　　Ⅲ.阅读理解

　　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 rent. With the same money, one can get a little 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 walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) 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.

　　1．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 who work in London prefer to live inside London.

　　D．Because of certain advantages of living outside London, many people who work in London prefer to live outside London.

　　【答案与解析】　B　推断题。根据文章内容：虽然有很多喜欢乡村生活，但文章最后讲道也有些人喜欢城市生活，从而可推知此题答案为B项。

　　2．One can use the same money for ________ to buy a little house with a garden in the country.

　　A. getting a small flat with a garden

　　B．having a small flat with a garden

　　C．renting a small flat without a garden

　　D．buying a small flat without a garden

　　【答案与解析】　C　细节题。根据文章第2段第2、3句可推知此题答案为C项。

　　3．When the flowers and vegetables in the garden come up, those ________ have the reward of one who has shared the secret of nature.

　　A．who 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

　　【答案与解析】　B　推断题。根据文章第3段最后两句可知：要是他喜欢花园，在花园里挖土、种植、浇水等等，那么当鲜花和蔬菜生长起来的时候，他就得到了与大自然分享秘密的奖赏，所以选B项。

　　4．People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that ________ if they had to live it outside London.

　　A．their life was meaningless

　　B.their life was invaluable

　　C．they didn't deserve a happy life

　　D.they were not worthy of their happy life

　　【答案与解析】　A　推断题。根据文章最后一段第2句“Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London”可推知此题答案为A项 。

　　5．The underlined word “rest” in the last paragraph refers to ________.

　　A．the rest time

　　B．the rest people

　　C．the rest of the country

　　D．the rest of the parks and of the sea

　　【答案与解析】　C　推断题。根据其上文：这些人偶尔去公园散散步后去海边度两周假；本句接着说：其余的就留给那些每天晚上喜欢离开伦敦的人吧，那么，“其余的”显然指“其余的乡村”。从而可推知题答案为C项。

　　Ⅳ.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

　　__1__ There are many reasons that support this point of view, but today I want to concentrate on three reasons.

　　Firstly, smoking is harmful for non－smokers. __2__ Obviously, if people smoke in public places, non－smokers have no choice but to become secondhand smokers. Don't non－smokers have the right to choose not to be secondhand smokers?

　　Lastly, smokers have other ways to receive nicotine. Nowadays, we have many ways to receive nicotine, such as nicotine gum and nicotine patches. __4__ Do you really want people to smoke in public places instead of using

　　these new products?

　　__5__ And I also think that maybe this is the time for people to quit smoking. Banning smoking is not just for us, but for this world and for everyone who has to live in this world after us.

　　Most of us today recognize that environmental pollution has been a greatly serious problem. Lots of plants, trees and crops are destroyed by bad air. Thousands of people die from eating poisoned food or breathing in gas. Environmental pollution brings death not only to human beings, but also to wild life. From the above, we can find that the reasons why environment is polluted more and more seriously are as follows.The first reason, I think, is that harmful substances are put into the environment. For example, to prevent insects, farmers make use of great amounts of poisons. However, they pollute air, water and land.The second reason is the gas coming from the car engines and factories also make environment polluted badly. The third reason actually is the result of a growing population in the world. Every day, so much litter and waste are poured out from houses and they also pollute the environment. Therefore, it's high time that more effective measures should be taken. New laws should be passed to limit the amount of pollutants from factories. Moreover, let's make our good efforts, and the world will be a safer place to live in for us.
