The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right， as Harry soon discovered. There was no sailing on May 22nd. How could he have made such a careless mistake?

“I’m four， the child said proudly. “I’ll be four and a half.

Harry turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket， Madam， he said. “But you didn’t get one for your daughter， did you?

“Er， well— the woman looked at the child. “I mean… she hasn’t started school yet. She’s only four.

“A four-year-old child must have a ticket， Madam. A child’s return ticket to Jersey costs …let me see…￡13.50. So if the railway pays your hotel， you will owe ￡1.50. The law is the law， but since the fault was mine…

Today， roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago， it wasn‘t easy at all. Before 1750， the idea of skating didn‘t exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin.

Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally， he decided to put two wheels under each other. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.

On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly， he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror， breaking to pieces. Nobody forgot Merlin‘s grand entrance for a long time!

In many developed countries， especially in the United States， racism(种族主义) was widespread in the early part of the twentieth century. Many African Americans were not given equal opportunities in education or employment. Marian Anderson (1897～1993) was an African American woman who gained fame as a concert singer in this climate of racism. She was born in Philadelphia and sang in church choirs during her childhood. When she applied for admission to a local music school in 1917， she was turned down because she was black. Unable to attend music school， she began her career as a singer for church gatherings. In 1929， she went to Europe to study voice and spent several years performing there. Her voice was widely praised throughout Europe. Then she returned to the US in 1935 and became a top concert singer after performing at Town Hall in New York City.

Racism again affected Anderson in 1939. When it was arranged for her to sing at Constitution Hall in Washington， DC， the Daughters of the American Revolution opposed it because of her color. She sang instead at the Lincoln Memorial for over 75， 000 people. In 1955， Anderson became the first black soloist to sing in the Metropolitan Opera of New York City. The famous conductor Toscanini praised her voice as “heard only once in a hundred years. She was a US delegate to the United Nations in 1958 and won the UN peace prize in 1977

 

 

. Anderson eventually triumphed over racism.

64.According to this passage， what did Marian Anderson do between 1917 and 1929?

A.She studied at a music school.　　B.She sang at Town Hall in New York.

C. She sang for religious activities.　　D.She studied voice in Europe.

65.Toscanini thought that Marian Anderson ________.

A.was seldom heard by people　　B.sang occasionally in public

C.sang only once in many years　　D.had a very rare voice

66.Anderson‘s beautiful voice was first recognized ________.

A.at the Lincoln Memorial　　B.in Europe

C.in Washington， DC　　D.at the United Nations

67.This passage shows that Anderson finally defeated racism in the US by ________.

A.protesting(抗议) to the government

Wind， water， fire and ice—these powerful natural forces have shaped the land of America in the past. They are still changing it today.

The Colorado River slowly cut down through stone to make the Grand Canyon (大峡谷).

Long ago， ice sheets cut Yosemite Valley and the Great Lakes， and glaciers (冰川) are still on the move in Alaska.

Wind and rain storm hit the land from time to time. Fires sometimes burn down forests and destroy the homes of wild animals: This happened in YellowstonePark in 1988.

Dead volcanic (火山的) mountains such as Haleakala on Maui and Carter Lakein Oregon are beautiful to look at. But there are several active volcanoes in the US，especially along the Pacific Coast. There are also many earthquakes in this area. Scientists can do nothing to control earthquakes or volcanoes. This was shown clearly on May 18， 1980. At 8:32 that morning， Mount St Helens in Washington state broke out. The top of the mountain was blown off.

Over 60 people—campers， scientists， journalists， forest workers—were killed. Hundreds of square miles of forests were knocked down. In towns over 100 miles away， day suddenly became night. An ash cloud hid the sun for many hours. Towns and fields in Washington， Oregon， and Idaho were covered with dirty gray ash.

Scientists knew that Mr St Helens might erupt (爆发) soon. But no one could say when. And no one expected the terrible strength of the eruption. Many people were surprised and unready. Harry R. Truman， 84， owned a small hotel in Mt St Helens. Scientists had asked people to move away because the volcano was becoming dangerous.

But Harry Truman would not leave his home. Now it is covered with many feet of dirty ash. A small cross stands above the place where Harry probably died. Perhaps it is better that he did not see the destruction of Mt St Helens， the once beautiful lake， and the forests.

But slowly， life is returning to the dead area around the mountain. Grass and small plants are beginning to grow again. Deer and birds have been seen. The land will never be the same as it once was. Perhaps Mt St Helens will erupt again. But this is all part of nature‘s pattern of change， and man has little power to control it.

68.Which would be the best title for the passage?

A.The Power of Nature

B.Volcano‘s Beauty and Danger

C.Wind， Water， Fire and Ice

D.Natural Force Shapes Beautiful Land for America

69.After the eruption of volcano， what makes the sky turn dark?

A.The smoke.　　B.The clouds.　　C.The ash.　　D.The fog.

70.The underlined word “it means ________.

A.the body of old Harry　　B.the opening on top of Mt St Helens

C.the location of Harry‘s home　　D.the place where Harry probably died

W: Do you go to school by bus?

M:No， never. I usually go on my bike. But if it rains， my father drives me there.

W: I usually go by bus， but sometimes when there’s heavy traffic， I will take the subway.

(Text2)

W: Would you like to visit Alice with me after school? She’s been sick for two days.

M: Well， I’d have to bring my little sister， Mary.

W: That’s no problem.

(Text3)

W: Do you really need to leave now? It’s still early.

M: Thank you， but I’ve got to get up early tomorrow morning. I had a wonderful time tonight， though.

W: Me， too. Be sure to give my best wishes to your wife.

(Text4)

M: Why are you going to Boston?

W: I’m going th

 

 

ere to see my grandparents. My parents and I don’t live with them， so they sometimes get lonely. I usually visit them twice a year.

(Text5)

W: Don’t be upset. Nobody is perfect. E

 

 

verybody makes mistakes. Mistakes can even make you do things better when you learn from them.

M: Thank you very much for trying to make me feel

 

 

better. You’re so nice.

(Text6)

W: Wow， what a nice bike!

M: Thank you. I just bought it.

W: Why did you get it?

M: Riding a bike is better than driving a car in this city.

W: That is a good point. How much was it?

M: $ 80 . They are selling them down the street three blocks away.

W: 80 bucks， huh? That’s not very expensive.

M: Yeah， I think it’s a good investment. It will save me a lot of money on gas， too.

W: That’s great. Well， I have to go to work. See you later.

(Text7)

W: Good afternoon， sir. Can I help you?

M: Yes. I have reserved a double room here.

W: What’s your name， please?

M: My name is Neil Brown.

W: Okay， just a second， please. Yes. A double room for three nights.

M: That’s right. Is the room ready?

W: Yes， it’s ready. How will you be paying for the room， sir?

M: With my credit card.

W: Very good， sir. If I could have your card for a moment… Here’s the key. Your room number is 309.

W: I’m lost! Is this the way to the ChinaInternationalTradeCenter? I’m going to see my sister who lives nearby. Can you help me?

M: Cert

 

 

ainly. Walk down this street through the first intersection， and then turn left at the second corner. You will see the No. 3 bus stop on your left. That bus will take you right there.

W: Is that the quickest way?

M: That is probably the quickest and cheapest way to get there from here.

W: Is it possible to get a bus right from here?

M: I’m afraid there aren’t any direct buses from here. Even though there are stops at almost every block， the buses here do not go in that direction. You would have to change buses at least twice.

W: All right. Thank you.

M: You’re welcome. By the way， I suggest that you take the subway next time. It might be more expensive than the bus， but it is certainly the easiest way to get around this city.

(Text 9)

M: Can I help you?

W: Yes， please. Could you show me that overcoat displayed on the shelf?

M: Sure. It’s the latest fashion and the design comes in five colors and all sizes. I think you should try the purple one. It’s a beautiful color and it would look great on you. The fitting room is over there.

W: Thank you… well， it feels a little tight in the waist. Do you have this in a larger size?

M: Of course， try this one on … oh， it’s beautiful! It looks as if it were made for you. It is only 880 yuan.

W: Oh， dear， that’s too expensive.

M: Madam， look at the quality and the style. It’s worth the price.

W: How about 400 yuan?

M: You must be joking. No one would sell such a nice overcoat at such a low price.

W: But 880 yuan is a lot more than I wanted to pay. Can you give me a

 

 

better price?

M: Well， it’s already a bargain， but if you really like it， I suppose I could let you have it for 600 yuan. But this is my lowest price.

W: OK. I’ll take it.

Dave Carter is my best friend. We met when we were five years old because our parents were friends and we went to the same school. He works in a different city now， so I only see him on weekends and during the holidays. He’s important to me because he knows me so well. We laugh a lot together and we enjoy the same things: football， going to bars… the usual staff. When I’m feeling down or when I need to talk to somebody， I can always call him. Recently， I was in trouble with my girlfriend and he was a big help—he’s really good listener. He just let me speak my mind while he listened. But he isn’t perfect! He’s always late and

 

 

he never apologizes! The last time I saw him was last weekend. We arranged to meet at four o’clock to play football， and he arrived at half past six! It was nearly dark! Oh， well， nobody’s perfect， right? He’s still a really good friend.
