(A) Real policeman hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV---if they ever get home in time. There are similarities, of course, but the crops don’t think much of them. The first difference is that a policeman’s real life revolves round the law. Most of his training is in criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a professional lawyer and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in dark and rain, running down an alley after someone he wants to talk to. Little of his time is spent in chatting to scantily-clad ladies of in dramatic confrontations with desperate criminals. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of san, unimportant people who are guilty-or not-of stupid, petty crimes. Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as he’s arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorists attacks-where failure to produce results reflects on the standing of the police-little is spent on searching. Having made an arrest, a detective really starts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do what he often had to gather a lot of different evidence. So, as well as being overworked, a detective has to be out at all hours of the day and night interviewing his witness and persuading them, usually against their own best interests, to help him. 56. It is essential for a policeman to be trained in criminal law_______. A. so that he can catch criminals in the street. B. so that he can justify his arrest in court. C. because many of the criminals he has to catch are dangerous. D. because he has to know nearly as much as a professional lawyer. 57. When murders and terrorist attacks occur the police________. A. prefer to wait for the criminal to give himself away. B. spend a lot of effort in trying to track down their man. C. try to make a quick arrest in order to keep up tear reputation. D. usually fail to produce results. 58. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. Generally the detective’s work is over once the arrest has been made. B. People are usually willing to give evidence. C. Policemen and detectives spend little time at the type-writer. D. Policemen feel that the image of their live shown on TV is not accurate. 59. Which of the following could be a suitable title for the passage? A. Policemen and Detective. B. The Reality of Being a Detective. C. Detective’s life---Fact and Fantasy. D. Drama and Reality. (B) CAIRO, Egypt (Reuters) April 24, 2006—Three explosions shook the Egyptian Sinai resort of Dahab on Monday, killing 23 people and wounding dozens of others, rescue and security officials said. Witnesses said smoke billowed up from the town’s tourist bazaar, and residents said they saw body parts and debris on the street after an explosion at a restaurant. People in the small beach and diving resort, which is popular with backpackers, described scenes of carnage and chaos. A cafe w0rker who was about 200 meters (yards) from the scene said: “We saw many dead people. People were screaming. People were being taken to hospital. Egyptians went to give blood. There were body parts. There’s police everywhere.” “There are ambulances and cars taking people to hospital,” said another resident, who also did not want to be named. The explosions took place at the Nelson Restaurant, the Aladdin Cafeteria and the Ghazala Supermarket, the Interior Ministry said. The explosions took place in quick succession at about 7.15 p.m. (1715 GMT). “There is smoke coming from the area and there are people running everywhere,” said one witness, who heard the blasts. An official with the local ambulance service said many of the dead appeared to be f0reigners. Israeli divers often stay in the resort but with the Passover holiday over it is unlikely many were there. The Israeli ambassad0r in Cairo and Israeli authorities said they did not know of any Israeli casualties. One visitor said police were stopping cars and buses leaving the resort and had imposed restrictions on movements in and out of backpacker camps in the area. It was the third set of three explosions on the eastern coast of the Sinai Peninsula since October 2004, when a group attacked the Hilton hotel in the border resort of Taba and two other resorts on the northeast coast, killing 34 people. 60. What’s the result of the explosions in Dahab? A. 34 people were killed. B. There were many Israeli casualties. C. 23 people were killed and dozens of others were injured. D. Many houses were burned to the ground. 61. What does the underlined w0rd “resort” mean? A. popular holiday centre B. hotel or guest-house for holidaymakers C. visiting some place D. making use of something for help 62. Which of the following statements is right? A. Many of the dead appeared to be residents. B. The first set of three explosions took place in October 2004. C. Police couldn’t know what to do. D. Israeli divers stayed in the res0rt with the Passover holiday (C) I was only eight years old when the Second World War ended, but I can still remember something about the victory celebrations in the small town where I lived. We had not suffered much from the war there, though like most children of my age, I was used to seeing bombed houses in the streets and the enormous army lorries passing through. But both at home and at school I had become accustomed to the phrases “before the war” and “when the war’s over.” “Before the war,” apparently, things had been better, though I was too young to understand why, except there had been no bombs then, and people had eaten things like ice cream and bananas, which I had only heard of. When the war was over, we would go back to London, but this meant very little to me. I did not remember what London was like. What I remember now about VE Day was the afternoon and the evening. It was a fine May day. I remember coming home about five o’clock. My father and mother came in about an hour later. After dinner I said I wanted to see the bonfire (篝火), so when it got dark my father took me to the end of the street. The bonfire was very high, and some people had collected some old clothes to dress the unmistakable figure with the moustache they had put on top of it. Just as we arrived, they set light to it. The flames rose and soon covered the “guy”. Everyone was cheering and shouting, and an old woman came out of her house with two chairs and threw them on the fire to keep the fire going.I stood beside my father until the fire started to go down, not knowing what to say. He said nothing either. He had fought in the First World War and may have been remembering the end of that. At last he said, “Well, that’s it, son. Let’s hope that this time it really will be the last one.” 63. Where did the narrator live before the Second World War? A. In a small town B. In London C. In Europe D. In the countryside 64. The unmistakable figure with the moustache most probably represents _______. A. someone who died in the war B. someone who had won C. an imaginary figure D. the most hated person in the war---- Hitler 65. The narrator’s father _______. A. had fought in the Second World War B. may have suffered much during the previous war C. helped build a bonfire on VE Day D. added something to the fire to keep it going too 66. By saying “ Let’s hope that this time it really will be the last one,” the father meant that _____. A. he hoped there would be no more wars in the world B. he wished the Second World War had not happened C. he hoped people would not build any more bonfires D. he wished people would learn many lessons from the war (D) Palmistry, or the art of reading the lines on a person’s hand, is thousands of years old. It probably began in ancient India. Most people expect a palmist to tell them about their future. They ask questions like: Shall I be rich and successful? Shall I be famous? Shall I have a long and happy life? They do not ask: Am I a nice person? Am I brave or shy? Am I clever? Am I careful and reliable at work? But this is really what palmistry is about. Of course, there are people who do not believe in palmistry. They call it pseudoscience (a false science). But there are other people who believe that palmistry can tell us a lot about a person’s talents and personality. Using the lines and other marks on the hand, a palmist is often able to foretell something of a person’s future, but only in very general terms. The first thing a professional palmist does is to study the whole hand, its size, shape and texture (Is it smooth or rough?) Next he looks at the fingers, their length and shape and their condition of the fingernails. Finally he will study the lines of the hand. It is these lines that most people want to look at and try to “read”. Clear, strong lines Hand lines which are clear and strong indicate a person who is calm, good-tempered and generally contented with life. This sort of person will not get angry quickly and will be cautious about getting involved in anything out of the ordinary. At work, such a person will be careful and reliable. Small line A lot of small lines on the hand indicate a person who is sensitive and excitable. These people are nervous, get angry quickly and get excited easily. They are often very talented, but sometimes find it difficult to settle in one job. They frequently have a number of different hobbies. The heart line If your heart line is strong, you are a warm and affectionate person. If it is weak, then you are probably rather cool. If you have a lot of small lines coming off the heart line, you will have plenty of romance in your life. The head line If your head line is strong and clear, you are intelligent and imaginative. You will probably get a good job. However, this does not necessarily mean you will be rich and successful, as other factors are involved, for example, the number of small lines and the line of fate. The life line If you have a long life line, you will live a long time. A shorter life line indicates a shorter life. The line of fate Study this carefully. If it is strong and reaches as far as the middle finger, you will be successful. 67. Palmistry is a kind of ________. A. treatment B. fortune-telling C. medical examination D. high technology 68. Those who believe in palmistry think that palmistry can ______. A. make you rich B. tell whether you will have a long or short life C. teach you how to get a high post D. tell you how to avoid accidents 69. According to the passage, _________. A. hand lines which are clear and strong means you are a clever person B. the strong heart line means you are cold-hearted C. a warm person has strong head line D. a reliable person has clear strong hand lines 70. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. A romantic person may have a lot of small lines coming our of heart line. B. Not everyone believes in palmistry. C. Not everyone has the line of fate. D. A successful person may have a long line of fate. 第?卷 ?.Verb Filling:(14%) 1. Why (not ask) your teacher for advice on how to learn mathematics well? 2.
