I fled, but in vain. He overtook me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of the pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys. “Do you know what you have done?” they said, “It’s Amery; he is in Grade Six.

I was frightened and felt ashamed. How could I tell his position when be was wrapped in a bath towel and so small. I decided to apologize immediately. “I am sorry,” I said, “I mistook you for a Grade Four boy. You are so small. ” He didn’t seem pleased at all, so I added in a most brilliant word, “My father, who is a great man, is also small.” At this he laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, signified the incident was closed.

It was
Monday. Mrs. Smith’s dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house.
Considering
that there was no better way. Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the
following words on it: “Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the
paper to her dog and said gently: “Take this to the butcher(*person whose job
is selling meat). and he’s going to give you your lunch today.”
Holding
the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher’s. It gave the
paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was
really the lady’s handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was
very happy, and ate the meat up at once.
At noon,
the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again.
After reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more.
The next
day, the dog came again exactly at noon. And as usual, it brought a piece of
paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at paper, and
gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog as one of his customers
(*people who buy sth. from a shop).
But the
dog came again at four o’clock. And the same thing happened once again. To the
butcher’s more surprise, it came for the third time at six o’clock, and brought
with it a third piece of paper. The butcher felt a bit puzzled. He said to
himself, “This is a small dog. Why does Mrs. Smith give it so much meat to eat
today?”

at the piece of paper, he found that there were not any words on it!

words in it could bring it meat
B. the butcher would give the meat to
it whenever he saw it
C. Mrs. Smith would pay for the meat it
got from the butcher
D. a piece of paper could bring it half
a pound of meat
62. At the end of the story, you’ll find that _______.
A. the dog was clever enough to write
on the paper

butcher’s any more

Started in 1636,
In the early years,
these schools were much alike(*similar).Only young men went to college. All the
students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, Greek and
Hebrew. Little was known about science then, and one kind of school could teach
everything that was known about the world. When the students graduated(*毕业),most of them became
ministers or teachers.
In 1782, Harvard
started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later,
lawyers could receive their training(*训练)in Harvard’s law school. In
1825, besides Latin and Greek, Harvard began teaching modern languages, such as
French and German. Soon it began teaching American history.
As knowledge
increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students
were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them.
Today, there are many
different kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are made up of
smaller schools that deal with(涉及)special fields of learning. There’s so much to learn
that one kind of school can’t offer it all.
63. From the second paragraph, we can see that in the early years,______.
A. those
colleges and universities were the same
B. people, young or old, might study in the colleges
C. students studied only some languages and science
D. when the students finished their school, they became lawyers or
teachers
64. Modern languages the Harvard taught in 1825 were ________.
A. Latin and Greek
B. Latin, Green, French and German
C. American history and German
D. French and German
65. As knowledge increased, colleges began to teach_______.
A. everything that was known
B. law and something about medicine
C. many new subjects
D. the subjects that interested students
66.On the whole, the passage is about___________.
A. how to start a university
B. the world-famous colleges in America
C. how colleges have changed
D. what kind of lesson each college teaches
E
It is difficult for doctors to help a person with a damaged brain.
Without enough blood, the
brain lives for only three to five minutes. More often the doctors can' t fix
the damage. Sometimes they are afraid to try something to help because it is
dangerous to work on the brain. The doctors might make the person worse if he
operates on the brain.
Dr. Robert White, a
famous professor and doctor, thinks he knows a way to help. He thinks doctors
should make the
brain very cold. If it is very cold, the brain can live without blood for 30
minutes. This gives the doctor a longer time to do something for the brain.
Dr. White tried his idea
on 13 monkeys. First he taught them
to do different jobs, then he operated on them. He made the monkeys' blood go
through a machine. The machine cooled the blood. Then the machine sent the
blood back to the monkeys' brains. When the brain's temperature was
67. The
biggest difficulty in operating on the damaged brain is that _______.
A. the time is too short for doctors

D. the blood-cooling machine might break down
68. The
brain operation was made possible mainly by _______.
A. taking the
blood out of the brain
B. trying the
operation on monkeys first
C. having the
blood go through a machine
D. lowering the
brain' s temperature
69. With Dr. White' s new idea, the
operation on the damaged brain _______.
A. can last as long as 30 minutes
B. can keep the
brain' s blood warm
C. can keep the
patient' s brain healthy
D. can help monkeys do different jobs
70. What is the
right order of the steps in the operation?
a. send the
cooled blood back to the brain
b. stop the
blood to the brain
c. have the
blood cooled down

brain
A. a,b,c,d B. c,a,b,d C. c, b, d, a D. b, c, d, a

Dear peter,
Thank you for writing to me. In your letter you asked me to give you some advice on how to learn English well. Now, I’d like to say something about it for your reference.
First, it is necessary for you to memorize as many basic new words as you can. Some need learning by heart, you can do that successfully by reading or writing them many, many times. At the same time you have to do a lot of reading on different subjects to increase your language sense. A lot of practice is necessary too. Try to understand basic grammar rules. Especially pay more attention to the training of abilities of communication in English. Such are what I want to say about learning English well. That’s all.
I hope you make great progress.
Yours ever,
XuMing
