A
One winter evening, a storekeeper was going to close up his shop. Suddenly he saw Seth, a lazy, good – for – nothing fellow grasp a pound of fresh butter and hid it in his hat. No sooner had the storekeeper seen the act than he hit upon exactly the right revenge(报复). He would punish the thief, and satisfy his own appetite for fun.
Seth had his hat on his head, and the butter in his hat. He was anxious to leave. However, the rightful owner of the butter offered him a cup of hot drink, took him by the shoulders and planted him in a seat close to the stove. The grocer filled in the stove as many sticks of wood as he could. Seth already could feel the butter settling down closer to his hair, so he jumped up, declaring that he must go. “Sit down; don’t be in such a hurry,” replied the grocer, pushing him back into the chair again.
Streak after streak of the butter came pouring from under the poor man’s hat. The fun-loving grocer kept on putting wood into the stove. Then, as if surprised, he remarked, “You seem to be sweating as if you were warm! Let me put your hat away for you.”
“No! ” exclaimed poor Seth at last, unable to stand it a moment longer. “ No, I must go; let me out.” A greasy (油腻的) waterfall of butter was now pouring down the poor man’s face and neck, dipping into his clothes, and trickling down his body into his boots. He was bathed in oil from head to toe. Just as Seth rushed out of the door, the grocer said , “ I believe the fun I’ve had out of you is worth the money, so I shan’t charge you for that pound of butter in your hat.”
56.Why did Seth put the butter in his hat? A.Because he didn’t want to pay for it.
B.Because he just wanted to play a trick on the grocer. C.Because he wanted to revenge himself on the grocer.
D.Because he had nowhere to put the butter but in the hat.
57.What is not the action that the grocer took as a revenge? A.The grocer offered Seth a cup of hot drink. B.The grocer offered to take off Seth’s hat. C.The grocer overcharged Seth for the butter.
D.The grocer forced Seth to take a seat near the stove.
58.What was the purpose of the grocer’s hospitality(热情好客)? A.He wanted to be kind to him.
B.He wanted to sell more of his goods. C.He wanted to make friends with Seth
D.He wanted to take his revenge on Seth by making the butter in his hat melt. 59.What is the best title of the passage? A.Great Fun B.The Right Revenge C.A Fun-loving Grocer D.A Foolish Customer
B
London: It’s well known that Charles Darwin’s famous theory of evolution (进化) annoyed many people because it was against the Biblical view of creation. But few know that it also created problems for Darwin at home with his deeply religious wife, Emma.
“Darwin held back the publication of On the Origin of Species to avoid offending (触怒) his wife,” says Ruth Padel, the naturalist’s great – great – granddaughter. “Emma told him that he seemed to be putting God further and further off”, Padel says in her north London home. “But they talked it through, and Emma once said, ‘Don’t change any of your ideas for fear of hurting me.’”
As the world celebrates the 200 th birthday of the man who changed scientific thought forever
and the 150 th anniversary of his book today, even his opponents admitted he was a giant figure.
Though opposition to his theory continues, it is the elegant explanation of how species evolutes through natural selection that makes his 200th birthday such a major event.
More than 300 celebrations have been planned in Britain alone, where Darwin's face graces (使增光)the 10-pound bill along with that of Queen Elizabeth II.
Shrewsbury, the central England town where Darwin was born and raised, is holding a month-long festival for its most famous son. Down House, his former home near London, will hold a permanent exhibition recreating some of his most famous experiments.
Many more events have been planned all over the world.
What would he be doing if he were alive today? Padel thinks he would properly be studying DNA and the immune system.
60.The main purpose of the author is . A.to say something about Darwin and his wife
B.to introduce Charles Darwin and his theory of evolution C.to sing high praise for the book On the Origin of Species
D.to report some celebrations of Darwin’s 200 th birthday and the 150 th anniversary of
his books
61.Which of the statements is NOT true based on the passage? A.Everyone agrees with Darwin now. B.Darwin was brought up in Shrewsbury. C.Emma was not really fond of his theory.
D.Darwin was very interested in living things.
62.The underlined phrase “help back” in the second paragraph probably means . A.prevented from B.kept a secret C.cared about D.put off
C
When I opened my e – mail the other day, a pretty woman named Rachel appeared on my computer screen. She greeted me by name and started talking warmly. Every now and then she stopped to smile at me.She was reading to me an e-mail from my brother.It was very cool and lovely.
Rachel was there thanks to a new technology called Facemail. Facemail lets you send an e-mail that gets read to the receiver on line by an attractive male or female or by a clown(小丑).The software , which is free , can be downloaded at www.facemail.com. Facemail faces are lifelike , and they simulate(模仿)emotions based on emotions that you put in your text.
The company that develops the Facemail, is sure there will be broad uses in many fields.The reason why e-business is not popular, the company says, is that buying over the Internet lacks the human touch. But what if you went to the Nike website and Michael Jordan greeted you by name, waited on you and personally closed the sale ? And it is talking with Whirpool Company about using the technology in a computer screen on a fridge.Then if Mom can’t be home when the kids get back from school , she can leave a note with voice and image telling them what there is to eat.
Facemail could get hot fast.Personally , I’m a fan. Facemail is lively and funny at first , but if you select the clown , put a few rude words in an e-mail and add some angry emotions, you’ve got a crazy mail.
63.The main advantage of Facemail is that . A.the e-mail can be read in a more lovely way
B.you can talk with the person who sends you the e-mail
C.you can put your own emotions in the e-mail as you like D.you can write an e – mail to anyone
64.We can infer from the passage that Facemail . A.is a software hard to download
B.will take the place of the e-mail system C.can destroy your e-mail if not properly used
D.is likely to be used in other ways in our daily life and work
65.The writer mentioned Nike website and Michael Jordan to show that . A.Michael Jordan will serve you himself on Nike website
B.famous people like Michael Jordan also like to use Facemail C.Facemail can make shopping on the Internet more interesting D.Nike company is increasing its sales through the fame of Jordan

请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。 注意:每空格1个单词。请将答案写在答题纸(卡)上相应题号的横线上
As the Internet has become widely used, the online bookstore has gained much popularity with consumers, which have a vital influence on the survival of many private small—and medium—sized physical bookshops, a cultural landmark in the cities in China.
Apart from a campaign, “saving physical stores”, many Chinese politicians and scholars have also urged the government to adopt measures to prevent bookstores from closing down their businesses, because unlike shops selling other goods, physical bookstores play the important social role of passing down knowledge and culture to younger generations.
Besides tax cut, the government should also take other measures to support and encourage the development of such bookstores.
Online bookshops are popular because they offer customers easier access to books, more attractive prices, and delivery service. Readers can buy almost any book sitting at home. Physical bookstores have actually become “the exhibition halls” of online bookstores. People read and select books in physical bookstores, and then buy them from online bookstores.
However, physical bookstores have their own advantages. The physical bookstores make people feel the existence of culture. Entering a bookstore is like absorbing various elements of culture. For example, they offer the choice of feeling a real book rather than just the chance to see the cover and read a few introductory lines.
But they can also offer lower prices, sales promotions and better service, and organize readers’ club and other activities to attract more booklovers. A citywide delivery service could make it more convenient for readers to buy books from them. Moreover, the physical bookstores can make use of new technologies to improve their services, develop their online sales and expand their business.

In the picture, a man is smoking heavily in a factory. On the wall ha sees a sign which means “No smoking”. But he finds that the factory is giving off large quantities of heavy smoke which makes him feel very puzzled, “Why does the factory forbid people to smoke while the factory itself gives off so much poisonous smoke?”
Nowadays, many factories know the danger of smoking and don’t allow people to smoke in the factory. However, they don’t pay any attention to the anger that they cause to the whole society. And they let out lots of polluted smoke and the smoke does great harm to our health and our environment.”
In my opinion, we should take good care of natural environment! Something must be done to prevent the pollution caused by us!
