完形填空（每小題1.5分，共30分）
It was a normal summer night, humidity（潮濕）hung in the thick air. The only sound was my sister’s heavy __36__ from the bed next to me.
I couldn’t go to _37__, partly because of my cold and partly because of my __38__ for the next day. My mum had said that tomorrow was going to be a __39__ .
Sweat stuck to my aching body. Finally, I gathered enough __40__ to sit up. I looked out of my small window into the night. There was a big bright __41__ hanging in the sky, giving off a magic glow.
My sister turned over as though she was as light as air. Why could she sleep soundly? Why wasn’t she __42__ too? Did she know about tomorrow?
I couldn’t stand the __43__ anymore, so I did what I always do to make myself feel better. I went to the __44__ and picked up my toothbrush and toothpaste. Pouring the red paste onto the brush, I cleaned back and forth, up and down.
Then I walked downstairs to look for some __45__of movement, some life. Gladiator, my cat, __46__ me as he meowed（貓叫）his sad song. He was on the old orange couch （長(zhǎng)沙發(fā)）, sitting up on his front legs,   47   something to happen. He looked at me as if to say, “I’m __48__, pet me. I need a good hug.” Even the couch begged me to sit on it.
In one movement I settled down onto the soft   49 . This couch represented my birth, my parents’ marriage, and hundreds of other little __50__.
As I held Gladiator, my heart started beating heavily. My mind was __51__ with questions: What’s life? Am I really alive? Are you listening to me? Every time I moved my hand down Gladiator’s body, I had a __52__ thought; each touch sang a different song.
I forgot all about the __53__ and the next day’s surprise. The __54__ was so full of warmth and silence that I sank into its arms. Falling asleep with the big cat in my arms, I felt all my worries __55__ move away.

Our neighbour's son was getting married at an out-of-town church, and my husband and I were invited. We immediately rushed out to a store, and I bought a nice pink dress with a jacket. The dress was a little tight, but I had a month to go before the June 30 wedding and I would lose a few pounds.
June 29 came and, of course, I hadn't lost a single pound; in fact I had gained two. But I figured a nice new girdle (緊身內(nèi)衣)would cure everything. So on our way out of the city we stopped once again at the store. I ran in and told the clerk I needed a large-size girdle. The shop assistant found the box with the described girdle marked "LG", and asked if I would like to try it on. “Oh, no, a large will fit just right. I needn't try it on.”
The next morning was rather hot, so I waited to get dressed until about 45 minutes before time to go. I opened the box only to find a new girdle in a small size. Since it was too late to find another one and the dress wouldn't fit right without a girdle, a fight broke out in the hotel room between me and the girdle. Have you ever tried to shake 20 pounds of potatoes into a five-pound bag? That's it. Finally my husband, laughing like crazy, got hold of each side and shook me down into it. At once I put on the pink dress, which didn't match my red face well, and was ready to go.
Finally we got to the church. I heard one of the people say that they were having a High Mass. I turned to my husband and asked, "What is a High Mass?" He shrugged his shoulders.
Unfortunately, I learned that this particular mass would last one hour, twenty-two minutes and eight and one half seconds—the priest (神父) was going to bless everything except my girdle.
小題1: The author most probably bought a nice pink dress with a jacket ______.
A．4 weeks laterB．4 weeks agoC．a(chǎn) fortnight ago D．a(chǎn) fortnight later

A．She was very lucky to buy a girdle to go with her dress.
B．She had no choice but to put on the dress without a girdle.
C．She complained to the shop assistant about her carelessness.
D．She managed to put on the girdle with her husband’s help.
小題4:The purpose of this passage is ______.
A．to show a husband’s selfless loveB．to share an interesting experience

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：不詳 題型：閱讀理解

Of all the animals in the animal kingdom, which one (aside from man) is the cleverest?
There are several ways of measuring the intelligence of animals. In one test a scientist sets three same cans on a table. While the animal watches, he puts food under one of the cans. Then he leads the animal away. Some time later, he brings it back to see if it remembers which can has the food. No smelling is allowed; the animal must go directly to the correct can or it fails.
This is called a delayed- response text. The idea is to find out how long an animal’s memory can keep information. The scientists would try showing the cans to the animal one hour later, or two hours later, or even a full day later. They discovered that chimpanzees and elephants had the best memory, and were able to remember the correct can for at least twenty hours. No other animal is close. Dogs came next, but they only remembered for nine hours.
To settle the matter, the scientists designed a huge maze (迷宮) and ran the chimps  and elephants through it. The maze was very difficult, with many blind paths and dead ends. It took the chimps (chimpanzees) ten minutes to find their way out. The elephants needed half an hour. Even allowing for the elephants’ slower rate of speed, the test shows that chimpanzees are the cleverest animals.
From this and other tests, the scientists drew the following conclusion: an animal’s intelligence depends on the size of its brain in proportion (比例) to the size of its body. The elephant’s brain weighs ten pounds. But this is only 1/600th of its 6,000 pounds body. A chimp’s brain weighs about one pound, or 1/120th of its total body weight. So in proportion to its body size, the chimp has four times as much brain as the elephant----more brain for less body. The chimp is the champ!
小題1:Which is the best title ?
A．The Elephant’s MemoryB．The Cleverest Animal
C．Judging IntelligenceD．The Chimp’s Brain
小題2:The main idea of this passage is that ________.
A．there are several ways of measuring the intelligence of animals
B．chimps and elephants have the best memory
C．intelligence tests show that the chimp is the cleverest animal
D．the scientists designed a huge maze and ran the chimps and elephants through it
小題3:The delayed-response test is designed to test an animal’s________.
A．eyesightB．intelligenceC．learning abilityD．memory
小題4:The passage tells that elephants ________.
A．never forget thingsB．a(chǎn)re more clever than chimps
C．a(chǎn)re slower-moving than chimpsD．have better memories than chimps
小題5:According to the passage, a rhinoceros (犀牛) that weighs 2100 pounds, and has a 3-pound brain is
________.
A．a(chǎn)s clever as a chimpB．more clever than an elephant
C．less clever than an elephantD．a(chǎn)s clever as an elephant

A child-like robot, Wakamaru, developed by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of Japan and combining the roles of nurse, companion and security guard, will soon be in the market to look after the growing number of old people with no one to look after them.
Cameras implanted under the “ eyebrows” of the robot enable it to “see’’ as it moves around in a house. The images can be sent to the latest mobile telephones, which can show the pictures. Wakamaru speaks with either the voice of a boy or a girl. It is also designed to provide companionship, greeting its “ papa”, when he comes home. Based on a vocabulary of around 10 000 words, it is the first household robot which is able to hold simple conversations. It can not only speak, but also understand answers and react accordingly. It will ask“ Are you all right?” if its owner does not move for some time. If the answer is no, or there is no answer, it will telephone preset numbers, send images and work as a speakerphone. It can recognize up to 10 faces. It can be set to remind forgetful people when it is time to take medicine, eat and sleep.
However, like most robots, it cannot climb stairs. Mitsubishi developed Wakamaru from robots which have already been made to go around nuclear power facilities(設(shè)施). “ Looking at the ageing of society and the falling birth rate we decided that this could work as a business. We want to offer it as a product that helps society,’’ said the project chief. The developers plan to sell the robot from April next year at between 5,000 and 6,000 pound.
The life expectancy of Japanese women has shot up to almost 85, the highest in the world. At the same time, extended families are being replaced by nuclear families. This has left many Japanese anxious about their elderly parents. Therefore, the technology has gained nation-wide publicity in Japan.
68.Which of the following is TRUE about Wakamaru?
A.    It is used in some nuclear power facilities.
B.     It can speak but cannot understand answers.
C.     It can go up and down the stairs easily.
D.    It can recognize as many as 10 people.
69.The passage is written with the purpose to ______.
A. introduce a new product  
B solve the aging problems.
C. tell people how to use the robot 
D show the rapid development of technology
70. What can be inferred from the passage ?
A. The robot can dial proper numbers for help
B. The robot is likely to have a promising market.
C. The robot enables the Japanese to live longer
D. Many elderly Japanese are anxious about their future

Have you ever noticed advertisements which say “Learn a foreign language in 6 weeks, or your money back! From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send…” and so on? Of course, it never happens quite like that. The only language that is easy to learn is one’s mother tongue. And think how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War people usually learnt a foreign language in order to read the literature of the country.
Now speaking a foreign language is what most people want. Every year millions of people start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try at home, with books and records of tapes; some use radio or television programs; some use computers and network; others go to evening classes. If they use the language only 2 or 3 times a week, learning it will take a long time, like learning a foreign language at school. A few people try to learn a language fast by studying for 6 or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country where it is spoken.
However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need the language in order to do their work better. For example, scientists and doctors chiefly need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learnt quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines and good books will help, but they cannot do the student’s work for him.
小題1:According to some advertisements, you ______ .
A．have to pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks.
B．needn’t pay you money if you cannot learn a foreign language in 6 weeks
C．must pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks
D．will be paid much money if you cannot learn a foreign language in 6 weeks
小題2:Now most people try to learn a foreign language in order to ______.
A．read the literature of the countryB．read books and reports
C．do their work betterD．go to foreign countries
小題3:Learning a foreign language is a hard job ______.
A．only for scientists and doctorsB．only for the students at school
C．for those people at homeD．for most people
