The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, “Im sorry, I cant sell you a ticket. Our puter is down.”“If your puter is down, just write me out a ticket.”“I cant write you out a ticket. The puter is the only one allowed to do so.”I noticed every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I looked down on the puter and asked her, “What do all you people do?”“We give the puter the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not.”“So when it goes down, you go down with it.”“Thats good, sir.”“How long will the puter be down? I wanted to know.”“I have no idea. Sometimes its down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. Theres no way we can find out without asking the puter, and since its down it wont answer us.”After the girl told me they had no backup puter, I said. “Lets forget the puterWhat about your planes? They are still flying, arent they?”“I couldnt tell without asking the puter.”“Maybe I could, just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he is flying to Washington,” I suggested.“I wouldnt know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldnt take you if you didnt have a ticket.”“Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?”“I wouldnt know,” she said, pointing at the dark screen. “Only IT knows. It cant tell me.”By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The words soon spread to other travelers that the puter was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.21Where do you often hear the frightening words “Our puter is down”?Aat the airport.

These pirates then sell those recordings on the street or over the Internet for very low prices. Some share them for free.“Its unfair for people to pirate movies, ” says 15-year-old Hadaia Azad Ezzulddin. Movie piracy “takes money out of the pockets of thousands of people in the movie industry,” she notes. Victims include famous actors and directors as well as local theater owners and their employees.Hadaia came up with an idea that could help stop movie piracy. Hadaias idea uses infrared(红外线的) light. This range of light is invisible to the human eye. It is visible, however, to many types of cameras. Theater owners could place small infrared lights on their movie screens. The lights would not disturb people watching the movie. It would, however, distort the recordings made by many types of cameras.To test her idea, Hadaia built a box with a movie screen inside. Then, she projected images on that screen through a hole in the box. She took recordings of those images, using nine different types of cameras. These included the types found in cell phones as well as camcorders. During some tests, she also turned on light emitting diodes(发光二极管), or LEDs. The LEDs were embedded（植入的） in a certain place behind the movie screen. They gave out infrared light.Sure enough, she showed, a pirated movie included odd stripes or spots if it had been recorded while the LEDs were on. It might be possible to use the LEDs to flash the date and time on the movie screen. The information would then appear in the illegal recordings. Theater owners or police might use the information to track down the pirates.Cutting down on piracy might get more people into theaters to watch the real movie instead of an illegal copy. Six out of every ten films now produced arent profitable. They dont make enough money to recover how much was spent to make and market them. Such a poor payback can discourage filmmakers from producing anything but the types expected to bee blockbuster hits. It might also keep smaller theaters from showing a wider variety of movie types.29From what Hadaia says in Paragraph 2, we can infer that _.A. she strongly criticizes those who video movies in the theaterB. the pirates dont have to pay for the movie ticketsC. theater owners will increase the price of movie ticketsD. most people spend less money on pirates moves30Infrared lights are put on the movie screens to _.A. adjust the brightness of the movie screensB. make sure the images of movies are darkC. make illegal copies of movies unpleasant to seeD. protect the eyesight of viewers in the darkness31What is the correct order of the steps in Hadaias test?a.

She made a special box with a movie screen inside.A. bacdB. bcadC. dbacD. dcab32According to the last paragraph, we can know that _.A. small theaters often choose to show low-cost moviesB. forty percent of movies now are profitableC. more and more people go to theaters to fight movie piracyD. filmmakers prefer to produce ordinary movies than blockbustersThe National Trust in Britain plays an increasingly important part in the preservation for public enjoyment of the best that is left unspoiled of the British countryside. Although the Trust has received practical and moral support from the Government, it is not a rich government department. It is a voluntary association of people who care for the unspoiled countryside and historic buildings of Britain. It is a charity which depends for its existence on voluntary support from members of the public. Its primary duty is to protect places of great natural beauty and places of historical interest.The attention of the public was the first drawn to the dangers threatening the great old houses and the castles of Britain by the death of the Lord Lothian, who left his great seventeenth-century house to the Trust together with the 4500-acre park and estate surrounding it. This gift attracted wide publicity and started the Trusts “Country House Scheme”. Under this scheme, with the help of the Government and the general public, the Trust has been able to save and make accessible to the public about 150 of these old houses. Last year, about 1.75 million people paid to visit these historic houses, usually at a very small charge.In addition to country houses and open spaces, the Trust now owns some examples of ancient wind and water mills, nature reserves, 540 farms and nearly 2500 cottages or small village houses, as well as some plete villages. In these villages no one is allowed to build, develop or disturb the old village environment in any way and all the houses are maintained in their original 16th century style. Over 4,000 acres of coastline, woodland, and hill country are protected by the Trust and no development or disturbances of any kind are permitted. The public has free access to these areas and is only asked to respect the peace, beauty and wildlife.Over the past 80 years the Trust has bee a big and important organization and an essential and respected part of national life. It helps to preserve all that is of great natural beauty and of historical significance not only for future generations of Britons but also for the millions of tourists who each year invade Britain in search of a great historic and cultural heritage.33The National Trust is a _.A. government agency depending on voluntary servicesB. non-profit organization depending on voluntary servicesC. government department but is not richD. private organization supported by the government34The National Trust is devoted to _.A. preserving the best public enjoymentB. providing the public with free access to historic buildingsC. offering better services to visitors home and abroadD. protecting the unspoiled countryside and historic buildings35We can infer from Paragraph 2 that Lord Lothian _.A. donated all his money to the TrustB. started the “Country House Scheme”C. saved many old country houses in BritainD. was influential in his time36All the following can be inferred from the passage EXCEPT _.A. the Trust is more interested in protecting the 16th century housesB. many people came to visit the historic houses saved by the TrustC. visitors can get free access to some places owned by the TrustD. the Trust has a story which is longer than 80 years37The underlined word “invade” in the last Paragraph is closest in meaning to _.A. e in without permissionB. enter with invitationC. visit in large numbersD. appear all of a sudden三、完形填空 You are only three years old, and at this point in your life you are not able to understand this letter.

Our students start arriving at our playground from about 8:45 a.m. Most of the children live nearby, so they walk to school. But some children have to travel to school by car. Each of the children is dressed in a school uniform (校服) and carries the homework and packed lunch in a schoolbag.School starts at 8:55 a.m. The teacher on duty blows a whistle (哨子) and the children line up in their class groups. They wait quietly for the teacher to send them to their classrooms. When they arrive at their classrooms, the children empty their schoolbags and put their homework in their boxes. After the children take their seats, the teacher reads out each childs name in turn. Upon hearing his / her name, the child replies “yes, Mrs. (the teachers name)” and the teacher writes down whether the child is in school or not.And then at 9:10 a.m. the children attend an assembly in our main hall. They sit on the floor in rows with the youngest children at the front and the older children at the back. As the children enter the hall, they listen to music quietly. Each week we have a different musical theme (主题). Besides, the children also listen to stories.After the assembly, the first lesson of the day begins at 9:30 a.m. Our morning lessons are usually English and Maths. Each of these lessons lasts an hour. Between classes, the children have their morning break from 10:20 a.m. to 10:35 a.m. They eat their snacks (小吃) or play games like football on the playground. At the end of the break, the teacher on duty blows a whistle. The children stand still
