1.Passage FourOne evening Mr. Green was driving home along a lonely country road. He had £ 100.00 in his pock et. At the loneliest part of the road, a man asked for a lift (搭车). Mr. Green told him to get into the car and continued his driving. When he talked to the man and learned that the man had been in prison for robbery and had broken out of prison two days before, Mr. Green was very worried.Suddenly he saw a police-car and had a bright idea. He just reached a small town where the speed limit (限制速度) was 30 miles an hour. But he drove the car as fast as it could go. He looked back and saw that the police-car had begun to chase (追) him. After a mile or so the police-car overtook (赶上) him and ordered him to stop. A policeman got out and came to Mr. Green's car. Mr. Green hoped that he could tell the policeman about the escaped robber, but he felt the man had put a gun against his back. The policeman took out his notebook and pencil, saying he wanted Mr. Green's name and address. Mr. Green asked to be taken to the police station, but the policeman said, "No, you will have to appear at the police station later." Mr. Green had to do as the policeman told him. The policeman wrote his name and address down, put his notebook and pencil back in his pocket and gave Mr. Green a talk about dangerous driving. Then Mr. Green started up his car again and drove on.Just as he reached the outskirts (郊区) of London, the passenger said, "! want to get off here." Mr. Green stopped the car, the man got out and said, "Thanks for the lift. You've been good to me. This is the least I can do in return (报答)." And he handed Mr. Green the policeman's notebook, which he stole while the policeman was talking to Mr. Green.46. The man asking for a lift was ______.A. a robber who robs driversB. a policeman who had worked in prisonC. a prisoner who had escaped from prisonD. a stranger with £ 100.00 in his pocket

2.Ⅳ. Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions: There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneThere was a nasty (肮脏的,卑鄙的) accident in our town not long ago, and I saw it happen. I was standing near a road which was under repair, not doing anything special—just watching the men at work. It was not far from the new motorway (高速公路) that runs past the town. It was an old road that used to be very busy—and dangerous before the motorway was built. Today, most cars use the new "superhighway" and the old road is pretty quiet, although cars do often come off the motorway into the town faster than they should.Anyway, the men were repairing part of the road and there were signs up for at least 200 meters, telling everybody that the road was narrower than usual. Most of the drivers in both directions saw the signs and slowed down.Then three cars came along close together, the third one moving at a very high speed. The first one pas sed the workmen and wanted to turn left. Meanwhile the third car came flying past the second one. The sec and car stopped. I think the driver knew something was going to happen. It did. The third car had no chance of stopping. Its driver braked (刹车) and pulled over to miss the first car and went right off the road.There were four people in that car: a man, two women and a child. The child was a boy of nine. I read later that they were going shopping—just shopping, nothing more important than that. The driver was badly hurt. The little bay was hurt too. Both the women were killed immediately. One of them was the driver's wife and the other was the mother of the little boy. They never got to the shops.36. The old road ______.A. was very busy though there was a new motorwayB. was never very busyC. was always very busy and dangerousD. was very busy and dangerous before the construction of the new motorway

    Pushing Drunk Boss's Car Home

    Ten workers in China pushed their boss's car three miles home after' an office party because they were all too drunk to drive. The group was enjoying a meal at a restaurant in downtown Changchun, Jilin Province (northeast China). When the party was over, Boss Zhang Fei found that he was too drunk to drive. Then suddenly they realized nobody had stayed sober enough to drive his car.

    Drink-driving was listed as a dangerous offence in China in 2014, esp. when the driver is drunk. Those who break the law will have their driving license revoked, face a heavy fine and may be put in jail. Zhang did not want to leave his car downtown and it was too late to call out another driver to drive the car for him. Someone then suggested they push the car home, and said that the exercise would do them all good. Thus, all ten quickly agreed and set off with Zhang at the wheel. All ten workers pushed their boss's car home through the city streets, laughing and singing during the 45-minute journey. Passers-by were shocked to see the group.

    Traffic officers said that as long as the car's engine was not running, it would not be classed as drink-driving under the law. However, it is still very dangerous for so many people to push the car along the road, as it may cause traffic accidents.

    21. workers in China pushed their boss's car home in() minutes.

    B. 3, 8

    C. 10, 45

    Practice 6  It’s summer. In the United States, it’s the season of swimming pools, barbeques (户外烤肉), camping and road trips.  Road trip vacations where the car journey is part of the fun are especially popular with college students, who like to explore the country on wheels. These budget trips are ideal for students who often have plenty of free time but little money.  Driving trips first became popular in the 1920s. Newly paved roads and improved cars made it possible to travel longer distances. Motels (汽车旅馆)started appearing outside cities.  By the 1950s, car ownership became the norm. Construction of the US interstate (州际的) highway system began in 1956 and motel and restaurant chains popped up (突然出现) everywhere making long distance trips easier.  Today, the US has the highest car ownership rate in the world. Only 8 percent of American homes have no car, according to the most recent US census. Though many college students don’t own a car, most have access to one.  Hawkins’ most memorable road trip took place over spring break. He and two friends drove from New York to New Orleans to volunteer, helping rebuild the city after Hurricane (风暴) Katrina hit it last July. They crossed the country in two days and slept in their car in church parking lots.  Roberts’ road trip to Canada last winter was even more eventful. Upon arriving in Montreal, they were lost in a blizzard and shivering in the -25° cold. To find their hotel, they turned on a laptop (笔记本电脑) and drove around in circles until they found a spot with wireless Internet coverage.  “I know we should have planned better, but we’re young. Now, when I see those guys I always say: ‘Remember when we were lost in the snow storm!’ I’ll never forget that.”

    现在是夏季。在美国,这是一个游泳、烧烤、野营以及公路旅行的季节。
    汽车旅行是公路旅行的乐趣之一。公路旅行在大学生当中特别流行,因为他们喜欢驾车探险。这种开销较小的旅行对于那些时间充足但经费不足的学生来说非常可取。
    驾车旅行开始流行于20世纪20年代。新铺的公路与改善的汽车使驾车长途旅行变得可能。汽车旅馆也开始出现在城市以外的地方。
    至20世纪50年代,拥有汽车变得很正常。长途旅行因为1956年美国开始建设州际高速公路系统和汽车旅馆、餐馆在各处的兴起而变得更加简单。
    现在,美国的汽车持有率世界最高。根据美国最新统计,只有8%的美国家庭没有汽车。虽然许多大学生没有汽车,但是大多数都有汽车使用权。
    霍金斯最难忘的公路旅行发生在春假期间。他和两个伙伴开车从纽约到新奥尔良做志愿者服务,去帮助他们重建去年7月被卡特里娜飓风毁坏的家园。他们在两天之内横穿美国,困了就睡在停在教会停车场的汽车里。
    去年冬天,罗伯茨去加拿大的公路旅行更加多事。快要到达蒙特利尔时,他们在一场暴风雪中迷了路,在零下25℃的严寒里发抖。为了找到旅馆,他们打开电脑不停地开车转圈,直到找到了一个无线网络覆盖的地方。
    “我知道我们应该准备得更充分一些。但是我们太年轻了。当我看到那些朋友时,我总是说:‘记住我们在暴风雪中走失的时候!’我永远也不会忘记。”
