阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(ABCD)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
The small coastal town of Broome, in northwest Australia, is a remote village in the vast countryside.
There are no traffic jams and hardly any roads. There is only the massive Australian wild land, where some houses are 500 miles apart and some driveways are 50 miles long.
There seem to be only two main sources of entertainment out here; the sunset at the beach and Sun Pictures.
Sun Pictures is a very different movie theater: The seats are park benches and deck chairs, but you’re also welcome to sit on the grass.
It is the world’s oldest outdoor movie garden. Sun Pictures was built in 1916 on the other side of the globe from Hollywood. All the big films were shipped here and the lonely country was amazed.
Broome resident Pearl Hamaguchi has never traveled far from home. But in the Sun Pictures chairs, under the deep blue night sky, she has been almost everywhere.
“And we came back excited about Gregory Peck,” she recalled.
This is one of the few places left in the world where you can see two sets of stars at the same time--- one set in the sky and the other in the film.
Each night, dozens of people from around the world line up at the old wooden stand, with no computer in sight, and buy their tickets to the latest films.
Sun Pictures is also a museum, exhibiting projectors(放映机) that date back to the silent films, a portrait gallery of the famous people who never knew about this place--- even though they came here all the time.
Every once in a while, I’m told, you might find a non-ticket holder in your seat. That’s why it’s always a good idea to shake out your chair to make sure there are no spiders or scorpions.
“We’ve only had a couple of scorpion incidents but no one’s been stung yet,” said Aaron Mestemaker, a tourist visiting from Michigan.
Sun Pictures is a holy hall of movie history and a reminder that air conditioning and carpet are no match for grass and fresh air---even when the lizards steal the scene. 56. Sun Pictures is different from other theaters because______. A. it is the most historical outdoor theater in the world B. the audience can either sit on chairs or on the grass. C. it was built by some constructors from Hollywood D. all the films were imported here from Hollywood 57. Gregory Peck is most probably the name of ______.
A. a place B. a film C. a movie star D. a country fellow 58. It can be inferred that the tourists in Broome are most attracted by______. A. its peacefulness B. its beautiful sunset C. Sun Pictures D. the gallery of movie stars

The word “conservation” has a thrifty meaning. To conserve is to save and protect, to leave what we ourselves enjoy in such a good condition that others may also share the enjoyment. Our forefathers had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of raw materials: most of them, even until very recently, had the foolish idea that the treasures were “limitless” and could “last forever”. Most of the citizens of earlier generations knew little or nothing about the complicated and delicate system that runs all through nature, and which means that, as in a living body, an unhealthy condition of one part will sooner or later be harmful to all the others.
Fifty years ago, nature study was not part of the school work; scientific forestry was a new idea; wood was still cheap because it could be brought in any quantity from distant woodlands; soil destruction and river floods were not national problems; nobody had yet studied long-term climatic cycles in relation to proper land use; even the word “conservation” had nothing of the meaning that it has for us today.
For the sake of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about correcting the mistakes of our forefathers. Conservation should be made part of everybody’s daily life. To know about the water value in ground is just as important to us as a knowledge of the basic math formulas. We need to know why all watersheds(上游集水区) need the protection of plant life and why the running of streams and rivers must be made to give their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea. We need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them. We need to know the importance of big, grown trees, because living space for most of man’s fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic (立方体的) volume above the earth. In a word, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can. 63. The author’s attitude towards the use of natural resources is ______.
A. positive B. uninterested C. optimistic D. critical
64. According to the author, the greatest mistake of our forefathers was that ______. A. they had no idea about scientific forestry.
B. they had little or no sense of environmental protection C. they were not aware of the importance of nature study
D. they had no idea of how to make good use of raw materials
65. To avoid repeating the mistakes of our forefathers, the author suggests that ______.
A. we plant more trees
B. natural sciences be taught to everybody
C. environmental education be directed toward everyone D. we return to nature
D
If there is one thing I’m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. It is not that newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of their news from television or radio. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.
The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what affects our lives---the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same, I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It’s already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic(基因) engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do --- as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.
It’s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I’m pretty sure that how it will happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read --- sports and international news, etc.
I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media(媒体) . They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn’t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it’s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen. 66. What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Best Way to Get News B. The Changes of Media C. Make Your Own Newspaper D. The Future of Newspaper 67. In the writer’s opinion, in the future, ________.
A. more big political affairs, wars and disasters will make news B. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longer C. newspapers will cover more scientific research D. more and more people will watch TV
68. What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself?
A. Sports and international news. B. A menu of important news C. The most important news. D. What you are interested in 69. From the passage, we can infer _______.
A. newspapers will win the competition among the different media B. newspapers will stay with us together with other media C. television will take the place of newspaper D. the writer believe some media will die out
70. The underlined phrase “feed off” in the last paragraph means ______. A. depend on B. compete with C. fight with D. kill off 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

An important key to being successful in school is to have a pleasant personality. Students will be much more successful of they have a respectful attitude to their teachers and their peers. 71 .
Remember to have self-confidence when faced with subjects that you find difficult. 72 . Don’t feel bad and give up because you are slow in a single area. Try your best and if someone hurts your feelings by commenting negatively about your efforts, don’t feel bad, because everyone has experienced difficulty in pleasing others.

Remember to have a positive attitude even when faced with an obstacle. Every obstacle presents an opportunity for success. 74 we have all experienced failures, but successful students are those who pick themselves up and proceed even when with obstacles.
75 . There is no doubt that you have many talents, and you should not be discouraged if someone does not appreciate one of your abilities. You may be musical, artistic, creative, athletic, analytical, and/or friendly. Your school counselor(辅导员) might be able to recommend tests to determine abilities, but you are ultimately the one who will build the talents through choice and dedication(专心致志).
A. If you are struggling with a subject, be honest about the difficulty that you are experiencing.
B. Just as employers would much prefer to hire cooperative employees, teachers do appreciate students who know how to behave and be respectful. C. What students focus on nowadays is enjoying their lives freely. D. If you try your best, do not get angry about a failure. E. In a word, students vary from person to person.

I watch TV until nearly 12 o’clock, so I could not go over my lessons. This morning I got up very late that I had to hurry to school without breakfast. Yet I was late for the first class. When I entered the classroom, the maths teacher also had to stop explaining an important problem, and all the eyes fixed upon me. My face turned red. Something even bad happened on me in the English class. The teacher asked me to recite the text, but I could speak nothing but sorry, because I did not spend any times preparing my lessons.

I’m very grateful for your great service while staying at your hotel, but I’m writing to ask for your help with sending back my camera that I left in your hotel.
I checked in on July 7th and out on July 11th and stayed in Room 603 for the whole time. Perhaps because I left in a rush for the airport, I make the mistke of leaving my camera in the room. Since it was a gift from my parents on my 16th birthday, it is very important to me. It is a white Canon Ixus860. I would be very grateful if you could help me find it.
If found, the camera can be posted back to me by using the address on the envelope.
