My father was a factory worker, and my mother stayed at home. Each year my father would dress up as Santa Claus and go through the streets of the projects sharing joy and candies with the children there. He loved it as much as they did!But around the Christmas in 1970, my father was out of his job and money was tight. In fact, there was no money for Christmas and my parents werent sure what theyd provide for us.That Christmas Eve, however, as usual, my father left the house dressed as Santa Claus. He knew that even though our Christmas would be hard, he could not disappoint the other kids in the neighborhood.As my father left the house and went down the walkway, Santa Claus was walking up, with a great sack（袋） full of gifts for us! He said nothing, only smiled a sweet smile at my father, and wished him a Merry Christmas. The happy man handed Dad the sack and walked away down the block.We never knew who the man was and who showed us great kindness on a snowy Christmas night. We do know, however, that without him we would have had nothing under the tree. His kindness gave my parents hope and showed us in a very real way the true meaning of Christmas.Our family has never forgotten this kind stranger. Each year we tell the story of the mysterious Santa Claus and try to repay（报答） his gifts by giving gifts to others in need.56The authors father _.A. was once the richest man in his hometown B. had to support a family of 9 people C. was working in a government office D. looked like Santa Claus most57.

Thats what all doctors thought, until they heard about Al Herpin. Al Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true ? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day. They never saw Herpin sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason ? No one could be sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.60. The main idea of this passage is that _. A. a person was found who actually didnt need any sleepB. large numbers of people do not need sleep C. everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD. people can live longer by trying not to sleep61. The doctors came to visit Herpin, expecting to _.A. cure him of his sleeplessnessB. find a way to free people from the need of sleeping C. find that his sleeplessness was not really trueD. find out why some old people didnt need any asleep62. After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe that Al Herpin _.A. was too old to need any sleepB. needed no sleep at allC. often slept in a chair D. needed some kind of sleep63. One reason that might explain Herpins sleeplessness was _.A. that he hadnt got a bedB. that he had gradually got tired of the sleeping habitC. his mothers injury before he was bornD. his magnificent physical condition C A man from Sri Lanka on Friday broke the Guinness world record for the longest time spent watching TV. He finished with 69 hours and 48 minutes.Suresh Joachim did his TV viewing in the lobby (门厅) of WABC-TV as part of the “Guinness World Record Breaker Week ” on the TV talk show “Live With Regis and Kelly”.After passing the previous record of 50 hours and 7 minutes Thursday, Joachim continued until about 7 am Friday.Sitting on a brown leather couch, he watched nothing but ABC shows. 高考资源网“Im going to be a little tired of watching TV after this,” Joachim told reporters by phone during a brief break.Rules of Guinness for the couch potato honor, allow for a five-minute break every hour and a 15-minute break every eight hours. The viewer must be constantly looking at the screen.The hardest part, Joachim said on Live With Regis and Kelly, was “I couldnt watch the people” the many, waving passers-by on the street outside the ABC studio.Joachim, who lives in Toronto but comes from Sri Lanka, now holds more than 16 Guinness records, including the longest duration（持续） balancing on one foot (76 hours, 40 minutes) and bowling for 100 hours. He does it, he says, to raise awareness of suffering children. 高考资源网64. Which paragraph shows the main idea of the passage?A. The first paragraph. B. The last paragraph.C. The second paragraph. D.

Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. Most European tourists are looking for sunny beach to lie on.Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money for the sun because they have little of it. People of cities like London, Copenhagen and Amsterdam, spend much of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason why the Mediterranean（地中海） has always attracted them. Every summer many people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason: sun!The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economics of Mediterranean countries. Italys 30 000 hotels are booked without a break every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks, and roadsides. Spains long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourists visit there yearly, or one tourist for each person living in Spain.But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can deal with. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. None of these, however, is ruining anyones fun. Obviously, they dont go there for clear water. They allow traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They dont even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, its still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.67. The writer seems to imply that Europeans travel mostly for the reason that . A. they want to see historic remains B. they wish to escape from cold, dark and rainy days C. they would like to take pictures in front of famous places D. they are interested in different cultural and social customs68. According to the passage, which of the following countries attracts more tourists than others? A. Spain B. Greece C. FranceD. Italy69. The underlined part in Paragraph 3 “one tourist for each person living in Spain” means_. A. all the 37 million people living in Spain are tourists B. every person living in Spain has to take care of a tourist C. every family in Spain is visited by a tourist every year D. every year almost as many tourists visit Spain as there are people living in that country70. According to the passage, which of the following might ruin（毁坏） the tourists fun at Mediterranean resorts and beaches? A. Polluted water. B. Rainy weather. C. Crowded buses.D. Traffic jams.71. Which of the following statements is True? A. The Mediterranean is welcomed by many Europeans living in the dark all the year around. B. 3,700,000 tourists visit the Mediterranean every year. C. The Mediterranean is always fascinating（迷人的） to most European visitors. D. The Mediterranean is now the only place polluted most on earth. EIf you want to learn anything at school, you need to listen to your teachers. Unfortunately, millions of kids cant hear what their teachers are saying. And its not because these students are goofing off. Often, its the rooms fault. Building architecture and building design can create echo(回声)-filled classrooms that make hearing difficult.Children with hearing impairments（损伤）suffer most from noisy classrooms. They sometimes cant hear questions that other students ask in class. Compared with kids with healthy hearing, they have a harder time picking up new vocabulary words by hearing them in talking.Even kids with normal hearing have a harder time in the classroom when theres too much noise. Younger children in particular have trouble separating important sounds like a teachers voice from background noise. Kids with learning disabilities and speech impediments（障碍）and kids for whom English is a second language also have a harder time learning in noisy situations.In recent years, scientists who study sound have been asking schools to reduce background noise, which may include loud air-conditioners and pipes. Theyre also targeting outdoor noises, such as highway traffic. Noise reduction is a big deal. Why? Because quieter classrooms might make you smarter by letting you hear your lessons better.“Its so obvious that we should have quiet rooms that allow for access to the lesson,” says Dan Ostergren, a hearing
