         A man once said how useless it was to put advertisements in the newspaper."Last week," he said,"my
    umbrella was stolen from a London church. As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but
    didn't get it back."
         "How did you write your advertisement?" asked one of the listeners, a merchant.
         "Here it is," said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The other man took it
    and read,"Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella.. The gentleman who finds
    it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street."
         "Now," said the merchant,"I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an
    advertisement is expressed of extreme importance. Let us try for your umbrella again, and if it fails, I'll buy
    you a new one."
         The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: "If the man who was seen to take
    an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening doesn't wish to get into trouble, he will return the
    umbrella to No.10 Broad Street. He is well known."
         This appeared in the newspaper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened
    the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors, and his own was among
    them. Many of them had notes fastened to them saying that they had been taken by mistake, and begging the

    1. What is an advertisement?
    A. A news item.

    2. The result of the first advertisement was that __________.
    A. the man got his umbrella back
    B. the man wasted some money advertising
    C. nobody found the missing umbrella
    D. the umbrella was found somewhere near the church
    3. The merchant suggested that the man should ________.
    A. buy a new umbrella
    B. go on looking for his umbrella
    C. write another and better advertisement
    D. report the police
    4. "If it fails, I'll buy you a new one," suggested that the merchant ________.
    A. was quite sure of success
    B. wanted to buy him a new umbrella

    D. was rich enough to buy one
    5. The story is mainly about _________.

         The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666. In four days it destroyed
    more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were made of wood and close together.
    Over one hundred people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.  
         The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker (面包师) in Pudding Lane. The baker,
    with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window into the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from
    the bakery into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.  
         By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning
    along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St
    Paul's and the Guildhall among them.   
         Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire, "People threw their things into the river. Many poor
    people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat."   
         The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of
    the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.   
         After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect (建筑师), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new
    houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow, but he did build more than fifty churches, among them the
    new St Paul's.   
        The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just
    of the past.
    1. The fire began in _________.
    A. a hotel
    B. the palace
    C. Pudding Lane
    D. Thames Street
    2. The underlined word "family" in the second paragraph means"______".
    A. home
    B. children
    C. wife and husband
    D. wife and children
    3. It seems that the writer of the text was most sorry for the fact that _____.
    A. some people lost their lives  
    B. the birds in the sky were killed by the fire  
    C. many famous buildings were destroyed
    D. the King's bakery was burned down
    4. Why did the writer cite (引用) Samuel Pepys?
    A. Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire.  
    B. Because Pepys also wrote about the fire.  
    C. To show that poor people suffered most.  
    D. To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire.
    5. How was the fire put out according to the text?
    A. The King and his soldiers came to help.  
    B. All the houses made of wood in the city were destroyed.  
    C. People managed to get enough water from the river.
    D. Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down.
    6. Which of the following were reasons for the rapid spread of the big fire?  
        a. There was a strong wind.     
        b. The streets were not wide enough.
        c. Many houses were made of wood. 
        d. There was not enough water in the city.  
        e. People did not discover the fire earlier.
    A. a and b           
    B. a, b and c  
    C. a, b, c and d       
    D. a, b, c, d and e

         America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or
    older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American
    society in many ways - education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the graying of America has made us a very
    different society - one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various
    ages.
         A person's age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or health. There's no
    longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The
    social clock that keeps us on time and tells us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn't as strong
    as it used to be. It doesn't surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.
         Many people say,"I am much younger than my mother-or my father-was at my age. 'No one says Act your
    age' any more. We've stopped looking with surprising at older people who act in youthful ways."
    1. It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America _________.
    A. has made people feel younger
    B. has changed people's social position
    C. has changed people's understanding of age
    D. has slowed down the country's social development
    2. The underlined word "one" refers to"________."
    A. a society
    B. America
    C. a place
    D. population
    3. "Act your age" means people should _________.
    A. be active when they are old
    B. do the right things at the right age
    C. show respect for their parents young or old
    D. take more physical exercise suitable to their age
    4. If a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text
        would most probably consider it _______.
    A. normal
    B. wonderful
    C. unbelievable
    D. unreasonable

    阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
         "Depend on yourself"is what nature says to everyone. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. Others
    still can help you. But all these only help you to help yourself.
         There have been great men in history. But many of them were very poor in childhoods and no uncles, aunts
    or friends to help them. Schools were few and not very good. They could not depend upon them for an
    education. They saw how it was, and set to work with all their strength to know something. They worked their own way up to fame.
         One of the most famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils. "I can not make worthy men of you but
    I can help you make men of yourself."
         But some young men tend to totally depend on others to help them out. They can never achieve much
    unless they see their weak points and change their course. They are nothing now, and will be nothing as long as
    they live, unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers and depend on their own honest efforts.
         [写作内容] 1)以约30词概括短文的要点;
                                2)然后以约120词就“一切靠自己”的主题发表看法,并包括以下要点:
         a)表达你的论点;
         b)陈述你的理由;
         c)概括你的论点:应该如何依靠自己。
         [写作要求]可以使用实例或其它论述方法支持你的论点,也可以参照阅读材料的内容,但不得直
    接引用原文中的句子。
