Almost everyone likes dogs because they try hard to please their owners. One of my favorite stories is about a dog who wanted his owner to please him. One of my friends has a large German shepherd ( 牧羊狗) named Jack. Every Sunday afternoon, my friend takes Jack for a walk in the park. Jack likes these long walks very much. One Sunday afternoon, a young man came to visit my friend. He stayed a long time, and he talked and talked. Soon it was time for my friend to take Jack for his walk, but the visitor didn’t leave. Jack became very worried about his walk in the park. He walked around the room several times and then sat down directly in front of the visitor and looked at him. But the visitor paid no attention. He continued talking. Finally, Jack couldn’t stand it any longer. He went out of the room and came back a few minutes later. He sat down again in front of the visitor, but this time he held the man’s hat in his mouth. German shepherds aren’t the only intelligent dogs. Another intelligent dog is a Seeing Eye dog. This is a special dog which helps blind people walk along the streets and do many other things. We call these dogs Seeing Eye dogs because they are the “eye” of the blind people and they help them to “see”. Seeing Eye dogs generally go to special schools for several years to learn to help blind people. 51. The writer tells the story about the dog Jack to show that____. A. it, like many other dogs, always tried to please its owner master B. it, unlike many other dogs, always wanted its master to please it C. it was more intelligent than many other dogs D. it was the most faithful dog of his friend’s 52. Jack came to sit in front of the visitor in order to____. A. please him B. be pleased C. ask him to leave immediately D. invite him for a walk 53.

Jack was very tired and wanted a rest D. Jack was very angry with the visitor 54. What is the best title for this passage? A. Dogs?A Great Help to People B. Dogs ? Our Faithful Companions C. An Introduction to Dogs D. Famous Dogs in Germany B No one wants to look stupid or do the wrong thing at a new job. It is important to make the right impression from the very first day. You will face new people. You will be in a new place. It may be difficult to know what to do. Here are five tips to help you make it through the first days at a new job: 1. First impressions can last forever. Make sure you make a good one. Before your first day, find out if your new job has a dress code (rules about what you can wear to work). If so, be sure to follow it. No matter what, always be neat and clean. 2. Get to work on time. Give yourself an extra15 minutes to make sure you arrive on time. 3. Pay attention to introductions.

These co-workers will be important to you. They are the ones who will answer your questions when the boss is not around. 4. Ask plenty of questions. Make sure that your supervisor has told you what is expected of you. If he or she has not told you your duties, ask for a list. Set daily and weekly goals for yourself. 5.

C In the United States many have been told that anyone can become rich and successful if he works hard and has some good luck. Yes, when one becomes rich he wants people to know it. And even though he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That’s what “Keeping up with the Joneses” is about. The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American named Arthur Momand. Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things to keep up with their neighbors: they tried to look as rich and successful as their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “keeping up with Joneses”, because Jones is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years. People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. That’s one reason why they read “right” books, go to the “right” universities, and eat in “right” restaurants. Every city has an area where people want to live because others will think better of them if they do. And there are Joneses in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses, because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead. 59. According to the passage, many people try to keep up with the Joneses because _______. A. they feel proud to be like the Joneses B. they want others to know or think they are rich C. they are afraid that others will know they are rich D. they want to be as rich as their neighbors 60. What does the author mean when he says “right” books? A. Books that teach people how get rich and successful B. Books by famous and successful writers C. Very expensive book D. Books that other people around are reading 61. The passage mainly wants to tell us __________.

Americans’ thought of being well-known for richness B. the relationship(关系) among American people C. Americans competing(竞争) with each other D. more chances of becoming rich in the US D People who like travelling have their reasons. They believe that travelling can help them expand their field of view, especially in the geographical and historical sense. They also think that touring will give them more chances to enjoy different kinds of food and experience new things that would never be brought by other activities. But those who dislike travelling also have some reasons. Travelling, in my opinion, does more good than harm. Most importantly, it broadens our mind. We can get in touch with other civilizations, cultures, customs and ideas. Through history, most people travelled because of necessity --- not for pleasure. People travelled just in order to remain alive. They searched for food to eat or places to live in. They sometimes ran away from enemies. This is not to say that no one ever travelled just for the fun of it. In ancient times, for example, rich Romans travelled all the way to Greece to take part in the Olympic Games, and festivals. Of course, some people decided to travel just out of curiosity(好奇心). They wanted to find out what it looked like beyond the horizon (地平线). Also business travel has been going on for centuries. Traders could not only make money but also learn to speak several languages and be introduced to different cultures. So, travelling does enrich our mind and draw new ideas to us. There is no doubt that we can get much from it. 62. What does the underlined word “expand” in Paragraph One probably mean? A. Make something wider B. Make something clearer C. Make something more beautiful D. Make something smaller 63. According to the passage, in the past, most people travelled ___________. A. for fun B. for knowledge C. to get experience D. to make a living 64. How many different kinds of reasons for travelling are mentioned in Paragraph3? A. Three B. Four C. Five D. Six 65. In the author’s opinion, travelling can be _________. A. expensive B. funny C. helpful D. tiring 66. What’s the main point of this passage? A. People have different reasons for travelling. B. Travelling enriches our mind. C. There are a number of ways to enjoy ourselves while travelling. D. People have different opinions about travelling. E After the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had good news to report: The damage and death toll (死亡人数)could have been much worse. More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, as earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 deaths. Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes(规章) in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city’s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes. Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints (蓝图)for improved quake- resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place. In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood that bend without breaking, to ()学习网是一家免费为中高考、七八九年级提供教学资源服务的网站，网站拥有试题、 试卷、课件、教案、论文、视频等教学资源数百万封，为广大的教师学生提供丰富免费的教学资源是本站 的办站的宗旨～ ()学习网是一家免费为中高考、七八九年级提供教学资源服务的网站，网站拥有试题、 试卷、课件、教案、论文、视频等教学资源数百万封，为广大的教师学生提供丰富免费的教学资源是本站 的办站的宗旨～ make buildings more resistant to earthquakes. The new design, however, would install computers in the buildings and the computers would help the building adjust(调节) itself during the earthquake. Such buildings would be called smart buildings and could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during an earthquake. 67. About __________ less people lost their lives in the earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994 than in the earthquake that occurred in America in 1988. A. 2,440 B. 25,000 C. 24,940 D. 60 68.
