At the time ， the government was looking for a way to reduce traffic problems in the city of London. The poor areas of the city were so crowded with people that it was almost impossible for horse carriages to get through. The city officials were interested in trying to make it possible for workers to live outside of London and travel easily to work each day. If people had a cheap and convenient way that they could depend on to go to and from work，they would relocate their homes outside of the city. This would help ease( 减 轻) the pressure of too many people living in the poor parts of London. From these problems ，the idea of the London Underground，the first subway system，was born. The plans for building the Underground met with several problems and delays， but the fast track was finally opened in January 1863. A steam train pulled the cars along the fast underground track which was 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) long. About 30， 000 people got on the subway the first day. Riders were treated to comfortable seats (standing up while the train was moving was not allowed)， and pleasant decorations inside each of the cars. However，the smoke from the engine soon filled the air in the tunnels with ash and soot(煤灰 ) ， as well as chemical gases. Fans had to be put in the tunnels later to keep the air clean enough for people to breathe. Even with its problems，riding in the Underground did catch on. It carried 9 million riders in its first year. 56.How did the London Underground solve the smoke problem？ A. It made the tunnels larger. B. It reduced the number of passengers riding in the train. C. It cleaned the chemical gases in the tunnels. D. It put fans in the tunnels. 57.What led the British government to build the London Underground？ A. Traffic jams and pollution. B. Population and pollution. C. The poverty and subway problems. D. Overcrowding and traffic jams. 58 Which of the following is TRUE？ A. To relocate the workers homes outside London，the government built the subway. B. There were so many problems and delays that in 18th century the first subway opened. C. The subway greatly eased the pressure of traffic. D. There were not enough seats for the passengers the first day the subway opened. B How to Be a Winner Sir Steven Redgrave Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals “In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes (糖尿病 ) . Believing my career ( 职业生涯 )was over, I felt extremely low. Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was it-the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isn t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn t finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.” Karen Pickering Swimming World Champion “I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to successyou can t follow a career in any field without being well-organized. List what you believe you can achieve. “Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however small they are, and youll be a step closer to achieving them.” Kirsten Best Poet Writer “When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I cant achieve something. Then, there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to concentrate. When I feel tense, it helps a lot to repeat words such as calm, peace or focus , either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence. This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological (心理的 ) tool.” 59. What does Sir Steven Redgrave mainly talk about? A. Difficulties influenced his career. B. Specialists offered him medical advice. C. Training helped him defeat his disease. D. He overcame the shadow of illness to win. 60. What does Karen Pickering put on top of her diary? A. Her achievements. B. Her daily happenings. C. Her training schedule. D. Her sports career. 61. What does the underlined word “distractions” probably refer to? A. Ways that help one to focus. B. Activities that turn ones attention away. C. Words that help one to feel less tense. D. Habits that make it hard for one to relax. C Many parents watch the news or other shows as children play nearby.But new research shows that even when the television is just background noise，it may be disruptive to a childs normal development. It s estimated that 75 percent of very young children in the United States live in homes where the television is on most of the time ，even though the kids often arent watching it.The University of Massachusetts researchers recently studied how TV background noise might affect young children.The study looked at 50 1- ， 2-and 3-year-olds.Each child came to a lab with a parent and was allowed to play for an hour with various toys.For half the time， a television was on in the room，showing the adult game show as well as advertisements.During the other half hour，the TV was turned off. As expected ， the children paid little attention to the adult television show， glancing at it for less than a few seconds at a time ，and less than once a minute.Even so，the distraction (分心 ) of the background noise had a significant effect on how children at every age played.When the television was on，the children played with each toy for far shorter periods of time ，and focused attention during play was also shorter compared to how they played when the TV was off. Researchers said that even though the children arent interested in the show， background TV affects their ability to do various types of play.The finding is important because many well-meaning parents who wouldnt let their young children watch television may not realize that even adult pro grams that dont interest children still can have an effect. “Background TV is potentially a chronic (长期的) environmental risk factor affecting most American children，” said the lead author of the study. “Parents should limit their young childrens exposure ( 接触 ) ” 62We know from the passage that_. Abackground TV noise has little effect on adults Bthe effect of background TV noise on children is immediate Cmost young children in America live in homes exposed to TV noise Dmost parents in America wouldn t let their children watch TV 63The underlined word “disruptive” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to_. Aharmful Bimportant Csimilar Drelated 64.In the study， the children_. Awere all 3-year-olds Bwere asked to watch adult TV shows Cplayed with more than one toy D played for an hour while the TV was on 65What does the study show? AChildren pay much attention to adult TV shows. BChildren should be allowed to watch TV for kids only. CThe more toys a child has，the shorter time he plays with each one. D The background TV noise affects childrens ability to focus. 第二节（共5 小题；每小题2 分，满分10 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。 What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? 66 .
