museum of dentistry. it is at the university of maryland in baltimore. that is where the first college in the world to train dentists began. the museum tells about the history of the medical treatment of teeth. visitors can see some frightening devices that once were used to remove infected (受感染的) teeth. they also can see sets of teeth made of animal bone. they were made for a famous american - the first president, george washington. most people do not consider a visit to the dentist their idea of a good time. however, the director of the museum says he wanted to make the museum a fun place to visit. he says he also wants to teach visitors about the importance of taking care of their teeth. another museum collects devices that help people hear. the kenneth w. berger hearing aid museum is at kent state university in kent, ohio. the museum has more than three-thousand hearing aids from around the world. they include old and strange devices. some hearing aids were made to look like other objects. that is because in the past many people did not want anyone to know they were wearing a hearing aid. 8. it is common for people to think it uneasy to pay a visit to _. a. the university of

fight with their fists. but soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. and so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞擊) through a wind and falls thirty feet to the ground below. he is dead！of course he isnt really dead. with any luck he isnt even hurt. why? because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars or even catch fire, are professionals. they do this for a living. these men are called stuntmen. that is to say, they perform tricks. there are two sides to their work. they actually do most of the things you see on the screen. for example, they fall from a high building. however, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床墊). again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! but although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. often a stuntman s success depends on careful timing. for example, when he is blown up in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment. naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. they often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. a norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (懸崖) a thousand feet high. his parachute (降落傘) failed to open, and he was killed. in spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. for nowadays there are stuntgirls too. 12. stuntmen are those who _. a. often dress up as actors b. prefer to lead dangerous lives c. often perform seemingly dangerous actions d. often fight each other for their lives 13. stuntmen earn their living by _. a. playing their dirty tricks b. selling their special skills c. jumping out of high windows d. jumping from fast moving trains 14. which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance? a. strength. b. exactness. c. speed. d. carefulness. 15. what can be inferred from the author s example of the norwegian stuntman? a. sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman. b the percentage of serious accidents is high. c. parachutes must be of good quality. d. the cliff is too high.第二節(jié)（共5小題，每小題2分，滿分10分） 根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。happiness is a choice. for every minute you are angry or irritated, you lose 60 seconds of happiness. be happy and be yourself. if others dont like it, then let them alone._16_ begin today by taking responsibiliity for your own happniess. here are some ways to choose happiness:

evident in your life will bring you a deeper sense of happiness. _18_ it makes sense.the chance of being happy in your life is small if you arent thankful for what you already have. _19_ the reason

priceless gift and an opportunity. be positive, smile and make it count. a great attitude always leads to great experiences.choose to smile more often. a smile is a choice, not a miracle. dont wait for people to smile. _20_ a genuine smile makes you and everyone around you feel better. the simple act of smiling sends a message to your brain that youre happy.a. choose a good attitude.b. show them how to do it.c. choose to take care of yourself.d. life isnt about pleasing everybody.e. and thats without having to go out to get anything new.f. spend time with nice people who are smart and
