Suddenly, bus companies found they could no longer buy any more of their favorite Routemasters, because the country’s Ministry of Transportation（运输部）decided that it would only give financial（财政的）help to bus companies that bought new buses with doors. In 2005, the old Routemasters were finally __53__ out of normal service.Still, it’s not too late to enjoy traveling on one of these historic buses.

Reading Comprehension (阅读理解)A. Choose the best answer (根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案)Hanukkan(光明节), the annual(每年的) Festival of Lights, is celebrated with zeal(热情) by the Jewish people around the world. They celebrate the holiday with the lighting of the menorah(多连灯烛台), traditional foods, games and gifts. Hanukkan is a Jewish festival. It falls on the 25th day of the Jewish month of Kislev(犹太教历), which is usually sometime in December. The festival celebrates the time, over 2,000 years ago, when the Jewish people fought against an emperor who would not let them follow their own traditions and religion(宗教). When the Jewish people won back their temple in Jerusalem(耶路撒冷), they found there was only enough holy(神圣的) oil to keep the sacred light (神圣之灯)burning for one day. However, to their surprise, this small amount of oil kept the light burning for eight days and nights, until the people had time to make more oil.At the center of the Hanukkah celebrations is a candlestick (called a Menorah) that holds nine candles. On the first night of Hanukkah the first candle is lit, and each day this candle is used to light another candle, until on the eighth day, the last day, all the candles are lit. During Hanukkah, people go to the synagogue (犹太教堂) to pray and to remember the miracle (奇迹) of the holy oil. Hanukkah is a time for family and friends to come together. People exchange gifts and greeting cards, and children go to parties. Parents often give their children money at Hanukkah. Potato cakes, called latkes, are a traditional Hanukkah food. Hanukah is a relatively minor holiday in the Jewish year, however, the Hanukkah story tells of Jewish culture surviving in a non-Jewish world.69. For how many days does Hanukkah last?A．7B．10C．9D．870.

Choose the words or expressions to complete the passage(选择最恰当的单词或词语，完成短文)（12 分）“Have you ever been in a fight?” I have frequently asked many adults this question. Often, I have been given the same answer: “Of course, when I was in school.” This common answer seems to suggest that most boys will fight _____75____ during their school years. But as we leave school, we cease(停止) to use our fits to solve problems.It’s possible that when we are young, we lack the negotiation(协商，谈判) skills to manage a ______76_____ without using violence. On top of that (除此之外), when we enter school we are thrown into an environment where we are constantly competing and trying to ___77____ourselves. We care what other people think about and a young man will often try to show a tough guy image(硬汉形象).Once we leave school, we are supposed to be equipped with all ___78____ problem solving skills. We need to be able to deal with an aggressive(挑衅的) situation without hurting others. If an adult starts a fight, it shows a major lack of education. However, there are times when a man needs to be a man. Raising a fist seems socially acceptable, if it’s done to defend yourself or someone who can’t defend themselves. For example, a school yard bully(校园以强凌弱者) gets no respect from his schoolmates. They may fear him but don’t ever mistake that for respect. The person who gains respect is one who stands ___79_____ the bully to protect the weaker guys or girls.Mr. Smith, a former official from local Education Committee said in a talk that boys should know how to fight when necessary. “Boys who do not fight can ___80____ achieve any success in the future,” he said. I think he may have chosen the wrong words. It’s not about fighting ----its’ about courage to stand up for what you believe in. That will make you a true man.75.

It is believed that the first use of corn was popping. The English settlers w____81_ came to America in the 16th and 17th centuries, learned about popcorn from the Native Americans. Native Americans brought a bag of popped corn to the first Thanksgiving. A common way to eat popcorn at that time was to hold an o_____82_ ear(穗) on a stick over the fire, then chew the popped corn off it. Natives throughout America also made popcorn soup and popcorn beer.Popcorn was very popular in the United States from the late 19th century through the middle of the 20th century. It was a ___83__ in parks, from street vendors(摊贩), and near the theaters. Street sellers used to follow crowds around, pushing steam-powered popcorn machines(蒸汽爆米花机) through parks and expositions(博览会).During the Depression(美国大萧条时期), popcorn 5 to 10 cents a bag was one of the few luxuries poor families could a ____84___. While other businesses failed, the popcorn business became more and more successful. An American banker, who went broke(破产) when his bank failed, bought a popcorn machine and started a business in a small store near a theater. A___85____ a couple of years, his popcorn business made enough money to buy back three of farms he had lost.During World War II, when sugar was rationed(限量供应), Americans changed their snacking habits----- they are three times as much popcorn as they had before. P____86___ the favorite place to eat popcorn was at the movies. When television took off (开始流行) in the 1950s, popcorn sales dropped for a while.Americans today eat about 15 billion kilograms of popcorn each year. But the United States isn’t just a land of popcorn l_____87_____, it’s also the land of popcorn. Most of the world now gets its popcorn from Nebraska(内布拉斯加州) and Indiana.D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)The Panama Canal-----Connecting OceansA short canal saves ships thousand of milesThe Panama Canal( 巴拿马运河) is an artificial 51-mile waterway in Panama that connects the Atlantic Ocean with the Pacific Ocean. The idea for a Panama canal datesback to the discovery of the Isthmus of Panama(巴拿马地峡) by Spanish explorer VascoDe Balboa in 1513. He discovered how narrow it was. Only 80.5 kilometers of landseparated the Atlantic from the Pacific! The Spanish surveyed the area in hopes of building a canal. But the local governor(地方长官) decided it was impossible.Fast-forward to 1869, Ferdinand De Lesseps had completed the 163-km-long Suez Canal(苏伊士运河), a waterway linking Europe and Asia. France asked him to repeat his success at Panama. He agreed to have a try. When digging started in 1881, Ferdinand De Lesseps thought building a canal across Panama would be easy. But he didn’t realize that digging in a jungle(丛林) would be so dangerous. Ferdinand De Lesseps and his team abandoned (放弃) their project after thousands of worker died from diseases caused by mosquitoes(蚊子). American President Theodore Roosevelt quickly took over where the French crew had left off. He bought the canal property(运河的所有权) and sent a team of workers to finish the project. Led by John Stevens, the American team got rid of the mosquitoes. This effort helped the team of nearly 40,000 workers to stay healthy and productive(富有成效的). The team used powerful steam shovels(蒸汽挖土机) to make a path for the canal. But even with the help of such large equipment, the work progressed slowly. Finally, after nearly 10 years of non-stop digging, the canal successfully opened in 1914. The story didn’t make the headlines, though. The public was focused on World War I. Therefore the canal wasn’t dedicated(举行落成典礼) until July 12, 1920. Since the canal first opened, more than 960,000 ships have traveled through it. The Panama Canal has become an important link in global shipping. A journey that used to take moths now take two weeks.88. How wide was the Isthmus of Panama which separated the Atlantic from the Pacific?89. Did the local governor agree to build a canal?90. Who bought the Panama Canal property?91. What did the team use to make a path for the canal?92. How long did it take people to complete the work on Panama Canal?93. Why is the Panama Canal an important link in global shipping?VII.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（14分）“Dinning out”, or “eating out” are phrases people use in Britain when they eat in a restaurant or pub. Eating out is more popular in Britain today than it has ever been. In 2006, for the first time ever, British people spent more eating out in restaurants and pubs than cooking for themselves. It seems that many British people are becoming increasingly interested in how good their food tastes, and also how healthy it is.However, eating out can also be expensive. Restaurants are more expensive than pubs, though many pubs serve very good, simple food. As British people do not dine out every night of the week, eating in a restaurant is often seen as a special occasion（场合）. When going on a first date and wanting to make a good impression him or her, or if celebrating an anniversary or a birthday, then many people like to go to a restaurant to eat. People often eat in a restaurant before going to the cinema or the theater.Naturally, restaurants are greatly different in quality and price. However, almost all British cities have many kinds of food and culinary（烹饪的）styles to choose from including traditional British food, and all from the very cheap to the very expensive---French, Italian, Indian, Chinese, Greek, Thai, Japan and many, many more.

His stories are among the most read material in the world, behind only the Bible（圣经）and the dictionary.The famous detective stories were written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Though he studied medicine and managed to practise it, writing became his pleasure in life and made him famous all over the world. In addition to his gift in writing detective stories, he had a medical background that enabled him to be of service during wars and journeys to both Antarctica and Africa.During his university years, Doyle found his studies dull but loved watching his unusual teachers. One of these was Dr. Joseph Bell, who liked to observe to find solutions to problems. While Bell c ould guess people’s jobs just by observing them carefully, he was also cold to his patients. And so Doyle’s famous Holmes was born a confident detective with a keen eye but an indifferent（冷漠的）attitude.Doyle began to publish detective stories of Sherlock Holmes in The Strand magazine in 1891 and achieved great success. These exciting and enjoyable adventures attracted the British middle class who lined up to buy magazines and read them. Doyle, however, felt Holmes was blocking his desire to write historical novels and killed him off in 1893. Angry letters and protest failed to bring Holmes back until 8 years later.Holmes continued being popular through new novels, BBC’s TV shows and the Robert Downey Jr. films. Some fans are even crazy about Sherlock Holmes. A group of fans called Sherlockians claim（宣称）that Sherlock Holmes was a real person and his stories are historical record. As they work to prove their claims and as books and films about Holmes continue to fill our homes, our favourite detective certainly lives on.（299 words）88. Are Sherlock Holmes’s stories the most read material in the world?89. How could Dr. Joseph Bell guess people’s jobs?90. Why did Doyle kill Holmes off in 1893?91. When did Doyle bring Holmes back to his stories?92. What do Sherlockians mainly do to show their love for Sherlock Holmes?They work to prove that _______________________________________________93.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（14分）When I was in high school, I worked part-time helping Dad sell fruits and vegetables at a market. One day, as I was preparing the fruits, a little boy came by with his mom and sister. He was about eight years old, and the girl, six or seven. They were looking at the fruits in front of me.I heard the kids say to their mom in French.“They’re good!”I knew it was French because I can speak and understand it.Then I noticed how the mom was picking the fruits. At first I thought she was really looking at the fruits because she was facing them. But then I noticed how much she had to feel and smell each one as she picked them out. And she often asked her son if it looked okay, but looked way above where his face was. Putting what I saw together, I was sure she was blind.Both of the kids continued to help their mom pick out the fruits. The son made sure the fruits were not obviously bad, and the daughter handed them to her mom. The woman then felt each one and smiled, and the daughter would put them into their basket. The kids were smiling while helping their mom pick the fruits out.Their smile and gentle manner moved me in a way that never happened before. It was so beautiful to see such young kids so willingly help. Most kids that age would be picking outcandies or toys in a store for themselves, instead of helping their mom pick out fruits as the two kids did.It was great to see the moment with my own eyes, but not so great because I didn’t tell the mom how beautiful her children were in their language. This is what I feel sorry to this day.88. Where did the writer help his dad sell fruits and vegetables?89. What did the woman and her kids come to the market to buy?90. How was the woman picking the fruits?91. Why did the woman have to feel and smell each one as she picked them out?92. Were the kids glad to help their mom pick the fruits out?93. What do you think the beautiful moment is? Give the detail.嘉定区初三英语第一学期期末质量抽查试卷D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（14分）The American high school author named Juliette Turner has published her third book aimed at middle school readers. With her new novel That’s Not Hay in My Hair, she has become a new star in the world of publishing.Turner is just 18 years old. After she finished fourth grade in New York, she moved to Cooke County, Texas, with her mother where she started a new life working with horses and cattle and her writing career.“My mother and I were the only people living there,” Turner said. “It was just the two of us breaking the ice on the cow-water trough(奶牛饮水槽).”Turner’s mother, Janine Turner, is a famous actress in the US. Life in Cooke County was not as glamorous(令人向往的) as the life she had lived before. But for Turner, rural(农村的) life gave her a lot of material to write about.That’s Not Hay in My Hair is unlike Turner’s first two books. “Everything that happened in the book actually happened in the lives of my mom and I.” she said. The adventures were too crazy to believe, but it all happened exactly how it’s written.Indeed, Janine Turner was one of the first people to read the book. “I’ve been too busy doing my own things before. She’s written these books all by herself. I didn’t even read this one until it was finished,” said Janine, “She has an amazing power.”As Turner is thinking about her upcom ing college life, she hasn’t decided whether her adulthood will be spent in a city or in the country.“I will always be a country girl at heart,” she said. “I love the country life. It is where I feel at peace and at home. I don’t know where life is takin g me at the moment. But I will always return home to the country and to my mom. It’s where my roots are.”88. Who did Juliette Turner’s new novel That’s Not Hay in My Hair mainly aim at?89. When and where did the young author start her writing career?90. Life in Cooke County was not the same as the life the girl had lived before, was it?91. How is That’s Not Hay in My Hair different from Juliette’s first two books?92.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（14分）Wassily Kandinsky was a Russian painter. He developed a way of painting called abstract art. This art uses colours, shapes and lines. He had many ideas about colour. He believed that colours communicated certain qualities and that the colours that surround us have a powerful influence on us. Most of us have a favourite colour and this favourite colour makes us feel good, too.Kandinsky thought that yellow was a warm exciting colour that could make us feel happy. In comparison, blue was a peaceful colour that could make a person feel more relaxed. The colourgreen brings peace and stillness and makes us feel close to nature. White he thought was a colour associated with harmony, silence and cleanliness, while black was linked to improving confidence. Orange is a healthy colour with a fun side to it. Schools use bright colours to encourage children to take part in activity and learning.Age influence our choice of favourite colours. Children like the colour yellow. As children become adults, yellow becomes less popular as a favourite colour. Older people seem to like blues and purples more than reds and oranges. This kind of knowledge about colours can be powerful in advertising and website design. It can have effect on the success of these with their readers. If you are designing a website for children, the colour yellow would probably make it more successful. If you are designing a website for older people, the use of blues and purples would make it more successful than the use of yellow. It would seem that the power of colour is interesting as a subject.Colours seem to influence more than we could imagine in our lives. It is interesting to note that different meanings in different cultures. Red is often thought of as the colour of danger, love and passion in the West. In China, red represents good luck, South Africa, it is the colour associated with death. In Western cultures, black is the colour associated with death, while in Japan, white is the color of death. Purple is the colour of death in Thailand, but in the West, it is the colour of royalty, wealth and luxury.88.Who developed a way of painting called abstract art?89.Did Wassily Kandinsky believe the colours that surround us have a powerful influence on us?90.According to Kandinsky, if you want to be relaxed, what colour would you choose?91.Why do advertising and website design use different colours for different readers?92.How can a website attract older people more according to the passage?93.“Red is often thought of as the colour of danger, love and passion in the West.” Which one of the three ideas do you agree with in China?

If so, you’re not alone.Many people use apps(手机软件) like MeituXiuxiu to edit photos before posting them on social media. Some teenagers are even having plastic surgery(整容) at an early age. Zeng, a senior2 student from Chengdu, had a double eyelid surgery done this summer. She and many of her classmates believe bigger eyes look more beautiful.As teenagers’ bodies grow and change, they become aware of the small est flaw(缺陷) in their looks. They are very worried about it. This can affect their health.According to Huxiu News, over 60 percent of girls refuse to take part in some daily activities such as going to school, because they feel bad about their looks. As much as 31 percent of teenagers do not want to speak up in class because they worry that others will notice their looks.One of the main causes is advertising, TV shows and social media. Pictures of “perfect” faces and bodies are everywhere. They suggest that having large eyes, pale skin and skinny bodies is the only way to be beautiful. Magazines give tips about how to lose weight “in days”. Advertisements suggest that you should whiten your skin using certain products. And TV shows often make fun of overweight characters. Seeing all these things can make people believe that they should change their bodies.So what should we do? According to Nancy Etcoff of the Harvard Medical School, “We need to help young people in many ways. These ways can include educating students about body confidence in school, as well as encouraging parents to talk to their kids about this topic. After all, beauty comes in all shapes and sizes,” Etcoff said.88. Do many teenagers have plastic surgery at an early age?89. How do teenagers probably feel when they are aware of the smallest flaw in their looks?90. How many girls refuse to take part in some daily activities because of the bad feeling about their looks?91. What are “perfect” faces and bodies according to advertising, T V shows and social media?92. What does it mean by saying “…, beauty comes in all shapes and sizes.”?93.

One morning when I was 16, Dad told me I could drive him intoa village, about 18 miles away, if I took the car to be serviced (保养) at a nearly garage. Thinking that I had just learned to drive, and hardly had the chance to use the car, I agreed happily. I drove Dad into the village and made sure to pick him up at 4pm.

Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（14分）Chinese VS American SchoolsThere are many differences between the Chinese and American school systems.Firstly, the subjects that students learn in Chinese schools are the same across China. Almost all classes in the country—whether they are in math, science or English—will use similar books and materials. The education goals for the country are set by the government. Students don’t have many choices of subjects they can take. However, in the USA, the 50 states all have slightlydifferent school systems. Students take basic classes such as math, science and English, but they may also choose classes like computer science, music art and business.Secondly, the exam system is part of Chinese tradition. For hundreds of years, the Chinese have used exams to decide which people were the best to work in the government. Today, the exam system is based to decide which university students should attend and what they will study. In the USA, classes set tests, but students from different schools don’t take the same test. Students apply to the universities they want to go to. They have to send their grades and write a letter about what they choose to study.Class sizes are different. Teachers in China teach two classes a day, and they may have 50 to 60 students in a class. American teachers usually teach five or six classes a day because the classes are much smaller in each.Chinese students stay within the same group while they are at a school. In the Chinese system, this group of students will learn their subjects together. Often, they will not switch（转换）classrooms. Instead, teachers will come to their classroom. In America, students are not grouped. Students can take a class together but then _______________________________. They can have up to eight classes a day.88. Students in Chinese schools learn the same material, don’t they?89. Who sets the Chinese education goals?90. How do American students apply to the universities they want to go?91. Why do American teachers usually teach more classes than Chinese teachers a day?92. How many difference between Chinese and American schools are mentioned in the passage?93.

They have trouble paying attention to the teacher for longer than a few minutes, and they seem to forget things the teachers tells them. What is the manner with them? Many doctors think they need medicine, so they give the children a drug c_____82____ Ritalin(利他林). It is supposed to help them settle down and pay better attention. It works, but it is also dangerous. Ritalin has some bad side effects, and it can even kill children who take too much. Because of the serious side effects of Ritalin, many people think it is not good for children.Ritalin seems to affect both a child’s mind and body . The drug does help children calm down and focus, but some scientists claim( 声 称 ) that Ritalin decreases the flow of blood to the b____83_____. This effects a child’s thinking and memory and makes it more difficult to learn. Scientists also think that the drug might l_____84____ a child’s ability to grow and an cause troublesleeping.Another problem is that children can take too much of the drug.Some children like the way the drug makes t_____85____feel,so they take more than they should.They know this is wrong,but they cannot stop,much the same as people who cannot stop smoking.A third problem is that doctors do not know if the drug is really safe or not.Doctors do not know what happens to children who take this drug for a long time.They do not know if these children show side effects after they grow up.Ritalin might help when children are young but are there bad effects l____86_____in life?Because nobody knows for sure,some scientists say that Ritalin should not be used.Today,some doctors and teachers say that there are better ways than drugs to help children with attention problems.One good idea is to give children better food and make sure they get more rest.Another way to help children with attention problems is to find teachers who have special training with a_____87____children.Such teachers know how to help these children learn.Another idea is for parents and teachers to simply be patient.Most children’s attention will improve naturally as they get older.Parents and teachers just have to give these children time to develop.D.Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)It happened about one year ago.My mom wanted to visit her sister who lived in America.Since we lived in the Ukraine(乌克兰),my mom had to get agreement from our government to go to America.After she got the agreement to go and all of the paper work was done,she was ready to go.Then came the bad part.She had to be away from my dad,my two sister,and me for about three months.From our city,my mum had to go to New Y ork by plane.My sisters,my dad and I stood and watched the plane leave until we couldn’t see it any more.The next day,we got a call from our mom.She said that her sister met her in New Y ork and from there,they drove to the place where my aunt lived.She also said that it was really nice in America,but she missed her very much.It was really hard to live without my mom,without her help or her advice,but I got over it.After about three months my mom was coming home.My dad my sister went to pick my mom up from the airport.It was very far and my mom had a lot of bags.My younger sister and I waited for them at home.W e waited and waited,and then it was late,but they weren’t back.Then we got a call from our dad.He said that there was a big snowstorm in New Y ork and the plane couldn’t leave until the storm was over,so our mum would be late.When they finally got home,I was really happy. My mum had a lot of gifts for us,but she was the best one.88.Why did the writer’s mother fly to New Y ork?89.How long did the writer’s mother have to be away from home?90.Who saw off the writer’s mother at the airport?91.The writer met his mother at the airport with his dad,didn’t he?92.Why didn’t his mother’s plane arrive on time?93.What was the best gift for the writer?VII.Writing(作文)94.Write at least60words about the topic―My Ideal Weekend‖.(以―我理想的周末‖为题写一篇不少于60个词的短文，标点符号不占格。

Listen to the passage and tell whether the following statements are true or false ( 判断下列句子是否符合你听到的短文内容,符合的用“T"表示, 不符合的用“F”表示 )When you're having a holiday, one of the main questions to ask is which hotel or apartment to choose. Yet when it comes to France, you have another special choice: tree houses.Tree houses are big news in France and many campsites now offer them to travelers as a new choice besides mobile homes and tents. The price may be a little higher, but they do give you the chance to relive childhood memories, or create them for your own children. Living in a tree house, you have every right to let your imagination run wild.Alain Laurens, one of France’s top tree house designers, said, "People like things that connect them with their childhood. All of us had the experience of building a den(小洞穴) at some point when we were young and people like that feeling of freedom when they are children.”Its fairy-tale style gives travelers a special feeling, such as living like a forest king and waking up into the fresh morning air.Another kind of tree house is the “star cube (立方体)”. It gives you the chance to both sleep in the open air and stare at the stars shining in the sky. Each "star cube" not only offers all the comfortable living materials you will expect from a hotel room, but also gives you a chance to watch the sky by using a telescope. The windows in the roof allow you to stare at the stars from your bed when you are going to sleep.(15.F 16.F 17.T 18.T 19.T 20.F)D. Listen to the passage and fill in the blanks (听短文填空,完成下列句子。

It falls on the 25th day of the Jewish month of Kislev(犹太教历), which is usually sometime in December. The festival celebrates the time, over 2,000 years ago, when the Jewish people fought against an emperor who would not let them follow their own traditions and religion(宗教). When the Jewish people won back their temple in Jerusalem(耶路撒冷), they found there was only enough holy(神圣的) oil to keep the sacred light (神圣之灯)burning for one day. However, to their surprise, this small amount of oil kept the light burning for eight days and nights, until the people had time to make more oil.At the center of the Hanukkah celebrations is a candlestick (called a Menorah) that holds nine candles. On the first night of Hanukkah the first candle is lit, and each day this candle is used to light another candle, until on the eighth day, the last day, all the candles are lit. During Hanukkah, people go to the synagogue (犹太教堂) to pray and to remember the miracle (奇迹) of the holy oil. Hanukkah is a time for family and friends to come together. People exchange gifts and greeting cards, and children go to parties. Parents often give their children money at Hanukkah. Potato cakes, called latkes, are a traditional Hanukkah food.

Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题)The Panama Canal-----Connecting OceansA short canal saves ships thousand of milesThe Panama Canal( 巴拿马运河) is an artificial51-mile waterway in Panama that connects the AtlanticOcean with the Pacific Ocean. The idea for a Panama canaldates back to the discovery of the Isthmus of Panama(巴拿马地峡) by Spanish explorer Vasco De Balboa in 1513. Hediscovered how narrow it was. Only 80.5 kilometers ofland separated the Atlantic from the Pacific! The Spanish surveyed the area in hopes ofbuilding a canal. But the local governor(地方长官) decided it was impossible.Fast-forward to 1869, Ferdinand De Lesseps had completed the 163-km-longSuez Canal(苏伊士运河), a waterway linking Europe and Asia. France asked him torepeat his success at Panama. He agreed to have a try. When digging started in 1881,Ferdinand De Lesseps thought building a canal across Panama would be easy. But he didn’t realize that digging in a jungle(丛林) would be so dangerous. Ferdinand De Lesseps and his team abandoned (放弃) their project after thousands of worker died from diseases caused by mosquitoes(蚊子). American President Theodore Roosevelt quickly took over where the French crew had left off. He bought the canal property(运河的所有权) and sent a team of workers to finish the project. Led by John Stevens, the American team got rid of the mosquitoes. This effort helped the team of nearly 40,000 workers to stay healthy and productive(富有成效的). The team used powerful steam shovels(蒸汽挖土机) to make a path for the canal. But even with the help of such large equipment, the work progressed slowly. Finally, after nearly 10 years of non-stop digging, the canal successfully opened in 1914. The story didn’t make the headlines, though. The public was focused on World War I. Therefore the canal wasn’t dedicated(举行落成典礼) until July 12, 1920. Since the canal first opened, more than 960,000 ships have traveled through it. The Panama Canal has become an important link in global shipping. A journey that used to take moths now take two weeks.88. How wide was the Isthmus of Panama which separated the Atlantic from the Pacific?89. Did the local governor agree to build a canal?90. Who bought the Panama Canal property?91.
