阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a、b、c和d）中，选出最佳选项。a i paid a visit to cambridge last january. though the trip took me 5 hours and it rained the whole day with strong winds there, the town deserved a visit. the bus started at 6:10 a. m. it stopped at 4 airports before we finally arrived，which wasted more time than we expected. tired with long sitting，one passenger stood up to relax his numbed legs. the driver asked him to sit down but in vain. so he pulled up and said seriously, “either you get off or sit down.” to him, safety is the first policy. cambridge consists of over thirty colleges. the oldest part of the university was built in the 13th century while the newest was founded in the mid 1960s.the number of the students is so great that many students live in lodgings（出租房）and move into college for their final year. cambridge is called a university town because there is no clear separation between the university buildings and the rest of the city. the university is not just one part of the town；it is all over the town. the heart of cambridge has shops，pubs，and supermarkets，but most of it is university-colleges，departments，libraries，clubs and other places for university staff and students. students fill the shops，cafes，banks and churches，making these as well part of the university. with over 10,000 undergraduates and postgraduates, the town is a busy place indeed. students here are not allowed to keep cars. if you happen to be walking in the street during a break，better stop a moment to avoid the boiling sea of bicycles hurrying in all directions，carrying students from one college or lecture room to another.56. the writer believed that the trip took more time because of_ a. bad weather b. unexpected stops of the bus c. one passenger d. an accident on the way57.why is cambridge called a university town？ a. it has 10，000 undergraduates and postgraduates. b. there are over thirty colleges in the town. c. all the students and staff live in the town. d. the university and town are fully combined.58. it can be inferred that most cambridge students take _as their first means of transport. a. boats b. cars c. bicycles d. buses bgrace kane hangs onto an olympic dream of clinging to a granite (花岗岩) wall by her fingertips 70 feet from the ground. the fearless girl is only 10, but already has scaled great heights in the sport of rock climbing.last week, kane won a bronze in the 11andyounger sport class at the usa climbing youth national championships in atlanta. she was the only competitor of the 31 there with no climbing coach or topflight facilities in which to train. climbing will become an exhibition at the 2016 rio de janeiro olympics in brazil. the hope of enthusiasts is that the sport will gain full status in 2020.“im already training for that,” said kane. “climbing is my passion, my love, and i want to make something of it.”her dad took her to climb rocks on her fourth birthday for the first time and today he cant keep up with her, “its the freedom to let loose,” she said. “when im up there, im so focused and dont hear anything. i always feel comforted knowing people are supporting me.”the bronze in atlanta qualified kane for the usa team and novembers international championships in ecuador. thats a trip she might have to miss because its too expensive.kane held a backyard music concert-she played the guitar and the piano and wrote inspirational songs-and raised $600 for her $1,500 trip to atlanta. shes also been sponsored by a shoe company, but must rely heavily on donations from family and friends for travel expenses.her mom heather kane said the family has chosen “to do whatever we need to help her achieve her goals”. one of graces biggest challenges is finding balance in her life. theres school, her music and church to fit around climbing.“climbing is going to mean sacrificing things other kids might pursue,” grace said. “but it doesnt bother me. its like playing the piano; you cant take a break or youll lose your touch.”59. what would be the best title of the passage?a. rock climbing gains popularityb. grace kane likes challengesc.a young climber follows her dreamd. an amazing victory for a young rock climber60.we can learn from the second paragraph that rock climbing _.a. is not an exhibition at the olympics nowb. is an official event at the olympics nowc. is not open to childrend. will gain full status in 202061.which of the following is true about grace kane?a. she is only interested in rock climbing.b. she is a girl with many talents.c. rock climbing has affected her study.d. she has won gold medals in several matches.62.one of graces biggest challenges is to _.a. find a capable coach for herb. get qualified for the usa teamc. raise enough money for international competitionsd. keep balance between rock climbing and other activitiescwhen i was a baby, i entertained you and made you laugh. whenever i was “bad”, youd shake your finger at me and ask, “how could you?”-but then youd give up, and roll me over for a belly scratch and i believed that life could not be any more perfect.my housetraining was a long process, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. we went for long walks, runs in the park and car rides. we stopped for ice cream. i took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate. eventually, you fell in love. she, now your wife, is not a dog person, but i still welcomed her into our home. i was happy because you were happy. then the human babies came along and i shared your excitement, i was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and i wanted to mother them too. your wife was afraid i would bite them. but nevertheless, as they began to grow, i became their friend.now, you have a new job in another city and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets. youve made the right decision for your “family”, but there was a time when i was your only family.i was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the dog pound. it smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness. you filled out the paperwork and said, “i know you will find a good home for her.” they shrugged and gave you a pained look. the children were in tears as they waved me goodbye. and “how could you?” were the only three words that swept over my mind.is it better to live with hope or without hope? at first, whenever anyone passed my pen (围栏), i rushed to the front, hoping it was you, that you had changed your mind and that this was all a bad dream.my beloved master, i will think of you and wait for you forever. i hope you receive more faithfulness from your family than you showed to me.63. who tells this story?a. a dog. b. a child. c. a dogs owner. d.a dog trainer64. why did the dogs owner take his dog to the pound?a. he had a newborn baby. b. his wife did not like the dog.c. he was moving into a new building. d. he thought the dog too troublesome.65. which is true about the dog when it lived at the pound?a. it hoped to be adopted by another family.b. it continued to love its former owner.c. it did not trust humans any more. d. it was excited about the pound.66. what is the theme of the story?a. be ready for changes. b. never expect too much.c. never complain about your life. d. be faithful to those who love you.dviolent winds swept the ocean, and waves thundered to shore, shaking the lookout tower at pea island rescue station. surfman theodore meekins was on watch that evening of 11 october 1896. a hurricane had struck the outer banks of north carolina, and the tide was so strong that beach patrols(巡逻)had been canceled. still, meekins paid close attention to the horizon. this was the type of weather that could blow ships hundreds of miles off course.offshore, the ship e.s. newman was caught in the storm. the captain, whose wife and child were on the ship, feared the newman would soon break up. he made the decision to beach his ship, then fired a signal, praying that someone onshore would see it.meekins, whose eyes were trained to cut through rain and surf mists, thought he saw the signal, but so much spray (水雾) covered the lookout windows that he could hardly make sure. still, he took no chances. after summoning (召集) the station keeper, captain richard etheridge, meekins set off a coston signal
