The man traveling in the back of the ambulance which was running at a high speed along the streets of Baltimore that morning in 2008 had no business to be alive. By everything that was reasonable, and there were plenty of such things before, he should have been very dead indeed. But he wasn't. As the people in the hospital pointed out after they had examined him, he was only slightly hurt. Yet he had just fallen 150 feet down a hotel lift shaft(电梯通道)!
Unknown to the man, two things had occurred which were to affect his life that day. On the thirteenth floor of the hotel, somebody had carelessly left the lift gate open. Down in the basement, a pipe had burst and, it had flooded the bottom of the lift shaft to a depth of two feet.
Modern lifts have all sorts of fail-safe system to prevent accidents, but this was ancient equipment-unreliable, slow, dangerous, and suitable material to recycle.
The man had plenty of things to occupy his mind that morning. He had overslept. The hotel had forgotten to call him and now he was late for an important business appointment. He dressed quickly, shaved hurriedly, took hold of his briefcase and hurried off down the hotel corridor.
Good! The lift gate was open. The lift must be there. He need not press the button and wait while the large, clumsy lift made its way upwards. Without looking or thinking, he stepped out into space. The lift cage was, in fact, one floor above him on the
fourteenth. The world into which he had walked was a narrow space of not very fresh air, ending 150 feet below in two feet of dirty water.
The man fell, making his journey to the ground at a speed he had never dreamed of. Confused patterns, a rush of air, time enough to be afraid, split-second thoughts of death, then-crash! Perhaps this gave him the record for some sort of high-diving act. No doubt in future he always looked before he jumped. Certainly he learnt that this was no way to save time. The experts said that those two feet of water had saved his life.
59. What do we learn about the man? A. He fell from the 13th floor. B. He was hit by an ambulance.
C. He got caught in a serious flood. D. He made a record for high-diving.
60. By \"…had no business to be alivehe writer means that the man________.
A. had missed his business appointment B. was alive with excitement
C. was alive and this was surprising D. didn't do any business
61. The lift did not have a fail-safe system because it was________.
A. unreliable B. slow C. dangerous D. old
62. Which of the following was NOT the cause of the accident? A. A pipe burst.
B. The man overslept.
C. The hotel forgot to call him. D. Someone left the lift door open.
C
A gadget which makes water out of air could become the greatest household invention since the microwave.
Using the same technology as a dehumidifier(除湿器), the Water Mill is able to create a ready supply of drinking water because it can always get it from an unlimited source-the air.
The company behind the machine says not only does it offer an alternative to bottled water in developed countries, but it is a solution for the millions who face a daily water shortage. The machine works by drawing in wet air through a filter (过滤器) and over a cooling instrument which changes it into water droplets. It can produce up to 12 liters a day. The Water Mill will also produce more water when storms pass over, as the amount of water which is contained in the air increases. In keeping with its eco-development, the machine uses the same amount of electricity as three lights.
Inventor Jonathan Ritchey said: \"The demand for water is off the chart. So people are looking for freedom from water distribution systems that are shaky and unreliable.\"
The machine, which is about 3 feet wide, is likely to cost ￡800 when it goes on sale here in the spring. Its maker, Canadian firm Element Four, roughly calculates that a litre of water will cost around 20p to produce.
Environmentalists state that half the world's population will face water shortage because of climate change by 2080. One in five is said to lack access to safe drinking.
The Water Mill is not effective in areas where the amount of water contained in the air is below about 30 percent, but in Britain that won't be much of a problem.
63. What does the underlined word \"it\" refer to?
A. Drinking water. B. Invention. C. Microwave. D. Water Mill.
64. What do we learn about the machine? A. It works in the same way as microwaves.
B. It is very expensive for families to afford. C. It absorbs steam and turns it into water. D. It helps to make the water clean.
65. What does the passage lead us to believe?
A. The cost of water will go up. B. Bottled water will disappear sooner.
C. The machine is energy saving. D. The machine will be popular worldwide.
66. What's the best title for the passage?
A. A New Way to Solve Water Problem B. A Machine to Make Water out of Air
C. A Dehumidifier to Produce Water D. An Absolutely New Invention
D
Every profession, every art, and every science has its technical vocabulary. Its function is partly to name things or processes which can not be described in ordinary English. Such special terms are necessary in technical discussion of any kind. Being universally understood by the specialists of the particular science or art, these terms have the exactness of a mathematical formula(公式). Besides, they save time, for it is much more convenient to name a process than to describe it.
Different occupations, however, differ widely in the character of their special vocabularies. In trades and handicrafts, and other professions, like farming and fishery, that have occupied great numbers of men in the past, the technical vocabulary is very old. It consists largely of native words, or of borrowed words that have worked themselves into the very fibre of our language. As a consequence, though highly technical in many particulars, these vocabularies are more familiar in sound; and more generally understood, than most other technicalities. Yet every profession still possesses a large body of technical terms that remain extremely unfamiliar, even to educated speech. And the amount has been much increased in the last fifty years.
New terms are invented with the greatest freedom, and abandoned unconcernedly when they have served their turn. Most of the new inventions of words and expressions are restricted to special discussions, and seldom get into general conversation.
Yet no profession is, nowadays, as all professions once were, a closed association. Specialists in different fields share ideas and associate freely with each other. Furthermore, what is called \"popular science\" familiarizes everybody with modern views and recent discoveries. Any important experiment, though made in a remote lab, is at once reported in the newspaper, and everybody is soon talking about it-as in the case of the Roentgen rays and wireless telegraph. Thus our common speech is always taking up new technical terms and making them commonplace.
67. Technical terms are created so __________. A. specialists may communicate more easily B. people may enjoy varieties of occupations C. people may save time in everyday discussions
D. specialists may well accept mathematical formulas
68. The writer lists wireless telegraph as an example to show special words ______.
A. should represent popular science B. may become part of common speech
C. should be restricted to scientific fields D. may be considered great inventions of man 69. What can we infer from the passage? A. Nontechnical words may be replaced.
B. Media helps to popularize special terms. C. Various professionals exchange their terms. D. Educated people know most technical terms.
70. The author's main purpose in the text is to_________.
A. make a research B. argue a belief C. suggest a solution D. state a fact

8, 三、One possible version:
Community Service
During the winter vacation, the students in our community joined in the meaningful activity, in which all of us did our bit for our community.
First we went to visit an old lady who lived all alone. While we were in her home, one of us chatted with her and the rest helped do a thorough cleaning. We swept the floor and dusted the table. When the work was done, the house looked really neat and tidy. Then we went to the sports center, where different sports facilities needed polishing. We set out to work at once. In no time everything was dust-free. To make the environment clean, we also picked up the litter on the grass and along the paths. As the Spring Festival was around the corner, we put up New Year decorations on the billboard and a poster with the characters Happy Chinese New Year on it.
Having done all these, we saw a more pleasant community. Tired as we were, we felt happy as all of our work paid off.
9, 三、One possible version: In the picture we see a group of children playing hopscotch happily while a boy is sitting in front of his computer, fully absorbed
in a game.
This picture intends to show how children today and in the past spend their free time. In the old days, there was no modern equipment such as TV sets or computers, so children kill time, playing games outdoors. With the development of science and technology, children are so attracted by computer games that they become addicted and stay in front of the screen all day long. Unlike the kids who are playing hopscotch, which is a team game, the boy who tends to spend more time alone easily develops psychological problems such as a lack a sense of cooperation and communication skills.
So in my opinion, modern science may not benefit people.
