（每空？ 分，共？ 分）

5、I was dirty smelly hungry and some somewhere beneath all that, suntanned(皮肤晒黑).It was the end of an Inter-Rail holiday．My body couldn’t take any more punishment. My mind couldn't deal with any more foreign timetables, currencies or languages．

"Never again，" I said, as I stepped onto home ground．I said exactly the same thing the following year．And the next, all I had to do was buy one train ticket and, because I was under twenty―five years old，I could spend a whole month going anywhere I wanted in Europe. Ordinary beds are never the same once you've learnt to sleep, in the passage of a train, the rhythm rocking you into a deep sleep.

Carrying all your possessions on your back  in a tucksack(背包) makes you have a vefy basic approach to travel，and encourages incredible wastefulness that can lead  to burning socks that have become too anti-social(不合群的)，and getting rid of books when finished．On the other hand,this way of looking at life is entirely in the spirit of Inter―Rail,for common sense and reasoning can be thrown out of the window along with the paperback book and the socks．All it takes to achieve this carefree attitude is one of those tickets in your hand．

Any system that enables young people to travef through countries at a rate of more than one a day must be pretty social on that first trip,my friehds mad I were at first unaware of the possibilities of this type of train ticket，thinking it was just an inexpensive way of getting to and from our chosen camp-site in southern France．But the idea of non-stop travel proved too attractive，for there was always just one more country over the border，always that little bit further to go．And what did the extra miles cost us? Nothing.

We were not completely uninterested in culture．But this was a first holiday without parents，as it was for most other Inter-Railers,and in organizing our own timetable  we left out everything except the most available sights．This was the chance to escape the guided tour，an opportunity to do something different．I took great pride in the fact that．in many places，all I could be bothered to see was the view from the station．We were just there to get by，and to have good time doing so．In this we were not different from most of the other Inter-Raiders with whom we shared passage  floors，food and water，money and music．

The excitement of travel comes from the sudden reality of somewhere that was previously just a name．It is as if the city in which you arrive never actually existed until the train pulls in at the station and you are able to see it with your own tired eyes for the first time.

A．He fell ill

72．What does the writer mean by“this way of looking at life’’in Paragraph 37

A．Worrying about your clothes

B.Throwing unwanted things away

C．Behaving in an anti-social way

D.Looking after your possessions

73．Why did the writer originally buy an Inter―Rail ticket?

A．To get to one place cheaply．

B．To meet other young people．

C．To see a lot of famous places

D．To go on a tour of  Europe．

74．What the writer liked about traveling without his parents was that

A．he could see more interesting places

B．he could spend more time sightseeing

C．he could stay away from home longer

D．he could make his own decisions

75．What does the underlined word“it”in the last sentence of  Paragraph 6 refer to?

C．The train．

B．The city．

4、

Night after night，she came to tuck me in，even long after my childhood years．Following her longstanding custom，she'd lean down and push my long．hair out of the way，then kiss my．fore―head．

I don't remember when it first started annoying me―her hands pushing my hair that way． But it did annoy me，for they felt work―worn and mush against my young skin．Finally，one night，I shouted out at her，"Don't do that anymore--your hands．are too rough!" She didn't say anything in reply．But never again did my mother close out my day with that familiar expression of her love．

Time after time，with the passing years，my thoughts returned to that night．By then I missed my mother's hands．missed her goodnight kiss on my forehead．Sometimes the incident seemed very close，sometimes far away．But always it lurked(潜藏)，in the back of my mind．

Well，the years have passed，and I'm not a little girl anymore．Mom is in her mid―seven―ties．and those hands I once thought to be so rough are still doing things for me and my family．She's been our door，reaching into a medicine cabinet(医药箱)for the remedy(药物)to calm a young girl's stomach or soothe(安慰)the boy's scraped(擦伤的)knee．She cooks the best fried chicken in the world…gets stains out of blue jcans,like I never could…

Now, my own children are grown and gone．Mom no longer has Dad，and on special occasions．I find myself drawn next door to spend the night with her．So it was late on Thanksgiving Eve, as I slept in the bedroom of my youth, a familiar hand hesitantly run across, my face to brush the hair from my forehead．Then a kiss，ever so gently，touched my brow(额头)．

In my memory，for the thousandth，time，I recalled the night my young voice complained，"Don't do that anymore--your hands are too rough!" Catching Mom's hand in hand，I blurted (冲口说出)out how sorry I was for that night．I thought she'd remember ，as I did．But Mom didn't know what I Was talking about．She had forgotten--and forgiven―long ago．

That night, I fell asleep with a new appreciation for my gentle mother and her caring hands. And the guilt that I had carried around for so long was nowhere to be found．

3、No more batteries，no more chargers and no more wires．This is the future promised by  "wireless power"．a means of broadcasting electricity through the air to laptops，iPods and other gadgets(小器具)without the need for cables and sockets(插座)．

Wireless lighting，audio speakers and digital picture frames are expected to be among the first commercial products exhibited in Las Vegas this week at the International Consumer Electronics Show，the world's biggest gadgets tradeshow．

Experts believe this is just the beginning and that eventually wireless electricity could do for battery life what WiFi(局域网)did for，the Internet．In a world without wires，laptop users in cafes and airport terminals(终点站)would be inside an "electricity hotspot" and no longer have to delve an awkwardly located socket．

"You'd be able to buy．a desk that charged any gadget placed on it, or power any PC you put on top，" said James Holland，editor of gadgets website Eleetricpig．co．uk．"If each room had wireless power，you'd know that once you walked through the front door your nmbile would start charging up―even while still in your bag or pocket．You'd never need to hunt for the right charger again．"

Among the companies showcasing the ambitions technology at CES is Power Beam．Its system turns electricity into an invisible laser, then beams(传播) it as heat，across the room to a solar cell that conveys it back into dectricity．

David Graham，the co-founder of Power Beam，said："We're going to delete the word  'recharge' from the English dictionary．If your，cell phone is recharging on your desk．all day，you won't be thinking about．it．" The Silicon Valley company can currently use a laser to generate about 1．5 watts of power to_ a solar．cell 10 meters away．This, sould be enough to power an electronic speaker or small LED(二极管) lights，but not enough to operate a laptop，which requires about 30 to 50 watts．However，Graham said that the technology could comfortably be scaled up(提高)．

Power Beam insists its laser does not lead to a risk to users' health because it is simply moving heat from one place to another．Graham said that，if someone walked through the beam，it would shut down within a thousandth of a second，then restart once the path is clear．The technology also promises because it would only power products when needed．

61．What does the writer want to tell us in the passage?

A．A wireless instrument used for charging．

B．The only company to show the ambitious technology．

C．A means of broadcasting electricity to gadgets．

D．A new efficient energy．

2、In the U．S．，the public has tended to believe that all motorcycles are ridden by wild，irresponsible lawless young men．

There are several things about motorcycling that the average citizen dislikes．A cyclist's appearance has something to do with this dislike．Motorcyclists frequency look dirty；in fact，they are dirty．0n the road there is little to protect them from mud，crushed insects and bird droppings．For practical reasons they are often dressed in old clothing which looks much less respectable than the clothing of people who  ride in cars．For the same reason motorcyclists usually wear dark colors．Perhaps this helps to explain why they are sometimes suspected of having evil natures. In old plays of long ago，evil characters usually wore black. In cowboy movies the“bad guys”usually wear black hats while the“good guys”wear lighter colors．Something else about their appearance makes an unfavorable impression．  In their practical，protective clothing they look very much like the men on military motorcycles in the movies of World War II―cruel enemies who roared into peaceful villages filling people's hearts with fear．

Probably the machine itself also produces anger and fear． Motorcycles are noisy，though some big trucks are even noisier．But trucks are big and carry heavy loads；they are accepted(if not really welcomed)because they perform a needed service，making America move．Motorcycles，on the other hand，make all unpleasant noise just to give their riders pleasure．That is what is commonly thought．In the woods motorcycles，frighten animals．Roaring along quiet streets, they wake sleeping families and make babies cry．

Of course the danger of motorcycling，also helps account for many people's low opinion of the sport．Its defenders, however，claim that careful cyclists are in less danger than commonly behaved．

A cyclist must drive as if everybody around him wanted to kill him．He must pay careful attention to his driving．From that point of view，a man on a motorcycle is safer than，a man in a car.

1、When I met Mr.．Jim Lemon I was a seventeen―year―old freshman at Houston's Jackson Junior High．The chances of my finishing high school were   36   ．I was a troubled teenager.

Mr.．Lemon taught American history and was quite  37  from the other teachers I had known．  Not only was he    38    ，but also he Was a great teacher．He pushed and, never tolerated the mediocrity(平庸)that had become my standard．

On the occasion of our first semester report cards．Mr. Lemon    39    me aside and asked how it was possible that I was a B student in his class and a D and F student in the   40  of my classes．I passionately told him about my    4l    parents．the local gangs，the drugs，the fights，the police―all of the evils I had been   42   to．  It was then that Mr.．Lemon  43  explained that the only person  44   for my situation was me．And the only person with the  45  to change my situation was me．He   46   me that I was failing not because I was a failure. He inspired me to become a better student and he   47   my life．

Ten years hater I was preparing to graduate from a university when I spoke to him again.  48 I did get him on the telephone．I told him that I had been saving money that I could invite him to come to Hawaii at my   49   to be a part of my graduation．

I'll never forget his  50  He said．"Who is this again?" I was just one of hundreds of the students whose life he changed   51   he had no idea of his influence．

Mr.．Lemon never came to my graduation，but his   52   taught me another valuable lesson. His final lesson for me was that we will never know or understand the    53    we have on other people's lives. He taught me that we all have the   54   to effect people's lives for the   55  …or for the worse．
