If you have the time,Iknow the place. I am talking about the best stretches of white sand beaches in the whole of Southeast Asia. I know you have experienced beaches in the U.S.,but the beaches near my home are more awesome than Fort Lauderdale and Malibu combined.Just picture this:white hot sand,so white that you need to wear sunglasses to guard against the glare, and so hot that your bare feet will jump. The temperature is always in the nineties,but the cool gentle wind from the sea will keep you hate crowded beaches. I know you love to surf(冲浪运动),and that you hate crowded beaches.This beach gets the best waves in the world for surfing; you will be amazed at how tall the waves get. Best of all, you will be the only person surfing because the Vietnamese don’t surf. Of course, there will be just a few beartiful girls to watch you, and they will be excited with your skills.One last thing:it is cheap to come t o my country, and while you are here,you will stay with my family and it’s free.Just imagine yuourself,surfing along the endless beach under the hot sun. Come to Vietnam! 56. This text is probably written for those__________.

B Accidents are caused,they don’t just happen. The reason may be easy to see:an overloaded tray, a shelf out of reach,some ice on the road.But more often than not there is a chain of events leading up to the disaster—feelings of bitter disappointment, tiredness or just bad temper—that show what the accident really is ,a sort of attack on oneself. Road accidents,for example,happen frequently after a family quarrel,and we all know people who are likely to have accidents, so often at odds with themselves and the world that they seem to cause accidents for themselves and others. Yet this should not make us think that accidents happen to other people. By definition,an accident is something you cannot see in advance or avoid, and the idea which used to be generally accepted, that the majority of road accidents are caused by a small number of careless drivers, is not supported by insurance statistics(保险公司 提供的数据).These show that most accidents are carsed by ordinary drivers in a moment of carelessness or thoughtlessness. It is not always clear,either,what sort of conditions make people more likely to have an accident.For instance,the law requires all gactories to take safety precautions(预防措施)and most companies have sagety committees to make sur the law is observed, but still,every day in Britain ,some fifty thousand men and women are absent from work due to an accident. Thes accidents are largely the result of human error or misjudgment—noise and tiredness, boredom or worry are possible factors(因 素).Doctors who work in factories gave found that those who drink too much, usually people who have a high anxiety level,three times the normal risk of accidents at work. 59. What would be best title for the text? A. Accidents and Anxiety B. How Accidents Are Caused C. Accidents on the Roads and in Factories D. How Accidents Can Be Avoided 60. According to the writer, some people have frequent accidents because___________. A. they are always careless about what they do B. they are not satisfied with themselves and the world C. they are not well prepared for life’s difficulties D. they ofter drink both at home and at work 61. The underlined word “this” (para graph3) refers to _________. A. a family quarrel B. a road accident C. what is talked about in paragraph2 D. the idea that accidents happen by chance 62. Which of the following statements best sums up the last paragraph? A. It is important forfactories to take safety precautions. B. It is clear that accidents are common in Britain. C. Accidents in factories can never be avoided. D. Human factors are the main cause of accidents. C British Museum Opening hours Monday to Saturday 10am—5pm,Sunday 2.30pm—6pm.

The text is probably taken from _________. A. a news magazine B. a language dictionary C. an information leaflet D. a textbook about tourism D As thousands of overseas students do battle with the English language in schools across the UK,many face a struggle with a culture for which they are totally unprepared.Misunderstand ings can occur, which ,if not sorted out ,can ruin a student’s trip. Much of this is a result of false thinking and expectations of British families and the way they live. Last summer in a college in Kent,Ali,a Middle East student in his forties wrote bef ore his arrival to request a family willing to discuss the day’s news,no meat in his food and no alcohol. Then ,after his second day in England,his host rang the college to say he wouldn’t eat the food she’d cooked for him.In fact he had bought some food and asked her to cook it for him. The college solved the problem by Ali taking lunch and evening meals at the college,where he cluld try out the food by eating a little at a time,and only take breakfast with his host. And it worked! “They later got on like a house on fire.” Said Tony, one of his British classmates. “He had just not got on with the food.” EFL(English as a Foreign language) communities can be close-knit—when a Japanese student was shot dead in the United States some years ago agter mistakenly entering the wrong house in fancy dress on the way to a Halloween party, and did not understand the word “freeze!”,the US became a no-go area. After the event, the Japanese stopped all their courses and the US was declared “unsafe”. So concerned(关心)has t he UK EFL industry become to improve students’ understandings about the British culture that the British Counil carried out research among foreign students to determine what they felt were the most important factors in their stay.They found that ,altough EFL courses were heavily praised, what concerned students was the quality of host families and welfare during their stay. The result of their study helped a Homesa Code of Practice. Since its launch(推出) earlier this year, some 20,000 certificates have been sent out to hostfamilies who have signed the Code.It has also been sent to 1,000 overseas travel agents.The aim is to make it serve as an international quality assurance scheme(质量保证体系). 66. We learn from the text that the problems foreign students have during their stay in England are mostly caused by________. A. their poor English level B. the British way of cooking C. their unfamiliarity with the British culture D. their misunderstanding of Br itish families’ attitudes towards them. 67. Ali didn’t eat the food in the host family because _________. A. he didn’t get on well with his host B. he couldn’t eat the meat served C. he didn’t like the way it was cooked D. he couldn’t come back from s chool on time 68. When Tony said that “they later got on like a house on fire” (paragraph 3),most probably he meant_________. A. Ali never touched the food his host cooked B. Ali and his host later became close friends C. Ali ofter quarreled with his host family D. Ali left host family and moved to live elsewhere 69. The underlined word “it”(paragraph 5)refers to ________. A. the certificate B. the EFL course C. the Homestay Code of Practice D. the result of the British Council’s study 70. The example of a Japanese student is given in the text to show that__________. A. America is a dangerous B. Americans are unfriendly to foreign students C. Japanese students are inadequate in their English D. missunderstandings can occur between foreign students and native speakers E The folm The Tides of Kirawira,which won two prizes at a recent televisio festival, was made by Mark Deeble and Victoria Stone.The couple are in England to visit friends and family before heading back to Tanzania for their next film. Their work takes them to some of the world’s least-knownareas but they still find themselves drawn back to England,particularly to Cornwall,where their work and personal relationship developed. “We met in London when Mark was studying biology and I was at the Royal College of Art studying photography.” says Victoria. “We both learned to dive at the same pool in London and went on diving weekends in the country. It was a terrible place, freezing cold,where we dived in wet suits full of holes.But that is where our relationship developed.” After completing their studies they took part in the management of a conservation area(保護區)in the mouth of the River Fal in Cornwall. “We were shocked.Nobody seemed to understand the river’s ecological(生態的)importance. So we thought ,why don’t we make a film to show people what a special place it is? Neither of us had any experience of filming but we took part-time jobs until we had enough cash to buy an underwater camera and xome film.” A television company agreed to provide money for the work and the film they produced about the underwater life of the River Fal was shown on television and won a number of prizes. By then ,they both knew they wanted to work with wildlife in distant places around the world.Alkan Root,a famous East Arfican wildlife film-maker, asked them to work for him. That was seven years ago and the job took them to the Serengeti to film crocodiles(鳄鱼).Their films,Here Be Dragons and Devil Fish,were very successful. “We love Africa but we have to com e back to England every year,” says Victoria. “We need to return to see our friends and family. For us,Africa is temporary and England means permanence.It’s the difference between living in a tent in Tanzania and a house in Cornwall. We are lucky…we have the best of both worlds.” 71. Mark and Victoria have returned to England to__________. A. appear on television B. make a film about Cornwall C. have a break between films D. receive a prize for their new film 72.
