从每题所给的 A B C 和 D 项中 选出最佳选项 并在答题卡上将该项涂 黑 A It was a winter morning just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005 While most people were warming up their cars Trevor my husband had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work On arrival he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does After putting in 10 hours of labor he returned to find his bike gone The bike a black Kona 18 speed was our only transport Trevor used it to get to work putting in 60 hour a week to support his young family And the bike was also used to get groceries 食品杂货 saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story Shortly after that several people in our area offered to help One wonderful stranger even bought a bike then called my husband to pick it up Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity 人性 as a whole And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we too can share with others No matter how big or how small an act of kindness shows that someone cares And the results can be everlasting 41 Why was the bike so important to the couple A They used it for work and daily life B It was their only possession C It was a nice Kona 18 speed D The man s job was bike racing 42 What does the underlined phrase mean 4 A go very far to see someone B walk out on foot to greet someone C help someone D enjoy the moment with someone 43 How did people get to know the couple s problem A From a stranger B From a newspaper C From TV news D From radio broadcasts 44 What do the couple learn from their experience A Strangers are usually of little help B One should take care of their bike C News reports make people famous D An act of kindness can mean a lot 45 What is the best title of the passage A Terrible Suffering B Lasting Smile C Ask strangers for help D Spreading Effect of Acts of Kindness B Most people around the world are right handed This also seems to be true in history In 1799 scientists studied works of art made at different times from 1 500 B C to the 1950s Most of the people shown in these works are right handed so the scientists guessed that right handedness has always been common through history Today only about 10 to 15 of the world s population is left handed Why are there more right handed people than left handed ones Scientists now know that a person s two hands each have their own jobs For most people the hand is used to find things or hold things The right hand is used to work with things This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain The right side of the brain which makes a person s hands and eyes work together controls the left hand The left side of the brain which controls the right hand is the centre for thinking and doing problems These findings show that more artists should be left handed and studies have found that left handedness is twice as common among artists as among people in other jobs No one really knows what makes a person become right handed instead of left handed Scientists have found that almost 40 of the people become left handed because their main brain is damaged when they are born However this doesn t happen to everyone so scientists guess there must be another reason why people become left handed One idea is that people usually get right handed from their parents If a person does not receive the gene 基因 for right handedness he she may become either right handed or left handed according to the chance and the people they work or live with Though right handedness is more common than left handedness people no longer think left handed people are strange or unusual A long time ago left handed children were made to use their right hands like other children but today they don t have to 5 46 After studying works of art made at different times in history the scientists found A the art began from 1 500 B C B the works of art ended in the 1950s C most people shown in the works of art are right handed D most people shown in the works of art are left handed 47 How many people in the world are left handed now A Less than one sixth B More than a half C About 40 D The passage doesn t tell us 48 What is the hand for most people used to do A It s used to find or hold things B It s used to work with things C It s used to make a person s eyes work together D It s the centre for thinking and doing problems 49 According to the passage which of the following is NOT true A No one really knows what makes a person become right handed B Left handedness is cleverer than right handedness C Today children are not made to use their right hands only D Scientists think there must be some reason why people become left handed 50 The best title for this passage is A Scientists New InventionsB Left handed People C Which Hand D Different Brains Different Hands C Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg I didn t think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended as there are a whole lot of antique 古董 shops near my home So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception I was quite wrong The man wouldn t even look at my chair The second shop though slightly more polite was just the same and the third and the fourth so I decided that my approach must be wrong I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper Would you like to buy a chair He looked it over carefully and said Yes not a bad chair How much do you want for it sir Twenty pounds I said OK he said I ll give you twenty pounds It s got a slightly broken leg I said Yes I saw that it s nothing Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited What will you do with it I asked Oh it will be easy to sell once the repair is done I ll buy it I said What do you mean You ve just sold it to me he said Yes I know but I ve changed my mind I am sorry I ll give you twenty seven pounds for it You must be crazy he said Then suddenly the penny dropped I know what you want You want me to repair your chair You re right I said And what would you have done if I had walked in and said Would you mend this chair for me I wouldn t have agreed to do it he said We don t do repairs not enough money in it and too much trouble But I ll mend this for you shall we say for a fiver 五英 镑钞票 He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing 51 We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer A was rather impolite 6 B was warmly received C asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair D asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair 52 The underlined word approach in the second paragraph means A plan for dealing with things B decision to sell things C idea of repairing things D way of doing things 53 The expression the penny dropped in the last paragraph means the shopkeeper A changed his mind B accepted the

Bamboo is one of the nature s most surprising plants Many people call this plant a tree but it is a kind of grass Like other kinds of grass a bamboo plant may be cut very low to the ground but it will grow back very quickly A Japanese scientist recorded one bamboo plant that grew almost 1 5 meters in 24 hours Bamboo grows almost everywhere in the world except Europe There are more than 1 000 kinds of bamboo that grow around the world on both mountains and plains Not all bamboo looks the same Some bamboo plants are very thin They may only grow to be a few centimeters wide while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across This plant also comes in different colors from yellow to black to green Many Asian countries have been using bamboo for hundreds of years They often use bamboo for building new buildings As a matter of fact the cables 绳索 that hold up the hanging bridge across the Min River in Sichuan are made of bamboo The bridge has been in use for more than 1 000 years and is still holding strong In Africa engineers are teaching poor farmers how to find water using bamboo These African countries need cheap ways to find water because they have no money and their fields often die from no rain and no water It seems that bamboo is one of the best things they can use Bamboo pipes and drills 钻 can help to make the poor thirsty fields to be watered 56 How is bamboo like grass A It is thin and easy to cut B It grows everywhere C It grows quickly after its cut short D It is short and green 57 The underlined sentence while others may grow to more than 30 centimeters across means Some other bamboo plants may grow to be very A short B strong C thickD tall 58 From the text we know A most people call bamboo plant trees B a bamboo plant may grow 4 5 meters in three days C the bamboo plant changes its colors when it grows D a bridge held by bamboo cable was built thousands of years ago 59 Why did the engineers teach the poor farmers in Africa to make use of bamboo 7 A Because it is cheap B Because it is colorful C Because it drills fast D Because it is used by Asians 60 Which of the following is NOT true A There are many different kinds of bamboo with different colors B Cables made of bamboo can last for over a thousand years C Bamboo can be used for buildings bridges and watering projects D Bamboo plants are able to grow well in any part of the
