Believe it or not, it was a real happening. We were on tour a few summers ago, driving through Chicago, when right outside of the city, we got pulled over. A middle-aged policeman came up to the car and was really being troublesome at first. Lecturing us, he said, "You were speeding. Where are you going in such a hurry?" Our guitarist, Tim, told him that we were on our way to Wisconsin to play a show. His way towards us totally changed. He asked, "Oh, so you boys are in a band(乐队)?" We told him that we were. He then asked all the usual band questions about the type of music we played, and how long we had been at it. Suddenly, he stopped and said, "Tim, you want to get out of this ticket, don't you?" Tim said, "Yes." So the officer asked him to step out of the car. The rest of us, inside the car, didn't know what to think as we watched the policeman talk to Tim. Next thing we knew, the policeman was putting Tim in the back of the police car he had parked in front of us. With that, he threw the car into reverse(倒车), stopping a few feet behind our car. Now we suddenly felt frightened. We didn't know if we were all going to prison, or if the policeman was going to sell Tim on the black market or something. All of a sudden, the policeman's voice came over his loudspeaker. He said, "Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time ever, we have Tim here singing on Route 90." The policeman had told Tim that the only way he was getting out of the ticket was if he sang part of one of our songs over the loudspeaker in the police car. Seconds later, Tim started screaming into the receiver. The policeman enjoyed the performance（演出）, and sent us on our way without a ticket. 41. The policeman stopped the boys to ________. A. put them into prison B. give them a ticket C. enjoy their performance D. ask some band questions 42. The policeman became friendly to the boys when he knew they ________. A. had long been at the band B. played the music he loved C. were driving for a show D. promised him a performance 43. The boys probably felt ________ when they drove off. A. joyful B. calm C. nervous D. frightened B The busiest actor in the English theatre is Walter Plinge. He sometimes has a part in plays in two or three London theatres at the same time. Sometimes he has a part in a play outside London on the same night too. His name is on the programs but Waller Flings is not a real person. When an actor plays two characters in a play, his name is on the program beside one character. "Walter Flings" goes beside the second character. Even a famous actor like Sir Laurence Olivier sometimes calls himself Walter Plinge when he has a small part and a big part. "Walter Plinge" became an actor in 1990. The name was a private joke in one theatre. Sometimes an actor said to the director "Mr. Plinge is waiting for you," the director knew this was really an invitation to the pub (小酒店)! Many actors heard about Walter Plinge. Soon they were using his name on theatre programs. In America Walter Plinge's name is George Spilvin and dancers in the ballet (芭蕾) Rambert call him James Moore! When he’s acting or dancing, he's a very useful man although he's not very famous. 44. When the actor ________, he uses Walter Plinge as his name. A. is busy in London theatres B. plays a very important part in the program C. has a small part in a play D. acts two characters in one program 45. The director ________. A. sometimes went to the pub with an actor for a drink B. often invited actors to the pub C. often waited for Walter Plinge in the pub for a drink D. sometimes knew Walter Plinge would offer him a drink in the pub 46. In the United States, which of the following is used to call an actor who plays two characters in a play? A. Walter Plinge B. George Spilvin C. Rambert D. James Moore 47. From the passage we know that ________. A. the name Walter Plinge may play different parts in various situations B. the director loved Walter Plinge C. Walter Plinge is an actor in a private London theatre D. Many people often see real Walter Plinge himself in the plays C Here is a poster on a middle school website. Read the website poster.

D Do you blank out, freeze up or feel so nervous in exams that you have trouble writing answers to questions you knew just the night before? If so, you likely have a case of test anxiety. But don't worry. By recognizing the problem, you are taking the first step towards overcoming it. Believe it or not, a bit of nervousness can sharpen your mind, allowing you to perform more quickly. This is because under pressure, the body releases (释放) the hormone adrenaline (肾上腺素), which prepares it for something important that will happen. However, too much anxiety can result in sleeplessness, loss of appetite before tests, and poor performance. Some people might feel hot or even sick. If you worry a lot or are a perfectionist, you are more likely to have trouble with test anxiety. Those who have prepared poorly for a test or have had negative(负面的) experiences taking tests may also experience test anxiety. When you feel a storm of anxiety coming on, stop what you're doing and make your mind a blank. If possible, actually tell yourself to "STOP!" This will get your mind off the pressure. Then think of being at a place of comfort and let your body relax. As you continue the test, find questions you know the answers to and answer them first. This will help you become confident. Talk to yourself using positive language. Make it a habit to replace each negative thought with a good reason. For example: "I've studied hard and I know the material, so I'm ready to do the best I can." Another thing you can do is to learn to accept mistakes. In fact, they can be valuable learning opportunities. Last but not least, start test preparation early——three to five days ahead of the quiz or test. After all, good study habits and skills——for example, time management and note-taking —— will give you the feeling that you are in control. 52. According to the text, people who ________ are more likely to have trouble with test anxiety. A. worry a lot or are perfectionists B. prepare poorly for a test C. have failed in tests before D. all of above 53. Which of the following is NOT the way to beat nerves according to the author? A. Stop what you are doing and try to relax. B. Talk to your teacher or friends. C. Make a full test preparation early. D. Learn to accept mistakes. 54. From the text, we know it is NOT true that ________. A. test anxiety makes you fail to work out the problems that are really difficult. B. a little of test anxiety might be helpful to some students. C. some students can't sleep well before the test. D. some students fail in the test because of anxiety. 55. What would be the best title for the text? A. What is test anxiety. B. Why we have test anxiety. C. How to beat nerves. D. Develop a positive attitude. 第二卷（三部分，共30分） 第一部分: 短文填空 根据短文内容填空，每空一词，请将答案写在横线上。（每空１分，满分１０分） Britain is a popular tourist place.
