  I poured coffee in take-out cups and  38 waited on customers who’d point through the glass case and say, “No, not that one, the one two rows over.”

  Every afternoon around four o’clock, a group of  39   would burst into the shop. Adults would  40 __ in, see the crowd and pass on. I didn’t  41  if the kids waited for the bus in the shop.

I came to know them pretty well. The older girls would tell me about their boyfriends; the younger ones would talk about school. The boys were more quiet , choosing not to  42 their secrets, but still, they’d wait every day in the store 43  their bus came.

Sometimes I’d  44 bus fare when a ticket went missing --- always repaid the next day. When it snowed, the kids and I would wait anxiously for a very 45 bus.

I  47 a lot of doughnuts on snowy days. I enjoyed my pals(伙伴), but it never 48 to me that I played an important part in their lives—until one Saturday afternoon when a serious –looking man entered the store and asked if I was the girl who worked weekdays around four o’clock.

                  A

  Frank Lloyd Wright probably is the greatest architect that the United States has ever produced. He was very gifted and had a natural ability to design buildings. His buildings were not only beautiful, but they were also practical and useful. They fit their purposes very well. Wright’s churches, for example, make people feel like thinking and praying. His office buildings make people enjoy working, and his houses make people feel comfortable, at home. However, Frank Lloyd Wright’s beautiful, practical and useful buildings are not the only reason that he is famous. There is another reason.

  Frank Lloyd Wright is called the greatest American architect because he started an American style of architecture. Most of the architecture in the United States before Wright was really European, not American. Wright’s buildings do not look like old European buildings. They have their own style. Wright’s ideas about style are still used in the United States and in other parts of the world today.

  The most important idea in Frank Lloyd Wright’s style of architecture is that a building must fit its purpose and the land around it. His houses are often called “grass-land houses” because their lines are similar to the lines on the grassland. Both the lines of the grassland and the lines of Wright’s house are parallel(平行的) to the horizon, the place in the distance where earth and sky seem to meet. They are horizontal lines. Most European style houses, in contrast, have many vertical lines that form 90°angles with the horizon.

56.Frank Lloyd Wright’s style of architecture was ________.

    A.learned from some European countries 

B.also used outside the USA

    C.no longer popular  

    D.somewhat similar to the European style

57.Which of the following best describes the character of the houses that Wright designed?

    A.They were very large and beautiful.

    B.They were very comfortable.

    C.They could be used as churches.

    D.They were beautiful in design but not practical in use.

58.What is the most important idea in Wright’s style?

    A.Architectural design should match natural surroundings.

    B.A building must have grassland around it.

    C.American style in architecture should be different from European’s.

    D.Design should be more important than use.

59.The best title for this text would be _________.

A.The Father of American Architecture

B.“Grass-land” Houses Designed by Wright

    C.The History of American Architecture

    D.Wright’s Effect on World Architecture

                   B

     Last August, Joe and Mary Mahoney began looking at colleges for their 17-year-old daughter, Maureen. With a checklist of criteria in hand, the Dallas family looked around the country visiting half a dozen schools. They sought a university that offered the teenager’s intended major, one located near a large city, and a campus(校园) where their daughter would be safe.

    “The safety issue is a big one,” says Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn’t alone in his worries. On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns, and the same question was always asked: What about crime(犯罪)? But when college officials always gave the same answer — “That’s not a problem here.” — Mahoney began to feel uneasy.

    “No crime whatsoever?” comments Mahoney today.  “I just don’t buy it.” Nor should he: in 1999 the U.S. Department of Education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses. “Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to college,” says David Nichols, author of ‘Creating a Safe Campus’. “Campus crime mirrors crime in the rest of the nation.”

    But getting accurate information isn’t easy. Colleges must report crime statistics (统计数字) by law, but some hold back for fear of bad publicity, leaving the honest ones looking dangerous. “The truth may not always be obvious,” warns S. Daniel Carter of Security(安全)on Campus, Inc., the nation’s leading campus safety watchdog group.

   To help concerned parents, Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out about major crime issues and effective solutions.

60.   What is the text mainly about?

A. Exact campus crime statistics.        

B. Crimes on or around campuses.

C. Effective solutions to campus crime. 

D. Concerns about kids’ campus safety.

61.  It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crime because some      colleges ______.

    A. receive too many visitors         B. mirror the rest of the nation

    C. hide the truth of campus crime     D. have too many watchdog groups

62.  The underlined word “buy” in the third paragraph means ‘______’.

    A. want         B. admit            C. expect        D. believe

63.  We learn from the text that “the honest universities” __________.

A.    are specially protected by campus security 

B.    will report campus crimes as required

C.    are free from campus crime        

D.   enjoy very good publicity

                   C

For as long as humans have lived on the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a spoken language problem, communication can be carried out through sign language, in which gestures stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists and people unable to hear or speak have often had to turn to this form of expression. When gestures describe words or ideas, they can often be used internationally. When used for spelling words however, where each gesture stands for a single letter, people must share the same written language.

Body language sends ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either meaningfully or not. A wink can be a way of showing that the person is only joking. A nod means agreement, while shaking the head indicates disagreement.

Other forms of language can be found in Braille (a reading system of raised dots read with the fingertips used by the blind), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide and warn people. While language is the most common form of communication, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.

68.What does the author mainly want to say?

A. People can communicate in many different ways.

B. Everybody uses only one form of communication.

C. Language is invaluable to foreigners.

D. Non-spoken communication is of little value.

69. According to the text, which part of the body can be used to show you are joking?

  A. Fingers.         B. Eyes.     C. Head.       D. Feet.

70.What can’t be effectively communicated by sign language when people belong to different language groups?

    A. Spelling.       B. Idea.      C. Whole words.     D. Expressions.

71. How many different forms of communication are mentioned in the text?

    A. Three.        B. Five.         C. Six.           D. Nine.

    Scientists say they were able to reduce the effect of the AIDS with a drug first designed to treat other conditions. AIDS damages the protection system so the body cannot fight viruses(病毒) inside the body. At present, medicines can reduce HIV to levels low enough to keep people alive. But these drugs are not a cure. Small amounts of the virus still remain in human’s body. If it wakes up again, the virus can become active and begin to copy itself, so people must continue to take medicine.

    A new study has been carried out on four patients. They had already taken medicine for more than two years. The researchers first improved the effect of the drug. Then in addition, they gave the patient another one , valproic acid(丙戊酸). Valproic acid is used to help epilepsy(癫痫病)patients. Some people with depression(抑郁症) also take the drug to calm themselves down.

    But valproic acid has also been shown to block something that helps HIV, the AIDS virus, to hide. The patients took the medicine twice a day for three months.

Over this time, the researchers say the amount of the virus was reduced by nearly seventy-five percent in three of the four people. But the numbers returned to earlier levels when the treatment ended.

    Valproic acid has some serious dangers, especially for women who will soon give birth. Doctor Margolis says more study is needed into its use against AIDS. But the scientists do say that their early finding suggests that new methods will produce a cure of HIV in the future. Some other scientists, however, say it is too early to talk of cure for a virus that is so difficult to destroy. They say a cure would have to make the patients healthy again and the virus might not hide only in the protection system.

72. Which of the following is NOT a function (作用) of Valproic acid?

    A. To control the effects of epilepsy.

    B.. To block something that helps HIV.

    C. To calm down people with depression.

    D. To improve the strength of other drugs.

73. By saying that ‘it is too early to talk of cure for a virus that is so difficult to destroy’, the author means____________.

A.    Scientists hope to find the cure for AIDS soon

B.    Scientist don’t want to talk about their cure too early

C.    Scientists doubt a cure for AIDS can soon be found

D.   It’s too late to find the cure for a virus that is so difficult to destroy

74. This text most probably appears in _________.

    A. a newspaper                 B. a book on Chinese medicine        

C. a notice                 D. a tour guide book

75. We can infer from the text that ________.

    A. valproic acid can help all HIV patients

    B. usually the AIDs virus is not difficult to destroy

  C. the effects of valproic acid do not last forever

D. doctors have found an effective way to cure the AIDS
