     People who travel long distances will have to decide whether they would prefer to go by land,
sea or air.Maybe nobody would say they enjoy sitting in a train for more than a few hours. The
train will soon get crowded and dirty. It is almost impossible to take your mind off the joumey.
Reading may help you to kill time but soon the clicking on the rails will bring you to sleep. During
the day,sleep never lasts long. At night,when you really wish to go to sleep,you find you can hardly
manage to do so. If you are lucky to get a sleeping seat,you spend half the night looking at the small
blue light over your head,and when you finally arrive at the station,you are
so tired that you don't want to leave.
     Long car joumeys are even less pleasant,for it is impossible even to read. On motorways, you
can, at least,travel fairly safely at high speeds,but more often,the greater part of the joumey is spent
on narrow,bumpy (崎嶇不平的)  roads which are crowded with traffic.
     When travelling by sea,you have a different expe- rience. You can have a walk.on the board,
play games, swim,meet interesting people and enjoy good food,and of course,only when the sea is
calm. If it is not,you are likely to get seasick (暈船的) , and you will find no joumey can be worse
than that. Even if you travel in good weather,sea joumeys take a long time. Few people
would like to spend a third of their holidays for the pleasure of travelling on a ship.
      Travelling by plane seems to be dangerous to some people,and,it is also the most expensive of
all travelling forms,though nothing can match planes for speed and comfort(舒服). Flying at a height
of 30 000 feet, far above the clouds,and at 500 miles an hour is a very exciting experience. The
joumey is  so  smooth(平穩(wěn)的 )that there is nothing to prevent you from reading or sleeping.
However you decide to spend your time,one thing is certain:you will arrive at your destination fresh
and easy. You will not have to spend the next few days recovering(恢復(fù))from a long and tiring journey.
1. From the passage we can know that travelling by train              .
A.is the most comfortable for passengers
B.is so slow and dirty that no one wants to take a train
C. seems to be very tiring and usually takes a long time
D. will keep you awake all the time
2. What prevents people from travelling by plane?  
A. Planes can be very dangerous.
B. You will feel sorry after travelling by air.
C. Flying so high brings no comfori.
D. Air travelling takes a long time.

3.In the writer's opinion,             .     

A. you should never travel by train
B. travelling by air is the most comfortable
C. travelling by sea is the best form
D. car travelling is comfortable

         Born in London in 1815, Ada Lovelace was the daughter of Annabella Millbanke and the British poet Lord
    Byron. Her parents separated just a month after she was born. Less than a year later, Lord Byron went abroad
    and never returned ( he died in Greece in 1824). Ada never knew her father and was raised by her mother. Her mother had mathematical training and insisted that Ada, who was educated privately, study mathematics too.
    Ada did well not only in mathematics and science, but also in music and PE.
         In 1833, Ada met Charles Babbage, a famous English mathematician. He was known as the inventor of a
    calculating machine called the Difference Engine. They became good friends and began to write to each other
     on the topics of mathematics, logic, and many other subjects.
         Babbage had made plans in 1834 for a new kind of calculating machine ( although the Difference Engine
    was not finished),an Analytical Engine. Few people in England would support him with his first machine
    unfinished. But he found support for his new calculating machine abroad. In 1842, an Italian mathematician,
    Louis Menabrea, published a paper in French on the subject of the Analytical Engine. Babbage asked Ada to
    translate the paper.
         When she showed Babbage her translation he suggested that she add her own notes, which turned out to be
    three times as long as Menabrea' s. The notes are the source of her enduring fame (不朽的聲譽(yù) ). In her notes, Ada predicted (預(yù)言 )that such a machine might be used to write music, to draw pictures, and would be used
    for both practical and scientific use. She was correct.
         After she wrote the description of Babbage' s Analytical Engine,her life was plagued (折磨) with illnesses.
    In 1852, she died of cancer and was buried beside her father at Newstead Abbey in Nottinghamshire, England.
         In 1980, 165 years after Ada' s birth, the US Defense Department announced a powerful new computer
    language. They named it Ada in honor of Ada Lovelace' s important role in the history of computing.
    1. It seemed that Ada' s mother _____.
    A. had little money to educate Ada at home
    B. wanted Ada to be a great musician
    C. didn't wish Ada to be a poet like her father
    D. didn't think Ada was a clever girl
    2. Babbage didn' t find support for his Analytical Engine in Britain because _____.
    A. his first calculating machine was not finished
    B. no one thought the machine would be useful
    C. he had moved to Italy and settled there
    D. most of his inventions proved useless
    3. Menabrea' s paper on Babbage' s Analytical Engine was written in _____.
    A. English
    B. Italian
    C. German
    D. French
    4. What do we learn about Ada from the passage?
    A. She was remembered as a great translator.
    B. Her predictions have come true.
    C. Her notes were written in computer language.
    D. She led a long and fruitful life.

    閱讀理解。
         When I was in my fourth year of teaching, I was also (and am still) a high school track and field coach
    (田徑教練). One year, I had a student, John, who entered my class when he was a junior (三年級(jí)學(xué)生).
    John changed to our school from Greece, and seemed to be interested in sports, so I encouraged him to join
    our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he
    could do well in any event, and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him. He accepted
    the offer, and began to work hard at every practice.
         About a month later, I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player, winning
    various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking, "John, I really appreciate that you came out
    for the track team, but why didn't you play tennis instead? It seems that would interest you a lot more, since
    you're so good at it."
         John answered, "Well, I like tennis, but you told me that you believed in me, and that you thought I could
    do well in track, so I wanted to try it for that reason."
         From then on, I often remember my student's reply. I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down
    to share somewhere with more teachers. No matter how critical (不滿的) students can be of them-selves,
    I've found that a simple "I trust that you can do it!" can go a long way!
    1. According to Paragraph 1, the author seems to think more about John's _____.
    [     ]
    A. PE marks
    B. self-confidence
    C. interest in sports
    D. state of health
    2. Why did John take part in the track team?
    [     ]
    A. He had been an excellent runner.
    B. He was encouraged by his teacher.
    C. He liked running more than tennis.
    D. He had no tennis coach to train him.
    3. The purpose of this passage is probably _____.
    [     ]
    A. to build a close teacher-student relationship
    B. to introduce a new way of sports training
    C. to explain the value of sports and games
    D. to show the importance of encouragement
    4. The passage is mainly written for _____.
    [     ]
    A. teachers
    B. parents
    C. students
    D. players

         I was small for my age. I was shy and sometimes it was hard for me to make friends with others.
    However, learning came fairly easy for me. I was the best in most of my classes, but PE class was my
    nightmare (惡夢(mèng)) and made me feel that I was not as good as the others. Miss Forsythe was our PE
    teacher. She was young and energetic. Everyone liked her. She said that we all had to come to her classes.
    No one could hide from Miss Forsythe!
         One day she told me that she wanted me to play a game with another girl in a PE show. I was rather
    worried that I wouldn't do a good job as she explained her idea, but she was excited. With her encouragement,
    I had no choice but to agree.
         It was a "boy meets girl" game. I played the boy and my classmate, Margaret Ann, played the girl. We
    were dressed in evening clothes and danced around the floor. According to Miss Forsythe, I had to pick up
    Margaret Ann as we finished the dance. Since I was not strong enough to pick the tallest girl up, it was she
    who picked me up. I suddenly felt ten feet tall! It was a huge success and everybody applauded (鼓掌) for
    our excellent performance. What a wonderful ending! Afterwards, I smiled confidently (自信地).
         Miss Forsythe's understanding and willingness to create a place for me in her show (which certainly did
    not need me) gave me some much needed confidence. She was and always will be my favorite teacher.
    1. What do we know about Miss Forsythe?
    [     ]
    A. She was good at dancing.
    B. She was a strict and understanding teacher.
    C. She liked to play games with the students after class.
    D. She was a teacher who taught students how to dance.
    2. How did the author feel about the game at first?
    [     ]
    A. She was excited.
    B. She thought it would be fun.
    C. She was disappointed.
    D. She was nervous.
    3. According to the passage, the most exciting part of the game was when the author _____.
    [     ]
    A. was dressed in the evening clothes
    B. acted as a boy
    C. danced around the floor
    D. was held up by her classmate
    4. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.
    [     ]
    A. Miss Forsythe had planned the game that way on purpose (故意地)
    B. Miss Forsythe helped the author pick up the tallest girl
    C. the author was afraid when she felt ten feet tall
    D. the author lost confidence by dancing with her Classmate
    5. What is the best title for the passage?
    [     ]
    A. Our PE Teacher -Miss Forsythe
    B. My School Life
    C. My Nightmare-PE Classes
    D. A Game with My Classmate

           When six the very best students from different cities in Guangdong Province all together
    chose universities in Hong Kong; when the very best student of Beijing picked up HK
    University while giving up the nearby Pe king or Tsinghua University; when the highest enroll
    ment(錄取) rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48: 1 ,it's the high
    time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is.
           Years ago,the answer certainly would be"Peking or Tsinghua University". But now no one
    could give the exact reaction without hesitation. The only sure thing is that HK universities have
    gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students.
            It's no doubt to call this HK craze(狂熱) ,which is even out of the expectation of those
    HK universities themselves.
           How can HK universities shake the steady founda tions of Peking and Tsinghua and attract
    so many mainland students?
           First, Hong Kong universities offer large amount scholarship,especially for the top students
    who can receive the sum scholarship as much as 400 000 HK dollars. Since higher education
    has become a kind of heavy burden of many families,it's easy to understand why the reaction to
    the generous offering of HK universities is great.
           Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and
    carry out bilingual(雙語的)  education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is an other
    attraction for mainland students.
          Further more,university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as
    exchange  students.
          Can mainland top universities like Peking or Tsinghua University be calm as before when
    facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the
    top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it.
        The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement
    of education in Cluna.After the awakerung and action taking of main-
    land universities,they can perform better together with HK universities.
          At least,it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees (學(xué)費(fèi))  are among students' top
    concem when they are choosing universities. It's time to move.
    1. What is the passage mainly talking about? 
    A. Some thought brought by the enrollment of HK umversities.
    B. Higher education in Hong Kong.
    C.The competition between HK University and Peking University.
    D. The fatal of mainland universities.
    2.Top students from mainland apply for HK universities because              .     
    A. many students now would love to study aboard to get a better experience
    B. they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities
    C. HK universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further
    study
    D. Peking university has lost its worldwide reputation.
    3. What is the author's attitude toward the competition brought by HK universities?      
    A. The govemment should take relevant measures to stop this unfair competition.
    B. Mainland universities had better tower their tuition fees and win back the top students.
    C. Universities both in mainland and in HK would get an entire improvement during the competition.
    D.lt may probably cause a complete loss to both sides in the end.
    4. From the passage we can see HK universities                 .
    A. didn't mean to enroll top students from mainland
    B. didn't expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popular
    C. have strict enrollment rules and only l out of 48 students can get the chance to study there
    D. are proud of their teaching staff and facilities
    5. What does the author mean by saying "It's time to move" in the last paragraph?  
    A. Mainland universities should take measures as soon as possible to attract students.
    B. The opportunities come for top students to study abroad.
    C. Mainland universities should make full preparations to challenge HK universities.
    D. Top students should be offered further education free of charge.
