I was an unsatisfactory 36 , for my heart, as you might have guessed, was not in it. I wanted, I had always wanted to be a writer and in the evenings, after my high tea, I 37 and read. Before long, I wrote a novel, called Liza of Lambeth, 38 I sent to the publisher and was accepted. 39 appeared during my last year at the hospital and had something of a success. It was of course an accident, 40 naturally I did not know that. I felt I could afford to 41 medicine and make writing my profession, so, three days after I graduated from the school of medicine, I set out for Spain to write another book. 42 now, and knowing as I do the terrible difficulties of making a living by writing, I 43 I was taking a fearful risk. It never even occurred to me. The next ten years were very 44 , and I earned an average of £ 100 a year. Then I had a bit of 45 . The manager of the Court Theater put on a play that failed, the next play he arranged to put on was not ready, and he was at his ‘wits’ end （黔驴计穷）. He read a play of 46 and, though he did not much like it, he thought it might just run for six weeks till the play he had 47 could be produced. It ran for fifteen months. Within a short while I had four plays running in London at the same time. Nothing of the kind had ever happened before. I was the talk of the town. One of the students at St. Thomas’s hospital asked the eminent surgeon（外科医生） with whom I had worked whether he remembered me.” Yes, I remember him quite well,” he said.” One of our failures, I’m afraid.” 36.

(Monday to Friday) ​ Holidays: Buses leave Brennan Station every hour on the hour (6:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Station or Sunday) ​ All tickets must be bought at window 12, the Railway Station, New York City, or at the Brennan Station window before boarding buses. 48. If you want to take a bus in the evening rush hours on Monday, you can take the _____ in the Railway Station, New York City. A. 6:20 a.m. B. 5:45 p.m. C. 11:00 a.m. D. 10:40 p.m. 49. If you want to take the earliest bus to go to the seaside for your holidays, you should take the _____ in Brennan Station. A. 7:00 a.m. B. 11:30 p.m. C. 6:00 a.m. D. 5:00 p.m. 50. Where should passengers buy their tickets? A. On the buses. B. on the trains. C. At the shop windows. D. At the stations. B You’re driving home from work. You’re tired, and the thought of shopping for food and cooking dinner makes you even more tired. Suddenly you see a brightly lit sign: “Hamburgers! Fries! Shakes! ” Your hands are holding the wheel. Which way are you going to turn? If you turn toward the hamburgers, you’ll find much of what you’re looking for. You won’t have to do any shopping, and you won’t have to do any cooking. Not only that, but you won’t even have to clean up after you’ve eaten. Of course, the fast food will be about three times as expensive as food you buy in a store and maybe half as nutritious(有营养的) as food you cook at home. That’s because you’ve got to pay for someone else to buy the food and cook it, and for those unpleasant containers that save on cleanup. Fast food is also less nutritious because the meals are not as balanced(均衡的) as those you can prepare at home. Fat content and calories are high, and the meals don’t have enough fresh fruits and vegetables. Fast-food restaurant owners, who always care about money, also may cut corners on quality of foods. Worst of all, those hamburgers will be the same old hamburgers as you’ve had a million times before. With home cooking, you can eat anything you want, not just what you can find in fast-food restaurants. The choice is yours, of course. However, if you want to be healthy, wealthy, and wise, try cooking at home. 51. When you think of ______, you feel even more tired after work. A. eating the fast food B. preparing the fast food C. shopping and cooking dinner D. turning toward the hamburgers 52. The fast food will be about three times as expensive as ​______. A. the food in a store B. fresh fruits and vegetables C. the food you cook at home D. the food in other restaurants 53. What does the writer try to tell us? A. She advises us to eat more fast food. B. She tells us how to choose fast food. C. She encourages us to cook dinner at home. D. She tells us where to have dinner when we are tired. 54. What’s the best title of the passage? A. You are what you eat! B. You eat what you need! C. Fast, delicious and convenient! D. Cheap, nutritiously-unbalanced and fresh! C Science can't explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer. Any owners will tell you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress levels and blood pressure in people - half of them pet owners –while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed the tasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more relaxed around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be because pets don't judge. A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about 11 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. Their dogs did even better, losing an average of 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog owners didn't lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overall-mostly with their dogs - and found it worth doing. 55. What does the text mainly discuss? A. What pets bring to their owners. B. How pets help people calm down. C. People's opinions of keeping pets. D. Pet's value in medical research. 56. We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting well if_____. A. he has less stress of work B. he has a pet companion C. he often does mental arithmetic D. he is taken care of by his family 57. The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that______. A. people without dogs found the program unhelpful B. dogs lost the same weight as people did C. dogs liked exercise much more than people did D. people with dogs did more exercise D How often do you use your car? Can you use your car less often? Do you know the following facts in the UK? • About 50% of all car journeys are just for fun. • Over 80% people go to work by car. • 25% car journeys are under two miles. • 70% car journeys are under five miles. WALKING & CYCLING Instead of using the car for short journeys, why not walk or ride a bicycle? Walking is a most popular form of exercise—it’s healthy and it can save you money. If you work nearby, try walking or cycling instead of driving. Walking your children to school gives them valuable road experience. BUSES Bus companies are using new buses: some run on new fuels which produce less pollution; some have easier access for disabled and old people. There are special traffic lanes (行车道) to make bus journeys easier and more reliable. So do something to help solve the pollution problem—let the bus take you to work and your children to school. TRAINS All car journeys, long or short, can be hard work. For some trips it is wiser to take the train. Leave your car at home and walk, cycle or take a bus to and from the station. Train travel is fast, safe and comfortable. Train tickets are not always expensive; some are quite cheap at discount. 58. The writer believes that ________ can give children valuable road experience. A. walking to school B. travelling by train C. taking new fuel buses D. having car journeys for fun 59. What does the writer think of travelling by train? A. Tiring. B. Comfortable. C. Exciting. D. Awful. 60. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To advise people to use cars less often. B. To encourage people to travel by train. C. To teach people how to use the buses. D. To tell people to obey traffic rules. 七、阅读短文还原句子。（共8分，每小题2分） 61______. Many Germans like him, because his government doesn't take much money from the poor, and gives them a lot of help.

C. has the National Gallery of Art; Paris has the Louvre; London, the British Museum. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings. FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the university to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone. You can call the telephone number of a university computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art, produced electronically by artists on their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings. Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he started the museum because computer artists had no place to show their works. A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records, or floppy discs, to others to see on their computers. He could also put his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needed an expensive laser printer. Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr Shostak said the FIU museum will make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their works much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum. 65.
