AA young woman carrying a three-year-old child got on a bus. The conductor hurried to give her a warm welcome and then kindly asked the other passengers to make more room for the woman and her child. On seeing this, people began to talk. “You know this conductor used to be very rude. Now suddenly he has changed his bad behavior , "said a middle-aged man.“Yes, he should be praised and we must write a letter to the company," said a second passenger. “That's right," another lady said, “I wish a newspaper reporter were here so that more people could learn from this conductor. "Just then a gentleman who looked like a teacher turned to the conductor and said , “Excuse me, but can I know your name, please? Your excellent service must b e praised..."Before he could open his mouth, the three-year-old child sitting on the young woman's lap interrupted, “I know his name. I call him Dad."36 The passengers were ________ to see the conductor's kindness to the woman and the child.A. excitedB. pleasedC. surprised37. One passenger suggested writing a letter to the company to ______ .A. make a demand for more busesB. thank the conductor for his good serviceC. criticize the conductor for his rude behavior38. What was the gentleman?A. A teacher.B. A newspaper reporter.C. Not known from the story.39. The word “he” in the last paragraph refers to _______.A. the gentlemanB. the conductorC. the middle-aged manBWill it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class.Opposite to what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.40. During the test, those who were tested were given ________.A. no breakfast at allB. very rich breakfastC. different breakfast or none41. The results of the test show that ________.A. breakfast has great effect on work and studiesB. breakfast has little to do with a person's workC. a person will work better if he has a simple breakfast42. The passage mentions that many people believe that if you don't eat breakfast, you will _________.A. lose weightB. not lose weightC. be healthier43 Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. Poor breakfasts affect those who work with brains.B. Morning diet may cause one to get fatter.C. Reducing lunch and supper is of less value in weight losing.CDear Sir,I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport. Two buses travel along their route: the number 49 and number 16. But by the time the number 16 bus reaches Souk Road it is always full, so I can’t get on it. I have to wait for the number 49, because sometimes there are empty seats on it.The timetable says that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?The regulations (规章 say that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. Why do the half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?The regulations say that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport. I counted the other passengers as they got off. There were 129 of them.It is clear that our bus companies break the regulations and think little of their passengers. Can nothing be done to make your service better?Yours,Tired passenger44.

It’s a letter of thanksB. It’s a letter of apologC. It’s a letter of complaint(投诉DIn almost every big university（大学）in the United States, football is a favourite sport. American football is different. Players sometimes kick the ball, but they also throw the ball and run with it. They try to take it to the other end of the field. They have four chances（机会）to move the ball ten yards（码）. They can carry it or they can throw it. If they move the ball ten yards, they can try to move it another ten yards. If they move it to the end of the field, they receive six points（点）.It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the other team try to stop the man with the ball. If he does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball the other team.Each university wants its own team to win. Many thousands of people come to watch. They all shout for their favourite team.Young men and women come on the field to help the people shout more. They dance and jump while they shout.Each team plays ten or eleven games each season.The season begins in September and ends in November. If a team is very good, it may play another game after the season ends. The best teams play again on January 1, the first day of the New Year. Many people go to see these games and many others watch them on TV.48. The passage talks about ___________.A. footballB. how to play football C American football49.

They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare（比较）them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.52. Satellites travel _____________.A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the ground53. Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because __________.A. the weather satellites can do it easilyB. clouds form thereC. the weather forms there54. Meteorologists forecast the weather __________.A. when they have received satellite picturesB. after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier onesC. before they received satellite pictures55.
