. They felt foolish, however, when they learned that chemical’s common name—water. Another hoax caused fear in Hong Kong. A website with the name of a famous newspaper reported that the government planned to order local people to stay in their homes for the reason of unknown disease. As a result, worried people crowded the supermarket to buy daily products. Financial markets began to fall, too.It’s sometimes hard to know what’s real and what’s not. Use the Internet, but don’t believe everything you read online.88. Can you get your prize money if you send Gates’ email message to everyone you know?89. How is the wrong information on the Internet passed?90. Why is it still hard to kill the Internet hoaxes?91. What did the city officials in California do after they learned the hoax?92.

He created the writing system that turns Chinese characters into words using letters from the Roman alphabet. He died at the age of 111.Mr. Zhou, who was born in 1906 during the Qing Dynasty, studied in C hina’s first Western -styleuniversity, St. John’s in Shanghai, where he studied economics andlinguistics. As a young man, Mr. Zhou spent time in the US and worked as aWall Street banker and had several chats with Albert Einstein, according toNew York Times . He returned to China in 1949 and was given a task to createa new writing system using the Roman alphabet to help increase literacy.Mr. Zhou spent three years developing the Pinyin system in the 1950s. Itchanged the way the language was taught and helped raise literacy rates(识字率). “We spent three years developing Pinyin. People made fun of us, joking that it had taken us a long time to deal with just 26 letters,” he told the BBC in 2012. He is the man who helped simplify Chinese.Before Pinyin was developed, 85% of Chinese people could not read, now almost all can. It is also widely used to type Chinese characters on computers and smart phones. Now mobile phones and computers regularly use it for Chinese text input. “In the e ra(时代) of mobile phones and globalization, we use Pinyin to communicate with the world. Pinyin is opening up the doors to the world,” Zhou told NPR.——From BBC34. What form of literature is this article?A. News.B. Novel.C. Poem.D. Play.35.

That’s how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world－and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria. “Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr. Kataria. “Everyone’s naturally good at laughing－it’s the universal language. We want people to feel happy with their lives.” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 worldwide.Many doctors are also interested in the effects of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body. Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%.So, what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest－I wasn’t interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha,” while looking at each other. However, our bodies can’t tell the difference between fake laughter and real laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects.Surprisingly, it works! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real－and some people just couldn’t stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if you’re under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results!38. In which country was the first Laughter Club started?A. Britain.B. America.C. Australia.D. India.39. How did the writer feel at the beginning of the class?A. Surprised.B. Pleased.C. Nervous.D. Stressful.40. When did the people in the club begin to laugh for real?A. After a few minutes.B. After a few hours.C. After a few seconds.D. After a few days.41. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Fake laughter and real laughter are both good for health.B. 40% of the people in Laughter Clubs are good friends.C. Adults laugh more often than children in a day.D. Laughing is the best way to prevent illness.DEnglish means endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven’t you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brain power. Researchers found that learning other languages changes grey matter(灰质). This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles(肌肉).The study also found the effect is greater when the younger people learn a second language. A team led by Dr. Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of “early bilinguals” who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.Scans showed that grey matter density(密度) in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without a second language. But the longer a person waited beforemastering a new language, the smaller the difference was.“Our findings su ggest that the structure of the brain is changed by theexperience of learning a second language,” said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Jones of the University of Wales, has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills. “Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible(灵活的),”he said. “You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas.”The findings were matched in a study of native Italian speakers who had learned English as a second language between the ages of two and thirty-four. Reading, writing, and comprehension were all tested. The results showed that the younger they started to learn, the better. “Studying a language means you get an entrance to another world,” explained the scientists.42. Who can study a second language easier?A. The adults.B. The women .C. The old.D. The children.43. What will change more when a person studies a second language?A. Mental system.B. Muscles.C.

Are you jealous of them? Are you grateful to them? Please think it over after reading the following text. You will probably learn a lot.Once a zoologist worked on antelopes （羚羊）which were living on both sides of a river in the Republic of South Africa. He discovered that the antelopes on the east side multiplied （繁殖）more quickly and ran faster than those on the west.The zoologist was puzzled after long thought about the difference. As two groups of antelopes lived in the same environment and they fed on the same kind of grass.One year, with the help of the Animal Protecting Society, he caught ten antelopes on each side and exchanged them. A year later, the ten antelopes sent to the west bank multiplied by fourteen while only three of the ones sent to the east remained. Where are the other seven? They had been eaten by wolves!At last the zoologist understood why the antelopes on the east were stronger. That was because on the east side there were living a group of wolves ---their natural enemy!Now everything is plain sailing in your life. It's your opponents （对手）that you are improving indeed, so thanks must go to your opponents. It's a true!1.The zoologist was puzzled when he found.A.the antelopes on the west side multiplied more than those on the east.B.the antelopes on the east side ran faster than those on the west.C.the two groups of antelopes lived in the same environment.D.the two groups of antelopes fed on the same kind of grass.2.What does the underlined word "jealous" mean in the passage?A.害怕的B.生气的C.嫉妒的D.憎恨的3.What is the passage mainly about?A.Antelopes should be raised on the same side of the river.B.Antelopes should be raised with wolves.C.We should learn from the zoologist.D.We should be grateful to our opponents.A city without cars would be very strange, right? But Venice is such a city.Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It wasn't built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands.Seawater is everywhere around the city.Even so, travel isn't difficult. The waterways have always been the best way to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can guide you where you want to go.People in Venice move from place to place by boat.Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem. Sometimes tourists will have such strange experiences. One moment they walk across the Rialto Bridge, and there5s nothing special. But when they come back to the bridge an hour later, it's underwater and everyone is wearing rain shoes.Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters. Another problem is the rising seawater. The temperature has risen over the years. This has made the ice of the Arctic Ocean melt. Every year, high waters hit the city in autumn and winter. When a lot of water comes, more than half of the city is underwater.Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower. The Italian government has asked some of Italy's biggest companies to build the MOST project, which wasplanned to be build under the seawater to stop the rising water. Anyway, this project is helping solve the problem.4.Which is the best way to travel in Venice?A.400 bridges.B.Taxis and cars.C.The waterways.D.Boats and rain shoes.5.What doesn't cause Venice to get lower and lower?A.The ice of the Arctic Ocean melt.B.Seawater is everywhere around the city.C.People used too much underground water.D.The temperature has become higher over the years.6.What can we infer from the last passage?A.Venice is sure to stop getting lower.B.High waters won't hit Venice any more.C.Scientists can solve the problems easilyD.Some possible ways help to solve the problem.7.Whafs the best title of this passage?A.The Specials and Problems of VeniceB.The History of Venice.C.The Places of Interest of VeniceD.The MOST Proj ect of Venice.In Britain.Boxing Day is usually celebrated on December 26th, which is the following day after Christmas Day.However, strictly speaking.Boxing Day is the first weekday after Christmas.Like Christmas Day.Boxing Day sing a public holiday.This means ifs a non - working day in the whole of Britain. When Boxing Day falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the following Monday is the public holiday.The exact origin （起源）of the holiday is unclear. One of the thoughts is that during the Middle Ages, when great sailing ships were setting off to discover new land, a Christmas Box was placed by a priest （1申父）on each ship.Those sailors who wanted to ensure a safe return would drop money into the box.lt was sealed up and kept on board until the ship came home safely.Then the box was handed over to the priest in the exchange for the saying of a Mass of thanks for the success of the sailing.The priest wouldn't open it to share the contents with the poor until Christmas.One more thought is about the "Alms Box,, placed in every church on ChristmasDay.Worshippers （做礼拜的人）put gifts for the poor into it.These boxes were always opened the day after Christmas, that is why that day became known as Boxing Day.Today, many businesses, organizations and families try to keep the traditional spirit of Boxing Day alive by donating their time, services and money to aid Food Banks, providing gifts for the poor, or helping families in need.Besides, spending time with family and shopping are popular Boxing Day activities now.8.If Christmas Day is on a Saturday, Boxing Day will be celebrated on.A.

They eat, talk, shout and sing. They smile and they kiss. In the English language, there are many expressions about the word "mouth". But some of them are not so nice.For example, if you say bad things about a person, the person might protest and say "Do not bad mouth me.,,Sometimes, people say something to a friend or family member that they later regret because it hurts that people's feelings. Or they tell the person something they were not supposed to. The speaker might say: "I really put my foot in my mouth this time,\ If this should happen, the speaker might feel down in the mouth, In other words, he might feel afraid for saying the wrong thing.Sometimes when one person is speaking, he says the same thing that his friend was going to say. When this happens, the friend might say: "You took the words right out of my mouth!" Sometimes a person has a bad or unpleasant experience with another person. He might say that experience "left a bad taste in my mouth". Or the person has possibly had a very scary experience, like being chased by an angry dog. He might say, " I had my heart in my mouth.,,Some people have lots of money because they were born into a very rich family. There is an expression fbr this, too. You might say such a person "was bom with a silver spoon in his mouth". This rich person is the opposite of a person who lives from "hand to mouth". This person is very poor and only has enough money for the most important things in life, like food.12.When a man says "I had my heart in my mouth", usually he means he is.A. scaredB. excitedC. surprisedD. satisfied13.Your best friend Tony said what you were going to say, you might say:""A.You were born with a silver spoon in your mouthB.You took the words right out of my mouthC.You really left a bad taste in my mouthD.You really put my foot in my mouth.14.

The 16-year-old boy tried to imagine how serious the drought was for the students at that school. However, he realized it was more serious than he had imagined when he saw the sign “DON'T wash clothes with water, or you will be punished.”Because of drought, the school has been short of water for a long time. Each student has only one bottle of water every day for washing and drinking. The drought has made the poor students much poorer.Peng is a student from Beijing Chaoyang Foreign Language School. He took part in the school's Rain & Bow Project from April 2 to 10.The project idea came from Peng's principal(校长). One day, she heard a sad story about Li Guoxian, a poor girl in the Mashan School, who stopped going to school because of drought. The principal started this project to help the school. In one day, 3，000 students made over 10，000 donations of water, books and clothes.Peng and other four students went to the Mashan School and gave the donations with five teachers. They visited poor families, made surveys and had classes at the school.Ding Zhentao, 16, was worried about the school's poor learning environment. “The blackboards and playground are too shabby to use，” Ding said. “Besides, there really aren't enough teachers. A teacher has to teach both history and English, andeven the cook is a class teacher.”Although life isn't easy, students at the school have a positive attitude(积极的态度) towards life and they are quite willing to learn. That's what moved 16-year-old Chen Shi most.“They sang their songs together as usual before class every afternoon.

Reading ComprehensionA. Choose the best answerIn the 1850s, a vast wilderness（荒野）separated California from the eastern U. S. As a result, mail service to California was very slow.William Russell decided to change that. He and two partners selected a route from St. Joseph, Missouri（密苏⾥）, to Sacramento, California. Then they purchased 400 horses, hired workers and set up relay stations（中继站）every 10 to 15 miles. Riders would change horses at these stations, and every 90 to 120 miles a new rider would take over.On April 3, 1860, their service, called the Pony Express, began. The mail deliveries reached California in about 10 days. The riders faced many risks（风险）from extreme weather, hostile（敌对）Native Americans and riding accidents. But they lost only one delivery during the service’s one and a half years’ in operation.The Pony Express service ended in October 1861 after a telegraph line across the U. S. was completed. Yet the riders’courage and accomplishments（成就）still hold a place in legend.Today, you can visit an original Pony Express station. Called the Hollenberg Station, it is located near Hanover, Kanas（堪萨斯州）. The station was originally a five-room building in which Gerat Hollenberg and his wife sold supplies and provided meals for people who were travelling to California and Oregon. The couple also rented out rooms and repaired wagons（货车）for weary travelers. While the Pony Express was in operation, riders changed horses at the station and obtained both food and shelter there.The station is now a historic landmark. For a few dollars, you can tour the site. In a nearby visitor center, there is also a small gift shop and a theater where you can see films about the station.69. William Russell and his partners started the new service to _______.A. hire some workers to raise the horses they had purchasedB. challenge the risks like extreme weather and riding accidentsC. make their mail delivery famous and expand it to other countries.D. speed up the mail service so that it could become much faster70. The Pony Express, managed by Russell and his partners, _______.A. lasted for nearly 1.5 yearsB. never lost any deliveryC. set up relay stations every 15 milesD. began in October, 186171. What the riders did was _______. Which of the following adjectives is not so appropriate（合适的）to complete the sentence?A. dangerousB. usefulC. unforgettableD. exciting72. Gerat Hollenberg and his wife would _______.A. sell supplies to the touristsB. repair wagons for tired travelersC. rent out rooms if travelers neededD. do all of the above73. Since the 1860s , the Hollenberg Station has become_______.A. a center of researchB. a tourist attractionC. a set for moviesD. a social club74. The best title of the passage should be _______.A. Mail service to CaliforniaB. The Pony ExpressC. Horese at the Pony Express stationsD. The business run by HollenbergB. Choose the words or expressions to complete the passageA team of students who were successful in their work got together to visit their old teacher after graduating from college may years later. The talk soon turned into complaints about __75__ in work and life.Before offering his students coffee, the teacher went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and different kinds of cups - plastic, glass, porcelain（陶瓷）, crystal, some common and cheap, some beautiful and __76__ - telling them to help themselves to the coffee.After all the guests had a cup of coffee in hand, the teacher said: “If you noticed, all the nice -looking expensive cups were taken, leaving behind the common and cheap ones. While it is __77__ for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is where your problems and stress come from. We all know that the cup itself __78__ no quality to the coffee. In most case, it is just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup,but you all went for the best cups. And then you began looking at each other’s cups.”Now consider this: Life is the coffee: the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold life, and the type of cup we have does not decide, __79__ change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by only paying attention to the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us. God makes the coffee, not the cups. Enjoy your coffee!“The happiest people don’t have the best of everything. They just_______ the best of everything.” Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.75. A. stress B. difficulty C. sadness D. loss76. A. excellent B. bright C. expensive D. comfortable77. A. careful B. natural C. polite D. formal78. A. increases B. affords C. adds D. provides79. A. also B. if C. for D. nor80. A. have B. use C. make D. putC. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with the proper words.(在短⽂的空格内填⼊适当的词，使内容通顺，每空格限填⼀词，⾸字母已给)The first time I saw Jim Wooten, I really understood him. He was a great TV news reporter.

Just send Gates’ email message to everyone you know, and you can get your prize money. Does this sound too good to be true? This offer from Gates is a hoax(骗局). In fact, anyone with common knowledge in computers could tell whether it is true. But that hasn’t stopped the hoax from spreading across the Internet like wildlife. Millions of Internet users have sent this untrue message.The Internet is full of hoaxes, lies and wrong information. They are passed through e-mails, discussion groups and official-looking websites. Although most of them have been made known to the public what they are, it’s still hard to kill a “good hoax”. Most Internet hoaxes are similar. They often meet the needs of basic human feelings, like fear, greed or pity for others. Most importantly, they often sound as if they could be possible.If you’ve ever been fooled by a hoax, you are certainly not alone. Several famous newspapers have reported information they got online, only to later learn it was only a hoax. Even public official can something be fooled. The city officials in California learned from a website that Styrofoam(塑料泡沫) cups are made with a dangerous chemical, so they ordered that the cups should not be produced. They felt foolish, however, when they learned that chemical’s common name—water. Another hoax caused fear in Hong Kong. A website with the name of a famous newspaper reported that the government planned to order local people to stay in their homes for the reason of unknown disease. As a result, worried people crowded the supermarket to buy daily products. Financial markets began to fall, too.It’s sometimes hard to know what’s real and what’s not. Use the Internet, but don’t believe everything you read online.88. Can you get your prize money if you send Gates’ email message to everyone you know?89. How is the wrong information on the Internet passed?90. Why is it still hard to kill the Internet hoaxes?91. What did the city officials in California do after they learned the hoax?92. Where did the worried people in Hong Kong go to buy daily products?93. What’s the writing purpose of the passage? Please list two points.VII. Writing (作⽂)94. Write at least 60 words about the topic “Life needs …….” (以’⽣活需要….‘为题写⼀篇不少于60个词的短⽂，标点符号不占格)提⽰：⽣活五味杂陈，需要我们的⼀些品质，爱好，技能或⾏为等才能彰显其美的真谛。

Sometimes, they are on streets near schools and shops, too. Most young children are taught what each of the colored lights means, so everybody can stay safe.The first traffic signals were used for trains. The signals were put alongside railway tracks (轨道). The color red was used to mean “stop” because it warned people of danger. A red light was also the easiest color to see from a distance. Train drivers could see the red “stop” light ahead and had enough time to s low down and stop their trains. A green light was used to mean “take care” and a white light meant “go”.However, there were many dangerous accidents on the train tracks. Some train drivers thought a star shining in the night sky was a white light that me ant “go”. So the signals were swapped. The “go” light was changed to green and the “take care” light was changed to white.During these times, people travelled by train or in carts pulled by horses. Years later, when cars were built, people began to drive them because they could travel much faster than horses. However, the road rules for drivers were not very clear and many people were hurt crossing the roads. Yellow warning signs had to be placed beside the roads to remind drivers to take care and allow people to cross safely.Today, towns and cities all over the world have traffic lights.

There's a park that some people want to turn into a golf course (高尔夫球场). Let me tell you why I think it's a bad idea.First, a park is meant to be for the whole community. Not everyone likes golf, so not everyone will get to use the park. This isn't fair. A community park should have open spaces for everyone to use.Second, to make way for the golf course, lots of playground equipment (设施) will have to be moved or knocked down, which is a waste of time and money. It's also a waste of perfectly good equipment. The swings, for example, will probably just end up as litter.Third, what about giving young people something to do Not all kids are crazy about golf. At the moment, the park has a skating place and a playground. These attract lots of kids from the community. If you turn the park into a golf course, these kids won't have anywhere to go and they won't have anything to do.This means that they will stay at home and turn on a video game rather than get some exercise. It also means that they might be out on the street causing trouble. Wouldn't it be better to give them something to do at the parkFinally, golf is expensive. Building a golf course and maintaining (维护)it costs a lot of money. Who is going to pay to maintain the golf course What about those people who can't afford to join a golf club That means that the golf course will only be available to people with lots of money.Turning our park into a golf course is a bad idea. I suggest we have a community meeting before plans go any further.23．Some people want to change the park into __________.A．a golf club B．a golf course C．a park D．a skating place24．According to Paragraph 4, having nowhere to go will make some childrenA．go to get some exercise B．fall in love with golfC．play video games at home D．go to the street and make friends25．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage(P=Paragraph)A．B．C．D．26．What is the writer's purpose in writing this passageA．To help carry out further plans.B．To make the park more beautiful.C．To encourage children to go skating.D．To stop the golf course from being built.【答案】23．B24．C25．D26．DAI(人工智能)makes our lives easier and better.

Sometimes, they are on streets near schools and shops, too. Most young children are taught what each of the colored lights means, so everybody can stay safe.The first traffic signals were used for trains. The signals were put alongside railway tracks (轨道). The color red was used to mean “stop” because it warned people of danger. A red light was also the easiest color to see from a distance. Train drivers could see the red “stop” light ahead and had enough time to s low down and stop their trains. A green light was used to mean “take care” and a white light meant “go”.However, there were many dangerous accidents on the train tracks. Some train drivers thought a star shining in the night sky was a white light that me ant “go”. So the signals were swapped. The “go” light was changed to green and the “take care” light was changed to white.During these times, people travelled by train or in carts pulled by horses. Years later, when cars were built, people began to drive them because they could travel much faster than horses. However, the road rules for drivers were not very clear and many people were hurt crossing the roads. Yellow warning signs had to be placed beside the roads to remind drivers to take care and allow people to cross safely.Today, towns and cities all over the world have traffic lights. Red and green lights match the signals used on the railways. Yellow lights are easy to see, so they are used to warn drivers that they should slow down and prepare to stop.19．Why was the color red used to mean “stop”?A．It reminded people of traffic rules.B．It helped trains run smoothly.C．It gave people a warning of danger.D．It was the first color people thought of.20．What does the underlined word “swapped” in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Designed.
