12．Like most July days，it was hot．I stepped into a tiny ice-cream shop to cool off with a chocolate ice-cream．It was an old woman bent over a table near the door．Her back was so badly twisted that her face nearly touched the tabletop．I sat sown facing her couple of tables away．
"Poor woman，"I thought"What does she get out of life？Shy God let people live so long past their prime？"
As I thought，another aged lady entered the shop and sat down with her．Soon the two of them were talking about childhood days．They talked of how little the shop had changed in 70years…In minutes，the two of them were trembling with laughter．
I looked again at the first woman，then in the mirror on a nearby wall，catching a picture of myself．I was wearing a dirty shirt．She was well dressed in white，her hands sparking with gold rings．I was sad．She was laughing，smiling．I was putting the pieces of my life together．She had millions of wonderful memories to recall．I sat alone．She was sharing the day with a good friend．I was secretly worried about getting old．She was old，but it wasn't hurting her．
As I left the shop，I thought of my foolish question about God letting people live past their prime．Why，that woman was more alive，more sensitive to life than I was．Age has not bent her spirit．（www．nmet168．com）

C．To show that old age does not mean being short of spirit．
D．To make the reader have a pity on the old people．

A．changed a lot in the past           
B．started its business 70years ago．
C．had only a couple of tables

C．She was more alive and sensitive to life than the writer．
D．People should not be allowed to live when they are too old．

分析 文章大意是作者见到一个佝偻着背的老人，一开始对她充满了同情，认为她活在世上是不快乐的．但后来经过观察，作者发现老人其实比自己好过得有滋有味，年老并不意味着不幸．

解答 6．C主旨大意题．全文拿老人和作者比较，一个年轻，一个年老，但年轻的生活不怎么样，年老的却过得有滋有味．就是要表明年老并不意味着缺乏生活的精神．
7．B．推理判断题．根据文章第三段第二句话They talked of how little the shop had changed in 70 years…说明这家店有七十年历史了．
8．A推理判断题．根据第五段，the two of them were trembling with laughter．说明C是错误的．再根据She was well dressed in white，her hands sparking with gold rings．说明老人生活得很美满．C是正确的．根据整个第五段的描述，可以推断B、D是正确的．
9．C细节题．根据文章最后一句话that woman was more alive，more sensitive to life than I was．Age has not bent her spirit．那个女人比我更有活力，对生活更敏感．年龄并没有动摇她的精神．故选C．

3．Once a farmer's donkey （驴） fell into a deep well．The animal cried loudly for hours，but the farmer couldn't figure out what to do（61）with\aboutit．Finally，he decided that the animal was old and that the well needed to be covered anyway，so he（62）thought（tink） the donkey wasn't worth saving．
Then，he invited some of his neighbors to come over and help（63）him．They all took a shovel （铁铲） and began to put dirt into the well．
At first，the donkey realized what was happening and cried （64）pitifully（pitiful）．Then，to everyone's surprise，the donkey became quiet．A few shovel loads later，the farmer looked down into the well and was astonished at （65）what he saw．
Each shovel of dirt hit its back，but the donkey was doing something（66）amazing（amaze）．It was shaking the dirt off and taking a step up．（67）As\Whenthe neighbors continued to put more dirt on top of the animal，it would shake the dirt off and take one more step up．
Pretty soon everyone was surprised as the donkey stepped up over the edge of （68）thewell and ran off happily!
When life sometimes （69）puts（ put） dirt on you，the best way of getting out of the well is to shake the dirt off and take a step up．Each of your troubles is a stepping stone．You can get out of the deepest well just（70）by never giving up!
7．The World Bank，the United Nations and the London School of Health and Medicine did a study on hand-washing around the world．（46）BThey said that hand-washing with soap could be among the most effective ways to reduce infectious （传染） disease．（47）D
 This is because hand-washing destroys germs （细菌） from other people，animals or objects a person has touched．When people get germs on their hands，they can infect themselves by touching their eyes，nose or mouth．Then these people can infect other people．
According to the experts，the easiest way to catch a cold is to touch your nose or eyes after someone nearby has sneezed or coughed．（48）GHand-washing is especially important before and after preparing food，before eating and after using the toilet．The experts say it is also a good idea to wash your hands after handling money and after sneezing or coughing．（49）CThe most effective way to wash your hands is to rub them together while using soap and warm water．Be sure to rub all areas of the hands for about ten to fifteen seconds．（50）E．Then put your hands under running water and dry them．

A．Experts say you must stay away from those who fall ill．
B．They found that 1，000，000lives could be saved each year if people washed their hands with soap often．
C．And it is especially important when someone in your home is sick．
D．Doctors say many diseases can be prevented by hand-washing．
E．The rubbing action helps remove germs．
F．Remember to wash your hands before eating．
G．Another way to become sick is to eat with dirty hands．
17．A few years ago，pop poets such as Murray Lachlan Young began to set poetry to rock music with some surprising results．People thought that poetry was the new rock‘n'roll．However，despite the brief popularity of a few pop poets，poetry and pop music didn't seem t o mix．But are they really so different？
If you look back at the origins of poetry，there is a strong connection between poems and popular music．In Greek mythology，for example，the muse （女神） Erato is pictured with a lyre （里拉琴） in her hand，and looks just like the ancestor of the modern rock star with his electric guitar．In addition，the poets Shelley and Byron were as famous in the nineteenth century as the pop stars of today．
But despite their common origins，there are many differences between poetry and pop music．Pop songs are always written for a public performance，whereas poetry often isn't．And the lyrics in pop songs sometimes have less rhythm than those in poetry．This is because the music provides the rhythm rather than the words．Pop ly rics are also simpler and often keep on saying the same thing．This repetition works well in a performance and means that pop songs are easier for people to sing and learn by heart．
Both songs and poems tell a story or talk about feelings．Songs in particular deal with the different stages in a relationship，such as falling in love or breaking up．The words and ideas in songs are usually easier to understand than those in"serious"poetry．However，talented performers like Paul McCartney，or newer stars like Robbe Williams，often give simple songs more expression when they perform them．And some of the best lines from pop lyrics are as beautiful as poetry．
So although pop music and poetry have many differences，they do have one important thing in common：the power to make us think about how we feel．
32．Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 4？D
A．Songs and poems are equa lly beautiful．
B．The main theme of songs is about relationship．
C．Songs tell stories but poems tell about feelings．
D．Songs and poems express a similar message．
33．According to the article，what is the difference between poetry and pop songs？C
A．Pop songs are not always performed before an audience．
B．Pop songs are more difficult to understand than poetry．
C．The words in pop songs are repeated over and over again．
D．There is more rhythm in pop songs than poetry．
34．What did Murray Lachlan Young do a few years ago？A
A．He had rock music and poetry combined．
B．He surprised people with his beautiful style of writing．
C．He wrote beautiful music for some famous poems．
D．He invented a new kind of poem for his fans．
35．What does the writer say about talented performers today？C
A．They look at poetry to find ideas for their songs．
B．They think their songs are more serious than poetry．
C．They give songs more meaning when they sing them．
D．They consider themselves to be more popular than poets．

1．Scientists in Mexico have just begun a new study of one of the world's biggest pyramids：the Pyramid of the Sun，north of Mexico City．They're putting lots of small，high-tech machines under the pyramid to try to unlock some of its secrets．For thousands of years，people have tried to uncover the secrets o the pyramids．
The people who built the pyramids made lots of secret doors and rooms to stop robbers from finding the treasures inside．However，there always have been some smart thieves in history．Now，almost all of Egypt's pyramids have been robbed，including the Great Pyramid of Khufu，which is the largest pyramid in the world．It is the only one of the ancient wonders of the world that is still standing．
In AD 820，an Arab king named Abdullah AL Manum got a group of workers to dig their way into the Great Pyramid and have a look．Inside the pyramid，they found three rooms---the Queen's Chamber，the Grand Gallery and the King's Chamber．But to their surprise，the men didn't find the treasures they wanted．The Queen's and King's Chambers were both empty!Where were the King's mummy and his treasures？Had someone already taken them away？The huge stone doors at the pyramid's entrance were still closed when AL Manum's men went inside．How had the thieves got in and out？
Since then，many people have gone inside the Great Pyramid to have a look or to try to take things．But still，no other chambers or walkways have been found．
In 2002 an American team made the most recent visit to the Great Pyramid．Scientists sent a robot into the pyramid，but they only found a mysterious locked stone door．
28．The first two paragraphs were written to show thatD．

B．ancient Egyptian emperors were cruel
C．construction workers led a hard life in ancient Egypt

C．Abdullah AL Manum took the King's mummy and his treasures away．
D．Scientists found a mysterious locked stone door to the Great Pyramid．
30． What would be the best title for the text？C
A．The Pyramid of the Sun
B．The Great Pyramid of Khufu
C．A Mysterious Locked Stone Door
D．Unlocking the secrets of Pyramid．
