He was a leader of the American Revolution against English rule. He was also a scientist, inventor and writer. And he was even well-known for his proverbs(谚语). Some of them are still used today, like this one: Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. And another one is A penny sawed is a penny earned, which means money should not be wasted(浪费).Americans like to use proverbs, which have deep meanings. Here is an interesting collection of proverbs that Americans use. Some people say Absence makes the heart grow fonder. This means you love someone even more when he or she is far away.Another proverb says Love is blind. In other words, when you are in love with someone, you may refuse to see anything bad about that person.Here is another popular saying about love: The way to a mans heart is through his stomach. Some people believe that a woman can win a mans love if she prepares his favorite foods.Some people only want to love someone who is very good-looking. You might tell them that Beauty is only skin deep. Your girlfriend may be lovely to look at, but she may also have some bad qualities (品质). Or maybe your boyfriend is a wonderful person, but not good-looking. So what a person looks like is not really important.In the end, we must say, All good things must come to an end. Make another collection of proverbs if you like. Anyway, Actions speaks louder than words.（1）How many proverbs about love are mentioned in the passage? A . 3.B . 4.C . 6.D . 7.（2）If someone says to you A penny saved is a penny earned, he means you should A . have sportsB . go on a holidayC . save moneyD . get a part-time job to make money（3）Which proverb is almost the same as the one: Never judge(判断) a person by his looks? A . Love is blind.B . All good things come to an end.C . Beauty is only skin deep.D . Absence makes the heart grow fonder.14. （6分）阅读下面的告示，回答问题。（1）Your seat number is _.A . 9, Row 6B . 6, Row 9C . 9, Row 1D . 6, Row 1（2）If you are late for the play, youd better _.A . walk aroundB . call up your friendsC . make much noiseD . walk into the theatre quietly（3）You should _ at the theatre.A . use cameras and videosB . sell your ticketC . check your seat numberD . talk with your friends freely15. （20分）Listen carefully to what I say, the time traveler said, I shall tell you something that you will not agree.Why will we not agree? I asked.Because the science and mathematics you know are not correct, he said. You believe there are only three dimensions(三维空间)-length, breadth(宽) and thickness.There is nothing to argue with that, the youngest member of our little group said.Exactly! the time traveler answered, But there is also a fourth dimension - time.We all know about time, another member of the group said.

Immediately, there was a sudden wind, and the little machine disappeared.I was certain this was not a trick, but the doctor was not so sure.Are you asking us to believe, he said, that the machine is now in a different time?Certainly! In my laboratory, a full-size machine is almost complete. As soon as it is complete, I shall send myself on a journey through time. Would you like to see my machine?Are you serious about this? the doctor asked.I have never been more serious about anything, the time traveler said, Come.We followed him to his laboratory.
