In the morning, when everybody was enjoying holiday, earthquake began. It was about 7. 5 on the Ritcher scale. “There is nothing left between the sky and the earth any more. Everything has been pulled down,” said one of the villagers alive. “There is no water, no food and no one has come to help.”‎ Nobody died in Pakistan, a country next to India. The City of Lahore was lucky. In Lahore‎ American ‎School, where I was studying, all of the students were safe. They were in the field, so most children didn’t feel anything. The earthquake was felt by the teachers that were on the second floor. However, though Mrs. Young was also on the second floor, she didn't feel anything. She didn’t know what happened until a teacher told her about it. Those teachers who were on the other floors had different feelings. Mr. Emond, the maths teacher from Australia, said that when the earthquake started he thought there was something wrong with him, but then another teacher said that it was an earthquake. After those words Mr. Emond felt better. Mrs. Davis and Mr. Frost didn’t feel anything, either.‎ My mother didn’t feel anything. She didn’t even know that it was an earthquake till she saw a shaking (moving from side to side) light. My dad saw the computer shaking and then he looked out of the window and saw many people going out.‎ ‎56. People use “Ritcher scale” to tell .‎ A. where the earthquake takes place B. when the earthquake takes place C. how serious the earthquake is D. how long the earthquake lasts ‎57. We learn that from the sentence “There is nothing left between the sky and the earth any more.”‎ A. India is a large country B. the Indian people had nothing after the earthquake C. there is no tall building in ‎India D. the earthquake in India was serious ‎58. The City of Lahore is .‎ A. in India B. in America C. in Pakistan D. in ‎Australia ‎59. Which of the following sentences is true?‎ A. I was with my parents when the earthquake happened.‎ B. The earthquake in the city of Lahore wasn’t serious.‎ C. People in the City of Lahore were frightened when they knew it was an earthquake.‎ D. The teachers in Lahore‎ American ‎School were afraid of the earthquake.‎ B ‎ Head teacher, teachers, grandparents, parents and classmates, I’m very proud that I have been chosen to speak to you all today. I’m a bit nervous as I’ve never made a speech before to so many people, so please forgive me if it shows!‎ ‎ As we all know, this is the school leavers’ party, and it’s time to say goodbye to everyone. We’re sorry to leave you at the end of our junior high school education, and we promise that we'll never forget the happy times we have spent in these buildings with you all.‎ ‎ I’d like to thank three groups of people for the three things I’ve learnt while I’ve been a pupil at our school. The three things are friendship, love and knowledge.‎ ‎ The first group is my friends, and what I’ve learnt is the importance of friendship. We’ve worked hard together, we’ve even shared some difficult times together, but we’ve also had a lot of fun. Many of us will go to new schools and we may not see each other so often in the future. Others will go on to senior high school and continue their close friendships. But friends don’t have to see each other all the time. Sometimes the friends you treasure most are the friends you see less often. A life without old friends is like a day without sunshine. We'll always stay in touch.‎ ‎ The second group is our parents and grandparents. We thank you for the love you have shown us during our years at junior high school, for making a home where we feel both safe and relaxed, and where we can prepare ourselves for our school days. We also thank you for your help with our homework. How many of us owe our good grades to the suggestions you have made during those long evenings?‎ ‎ And finally, the third group is our teachers. We can never pay you back for your kindness, your patience, and gift of knowledge which you have offered us; sometimes you’ve made us work very hard. But you have always been fair and you’ll always be our role models. There’s a saying from Ireland which is a favourite of mine: Strangers are only friends you haven’t met yet.‎ I couldn’t say it better myself. So from the bottom of my heart, I thank you all and wish you success for the future.‎ 密 封 装 订 线 密 封 线 内 不 要 答 题 ‎60. Who was the speech made by?‎ ‎ A. A teacher B. A student C. A parent D.

They lived on wild animals, fruits and other plants. ‎ ‎ As time passed, people learned to raise animals and crops. Sometimes, families produced more than they needed, so they started to trade with other families. 78 Later, people began to use money as a means of exchange. However, it was not the kind of money we use today. They used shells, rice, salt, large stones, etc.‎ ‎ During the 600s B.C, people began using coins as money. They soon found that coins were easier to carry than goods and lasted a long time. Later, countries began to make their own coins.‎ ‎ The Chinese were the first to use paper money, probably as early as the 11th century. The Italian traveler Marco Polo saw the Chinese using money when he visited China in the 1200s. 79 However, European countries did not start using paper money until 1600s.‎ ‎ Today, we have many ways to pay for things. We do not use coins or paper money. Often, people prefer to pay for things by card. Paying with a card is easier and safer than carrying around a lot of “real” money.‎ ‎（一）根据短文内容简要回答问题.‎ ‎76. Why did people start to trade?‎ ‎ ‎ ‎77. When did people begin to use paper money?‎ ‎ ‎ ‎（二）将短文中划线旳句子译成汉语.‎ ‎78. ‎ ‎79. ‎ ‎（三）请给短文拟一个适当旳标题.‎ 得分 评卷人 ‎ ‎ ‎80. ‎ 八、综合填空（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分）‎ 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，使短文意思完整.‎ In many big cities in the world, the overuse of cars is thought to be one of the major causes of air pollution. What will cars be 1 (81) in the future?‎ Some e (82) think that today’s cars are in trouble because they use too much petrol( 汽油 ). They say the car of the future will be much, much smaller. The car of tomorrow will be m (83) without a motor or air conditioning. It’ll have no radio and no lights. Tomorrow’s car will be an o (84) air car with no doors or windows. It needn’t have a pollution control system because it w (85) use petrol. In fact, this new car will be pushed by the driver’s feet. Very few people will be killed in accidents, because the top s (86) will be five miles per hour. However, we are also warned not to ask for pretty c (87), because the cars will come in grey only.‎ Other car experts do not hold the same idea. They are s (88) that the future will be happier. They think that all our problems will soon be solved by car companies with the production of the Supercar. Tomorrow’s car will be bigger, faster, and more comfortable than b (89). The Supercar will have four rooms, TVs, running water, heat, air conditioning, and maybe a swimming pool. Large families will travel on 1ong trips c (90).
