    A
    When Laura rached school-going age the discussions about moving became more urgent (緊迫的). Her father did not want the children to go to school with the village children and for once her mother agreed with him. Not because, as he said, they ought to have a better education than they could get at Lark Rise; but because she feared they would tear their clothes and catch cold and get dirty heads going a mile and a half to and from the school in the village. So empty cottages in the market town were examined and often it seemed that the next week or the next month they would be leaving Lark Rise for ever; but again each time something would happen to prevent the removal , and gradually a new idea came up. To gain time, their father would teach the two eldest children to read and write, so that, if asked by the School Attendance Office, their mother could say they were leaving the small village shortly, and in the meantime, were being taught at home. So their father brought home two copies of Mavor's First Reader and taught them the alphabet; but just as Laura was beginning on words of one syllable (音節(jié)), he was sent away to work on a distant job, only coming home at weekends. Laura, left at the c-a-t s-i-t-s on the m-a-t's stage, then had to carry her book round after her mother as she went about her housework, asking,“Please, Mother, what does h-o-u-s-e spell?” or “W-a-l-k, Mother, what is that?”O(jiān)ften when her mother was too busy or too tired to attend to her, she would sit and fix her eyes on a page that might as well have been printed in Hebrew (希伯來語) for all she could make of it , frowning (鎖眉) and studying the print as though she would make out the meaning by force of concentration (專注).After weeks of this, there came a day when, quite suddenly, as it seemed to her, the printed characters took on a meaning. There were still many words, even in the first page of that simple book , she could not understand; but she could jump those and yet make sense of the whole.“I'm reading! I'm reading!” she cried aloud. “Oh,  Mother! Oh, Edmund! I'm reading ! ”
    51.Laura's father didn't want his children to go to school at Lark Rise because ____.
    A.it was too far away
    B.they couldn't learn enough
    C.their hair would become dirty
    D.they would ruin their clothes
    52.The children's father decided to teach them to read and write so that they ____.
    A.had an excuse not to have to move
    B.had a reason for not attending school
    C.could write to the School Attendance Office
    D.would be educated before they left the village
    53.The underlined part “l(fā)eft at the c-a-t s-i-t-s on the m-a-t' stage” suggests that ____.
    A.Laura was working hard and learning quickly
    B.her father had no time to teach her
    C.her mother was too busy to attend to her
    D.Laura knew little about how to read and write
    54.From the passage we can infer that ____made Laura stare at a page in her book.
    A.her lack of concentration
    B.her inability to understand
    C.her need to understand Hebrew
    D.her determination to understand
    55.Laura finally discovered she could read when she ____.
    A.understood the main idea

    B
    In 1826, a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business. But he was not a good artist. So he invented a very simple camera. He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his yard. That was the first photograph.
    The next important date in the history of photography was 1837. That year, Daguerre, another French, took a picture of his studio. He used a new kind of camera and a different process. In his pictures, you could see everything very clearly, even the smallest details. This kind of photograph was called a daguerreotype.
    Soon, other people began to use Daguerre's process. Travelers brought back daguerreotypes from all around the world. People photographed famous buildings , cities and mountains.
    In about 1840, the process was improved. Then photographers could take pictures of people and moving things. The process was not simple. The photographers had to carry lots of films and processing equipment. But this did not stop the photographers, especially in the United States. After 1840s daguerreotype artists were popular in most cities.
    Mathew Brady was a well-known American photographer. He took many pictures of famous people. The pictures were unusual because they were very life-like and full of personality.
    Brady was also the first person to take pictures of a war. His 1862 Civil War pictures showed dead soldiers and ruined cities. They made the war seem more real and more terrible.
    In the 1880s, new inventions began to change photography. Photographers could buy films ready-made in rolls. So they did not have to make the film themselves. Also, they did not have to process the film immediately. They could bring it back to their studios and develop it later, meaning that they did not have to carry lots of equipment. And finally, the invention of the small handheld camera made photography less expensive.
    With the small camera, anyone could be a photographer. People began to use cameras just for fun. They took pictures of their families, friends and favorite places. They called these pictures “snapshot”.
    Photographs became very popular in newspapers in the 1890s,Soon magazines and books also used documentary photographs. These pictures showed true events and people. They were much more real than drawing.
    Photography also turned into a form of art by the end of the 19th century. Some photographs were not just copies of the real world. They showed ideas and feelings, like other art forms.
    56.The passage is mainly about ____.
    A.the invention of cameras
    B.a kind of new art----photography
    C.the development of photography
    D.the important dates in the history of photography
    57.The first pictures of a war were taken by ____.
    A.a French photographer in the 1840s
    B.an American photographer in the 1860s
    C.a German reporter in the 1880s
    D.a French artist in the 1890s
    58. The invention of small cameras made it possible for ____.
    A.anyone to be a photographer
    B.people to use daguerreotypes

    Researchers have announced the results of two studies on the health effects of the drug aspirin. One study shows aspirin can sharply reduce the chance that a healthy, older man will suffer from a heart attack.
    The study offered two new results from earlier findings. It said taking one aspirin pill every other day helped only healthy men over the age of fifty. It also said aspirin gave the greatest protection against heart attacks to men with low blood cholesterol (膽固醇) levels.
    Earlier sutdies showed that aspirin reduced the chance of heart attacks in men with heart disease. But there was no proof that aspirin would do the same for healthy men.
    Researchers in the United States began a major aspirin study in the early 1980s. It included 22, 000 healthy male doctors. All were between the age of forty and eighty-four.
    More than 11,000 of the doctors took one aspirin pill every other day. Each pill contained 325 milligram of aspirin. The other 11, 000 doctors took a harmless pill that contained no drug.
    The men did not know which kind of pill they were taking.
    The doctors who took aspirin suffered 44 percent fewer heart attacks that those taking the harmless pill. 139 men who took aspirin suffered from heart attacks. Ten of them died. 239 men who did not take aspirin suffered from heart attacks. Twenty-six of them died.
    The researchers said the doctors'study provides clear proof that taking aspirin can prevent a first heart attack in healthy, older men. They said,  however, the result do not mean every man over the age of fifty should take aspirin. They said aspirin cannot help men who do not eat healthy foods, who smoke cigarettes and who are fat. The researchers said men who think they would be helped by taking aspirin should talk with their doctors first.
    67.The passage tells us that the new use of aspirin is ___.
    A.to treat heart disease
    B.to reduce pain while one suffers from a heart attack
    C.to help old people to be more healthy
    D.to reduce the chance of a heart attack in old men
    68.Aspirin can help those who ____.
    A.work as doctors
    B. are under 40 years old
    C.are fat and smoke cigarettes
    D.are older and healthy
    69. At last the researchers advise us to take aspirin ____.
    A.with care
    B. as much as we like
    C. every day
    D. only considering the age
    70. From the experiment we can conclude that about ____ of people  who suffered from heart attacks without aspirin died.
    A.7%皁
    B.11%皁
    C.19%皁
    D.44%皁

    Today we visited Qinghua University. Early in the morning we arrived at the gate of Qinghua University where an old professor gave us a warm welcome. We were shown around and then we went to the library, where we saw many books and some university students reading attentively. After that we visited the lab building. In the campus, some students were studying under the trees. The old professor gave us a lecture on science in the afternoon. Time passed quickly. Before we knew it, we had to say goodbye to the professor. At night, I worked harder at my lessons than usual and made up my mind to be a student of Qinghua University.
