Nowhere did we find a place where we could have landed: where the jungle did not actually spread down into the river, banks of soft mud prevented us going ashore. In any case, what would we have gained by landing? The country was full of snakes and other dangerous creatures and the jungle was so thick that one would be able to advance only slowly, cutting one’s way with knives the whole way. So we stayed in the boat, hoping that when we reached the sea, a friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to civilization. 　　We lived on fish, any fruit and nuts we could pick up out of the water. As we had no fire, we had to eat everything, including the fish, raw. I had never tasted raw fish before, and I must say I did not much enjoy the experience: perhaps sea-fish which don’t live in the mud are less tasteless. After eating my fish, I lay back and dreamed of such things as fried chicken and rice, and ice cream. In the never-ending heat of the jungle, ice cream was a particularly frequent dream.　　 As for water, there was a choice. We could drink the muddy river water, or die of thirst. We drank the water. Men who have just escaped what had appeared to certain death lose all worries about such small things as diseases caused by dirty water. In fact, none of us suffered from any illness as a result. One day we passed another village, but fortunately nobody saw us. We did not wish to risk being taken prisoners a second time: we might not be so lucky as to escape in a stolen boat again. 　40. The only thing that they could see in the boat was _______. 　　A. chains of hills 　　B. high walls C. vast land 　　　D. tall trees 　41. They were prevented from landing because they could not _______. 　　A. find the place marked on the map 　　 　　B. go through the thick forest 　　C. go across the soft mud 　　　　　　　　 　D. see the plains 　42. This passage is mainly about ______. 　　A. the problem of landing 　　　 　B. a terrible experience 　　C. walls of forest　　　　　　　　 D. the fishermen’s worries 　43. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? 　　A. The author and his partners were trapped during scientific exploration. 　　B. They were floating on a small boat in the jungle without help. 　　C. The dirty water they drank didn’t threaten their lives. 　　D. They had no food or drinking water prepared. C The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2 September 1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were wooden and close together. One hundred thousand people became homeless ,but only a few lost their lives. 　The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the Kings baker(面包師)in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window in the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning. 　By eight oclock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Pauls and the Guildhall among them. 　Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire. People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat. 　The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out. 　After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect, wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow; but he did build more than fifty churches, among them was the new St Pauls. 　The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past. 44.It seems that the writer of the text was most sorry for the fact that　　. 　A. some people lost their lives 　 B. the birds in the sky were killed by the fire 　C. many famous buildings were destroyed　 D. the Kings bakery was burned down 45..Why did the writer cite(引用) Samuel Pepys? 　A. Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire. 　B .Because Pepys also wrote about the fire. 　C .To show that poor people suffered most. D. To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire. 46.How was the fire put out according to the text? 　A. The king and his soldiers came to help. 　B. All the wooden houses in the city were destroyed. 　C. People managed to get enough water from the river. 　D .Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down. 47.Which of the following were reasons for the rapid spread of the big fire? 　(a)There was a strong wind.　 (b)The streets were very narrow. 　(c)Many houses were made of wood. (d)There was not enough water in the city. 　(e)People did not discover the fire earlier. A.(a)and(b) B.(a),(b)and(c) C.(a),(b),(c)and(d) D.(a),(b),(c)(d)and(e) D Many of people like cooking but never have much time for it. Helen Fry’s new book Quick Cooking has been specially written for busy people. It has over 1,000 recipes, from the famous Spanish gazpacho to Swedish smorgasbord. The book is well written and the photographs and drawings are clear. (They are like those in the excellent little Quick Dressmaking and Quick Gardening.) The book has a strong plastic cover. It is easy to find your way around it too. And busy people, notice this, Mrs Fry tells you how much time you need in order to get each dish ready. Quick Cooking has four parts, one for each season. This helps you to use fresh fruit and vegetable when they are cheaper—and, of course, better. There are a lot of exciting ideas from foreign countries, and most of the recipes are easy to follow. You take something simple like a chicken or some cheese, and make an unusual dish out of it. For example, there are no fewer than 40 recipes for eggs! Mrs Fry does not plan complete meals for the “quick book”. The beginners will have to find out a lot of things for himself or herself. But this ought to be difficult with such a good book. I wanted to try many of the recipes as soon as I read them. For people with little spare time, Helen Fry’s Quick Cooking is excellent value. 48. Helen Fry’s book is called Quick Cooking because ________ . A. You can cook all the dishes in it quickly B. There is over 1,000 recipes in it C. It is written for people who don’t have much time D. It tells you how to cook all kinds of food quickly 49. Busy people should notice that______ . A. all the recipes in the book are easy to follow B. there are clear photographs and drawings in the book C. the book has a strange cover D. they are told how long each dish takes to cook 50. This passage is most probably _______ . A. a book review B. a notice C. a letter to an editor D. an introduction on cooking 51. We can infer from the passage that ________ . A. Helen Fry is good at writing books quickly B. Complete meals are planned only for beginners C. There are quite a few “quick books” for busy people D. Beginners are advised to start making meals out of the cheapest materials E Columbus College , 241 Queen Elizabeth Drive ,Kowloon City To: All Staff From: Jakie Mok , Secretary; Sports Development Committee Date: May 20, 2010 A week ago , “Sports for Life” program was sent to the parents, requiring them to select a sport they wanted their child to play.
