    閱讀下列三篇短文，從每題所給的四個選現(xiàn)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。

( A )

My father had returned from his business visit to London when I came in, rather late, to supper. I could tell at once that he and my mother had been discussing something. In that half-playful, half-serious way I knew so well, he said, "How would you like to go to Eton?"

     "You bet," I cried quickly catching the joke. Everyone knew it was the most expensive, the most famous of schools. You had to be entered at birth, if not before. Besides, even at 12 or 13, I understood my father. He disliked any form of showing off. He always knew his proper station in life, which was in the middle of the middle class, our house was medium-sized; he had avoided joining Royal Liverpool Golf Club and went to a smaller one instead; though once he had got a second-hand Rolls-Royce at a remarkably low price, he felt embarrassed driving it, and quickly changed it for an Austin 1100.

     This could only be his delightful way of telling me that the whole boarding school idea was to be dropped. Alas! I should also have remembered that he had a liking for being different from everyone else, if it did not conflict(沖突) with his fear of drawing attention to himself.

     It seemed that he had happened to be talking to Graham Brown of the London office, a very nice fellow, and Graham had a friend who had just entered his boy at the school, and while he was in that part of the world he thought he might just as well phone them. I remember my eyes stinging(刺痛) and my hands shaking with the puzzlement of my feelings. There was excitement, at the heart of great sadness.

     "Oh, he doesn't want to go away," said my mother, "You shouldn't go on like this.” “It's up to him," said my father. "He can make up his own mind."

46. The house the writer's family lived in was ________.

    A. the best they could afford              B. right for their social position

    C. for showing off                      D. rather small

47. His father sold his Roils-Royce because ________.

     A. it made him feel uneasy                B. it was too old to work well

     C. it was too expensive to possess           D. it was too cheap

48. The writer's father enjoyed being different as long as ________.

    A. it drew attention to him                    B. it didn't bring him in arguments

    C. it was understood as a joke              D. there was no danger of his showing off

49. What was the writer's reaction to the idea of going to Eton?

    A. He was very unhappy.               B. He didn't believe it.

    C. He was delighted.                   D. He had mixed feelings.

50. We can know from the passage that ________.

    A. Children who can go to Eton are very famous

    B. Children can go to Eton if they will

    C. It is very difficult for a child to get admitted by Eton

    D. Children don't have the right to decide whether they will go to Eton

( B )

Dog owners now have a little help understanding their furry friends . A new device called Bow-Lingual “translates” dog barks into English , Korea or Japanese.

Bow-Lingual’s Japanese inventors spent much time and money analyzing dog barks . They found that dog noises can be broken down into six different emotions : happiness , sadness , frustration , anger , assertion and desire .

Part of the Bow-Lingual device hangs on the dog’s collar . The other part is a handle-held unit for the owner . When the dogs barks , the unit displays translated phrases .

Some people have scoffed at Bow-Lingual. “Who would pay US$ 120 to read a dog’s mind?” they ask .

But those who have purchased Bow-Lingual praise the device . Pet owner Keiko Egawa , of Japan , says it helps her empathize with her dog , Harry . “Before we go to the park , he always says he wants to play,” says Egawa , “and after a walk , he always says he is hungry.”

( C )

With fifteen years Britain and other nations should be well on with the building of huge industrial complexes for the recycling of waste . The word rubbish could lose its meaning because everything which goes into the dumps would be made into something useful . Even the most dangerous and unpleasant wastes would provide energy if nothing else .

The latest project is to take a city of around half a million inhabitants and discover exactly what raw materials go into it and what go out . The aim is to find out how much of these raw materials could be provided if a plant for recycling waste were built just outside the city . This plant would recycle not only metal such as steel , lead and copper , but also paper and rubber as well .

Another new project is being set up to discover the best ways of sorting and separating the rubbish . When this project is complete , the rubbish will be processed like this : First , it will pass through sharp metal bars which will tear open the plastic bags in which rubbish is usually packed ; then it will pass through a powerful fan to separate the lightest elements from the heavy solids ; after that founders and rollers will break up everything that can be broken . Finally , the rubbish will pass under magnets （磁鐵）, which will remove the bits of iron and steel ; the rubber and plastic will then be sorted out in the final stage .

The first full-scale giant recycling plants are perhaps fifteen years away . Indeed , with the growing cost of transporting rubbish to more distant dumps , some big cities will be forced to build their own recycling plants before long .

56．The phrase “be well on with ……” (Para .1) most probably means         .

       A．have completed what was started            B．get ready to start

       C．have achieved a great deal in               D．put an end to

57．What is NOT mentioned as a part of the recycling process described in paragraph 3?

       A．Breaking up whatever is breakable .         B．Sharpening metal bars .

       C．Separating light elements from the heavy ones .

       D．Sorting out small pieces of metal .

58．What’s the main reason for big cities to build their own recycling plants ?

       A．To deal with wastes in a better way .

       B．To protect the environment from pollution .

       C．To get raw materials locally .

       D．To get big profits from those plants .

59．The first full-scale huge recycling plants         .

       A．began to operate fifteen years ago

       B．will probably take less than fifteen years to build

       C．will be built fifteen years later

       D．will probably be in operation in fifteen years

60．The passage is mainly about         .

       A．a(chǎn) cheap way to get energy                   B．the location of recycling plants

       C．new ways of recycling wastes             D．the probability of city environment

     When you enter a supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk between the shelves. You carry a shopping basket and put your food in it. You probably hear soft, low music as you walk between the shelves. __61   .

     Maybe you go to the meat department first. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department.   62   . Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.

     The department selling milk and milk products such as butter and milk powder is called the dairy department.   63   . One store has three different jars of low fat milk. One says “1 percent fat” on the jar. The second says “99 percent fat free.” The third says “LOW FAT” in big letters and “1 %” in small letters. As you can see, all the milk has the same amount of fat. The milk is all the same,    64   . Maybe the customers will buy the milk that costs the most.

Advantanges and disadvantages of the Internet

     Fifteen years ago, the Internet was unheard of by most people. Today, the Internet is one of the most powerful tools throughout the world. The Internet is a collection of various services and resources.

     Many fear the Internet because of its disadvantage. They claim (主張) not to use the Internet because they are simply not interested or are afraid of the possible consequences (后果). Children using the Internet has become a big concern. When children talk to others online, they do not realize they could actually be talking to a person who may harm them later. There are many examples that children have been convinced (說服) to meet people they have talked with online.

     The most common thing the Internet is used for is research. Children and students are among the top ones who use the Internet for research. Today, it is almost required that students use the Internet for research. Another popular thing to do on the Internet is to check out the news. Almost all-local news can be got through the Internet.

答案：

21. children 由left Dave a lot of money 可知，David的叔叔沒有自己的孩子。

        22. set up 指“創(chuàng)辦”公司。

        23. bought 由前面的found和后面的and moved可知，三個動詞是并列的，即A，B and C。

        24. towards 由heard someone coming 可知，是“朝著”他的辦公司走過來，較表示“到達(dá)”的to要好。

        25. the 特指他辦公室的那部電話。

        26. answering 表示“接”電話，習(xí)慣上用answer，因be busy doing可知，用answering。

        27. who 定語從句，先行詞是人someone，且在定語從句中作主語，用who。

        28. while 由后面的waited可知，進(jìn)來時David還在打電話，所以用while。

        29.politely 修飾動詞waited用副詞，在形容詞后加ly。

        30. was sent因send與I是被動關(guān)系，且是到此之前領(lǐng)導(dǎo)派我來的。

第二節(jié)   任務(wù)型寫作（滿分25分）

    As everyone knows, People can get much information through the Internet. Meanwhile, people are also clearly aware of its disadvantages, but some children don’t realize they sometimes make friends with bad people online.

    In my opinion, people can use the Internet to make friends, download useful materials and go shopping online. It’s really very helpful. However, there are also many disadvantages about the Internet. If you can’t use it correctly, it may be harmful to you. In junior middle school, I was once crazy about playing online games and I counldn’t control myself. As a result, my study results were getting from bad to worse. Besides, if you believe whatever your friends say online, you will be cheated by them some day, I think.

    As a student, we should spend more our time on studying and less time on the Internet. Of course, if we can control our time of surfing the Internet, we surely can use it after school.
