20．An old woman，having lost the use of her eyes，（61）called（call） in a physician to heal them and made this bargain（62）withhim in the presence of witnesses：that if he should cure her blindness，he should receive from her a sum of money； but（63）ifher infirmity （弱视） remained，she should give him nothing．This agreement being made，the physician，time after time，applied his salve （药膏） to her eyes，and on every visit took something away，stealing all her property little by little．And when he had got（64）all/whatshe had，he healed her and demanded the（65）promised （promise） payment．The old woman，when she recovered her sight and saw none of her goods in her house，would give him nothing．The physician insisted on his claim，and，as she still refused，sent for her before the judge．The old woman，standing up in the court，argued："This man here speaks the truth in what he says； for I did promise（66）to give（give） him a sum of money if I should recover my sight：but if I continued blind，I was to give him nothing．Now he declares that I（67）am healed（heal）．I on（ 68）the contrary am sure that I am still blind； for when I lost the use of my eyes，I saw in my house various （69）valuable（value） goods．But now，though he swears I am cured of my blindness，I am not able to see a single thing in （70）it．"

10．For the rest of March，a disease will sweep across the US．It will keep kids home from school．（36）DEmployees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate．
The disease，known as"March Madness"，refers to the yearly US men's college basketball tournament（锦标赛）．（37）FTeams compete against each other in a singleelimination（单局淘汰） tournament that eventually crowns a national champion．
Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness．The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game．Friends compete against friends．（38）AColleagues against bosses．
Bigname schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament．But each year there are dark horses from little-known universities．
This adds to the madness．Watching a team from a school with 3，000 students beat a team from a school with 30，000，for many Americans，is an exciting experience．Some years ago，the little-known George Mason University was one of the final four teams．（39）GCollege basketball players are not paid，so the game is more about making a name for their uni versity and themselves．（40）CAbout 4billionwillbespentgambling（赌）ontheevent．Accordingto Media Life magazine，theeventwillbringin500 million in advertising income this year，topping the postseason income of every US professional league，including that of the NBA．

17．Form July to October every year，about a quarter of the world's blue whales feed in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California．But the whales now face a major threat in their favorite feeding area．Lots of ships carrying cargo sail in the same area at the same time．All too often，a ship will hit a whale．
According to a new study，this problem has become a serious threat to the whole population of the world's blue whales．Ther e are only about 10，000 of the creatures in the world．
Blue whales are the largest known animals ever to live on Earth．But if hit by a container（集装箱） ship，a blue whale will likely die from its injuries．
In 2007 alone，large ships killed five blue whales in the waters off San Francisco and Los Angeles，California．The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration （NOAA） says that because there are so few whales already，losing three to five from the California whale population every year is a great loss．
"The population of blue whales in this part of the Pacific is about 2，500，"says Sean Hastings，a member of NOAA．"So every whale counts toward this population moving off the endangered-species list．"
Now，one very simple program is already under way in the Santa Barbara Channel，a waterway that separates mainland California from the nearby Channel Islands．The Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary has asked large container ships passing through the area to slow down．Sailing slower will allow the ship's members more time to look at detection（探测） equipment and-more important-to change course before hitting a whale．
Several of the world's largest shipping lines are set to take part in the new program．For every ship that passes through the Santa Barbara Channel at or below the reduced speed of 12 knots（a measure of speed in water），the company that owns the ship will be paid $2，500．
25．The underlined part"this problem"in Paragraph 2 refers to the fact thatA．
A．whales are hit by ships
B．whales lose their way
C．whales travel too far
D．whales can't find enough food
26．What can we learn about blue whales？C

B．They mainly live in the pacific Ocean．
C．They are in danger of disappearing．
D．They were once large in number．
27．The purpose of the simple program mentioned in Paragraph 6 is toD．
A．ship the whales
B．guide the whales
C．look for the whales
D．protect the whales
28．The text is most probablyB．
A．a travel guide
B．a newspaper report
C．an advertisement
D．a research paper．

14．Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live，we must communicate with o ther people．A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech．If we travel in buses，buy things in shops，or eat in restaurants，we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions，receive news or comment，and very likely to have our views challenged by other members of society．
Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society．Two things，above others，have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry．Firstly，inventiveness has led to advanced imprinting，telecommunications photography，radio and television．Secondly，speed has revolutionized the transmission（传输） and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news，which itself is often almost eclipsed（侵蚀） by international news．
No longer is the possession of information confined to（只限于） a privileged minority．In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate，but today there are pub lic libraries．For years ago people used to flock to the cinema，but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channeled into millions of homes．
Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information．The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information，education and entertainment．The printing，broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing，educating and entertaining．
Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is part，the vast modern network of communications is open to abuse（滥用）．However，the mass media are with us for better，for worse，and there is no turning back．
18．In the first paragraph，the writer emphasizes theDof face-to-face contact in social setting．
A．nature B．limitation C．creativity D．usefulness

A．local news used to be the only source of information
B．local news still takes a significant place
C．national news is becoming more popular
D．international news is the fastest transmitted news
20．Which of the following statements is NOT true？B
A．Possessing information used to be a privilege．
B．Public libraries have replaced the private completely．
C．Communication means more than transmission of information．
D．Information influences ways of life and thinking．
21．From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer isD．
A．indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass media
B．happy about the flexible changes in the mass media
C．pessimistic about the future of the mass media
D．concerned about the wrong use of the mass media．

15．What musical instrument does the man play？
