Passage One

　　The Leaning Tower of Pisa has defied (违背) the laws of gravity for seven and a half centuries.

　　Every year, on June 19th, a professor from the University of Pisa climbs to the bell tower and

　　measures the increase in the slant with special instruments. And every year the professor makes

　　the same report: the tower has leaned a fraction of an inch more. Last summer, the 125 foot-high

　　tower was leaning an incredible 15 feet out of line. Scientists say that unless a way is found to stop

　　the tilt, the tower will collapse in less than 80 years.

　　The tower is leaning because the soft subsoil of Pisa will not support it. Its foundation is

　　sinking into the soil at an angle, causing the tower to lean. Since a tremor could shake the

　　foundation loose, the ringing of the tower’s bells was forbidden in 1959. Trucks are not allowed to

　　pass in the neighborhood of the tower for this same reason.

　　36. The statement which best expresses the main idea of this passage is that ______.

　　A. the Leaning Tower of Pisa is in increasing danger of collapsing

　　B. every year a professor measures the increase in the tower’s slant

　　C. the tower is leaning because the subsoil of Pisa will not support it

　　D. there is only one way to save the Leaning Tower of Pisa

　　37. It can be inferred from the passage that last summer the tower was found tilted further by

　　______.

　　A. 15 feet B. more than one inch

　　C. a fraction of an inch D. several inches

　　38. The tower tilts more and more because ______.

　　A. the ringing of the bells causes a tremor

　　B. there are passing trucks nearby

　　C. it is built on soft soil

　　D. its foundation has been shaken loose

　　39. Why is the tower described as defying the laws of gravity?

　　A. It had resisted shaking tremors for hundreds of years.

　　B. It was built on soft ground.

　　C. It leans a fraction of an inch more every year.

　　D. Scientists think that it should have collapsed long ago.

Passage Two

　　Dr. Hausman is a hair detective (侦探). Once a mountain lion killed a thirteen-year-old boy. The

　　town offered a reward of thousand dollars for anyone who would kill the lion.

　　One day an excited hunter came to the town to say that he had killed the mountain lion. As

　　proof that he had killed the right animal, he showed a ball of human hair. He said he had taken the

　　hair from the stomach of the mountain lion.

　　However, another hunter soon showed up to claim (要求得到) the reward. He too had a ball

　　of human hair that he said he had taken from the dead lion's stomach. The town did not know

　　which man to pay. Maybe neither one had killed the right mountain lion. To settle the argument,

　　they decided to turn the whole thing over to Dr. Hausman.

　　Dr. Hausman studied the hair and reported that the second hunter should be paid. The hair in

　　the stomach of the mountain lion he had killed matched the hair of the boy. The whole town was

　　relieved to know for sure that the killer had been found.

　　There are other kinds of detectives who do not wear a uniform but who, like Hausman, solve

　　endless mysteries every year. There is, for example, the dust detective. Tiny bits of dust stick to

　　your clothes, your fingernails, your hair, or your shoes. They catch in your nose and in your ears.

　　They tell where you have been and what you have done lately. The dust detective often helps

　　catch a criminal (罪犯) by proving that he has been on the scene (现场) of the crime.

　　Then there is the wood detective. By studying a piece of wood he can tell what kind of tree

　　the piece of wood came from. He can tell where it was grown, and how old it is. He can even tell

　　you what the weather was like at a certain place the year Columbus landed in America. The

　　growth rings on a tree tell him.

　　40. Dr. Hausman decided that the second hunter had killed the mountain lion because

　　______.

　　A. the second hunter was an honest man

　　B. the second hunter showed a ball of human hair

　　C. the second hunter said that he had taken a ball of hair from the stomach of the mountain lion

　　D. the hair in the stomach of the mountain lion and the hair of the boy were exactly alike

　　41. According to the selection, by studying a piece of wood, a wood detective can tell you

　　______.

　　A. what the weather was like the year Columbus landed in America

　　B. what the weather was like last year in the mountain

　　C. what the weather was like last month in your hometown

　　D. what kind of tree the piece of wood came from

　　42. Endless mysteries are solved every year by ______.

　　A. detectives who like Hausman

　　B. detectives like Hausman

　　C. other kinds of detectives who like Hausmen

　　D. detectives Dr. Hausman likes

　　43. What does the word "they" (para.5, line 4) mean?

　　A. Your clothes. B. Your finger-nail. C. Tiny bits of dust. D. Your shoes.

Passage Three

　　The winter holiday season is the most happy time of the year. Students from elementary school

　　through college have about two weeks' vacation, beginning shortly before Christmas and ending

　　soon after New Year's Day. Many families go away for the holidays, but those who stay home

　　have fun, too. There are many parties to celebrate the birth of Christ and the arrival of the new

　　year.

　　Christianity (基督教) is based on the teachings and life of Jesus Christ. Jesus was born in

　　Bethlehem in ancient Judea. No one knows exactly when Jesus was born. The year 1 A.D. is

　　supposed to be the year of his birth, but historians now know that he was actually born several

　　years before that time. No one knows the exact date of his birth either, but Christians have

　　celebrated it on December 25 since the fourth century.

　　The spirit of Christmas arrives about a month before the holiday itself. Late in November,

　　street lights and store windows are decorated with Christmas colors of red and green.

　　Stores depend on Christmas shoppers for about one-fourth of their yearly sales. Smart

　　shoppers buy their gifts far in advance, before the Christmas rush. Christmas is expensive. To earn

　　extra money for gifts, in December many Americans get part-time jobs.

　　The most beautiful and meaningful parts of the holiday occur at home and in church. Many

　　families go to church on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. After that, they gather around the

　　tree and open their gifts. Then they sit down to enjoy a Christmas dinner --turkey (火鸡) or ham,

　　sweet potatoes, and vegetables.

　　44. According to some historians, Jesus ______.

　　A. was sent by the God to earth to save the human race

　　B. was born on December 25

　　C. was born several years before the year 1 A.D.

　　D. was born in the year 1 A.D.

　　45. It can be inferred from the selection that most people ______ on December 25.

　　A. go shopping B. visit friends C. do cleaning D. stay at home

　　46. According to the writer, to celebrate Christmas, people spend a lot of money and time on

　　______.

　　A. preparing for the Christmas dinner

　　B. going to church

　　C. writing letters and sending Christmas

　　D. buying gifts for family members, relatives or friends

　　47. We can conclude from the selection that ______ like Christmas best.

　　A. government officials B. teachers C. storekeepers D. secretaries

Passage Four

　　Although we do not know the exact origin of the earliest Olympic games, we do know that the

　　ancient Greeks had a festival in which athletes (运动员) competed in sports. On the opening day

　　of the festival, perhaps 30,000 visitors crowded the streets. There were no sports on this day and

　　the athletes took a sacred oath (神圣的誓言). They promised to play fair in the sports, a promise

　　that is part of the oath Olympic athletes take today.

　　On the second morning of the festival, young athletes ran out onto the field. The first event

　　will be a foot race 607 feet in length. In the evening, after the sports, the visitors to Olympia

　　would enjoy food, songs and speeches. They also did some business. At Olympia, keen minds (学

　　者) from all over Greece exchanged ideas. Philosophers argued before the public. Poets recited

　　their poems.

　　This celebration was held every four years and was open to all men and boys who spoke

　　Greek as their native language. The competition itself consisted of a single race and it was over in

　　one day.

　　The Olympic games came into being in 776 BC (before the Christ) and were most popular

　　around the fifth century BC. At that time, the winner of a game received neither gold nor silver but

　　a simple crown of olive leaves (橄榄叶) -- the highest honor a Greek could win. His family and

　　his city were prouder of his victory than of winning a war. His name and achievement were carved

　　on stone.

　　The first of the modern Olympics took place in the same country as the original festivals: two

　　hundred eighty-five athletes from thirteen countries competed in Athens in 1890. Today over ten

　　thousand athletes from over one hundred seventy countries and regions compete --- every four

　　years in a different city of the world.

　　48. According to the selection, on the first day of the ancient Olympic Games the athletes

　　took an oath ______.

　　A. which is somewhat similar to the oath Olympic athletes take today

　　B. which is entirely different from the oath the Olympic athletes take now

　　C. which was an oath they never kept

　　D. which was an oath they always broke

　　49. It can be inferred from the selection that Olympia was ______.

　　A. in Spain

　　B. in Italy

　　C. in Rome

　　D. the place where the ancient Olympic games first took place

　　50. When the winner of the ancient Olympic games received a simple crown of olive leaves,

　　______.

　　A. he didn't fell very pleased

　　B. he would rather be given gold or silver

　　C. he felt greatly honored

　　D. he would rather receive money

　　51. The first modern Olympic games took place ______.

　　A. in Olympia B. in Greece C. in Spain D. in Italy

Passage Five

　　A certain hunter had found a piece of forest where there were plenty of animals to hunt. The only

　　trouble was that the place was very difficult to get to.

　　He returned from his first visit to the place in late autumn, and could not get back until the

　　snow melted in the following spring. Then he went to the pilot of a small plane, who earned his

　　living by carrying hunters over parts of the country where there were no roads and no railways. He

　　asked the pilot to take him back to the piece of forest.

　　The pilot did not know the place, so the hunter showed it to him on the map. "But there is

　　nowhere to land there," said the pilot. "I have flown over that we can't land anywhere between this

　　river and these mountains."

　　"I thought you were a wonderful pilot," said the hunter, "some of my friends said you could

　　land a plane on a postage stamp."

　　"That's right," answered the pilot. "I can land a plane where nobody else can. But I tell you

　　there is nowhere to land in the place you are talking about."

　　"And what if I tell you that another pilot did land me there last spring?" said the hunter.

　　"Is that true?" asked the pilot.

　　"Yes, it is. I swear (发誓) it."

　　Well, this pilot could not let himself beaten by another, so he agreed to take the hunter.

　　When they reached the place, the hunter pointed out a small spot without trees in the middle

　　of the forest, with a steep rise (陡坡) at one end. The pilot thought there was not enough room to

　　land there, but the hunter said that the other pilot had done so the year before, so down went the

　　plane. When it came to the rise, it turned right over (翻转) onto its back. As the hunter climbed

　　out, he smiled happily and said, "Yes, that is exactly how the other pilot managed it last time."

　　52. The hunter in the story went to the forest ______.

　　A. once B. twice

　　C. many times D. none of the above

　　53. In the story the hunter asked a pilot to take him to the piece of forest. This pilot was
