16.Christmas was coming.Mr.Smith had no money (61)to buy (buy) any presents for his children.His wife was ill and he had spent a lot of money (62)on her medicine.The harvest was bad and everyone in his family was going to be hungry the next spring.He was quite (63)worried(worry) about it.
"We have only a cock,"said Mrs.Smith one day."You'd better take it to the town.Sell it there and buy some cakes and (64)candies(candy) for our children."
"That is a good idea!"the man said and caught the cock the next morning and put (65)it into a box.It was difficult to walk on the road,because it (66)was covered(cover) with thick snow.Two hours later,he was very tired and wanted to have a rest.He put the box on the ground and sat down.
"The air in the box must be old,"the man said to (67)himself(he)."I'd better let the cock walk outside for a while,(68)or/otherwise it'll die."
So he put the cock on the ground.Then,when he wanted to start off again,Mr.Smith tried to get the cock,but he found he couldn't catch it (69)any longer.
"How foolish you are!"Mr.Smith shouted (70)angrily(anger) at the cock."You can herald(预示) the break of day at night but you can't find the way to the town in the daytime!"

分析 圣诞节就要来了,史密斯先生因妻子生病花费大笔医药费,庄稼收成也差,没钱为孩子们准备礼物.史密斯夫人要他把一只公鸡最好去镇上卖掉为孩子们买点糕点糖果.第二天,路上积雪厚,很难走.两个小时过去了,他很累,决定稍作休息,就把箱子往地上一放坐了下来.他认为装公鸡的箱子肯定密不透风,把公鸡放了出来,但当他再次上路时,却再也找不到公鸡了.

66.was covered  67.himself  68.or/otherwise  69.any  70.angrily
61.to buy  考查不定式.have sth to do 意为"有…事要做",即:史密斯先生没钱为孩子们买礼物.
62.on  考查介词.spend time/money on sth.意为"在…上花费时间(金钱)".
63.worried  考查形容词.be动词后接形容词作表语.be worried about意为"对…担心,忧虑".
64.candies  考查名词复数.candy意为"糖果",是可数名词,要用复数形式.
65.it 考查代词.it代指前文提到的cock.
66.was covered  考查动词语态.it与cover之间是动宾关系,要用一般过去时的被动语态.
67.himself  考查代词.此处表示"自言自语地说",即say to himself.
68.or/otherwise 考查连词.根据句意,此处意为"(用于警告和忠告)否则".
69.any 考查固定搭配.not…any longer意为"不再".
70.angrily 考查副词. shout是动词,要用副词修饰,形容词angry的副词是angrily.

6.As we all know clothes are necessary and important for human beings.If someone is asked why he or she wears clothes,the answer will probably be"To keep warm and to cover my body".These are the basic reasons clothes are worn,but people also want to look attractive and appear successful to others.
    If people only wore clothes for warmth and to cover their bodies,most clothing would be simple and cheap.In most Western countries,however,clothing is sometimes very expensive.The main reason for this is not the cost the fabric (布料) or the cost of making the clothes.The clothes are expensive because of fashion (时尚).Successful businessmen,for example,often wear very expensive suits,shirts and ties.Sometimes they pay thousands of dollars for a suit and hundreds of dollars for a tie.It's still just a suit and tie but they pay these prices because of the famous name of the designer.A suit costing much less would be just as warm and would cover the wearer's body just as well.
 Fashion is constantly (不断地) changing,which means that people who want to be fashionable have to buy new clothes every few months,even if last month's clothes have only been worn once or twice.Some people have wardrobes (衣柜) full of clothes that have hardly been worn but are no longer in fashion.Being fashionable,therefore,can be a very expensive pastime!

How wrong I was!The misunderstandings(误解) began at the airport.I was looking for a public telephone to give my American friend Penny a call and tell her that I had arrived.A friendly old man saw me looking lost and asked if he could help me.
"Yes,"I said,"I want to give my friend a ring."
"Well,that's nice,"he said."Are you getting married?But aren't you a bit(点) young?"
"Who is talking about marriage?"I replied."I only want to give my friend a ring to tell her I've arrived.Can you tell me where there's a phone box?"
"Oh!"he said,"There's a phone downstairs."
When at last we met,Penny explained the misunderstandings to me.
"Don't worry,"she said to me."I had so many difficulties at first.There are lots of words which the Americans use differently in meaning from British.You'll soon get used to all the funny things they say.Most of the time British and American people understand each other!"

15.Recently,a small group of birdwatchers spent three weeks around Mount Vernon,the home of the first president of the United States,George Washington.They were busy counting wild birds on Mount Vernon's wetlands,south of Washington,D.C.They began in the middle of December and worked until the beginning of January.
The Audubon Society's first"Christmas Bird Count"took place 115years ago in 1900.At that time,a man named Frank Chapman suggested a new Christmas tradition--that people count birds instead of shooting them around the holiday.
Birds are one of the surest indicators--or barometers--of the health of the ecology.Last year,the bird count recorded over 66million birds of 2,403different species.
Gary Langham is chief scientist with the National Audubon Society.
"The Audubon climate report says that half the birds in North America--314out of 588species--are seriously threatened by climate change.The impacts sort of cut across all birds,all sizes,all kinds,all places".Information from the bird counts has shown that birds are staying farther north during the winter months because of warmer weather.Birdwatcher Jaime Reidy has noted the difference close to Washington,in the state of Virginia."You get to see them at odd times of the year,a little earlier,staying a little later."
Gary Langham says other conditions are affecting bird populations."You can imagine the birds that live along the beach or along the rocky shore line as sea levels are rising around the world. That is impacting them,you know,doubly so."David Yarnold is president of the Audubon Society.In his words,"Christmas Bird Count data is becoming important not only in documenting current climate change,but in predicting the future effects of climate change on North American bird populations.If we know what to expect,we can start taking actions now to do something about it."

51.The underlined word"That"in last paragraph probably refers toD.
A.The beach   
B.The rocky shore line.
C.The time of year
D.The rise of sea level
52.The main idea of the passage should beA.
A.Climate change is affecting bird migration
B.People should take actions to stop global warming
C.The bird count records the number of birds every year
D.Birds are one of the surest indicators of health ecology.
