It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. As I searched the name, I found that there were two famous people having the same name who looked pletely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts（花生）, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: let the coin decide. I flipped(掷) a coin and Ah! Tails (背面)! My report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver.Weeks later, I stood in front of the classroom and proudly read my homework. But things started to get strange. I looked around the room, only to find my classmates with big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes and my stone-faced teacher. I was pletely lost. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?”Oh well, I dropped the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American War of Independence.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that my teacher meant that George Washington?Of course, my subject result was awful. Sad but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to the headmaster Miss Lancelot, but she said firmly(坚决地): No re-dos; no new score. I felt that it was not fair, and I believed I should have a second chance. So I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. Ten months later, I sat in the headmasters office again, but this time a pletely different conversation. I smiled and flashed back to the terrible moment at the beginning of the year when the headmaster told me I was good enough to skip(跳过) the 6th grade and started the 7th grade next term. 61._ helped me decide what my report would be about. A. My classmates B. A coin C. My grandpa D. The Internet 62. I read my homework proudly because _. A. I believed my homework was excellent B. I was good at my lessons C. my classmates wore big smiles on their faces D. my grandfather was always right 63.

A. the headmaster wasnt a good person at all B. the writers classmates were cleverer than him C. the writer knew little about American history D. the writers grandpa was a very wise man 65. Which of the following can best describe the writer?A. Silly and lazy.B. Clever but unlucky. C.Proud and confident.D. Brave and hard-working.CYou know how much your telephone has changed over the past 10 years? Your car will change even more than that in the next 10 years.One of the biggest changes is that cars will drive themselves. Some day you may not need to drive a car. You will just tell the car where you want to go and it will drive itself. GoogleThe American pany Google has been working on a self-driving automobile for years. These cars are already on the roads in the United States, mainly in California.Google cars are truly self-driving. These cars have no steering wheels(方向盘) or pedals(刹车踏板).Last week, police ordered one of Googles cars to stop for driving too slowly on a public road. The car was not against any law, so no one was punished. But police did speak to the operators of the vehicle(车辆).According to Google, its self-driving cars have been driven nearly 2 million kilometers. That is equal to the distance the average person drives in 90 years.So far, no Google self-driving car has gotten a traffic ticket. Some of them have been in accidents when other cars hit them.TeslaAnother American pany, Tesla, added an “Autopilot(自动驾驶仪)” feature to its cars last month. Tesla put the feature, a puter software program, in cars that were built after September xx.With the Autopilot turned on, the vehicle drives itself. The car will speed up, slow down, brake and steer by itself.You can take over driving any time by turning the steering wheel or touching a pedal. Your car will slow down if the vehicle in front of you gets closer. It will turn at bends and change lanes if you use the turn signal.Tesla Autopilot takes over driving at speeds over 29 kilometers per hour when you press a button twice. Autopilot is made for cross-country driving. It keeps you in the lane and helps you avoid hitting other cars.Other Self-Driving Cars and BusesOther panies such as Mercedes-Benz, Audi, BMW, Volvo and Toyota are working on self-driving cars. Another pany called BestMile is also working on self-driving buses in Switzerland. The buses can hold up to nine people and will be tested for two years.66.

About 22,000 kilometres.C. About 90 million kilometres.D. About 180 kilometres.68. How many panies are working on self-driving vehicles in all according the passage?A. Two. B. Five. C. Eight.D. Seven.69. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Google cars have pedals.B. Google cars hit some other cars.C. All car panies in the world are working on self-driving cars.D. There is an “Autopilot” in Tesla self-driving cars after September xx.70. Which of the following can be the best tittle of the passage?A. Whats your favourite car? B. Will your next car drive itself?C. Whats the best car?D. Do you need a self-driving car?第二部分 非选择题(65分)五、词汇运用 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)(A) 根据句意和汉语注释，写出单词的正确形式。71.

Languages such as French and Spanish each has an official(官方的) organization that tells you whats correct. But there is nothing like that in English. So what can we do?There is, of course, Standard English. This is the kind of English you read in newspapers or in formal letters. It is also the English you learn at school or in textbooks.However, Standard English is not official English. And unbelievably, linguists（语言学家） think Standard English is on the same level as all other types of English such as Cockney English, Yorkshire English, South African English, Australian English, Singaporean English And according to linguists, there is no such thing as Standard Spoken English.English is changing all the time. Every year, new words appear and others disappear. Words change too. For example, for many years, the Latin word “agendum” was the accepted singular form and “agenda” was the plural form. However, these days, very few people use the Latin-sounding“agendum”, with “agenda” being the accepted singular form, and “agendas” the plural.Newspapers each has their own
