Because of its origins, Canadian English has a great deal in common with the rest of the English spoken in North America --- and (29) , who live outside the region. To British people ,Canadians themselves insist on (30) , and certainly there is a great deal of evidence in support of this view.

The pilot did not know the place,so the hunter showed it to him on the map.”But there is nowhere to land there,man!”said the pilot.”I have flown over that part of the country on my way to other places,and I know that we can?t land anywhere between this river and these mountains.” “I thought you were a wonderful pilot,”said the hunter.”Some of my friends said you could land a plane on a postage stamp.”

“That?s right”,answered the pilot.”I can land a plane where nobody else can.”But I tell you there is nowhere to land in the place you are talking about.”

“And what if I tell you that another pilot did land me there last spring?”said the hunter. “Is that true?”asked the pilot. “Yes,it is.I swear it.”

Well,this pilot could not let himself be beaten by another,so he agreed to take the hunter when they reached the place,the hunter pointed out a small spot without trees in the middle of the forest,with a steep rise at one end.The pilot thought that there was not enough room to land there,but the hunter said that the other pilot had done so the year before,so down went the plane.When it came to the rise,it turned right over onto its back.As the hunter climbed out,he smiled happily and said,”Yes,that is exactly how the other pilot managed it last time. 31.What does the passage say about the piece of forest the hunter liked?

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.

The legal limit for driving after drinking is 80 milligrams of alcohol（酒精）in 100 milliliters of blood when tested.But there is no sure way of telling hoe much you can drink before you reach this limit.It varies with each person depending on your weight,your sex,if you?ve eaten and what sort of drinks you?ve had..Some people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks.

In fact,your driving ability can be affected by just one or two drinks.Even if you?re below the legal limit,you could still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving has been affected by alcohol.

It takes about one hour for the boby to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink.So,if you have a heavy drinking session in the evening,you might find that your driving ability is still affected the next morning,or you could even find that you?re still over the legal limit.

In a test with professional drivers,the more alcoholic drinks they had had the more certain they were that they could drive a test course through a set of movable posts…and less able they were to do it!So the only way to be sure you?re safe is not to de drink at all.

Alcohol is a major cause of road traffic accidents.One in three of the drivers killed in road accidents have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit,and road accidents after drinking are the biggest cause of death among young men. More than half of the people stopped by the police to take a breathalyzer(呼吸测醉器) test have a blood alcohol concentration more than twice The legal limit.

36.Can people be sure how much they can drink bolow the legal limit? A)Yes,if they eat food first.

B)Yes,if they know how much they have drunk. C)No,they can never be sure.

D)No,bacause they don?t know about the legal limit.

37.When can an adult be quite sure he has stayed away from his drinks? A)At 5 p.m,if he drinks 4 standard drinks at lunchtime.

4

B)At 6 p.m,if he drinks 5 standard drinks at lunchtime. C)At 8 p.m,if he drinks 5 standard drinks the night before. D)At 7 p.m,if he drinks 6 standard drinks the night before. 38.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

D)A driver?s road bahavior can be affected even though he drank only a little. 39.What does the passage tell us about a test with professional drivers? A)They can drink and drive well.

B)The more they drink, the less able they are to drive.

Passage Three

Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:

Years ago, a cigarette commeriai asked if you were smoking more, but enjoying it less. That describes the way many of us live today.We are doing more, but enjoying it less.And when that doesn?t work, we make the problem worse. In our wild search for satisfaction, we try stuffing stii more into our days, never realizing that we are taking the wrong approach. The truth is simple; so simple it is hard to believe. Satisfaction lies with less, not with more. Yet, we pursue the illusion that this thing, or that activity, will somehow provide the satisfaction we so desperately seek.

Arthur Lindman, in his hard-hitting (直言不讳的) book, The Hurried Leisure Class, descried the futility (徒劳) of pursuing more. His research focused on what people did with their leisure time. He found that as income rose, people bought more things to occupy their leisure time. But, the more things they bought, the less they valued any one of them. Carried to an extreme, he predicted massive boredom in the midst of tremendous variety. That was more than twenty years ago, and his prediction seems more accurate every year.

Lindman, of course, is not the first to discover this. The writer of Ecclesiastes (传道书) expressed the same though thousands of years ago. It is better, he wrote, to have less, but enjoy it more. If you would like to enjoy life more. I challenge you to experiment with me. How could you simplify your life? What could you drop? What could you do without? What could you stop pursuing What few things could you concentrate on?

The more I learn, the more I realize that fullness of life does not depend on things. The more I give up, the more I seem to gain. But words will never convince you. You must try it for yourself.

41.Why do people become increasingly busy according to the passage?

5

A) Because they want to make more money. B) Because they try to get more things done. C) Because they want to make their life better. D) Because they want to satisfy daily needs.

42.What is Lindman?s opinion on people?s hard work?

A) It makes their life less enjoyable. B) It makes their life nice and happy.

C) It enables them to buy more things. D) It enables them to have more lesure time. 43. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about the truth of life accoding to the passage? A) It sounds too simple to believe.

B) Lindman was the first to discover the turth. C) It becomes increasingly precise over the years. D) The more people have, the more bored they get. 44. What does the writer suggest people do for better life?

A) Reflect on the nature of life. B) Accept the daily challenges boldly. B) Try to make life more challenging. D) Follow hie opinion in their daily life. 45.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

A) Work to life. B) Simplify Your Life. C) The More,the Better. D) Accept My Challenge.

Twenty years ago, kids in school had never even heard of the internet. Now, I?ll bet you can?t find a single person in your school who hasn?t at least heard of it, many of us use it on a regular basic and eveb have access to it from our homes! The ?net? in internet really stands for network. A network is tow or more computers connected together so that information can be shared, or sent one computer to another. The internet is a vast resource for all types of informantion. You may enjoy using it to do research for a school project, downloading your favorite songs or communicating with friends and family. Information is accessed through webpages that companies, organizations and individuals creat and post. It?s kind of like a giant bulletin (告示) board that the whole world users! But since anyone can put anything on the internet, you also have to be careful and use your best judgement and a little common sense.

Just because you read something on a piece of paper someone sticks on a bulletin board doesn?t mean it?s good information, or even correct, for the matter. So you have to be sure that whoever posted the information knows what they?re talking about, especialy if you?re doing research! But what if you?re just emailing people? You still have to be very careful. If you?ve never met the person that you?re communicating with online, you could be on dangerous ground! You should never give out any personal information to someone you don?t know, not even your name! And just like you can?t believe the information on every website out there, you can?t rely on what strangers you ?meet? on the internet tell you either. Just like you could make up things about yourself to tell someone, someone else could do the same to you! 注意： 此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。 Questions:

76.What does the “net” in internet mean? 77.What can people get from the internet?

78.The internet is a very useful tool for between people.

79. When people talk online with strangers, they should not give out . 80.What does the second paragraph mainly tell internet users about?
