12.It was a winter day; the falling snow blocked out the sun.The wind challenged the car and joined other forces of winter-slippery roads and poor visibility to almost take out little car off course.
"Do you feel safe?Should I turn back?"
"No,"my wife Jennifer replied,"I really want to see this show in Toronto.I have faith in your driving."
We were coming down the hill on the highway.Suddenly there was a noticeable increase in the force of snow.I felt the car stagger(摇晃)slightly to the left and then to the right.We were in the far left lane; the bus was in the middle.Our little Neon slid into the side of the bus at about midpoint.Suddenly Jennifer was cheek-to-cheek with the side of the bus.She screamed in horror.Bouncing(反弹)off the bus,our car then hit onto the barrier in the middle of the highway.Then from the barrier we rebounded back to the side of the bus.Jennifer screamed and then we were back to the barrier again.
Finally,the bus moved far enough ahead and we just caught the rear bumper(保险杠),which caused the car to spin 180degrees so we were now facing oncoming traffic.There was nothing I could do but wait to be knocked down.Jennifer whispered,"I guess this is how it feels just before you die.I wonder if it hurts."In that instant,I heard a voice inside my head."Relax,let go and everything will be alright."So I took my hand off the steering wheel,took a deep breath and just sat there.
Thankfully,we somehow ended up on the side of the road facing in the right direction in our now beat-up Neon.Since the car was not completely off the road,I restarted it and moved us safely.We were not hurt at all.
24.The author intended to tell us in Paragraph 1thatC.
A.he drove in the wrong direction
B.it's dangerous to drive in the winter
C.the weather was rather bad that day
D.his car broke down owing to the heavy snow
25.What can we know about Jennifer?B
A.She headed for Toronto to hold a show.
B.The experience frightened her to death
C.Her cheeks were badly hurt in the accident
D.Her poor driving ability caused the accident.
26.How many times did the car hit the bus?C
A.Once      
B.Twice     
C.Three times.
D.Four times.
27.What saved the couple from danger?D

2.At the end of every British summer I find myself praying for a proper winter,one that will allow a bit of fun:sledging,snowballing,snowman-building.I'm not very demanding; I don't need amazing downhill skiing and the Cresta Run.What I want is a few days out with the kids.And,much as I like blue skies and sun in summer,I'd exchange it every time for frozen ponds,a hillside covered in fresh snow and ice hanging off the houses.Maddy,11,wants the same and so,instead of waiting and hoping,we are going to make sure.We are going to Sweden.
Winter fun in Sweden is a bit more advanced than in most of the UK.They do snowshoeing,ice-fishing,snow house-building and so on.They also do lots of Father Christmas matters,which Maddy didn't want:"I'm too old for that kind of nonsense,Dad."Above all,what Maddy wanted was dogs with puppies.She's not too old for that.
We flew to Lulea,a city at the top of the finger of Baltic Sea that reaches out to the north between Sweden and Finland,almost touching the Arctic Circle,then transferred,with some other winter-hungry families,to woodland houses by the sea.There was plenty of snow and ice,but the guides were keeping a nervous eye on the instrument for measuring temperature,which was dangerously close to zero.
"Normally,we are 10℃below,"said Roger,our guide,who was also handing out our equipment for the days ahead:snowshoes,boots,gloves and so on.A holiday that provides all the necessary outfits will save you a fortune.

6.The time of year a baby is born can shape what profession they will embark on(从事) in later life,a new study has suggested.
Being born in a certain month appears to indicate the statistical likelihood of what job a person will end up with,the study by the Office for National Statistics found.
Researchers have uncovered that the month in which babies are born could also affect everything from intelligence to length of life.
A child born December is more likely to become a dentist while someone whose birthday falls in January will tend to a debt collector,they found.A February birth appears to increase the chances of being an artist while March babies appear to go on to become pilots.Meanwhile,April and May are said to have a fairly even spread of professions,births in the summer months mean a much lower chance of becoming a high-earning football player,doctor or dentist.
The study was got by researchers who analyzed the birth months of people in 19 separate occupations using information from the last survey,the Daily Mail reported.Although these trends may be difficult to explain,correlations between birth months and specific health problems have a scientific basis.
Spring babies are at greater risk of illnesses including schizophrenia,Alzheimer's disease,asthma and autism.
They may also be less clever than classmates born in other parts of the year.
45.From the passage we can know if a baby is born on February.20,it will probably become aC.
A.footballer       B.doctor         C.pianist      D.teacher

A.close connection             
B.great influence 
C.effective solution             
D.reasonable conclusion  
48.What's the purpose of this passage?D
