reach anyone to pick me up，so I decided to take a bus.Not knowing the routes，I figured Id just head east.A bus pulled up，and I asked the driver how far she was going.“Four more lights，”she said.There was another bus I could take from there.This clearly was going to be a long night.She dropped me off at the end of her route and told me which bus to look for.After waiting 30 minutes，I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home.Then a bus pulled up.There was no lighted number above its windshield(挡风玻璃)It was out of service.But the door opened，and I was surprised to find that it was the same driver.“I just cant leave you here，” she said.“This isnt the nicest place.Ill give you a ride home.”“Youll drive me home in the bus？”I asked，puzzled.“No，Ill take you in my car，”she said.“Its a long way，”I protested.“Come on，”she said.“I have nothing else to do.”As we drove from the station in her car，she began telling me a story.A few days earlier，her brother had run out of gas.A good Samaritan picked him up，took him to a service station and then back to his car.“Im just passing the favor along，”she said.When I offered her money as a thankyou，she wouldnt hear of it.“That wouldnt make it a favor，”she said.“Just do something nice for somebody.Pass it along.”36Why did the writer say that he would have a long night?AHe wondered how long he had to wait for the next bus.BNo driver would give him a ride.CHe didnt know the routes.DHe perhaps would have to take a taxi.37Why did the writer change his mind after waiting for 30 minutes at the end of the route?ANo bus would come at the time.BA taxi ride would be more comfortable.CHe became impatient and a bit worried.DHe knew the driver would never return.38The bus driver drove the writer home later because _.Ashe happened to go in the same directionBshe wanted to do something good for other peopleCher brother told her to do soDshe wanted to earn more money39The bus driver hoped that the writer _.Awould do as she didBwould keep her in memoryCwould give the money to othersDwould do her a favorBAudrey Hepburn won an Academy Award as Best Actress for her first major American movie，Roman Holiday，which was released(发行)in 1953.But she is remembered as much for her_aid_work as for her acting.Born in Belgium in 1929，Audreys father was British and her mother was Dutch.Audrey was sent to live at a British school for part of her childhood.During World War ，she lived and studied in the Netherlands.Her mother thought it would be safe from German attacks.Audrey studied dance as a teenager and during college when she returned to London after the war.But she realised she wasnt going to be a ballerina(芭蕾舞女演员)So she began taking acting parts in stage shows.Later she began to get small parts in movies.But it was Audrey Hepburns move to America that brought her true fame.In 1951 she played the character“Gigi”in the Broadway play of the same name to great critical(关键的，重要的)praise.Two years later，Roman Holiday made her a star at the age of 24.Audrey made more than 25 movies.Among her most popular roles was Holly Golightly in Breakfast at Tiffanys in 1961.Three years later she played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.She was married two times and had one son by each husband.In 1989，the UN Childrens Fund named Audrey a goodwill ambassador(亲善大使，特使)She travelled all over the world in support of UNICEF projects.The UN agency said she was a tireless worker.She often gave 15 interviews a day to gain money and support for UNICEF projects.Audrey Hepburn often said her loyalty to UNICEF was the result of her experiences as a child during World War .She said she knew what it was like to be starving and to be saved by international aid.She was a goodwill ambassador until her death in 1993 from colon cancer(结肠癌)40In Paragraph 1，“her aid work”means_.Awinning an Academy Award as Best ActressBtaking acting parts in stage showsCmaking moviesDacting as a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF41The reason why Audrey lived and studied in the Netherlands was that_.Ashe wanted to be a ballerinaBher parents were from BritainCthe education there was excellentDit was safe there42We can infer from the passage that _.AAudreys parents lived in Germany during World War BAudrey lived in America in the 1950sCAudrey was made to give up dancingDthe character“Gigi”in the Broadway play was her most popular role43_is NOT mentioned in the passage about Audrey Hepburn.AMarriage BIdentityCContribution DReligionCBullies(欺凌弱小者)often bully students who are lonely.They do it over and over，but the students usually dont tell anybody they are being bullied because they are afraid of the bullies.These students dont know how to stop the bullies and are very unhappy.Some dont see a solution and dont want to be bullied any more，so they decide to commit suicide(自杀)On the Internet，there are many stories about bullying victims who killed themselves.Here are three we read about online.A 14yearold girl in Canada was bullied all the time by three girls in her class.The girls even called her on the telephone to bully her.She was afraid to stand_up_to them and never told anyone about the situation.She was miserable and didnt want to be bullied again，so she killed herself.A 14yearold boy in Canada was also bullied a lot.He was miserable，but he did not talk to anyone either.Finally，he wrote a note to his parents.He told them that he was scared of the bullies and didnt know what to do.Then he jumped off a bridge.In England，a 13yearold girl was bullied because she was very tall.She was scared of the bullies，but she also never told anybody what the bullies was doing.She was so unhappy that she committed suicide.These young students were lonely and unhappy.They did not know how to stop the bullies，so they killed themselves.We need to notice when students are victims(受害者)and desperate.Then we can help them before they decide to commit suicide.44The reason why victims keep silent about bullying is that_.Athey dont want to take that seriouslyBthey are too shy to say that to othersCbullies may have ordered them not to tell others about thatDthey want to solve the problems by themselves45The underlined phrase“stand up to”in Paragraph 4 refers to_.Aface bravely BbeatCbully Dmet46What should those who are bullied do in order to stop being bullied again?AThey should have the bullies beaten by others.BThey should try their best to fight against them.CThey should tell others about the matter and ask them for help.DThey should try to avoid meeting them again.DWhen you are deciding which wheels are right for you，there are quite a few choices.Here are some tips that may be helpful in choosing a wheel.Steel wheelsoffered mostly for offroad or as a low cost alternative to aluminum(铝)Steel wheels can be improved by making small changes with a spray can or brush if the need ever arises.A chromed steel wheel is likely to rust and is likely to need repair，especially in areas that use salt on the roads in the winter.They are heavier than aluminum wheels，thus，add some additional stress to suspension and braking(刹车)parts.Another downfall of steel wheels is that they are handbuilt wheels and have lower ability of bearing in regard to run in，sometimes causing shaking problems on the street.ALWAYS dry your wheels off after going through a car wash.The chemicals used in car washes these days can leave dirty spots that are difficult，if not impossible，to get rid of.ALWAYS wash the road salt off your wheels as soon as possible.Salt can eat into the last part of a wheel and leave pits and stains that cannot be fixed.ALWAYS check the directions on a cleaner before you use it on your wheels or tyres.Some tyre cleaners will forever discolour wheels and some wheel cleaners contain acids that will eat certain types of wheels.47The passage mainly tells us about_.Ahow to repair and fix wheelsBhow to buy and wash wheelsChow to introduce and use wheelsDhow to choose and protect wheels48If you are a driver，you should better buy_.Asteel wheels Baluminum wheelsCiron wheels Dplastic wheels49If a driver has bought steel wheels，_.Abraking parts of the wheel are not quickBthe wheels must leave a lot of dirty marksCsometimes the wheels will cause shaking on roadsDhe can save a lot of money in repairing his car50According to the passage，a driver should_.Apay special attention to his cars wheelsBmake less use of salt to protect and repair his cars wheelsClet acids eat certain types of wheelsDoften wash his car and keep it away from danger.阅读填句(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)Dear Boris，51After I had spent a week with my English family, I slowly began to understand their English a little better.52Students in my group are from different cities of Britain and their dialects are different too! Some of their accents are quite strong and they also have their own words and expressions.53Before I came to England I had thought that fish and chips were eaten every day.Thats quite wrong! I get rather annoyed now when I hear all the foolish words about typical English food.I had expected to see “London fog”. Do you remember our texts about it? We had no idea that most of this “thick fog” disappeared many years ago when people stopped using coal in their homes. But the idea to speak about weather was very helpful.54On the other hand, habits are different. People tell me what is typical British here in London is not always typical in Wales or Scotland.55But what is ordinary for all British is that they follow traditions(传统). Probably Britain has more living signs of its past than many other countries. And people have always been proud of having ancient(古老的) buildings in capitals, big cities and the countryside.I will tell you more about Britain in my other letters.Love from Britain.AThe weather in London is really changeable.BI have difficulty in understanding my classmates.CThanks for your nice letter.DThe family I live with are friendly.EIts very different from what I learned at school.FLocal habits and traditions are not the same as what we knew.GBut its not the language thats different and surprising.短文改错(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)As winter holiday are coming soon, my classmates are trying very hard to get train tickets to go to home.
