Reading Comprehension
Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the informa?tion given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Some of the notebooks George Washington kept as a young man are still in existence. They show that he was learning Latin, and was reading English literature(文學(xué)作品)
At school he seemed only to have been interested in mathematics. In fact his normal education was surprisingly brief for a gentleman, and incomplete. For unlike other young Virginian gentlemen of that day, he did not go to the College of William and Mary in the Virginian capital of Williamsburg.
Washington was quite different from some other early American Presidents such as John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. In later years, Washington probably regretted his lack of intellectual training. He never felt comfortable in a debate (辯論) in Congress, or on any subject that had nothing to do with everyday, practical matters. And because he never heard French and could not speak directly to the French leaders, he did not visit the country he admired so much. Thus, unlike Jefferson and Adams, he never reached Europe.
46.?What reason does the writer give for Washington not going to the College of William and Mary?
A.?His family could not afford it.
B.?A college education was rather extraordinary in his times.
C.?He didn't like the young Virginian gentlemen who went to college.
D.?The author doesn't give any reason.
47.?Washington felt uncomfortable in Congress debates because he .
A.?lacked practice in public speaking
B.?felt his education was insufficient (不足的)
C.?didn't like arguing and debating with people
D.?felt that the others were being impractical
48.?The reason why Washington didn't visit France was probably that he .
A.?did not really care about going
B.?did not know the French leaders
C.?could not communicate directly with the French leaders
D.?was too busy to travel
(B)
It is a thousand kilometres across that desert (沙漠). The road is good nearly all the way. Sometimes there is deep sand across it. A driver must then put his foot down hard and drive through! There are three small towns along the way.
Victor reached the first place at ten o'clock. He had supper in the little restaurant there. It was a warm night in August. Victor wanted to drive through the night. The nights are warm enough in August; but the days are very, very hot.
He left the restaurant at 11:30 and drove for two hours. There wasn't a moon, but the stars were wonderful. There was nothing else on the road. Victor thought, "It's an empty desert. Not a tree. Not a house. Not a man." He could see the road in the car's headlamps. A million stars looked down on him.
It was two o'clock in the morning. Victor stopped the car. He was two hundred kilometres from the next town. "I'll light the cooker," he thought, "and make some tea." He got out of the car.
He heard sounds, ten or fifteen metres away. He could not see anything in darkness. A man said, "Hello. What lovely weather it is !" The man came forward. Victor did not move.
Then the man said, "You're going to make some tea, aren't you? I often get a cup of tea at this time. It's two o'clock. Cars always stop near here at this time. Sometimes I get a meal. Now listen, and I'll tell you a story. Then you'll give me.

People have sailed the world in quite small boats. It is not an easy thing to do. Sometimes the weather gets bad. That can be the end of everyone in it. Accidents can happen easily and quickly.
One family once had an accident with some big fish. The fish swam under their boat and bit holes in it. Sea water came in, of course, and the boat soon sank. However, these people had another smaller boat — a lifeboat, and they all got into that. They lived and hoped for many days. They ate and slept, and they always hoped ... At last a ship found them.
How do people live in a very small lifeboat? Perhaps for weeks or months? They must be strong in every way. They must have hope — they must want to live. But you can't eat and drink hope.
You can't drink sea water. Drink a lot of sea water — and you will quickly die. Sailors can drink rain water. They must catch rain water in their boat. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carry a cooker, so the sailors can't cook their food. Raw fish and bird meat is not very nice. But there is no other choice in a lifeboat! The sailors must eat raw food, or they will die.
What do people think about in a lifeboat? They think about land, a warm bed, dry clothes, fresh water and food, food, food.
53.?One family once had an accident at sea, because????????.
A.?their boat was caught in bad weather
B.?the boat knocked against a rock and sea water came in
C.?some fish bit through the bottom of their boat
D.?none of them knew how to sail the sea
54.?Sailors can catch????????for food and drink at sea in a lifeboat.
A. rain water B. fish and birds
C. both sea water and rain water D. both A and B
55.?Lifeboats do not often carry a cooker,????????.
A. which is something used for cooking B. which is food for cooking
C. which is a large basin D. who cooks food
56.?Which of the following is NOT TRUE ?
A.?Sailing around the world in quite small boats is not easy.
B.?All the food sailors have in a lifeboat is cooked fish and birds.
???C.?Anyone who drinks a lot of sea water will die.
D.?No one can live for weeks in a lifeboat unless he is strong and wants to live.

It's hard to imagine living in a world without any friend. Everyone needs friends, who are better than fortune.
My ideal friend is of course a good friend whose goodness is shown below: he has no bad liking, such as smoking or drinking. He lives simply and studies diligently. He respects his parents and teachers and gets along well with his classmates. He treats those truly who are true to him. He never speaks evil of others nor boasts of himself.
In a word, he has all the good characters so that I can follow him as a model. By his kind advice I am persuaded to go the right way. By his warnings I am aware of the danger of doing wrong. With his help I am free from all difficulties. Indeed, if I have such a friend, I shall never fear difficulties and I shall never know the existence of the word "failure".
