He was lying in bed when something like a smoke alarm 29 his ears. He jumped out of bed, took his 30 and flashlight, and headed down the hillside toward the 31 . That was when he saw the rolling heavy smoke.Huggons dialed 911, and the operator warned him not to 32 the house. But Huggons said, ―There is no way I am going to listen to Sibson 33 and die in that fire.‖―Anyone there?‖ Huggons called out. Then he heard ―Help!

In another50 , subway riders in New Y ork saw a man carrying a stick stumble (绊脚) and fall tothe floor. Sometimes the victim had a large red birthmark on his 51 ; sometimes he did not. In this situation, the victim was more likely to 52 aid if his face was spotless than if he had an unattractive birthmark. In 53 these and other research findings, two themes are 54 : we are more willing to help people we like for some reason and people we think 55 assistance.In some situations, those who are physically attractive are more likely to receive aid.56 , in a field study researchers placed a completed application to graduate school in a telephone box at the airport. The application was ready to be 57 , but had apparently been ―lost‖. The photo attached to the application was sometimes that of a very 58 person and sometimes that of a less attractive person. The measure of helping was whether the individual who found the envelope actually mailed it or not. Results showed that people were more likely to 59 the application if the person in the photo was physically attractive.The degree of 60 between the potential helper and the person in need is also important. For example, people are more likely to help a stranger who is from the same country rather than a foreigner. In one study, shoppers on a busy street in Scotland were more likely to help a person wearing a(n) 61T-shirt than a person wearing a T-shirt printed with offensive words.Whether a person receives help depends in part on the ―worth‖ of the case.For example, shoppers in a supermarket were more likely to give someone 62 to buy milk rather than to buy cookies, probably because milk is thought more essential for 63 than cookies. Passengers on a New Y ork subway were more likely to help a man who fell to the ground if he appeared to be 64 rather than drunk.50.A. study B. way C. word D. college51.A. hand B. arm C. face D. back52.A. refuse B. beg C. lose D. receive53.A. challenging B. recording C. understanding D. publishing54.A. important B. possible C. amusing D. missing55.A. seek B. deserve C. obtain D. accept56.A.

ski resorts 滑雪场 Never mind that Beijings dry weather seldomproduces snow It is cold enough in winter for snow-making machines to make a covering for thehills north to the capital And the rapid growth of a pleasure-seeking middle class has formed the basis for this new craze 热潮Since Beijings first ski resort was opened ten years ago the sport has enjoyed astonishing increase There are now more than a dozen resorts Clothes markets in the city have added bright colored ski suits to their winter collections Mr Wei a manager of a newly-opened ski resort in Beijing sees the growth of an industry that could soon lead Chinese to head for the ski resorts of Europe In recent years ski resorts offering natural snow have opened in China But many are in faraway areas of the country and cant really match the equipment and services of some ski resorts in EuropeBeijings skiing craze is partly a result of the recent increase in private 私有的 cars This has led to the growthof a Ieisure industry in the capitals suburbs 郊区 which until the late-1990s were unreachable to ordinary people According to Mr Wei about 40 of the visitors to his resort come in their own cars The rest are bused in by schools businesses or government OfficesThe problem is making money Starting ski resorts requires quite a lot of money hiring land from the local government preparing the hills buying snow machines making sure there are enough water and electricity to run them and buying ski equipment for hiring out to customersThe ski resort where Mr Wei works cost nearly 4m to set up And as so often in China when someone comes up with a good idea many others hash in and price wars break out Beijing now offers some of the cheapest ski training classes in the world though with most people rather new to the sport expecting a few more doing the same job50 What does this text mainly talk aboutA Convenience for skiers brought about by private carsB Skiing as a new way of enjoying ones spare timeC Things to be

every yearA Propeller Bland City LodgeB Arian Amazon TowersC The Ice HotelD Bahama Beach ClubEHow words came into being is unknown All we assume推测is that some early men invented certain sounds in one way or another to express thoughts and feelings actions and things so that they could talk with each other Later they agreed upon certain signs called letters which could be put together to show those sounds and which could be written down Those sounds whether spoken or written in letters are called words The power of words then lies in their associations - the things they bring up to our minds Words become filled withmeaning for us by experience and the longer we tire the morecertain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of ourpast and the more we read and learn the more the number of wordsthat mean something to us increasesGreat writers are those who not only have great thoughtsbut also express these thoughts in words which have powerfuleffects on our minds and feelings This clever use of words iswhat we call literary style文体 Above all the real poet isa master of words He can express his meaning in words whichsing like music and which by their position and association canmove men to tears We should therefore learn to choose our wordscarefully and use them correctly or they will make our speechsilly and common58 We learn from the text that language might have begunwithA expressionsB actionsC signsD sounds59What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2A The learning of new wordsB The importance of old wordsC The relation of human experience with wordsD The
