Radcliffe, who failed to plete the Olympic marathon and the 10,000m, said: Athens made me a stronger person and it made me care less about criticism. In the past I wanted to please everyone, but now I an going to listen even more to the people around me. She didnt care about criticism made at the weekend by Liz McColgan, who felt Radcliffe should have rested and let her body recover after her failure in Athens. Liz is someone I look up to but she hasnt spoken to me since last year and if she really eared for me, Im sure she would have contacted (联系) me. Instead Radcliffe won the New York City marathon just 11 weeks after Athens. In New York I wasnt in my best state but I did know I was good enough to win the race. Radcliffe insisted her only goal in Sundays race would be winning a third title and not chasing world records. However, Radcliffe has not ruled out(排除) in the future chasing her final world record time and questioned sayings that marathon runners have the ability in their career to produce only four or five world-class times. I dont think that - although I cant put a number on it, said. Radcliffe. That changes from person to person. Radcliffe is sure she can better her winning London xx performance at some point in the future. Following a successful three-month training period in the United States, the 31-year-old will chase a third title on Sunday after her first victory in 2O02 and again 12 months later.Radcliffe clocked a time of 2:18:56 in her first 42.2-kdnmetre race three years ago. Afterwards she set a mixed course mark of 2:17:18 five months later In Chicago before lowering that to a time of 2:15:25 in the xx London event.21. Radcliffes failure in Athens made her _ A. develop respect for Liz B. face criticism calmly C. rest for five months D. love people around her more 22. By saying I cant put a number on it, Radcliffe means shes not sure _ . A. if she has the ability to set a new world record B. if she can win another race though she has won many tunes C. how many times a marathon runner can set the world record D. if she has the ability to produce four or five world-class times 23. What can we learn from Radcliffes story? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Well begun is half done. C. A friend in need is a fried indeed. D. Where there is a will there is a way. BThe Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. One hundred thousand people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives.The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the Kings baker in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window in the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.By eight oclock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Pauls and the Guildhall among them.Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire. People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat.The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out.After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect, wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow; but he did build more than fifty churches, among them new St Pauls.The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past.24.The underlined word family in the second paragraph means. A. home B. children C. wife and husbandD. wife and children25.Why did the writer cite(引用) Samuel Pepys? A. To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire. B. Because Pepys also wrote about the fire. C. To show that poor people suffered most. D. Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire.26. How was the fire put out according to the text? A. The king and his soldiers came to help. B. All the wooden houses in the city were destroyed. C. People managed to get enough water from the river. D. Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down.27. Which of the following were reasons for the rapid spread of the big fire? (a)There was a strong wind. (b)The streets were very narrow. (c)Many houses were made of wood. (d)There was not enough water in the city. (e)People did not discover the fire earlier. A.(a)and(b) B.(a),(b)and(c) C.(a),(b),(c)and(d) D.(a),(b),(c)(d)and(e) C When Babbage was working at Cambridge, a new idea occurred to him. He wanted to construct acalculating machine to work out the solutions to maths problems not only with correctness butalso with a speed beyond the power of any human mind. His machine could solve problems involving long rows of figures in one continuous operation . In 1822 Babbage exhibited his invention and won a prize from the government. After that, he immediately started to work on a larger machine designed to solve more difficult problems. Although he received some money left by his father, the money was not enough to support his design. He wrote to the government about his plan and was given 2500 to start with, a sum worth much more in those days than it is now. Babbage continued his work in London for four years. Then his health broke down, and he had to take a long holiday abroad. When he returned to London in 1828, he was at the end of his resources. Many bills remained unpaid. His chief assistant and co-workers quarreled with him and left with many expensive tools. For one year no work was done. During this period, Babbage, whose mind was always active, suddenlythought of a pletely new idea for the machine. He rushed to meet the government officials to explain hisnew idea. But this time, they were unwilling to help him. For eight years, they refused to say whether theywanted the machine or not, and their final answer was No. From 1828 to 1839, Babbage held the position of professor at Cambridge very successfully. But his greatest work was the unfinished calculating machine which stood covered in dust in his house. It was thebeginning of the modern puter. 28. The machine Babbage designed would solve difficult maths problems _. A. in one operation without any mistakesB. in more than one operation without any mistakesC. in more than one operation with slight mistakesD. in one operation with few mistakes29. Babbage failed to continue his research work in 1828 mainly because _. A. he was in poor health B. his co-workers argued with him C. he almost ran out of money D. he spent all his money on his bills 30. Babbage explained his new idea to the government officials, expecting that _. A. they would agree to his plan B. they would support him with money C. they would pay for his new idea D. they would exhibit his new design 31. From the passage, we can infer that _. A. Babbage failed to be a famous scientist at CambridgeB. Babbage always had new ideas but gave them up easilyC. Babbage always needed support from the government officialsD. Babbage was the first designer of the modern puterDIf you ask people to name the one person who had the greatest effect on the English language, you will get answers like “Shakespeare,” “Samuel Johnson, ” and “Webster, ” but none of these men had any effect at all pared to a man who didnt even speak EnglishWilliam the Conqueror.Before 1066, in the land we now call Great Britain lived peoples belonging to two major language groups. In the west-central region lived the Welsh, who spoke a Celtic language, and in the north lived the Scots, whose language, though not the same as Welsh, was also Celtic. In the rest of the country lived the Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos, Saxons, and other Germanic and Nordic peoples, who spoke what we now call Anglo-Saxon (or Old English), a Germanic language. If this state of affairs had lased, English today would be close to German.But this state of affairs did not last. In 1066 the Normans led by William defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England. For about a century, French became the official language of English while Old English became the language of peasants. As a result, English words of politics and the law e from French rather than German. In some cases, modern English even shows a distinction (区别) between upper-class French and lower-class Anglo-Saxon in its words. We even have different words for some foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in the fields or at home ready to be cooked, which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants were doing the farming, while the upper-class Normans were doing most of the eating.When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more “foreign” than France because the German they wee on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than French does. Few realize that the English language is actually Germanic in its beginning and that the French influences are all the result of one mans ambition.32. The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before 1066 were_.A. Welsh and Scottish B. Celtic and Old EnglishC. Nordic and Germanic D. Anglo-Saxon and Germanic33. Which of the following groups of words are, by inference, rooted in French?A. president, lawyer, beef B. president, bread, waterC. bread, field, sheep D. folk, field, cow34. Why does France appear less foreign than Germany to Americans on their first visit to Europe?A. Most advertisements in France appear in English.B. They know little of the history of the English language.C. Many French words are similar to English ones.D. They know French better than German.35. What is the subject discussed in the text?A. The history of Great Britain. B. The similarity between English and French.C. The rule of England by William the Conqueror.D. The French influences on the English language.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 36 Reading is very important to help you learn English.
