A
Bill and his family have been living in the same old building for eight years. The landlord (房東) also lives there, and usually all the tenants (房客) got along fairly well with one another. Recently, however, there has been a change in their relations.
A nice, quiet old couple used to live there, too. The old lady would sometimes bring some small cakes she made to Bill‘s mother, who in return would give her some meat or help her with shopping. Unfortunately, the old lady died last month. As her husband couldn’t live alone, his grandson moved in.
The grandson, a youth of about twenty, has become a problem to Bill‘s family because he is so noisy. Bill’s family members were used to peace and quiet, but the youth likes to listen to his radio late at night. Sometimes his friends came for a visit, and they also made a lot of noise. Everyone in Bill‘s family has been bothered by the new comer and getting angry.
Bill‘s mother once politely asked the old man if he was able to sleep well at night, but it seemed that he didn’t understand what she meant and so never spoke to his grandson about it. If he did, the grandson apparently didn‘t listen, since things have not changed any. Everyone in Bill’s family agrees that something has to be done, but no one wants to hurt the old man‘s feelings or cause him any problems.
( )51. Which of the following statements is not true?
A. The old man could not live without his wife‘s help.

( )52. The grandson makes a lot of noise as _________.
A. he never cares whether the neighbours might want to live in peace and quiet
B. the walls of the building are thin
C. he likes to listen to his radio early in the morning
D. friends come to visit him

The sea is the largest unknown part of the world. It covers seventy-one percent of the earth. There is still much to be discovered about this vast blanket of water.
If the waters of the oceans could be moved away, the sea floor with its wide valleys, irregular mountains and rivers in the sea would be an unbelievable sight. Around the edges of the continents the ocean floor is flat and the water does not become much deeper for about thirty miles. Where there are high young mountains along the coast, this flat part may be much less than thirty miles. But where rivers flow into the sea, the flat area may extent for hundreds of miles.
The region near the continents, where the water is not so deep, is the place where the ocean‘s greatest riches in marine life are found. Below these creatures and plants are the largest known quantities of minerals.
At the end of the flat part the sea floor suddenly drops down, forming deep hollows which are shaped like bowls. These huge hollows hold most of the world‘s water.
Imagine, if you can, a mountain chain stretching 40,000 miles around the earth. It is hard to believe that this great under-water chain of mountain encircling the earth was discovered only a few years ago.
( )55. Land areas cover _______ of the earth.
A. seventy-one percent B. two-thirds
C. thirty-one percent D. twenty-nine percent
( )56. Around the edges of the continents the water is relatively ________.
A. narrow B. deep C. shallow D. regular
( )57. _______ is the good place for living creatures and plants.
A. The deep water area of the sea
B. The edges of the continent
C. The shallow water area not far from the continents
D. The area around the continents
( )58. A few years ago, ________ of 40,000 miles was ________.
A. a chain of mountains;
found
B. a mountain chain;
engirded
C. an under water chain of mountains;
discovered
D. a mountain chain around the earth;
imagined
C
Jenkins was a jeweler, a master craftsman for the Silkstone Jewellery Company. Ten years ago he made a large diamond ring for the company. It was worth $2,000. The second looked exactly like the first. Jenkins knew it would pass all the usual tests—except one perhaps. Jenkins gave the much more valuable ring to his wife, It was her fortieth birthday, and the couple flew to Paris for a weekend. Later, the company sold the ring for $6,000.
Six months ago the buyer brought it back to Silkstone‘s head office. “It’s a faulty diamond,” he said. “It isn‘t worth the high price I paid.”
He explained the ,facts. His wife‘s car had caught fire in an accident. She had escaped, but the ring had come off her finger. It had fallen to the floor and been damaged in the great heat of the burning petrol.
The company had to agree. They knew that no fire on earth can ever damage a perfect diamond. Someone had taken the real diamond and put a faulty stone in its place. The question was: who?
A picture of the ring appeared in the newspapers. A professional photographer thought he recognized the ring. The next day there was another picture in the paper: it showed a famous actress walking out to a plane for Paris. Behind the actress there was a woman wearing a large diamond ring. “Do you know the woman with the lovely diamond ring?” the papers asked their readers.
At his trial, Jenkins asked the judge to consider eighty-one similar crimes against the Silkstone Jewellery Company.
The judge said, “You are a master craftsman who turned bad. I feel rather sorry. But I must send you to prison. Seven years.”

The badger (獾) has been nicknamed “doormat” because of its broad, squat form and is hairy back. Actually it is a courageous fighter. In pioneer days it was considered as great sport to turn a pack of dogs loose on this furry foe, but few dogs were willing to challenge the badger a second time.
When attacked, the badger digs a protective hole. If cornered, it releases a strong odor (臭氣) from glands (腺) near its tail. The badger‘s height only about nine inches—places its throat below the line of attack of most dogs, and the back of its neck is protected by coarse hair.
In a fight, the badger‘s front claws are formidable weapons. It can leave a dog limping after one well placed bite of its sharp teeth. Only the low-slung dachshund can easily get a deadly throat hold on the badger;
his dog was once much used in “badgering”。 Fortunately for the badger, the popularity of this sport has decreased considerably.
( )63. The badger releases a strong odor when it is _______.
A. attacking another animal B. retreating from the fight
C. cornered by its enemies D. digging a hole
( )64. It is hard for most dogs to attack a badger‘s throat because of the badger’s ______.
A. low height B. sharp teeth C. powerful claws D.shin
( )65. The badger‘s coarse hair helps to _______.
A. warn it of danger B. camouflage it
C. protect it from enemies D. both B and C
