Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.
One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to hire. With the same money, one can get a large house in the country with a garden of one's own.
Then in the country one can rest from the noise and hurry of the town. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has the reward of one who has shared the secret of Nature.
Some people, however, take no interest in country things. For them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional(偶尔) walk in one of the Parks and a fortnight's visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want; the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.
56. Which of the following statements is not true?
A. People who like country things prefer to live outside the city.
B. People who work in London prefer to live in the country.
C. Because of certain disadvantages of living outside London, some people working in London prefer to live inside London.
D. Because of certain advantages of living outside London, many people working in London prefer to live outside London.
57. When the flowers and vegetables in the garden come up, those _________ have the reward of one who has shared the secret of Nature.
A. live in the country
B. who have spent time working in the garden
C. who have a garden of their own
D. who have been digging, planting and watering
58. People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that __ if they had to live outside London.
A. their life was meaningless B. their life was valuable
C. they didn't deserve(值得)a happy life D. they were not worthy of their happy life
59. The underlined words "the rest" refer to ________.
A. the rest time B. the rest people
C. the rest of the country D. the rest of the parks and the sea

Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, especially their parents, don' t know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice.
It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in children's growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members.
However, parents often try to choose their children's friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of "choice" is an interesting one. Have you ever thought of the following questions?
Who choose your friends?
Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you?
Have you got a good friend your parents don' t like?

B. Some parents may even ask their children to stay away from their good friends.

China began work on one of the world's longest bridges in Zhejiang Province On June 8. The 36km bridge over Hangzhou Bay will cut the journey between Ningbo and Shanghai by 120km.
The construction work is expected to be finished in five years and the bridge will open for traffic in 2009. The project will cost 11.8 billion yuan and is thought to last 100 years.
The bay itself is at the center of a densely populated region that includes Shanghai on the northern edge and the major port of Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, to the south.
Shanghai and Ningbo have close economic ties, but it is 304 kilometers long between the two cities. The bridge will shorten the distance by 120km. The flat structure could be the longest sea – crossing bridge in the world. According to the Guinness Book of Records, the record over water is now held by the lake - crossing bridge in Lousiana, US, at 38.5km.
Jin Jianming , an official in charge of the Chinese bridge project says that the new bridge reflects China's growing economic power.
The bridge is also one part of a 5,200 - km highway planned as a link between the northern province of Heilongjiang and the southernmost city of Sanya on the island province of Hainan.
Work on the dam began a week after engineers began filling the Three Gorges Dam reservoir on the Yangtze River.
64. The purpose of writing the passage is to tell us ______.
A. how much the new bridge will cost
B. why China began to build the longest bridge across the sea in the world
C. China has started to build the longest bridge across the sea in the world
D. how much money the bridge will cost
65. When the bridge is completed, the distance between Shanghai and Ningbo will be ______ kilometers or so.
A. 120 B. 140 C. 184 D. 304
66. The main purpose of building the longest bridge across the sea is to _______.
A. do wonders B. help develop economy
C. show China's growing economic power
D. make it easy to enjoy the beautiful scene of the sea
67.The last but one paragraph(倒数第二段) mainly tells us ________.
A. the important part the bridge will play

Yang Yongfang used to take the bus to work. But, these days, when she takes a look at the bus, all she sees is "a big box full of people, all breathing in there. It seems very unsafe."
And that means SARS. So Yang got out her bicycle and dusted it off. Other Chinese who, until recently, appeared to be moving away from the old mode of transportation, seem to be back riding as well.
Of course, there' s no shortage of bikes. There were plenty long before SARS showed up. But in recent years, private cars have been growing in large numbers, crowding bicycles off the streets in some of the biggest cities. Now SARS has brought the bicycle traffic back. Crowded trains and buses look less attractive(吸引人的).
In Shanghai 120,000 more bicycles were registered(登记) in April, well above last year's monthly average of 50,000.
People's Daily recently reported that "bicycle" had suddenly become the third most frequently searched term on the nation's largest Web search engine.
However, if bike sales Continue upward, it could become a nightmare (噩梦) for traffic planners, who had to contend with the often deadly clash between bikes and motorized vehicles. Shanghai officially sees nearly one traffic - related bicycle death a day, a figure that many people here say is probably an understatement. (少报).
68. Before SARS broke out, Yang Yongfang________.
A. was tired of going to work by car B. went to work by bike
C. had already sold her bike D. went to work by bus
69. More and more people in Shanghai are beginning to ride, because _________.
A. riding a bike is much more convenient
B. riding a bike costs less than taking the bus
C. they care more about their health
D. the government has been encouraging them to do exercise
70. The writer of the passage ________ the phenomenon (现象) that bike sales continue upward.
A. is strongly against B. is for
C. shows no opinion of D. is worried about
71.What is the best title for the passage?
A. Bikes Sell Well in Shanghai B. The New Fashion
C. Back to Nature D. Shanghai Takes on a New Look

Perhaps the most famous theory, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Ray Birdwhistell. He believes that physical experience is often culturally programmed. In other words, we learn outlooks - we are not born with them. A baby has generally informed face features. A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around - family and friends. This helps explain why the people of some areas of the US look so much alike. New Englanders or Southerners have certain common face features that cannot be explained by genetics (遗传学). The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth are set. For many, this can be well into grown - ups. A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our looks from those around us. This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile most frequently. In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York State still less. Many Southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people on Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia. People in largely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less than people in small towns do.
72. Ray Birdwhistell believes that physical appearance _________.
A. has little to do with culture B. has much to do with culture
C. is ever changing D. is different from place to place
73. According to the passage, the final mouth shape is formed _________.
A. before birth B. as soon as one's teeth are newly set
C. sometime after new teeth are set D. around 15 years old
74. Ray Birdwhistell can tell what area of the United States a person is from by _______.
A. how much he or she laughs B. how he or she raises his or her eyebrows
C. what he or she likes best D. the way he or she talks
75. This passage might have been taken out of a book dealing with _________.
A. physics B. chemistry C. biology D. none of the above

Good morning, everybody. My topic for today is "How American Value Time."
Americans think a great deal about time. From childhood they learn to value time. As children, they are taught to be on time to go to school, to do work and to do everything. When they are having a good time, they say that time flies. When a person is dying, they say he is living on borrowed time.
Time is money. Time is knowledge. Time is everything ill America. A working American has to work hard for 8 hours a day or 40 hours a week. This is the working time: In his spare time, he also works hard for more money. Even Saturday and Sunday are filled with activities. In the street you can hardly see a man who walks slowly. They walk very fast. In fact, they are framing.

Dear editor,
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we recently had about whether we should know our parents’ income.
We do have different opinions on this matter. Most of us(about 70%) think we should know our parents’ income since it will help us understand how hard our parents have to work, no matter how much they earn. Then we will study harder and will not waste money any more. We may also learn to share our parents’ trouble.
About 30% of my classmates think it unnecessary to let the children know how much their parents earn. If they know their parents have enough money to support the family, they will not study hard since they needn’t worry about the future. It is said, especially when their parents have a higher income, the children will easily form a wasteful habit.
