As soon as the earth’s 45 cooled enough, the rain began to fall. 46 such rains 47 . They fell continuously, day and night, days passing into months, into years, into centuries. They poured into the waiting ocean basins, 48 away to become sea.

More than 6000 children expelled from US school last year for bringing guns and bombs to school, the US Department of Education said on May 8.
The department gave a report on the expulsions as saying handguns accounted for 58 percent of the 6093 expulsions in 1996-97, against 7 per cent for rifles or short-guns and 35 per cent for other types of firearms.
“The report is a clear sign that our nation’s public schools are cracking down on students who bring guns to school,” Education Secretary Richard Riley said in a statement. “We need to be tough-minded about keeping guns out of our schools and do everything to keep our children safe.”
In March 1997, an 11-year-old boy and a 13-year-old boy using handguns and rifles shot dead four children and a teacher at school in Jonesboro, Arkansas. In October, two were killed and seven wounded in a shooting at Mississippi school. Two months later, a 14-year-old boy killed three high school students and wounded five in Paducah, Kentucky.
Most of the expulsions, 56 per cent were from high schools, which have students from about 13.34 per cent were from junior school and 9 percent were from elementary school, the report said.
56. From the first paragraph we can infer that in the US schools__________.
A. students enjoy shooting
B. students are eager to be soldiers
C. safety is a problem
D. students are easy to be expelled from schools
57. The main idea of the paragraph four shows us___________.
A. some examples of the gun problem in US schools
B. the Americans’ feeling
C. some famous schools
D. that some teachers were killed by students
58. From this passage we know that_____________.
A. not every American has guns
B. teachers are not allowed to have guns
C. every American citizen can own guns
D. only soldiers and police can have guns
B
Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how many towns can help the country’s economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health and happiness) of local inhabitants.
Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.
On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers（阴沟）to handle waste and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.
59. Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before the passage?
A. It is extremely important to develop tourism.
B. Building roads and hotels is essential.
C. Support facilities are highly necessary.
D. Planning is of great important to tourism.
60. Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT______.
A. a bad impact on other industries.
B. a change of tourists’ customs.
C. overcrowdedness of places of interest.
D. pressure on traffic
61. Not enough tourism can lead to ______.
A. an increase of unemployment
B. a decrease in tourist attractions
C. the higher cost of support facilities
D. a rise in price and a fall in pay.
62. The word “handle” in the last paragraph most probably means______.
A. carry away B. pick up C. get in D. take down
C
Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. He knows what he wants, and his purpose is to find it and buy it. The price is a less important consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it, the salesman immediately produces it, and the business of trying it on is done at once. All being well, the bargain can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone’s satisfaction.
For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants. Then the salesman tries to sell the customer something else---he offers the nearest he can to the thing required. He usually says, “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it on for size? It happens to be the color you wanted.” Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual reply is, “This is the right color and maybe the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”
Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? She does so in the opposite way. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only ”having a look round”. She is always open to persuasion, indeed she considers of great importance what the saleswoman tells her, even what her friends tell her. She will try on any number of things. Highest in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always trying to find an unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one counter to another before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It takes a great deal of time but give great joy. Most dress shops supply chairs for the waiting husbands.
63. When a man is buying clothes, he ______.
A. puts price before quality.
B. chooses things that others think suitable for him.
C. does not mind much the price he has to pay for the right things.
D. buys good quality things, so long as they do not cost too much
64 From the passage, we know that in shopping for a jacket______.
A. men like their jackets to be bigger than their size.
B. most men can tell whether it is the right size for them.
C. men makes sure it fits them before buying it.
D. men don’t worry whether the clothes fit well or not so long as it is the right color.
65. When a man cannot get what he wants, he _____.
A. buys something of the same color in a slightly different style.
B. usually does not buy anything.
C. will try on some other clothes of the same style.
D. wastes no time in buying something else.
66. What does the passage tell us about women shoppers for clothes?
A. They welcome suggestions from anyone.
B. Women seldom consider buying cheap clothes.
C. Women often buy things without thinking.
D. They listen to advice but never take it.
67. The most obvious difference between men and women shoppers is ______.
A. that men do not try clothes on in a shop while women do.
B. that women bargain for their clothes and men don’t.
C. that women do their shopping standing up but men do theirs sitting down.
D. the time they take over buying clothes.
D
Take a rapid look at someone, and then look away. Do you realize you have made a statement? Hold the glance for a second longer, and you have made a different statement. Hold it for three seconds, and the meaning has changed again. For every social situation, there is an allowed time that you can hold a person’s look without being close, rude or dangerous. If you are on a lift, what stare time are you permitted? To answer this question, consider what you specially do. You are very likely to give other passengers a quick look to judge of them and to let them believe that you mean no harm. Since being close to another person suggests the possibility of communication, you need to give a signal telling others you want to be left alone. So you cut off eye contact, what Dr. Erring Goffman (1963) calls “a dimming of the lights.” You look down at the floor, at the lift door, or anywhere but into another passenger’s eyes. If you break the rule against staring at a stranger on lift, you’ll make other people gradually uncomfortable, and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself.
If you hold eye contact for more than 3 seconds, what are you telling another person? Much depends on the person and the situation. For instance, a man and a woman communicate interest in this matter. They may look at each other for about 3 seconds at a time, then drop their eyes down for 3 seconds, before letting their eyes meet again. But if one man gives another man a 3-second plus stare, he signals, “ I am interested in you,” or “You look strange and I am curious about you.” This type of stare often produces unfriendly feelings.
68. We can learn from the first paragraph that ___________.
A. every glance has its meaning
B. staring at a person is an expression of interest
C. a glance longer than 3 seconds is unacceptable
D. a glance carries more meaning than words
69. If you want to be left alone on a lift, the best thing to do is ___________.
A. to look into another person’s eyes honestly
B. to avoid eye contact with other passengers
C. to give a signal that your are dangerous
D. to keep a distance from other passengers
70. By “a dimming of the light”, Dr. Erring Goffman means “___________.
A. closing one’s eyes
B. turning off the lights
C. stopping staring at others
D. reducing stare time to the least
71. The passage mainly discusses ___________.
A. the limited time of eye contact
B the passing of ideas through eye contact
C. proper manners in different social situations
D. the role of eye contact in inter-personal communication
E
Dreams are of a form of mental activity that goes on when a person is asleep. Some dreams may be unrealistic and seem to make little sense, and others may be so realistic and clear that we are not sure that we are dreaming.
Dreams are a stage on which the unconscious mind can act out its needs, fears, desires and hopes while the conscious mind sleeps.
Mary, a young lady, had this dream: She was driving the family car, with her father as a passenger. She came to a big hill. It was too steep for her. She asked her father to drive up the hill.
One way to explain Mary’s dream is as a wish to be adult and independent. The hill is a problem she cannot answer for herself. She needs to be a child again and ask her father for help. She wants to be independent at the same time that she wants to depend on her parents.
After studying hundreds of dreams, Freud found that dreams have a language of their own. The language of dreams deals with symbols，where one thing really means something else. In Mary’s dream, the hill was not really a hill, but a big problem. Driving a car was a symbol for being adult and free. These symbols sometimes have meaning for just one person. But Freud found that the same symbols appear again and again in dreams of different people, at different times and in different places.
72. What does the second paragraph mean?
A. In a dream we show what we consciously need, fear, desire and hope.
B. In a dream we show what we unconsciously need, fear, desire and hope.
C. In a dream we unconsciously hide what we need, fear, desire and hope.
D. Some dreams may be clear enough for us to see what we consciously need, fear, desire and hope.
73. Which is correct according to the passage?
A. Mary was driving the old family car, because her father didn’t feel like driving up a high hill.
B. Although Mary is a grown-up lady, she unconsciously wants to depend on her father before a difficult problem.
C. Freud found that we dream when we are fast asleep.
D. We speak the language of dreams aloud when we are sleep.
74. What did Freud find after studying many dreams?
A. He found that the hill is a symbol for being adult and free.
B. He found that dreams have a language which no one can understand.
C. He found that one thing really means something else in dreams.
D. He found people speak different languages in dreams.
75. What can we tell from Mary’s dream of driving a car?
A. She wants to help her father with a difficult problem in her unconscious mind.
B. She wants to be independent and free in her unconscious mind.
C. She wants to get a new family car in her unconscious mind.
D. Mary is a shy woman though she can drive a car.

Students Like Optional Course
This term our school has offered more than 10 optional courses, of which students can choose two as they wish. The courses are given from 3:30 to 5:30 pm. every Tuesday afternoon and Friday afternoon.
Among them the most popular courses are spoken English, computer, arts, speeches and so on. Students take great interest in the optional courses. They say they have learned a lot that is not taught in the textbooks and they have got a great deal of practice. However, students are still not quite satisfied. They suggest more optional courses should be offered while their homework should be less. They also suggest more trips and visits should be organized so that they can learn more about what is going on outside school.

M: I’m so sick. I can’t tell up from down.
W: You’ve been sick quite a bit since you got here, haven’t you?
M: Well, for the past few weeks, the weather in this city has been changing a lot. It’s awful. One day it’s hot outside, and the next day it’s raining.
W: You just haven’t learned to predict the changing climate in this city, yet. Many newcomers complain about the same problem. I’ve been here for four years and I rarely get sick because I’m always dressed appropriately for the weather. But when I first came, that was a different story.
M: I know. There’s just a period of time when I’m still learning that’s the hardest to get through. I guess I’ll just have to buy lots of cold medicine in the meantime.
W: Actually, there is something you can do. I learned that there’s a weather hotline you can call in the morning that will tell you the temperature for the day.
M: Yes. I think I’ve learned of that hotline.

M: All right. I shall take it. Please have my initials “A.B.” engraved on the back of it.
W: Very well, sir. It will be done in a minute.
M: By the way, I’ve a watch here that wants mending. It doesn’t keep time; it loses.
W: Do you ever forget to wind it?
M: Oh, no, it isn’t that; I always wind it before going to bed.
W: Did you let it fall, sir?
M: Yes, I dropped it some time age, and it has been out of order ever since.
