二、完型填空(共10分,每小题1分)
先通读短文,掌握大意,然后根据短文内容从后面的选项中选出适合空白处的正确答案。
When July comes, children know they’ll have 26 exams
and the school year will end soon. Boys and girls will have a nearly two
months’ holiday, and they’ll leave school 27 train or
by car to 28 to see their fathers and mothers.
The summer holidays are the 29 time of the year for
most children. The weather is usually good, so one can
30 most of his time playing outside. If one lives in the country,
he can 31 into the woods (森林) and in the fields.
If one lives in a big town, he can usually go to a park to play.
The best place for a summer holiday is the 32 . Some
children are 33 enough to live near the sea. But for
the others who do not, if they have chance to stay at one of the big seaside
towns for a week or two, they will talk about it all the following school year.
Now, 34 makes children like the seaside so much? I think it’s the
sands(沙滩), the sea
and the sun, not anything else. Of course, there are 35
new things to see, nice things to eat, and interesting things to do. But the
feeling of sand under their feet, of salt water on their skin, and the feeling
of the warm sun on their backs make them happier.

A woman was collecting money for a church charity. The money she collected was
going to be given to poor children who had no parents to take care of them. She
went from apartment to apartment and from house to house. She knocked on doors

don’t have any money. However, I’ll give you a paint ing. It’s worth $ 400. ”
The woman thanked the artist and took the painting away.
A week later she called on him again. “I’m sorry to trouble you again,” she

David’s got a text message from his friend Sam. Can you understand it?
7,15
20,15
20,8,5 16,1,18,11
This message was in code(密码,代码). How many
letters are there in the English alphabet?
Twenty-six. So can you read it now?
David decided to use a different code in his answer to Sam. This time, he was
putting A instead of B, B instead of C, and so on. His message to Sam shown on
the right was very short. Can you understand?
Sam guessed David’s code, and he replied: ZESDQ RBGNNK. When David’s
little sister sawthe message, she felt puzzled. She couldn’t read it at all.
But David was very happy that his sister couldn’t read his message! Lots of
people use codes to send secret messages. In a war, secrets are very important
so soldiers often send each other messages in code. Nowadays, we can use
computers to make and break difficult codes. Even before computers, people
invented other machines to do this.
Here’s a famous machine that Germans used in the Second World War (1941-1945).
It’s called the Enigma Machine. The machines were very big, heavy and
expensive. Every day they changed the codes automatically, and this made it
almost impossible for anyone to break the codes. The person sending a message
had one machine, and the person receiving the message had another.
( ) 46. Sam asked David to go to the ________.
A. park B.
house C.
museum D. zoo
( )47. Sam told David to meet him

dinner D. before school

new B.
old

secret

_______ the code.

make C
change
D. write
( )50. The best title of this passage is _______.
A. English Letters B.
Codes C.
Messages D.
Machines

. Boys and girls, let’s begin our class meeting. As you know, some students in
our class geton-line very often, even on weekdays. So today we will talk about
computer and Internet.I think the most important machine is computer. Computers
and Internet changed the world alot. They have advantage and disadvantage. On
the one hand, if we learn to use the modern machine and surf the Internet, we
can learn more and more knowledge and information faster and better. They can
help to open up our eyes to the outside world. On the other hand, if we spend
too much time playing computer games, making friends on the line and writing to
each other, we will be worse and worse in our study.
So I want you, my dear students, to be careful with
computers and Internet. You’d better not get on-line on weekdays. On, weekends
and holidays, you can surf the Internet with your parents. Then computers and
Internet will help with your study, not do harm to you.
