Having reached the highest point of our route according to plan, we discovered something the map had not told us. It was impossible to climb down into the Kingo valley. The river lay deep between mountain sides that were almost vertical（垂直）.We couldn’t find any animal tracks, which usually show the best way across country, and the slopes were covered so thickly with bushes that we could not see the nature of the ground. We had somehow to break through to the river which would give us our direction out of the mountains into the inhabited lowlands.
Our guide cut a narrow path through the bushes with his long knife and we followed in single file. Progress was slow. Then, when we thought we had really reached the river, we found ourselves instead on the edge of a cliff with a straight drop of 1,000 feet to the water below. We climbed back up the slope and began to look for another way down. We climbed slipped, sweated and scratched our hands to pieces and finally arrived at the river. Happily we came downhill along its bank without having to cut our way. However, after a few miles the river entered a steep-sided gap between rocks and suddenly dropped thirty-five feet over a waterfall. There was no path alongside it and no way round it.
Then one of the guides saw a way of overcoming the difficulty. There was a fallen tree lying upside down over the waterfall with its leafy top resting on the opposite bank below the falls. Without hesitation he climbed down the slippery trunk to show us how easy it was. Having got to the fork of the tree, he moved hand over hand along a branch for four or five feet with his legs hanging in space, then he dropped onto the flat bank the other side, throwing his arms in the air like a footballer who has scored goal, and cheerfully waving us on.
73．Having reached the highest point on their route, the travelers expected to be able to .
A．track animals to the river

A．it would lead them to the waterfall
B．it would show them which way to go
C．it was the only possible way out of the mountains
D．it was a quicker way than going over the mountains
75．One reason why the travelers took so long to get to the river was that .
A．it was too hot to move quickly
B．there was no proper path
C．they all tried to go different ways
D．they could not follow the animal tracks
76．To get past the waterfall the guide had to .
A．use a fallen tree as a kind of bridge
B．cross the river above the waterfall
C．slide down a steep river bank
D．swing across the river from a high branch

Since the early 1930s, Swiss banks had prided themselves on their system of banking secrecy and numbered accounts. Over the years, they had successfully shouldered every challenge to this system by their own government who, in turn, had been frequently urged by foreign governments to reveal information about the financial affairs to certain account holders. The result of this policy of secrecy was that a kind of mystique（神秘）had grown up around Swiss banking. There was a widely-held belief that Switzerland was irresistible（难以反抗的）to wealthy foreigners, mainly because of its numbered accounts and bankers’ unwillingness to ask inconvenient questions of account holders. Contributing to the mystique was the view that if this secrecy was ever given up, foreigners would fall over themselves in the rush to withdraw money, and the Swiss banking system would eventually collapse overnight.
To many, therefore, it came like a bolt out of the blue, when, in 1977, the Swiss banks announced they had signed an agreement with the Swiss National Bank (the Central Bank). The aim of the agreement was to prevent to improper use of the country’s bank secrecy laws, and its effect was to control strictly the system of secrecy.
The rules which the banks had agreed to observe made the opening of numbered accounts subject to much closer examination than before. The banks would be required, if necessary, to identify the origin of foreign money going into numbered and other accounts. The idea was to stop such accounts being used for dishonest purposes. Also they agreed not to accept funds resulting from tax avoidance or from crime.
The agreement represented essentially a tightening up of banking rules. Although the banks agreed to end relations with clients(客户) whose identities were unclear or who were performing improper acts, they were still not required to inform on a client to anyone, including the Swiss government. To some extent, therefore, the principle of secrecy had been kept.
77. Swiss banks took pride in___.
78. According to the passage, the widely-held belief that Switzerland was irresistible to wealthy foreigners was ___ by banks themselves.
A. denied B. criticized C. reviewed D. defended
79. In the last paragraph, the writer thinks that___.
80. The people are ______ when the Swiss Banks announced their agreement with the Swiss National Bank.
A. shocked B. pleased C. indifferent D. desperate

Tidy our dining hall in school
I hate the untidy dining hall in our school .Some people seem to treat it as if it were a rubbish area. They throw the leftover food about, on the table or on the ground. This makes the hall look unpleasant for us to come and eat there.
I have several solutions. First, get more people to form good habits by putting posters around the hall asking them to be more thoughtful of their behaviors and protect our environments. Second, make people pick up their own litter. We can do this by asking some students to walk around the hall and watch out for those that drop litter .We can make those who are found dropping litter stay behind and tidy up the hall after all the students have finished their meal .
I hope you find my ideas useful.
