A On 27 August, 1783 , the people of the village of Comese, in France, looked up into the sky and saw a strange and terrible animal. It was huge and round, flying down from the sky. It landed in the field just outside the village. It was clear to the people of Comese that they had to defend themselves. The animal was clearly some kind of terrible “spirit”. They were afraid of the spirit but they were also very brave . They rushed out into the field and fought the animal with knives and sticks and farming tools. The “spirit” made terrible noises, like an animal that can breathe only with great difficulty. But that was not the worst thing. When the villagers cut into the spirit’s skin, it gave off a horrible smell, and even after the villagers had cut the thing open ,it still moved .Finally the villagers tied it to a horse .The horse ran through the fields and the “spirit” was torn to pieces . What was the terrible spirit? The answer is that it was one of the first hot air balloon. Its skin was made of silk and a kind of rubber. The terrible smell was the hot air inside the balloon .When the air got out through the cuts in the skin ,it also caused the horrible noises. 56.The spirit landed______. A. in the village B. near a house C. a long way from the village D. not very far from the village 57.The terrible noises were made because _______. A. the spirit could hardly breathe B. the spirit wanted to frighten the villagers C. the spirit was afraid of the villagers D. the hot air got out through the skin 58.The terrible smell was______.

Snake meat in various flavors(风味) is often seen in restaurant ads. It seems that eating snake is now in vogue(盛行), and if you haven’t eaten snake yet ,you are considered “out of date”. But I wonder whether all of the trends are worth following. Some people may defend themselves by saying that snake meat is nutritious(有营养的).But these people don’t realize that mice and worms often comprise(组成) a snake’s diet, there are many parasites(寄生虫) found inside snakes. Thus, they may do harm to our health. Apart from this, I’m sorry to see that more and more snakes are being killed by man’s cruel knife. According to the English newspaper Shanghai Star, about 1000 tons of snakes are eaten every year in China, In Shenzhen of Guangdong Province, sometimes as many as 10 tons of snakes are served on tables in a single day. These figures alert（使警惕）us that if we still turn blind eyes to this continuous movement against snakes , a vicious(恶性的) cycle will be created. If more sakes are eaten by people, the number of snakes will drop, which will make an increase in mice and worms population, which will result in a decrease of crop output. This will make more people hungry. Who will see such tragedy happen? So let us start not to eat snakes any more because “to protect the snake is to protect ourselves”. 61.This passage tries to advise people______ A to keep ourselves healthy B to protect snakes and not to eat them C to protect mice and worms D not to eat mice and worms 62. The parasites in the snake come from______ A its diet B mice C worms D snakes 63. What will happen if we continue eating snakes? A Crop output will be increased B A vicious cycle will be created C More people will turn blind eyes to it D Only mice will damage the crops 64. The vicious cycle may be like this:______ A more snakes, more mice and worms, less crop output B less snakes, more mice and worms , more crop output C less snakes, more mice and worms, less crop output D more snakes, less mice and worms, more crop output 65. What’s the best title of this passage? A Snake Meat in Various Flavors B Protect the Snake is to Protect Ourselves C Eating Snakes in Vogue D Let’s Not Eat Snakes Any More C Recorded background music first found is way into factories, shops and restaurants in the USA . But it soon spread to other parts of the world. Now it is becoming increasingly difficult to go shopping or eat a meal without listening to music. The best-known supplier of background music is an American company called “Muzak”. This word “Muzak” is now commonly used in English to refer to recorded music played continuously in restaurant, places of work, etc. The company has carried over a hundred studies which show that background music can create a pleasant atmosphere and improve productivity(生产效率). It must be used in the right way ,though .If the type of “Muzak” is wrong, it may well cause an entire factory to sleep! 66. Which of the following statements is true?______. A Background music is only used in the USA B Background music is used all over the world except the USA C Most shops and restaurants use background music now D It’s very difficult to listen to background music 67.

It is famous not because of its beauty or size, but because it leans dangerously to one side. Each year the tower attracts thousands of visitors from all over the world The leaning tower was founded in the city of Pisa in Italy. It reaches a height of 180 feet and has 8 storeys. At the top there is a belfry(钟塔). Visitor can climb to the top and step out for a good view of the city below. Work on building the tower began in 1174. First, a foundation of stones was laid 20 metres deep into the soft ground. Tree trunks were used as piles .Then ,the construction of the tower started. But , as the tower was being built, it began to lean to the south . The work was stopped several times. The builders took measures to correct the tower’s leaning but did not succeed. Today the tower leans to the south and also curves towards the north . It is said that the tower has leaned more than 17 feet . Over the past years, various proposals have been made to stop the tower from leaning further and to prevent its collapse. Some people would like to pull it down and rebuild it on stronger foundations. Others have suggested pouring concrete around the base of the tower to stop it from leaning further. If nothing is done, the tower might collapse very soon. But until it is rebuilt or straightened, it will remain as one of the most fascinating architectural mistakes in the world. 71.
