A
Fifty years ago I married my soldier sweetheart．Six weeks later,he left to fight in Korea．While he was away for that first year of our marriage，I stayed with my mum and worked hard to keep our savings for our first home．After John returned, we found a home and applied for a War Service Home Loan，which at that time took about six months to come through．
The builder of our home lived in the same street as our house and he allowed us to move in and pay rent until our loan came through．The rent was one pound and ten shillings per week，which we thought fair．As we got to know our neighbors，several told us to watch our landlord as he was “sharp” and may cheat us in some way．We always replied that he had given us no cause for complaint．
The loan money came through shortly before Christmas．We were not well-off but we were happy to have our own home．One night，two weeks before Christmas，there was a knock at our door．It was our landlord and his wife．We invited them in and our landlord said，“As you know，your loan has come through and you do not have to pay me rent any more．I did not set that rent，the estate agent(房产代理商)did，and I thought it was a bit high．Every time you paid me I put ten shillings away in a box．It came to 11 pounds．”
We were surprised and delighted．To us，it was a small fortune just in time for Christmas．We were able to buy gifts for our entire family．It was the nicest thing anyone had ever done for us and we decided that we would never judge anyone on hearsay．
56．Why did the couple apply for a War Service Home Loan?

B．They tried to cheat the couple for more money．
C．They wanted to give back part of the rent the couple had paid．

ARK(Absolute Return for Kids)works with seven Home-Start centres across the UK to provide understanding，trained volunteers to support problem families．Through this early intervention(干预、介入)we aim to solve child and family problems before they become so intractable that social service intervention is required．
Problem families in the UK often receive too little assistance too late．Low social service capacity(能力)means families often reach breaking point before receiving any support．Social workers have little time to build trust with the family and develop all understanding of specific problems．What is more，social workers can be regarded by families as a threat一“They come to take our children away”．
Parents(with children under five)who suffer from illness，disability，addiction，poverty or other pressures receive visits from a trained volunteer one afternoon a week to support and advise them through period of crisis．Where possible the volunteer comes from a similar background to the people calling for help，or has personal experience of similar problems．
The effectiveness of Home-Start's longstanding programme has been proved by a number of research reports．One study of problem families assisted by Home-Start volunteers found：
·Nearly 40％ of surveyed mothers reported reduced depression．
·42％ of families reported improvements in managing their children．
·Child behavioral problems reduced by 50％．
Since ARK’s involvement this success has been recognized in the Government’s Green Paper Every Child Matters．The paper recommended enlarging the programme to ensure Home-Start services are available in every community in the UK．The Government has now provided￡5 million to help
Home-Start achieve this goal．
61．The main purpose of ARK’s work with Home-Start is to ______．
A．train volunteers to support problem families
B．build good relationship with the problem families
C．solve child and family problems at the beginning
D．save every problem child in place of social services
62．The underlined word “intractable”(in Paragraph 1)most probably means _____．
A．serious B．particular C．attractive D．sensitive
63．It can be inferred from the passage that __________．
A．the UK government can usually help problem families in time
B．social workers enjoy high popularity among problem families
C．the volunteers must share the same background with the people needing help
D．social service can’t satisfy the needs of problem families
64．In the UK，Home-Start services are now _______．
A．spread to every corner B．proved to be effective
C．thought of as a threat D．run by the government
C

Career building is an ongoing activity．Planning and goal setting are part of career building，but so is adjusting to and taking advantage of things that happen in all unplanned way．Our dreams and desires，as well as the opportunities open to us，are changing all the time．Sometimes，they can change quite dramatically over a short period of time．
Dealing with change often requires taking your career in a different direction．Therefore，most people’s career paths wind up looking more like a forest path or the course of a river than a straight flight path from point A to point B．Career paths tend to meander．Just as a river must take an indirect path to get around hills and other obstacles(障碍物)，we often have to do a little meandering to get around barriers．We also meander simply to explore various career possibilities．
This doesn’t mean that you should wander aimlessly for the rest of your life! It does mean that，although career building gives you an overall sense of direction，it's reasonable to expect that you’ll have to take some meandering along the way．
Career building involves maneuvering as well as meandering．To maneuver is to be focused and strategic(策略的)，to decide what you want and how you are going to get there．Believe it or not，you can maneuver and meander at the same time．In fact，you have probably already done so．For example，if you’ve ever sent in an application form for an education program or job before you are really sure you want your application to be accepted，you have taken action on a plan while you are still exploring other possibilities．In other words，you are maneuvering and meandering at the same time．
68．The passage is mainly to _______．
A．tell you how to gain more control over your life
B．give you a better understanding of yourself
C．show you how to take an active role in planning your career
D．help you to deal with things that happen in an unplanned way
69．The underlined word “meander”(in Paragraph 2)most probably means ______．
A．move away B．go round
C．get through D．run over
70．What can we learn from the passage?
A．There are seldom straight lines in the course of career building．
B．Career path is like a flight path from point A to point B．
C．Most of our dreams and desires change in a short time．
D．More than half of us have to change our career directions．
71．When you are hunting for a job，you are supposed to _______．
A．take your career in different directions
B．avoid exploring various career possibilities
C．change your dreams and desires now and then
D．know your goal andⅡy all possible ways to achieve it

Dams are classified by the type of material used in their construction and by their shape．Dams call be constructed from concrete，stone，loose rock，earth，wood，metal，or a combination of these materials．Engineers build dams of different types，depending on the conditions of the riverbed and the surrounding landshape ，and the construction materials．
Gravity dams use only the force of gravity to resist water pressure — that is，they hold back the water by the force of their weight pushing downward．They are much thicker at the base than the top —a shape that reflects the distribution(分布)of the forces of the water against the dam．As water becomes deeper，it puts more pressure on the dam．Gravity dams are relatively thin near the surface of the reservoir，where the water pressure is light．
An embankment dam is a gravity dam formed out of loose rock，earth，or a combination of
these materials．
Arch dams are concrete or stone structures that curve upstream into a reservoir，requiting a relatively narrow fiver canyon(峡谷)with solid rock walls able to support a large amount of force．These dams do not need to be as massive as gravity dams because the canyon walls carry part of the pressure from the reservoir．Because．they require less material than gravity dams，arch dams can be less expensive to build．
A buttress dam consists of a wall，or face，supported by several buttresses every 6 to 30 meters on the downstream side．Buttress dams are sometimes called hollow dams because the buttresses do not form a solid wall stretching across a fiver valley．It falls into two basic kinds：flat slab and multiple arches．Flat slab buttress dams have a flat upstream face．Multiple arch buttress dams have an upstream face formed by a series of arches．
Like arch dams，buttress dams require less concrete than gravity dams，but they are not necessarily less expensive to build than gravity dams．Costs with the work of forming the buttresses or multiple arches may offset(抵消)the savings in construction materials．Buttress dams may be desirable，however，in locations with foundations that would not easily support the massive size and weight of gravity dams．
72．Which of the following pictures best stands for gravity dams?
73．According to the passage，it generally costs less to build _______．
A．arch dams than gravity dams B．buttress dams than gravity dams
C．gravity dams than arch dams D．gravity dams than buttress dams
74．Which of the following would be preferred to build in places with foundations not strong enough?
A．Gravity dams． B．Arch dams．
C．Buttress dams． D．Embankment dams．
75．The best title for this passage would be _________．
A．Functions of Dams B．Constructions of Dams
C．Costs of Dams D．Types of Dams

My name is Isaac Evans．It’s a very ordinary name and you wouldn’t think it had a story to it，but I believe every name has a story to it．“Evans”is a very common Welsh name and I’m not sure exactly what it means，only that there are many“Evans”in Wales and all around Britain．
My grandfather was a farmer．He left his farm in northern Wales to look for work in
Manchester．There’s a lot of industry there．He experienced a lot of hardship all his life to provide a good future for his family and I’m grateful for that．
“Isaac” is a fairly common boy’s name．My parents are doctors and they named me after a famous violinist called Itzhak Perlman．Itzhak Perlman was born in Israel in 1945．Itzhak is an
Israeli name．The spelling is I-T—Z—H—A—K．Its pronunciation is similar to Isaac．My parents
admired Itzhak Perlman because he was a great musician and he wasn’t afraid to try out new ideas in his music．I don’t play a musical instrument．but I’m a painter and I often listen to Itzhak Perlman’s music when I paint．His music inspires me．
I love my name Isaac Evans, for it sounds musical and friendly．
