5.One sentence from the news in Washington has remained in my mind since a trip last summer:"When you see people run against the crowd escaping(61)fromthe danger,they are (62)probably(probable) firefighters,police or journalists.
I think this is most true for the firefighters.Whenever and wherever (63)disasters(disaster) happen-9/11 Attacks in New York 14 years ago or the explosion in Tianjin on Wednesday night-it is always the firefighters(64)that/whotake the lead to run to the very center,saving lives by(65)risking(risk) their own.I cried today near the explosion site,not because of the smoke from the ongoing fire(66)butbecause of a short message a firefighter sent to a trusted friend that went viral online.It reads,"If I cannot make it,my father is(67)yours(you); and please remember(68)to sweep(sweep) my mother's tomb."I was thrilled later to learn that he did make it
"Everyone knows it's (69)dangerous(danger) to be a firefighter.But he has always liked it and has done it for 12 years,"his father said."He survived this time,but no one knows what(70)will happen(happen) next time."

分析 本文主要讴歌了消防员.大家都知道,当一个消防队员的危险性.比如:14年前的纽约9/11系列袭击或是星期三午夜发生的天津爆炸,总是消防人员率先冲向出事的中心,冒着自己的生命危险去拯救生命.

解答 61.from 考查介词.escape from意为"逃离…",是固定搭配.
62.probably 考查副词.修饰句子用副词.  
63.disasters 考查名词复数.disaster是可数名词,根据谓语动词happen,主语要用复数形式disasters.
64.that/who  考查定语从句.分析句子结构可知这是一个定语从句,先行词the firefighters在从句中作主语,用关系代词that/who.
65.risking 考查动名词. by是介词,后接动词时用动名词形式.
66.but 考查固定搭配.not …but …意为"不是…而是…",连接对等的成份. 
67.yours 考查代词.根据句意:如果我回不来,我的父亲就是你的父亲.yours=your father.   
68.to sweep  考查动词不定式.remember to do sth.意为"记得去做某事",用动词不定式作宾语. 
69.dangerous  考查形容词.It is+形容词+to do 意为"做某事是…的",用形容词作表语.
70.will happen 考查动词时态.根据句中状语next time,用一般将来时态.

4.Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys?
The answer depends largely(61)on cultural values as well as personal experiences.To the Egyptians,green was a color(62)which/thatrepresented the hope and joy of spring,while for Muslims,it means heaven.Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures.During the Spring Festival in China,children (63)are given(give) money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year.For many nations,blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs.Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect (64)themselves against evils(灾祸).
People's(65)choice(choose) of colors is also influenced by their bodies'reactions toward them.Green is said to be (66)a most restful color.It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally (67)and physically.People(68)working  (work) in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches.
Red can cause a person's blood pressure to rise and increase people's appetites(食欲).Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant.And many commercial websites will have a red"Buy Now"button because red is a color that (69)easily(easy) catches a person's eye.
Blue is another calming color.Unlike red,blue is believed to cause people to lose appetite.So(70)if/when you want to eat less,some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.
16.To err is human.To blame the other guy is even more human.
  Common sense is not all that common.
  Why tell the truth when you can come up with a good excuse?
  These three popular misquotes (戏谑的引语) are meant to be jokes,and yet they tell us a lot about human nature.To err,or to make mistakes,is indeed a part of being human,but it seems that most people don't want to accept the responsibility for the problem.Perhaps it is the natural thing to do.The original quote about human nature went like this:To err is human,to forgive,divine (神圣的).This saying mirrors a deal people should be forgiving of others'mistakes.Instead,we tend to do the opposite---find someone else to pass the blame on to.However,taking responsibility for something that went wrong is a making of great maturity.
Common sense is what we call clear thought.Having common sense means having a good general plan that will make things work well,and it also means staying with the plan.Common sense tells you that you take an umbrella out into a rainstorm,but you leave the umbrella home when you hear a weather forecast for sunshine.Common sense does not seem to be common for large organizations,because there are so many things going on that one person cannot be in charge of everything.People say that in a large company,"the right hand does not know what the left hand is doing."
And what is wrong with a society that thinks that making up a good excuse is like creating a work of art?One of the common problems with making excuses is that people,especially young people get the idea that it's okay not to be totally honest all the time.There is a corollary (直接推论) to that:if good excuse is"good"even if it isn't honest,then where is the place of the truth?
28.According to the passage,which of the following seems the most human?D
A.To search for truth.
B.To achieve one's ideal.
C.To make fun of others'mistakes.
D.To criticize others for one's own error.
29.According to the author,what is a sign of a man's maturity?B
A.Doing things his own way.
B.Bearing responsibility for his mistakes.
C.Making as few mistakes as possible.
D.Thinking seriously about his wrongdoing.
30.What is the author's opinion about a good excuse?D
A.Making a good excuse is sometimes a better policy.
B.Inventing a good excuse needs creative ideas.
C.A good excuse is as rewarding as honesty.
D.Bitter truth is better than a good excuse.
31.What would be the best title for his passage?A
A.Mirror of Human Nature          
B.To Blame or to Forgive
C.A Mark of Maturity             
D.Truth or Excuse.
13.The largest earthquake (magnitude 里氏 9.5)of the 20th century happened on May 22,1960 off the coast of South Central Chile (智利).
    It generated (生成) one of the most destructive Pacific-wide tsunami (海啸).Near the generating area,both the earthquake and the tsunami were very much destructive,particularly in the coastal area from Concepcion to the south end of Isia Chiloe.The largest tsunami damage occurred at Isia Chiloe-the coastal area closest to the epicenter (震中).Huge tsunami waves measuring as high as 25 meters arrived within 10 to 15 minutes after the earthquake,killing at least two hundred people,sinking all the boats,and flooding half a kilometer inland.
    There was large damage and loss of life at Concepcion,Chile's top industrial city.Near the city of Valdivia,the earthquake and following aftershocks generated landslides which killed 18 people.At me port city of Valparaiso,a city of 200,000,many buildings collapsed.A total of 130,000 houses were destroyed-one in every three in the earthquake zone and nearly 2,000,000 people were left homeless.
    Total damage losses,including to agriculture and to industry,were estimated to be over a half billion dollars.The total number of death related with both the tsunami and the earthquake was never found accurately for the region Estimates of deaths reached between 490 to 5,7002 with no distinction (差别) as to how many deaths were caused by the earthquake and how many were caused by the tsunami.However,it is believed that most of the deaths in Chile were caused by the tsunami.

10.Phil White has just returned from an 18,000-mile,around-the-world bicycle trip.White had two reasons for making this epic journey.First of all,he wanted to use the trip to raise money for charity,which he did.He raised£70,000 for the British charity,Oxfam.White's second reason for making the trip was to break the world record and become the fastest person to cycle around the world.He is still waiting to find out if he has broken the record or not.
White set off from Trafalgar Square,in London,on 19th June 2004 and was back 299 days later.He spent more than l,300 hours in the saddle(车座) and destroyed four sets of tyres and three bike chains.He had the adventure of his life crossing Europe,the Middle East,India,Asia,Australia,New Zealand and the Americas.Amazingly,he did all of this with absolutely no support team.No jeep carrying food,water and medicine.No doctor.Nothing!Just a bike and a very,very long road.
 The journey was lonely and desperate at times.He also had to fight his way across deserts,through jungles and over mountains.He cycled through heavy rains and temperatures of up to 45 degrees,all to help people in need.There were other dangers along the road.In Iran,he was chased by armed robbers and was lucky to escape with his life and the little money he had.The worst thing that happened to him was having to cycle into a headwind on a road that crosses the south of Australia.For l,000 kilometers he battled against the wind that was constantly pushing him.This part of the trip was slow,hard work and depressing,but he made it in the end.Now Mr.White is back and intends to write a book about his adventures.

17.Electrical devices(仪器)could soon use power made by human energy.Scientists say they have developed an experimental device that produces electricity from the physical movement of a person walking,British scientist Max Donelan and other scientists in Canada and the United States developed the device.
The device connects to a person's knee.As the person walks,the device captures energy each time the person slows down.To do this,the device helps with the slowing down movement of the leg,the movements of the walking person push parts of a small machine that produces electricity.Using the device,an adult walking quickly could produce thirteen watts of electricity in just a minute.Donelan says walking at that speed could produce enough power to operate a laptop computer for six minutes.
There are several possible uses for the device.Developers say it could help people who work in areas without electricity to operate small computers.The device could also he used in hospitals to operate heart pacemakers,it could even be used to assist in the movement of robotic arms and legs.
The experimental version of the device weighs about one and a half kilograms,but it is too costly for most people to buy,but the researchers hope to make a lighter,less costly version,An improved version should be ready in one year.
The developers hope the device will one day help developing countries; nearly twenty five prcent of people around the world live without electric power.
A similar product was invented in 2005by Larry Rome of the University of Pennsylvania,He created a bag carried on a person's back that also produces power from walking.The knee device does not produce as much electricity as the bag,but the bag requires the walker to carry a load of twenty to thirty kilograms.
32.The second paragraph mainly talks aboutB
A.who developed the device
B.how the device works
C.several possible uses for the devices
D.how much electricity the device can produce
33.What is the disadvantage of the experimental version of the device?C
A.It is too heavy for the walker to bear
B.It is too complex for people to use
C.It is too expensive for most people to afford              
D.It will slow down one's walking speed
34.Compared with the device designed by Larry Rome,this new deviceA
A.produces power without adding more loads to the walker
B.can produce more power in a much shorter time
C.needs to be equipped with a battery        
D.can help the walker walk faster
35.What would be the best title for the passage?C
A.First device powered by walking will soon be on the market
B.Advanced technology brings in a new way to operate heart pacemakers
C.Device gives new meaning to the idea of power walking
D Human energy will become a main source of electricity.
