(10分)阅读下列短文,从每题A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出一个能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。 When I lived in Spain, some Spanish friends of mine decided to visit England by car. Before they left, they asked me for advice about how to find accommodation (住所). I suggested that they should stay at bed and breakfast houses, because this kind of accommodation gives a foreign visitor a good chance to speak English with the family. My friends listened to my advice, but they came back with some funny stories.We didnt stay at bed and breakfast houses, they said, because we found that most families were away on holiday.I thought this was strange. Finally I understood what had happened. My friends spoke little English, and they thought VACANCIES meant holidays, because the Spanish word for holidays is vacaciones. So they did not go to house where the sign outside said VACANCLES, which in English means there are free rooms. Then my friends went to house where the sign said NO VACANCLES, because they thought this meant the people who owned the house were not away on holiday. But they found that these houses were all full. As a result, they stayed at hotels!We laughed about this and about mistakes my friends made in reading other signs. In Spanish, the word DIVERSION means fun. In English, it means that workmen are repairing the road, and that you must take a different road. When my friends saw the word DIVERSION on a road sign, they thought they were going to have fun. Instead, the road ended in a large hold.English people have problems too when they learn foreign languages. Once in Paris, when someone offered me some more coffee, I said Thank you in French. I meant that I would like some more, However, to my surprise the coffee pot was taken away! Later I found out that Thank you in French means Mo, thank you.(1)My Spanish friends wanted advice about _. A . learning EnglishB . finding places to stay in EnglandC . driving their car on English roadsD . going to England by car(2)I suggested that they stay at bed and breakfast houses because _. A . they would be able to practise their EnglishB . it would be much cheaper than staying in hotelsC . it would be convenient for them to have dinnerD . there would be no problem about finding accommodation there(3)NO VACANCIES in English means _. A . no free roomsB . free roomsC . not away on holidayD . holidays(4)If you see a road sign that says Diversion, you will _. A . fall into a holeB . have a lot of fun and enjoy yourselfC . find that the road is blocked by crowds of peopleD . have to take a different road(5)When someone offered me more coffee and I said Thank you in French, I _. A . didnt really want any more coffeeB . wanted them to take the coffee pot awayC . really wanted some more coffeeD . wanted to express my politeness33. (10分)根据短文理解,选择正确答案。One day, Mr. Arnold was teaching a lesson, and things were going as normally as ever. He was explaining the story of human being to his pupils. He told them that, in the beginning, men were nomads (游牧); they never stayed in the same place for very long. Instead, they would travel about, here and there, in search of food, wherever it was to be found. And when the food ran out, they would move off somewhere else.He taught them about the invention of farming and keeping animals. This was an important discovery, because by learning to cultivate (耕作) the land, and care for animals, mankind would always have food steadily. It also meant that people could remain living in one place, and this made it easier to set about tasks that would take a long while to finish, like building towns, cities, and all that were in them. All the children were listening attracted by this story, until Lucy jumped up:And if that was so important and improved everything so much, why are we nomads all over again, Mr. Arnold?Mr. Arnold didnt know what to say. Lucy was a very clever girl. He knew that she lived with her parents in a house, so she must know that her family were not nomads; so what did she mean?We have all become nomads again,” continued Lucy, The other day, outside the city, they were cutting the forest down. A while ago a fisherman told me how they fish. Its the same with everyone: when theres no more forest left, the foresters go elsewhere, and when the fish run out, the fishermen move on. Thats what the nomads did, isnt it?The teacher nodded, thoughtfully. Really, Lucy was right. Mankind had turned into nomads. Instead of looking after the land in a way that we could be sure it would keep supplying our needs, we kept developing it until the land was bare. And then off we would go to the next place! The class spent the rest of the afternoon talking about what they could do to show how to be more civilized (文明的).The next day everyone attended class wearing a green T-shirt, with a message that said I am not a nomad!And, from then on, they set about showing that indeed they were not. Every time they knew they needed something, they made sure that they would get it using care and control. If they needed wood or paper, they would make sure that they got the recycled kind. They ordered their fish from fish farms, making sure that the fish they received were not too young and too small. They only used animals that were well cared for, and brought up on farms.And so, from their little town, those children managed to give up being nomads again, just as prehistoric men had done, so many thousands of years ago.(1)Why would early humans travel about in the beginning?A . To experience different lifestyles.B . To go sightseeing in different places.C . To find what they could to feed themselves.D . To do more exercise to build themselves up.(2)From Paragraph 2, we can know that _.A . people got tired of living in the same placeB . people gradually got used to living in citiesC . people spent a long time in learning to keep animalsD . people tended to settle down after learning farming and keeping animals(3)The teacher thought Lucys argument was _A . reasonableB . unbelievableC . puzzlingD . shocking(4)Which of the following agrees with the underline sentence I am not a nomad (Paragraph 7)?A . People eat young fish for its delicious taste.B . People use recycled materials as much as possible.C . Fishermen move elsewhere when there is no fish left.D . Foresters leave the place where there is no wood left.(5)The writer tries to make us believe that _.A . mankind has been progressing mainly through traveling aboutB . its unwise for mankind to use the land in an uncontrolled wayC . its quite good for students to learn more about the history of mankindD . teachers should encourage students to voice their own opinions bravely34.
