阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
In Great Britain the system of the coast guard is very different. There are a small number of men, called lifeboatmen, who go out to help ships in trouble. These brave men often risk their lives. But they receive no money of their work. They live in small towns on the coast, and most have other jobs. The special lifeboats that they need are provided by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (R. N. L. I), a private group which depends completely on money from private people. The R.N.L.I. does not accept any money from the government. As a result, it cannot always buy the best and most modern lifeboats. For example, about ten years ago, British researchers began to criticize the lifeboats which were in use at that time. According to their studies, the lifeboats never sank, but they turned over in certain sea conditions and stayed upside down in the water. However, there was a new kind of lifeboat that did not turn over. The R.N. L. I began to buy this safer kind of boat, but it could buy one or two every year.
Some years ago, the southwestern coast of England, a lifeboat station that did not have the new type of lifeboat received a radio call from a small ship that was sinking. The call came in the middle of the worst storm in forty years. The sea was very rough, but the lifeboat went out to try
to save the men on the SINKING ship. Two hours later, their radio stopped, and nothing more was heard from them. One day later a helicopter found the lifeboat. It was lying upside down in the sea. Probably a large wave hit it and turned it over. There were no survivors.
The news of the disaster shocked the people of Great Britain. A number of people began to criticize the lifeboat system. In their opinion, the US system was better. “We cannot send brave men out in boats which aren’t safe,” they said, “They need the best boats which money can buy. The government must control the lifeboat system.” Today, however, the system remains the same. 56. What was discussed preceding（在。。。之前） this passage? A. The lifeboat system in another country. B. The life of the lifeboatmen in Great Britain. C. The special lifeboats used by the British people.
D. The news of the disaster which shocked the British people.
57. Which of the following is true of the lifeboat system in Great Britain?
A. It is controlled by the government. B. It has a plentiful supply of money. C. It needs better lifeboats. D. Everyone is satisfied with it. 58. What happened in the storm some years ago? A. A lifeboat saved the people on a small ship.
B. A lifeboat could not go out because the sea was rough. C. A lifeboat sank, but some of the men survived. D. A lifeboat turned over, and all the lifeboatmen died. 59. The purpose of the passage is _______________________. A. to compare the US lifeboat system with the British system
B. to prove that the British lifeboatmen are really brave
C. to show the lifeboatmen’s loyalty（忠诚） to the British government D. to explain the situation of the lifeboat system in Great Britain 60. The word “sinking” means ______________________.
A. turning upside down B. going down to the bottom C. floating on the surface D. getting out of sight

Years ago while lying in my hammock and drinking JD from the bottle, I noticed my dog dragging something under the fence. Upon inspection, to my disappointment, I realized it was the next door neighbor’s 10-year-old daughter’s rabbit. For years I had watched her come home from school and head straight out to its cage, free it and play with it in the yard. I knew that day would be no different and fearing for our dog, I had to think fast.
The rabbit was quite dirty, as if it had put up quite a struggle, so I washed it, combed it with the dog brush and blew it dry with the leaf blower. Upon finishing its grooming I jumped the fence and replaced back in its cage hoping its death would be written off as “ natural causes”.
Back to the hammock and JD. within the hour the neighbor’s Volvo pulled in as usual and out popped the little girl, and as usual she headed straight for the cage. Only this time she stopped
3
about six feet away and screamed: “D---A---D---D--Y!!!”
Her father, panic stricken, stood looking at the cage. Being the good neighbor that I am, I rushed to fence and asked if there was anything I could do.
Her father less than calmly shouted, “What kind of sick individual would dig up a little girl’s rabbit and put back in its cage?”
61. The girl was shocked because _________________________. A. the rabbit was killed by someone.
B. the rabbit was too clean.
C. the dead rabbit was cleaned and put back into the cage. D. the rabbit was asleep in the cage.
62. That day the girl ran to the cage _________________. A. because her rabbit was there.
B. because she had a habit of going there to see her rabbit. C. because she wanted to see her rabbit again. D. because the rabbit was dead.
63. We can infer that the rabbit ________________. A. was alive before the writer saw his dog dragging it. B. was already dead before the writer saw his dog dragging it. C. was in the cage playing with the dog.
D. was at the fence seeking out for food before it was killed by the dog. 64. The word “Volvo” in the sentence “the neighbor’s Volvo pulled in….” probably refers to
______________.
A. the neighbor’s car B. a pet the neighbor kept C. the girl’s friend D. the neighbor’s house 65. According to the story, the writer _____________________________. A. was helpful to his neighbor. B. did a smart thing C. was honest D. made a mistake

A new computer treatment is being used to deal with obesity(肥胖) in children.Connected to a small dining set, consisting of scales and a plate, a mini computer teaches children how to eat and reminds them when to stop.
“In very fat people, hunger signals from the stomach to the brain stop functioning. But the new computer system teaches the children how to receive these messages again,” says Dr. Julian Hamilton-Shield, the Bristol University senior lecturer leading the treatment trials.
The computer, called a Mandometer, records and stores the weight loss from the plate when children eat. As the food is leaving the plate, a curve(曲线) is produced on the computer screen suggesting whether the child is eating too quickly.
“Children with weight problems often eat too quickly. We want them to eat steadily and
slowly and the system teaches them to slow down. It’s a bit like retraining,” says Hamilton-Shield.
Obesity now represents one of the major threats to the future health of children. About one in five boys and one in four girls aged two to fifteen in England are overweight. But so far no treatments have proven effective in treating children.
The Mandometer was developed in Sweden, but at present is experiencing further development at the University of Bristol, with $224,400 in funds from BUPA—a global health and care organization. The system could be on the market in two years time. At first, it would be managed by medical clinics.
66. The text is mainly written to explain____________.
A. how a new computer treatment dealing with obesity works B. why child obesity becomes a topic of people C. how to lose weight with the help of computers
D. why a computer is effective in dealing with child obesity 67. Obesity threats the health of children, which______________.
A. people have not cared about
B. is nothing compared with other diseases C. is very serious
D. has led to many deaths
68. What can we learn from the text?
A. The Mandometer will be put into market once it proves effective.
B. The Mandometer is cheap enough for every family to afford. C. The Mandometer is still not perfect.
D. Slow eating is sure to make people lose weight. D
Have you ever seen any students whose trousers hang so low you can see their underwear (内裤)? What do you think of that? Fashionable? Some of today's teenagers are big fans of such a look. But recently this trend has been at the centre of an argument in Italian middle schools. The headmaster of a school in central Italy has asked students to stop wearing low-rise jeans (低腰牛仔裤) that expose underwear and parts of the body. His request came after a class trip, when he saw one boy's baggy trousers slide (滑) to his feet. He pointed out that this way of dressing is not suitable for school.
But in Italy, a nation that takes fashion very seriously, the suggestion caused a debate among parents, teachers and students. The issue is whether the head teacher's request will limit students' freedom — or whether dress in Italian schools is too casual (随意的).
A parents' group praised the move in favour of good taste, while others advised schools to stop worrying about fashion and fix up old school buildings.
\极端) of fashion like this are not right in school.\

students also stop wearing such trousers.
Most students have simply ignored (忽略) the request. Ludovica Gaudio, 14, wore extremely low trousers exposing orange underwear in class. It was cold, so she wore a matching orange scarf (围巾).
Another 14-year-old said she should probably respect the request, simply for practical reasons. \when dressed like that, it's quite cold and I am afraid my stomach will ache.\69. What led to the argument in Italian middle schools? A. Students' craze for fashions.
B. Clothes that are too exposing.
C. Students ignoring dress codes (着装规则).
D. Students' underwear.
70. Which of the following supports the headmaster's request? A. Fashion should be taken seriously.
B. Fashion should not be followed in school.
C. Students should have their freedom in choosing what they wear. D. Students should be encouraged to have good taste in clothes. 71. The argument against the headmaster's request is that ______.
A. schools should pay attention to things more important than students' clothes B. fashion should not be followed in school C. dress in Italian schools is too casual
D. low-rise jeans can do harm to youngster's health. E
