The train was made up of 13 cars. At the end of the train, 71 mailmen sat sorting the mail. Inside the second car, there were only five mailmen and 128 bags full of five-pound notes. This train had run more than 100 years without being robbed(搶劫). At three minutes past three, Mills and his helper, David Whitby, saw a yellow warning light. They slowed the train, and then stopped. Whitby went to the telephone beside the track. It was out of order. Then he saw a man moving between the second and the third cars. Before Whitby could give a warning, he was knocked down by two men. Mills cars with all the mailmen had been disconnected by the robbers. At the bridge, the bags of money were unloaded from the train and thrown into waiting trucks. One of the robbers who obviously knew the schedules(時(shí)刻表) of all the trains kept looking at his watch. At 3:45 he said, “That will have to be enough.” The robbers drove away with more than 2,500,000 pounds.41. The robbery took place_.A. before 3:03 B. in the early morning C. after three oclock in the afternoon D. after 3:4542. The robbers_ before the train stopped.A. were all in the train B. forced Mills to stop the trainC. were waiting for the train to stop D. ordered Mills to go on driving43. Why didnt the other mailmen help the mailmen in the second car when the robbery happened?A. Because they were busy sorting the mail.B. Because they didnt want to help the mailmen in the second car.C. Because the last eleven cars were separated from the front cars.D. Because they knew nothing about the robbery.44. One of the robbers kept looking at his watch because_.A. he wanted to know the exact time B. he enjoyed looking at his watchC. he didnt know when another train would comeD. they had to leave before another train came45.

The robbers carried the money away by truck.B All of us eat every day, but most of us dont understand nutrition. We often make mistakes in talking about good diet. For example, many people think that foods such as rice, bread and potatoes will make one grow fat. In fact, these foods are very good to ones health. They are good sources of many vitamins. And in comparison with steak and beef, they contain less amount of calories. Some people dont like canned(罐裝的) or frozen vegetables, because they think fresh vegetables cooked at home are always better. This is again wrong. In fact, whether the vegetables are good or not depends more on how they are prepared. Overcooking, for example, destroys good qualities of vegetables. Vegetables cooked in too much water can lose a large amount of vitamins. It is widely believed extra vitamins provide more energy. But taking more than the body needs doesnt make it function better. It is also wrong to say that vegetables grown in poor, worn-out soil are lower in vitamins than vegetables grown in rich soil. The vitamins in our foods are in the plants themselves. They dont come from the soil. However, the minerals(礦物質(zhì)) in a plant depend on the minerals in the soil. In short, there are many false ideas about nutrition. We need to correct them.46. This passage is mainly about_.A. nutrition B. vitamins C. vegetables D. health47. Rice, bread and potatoes do good to peoples health mainly because_.A. they make people fat B. there are lot of vitamins in themC. they contain less amount of calories compared with steak and beef.D. both B and C.48. Why dont some people like canned or frozen vegetables? Because_.A. they think fresh vegetables contain less vitaminsB. they think fresh vegetables contain more vitamins than the canned or frozen onesC. they dont think the canned or frozen vegetables are freshD. they dont think the canned or frozen vegetables taste as good as the fresh ones49. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Many people know almost everything about nutrition.B. Food such as rice, bread and potatoes make people fat.C. vegetables grown in poor worn-out soil may have the same amount of vitamins as vegetables grown in rich soil.D. extra vitamins provide less energy.50. The point of the passage is that_.A. the minerals in a plant depend on the minerals in the soilB. people make mistakes when talking about good dietC. taking more vitamins than the body needs doesnt make it function betterD. vegetables cooked in too much water can lose a large amount of vitaminsC Men usually want to have their own way. They want to think and act as they like. No one, however, can have his own way all the time. A man cannot live in society without considering the interests(利益) of others as well as his own interests. “Society” means a group of people with the same laws and the same way of life. People in society may make their own decisions, but these decisions ought not to be unjust(不公平) or harmful to others. One mans decisions may so easily harm another person. For example, a motorist may be in a hurry to get to a friends house. He sets out, driving at full speed like a competitor in a motor race. There are other vehicles and also pedestrians (行人) on the road. Suddenly there is a crash. There are screams and confusion. One careless motorist has struck another car. The collision(碰撞) has injured two of the passengers and killed the third. Too many road accidents happen through the thoughtlessness of selfish drivers. We have governments, the police and the law courts to prevent or to punish such criminal acts. But in addition, all men ought to observe certain rules of conduct. Every man ought to behave with consideration for other men. He ought not to steal, cheat, or destroy the property(財(cái)產(chǎn)) of others. There is no place of this sort of behavior in a civilized society.51. A man cannot have his own way all the time because_.A. he may have no interest in other peopleB. he has to share the same interest with the people in the same societyC. his decisions are always unjust D. his decisions always harm other people52. According to the passage, people in a civilized society should usually_.A. be honest to each other B. be cautions in doing everythingC. behave in a responsible way D. punish criminal acts53. The purpose of this passage is to_.A. tell people how to behave in society B. illustrate the importance of lawsC. teach people how to prevent criminal actsD. persuade people not to make their own decisions54. It is implied that there will be fewer road accidents if_.A. the drivers are more considerate(體貼的) of other peopleB. there are fewer cars or walkers in the streetC. the motorists are not always in a hurryD. the passengers are calm but not confused before the accidents55. We can draw a conclusion that_.A. the government should contribute more effortsB. the criminals should be more severely punishedC. man should be more strict with himselfD. man should have more and more similar interestsDPowerful, blonde and over six feet tall, Maria Sharapova is the most brilliant tennis player who has ever stepped on tennis court. In the summer of 2004, seventeen-year-old Sharapova shocked the tennis world by defeating defending champion Serena Williams in the singles finals at Wimbledon, becoming the first Russian player to win the prestigious tennis event, and the third youngest winner in the history of the tournament.Born on April 19, 1987, in Nyagan, a town in western Siberia, Russia, Maria Sharapova was encouraged by her parents to try everything, from dancing and music to athletics. She discovered tennis after her fourth birthday. Her parents liked to play tennis, too, so they began teaching her how to hit the ball. She proved to be a quick learner, and when she was six years old they traveled to Moscow for a youth tennis clinic.Sharapova and her father moved from Russia to Florida when she was nine so that she could study at the tennis academy of Nick Bollettieri. She won her first junior championship title at the age of thirteen, and turned professional in 2001. Then Sharapova steadily worked her way up through the professional ranks, claiming her first WTA victory in Japan in 2003. Her crowning moment came the next year, when she won Winbledon, at a young age of 17, solidifying a consistent spot in the top five. She gained her second and third major titles by beating Justine Henin at the 2006 US Open and Ana Ivanovic at the 2008 Australian Open. Sharapova has earned a spot on Forbes magazines Celebrity 100list as the highest paid female athlete in the world.Sharapova hopes to win Wimbledon, the Australian, French, and US Opens in the same year. No other female player has done so since German champion Steffi Graf in 1988. Sharapova also looks forward to a career beyond tennis. She has done some modeling, is a devoted reader of fashion magazines, and has even helped design some of her court outfits with Nike. Fashion design might be a career option when she retires from tennis. Acting would be an-other choice. Nothing scares me, she said, because Im not worried about failure. You never know until you try. So if you dont try, youve failed. All I know is, Im starving to be the best.56. Which of the following is not TRUE?A. Sharapova became the champion of the Wimbledon tournament at the age of 17.B.

Championships Sharapova Has GotBEnergy-saving Finns invented the first ice skate more than 5,000 years ago, as a practical method of transport to make getting across frozen lakes less of a struggle. The earliest skates would have been blades made from bones and are one of the oldest means of transport ever discovered they may even have been essential survival tools. Researchers at Manchester Metropolitan University have calculated that ice skates would have saved energy by 10 percent, and suggest that they were developed for practical use and were not used for recreation, as they are today. They think the most likely birthplace of skating is southern Finland, where there are many icy lakes. The scientists have put their theory to the test and made replica skates modeled after examples held at the British Museum and the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. Volunteers on ice rinks in the Alps had their heart rates, oxygen intake and skating speeds measured while they skated with the replica skates. From this experiment, re-searchers were able to calculate energy consumption and the efficiency of their skating. They discovered that skating over the land in ancient Fin-land would have saved 10 percent of peoples energy. The result is based on the fact that Finland has the highest concentration6 of lakes in the world. The ancient Finnish people could benefit more than others from developing this
