After a while, James felt something big at the end of his line. “The only way I think I was able to get the line back is because it was swimming towards me，” he told the reporter. At the end of the line was a 6feetlong shark (鲨鱼). Before James could find out what was happening, the shark bit his leg. “At once there was blood (血) everywhere，” he said. “The situation was terrible. ” James shouted for help towards some fishermen a few hundred meters away. But before they could get to him someone else did—Darby. Darby jumped to the shark and bit into the shark's gills (腮), but that caused the shark to bite even deeper into James's leg. After knowing it didn't work, the dog then bit the shark's tail (尾巴).

B In October, I told the eightyearolds about my plan in class. “I'd like all of you to do some jobs to make some money，”I said.“Then we'll buy food for a Thanksgiving dinner for a needy grandmother. ” Early in the Thanksgiving week, the boys and girls arrived in class with their money. They had cleaned rooms and washed the dishes. Then we went to the supermarket to buy everything we needed. As we headed toward the checkout, Kristine cried, “Flowers！” I said, “You can't eat flowers. ” “But Mrs Sherlock，” Kristine said, “we want flowers. Let's buy some purple mums (菊 花) as a Thanksgiving gift for the grandmother. She will like them. ” I agreed. When we arrived at the elderly woman's house, she gave us a warm welcome. “Thank you for the food and flowers，” she said. Half an hour later, we returned to the car. The elderly woman waved goodbye. In the car we could see the kitchen window. We saw her walk past the food, straight (径直) to the flowers. She put her face in the flowers and smiled widely. The children were quiet. At that moment, they learned they could make another person's life better. And I learned something too. Sometimes a person needs some purple flowers on a dark November day. 60. The class planned to____. A. make food for a needy grandmother B. offer some food to a needy grandmother C. help a needy grandmother do housework D. buy some clothes for a needy grandmother 61. The children got some money by ____. A. selling their storybooks B. helping around the house C. working in a supermarket D. asking their parents for help 62. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Mrs Sherlock didn't like flowers. B. All the children were ten years old. C. The elderly woman liked the flowers very much. D. The class went to the elderly woman's house by bike. 63. Which is the best title for the story? A. The secret to a better life B. A visit to an elderly woman C. A nice gift for Thanksgiving D. Preparing for a Thanksgiving dinner C With more and more cars on the road，the traffic jam will happen. How can we solve the problem? We know that the traffic jam happens in many places，especially in big cities. What are the reasons for the problem？On one hand，some people think that they should have a car when they have enough money，and then it's easy to go out and they can feel comfortable. On the other hand, a growing number of people hope to use their cars to show off(炫耀). What's more，years of research has shown that one of other reasons for the traffic jam is the driving habit. For example，many young people enjoy driving very fast so that they can feel excited. Most of them hardly care about the speed(速度) rules. Many governments are working at how to make the traffic better. In my opinion ， the governments should educate those people who have cars or plan to buy cars，and must make them know that the traffic jam is very serious. Besides，the governments should set up a much better traffic system(体系) to solve the traffic problem. 64. What does the underlined word “jam” mean in Chinese? A. 事故 B. 堵塞 C. 规则 D. 道路 65. Why is the traffic jam getting more and more serious? A. Because there are not enough ways of transportation(交通方式). B. Because there are fewer speed rules. C. Because there are more young people on the road. D. Because there are more and more cars on the road. 66. What should the governments do to make the traffic better? A. They should educate those people who are young. B. They should set up a much better traffic system. C. They shouldn't allow people to buy so many cars. D. They should ask all the people to take the bus. 67. What does the passage mainly talk about? A. Reasons why people want to buy cars. B. How drivers should drive. C. The traffic jam，reasons for it and solutions. D. How to make the traffic better. D Every year several thousand people die in the car accidents in Great Britain. And between one and two hundred thousand people are hurt. There are rules to make the roads safe, but people do not always obey(遵守) the rules. They are careless. If everybody obeys the rules, the road will be much safer. How can we make the roads safer? Remember this rule. In Great Britain traffic keeps to the left. Cars, buses and bikes must all keep to the left side of the road. In most other countries traffic keeps to the right. Before crossing the road, stop and look both ways. Look right and left. Then, if you are sure that the road is clear, it is safe to cross the road. If you see small children or very old people, help them to cross the road. We must teach our children to cross the road safely. We must always give them a good example. Small children must not play in the street. 68. If we want to make the roads safer, ____. A. everybody must be careful and obey the traffic rules B. traffic should keep to the right C. don't cross the road too often D. roads must be clear 69. If you ride a bike in Great Britain, you must ride ____. A. on the right side of the road B. on the left side of the road C. in the middle of the road D. behind the buses 70. Which is NOT right? A. Few people die in the traffic accidents in Great Britain. B. In our country traffic keeps to the right. C. We should help small children to cross the road safely. D. Streets are not safe places for play. 71. The underlined part “the road is clear” means that ____. A. there is no car or bus running B. the road is very clean C. the road is not noisy D. you can see very clearly on the road 72. The safe way to cross the road is to ____. A. look right B. look left C. look both ways, right and left D. run across the road 阅读下面的短文，并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。 E Mr Mouse was surprised to discover that the farmer and his wife had a mousetrap(老鼠夹) in the house. He ran to warn everyone，“There is a mousetrap in the house！” A hen raised her head and said，“Mr Mouse，this mousetrap is only for you. I won't be worried about it. ” The mouse turned to a pig. “I am sorry，Mr Mouse，but the mousetrap has nothing to do with me，either！” the pig said. Then the mouse turned to a cow. “It sounds like you have a problem，not me，” the cow said. The mouse returned to the house with his head down and he was very sad because no one would help him. That night the farmer's wife heard a loud sound and she rushed to see what was caught. In the darkness she could not see that it was a snake. The snake bit (咬) the farmer's wife. The wife caught a bad fever and the farmer thought the best way to treat a fever was chicken soup. So the farmer killed the hen for the soup. The wife got worse and her friends came to visit her.
