All these situations make me 41 the purpose of traffic lights.42 , it’s even more frightening to imagine letting people make their own decisions at 43 crossroads. Do the biggest cars get to go first?

His childhood lacked the harmony(和睦) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. In fact, he inherited(继承) excellent taste in art from his family-----both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama(戏剧) and poetry.Yeats had strong faith in the coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didn’t lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats’ poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.He had not enjoyed a major public lift since winning the Nobel Prize in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75. After Yeats’ death in 1939, W.H. Auden wrote, among others, the following lines:Earth, receive an honored guest:William Yeats is laid to rest.Let the Irish vessel(船) lie.Emptied of his poetry.56. Which of the following can describe Yeats’ family?A. It filled Yeats’ childhood with laughter.B. It was shocked by Yeats’ choice.C. It was a typically wealthy family.D. It had an artistic atmosphere.57. According to the passage, what do we know about Yeats’ life?A. Yeats founded the first Irish theatre.B. Yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetry.C. Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s.D. Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Nobel Prize.58. What kind of feeling is expressed in W. H. Auden’s lines?A. Envy.B. Sympathy.C. Emptiness.D. Admiration.59. What is the passage mainly about?A. Yeats’ literary achievements.B. Yeats’ historical influence.C. Yeats’ artistic ambition(雄心).D. Yeats’ national honor.BIn Indonesian 2-year-old boy who hit the headlines last month due to a 40-a-day cigarette addiction has reportedly cut down to 15-a-day from 40, after the child received treatment.Images of a two-year-old boy smoking cigarettes have shocked people in Indonesia. The little boy, Ardi Rizal from Sumatra, is addicted to nicotine and smokes 40 cigarettes a day. His father, Mohammed Rizal, thinks there’s no problem with his son’s bad habit. He told reporters that his child looked healthy and that it was the only thing that was important. He went on to explain how Ardi took up smoking when he was 18 months old. That was when he gave his son his first cigarette. Now he’s totally hooked; he screams if his father doesn’t let him smoke.Ardi’s story is part of a worrying trend in Indonesia. It has one of the worst smoking records in the world, with a population of 250 million people. Government statistics show 25 percent of Indonesia teenagers have smoked and that about 3 percent are regular smokers.Indonesia is the world’s third largest smoking nation. It is reported that over a third of the country smokes, and 90% of the countr y’s smokers smoke a native cigarette which has twice thelevels of tat and nicotine in an average cigarette used around the world. Cigarettes are everywhere and smoking is still seen as a socially acceptable practice. Many people in the country do not know the health risks connected with smoking.Health Minister Endang Sedyaningsih said preventing youngsters from smoking would be very difficult because people believe smoking is a good thing. She said tobacco companies are well like because they sponsor many things from education to sporting and public events. She added, “ This is the challenge we face in protecting youth from the danger of smoking”.60. Why did the Indonesian boy hit the headlines?A. Because he smoked too much for his age.B. Because his parents were both heavy smokers.C. He fought against smoking.D. Because his parents forbid him to smoke.61. What does the underlined word “hooked” mean in the second paragraph?A. Curious5B. Tired5C. Addicted5D. Eager562.

It’s not easy to forbid the youth to smoke because___________.A. the government is in favor of smokingB. smoking is not considered a bad thing.C. tobacco companies encourage people to smoke.D. the youth have formed the habit of smoking.CGeorge Prochnik would like the world to put a sock in it. He makes his case in a new book, listening for Meaning in a World of Noise. Here he explains himself(using his indoor voice):“We’ve become so accustomed to noise, there’s almost a deep prejudice against the idea that silence might be beneficial. If you tell someone to be quiet, you should like an old man. But it’s never been more important to find continuing quiet. Silence focuses us, improves our health, and is a key to lasting peace and satisfaction.“We need to excite people about the sounds you start to hear if you merely quiet things down a little. During a Japanese tea ceremony, the smallest sounds become a kind of art-----the spoons making a light ringing sound on a bowl, the edges of a kimono(和服) brushing against the floor.“Deaf people are very attentive(专注的) in almost every aspect of life. If two deaf people are walking together, using sign language, they constantly watch out for each other and protect each other by paying steady attention to the other. They are concerned yet also fully aware of their surroundings. Even deaf teenagers! We in the heating world can learn from them. If we remove the powerful blasts(一阵阵) of noise, we become aware of an extraordinarily rich world around us—of little soft sounds and the sound of footsteps, of bird songs and ice cracking(开裂声). It’s astonishing how beautiful things sound when you really listen.”64. What does the phrase “to put a sock in it” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. to be quiet.B. to be colorful.C. to be full of love.D. to be attentive to someone.65. What does Prochnik say about us?A. We are used to quietness.B. We have to put up with noise.C. We do not think silence to be beneficial.D. We do not believe lasting peace to be available.66. Which of the following is true according to Prochnik?A. We need more sounds in our lives.B. There is nothing to be learned from the deaf.C. We are not aware how rich the world around us is.D. There is too much noise at a Japanese tea ceremony.67. It can be inferred from the text that ________.A. we can benefit a lot from old people.B. it is a good idea to use sign language.C. there is no escape from the world of sound.D. it is possible to find how beautiful things sound.DEarthquakes strike suddenly at any time of the day or night, but there’s no way to tell them. If an earthquake happens, it may cause many deaths and injuries and great damage. Decide how and where your family will get together if separated. Choose an out-of-state friend or relative that the family members can call after the quake to report where they are and how they are. Know the safe place in each room: under the strong tables, desks, or against inside walls. Keep enough food, water and other things, including a flashlight, a radio, medicines and clothing.During the earthquake, you should keep a clear head and never be too nervous to know what to do. Protect your head and neck with your arms. If possible, take a book, a pillow or any other things to protect yourself from falling glass and ruins. If you are indoors, you must immediately lie under any strong furniture. If outdoors, move to an open area away from trees, buildings, walls and power poles. If you are in a narrow valley, move to the centre of it and look out for falling stones. If you are in a car, move to the side of the road and stop the car. Do not stop near buildings, power lines or under bridges. Stay in your car until the shaking stops.Do not move a badly injured person unless he is in great danger after the earthquake. Do not use the telephone immediately unless there is a serious injury or fire. Turn on your radio for instructions and news report. Be prepared for aftershocks.
