At the time, I would go out in the evening with my parents. But this time I had borrowed a bicycle from a friend of mine. I didn’t know why, but once I was on my own bicycle, a kind of free feeling flooded through me. The faster I rode, the faster I wanted to go! Far ahead, I rode as if my life depended on it, head down, hands grasping the handbars. I meant to get to Jinghai Bar as fast as I could...

Oh! My hands! Don’t come any closer... Don’t touch me! That poor doctor just couldn’t get my gloves off. Each time he took a step towards me, I broke into painful shouting. Much later, I　discovered that I had crashed(碰撞) heavily with another bicycle, and I hadn’t spoken one word of sense for at least three hours! After some time, my mother arrived at the hospital, her face as white as a sheet, and gave me a hug(拥抱), only then did the doctor begin to stitch(缝合) my head wound, not only did he merrily cut off a long lock of my hair, but used no anaesthetic(麻药) either! Later. I seemed to hear faraway voices saying that my right hand was broken. I almost burst into tears. How would I ever play the piano again?

On her way to Jinghai, the writer felt _______.

A. nervous             B. comfortable              C. light-hearted             D. upset

Why did the writer ride a bicycle to Jinghai Bar that evening?

A. Because she wanted to attend a party on time.

B. Because she wanted to meet her friend who was waiting for her there.

C. Because she just wanted, to join some of her friends and drink some wine.

D. We are not quite sure about what she was really going there for.

What did the writer think of the doctor?

A. Friendly.           B. Cruel.               C. Hardworking.           D. Kind.

One thing is sure, that is, before she was wounded she _______.

A. often went to Jinghai Bar with her friends

B. liked playing the piano

C. didn’t like any doctors at all

D. would burst into tears when she was in trouble

    In June, 2007, a group of students from eight high schools in Winnipeg, the capital of Canada’s Manitoba province, will begin test-launching (试发射) a satellite the size of a Rubik’s cube.

    The one-kilogram Win-Cub satellite, named for its home city and its shape, will be put into low orbit. Once in space, it can perform for a few months or up to several years, communicating information that could help find the signs of earthquakes.

    There are 80 similar satellite projects worldwide, but this is the first high-school based program of its kind in Canada. 30 Manitoba high school students are having a hand in designing and building the satellite, in cooperation with aerospace (航空航天的) experts and 10 students from the University of Manitoba, and with support from two other organizations.

    The Win-Cube project is not something that goes on a piece of paper; it is real-world engineering, allowing high school students to have an opportunity to learn more about the exciting world of engineering through their participation in this challenging program. It is also taken as a wonderful example of the unique partnerships within Manitoba. Designing, building and launching a satellite with high-school participation will bring this world-class educational project into reality and Manitoba closer to space.

    “These Manitoba high school students deserve congratulations for their enthusiasm, innovation (创新), and a strong love for discovery,” said Education, Citizenship and Youth Minister Peter Bjomson. “We want to make science more relevant (相关的), interesting and attractive to high school students by showing them how classroom studies can relate to practical experience in the workplace or, in this case, in space,” Bjomson added.

    The Win-Cube program is mainly named at inspiring a strong desire for discovery on the part of the students. It also shows Manitoba’s devotion to research and innovation and the development of a skilled workforce—all important drivers of knowledge-based economic growth.

56. According to the passage, the Win-Cube satellite is _________.

   A. named after Manitoba and its shape               

  B. intended for international communication

   C. designed like a Rubik’s cube both in shape and size

   D. challenged by university students around the world

57. According to Mr. Bjomson, ___________.

   A. those Manitoba high school students are worth praising

   B. the study of space can be practically made in classrooms

   C. Manitoba high schools are famous for the study of space

   D. scientific research is too far away from high school students

58. The primary purpose of the project is to _________.

   A. find the early signs of earthquakes             B. relate studies to practical

   C. help high school students study real-world engineering

   D. inspire a strong desire for discovery among the students

59. The best title for this passage may be ________.

   A. Manitoba School        B. Win-Cube Program         C. Space Co-operation

   D. Satellite Launching

Once Wilhelm K. Roentgen and several other scientists were experimenting with passing electric currents through certain gases in a special glass tube from which the air had been taken away. Then one day Roentgen noticed that when the tube was covered with black paper, some strange kind of radiation was coming through and making a screen nearby glow(发光). Roentgen could see anything out of the tube, but then he discovered that if he put the screen at the next room on the other side of a closed door, the rays still seemed to affect it. The glowing screen showed that the rays could pass not only through the black paper but also through wood.

The next thing he found out was that if he put his hand between the rays and a photographic

plate, the rays would print a shadow of the bony(骨头的) framework of his hand on the plate. In fact, the rays could pass as easily through the fleshy part of his hand as through the black paper. But hardly at all through the bone. So Roentgen made the first X-ray picture of a hand showing just how the bones in the hand fitted together.

Roentgen called the unknown rays X-rays, but other scientists called them Roentgen rays in

Roentgen discovered X-rays ___________.

       A．by working hard             B．by chance

       C．by doing experiment after experiment    D．with the help of several other scientists

What was in the special glass tube?

       A．Air   B．Nothing    C．Nothing but gases    D．None of the above

We may conclude that the rays Roentgen found were __________.

       A．dangerous B．invisible   C．colorful    D．poisonous

What could X-rays hardly pass through?

       A．Wood       B．Glass C．Bones       D．Black paper

Which title best gives the main idea of the passage?

       A．the Discovery of Roentgen Rays.    B．The Discovery of Electric Currents.

       C．The First X-ray Picture of a Hand. D．The Use of the Photographic Plate.
