My friend couldn’t help 46 and told me that“carpool”refers to the lane that only the cars with two or more 47 can drive in. I felt rather embarrassed on 48 that.

At midnight, several hours after she had left Newfoundland, she ran into bad weather. To make things worse, her altimeter (高度表) failed and she didn’t know how high she was flying. At night, and in a storm, a pilot is in great difficulty without an altimeter. At times, her plane nearly plunged (冲) into the sea. Just before dawn, there was further trouble. Amelia noticed flames (火焰) coming from the engine. Would she be able to reach land? There was nothing to do except keep going and hope. In the end, Amelia Earhart did reach Ireland, and for the courage she had shown, she was warmly welcomed in England and Europe. When she returned to the United States, she was honored by President Hoover at a special dinner in the White House. From that time on, Amelia Earhart was famous. What was so important about her flight? Amelia Earhart was the first woman to fly the Atlantic Ocean alone, and she had set a record of fourteen hours and fifty-six minutes. In the years that followed, Amelia Earhart made several flights across the United States, and on each occasion she set a new record for flying time. Amelia Earhart made these flights to show that women had a place in aviation (航空) and that air travel was useful. 56.

A Dangerous Flight from North America to England. B Earthquakes are the shaking, rolling or sudden shock of the earth’s surface. Earthquakes happen along “fault lines” in the earth’s crust. Earthquakes can be felt over large areas although they usually last less than one minute. Earthquakes cannot be predicted —— although scientists are working on it! Most of the time, you will notice an earthquake by the gentle shaking of the ground. You may notice hanging plants swaying or objects wobbling on shelves. Sometimes you may hear a low rumbling noise or feel a sharp jolt. A survivor of the 1906 earthquake in San Francisco said the sensation was like riding a bicycle down a long flight of stairs. The intensity（强度）of an earthquake can be measured. One measurement is called the Richter scale. Earthquakes below 4.0 on the Richter scale usually do not cause damage, and earthquakes below 2.0 usually can’t be felt. Earthquakes over 5.0 on the scale can cause damage. A magnitude 6.0 earthquake is considered strong and a magnitude 7.0 is a major earthquake. The Wenchuan Earthquake, which hit Sichuan Province in 2008, was magnitude 7.8. Earthquakes are sometimes called temblors, quakes, shakers or seismic activity. The most important thing to remember during an earthquake is to DROP, COVER and HOLD ON. So remember to DROP to the floor and get under something for COVER and HOLD ON during the shaking. 60. Which statement about earthquakes is Not correct? A. Earthquakes are the result of the sudden shock of the earth’s surface. B. Earthquakes usually can be felt because they can last for a long time. C. There are usually some signs for people to notice an earthquake. D. People can feel an earthquake over 6.0 because it is very strong. 61. According to the passage, when the earthquake happened, a survivor of the 1906 earthquake in San Francisco_______. A. was riding a bicycle B. was just climbing the stairs C. heard a low rumbling noise D. felt like riding a bicycle 62. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Most of the time, people can not feel or predict the earthquakes. B. Earthquakes are sometimes called temblors, quakes shakers or seismic activity. C. The Wenchuan Earthquake, which hit Sichuan Province in 2008 caused serious damage. D. When an earthquake happens, it is important to drop on the floor immediately.

A. ride a bike through the Zoo B. have a picnic on the Zoo grounds C. take food with plastic bags D. take their pets along D When the six very best students from different cities in Guangdong Province all together chose universities in Hong Kong; when the very best students of Beijing picked up HK University while giving up the nearby Beijing or Qinghua University; when the highest enrollment(录取) rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is. Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Beijing or Qinghua University”. But now no one could give the exact reaction without hesitation. The only sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students. It’s no doubt to call this HK craze (狂热), which is even out of the expectation of those HK universities themselves. How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of Beijing and Qinghua and attract so many mainland students? First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can receive the sum scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great. Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and carry out bilingual (双语) education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is another attraction for mainland students. Furthermore, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students. Can mainland top universities like Beijing or Qinghua University be calm as before when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it. The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement of education in China. After the awakening and action-taking of mainland universities, they can perform better together with HK universities. At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees (学费) are among students’ top concern when they are choosing universities. It’s time to move. 67.What is the passage mainly talking about?
A. Some thoughts brought by the enrollment of HK universities. B. Higher education in Hong Kong. C. The competition between HK University and Beijing University. D. The fall of mainland universities. 68. Top students from mainland apply for HK universities because________. A. many students now would love to study abroad to get a better experience B. they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities C. HK Universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further study D. Beijing University has lost its worldwide reputation 69. What is the author’s attitude toward the competition brought by HK universities? A. The government should take relevant measures to stop this unfair competition. B. Mainland universities had better lower their tuition fees and win back the top students. C. Universities both in mainland and in HK would get an entire improvement during the competition. D. It may probably cause a complete loss to both sides in the end. 70. From the passage we can see HK universities________. A. didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainland B. didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popular C. have strict enrollment rules and only 1out of 48 students can get the chance to study there D. are proud of their teaching staff and facilities 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分,满分10分）(请将答案写在题后的指定位置) 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 People living in the country enjoy several advantages that people living in the city cannot enjoy. ____71______They make friends with trees and stones.
