阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A ★
Before Alaska became part of the U.S., it had been owned by Russia. Trading posts and small settlements were scattered along the coast. The rest of land was left unexplored. The Russians were mainly interest-ed in the wealth of furs from the vast herds of seals they found there. By the mid-1800’s, most of the seal herds had been wiped out, and Russia no longer wanted to keep Alaska. William Seward, Secretary of State for President Johnson, believed the United States should buy Alaska from Russia. President Johnson wasn’t so sure it was a wise way to spend U.S. money, but he agreed to let Seward discuss it with the Russians. Acting quickly, Seward made a deal. On March 30, 1867, he signed an agreement for the U.S. to pay seven million dollars for the land. Many people thought it was a foolish waste of America’s money. They called the deal “Seward’s folly”. Then gold was discovered in Alaska and public opinion changed quickly.
Seward did not live to see the true value of Alaska. He died in 1872, five years after making the purchase (购买). Each year, Alaska’s natural resources(资源) have brought in many times the $7,000,000 paid for it. Natural gas, coal, oil, lumber, seafood and other minerals, besides the gold first found, have made it a valuable addition to the United States. In 1959, Alaska be-came the 49th state of the United States.
56. The Russians wanted to sell Alaska because ______. A. they thought it wasn’t a good place B. they thought it didn’t belong to Russia C. they couldn’t find enough seals there
D. they wanted to earn more money from the U.S.
57. When Seward signed the agreement, many people thought ______. A. it was a successful deal B. it had its true value C. he wasted U.S. money D. he was clever
58. Which of the following things was found first in Alaska? A. Gas. B. Coal. C. Oil. D. Gold. 59. Before 1959, the United States had ______. A. 37 states B. 48 states C. 49 states D. 50 states

B ★★
My wife passed away seven and a half years ago, and I went through a huge depression (消沉), the worst time in my life. I even wanted to end my life. I continued to work as a small-town doctor at my medical clinic in Kilauea, Hawaii. My kids had gone to live on the mainland, and I was alone. On a family trip, we turned on the TV and saw the second plane crash into the World Trade Center. I said to my kids, “I’m going to Afghanistan.” International Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in some provinces where people had no health care. Eventually, the clinics were serving 27,000 patients a month. I had such a sense of accomplishment, a sense of purpose. My depression went completely away. I go wherever disasters strike: Indonesia after the tsunami, Pakistan after the earthquake. I was just in Kenya. After their presidential election, at least a thou-sand people were killed and hundreds of thousands were forced out. We set up mobile clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees (难民). Measles broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire. Water and medical equipment were also problems. When my wife passed away, I thought my life was done. But really, it was just getting started. At the end of her life, my wife fell into a coma (昏迷). I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would visit, the exciting adventures we would have. I think about this moment many times during my “adventures”. I did not know then how prophetic (先知的) those words would be. She is with me still. 61. The first country where the author provided people with medical care is ______. A. Indonesia B. Pakistan C. Kenya D. Afghanistan

Most children now chat daily either online or through their mobile phones. They are connecting to a huge number of other children all over the world. Some are shy “in real life” but are confident to communicate with others online; others find support from people of their own age on relationship issues, or problems at home. Sometimes the online world, just like the real world, can introduce problems, such as bullying or arguments. Going online is great fun, but there are also a few people who use the Internet for offensive (冒犯性的) or illegal aims. Children must be made aware of both the good things and the dangers. To keep children safe your management must cover the family computer. Just as you decide which TV pro-grams are suitable, you need to do the same for the websites and chat rooms your children visit. Remind your children that online friends are still strangers. Re-minding them of the risks will keep them alert (警惕). Computer studies are part of schoolwork now, so it’s likely that your children may know more than you do. We get left behind when it comes to the latest gad-gets and the interactive areas of websites, like chat rooms and message boards, which are especially strange. The language of chat is strange to many parents, too. Chatters love to use abbreviations (缩写) such as: atb — all the best, bbfn — bye bye for now, cul8er — see you later, gr8 — great, Idk — I don’t know, imbl — it must be love, kit — keep in touch, paw — parents are watching, lol — laugh out loud, xlnt — excellent! It seems like another language, and it is! 66. The passage is meant for ______. A. children B. parents C. teachers D. net bar owners
67. Which of the following will the author probably agree with? A. The Internet is no good for children. B. The chat language is strange to adults. C. Children shouldn’t chat so much online. D. The Internet is a good place for children.
68. The purpose of writing this passage is to advise ______. A. people not to use the net language in real life B. children not to meet online friends freely C. teachers to have students study on computers
D. parents to protect their children from online dangers
69. In order to keep children safe online, you’d better ______. A. choose suitable websites and chat rooms for them B. teach them to use correct net words C. surf the Internet together with them D. forbid them to use the Internet
70. If you stand beside him when your son is chatting about something secret online, he may use ______.
A. bbfn B. lol C. paw D. cul8er
