Bending over his radio, the perturbed Japanese soldier adjusted his earphone. What were those strange sounds that he couldn’t recognize? What tricks were the Americans on the other side of the Pacific island up to this time? He motioned hurriedly for an interpreter(翻译).
Miles away in a clearing surrounded by dense jungle, a group of soldiers stood guard as
American Indian soldiers quickly translated messages from English into another language. In moments, one of these specially trained soldiers stepped to radio, adjusted the frequency dials, and began his second transmission in the language of the Navaho.
The Japanese never were able to crack(破译) the code of the Navaho Indian during the Second World War. Many Americans lives were saved because no one in the Japanese Army was able to speak the language of the American Indians who served their country so well.
56．The best title for the passage is _____.
A．Navaho Radioman in World War II B．Jungle Warfare in the Pacific
C．Japanese Radiomen in World War II D．A Japanese Victory

The newspaper seller was a clean, neat man, of about forty with a rather serious, unsmiling face. He didn’t speak much to the customers or to his helpers, but when he did he spoke slowly and quietly, as if to himself. He believed in efficiency, not conversation. and this was how the office workers, rushing to catch their trains, preferred it.
It had been a good day. Lunch-time had been warm and sunny, and many people had bought magazines to read outside with their sandwiches. Now it was cold rainy, and people wanted an evening paper for a cheerless joyless journey ahead and a dull evening indoors.
At 6:30, with the main rush over, he started to collect the money together and count it. Then he left the stand and went home. It was the assistan t’s turn this evening to look after it till eight o’clock, when it would be packed away for the night. His large white Mercedes was in the private
car park of a large government building. He’d parked there for six months, pretending to be part of a heating firm working in the building. They would find out about him soon, and he’d have to park in a garage again, which was annoying. Their charges were far too high. A couple of junior clerks, regular customers, happened to see him getting into his car. “must be a lot of money in papers, eh?” one of them shouted. He just smiled coldly in reply, and got into the car, placing the bags of money on the floor.
He thought about the clerks on the way home. Like the majority of his customers, despite their white shirts and dark suits, they probably made in a week as much as he could make in a good day. 59．It seems unlikely that the newspaper seller would be the sort of man who would ______.
A．be a cheerful companion B．try to cheat a customer
C．earn a great deal of money D．trust his assistant much
60．The assistant’s job that e vening was to ______.
A．sell papers until 8 o’clock B．start selling magazines at 8 o’clock
C. count the money taken that day D．lock up the car park
61．If they realized that he was not a heating engineer he would have to _______.
A．park his car in a government car park B．look for another free parking place
C．pay to park his car in a garage D．pretend he was a government employee 62．When the newspaper seller thought about the two clerks he decided they were _______ A．badly dressed B. very well off
C．not as rich as himself D．not as hardworking as himself
C
When we think of creative people the names that probably come to mind are those of men such as Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein, and Pablo Picasso, i.e. great artists, inventors and scientists---a selected and exceptionally gifted body of men with rare talent and genius. The tendency to regard creativity and imaginative aspects inherent(固有的) in the solution of many of the tasks we regularly have to face---the discovery and development of new methods and techniques, the improvement of old methods, existing inventions and products.
Everyone has creative ability to some degree. Creative thinking involves posing oneself a problem and then originating or inventing a solution along new and unconventional lines. It involves drawing new analogies(类似), discovering new combinations, and new applications（应用）of things that are already known. It follows, then, that a creative person will exhibit great intellectual curiosity and imagination. He will be alert and observant with a great intellectual curiosity and imagination. He will be alert and observant with a great store of information which he will be able to sort out and combine, in the solution of problems. He will be emotionally receptive to new ideas and will be less interested in facts than in their implications. Most important of all, he will be able to communicate uninhibitedly(不受约束的) and will not be too concerned about other people’s reaction to his apparently “crazy” notions. People called the Wright brothers mad but it did not stop them from becoming the first men to construct and fly a heavier –than-air craft.
63．The author believes that creative thinking ____.
A．is only possessed by great artists B．requires rare talent and genius
C．is needed in the solution of many problems D．belongs to a lucky few
64．In order to solve scientific problems, people ____.

C．must possess crazy notions D．should have inhibitions

C．be emotional when he looks at facts

This is one of the most tasty ways of cooking carrots, and also the most sensible. Root vegetables easily absorb fat. By cooking not in water but in butter, you help to conserve
nourishment.
You need a thick saucepan with a really tightfit lid. (This is essential because the carrots cook in the steam from their own moisture, and they produce so little steam that none of it must escape.) COOKING TIME
Sliced old carrots: 10-20 minutes; whole new carrots: up to 45 minutes
INGREDIENTS
Carrots , about 1 teaspoon of butter, seasoning, a very small amount of sugar, chopped parsley(西芹).
METHOD
1. “Scrub”and peel the carrots and cut older carrots into even slices, not too thick. New carrots can be left whole.
2. Heat enough butter to cover the bottom of the pan well. When it is hot but not smoking, add the carrots.
3. Add salt and pepper, but not too much because , in this way of cooking, none of the seasoning’s flavor will be lost.
4. Cover with lid and cook over a gentle heat, shaking the pan occasionally so that the carrots do not stick or burn. Sliced carrots will take 10-20 minutes to become tender according to thickness. Whole new carrots may take up to 45 minutes.
5. Sprinkle light ly with the sugar.… this helps to bring out the natural flavor of the carrots. Also sprinkle with coarsely(大块地) chopped parsley if you like the extra color and flavor.
67．A tightfit lid is needed to ____.
A．prevent steam from escaping B．prevent the carrots from escaping
C．conserve sauce D．let moisture escape

Harvard University is on the both sides of the Charies River. The old institution of higher learning in the United States was founded in 1636. In 1638 it was named for John Harvard, its first founder. During the 1640s the college was enlarged although it was short of money. Meant to be an institution for the education of Puritan ministers(清教徒牧师), it grew to be an institution of general education, and new and more subjects and policies(政策) were introduced. In the 18th century, particularly under John Leverett(1708-1724), the number of the students and campus equipment increased while the religious(宗教) color decreased.

Harvard also has schools of business administration(1980), medicine(1782), public health(1922), and dental health(1941). Radcliffe College for women is connected with Harvard; its students are taught by Harvard professors and receive diplomas given by Harvard. The university library, among the nation’s finest, houses over 8 million volumes, and the Fogg Museum Art is one of the finest university museums in the world. Harvard is closely connected with a large number of research institutions as well.
