It says that the island was once the home of the Konoh people. The name Konoh was mispronounced and finally became “Coney.”‎ Another explanation finds the name connected with the arrival of Henry Hudson in New York‎ ‎Harbor in 1609. According to it, John Coleman, Hudson’s right-hand man, was killed by Indians. To honor him, people named the island after him.‎ The Dutch settled in Manhattan in1624, and they became to Coney Island soon afterwards. Since the Dutch word for rabbit (兔子) was konijn and the island had a large population of wild rabbits, many people have supposed this fact to have led to the name. There was a different story about the Dutch word. The Dutch fought the Indians there and were believed to have said that their enemies “ran like rabbits.”‎ According to an article in a magazine, an Irish captain named Peter O’ Connor sailed between New York and Ireland in the late 1700s, and he named Coney Island after an island that was close to his home in Ireland and of the same size as the American island.‎ Unfortunately, there is little evidence (证据) that the Dutch, or the English after them, used any word “Coney” for several centuries. There is a lot of evidence, however, that the name Coney Island came into use in the first half the 19th century, after a ferry (渡船) service to carry passengers from the island to the mainland.‎ ‎54. According to the passenger, the name Coney______.‎ ‎ A. was mispronounced by the Konoh Coleman B. was given by a man called John Coleman C. comes from an island close to the English coast D. is close in pronunciation to a Dutch word ‎55. It is said that John Coleman ______.‎ ‎ A. used his right hand better than the left one B. was an important assistant of Henry Hudson C. killed many Indians in battles in 1609‎ D. was the first man to reach the island ‎56. The writer believes that the name Coney Island most probably _____.‎ ‎ A. has a history of less than 200 years B. came into use several hundred years ago C. was used first by the English, not the Dutch D. is related to the sail from New York to ‎Ireland ‎57. From the passage we know that the word mystery means something ____.‎ ‎ A. that history books keep a record of ‎ B. people have found explanations for C. that has not been known enough about D. people have not yet thought about C Ben Carson, a doctor at Johns Hopkins Children’s center, talks about how he grew up in a poor Detroit Neighborhood, when peer (同龄人) pressure almost controlled his behavior and even his clothes. He wanted so badly to be considered cool that he begged his mother to buy him an expensive Italian shirt.‎ ‎“My mother made me a deal,” Carson remembers, “She said, ‘I’ll give you all the money I make next week. You’ll be in charge of the family finance (财务)—buying food and other necessities and paying the bills. Whatever you have left over you can spend on whatever you want.’”‎ ‎“I thought, this is going to be great,” Carson says, “I bought things we needed most and then ‎ began going through the bills. Of course I ran completely out of money long before everything was paid.”‎ Then I realized my mother, with her third-grade education, was a financial genius (理财能手)—just to keep food on our table and clothes on our backs with such a small sum of money. I’d been a fool. I wanted her to buy me a ＄‎75 ‎shirt when she only took home ＄‎100 ‎a week, cleaning other people’s floors and washing their toilets. I took a hard look at my behavior and wondered how I could be so selfish.”‎ ‎“I started studying again. My grades went back up to A’s. Some of my peers laughed at me because I did not follow their pattern. But I refused to let that trouble me, because I had a goal.”‎ The experience had a lasting effect, “I not only saw and felt the difference my mother made in my life, I am living out that difference as a man.”‎ ‎58. When Ben Carson was young, he _______.‎ A. wanted to be as cool as other boys of his age B. tried to attract girls with his cool manner C. was fond of improving family finances D. was seldom good at his lessons ‎59. By saying “My mother made me a deal”, Ben Carson meant that his mother ____.‎ A. refused to buy him the shirt B. made an agreement with him C. asked him to deal with the problem D. showed him how to save money ‎60. Ben Carson started studying hard again and rose back to the top because_____.‎ A. he had got his shirt anyway B. he got his mother as his teacher C. he wanted to be a financial genius ‎ D. he had a better goal to run after ‎61. Ben Carson’s story tells us that ______.‎ A. a boy should not learn from his peers B. he didn’t understand his mother as a boy C. what his mother taught him has changed his life D. people with little education may become a genius D Most people can remember a time in their lives when they learned something almost by accident, that is, without consciously (有意识地) trying to learn it. Often this kind of learning happens when we are in fact trying to learn something else. For example, many people learn a number of English words not by memorizing them or studying them directly, but by doing something they enjoy, like listening to popular songs that contain them. Similarly, some people learn words in Chinese or Japanese nit by studying those languages directly, but by studying martial arts, such as kungfu or aikido, in which Chinese or Japanese terms are used. Foreign students in the United States often learn the system (体系) of measurement simply having to shop and cook for themselves. Those activities require them to learn words like pound, gallon, inch and yard.‎ Many educators believe that such a kind of learning, generally called content-based learning, is the best way to learn the rules of a system. Supporters of content-based learning argue that people can best understand and remember a system’s basic rules by coming upon them in the context (环境) of that system—not by studying and memorizing them out of context. Therefore, supporters of content-based learning feel that grammatical rules can best be mastered indirectly through reading and writing, rather than by mere memorization. Likewise, they feel that mathematical rules can best be learned by working out real-life problems where such rules are needed to find out the answers. In many cases, our own learning experiences may support the ideas that we have a deeper understanding of rules we find out from context than of those memorized out of context.‎ ‎62. By saying “they learned something almost by accident”, the author means “they learned something without _____.”‎ ‎ A. realizing they are learning it B. paying attention to the accident C. understanding what they are learning ‎ D. knowing what they should learn next ‎63. Shopping and cooking in a foreign country _____.‎ ‎ A. are necessary for students studying systems B. help one learn measure used in that country C. tell one what is needed to learn to live there D. require people to know how to measure ‎64. Many educators believe that the best way to master the basic rules of a system is ______.‎ A. learning them in the context B. producing problems from context C. memorizing the related words first D. fixing attention on the rules themselves ‎65. What does the author most probably think of the content-based learning?‎ A. He doubts it.‎ B. He supports it.‎ C. He considers it funny.‎ D. He finds it impractical.‎ 五 补全对话（共5句；每句满分为3分，共15分）‎ ‎ 根据中文提示，将对话中缺少的内容写在线上。这些句子必须符合英语表达习惯。打句号的地方，用陈述句；打问号的地方，用疑问句。‎ 提示： Michael 突然牙痛，于是到药房买药。药剂师为他检查后推荐了一种药，要他记住每四小时服一粒（pill）。同时叮嘱他如果两天后不见好的话，一定要去医院。‎ Pharmacist: Good morning.
