Small shops usually close for an hour at lunchtime. One or two days a week--- usually Thursday and / or Friday--- some large food shops stay open until about 8:00 p.m. for late night shopping.Many shops are closed in the afternoon one day a week. The day is usually Wednesday or Thursday and it is a different day in different towns. Nearly all shops are closed on Sundays. Newspaper shops are open in the morning, and sell sweets and cigarettes as well. But not all the things can be sold on Sundays.Usually it is not difficult for foreign visitors to find where to buy things. Most shops sell the things that you want to buy. One problem is stamps. In Britain you can only buy these at post offices. Many large food shops are self-service. When you go into one of these shops, you take a basket and you put the things you wish to buy into this. You pay for everything just before you leave. If anyone tries to take things from a shop without paying they are almost certain to be caught, because most shops have detectives.When you are waiting to be served in a shop, it is important not to try to be served before people who arrive before you. Many foreign people are surprised at the British way of queuing.44. According to the passage, which of the following sentences is NOT true?A. Some large food shops open for about 11 hours on Thursday or Friday.B. Many shops are closed in the afternoon once a week on Tuesday.C. Only a few things can be bought on Sundays.D. It is not difficult for foreign visitors to buy things in Britain.45. You can not buy ___________ in shops.A. cigarettesB. sweetsC. stampsD. clothes46. Which of the following is the best title?A. Shops in Britain.B. How to Buy Things in Britain.C. Something about BritainD. How Long Are the Britain Shops Open?( B )What is the sky? Where is it? How high is it? What lies above the sky?I am sure you have often asked these questions. They are very difficult to answer, aren’t they?If someone asks you: “What color is the sky?” I think maybe you will answer “Blue”. I am afraid you are wrong. The sky has no colors. When we see blue, it is the sunlight that is shining on little bits of dust in the air.Is the sky full of air? I am sure you have asked this question, too. We know that there is air all around the earth. Planes can’t fly without air. They need air to lift their wings. Planes can’t fly very high because as they go higher, the air gets thinner. If we go too high up in the sky, we find there is no air.Perhaps you can answer some of the questions now. What is the sky? Nothing. Where is it? It is all around the earth. The sky is a part of space.47. What color is the sky according to the writer?A. Blue.B. White.C. Black.D. Colorless.48. What is in the sky?A. It’s empty.B. It’s full of air.C. It has clouds.D. It has rains.49. What is the meaning of the underlined word “dust”?A. 灰尘B. 乌云C空气D雨滴( C )Mails, games, music, news, chat rooms and shopping! The Internet is part of the way we live today. It’s easy to get onto the Internet. The only thing we need to do is to use a modem（调制解调器） which is used for connecting a computer to a telephone line. The Internet is changing and growing all the time. More and more people have computers and use the Internet. Using the Internet means surfing the World Wide Web(That’s the ‘www’ you always hear about.). The Web has large numbers of websites in it. They are the places you go to get information and do things.Where do these websites come from? They are made by web designers(设计师). What happens when you click on a word or a picture? You are sent to another page. It’s all because of the web designer. Web designers do a lot of work by using a computer programming language.Is web design all about computer programming? No. It’s about making something new. Web designers must imagine a lot when they are making a website. It must look good and be fun to use. A big part of Web design is art. They choose the best pictures and colors to make the web site look good. They also write the things that you see on the website. An important part of their job is to share ideas with the website manager about how to design the website well.50. This passage is mainly about ___________.A. computer programming languageB. the web designers’ workC. the website manager’s workD. the way to get onto the Internet51. More and more people are using the Internet because it’s __________.A. easy and usefulB. beautiful and funnyC. colourful and hopefulD. changing and growing52.

Early on-something was missing, and later would be found somewhere else .I just thought I had forgotten where I put it, or perhaps my daughter was playing around with something .Then later on I would hear strange sounds when nobody was at home but me…..yet it was an old house, and sometimes old house did make little noises, so again. I didn’t really.Then things that I couldn’t explain started happening It was last November and I was at home alone cleaning house .When I was sweeping the kitchen floor, I felt a very cold wind blew my hair . I thought the kitchen window must have been opened, but when I checked it, it was closed. The windows were new, and there was no way any cold air came in.We all felt very strange and moved away from there in October 2002. I was never really frightened. It was just strange or someone was trying to get my attention or something.( ) 34. The house is ________ years old.A. about 97B. more than 100C. over 200D. about 92( ) 35.

You don’t need to care about those people who have beautifulhouses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you can’t al ways say you are poor and have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving（旋转）door. When it closes, it also opens .If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.( ) 38. Happiness is for __________.A. those who have large and beautiful housesB. those who have a lot of moneyC. all peopleD. those who have cars( ) 39. Which is true according to the passage?A.

However, his invention has changed our lives.He was born in London, England in 1955. When he was a small boy, Tim was interested in playing with electrical things. He studied science at Oxford University. He made his first computer from an old television at the age of 21.Tim started working on early computers. At that time, they were much bigger than now. He worked in England then Switzerland. Tim was really interested in two things, computers and how the brain works. How could the brain connect so many facts so quickly? He had to work with people all over the world. They shared information about computers. It was hard to manage all the information. He answered the same questions again and again. It took a lot of time. It was even difficult for computers in the same office in Switzerland to share information. Tim also forgot things easily. Could a computer work like a brain? Could it “talk” to other computers?There was an Internet already but it was difficult to use. In 1989, Tim Berners­Lee invented the World Wide Web (WWW) all by himself. This had a special language that helped computers talk to each other on the Internet. When people wanted to share information with others, they used the World Wide Web. The Internet grew quickly after that.Tim Berners­Lee doesn't think he did anything special. He says that all of the ideas about the Internet were already there. All he did was to put them together. He says that many other people worked together to make the Internet what it is today.Most inventors want to become rich. But Tim gave away the World Wide Web for nothing. He now works in America. He helps people share technology and wants the Internet to be free for everyone to use. Maybe he is the most important but least famous inventor in the world today!( )16.What was Tim Berners­Lee interested in？　A．Looking for jobs in different cities.B．Talking to people around the world.C．Studying how to connect computers.( )17.The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refers to “________”．A．Working on early computersB．Connecting different facts togetherC．Repeating the answers to the same questions　( )18.Why is Tim Berners­Lee one of the most important men in the world?A．He made information sharing on the Internet possible.B．He made the first computer when he was 21 years old.C．He helped people understand better how the brain works.( )19.In what order did the following events take place?a．Tim worked in England.b．Tim worked in Switzerland.c．Tim made his first computer.d．Tim invented the World Wide Web.e．Tim studied science at Oxford University.A．c－e－d－a－b B．e－b－a－c－dC．e－c－a－b－d( )20.What does the writer think of Tim Berners­Lee?A．He is not famous because he is not rich.B．He has changed our lives and he is great.C．He did nothing special but make people a good life.Ⅳ.根据语境或句意，用所给词的适当形式填空(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)21．Are they your favorite ________？(hero)22．This is a big class.
