The teacher patted him on the back, and told him to to around to the others and explain how he had managed it. 42 by his newfound success, Joe moved quickly thoughout the room.

Her words still hurt: “The trouble with you is that you won’t put yourself in my place. Can’t you see things from my point of view?” I shook my head stubbornly—and felt the ache in my tooth. I’d thought I could hold out till my dentist came back from holiday, but the pain was really unbearable. I started calling the dentists in the phone book, but no one could see me immediately. Finally, at about lunchtime, I got lucky.‎ ‎“If you come by right now,” the receptionist said, “the dentist will fit you in.”‎ I took my purse and keys and rushed to my car. But suddenly I began to doubt about the dentist. What kind of dentist would be so eager to treat someone at such short notice? Why wasn’t he as busy as the others?‎ In the dentist’s office, I sat down and looked around. I saw nothing but the bare walls and I became even more worried. The assistant noticed my nervousness and placed her warm hand over my ice-cold one. ‎ When I told my fears, she laughed and said, ‘Don’t worry. The dentist is very good.”‎ ‎“How long do I have to wait for him?” I asked impatiently.‎ ‎“Come on, he is coming. Just lie down and relax.

We do know, however, that they existed over 5,500 years ago in ancient Asia.‎ The oldest known transport wheel was discovered in 2002 in Slovenia. It is over 5,100 years old. Evidence suggests that wheels for transport didn’t become popular for a while, though. This could be because animals did a perfectly good job of carrying farming tools and humans around.‎ But it could also be because of a difficult situation. While wheels need to roll on smooth surface, roads with smooth surfaces weren’t going to be constructed until there was plenty of demand for them. Eventually, road surfaces did become smoother, but this difficult situation appeared again a few centuries later. There had been no important dchanges in wheel and vehicle design before the arrival of modern road desgn.‎ In the mid-1700s, a Frenchman came up with a new design of road—a base layer (层) of large stones covered with a thin layer of smaller stones. A Scortsman improved on this desgn in the 1820s and a strong, lasting road surface became a reality. At around the same time, metal hubs (the central part of a wheel) came into being, followed by the pneumatic tyre (充气轮胎) in 1846. Alloy wheels were invented in 1967, sixty years after the appearnce of tramacked roads (柏油路). As wheel design took off, vehicles got faster and faster.‎ ‎64. What might explain why transport wheels didn’t become popular for some time?‎ ‎ A. Few knew how to use transport wheels.‎ ‎ B. Humans carried farmng tools just as well.‎ ‎ C. Anmals were a good means of transport.‎ ‎ D. The existence of transport wheels was not known.‎ ‎65. What do we know about road design from the passage?‎ ‎ A. It was easier than wheel design.‎ ‎ B. It improved after big changes in vehicle design.‎ ‎ C. It was promoted by fast-moving vehicles.‎ ‎ D. It provided conditions for wheel design to develop.‎ ‎66. How is the last paragraph mainly developed?‎ ‎ A. By giving examples.‎ ‎ B. By making comparisons.‎ ‎ C. By following time order.‎ ‎ D. By making classifications.‎ ‎67. What is teh passage mainly about?‎ ‎ A. The beginning of road design.‎ ‎ B. The development of transport wheels.‎ ‎ C. The history of public transport.‎ ‎ D. The invention of fast-moving vehicles.‎ D Not all bodies of water are so evidently alive as the Altlantic Ocean, an S-shaped body of water covering 33 million square miles. The Atlantic has, in a sense, replaced teh Mediterranean as the inland sea of Western civilization. Unlike real inland seas, which seem strangely still, the Atlantic is rich in oceanic liveliness. It is perhaps not surprising that its vitality has been much written about by ancient poets.‎ ‎“Srotm at Sea”, a short poem written around 700, is generally regarded as one of mankind’s earliest artisitc representations of teh Atlantic.‎ When the wind is from the west All the waves that cannot rest To the east must thunder on Where the bright tree of teh sun Is rooted in the ocean’s breast.‎ As the peom suggests, the Atlantic is never dead and dull. It is an ocean that moves, impressively and endlessly. It makes all kinds of noise—it is forever thundering, boiling, crashing, and whistling.‎ It is easy to imagine the Atlantic trying to draw breath—perhaps not so noticeably out in mid-ocean, but where it meets land, its waters bathing up and down a sandy beach. It mimics (模仿) mearly perfectly the steady breathing of a living creature. It is filled with symbiotic existences, too: unimaginable quantities of creatures, little and large alike, mix withine its depths in a kind of oceanic harmony, giving to the waters a feeling of heartbeat, a kind of sub-ocean vitality. And it has a psychology. It has personalities: sometmes peaceful and pleasant, on rare occastions rough and wild; always it is strong and striking.‎ ‎68. Unlike real inland seas, the Atlantic Ocean is _____.‎ ‎ A. always energetic ‎ B. lacking in liveliness ‎ C. shaped like a square ‎ D. favored by ancient poets ‎69. What is the purpose of using the poem “Storm at Sea” in the passage?‎ ‎ A. To describe teh movement of the waves.‎ ‎ B. To show teh strength of the storm.‎ ‎ C. To represent the power of the ocean.‎ ‎ D. To prove the vastness of the sea.‎ ‎70. What does teh undelined word “symbiotic” mean?‎ ‎ A. Living together.‎ ‎ B. Growing fast.‎ ‎ C. Moving harmoniously.‎ ‎ D. Breathing peacefully.‎ ‎71. In the last paragraph, the Atlantic is compared to _____.‎ ‎ A. a beautiful and poetic place ‎ B. a flesh and blood person ‎ C. a wonderful world ‎ D. a lovely animal E It is widely known that any English conversation begins with The Weather. Such a fixation with the weather finds experssion in Dr. Johnson’s famous comment that “When two English meet, their first talk is of weather.” Though Johnson’s observation is as accuarate now as it was over two hundred years ago, most commentators fail to come up with a convincing explanation for this English weather-speak.‎ Bill Bryson, for example, concludes that, as the English weather is not at all exciting, the obsession with it can hardly be understood. He argues that “To an outsider, the most striking thing about the English weather is that there is not very much of it.” Simply, the reason is that the unusual and unpredictable weather is almost unknown in the British Isles.‎ Jeremy Paxman, however, disagree with Bryson, arguing that the English weather is by nature attractive. Bryson si wrong, he says, because the English preference for the weather has nothing to do with the natural phenomena. “The interest is less in the phenomena themselves, but in undertainty.” According to him, the weather in england is very changeable and uncertain and it attracts the English as well as the outsider.‎ Bryson and Paxman stand for common misconceptions about the weather-speak among the English. Both commentatiors, somehow, are missing the point. The English weather conversation is not really about the weather at all. English weather-speak is a system of signs, which is developed to help the speakers overcome the natural reserve and actually talk to each other. Everyone knows conversations starting with weather-speak are not requests for weather data. Rather, they are routine greetings, conversation starters or the blank “fillers”. In other words, English weather-speak is a means of social bonding.‎ ‎72. The author mentions Dr. Johnson’s comment to show that _____.‎ ‎ A. most commentators agree with Dr. Johnson ‎ B. Dr. Johnson is famous for his weather observation ‎ C. the comment was accurate two hundred years ago ‎ D. English conversations usually start with the weather ‎73. What does the underlined word “obsession” most probably refer to?‎ ‎ A. A social trend.‎ ‎ B. An emotional state.‎ ‎ C. A historical concept.‎ ‎ D. An unknown phenomenon.‎ ‎74. According to the passage, Jeremy Paxman believes that _____.‎ ‎ A. Bill Bryson has little knowledge of the weather ‎ B. there is nothing special about the English weather ‎ C. the English weather attracts people to the British Isles ‎ D. English people talk about the weather for its uncertainty ‎75. What is the author’s main purpose of writingthe passage?‎ ‎ A. To explain what English weather-speak is about.‎ ‎ B. To analyse misconceptions about the English weather.‎ ‎ C. To find fault with both Bill Bryson and Jeremy Paxman.‎ ‎ D. To convince people that the English weather is changeable.‎ 五、写作（共两个写作任务，满分35分）‎ 写作一（满分15分）‎ 请结合材料，按要求用英语写作。‎ A mother said, “My son is always on the phone, sleeping, out with his friends, or in his room.
