There is not enough oil in the world now. As time goes by, it becomes less and less, so what are we going to do when it runs out? Perhaps we will go back to use horses, carriages and bicycles.
In the Second World War, some people didn’t use gas(气体) made from petroleum (石油) in their cars. They made gas from wood and plants instead. The car didn’t go fast, but they ran, so this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we can’t cut down all our trees to make gas; we need our trees for other things, too.
Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity to run our cars, but first we must make the electricity! Some countries have coal(煤炭) and they make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big, strong rivers, and they can use the power of water to turn turbines (涡轮机) and make electricity more easily and cheaply.
We are also able to get power from the ocean tides(潮). We put turbines into the mouth of the river. Then the tide comes in, the water turns the turbines and then it goes out, it turns them again.
Which of these ways will be used to run our cars in the future?
【小题1】When might people have to go back to use horses and carriages?
A.When they are poor. |
B.When they run out of oil. |
C.When they need more exercise. |
D.When there aren’t any big trees in the world. |
A.Water | B.Coal | C.Wood and plants | D.Tides |
A.2 | B.5 | C.4 | D.3 |
A.There is more petroleum than we can use now. |
B.Trees are needed for some other things besides making gas. |
C.We got electricity from ocean tides in the old days. |
D.Gas wasn’t used to run cars in the Second World War. |
A.how to run our cars |
B.what to do when oil runs out |
C.different types of gas |
D.the ways to make electricity |

解析试题分析:世界上没有足够的石油。随着时间的推移,它变得越来越少,所以我们要做什么当它用尽之后?或许我们将回头使用马,马车和自行车。第二次世界大战中,有些人没有使用气体从石油在他们的车。他们使气体从木材和植物来代替。汽车开不快,但他们跑,所以这也聊胜于无。然而,在未来,我们不能砍倒所有的树来制造天然气;我们需要我们的树木做其他的事情。
除了不同类型的气,我们也可以使用电力驱动汽车,但首先我们必须发电!一些国家有煤炭,他们用煤发电,但我们不会总是有煤。其他大国家,有强大的河流,他们可以利用水的力量推动涡轮机,使电力更容易和便宜。我们也能从海洋潮汐能发电。我们把涡轮机到河口。然后在涨潮,水就变成了涡轮机,然后出电。这些方法将用于运行我们的汽车在未来?
【小题1】细节理解题。问题:什么时候人们可能不得不回到使用马和车?分析第一自然段出示了答案,现在世界上没有足够多的石油。故选 B。
【小题2】细节理解题。问题:在第二次世界大战中人们用什么来制造蒸汽?原文:In the Second World War, some people didn’t use gas(气体) made from petroleum (石油) in their cars. They made gas from wood and plants instead.句意:第二次世界大战中,有些人没有使用气体从石油在他们的车。他们使用气体从木材和植物来代替。故选C。
【小题3】计算及细节理解题。问题:短文中提到多少种建议去发电?有三种,分别是:coal、strong rivers、the ocean tides。故选 D。
【小题4】细节理解题。通过这个信息,哪个信息是正确的?分析选项:A. There is more petroleum than we can use now.描述与事实相反。B. Trees are needed for some other things besides making gas.树除了制作汽体还有其他用途(不正确)C. We got electricity from ocean tides in the old days.在旧社会我们得到电是从海潮中来。(不正确)D. Gas wasn’t used to run cars in the Second World War.在二战中汽体没有用在小汽车上。(正确)故选B。
【小题5】细节理解题。这个短文主要讲述什么?总结全文得到描述石油用尽后我们做什么。故选 B。

Last Friday a storm swept through two villages in the New Territories, destroying fourteen homes. Seven others were so badly damaged that their owners had to leave them, and fifteen others had broken windows or broken roofs. One person was killed, several were badly hurt and taken to hospital, and a number of other people received smaller hurt. Altogether over two hundred people were homeless after the storm.
A farmer, Mr. Tan, said that the storm began early in the morning and lasted for over an hour.

Mrs. Woo Mei Fong said that her husband had just left for work when she felt that her house was moving. She ran outside at once with her children.
"There was no time to take anything," she said, "A few minutes later, the roof came down."
Soldiers helped to take people out of the flooded area and the welfare department (福利机构) brought them food, clothes and shelter.

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they will become weak, when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.
When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.
If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents may be blamed(责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories ? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things, they cannot write them down in a small notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories, so their memory is the whole time being exercised.
So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practise remembering things in a way as other people do.
【小题1】Someone can’t have a good memory if ________.
A.he can’t read or write |
B.he doesn’t use his memory |
C.his parents haven’t a good memory |
D.he doesn’t use his arms or legs for some time |
A.you can’t use them any more |
B.they will become stronger |
C.they become weak but they slowly become strong again |
D.they become weak and won’t become strong until you use them again |
A.Your memory works in the different way as your arms or legs |
B.Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you do not give it enough chance for practice |
C.Don’t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory |
D.A good memory comes from less practice |
A.his own fault | B.his parents’ fault |
C.his teachers’ fault | D.his grandmother’s fault |
A.how to use our arms or legs | B.how to read and write |

Traveling by train is usually not easy in China. It can be hard to get a ticket. When you’re traveling to the railway station, you look at your watch, for you are afraid you will miss your train.
But there is good news for people traveling between Beijing and Shanghai. Construction (建设) on the express railway (高速铁路) between the two cities started just before the Spring Festival of 2008. When it is finished by 2013, taking a train will be as easy as taking a bus.
“There will be trains every several minutes. Buying a ticket, getting through the checkpoint (检查站) and taking your seat, will take just 10 minutes,” said an engineer.
There may be high-speed trains running at 350 kilometers an hour. The travel time between the two cities will decrease from 10 to about 5 hours. The trains will carry twice the present number of passengers.
The new line will be 1,318 kilometers long and go across specially built bridges. It will run along side the present line. There will be 21 stations in Hebei, Tianjin, Shandong, Anhui and Jiangsu.
“The cost of traveling by the express railway may be around 800 yuan. That will be more expensive than an ordinary train, but cheaper than by air.” Said Zhang Xiaoling, a Jiangsu government official.
According to Zhang, the higher price is caused by the large cost of the railway project. At about 200 billion yuan, the project may be even more expensive than the Three Gorges Project (三峡工程).

Every place offers the possible dangers for getting hurt, even staying at work. We may face dangers like walking into desks or chairs, receiving unexpected cuts from a paper knife and so on. Industrial jobs have similar and more dangers like getting body parts hurt by machines or falling from a height.
No one wants to get hurt. Some accidents are avoidable(可避免的). Most accidents happen because of common things seen every day—an open desk drawer, a chair pulled out too far, water on the floor and so on. We slowly get used to these things we see every day and never think about what they could possibly become in the future.
Think about the following to prevent dangers to yourself and others:
1. If there is something you see and know may become a danger for yourself or others, do something about it. Close a desk drawer, clean up or put a sign over the water, turn off the power before leaving, and so on.
2. Get extra persons’ help and support on a task that is too hard for a single person.
3. Study the situation and think what could possibly happen and change if necessary. Do it before something happens and you won’t have to say some day, “ I should have… How sorry I feel…”
To use an old phrase “ Safety is everyone’s duty.” Looking down on it could lead to being hurt. Keep the rule in mind every day “ Everyone wants to go home in the same condition the came to work in –or better.”
