　　I fell in love with England because it was quaint(古雅)—all those little houses, looking terribly old-fashioned but nice, like dolls' houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved Lon don . I've slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it's an ugly town now.

　　Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen., fair play, and good manners. The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners—people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.

　　I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. Your're forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub, and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.

　　As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p.m. I used to use it, but now I'm afraid.

　　The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that's typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbor who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.

1．The writer doesn't like London because she ________ .

[　　]

A．is not used to the life there now

B．has lived there for seventeen years

C．prefers to live in an old-fashioned house

D．has to be polite to everyone she meets there

2．Where do people usually meet their friends in England?

[　　]

A．In a cafe.

B．In a restaurant.

C．In a nightclub.

D．In a pub.

3．The underlined part “it” (in Para. 4 )refers to ________ .

[　　]

A．a taxi

B．the money

C．a bomb

D．public transport

4．The writer took her neighbor to France for Christmas because he ________ .

[　　]

A．felt lonely in England

B．had never been to France

C．was from a typical French family

D．didn't like the British idea of family

　　Destructive insects in larger numbers are finding Alaska forests to be a comfortable home and climate change could be the wel-come mat.

　　Warmer winters kill fewer insects. Lon-ger, warmer summers let insects complete a life cycle and reproduce in one year instead of two. Warm winters also can damage trees and make them less able to stop insect attacks by changing the nature of snow. Instead of light snow formed at extremely cold tempera-tures, warm winters produce wet, heavy snow more likely to break the tops of spruce trees because they are not well adapted to handling big, heavy, wet snow loads.

　　Since 1980, spruce bark (樹皮) beetles have killed mature white spruce trees on 4. 4 million acres. For lack of two cold winters on end, the numbers of the beetles there blew up while the resistance (抵抗力) of the trees was down at the same time everywhere. Most of the mature trees have been killed in some whole region of the state.

　　Spruce bark beetles bore into (蛀穿)trunks and feed on the live cambium layer, a thin part of tissue between bark and wood. Trees re-sist beetles with pitch, made up of hydrocarbons including up to 17 forms of terpene (松稀). The rates of those terpenes are a signal of the health of the tree. When a tree is injured, terpene rates go off in one direction.

　　Using complex chemical receptors (感受 器), spruce bark beetles discover differences in terpenes. Injured trees offer less resistance.

　　They smell the tree. If the tree's healthy,they try to avoid it Why? If they start to bore into a healthy tree, it's got a lot of pitch, and the pitch is under high pressure. It's boring in and the pitch is pushing it back out.

(1) What would be the best title for the text?

[　　]

A．The Destruction of Forests in Alaska

B．Warm Winters and Its Bad Effects

C．The Way of Spruce Trees' Living in Alaska

D．Destructive Insects on Rise in Alaska

(2) According to the text, how do warm win-ters reduce the trees' ability to resist in-sect attacks?

[　　]

A．By changing the nature of snow.

B．By offering too much water to trees.

C．By making the weather drier.

D．By increasing the insects' growth speed.

(3) The third paragraph mainly tells________.

[　　]

A．winters are warmer and warmer

B．there are more and more beetles

C．the situation of trees is much worse

D．mature trees are easy to be attacked

　　A structure thought to be the world's oldest building has been discovered under the sea off the coast of Japan, and could be evidence of a previously unknown Stone Age civilization．

　　The monument dates back to at least 8,000 BC; the oldest pyramid in Egypt was constructed more than 5,000 years later．

　　The structure was first discovered under 75 feet of water by divers in 2000, and was believed to be a natural phenomenon．

　　Professor Masaki Kimura, the first to study the site, has concluded that the structure is man-made．"The object was not formed naturally．If that had been the case, we would have found pieces through erosion(腐蝕)around the site, but there is nothing there," he says．

　　The discovery of a road surrounding the building is further evidence that the structure was made by humans, along with small underwater stone tombs nearby．

　　Kimura says it is too early to know who built it or its purpose．"It might be an ancient religious shrine(神社), possibly celebrating an ancient god．And it could be evidence of a new culture, since there are no records of a people intelligent enough to have built such a monument 10,000 years ago; it could only have been done by people with a high degree of technology, probably coming from the Asian continent, where the oldest civilizations originated．"

　　Teruaki Ishii, a professor at Tokyo University, said the structure could be natural, but that part of it may have been made by humans．

　　The first signs of civilization in Japan date back to around 9,000 BC, but nothing in the archeological record suggests the presence of a culture advanced enough to have built such a structure．

　　Jim Mower, an archeologist at University College Lon-don, says, "If it's proved that the site is as old as 10,000 years and is man-made, then it's going to change an awful lot of the previous thinking on southeast Asian history．It would put the people who made the monument on equal terms with the ancient civilization of Mesopotamia(An an-cient region of southwest Asia)．"

Adults usually do not remember most of the things that are taught by their teachers at school. But this story is one such lesson that I will never forget. Every time I drift off course, I think of this story.

       It was a normal Monday morning, and my teacher was teaching us on important things in life and about devoting ourselves to what is important to us. This is how the story went:

       An old man lived in a certain part of London, and he would wake up every morning and go to the sub-way. He would get onto the train right to Central Lon-don, and then sit at the street corner and beg. He would do this every single day of his life. He sat at the same street corner and begged for almost 20 years.

       His house was dirty, and a stench (惡臭) came out of the house and it smelled terrible. The neighbors could not stand the smell any more, so they called for the police officers to clear the place. The officers knocked down the door and cleaned the house. There were small bags of money all over the house that he had collected over the years.

       The police counted the money, and they soon realized that the old man was a millionaire (百萬富翁). They waited outside his house expecting to share the good news with him. When the old man arrived home that evening, one of the officers told him that there was no need for him to beg any more as he was a rich man now, a millionaire.

       But the old man said nothing at all; he went into his house and locked the door. The next morning he woke up as usual, went to the subway, sat at the street corner and continued to beg.

       Clearly, this old man had no great plans, dreams or anything significant (有意義的) for his life. We learn nothing from this story other than staying focused on the things we enjoy doing.

The underlined part in the first paragraph may mean ______.

A. I get tired of learning my subjects    B. I fail to listen to lessons attentively

C. I go in the wrong direction of life    D. I wouldn’t like to go to school

The neighbor called the police because ______.

A. the old man kept begging money from them every day

B. there was something dangerous in the old man’s house

C. the old man wouldn’t buy tickets for the train

D. they couldn’t bear the smell from the old man’s house

When the old man knew he was a millionaire, he ______.

A. remained calm        B. became excited   C. felt worried         D. became nervous

What lesson do we learn from the story?

A. Make great plans for your life.     B. Keep on doing what you like.

C. Do something that is good to society.  D. Depend on yourself rather than others.

The earliest surviving Jane Austen's manuscript (手稿），a handwritten draft for a book with the name of The Watsons that was never published ，sold for 993，250 pounds in the Lon- don sale.

The sale of The Watsons draft has provided a chance to have a deep understanding of how the author wrote it and her reworkings on it, which this manuscript uniquely displays. Probably written in 1804, the novel tells the story of Emma Watson, the youngest of four sisters who is raised by a wealthy aunt but then forced to return to her family while two of her sisters search for husbands.

The novel is only a quarter complete but critic Margaret Drabble described it as “a delightful and highly complete novel, which must surely have proved the equal of her other six novels, had she finished it. ”

The Watsons contains themes found in other Austen's works and also displays her wisdom. The Watsons displays Jane Austen's unique writing style and the influence of this novel on her later works can clearly be seen. It was Austen's only literary work during the period between finishing Northanger Abbey in 1799 and starting Mansfield Park in 1811. It is not known why Austen abandoned the manuscript, though it was possibly related to her father's death in 1805.

Besides the sale of The Watsons in the London sale, the earliest rules of soccer, part of the archive (檔案)of the oldest football club in the world, Sheffield FC, sold for 881,250 pounds, which attracted many people.

The Sheffield soccer sale included handwritten drafts from 1858 and the only existing copy of the printed "Rules, Regulations Laws of the Sheffield Football Club” dating from 1859, two years after the club was formed.

64. According to the text, the value of the sale of The Watsons draft lies in ____.

A. making more readers interested in the novel

B making readers know the author's writing process

C. making readers know the author's sad life better

D. making readers know the story of the novel better

65. It can be inferred from what Margaret Drabble said that ____.

A. most of the novel, The Watsons, had been finished

B. Austen wrote seven novels at the same time

C. Austen's father's death made her give up completing The Watsons

D. it is a pity that The Watsons was not finished

66.　 Which is TRUE about The Watsons?

A. It was Austen's first novel.

B. It was Austen's only literary work.

C. The writing style in it influenced that in Northanger Abbey.

D. It has similar themes to other Austen's works.

67.　 What character do the two sales share in common?

A. Both of them have handwritten drafts.

B. Both of them date back to the 18th century.

C. Both of them were widely read at the same time.

D. Both of them told us the reason for writing them.
