30、rs now I have been studying my fellowmen. I dont know very much about them. I shrug my shoulders when people tell me that their first impressions of a person are always right. I think they must have small insight or great vanity. For my own part I find that the longer I know people, the more they pu

31、zzle me. I read in this morning's paper that Edward Hyde Burton had died. He was a merchant and he had been in business in Japan for many years. Once he gave me a great surprise. Unless I had heard the story from his own lips, Id never have believed that he was capable of such an action. He was

32、always neatly and quietly dressed in accordance with his age and position. He didnt talk much, but what he said was sensible. You couldnt imagine hed possibly raise his voice in anger. Here was a man who attracted you because you felt in him a real love for his fellows. Hed tell with point a good an

33、d spicy story, and in his youth hed been something of an athlete. He was a rich man and hed made every penny himself. I suppose one thing that made you like him was that he was so weak; he aroused your instincts（本能）of protection. You felt he couldnt bear to hurt a fly.One afternoon Burton told me a

34、“funny” story in a quiet, dry humour:“There was a namesake（同名人）of mine, who was the best bridge player I ever met. He seemed to have a fantastic instinct about the cards. I used to play with him a lot.”“He was handsome in a way with curly hair and pink-and- white cleeks. Women thought a lot of him.

35、There was no harm in him, he was only wild. Of course he drank too much. He won a good deal of my money by card-playing.”“One day he came to me when he went broke. He came to see me in my office and asked me for a job. I asked him how old he was.“Thirty-five, he said.”"'And what have you be

36、en doing ?' I asked him."'Well, nothing very much,' he said."'I'm afraid I can't do anything for you just yet,' I said. 'Come back and see me in another thirty-five years, and I'll see what I can do.'"He didn't move. He went rather pale. He

37、hesitated for a moment and then he told me that he had had bad luck at cards for some time. He hadn't been willing to stick to bridge, he'd been playing poker, and he'd got trimmed. He hadn't a penny. He'd pawned everything he had. He couldn't pay his hotel bill and they woul

38、dn't give him any more credit. He was down and out. If he couldn't get something to do he'd have to commit suicide."I looked at him for a bit. I could see now that he was all to pieces. He'd been drinking more than usual and he looked fifty. The girls wouldn't have thought s

39、o much of him if they'd seen him then."I got an idea of what he was driving at. I've known too many men who used to be popular at their university.“Suddenly I had an idea.” Pausing in his story, Burton turned to me. “When I was young I swam over three miles round the beacon（灯塔）and lande

40、d at the river of Tarumi. Its rather difficult on account of the currents round the beacon. Well, I told my young fellow about it and I said that if hed do it Id give him a job.“I could see he was rather taken aback. He was not in good condition for sports. He looked at me for a moment and then he n

41、odded.”“I told him Id drive round to the river at half past twelve and meet him."Done,"he said.“I wished him good luck and he left me.I had a lot of work to do that morning and I only just managed to the creek at Tarumi at half past twelve. But I needn't have hurried; he never turned u

42、p“Did he funk it at the last moment?” I asked.“No,he didn't funk it. He started all right. But of course he'd ruined his constitution by drink. The currents round the beacon were more than he could manage. We didn't get the body for about three daysI didn't say anything for a moment

43、or two. I was shocked. Then I asked.“When you made him that offer of a job, did you know he'd be drowned?'He looked at me with his kind blue eyes, smiling. "Well,I hadn't got a vacancy in my office at the moment.'55The author believes _.Asome people are too easy to understand Ba

44、ppearance is just opposite to the qualityCfirst impressions can be misleading Dhis fellowmen are not understandable56For some time, Edward Burton impressed the author most with his_ .Aage and position Bwealth and abilityCsensibility and humor Dkindness and weakness57The underlined words “he was all

45、to picces” may mean_ .Ahe was mad and wild Bhe was completely downChe was sick and dirty Dhe was totally drunk58We can infer from Burtons story that his namesakes .Anever saw through his trick Bannoyed him by playing cardsCcould not do any job well Dintended to cheat him with a lie59We learned from

46、the story that Edward Burton _.Aknew the young man would kill himself Barranged the end of his namesakes lifeCdid much for the poor fellowman Dkilled his card-friend by mistake60Edward Burton could be described as a(n) person.Ainnocent Bsmart Ccareless Devil四、单词拼写1.

Dr Yuan _ for a way to increase rice harvests without _ the

50、 area of the fields. In 1950, Chinese farmers could produce only fifty million tons of rice. In a recent harvest, however, nearly two hundred million tons of rice was produced. These increased harvests mean that 22% of the world's people are fed from just 7% of the farmland in China. Dr Yuan is

51、now _ his knowledge in India, Vietnam and many other less developed countries to increase their rice harvests. With these _, some farmers and many customers are beginning to turn to_ farming. They _ on keeping their soil rich and _ of disease. A healthy soil _ disease and helps crops grow strong and

52、 healthy. These farmers, therefore, often _ using natural waste from animals as fertilizers.六、短文改错 （10分）Dear George,It's been a week after we left your family and we are now back home. Thank you very much for showing them around your city and provide us for the wonderful meals. After we said goo

53、dbye to you, we went to Washington D.C., where we stayed for three days. My brother was so much fond of the museums there that he begged my parents to staying another couple of day. However, my father had to return to work on Monday so we fly back last Saturday afternoon. It was really a nice experi

54、ence. If you'd like to make trip to our city some day, I will be better than happy to be your guide. Yours,Mike附加题：阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from the list A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not nee

55、d.A. The engine in your body.B. The location, size and heartbeat of a heart.C. What happens when the heart beats?D. How does your heart work?E. How do we know about the heart?F. What can a doctor tell by feeling your pulse? 1.79. Your heart is located in your chest, a little to your left. This heart

56、 of yours, which is about the size of your two fists held together, beats about 90 times a minute. A grown person's heart beats about 60 to 80 times a minute. The heartbeat is not just the same in all persons, and it is not the same in any one person at all times.2.79. When your heart beats, it

57、is pumping blood to all parts of your body. If you could examine your heart closely, you would see that it is really two pumps placed side by side, and working at the same time. Each pump has two parts, the upper part called the auricle (心房), and the lower part called the ventricle (心室). The auricle

58、s receive the blood as it comes into them after it has been pumped through the body. The ventricles pump the blood out. The right one pumps the blood to the lungs and the left one pumps the blood to all other parts of the body. At the top and bottom openings of each ventricle are valves (阀门) which m

59、ake the blood go in only one direction.3.79. Your heart is sometimes called the engine or the motor in your body and sometimes called the pump. It works away, both day and night. First it pumps out some blood, rests for a few seconds, and then it pumps some more. In a normal day, the heart pumps abo

60、ut 2,500 gallons of blood from the auricles and ventricles.4.79. By using a stethoscope to listen to the heart, the doctor can tell whether your heart is beating evenly and whether the valves are closing tightly. The stethoscope makes these sounds so clear that the doctor can hear them easily. The s

61、tethoscope has an earpiece that he places on your chest and tubes that he places in his ear. The earpiece carries the sound or your heart's beating along the tubes to the doctor's ears, and it makes the sound seem much louder than it really is. The doctor could listen to your heartbeat by pulling his ear against your chest.5.79. An easy experiment can help you understand what happens when the heart beats. You can do this experiment with a hollow rubber ball. Make a small hole in
