It is about the country singer, Jan Howard, and it happened in the mid 1950s. You can read about it in her autobiography(自传), Sunshine and Shadow. She suffered a lot with her three children, two of whom were babies. She was forced to leave her husband because he didnt care about the family. At one point she suffered a nervous breakdown due to his cruel and uncaring behavior. She took her children with her and decided to leave their home, but didnt know her destination (目的地). This all took place in a small town in Kansas, called Frontenac. She had very little gas in the tank and no money at all and she didnt even manage to make it out of Frontenac. As she used up the gas she got into a panic. She then went to a house, not knowing the owner. She put her pride in her pocket and went to the door. After she explained her situation to an old lady who answered the door, the lady asked her husband to help Jan carry the children into the house. These kind people allowed her to stay for two weeks until she received some money in the mail from a relative. They fed and cared for Jan and her children. This is one of the most exciting acts of kindness I have ever come across in my fifty years. These angels were named Henry and Sarah and they would always be warmly remembered by me for what they did for Jan and her children. 41. What is the passage mainly about? A.

In the 700s the worlds first printed newspaper was published. Europe didnt have a regularly published newspaper until 1609, when one was started in Germany. The first regularly published newspaper in the English language was printed in Amsterdam in 1620. In 1621, an English newspaper was started in London and was published once a week. The first daily English newspaper was the Daily Courant (每日新闻). It came out in March 1702. In 1690, Benjamin Harris printed the first American newspaper in Boston. But not long after it was first published, the government stopped the paper. In 1704, John Campbell started The Boston Newsletter (波士顿新闻通讯), the first newspaper published in the American colonies. By 1760, the colonies had more than thirty daily newspapers. There are now about 1,800 daily papers in the United States. Today, as a group, English language newspapers have the largest circulation (发行量) in the world.

Traffic jams can lead to increased accidents as there are more cars， with more people trying to get to their destination，all the while getting worse. Although its impossible to avoid traffic jams altogether，there are some tips you can follow to reduce the amount of time on the road. Check for traffic jams before you leave. You can listen to the radio for traffic news，or check on the Internet to get uptominute information on traffic. If the route you want to take is heavy with traffic, you can choose another.Look for a different route permanently. Most traffic jams occur on busy roads. Using country roads could see you avoiding a lot of traffic. Although the distance you may have to travel is further，it can work out quicker.Set your car radio to receive traffic bulletins. Many new car stereo systems(汽车音响系统)are equipped with a radio system by which you can hear the traffic channel. This way you can get the latest traffic information and change your journey if necessary._. Most traffic jams usually occur during rush hour, so try to avoid this time period if possible. Some jobs offer flexible working hours so that you can travel to work outside of rush hour. Some jobs even allow you to work from home so as to avoid commuting altogether. Ask your manager to see what you can do if traffic is a problem for you. Use public transport alternatives where available. The easiest way to avoid traffic jams is to take buses or the underground instead of driving your own car. Not only will you avoid traffic jams but you will most likely be saving money as the cost of motoring rises.47The underlined word “inevitable” in Paragraph 1 probably means _.Ahard to accept Bimpossible to avoidCgetting less serious Dseen everywhere48The author wrote the text in order to _.Aexplain why there are traffic jamsBtell the negative effects of traffic jamsCtell us what we can do on the roadDtell us how to save time on the road49To get the latest traffic information, you could do the following except _.Asurfing the InternetBlistening to the radio for traffic newsClistening to the traffic channelDturning to other drivers for information50Which of the following can be put in the blank in the text?AChoose a job that has flexible working hoursBTry traveling at different timeCMake friends with your managerDWork from home51According to the author，we should use public transport because _.Ait is cheaper and can avoid traffic jamsBit is useful for usCit is environmentally friendlyDit is completely free from traffic jamsDA recent study shows that boys and girls learn differently. So maybe we can maximize (最大化)learning by teaching them in single gender (性别) programs. First, boys and girls see differently. Boys interpret the world as objects moving through space. In their opinion, a good teacher should move around the room constantly and be that object. The male eye is usually drawn to cooler colors like silver, blue, black, grey, and brown. Its no accident boys tend to create pictures of moving objects like spaceships, cars, and trucks in dark colors instead of drawing a happy colorful family, like girls in their class. The female eye, on the other hand, is drawn to textures(质地) and colors. They tend to like warmer colors red, yellow, orange, and visuals with more details, like faces. Girls work well in circles, facing each other. Using descriptive(描写性的) phrases in presentations or lots of colors on the chalkboard can help get their attention. Boys and girls also hear differently. When someone speaks in a loud tone, girls interpret it as yelling. They think youre mad and should quiet down. Girls are more sensitive to sounds. Girls teachers should notice the tone of their voices. Boys teachers should sound matter of fact, even excited. Boys nervous systems cause them to be more alert when theyre standing, moving, and the room temperature is around 20. Stress in boys tends to increase blood flo
