Many studies of car accidents have shown that seat belts can save _11_. One study showed that forty perent of those _12_ in car accidents could have been saved if they _13_ seat belts.Unfortunately, belts are worn only by a _14_ percentage of drivers and passengers-about fifteen percent in cities, and only nine percent in small _15_. And seat belts cannot protect people who do not wear them.Advertisements have been printed _16_ newspapers and magazines in order to make people become _17_ of the importance of using seat belts. But these _18_ have not helped much. Some people believe there should be a _19_ requiring drivers and passengers to use seat belts. In Australia, _20_ thers is such a law, deaths from car accidents have decreased by twenty-four percent since it was enforced. In China, drivers-though not passengers-are required to fasten their seat belts; otherwise they can fined as much as 200 yuan.11 A moneyB livesC spaceD room12 A killing B killedC to killD to be killed13 A woreB have wornD are wearingD had worn14 A bigB largeC smallD little15 A townsB areasC countriesD regions16 A inB onC overD by17 A sureB alertC awareD known18 A beltsB magazinesC newspapersD advertisements19 A lawB ruleC methodD regulation20 A whichB thatC whenD whereIII Reading ComprehensionPassage OneBecket not only traveled light, he also lived light. In all the world he owned just the clothes he stood up in, a full suitcase and a bank account. Arriving anywhere with these possessions, he might just as easily put up for a month or a year as for a single night. For long stays not less than a month, he might take a furnished flat, sometimes even a house. But whatever the case was, he rarely needed anything he did not have with him.Becket had one occasional anxiety; he suspected that he owned more than would fit comfortably into the suitcase. Having no use for choice or variety, he kept just a raincoat, a suit, a pair of shoes, a few shirts and some socks; no more in the clothing line. He bought and read many books and left them wherever he happened to be sitting when he finished them.Becket was a professional traveler, interested and interesting. He was not the type to “do” a country in a week or a city in three days. He liked to get the feel of a place by living in it, reading its newspapers, watching its TV and discussing its affairs. He always tried to make a few friends-if necessary even by stopping a suitable-looking person in the street and talking to him. It worked well in about one case out of ten. Though Beckets health gave him no cause for alarm, he made a point of seeing a doctor as soon as he arrived anywhere. “A doctor knows a place and its people better than anyone, “ he used to say.Becket was an artist as well. He painted pictures of the places he visited and , when he had gathered enough information, he wrote about them. He sold his works to newspapers and magazines. It was an agreeable sort of life for a good social mixer, and as Becket never stayed anywhere for long, he enjoyed the satisfying advantage of paying very little in taxes.21 What do we know about Beckets possessions?AHe carried all of them with him.BHe wanted to have more clothes.C He left all his belongings at home.DHe carried some of them with him.22 Becket would rent a flat when he _.Awas to stay over a monthBcould not find suitable hotels Cwas to put up for several nightsDplanned to stay at least for a year23 When Becket tried to make friends with strangers in the street, _.Amost people felt very pleasedBhis attempts failed in most casesChe preferred good-looking peopleDmany people stopped to talk with him24 Judging from the passage, Becket made a living by _.AtravelingB social workCpainting and writingD collecting information25 As far as taxes were concerned, Becket probably_.A hated to pay any taxesB enjoyed paying very littleC traveled abroad and paid noneD felt ashamed of not paying anyPassage TwoA gray sweater hung limply （无生气地）on Tommys empty desk, a reminder of the miserable boy who had just followed his classmates from out third-grade room. Soon Tommys parents, who had recently separated, would arrive for a conference on his failing schoolwork and troublesome behaviors. Neither parent knew that I had arranged for the other to come.Tommy, an only child, had always been happy, cooperative and an excellent student. How could I convince his parents that his recent failing grades represented a broken-hearted childs reaction to the separation and coming divorce of the two he so dearly loved?Tommys mother entered and took one of the chairs I had placed near my desk. Soon the father arrived. Good! At least they were concerned enough to be prompt. A look of surprise and impatience passed between them, and then they pointedly ignored each other.As I gave a detailed account of Tommys behavior and schoolwork, I prayed for the right words to bring these two together, to help them see what they were doing to their son. But somehow the words wouldnt come.Then I found a crumpled （揉成一团的）tear-stained sheet stuffed in the back of Tommys desk. Silently I smoothed it out and gave it to Tommys mother. She read it and then without a word handed it to he husband. He frowned. Then his face softened. He studied the scrawled words for a long time.At last he folded the paper carefully, placed it in his pocket, and reached for his wifes outstretched hand. She wiped the tears from her eyes and smiled up at him. Tears welled up in my eyes, but neither seemed to notice. He helped her with her coat and they left together.It was the sheet of yellow copy paper covered with the painful outburst of a small boys troubled heart that helped me. On both sides of it was single sentence written over and over again:”Dear MomDear DaddyI love youI love youI love you.”26 The writer of the passage was Tommys _.A parent B teacherC classmateD schoolmaster27 The writer believed that in the past Tommy had been _.Aa careless and impossible sonBa flexible and cooperative childCa cheerful and outstanding studentDa disrespectful and aggressive boy28 In the writers opinion, the gray sweater hanging limply on the desk is a sign of Tommys _.Alow spiritsBfailing schoolworkCinactive personalityDtroublesome behaviors29 Before Tommys parents arrived, the writer _.Aknew they would soon reuniteBwas sure that they would comeCdecided to show them the tear-stained paperDhad found out the cause of Tommys misery30 The writer regarded the changes in Tommys school performance as the result of his parents _.A divorceB separationC neglectfulnessD soft-heartednessPassage ThreeThe modern age is an age of electricity. People are so used to electric lights, radios, televisions and telephones that it is hard to imagine what lift would be like without them. When there is a power failure, people grope about in the dark, cars hesitate in the streets because there are no traffic lights to guide them and food spoils in silent refrigerators.Yet, people began to understand how electricity works only a little more than two centuries ago. Nature has apparently been experimenting in this field for millions of years. Scientists are discovering that the living world may hold many interesting secrets of electricity that could benefit humanity.All living cells send out tiny pulses of electricity. As the heart beats, it sends out electric pulses. They form an electrocardiogram （心电图）, which a doctor can sstudy to determine how well the heart is working. The brain , too, sends out brain waves of electricity, which can be recorded in electroencephalogram（脑电图）. The electric currents produced by most living cells are extremely small-often so small that sensitive instruments are needed to record them. But in some animals, certain muscle cells have become so specialized in producing electricity that they do not work as muscle cells any more. When large numbers of these cells are linked together, the effects can be astonishing.The electric eel-a long thin fish with slippery skin-can produce amazingly strong electricity. It can send an electric current as high as eight hundred volts through the water in which it lives. As many as four-fifths of all the cells in the electric eels body are capable of producing electricity, and the strength of the shock depends on the length of its body.31 The phrase “grope about” (line 3, para. 1) could be replaced by _.A feel about B move aboutC walk away D run away32 When talking about power failures, the author mentions problems related to _.A radios and televisionsB cars and telephonesC radios and telephonesD refrigerators and traffic lights33 The author mentions electric eels _.A to warn the reader to stay away from themB to describe a new source of electrical powerC as an example of electrically charged dangerous animalsD as an example of animals capable of producing electricity34 Electric pulses of the eel are produced by its _.A skinB heartC brainD cells35 The strength of the eels electric shock has to do with _.A the eels ageB the eels weightC how long the eel isD the water it lives inPART TWOIV Word Spelling36. 肺 n. l_ _ _37 批准，造成n. a _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _38 使混乱，混淆 v. c _ _ _ _ _ _ 39 而且，此外 adv.
