A) Choose the best answer(根据短文内容, 选择最恰当的答案): ( 12)

As population increased in large cities in the 19th century, building subway lines was a way to move people from one area of a city to another quickly. The first main subway system, the London Underground, started in 1863 using steam trains. Subways developed quickly in London and the system then had more lines. As of 1896, it started to use an electrical system. Today’s subways around the world now work on electricity.

Two of the world’s earliest subways were built in Paris and New York. When the Paris Metro (巴黎地铁) opened on July 19,1900, citizens were proud of the beautifully decorated station entrances that have been a landmark ever since. Although the first New York subway consisted of only 14.6 kilometers of track in 1904, today it is the world’s largest subway system.

Subway trains run in tunnels dug far below the ground. Passengers enter stations and then take lifts or moving stairs to get the trains. The deep stations underground of the London and Moscow subway served as safe bomb shelters (防空洞) during World War II. Today, some cities are building new subways and they dig deep for a different reason. In Athens, Greece, for example, the city planners don’t want to damage the ancient monuments (纪念碑) above the ground.

Today, subways are still popular with passengers. The Moscow Subway is the busiest in the world with 3.2 billion riders a year. Close behind are subways in Tokyo (2.7 billion), Seoul (1.6 billion), and Mexico City (1.3 billion). Systems that got started early in London, New York, and Paris transport millions of riders, and so do subways in Osaka, Hong Kong, and St. Petersburg.

74. The earliest subway was built in________.

   A. 1700s         B. 1800s          C. 1900s          D. 2000s

75. The earliest subway system was powered by_________.

   A. steam         B. gas            C. electricity       D. oil

76. Subways are mainly used as__________.

   A. bomb shelters

   B. tourist attractions

   C. business centers

   D. public transportation

77. How many subways around the world transport millions of riders?

   A. 3              B. 4             C. 5              D.6

78. Citizens in Paris are proud of their Metro because__________.

   A. it is the largest in the world

   B. there is an ancient monument above

   C. it cost a large sum of money

   D. the entrances were beautifully decorated

79. The best title of the passage is_________.

   A. Subways in Europe

   B. Development of Subways

   C. Passengers and Subways

   D. The Earliest Subways

B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage (选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文)(12)

About a year ago, a couple with 3 children moved into the apartment next door to me. I never heard any noise from the children, but the parents were always__80__ them, in a frightening way. We met often in the hallway when we were coming or going. I always spoke, but the only answer I ever got was a hello from the 4-year-old girl.

I usually go out for breakfast and one day when I returned they were just coming from their apartment and the little girl was holding the door open for the others.

I looked up and saw the little girl was still holding the door open, waiting for me.

As a handicapped man, I can’t hurry at anything, but I hurried as much as I could and thanked her. She was smiling like a lovely angle. I was so touched by her small act of kindness.

The next day there was a knock on the door and it was the little girl and her father. She was so proud of her bear and thanked me like I had never been thanked before. The mother and father both thanked me.

Now when we meet in the hall we all speak, and in a friendly manner I might add. As time passes, I don’t hear that shouting as often.__83__, hardly at all.

Last night we had about four inches of snow. I looked out at my car and wonder how I was going to keep my doctor’s appointment.

When I opened the outside door, there was my car with all the snow cleaned. I can’t express how I felt at that moment. The man next door was the only person I knew in the whole building, so when I saw him the next day. I asked him if he was the good man that cleaned my snow. He said__84__. He wanted to but his wife said she wanted to do it.

Today, the largest remaining area of hutongs (胡同) in Beijing is north of Forbidden City. This is where many Chinese and foreign tourists come for a “hutong tour”. We asked several of these tourists to tell us about their o_______.

                          ( Vicky Wang, Hong Kong)

  “It’s really s__87__ ---we’re in the middle of one of the biggest cities in the world, but in

these hutongs it feels as if we are in a village in the countryside. There are lots of trees

everywhere, and all the buildings are only one or two storeys high. In a__88__, there aren’t

many cars in the hutongs, so they are quite quiet---very different from the streets in the

centre of Hong Kong! It’s nice to walk around here and stop or have a drink in one of the little

coffee shops or bars by the lakes.”

                            ( Ted Canada)

   “When you visit the modern parts of Beijing---with the wide roads, tall buildings and

colorful lights---you can i__89__ that you are almost anywhere in the world. It’s the old

hutongs, temples and palaces that are really interesting and beautiful. It’s a s__90__ that so

little of the old city has been kept. I’ve taken lots of photos while I’ve been here. The next

time I come back here, I don’t know how much of ‘old Beijing’ will be left.”

                          (Yu, Guangzhou)

  “I don’t see what’s so interesting about these hutongs. The streets are too narrow--- I

could h__91__ drive my car down them. And most of the houses are old and dirty. China

should have a better c__92__ city that we can all be proud of. Let’s get rid of these hutongs

and change them into modern offices and flats.

Just before midnight on July the 31st, 1997, some skiers returning to their hotel in village of Thredbo heard a sound like the passing of ten trains. The frightened skiers rushed to where the noise had come from and found that part of the hillside above the village had dropped down onto two buildings in which nineteen people had been sleeping. The buildings were now buried (掩埋) under tons of earth and huge rocks.

As soon as the day broke, rescue (援救) workers began digging for people alive. They used hand tools because they were worried that machines might hurt anyone trapped (围困) under the rocks. Rain and snow kept falling and there was a danger that more earth and rocks would come down the mountain.

For two days, rescue workers never stopped digging. On Thursday evening they found the first body.The next day they found two more. They had almost given up hope of finding anyone alive when, at 5.37 a.m. On Saturday morning, a special machine they were using found a small movement.

Immediately someone shouted to tell the workers to be silent. Everyone stopped talking, no one moved. A fireman lay down over to a hole in a large piece of concrete (混凝土) and shouted down. “Can anyone hear me?” “I can hear you,” come the reply.

Worried that their digging could start more rock falling down the mountain, rescue workers began carefully taking away the rocks and dirt on top of the trapped man. By 10 o’clock, a small hole had been made. At 10.10 a.m, rescue workers sent two tubes down through the whole, one carrying warm air and the other a warm drink. Then a microphone was passed through the hole so that they could talk to the man.

For the next seven hours, two workers talked to the trapped man while others slowly and carefully worked to free him. They found out that his name was Stuart Diver and that he and his wife were sleeping the disaster happened. His wife was washed away by the mud and water. For more than two days, Stuart had been trapped between two pieces of concretes, with only 30 cm between his head and the concrete above. Every few hours, icy water had rushed over him and he had had to lift his head out of the water to breathe. By the time he was found, he was cold and hungry and had almost given up any hope of being rescued.

Finally, at 5.17 p.m. on Saturday evening, Stuart was pulled out. Rescue workers all over the hillside began shouting with joy. In thousands of homes, people were also cheering as they watched the rescue on their televisions.
