The students who use dictionaries most do not learn especially well either. The ones who look up every word do not read fast. Therefore they do not have time to read much. Those who use small two-language dictionaries have the worst problems. Their dictionaries often give one or two words as a translation of English. But one English word has many English translations in Chinese. The most successful students are those who use large college edition dictionaries with about 100,000 words but do not use them often. When they are reading, these students first try to get the general idea and understand the new words from the context. Then they read and use the dictionary to look up only key words that they still do not understand. They use dictionaries more for writing. Also if they think a noun might have an unusual plural form or a verb might have an unusual past form, they check these in a dictionary. 56. The writer tends to think that____. A. choose a good dictionary, and you will succeed in learning English B. dictionaries are not necessary to the students who learn English C. it is very important for the students to use good dictionaries properly. D. using dictionaries very often can’t help to improve writing 57. This article mainly tells us____. A. that students should use small two-language dictionaries B. what were the effects of small two-language dictionaries C. why students should use large college edition dictionaries D. what kind of dictionary students should choose and hw to use it 58. The function of the first sentence of the third paragraph is ____. A. to form a collecting link between the preceding and the following B. to raise the main point of the third paragraph C. to end the subject talked about in the first two paragraphs D. to change the subject to talk about something else 59.

Passage B Nate suffered a devastating blow when he lost his job. His boss had spoken rudely, “Your services are no longer needed.” Nate left the building filled with despair. By the time he reached home, he was in a deep depression. When he entered his house, he blurted out to his wife Sophia, “I lost my job. I am a complete, utter failure.” A tense silence followed. Then a smile crept across Sophia’s face. “What great news!” she responded. “Now you can write the book you have always wanted to write.” “But I have no job and no prospect (hope) of a job,” he objected, completely without hope. “If I struggle to be an author, then what will we live on? Where will the money come from?” Sophia took her husband by the hand and led him to the kitchen, opening a drawer, she took out a box that was full of cash. “Where on earth did you get this?” Nate gasped. “To whom does it belong?” “It’s ours!” Sophia replied. “I always knew that one day you would become a great writer if only you were given the chance. From the money you gave me for housekeeping every week, I have saved as much as I could so you would have your chance. Now there is enough to last us a whole year.” What a surprise! What encouragement! What a wife! The unemployed husband did concentrate on writing that year, and the novel he wrote became a literary masterpiece. The book is The Scarlet Letter. Sophia had an even greater achievement, and she turned Nathaniel Hawthorne from a poor clerk into a world famous master. 60. What would be the best title for the passage? A.

British scientists said last Wednesday humans may have underestimated the woolly creature. They could be much smarter than we think. Researchers at the Babraham Institute in Behavioural scientist Keith Kendrick and his friends trained 20 sheep to recognize and distinguish (區(qū)別) 25 pairs of sheep faces and used electrodes（電極） to measure their brain activity, which showed they could remember 50 faces for up to two years. “If they can do that with faces, the fact is that they have to have reasonable intelligence; otherwise, which is the point of having a system for remembering faces and not remembering anything else?” Kendrick said in an interview. So hours of seemingly mindless eating grass may not be so mindless after all. Kendrick believes sheep got their reputation(名聲) as dumb (unable to speak, unintelligence) animals because they live in large groups and do not appear to have much individuality(個性) and are frightened of just about everything. “All animals, including humans, once they are frightened, don’t tend to show signs of intelligent action,” he explained. In research reported in the science journal Nature, Kendrick and his team showed that sheep, like human, have a specialized system in the brain which allows them to distinguish (區(qū)分) between many different faces which look extremely similar. “The most important finding (of the study) is that they are able, both from a behavioural point of view and from looking at the way the brain is organized, to remember a large number of individuals for a very long time,” said Kendrick. “It is a very strange system. They are showing similar abilities in many ways to human.” 68. From the first paragraph we can find that _____. A. people used to think sheep are smarter than the other animals B. people used to raise sheep in a wrong way C. people don’t consider sheep as clever animals D. people have done a lot of research on sheep 69. From what Kendrick said in the interview we learn that____. A. scientists have learned a lot about sheep’s intelligence B. scientists have learned little about sheep’s intelligence C. scientist can’t do anything more about sheep’s memory D. scientists do not have to research animals’ memory 70. As is known in the passage, ____. A. sheep are among the weak animals B. it is not right for people to raise sheep in groups C. when sheep eat grass in the field their minds may be active D. if people feel frightened, they may become more brave 71. When scientists found that sheep show similar abilities in many ways to humans they think it ______. A. interesting B. worrying C. moving D. frightening Passage E We spent a day in the country, picking wild flowers. With the car full of flowers we were going home. On our way back my wife noticed a cupboard outside a furniture shop. It was tall and narrow. “Buy it,” my wife said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roof rack (行李架). I have always wanted one like that.” What could I do? Ten minutes later I was 20 pounds poorer; and the cupboard was tied on to the roof rack, it was six inches long and eighteen inches square, quite heavy too. In the gathering darkness I drove slowly. Other drivers seemed unusually polite that evening. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea. After a time my wife said, “There’s a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake, I wonder?” In fact a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed. But then, with great kindness, they led us through the rush-hour traffic. The police car stopped at our church. One of the officers came to me. “Right, sir,” he said. “Do you need any more help?” I was a bit puzzled. “Thanks, officer,” I said. “You have been very kind. I live just on the road.” He was staring at our car; first at the flowers, then at the cupboard. “Well, well,” he said, laughing. “It’s a cupboard you’ve got there! We thought it was something else.” My wife began to laugh. Then the truth hit me like a stone between the eyes. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s a cupboard, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could. 72. In fact the husband ____ the cupboard. A. would very much to buy B. wanted C. was glad to bought D. would rather not buy 73.

By telephone, people use sound to communicate with others and hear each other even if they are far apart. With the development of modern science and technology, the computer has come into being. Communication with computers is fast and easy. In this way, people send e-mails to each other without payment.
