A Man Named Lawrence
This is an act of kindness that happened to me one Sunday morning.
It was at two o’clock in the morning. We just came out of a club and were trying to find our   36   back to our city. As we were trying to   37   the bus stop, a man came to us and said he would show us   38   it was. Although we were a little worried, we had no choice but follow him. He told us he was a homeless man and that his name was Lawrence.
When we passed some city workers   40  the streets, they sprayed (噴濺) the homeless man. Lawrence told us that they always sprayed the   41   if they were "in the way". I didn’t know why they would do that. They were human beings,   42  , not cattle or objects.
This man had just gotten   43  in the middle of a cold night, but  44  shouting at the workers, he asked them, "How would you   45  if your father or grandfather were treated like this?" He then told us, "It’s   46  use shouting at them, because they just get angry. You’re better off saying something from the   47  ."
It is   48  ! The world could be so different if only we put our anger  49  , lowered our voices and tried to speak from our hearts.
He took us safely to the stop and on the way talked about everything. We   50  him and told him that we   51  have never found the place on our own. He said, "I have a son of your age, and I hope that if he were   52  , someone would help him."
Not only did Lawrence clear out all the fear and distrust in our hearts, he helped us find our way, in more than one ways.   53  , this man taught us kindness. There was   54  we could really do to repay him. The only thing I hope to do is to   55  other people out.

第一節(jié),閱讀下列材料，從A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出最佳答案，并把答題卡上對(duì)應(yīng)題目的答案標(biāo)號(hào)涂黑。(共15小題, 每小題2分, 共30分)
A
Europe is now the biggest market for organic food in the world, having grown by 25 percent a year over the past 10 years. Denmark’s agriculture minister is herself an organic farmer. The UK market for organic food grew by 55 percent in 2000, while the food market as a whole grew by only one percent. Yet only seven percent of British shoppers account for nearly 60 percent of organic sales. However popular the idea of organic farming may be, it is still an interest for only a few people.
So what makes the idea of organic farming popular? Organic farming means farming with natural materials, rather than with man-made fertilizers or pesticides. Organic farmers rely on many  methods — such as crop rotation (農(nóng)作物的輪作) and the use of resistant（有抵抗力的） varieties, because they are necessary for organic farmers to compensate for the shortage of man-made chemicals.
Organic farming is often supposed to be safer than traditional farming for the environment. Yet after a long research on organic farming worldwide for a number of years, science continues to be against this opinion. The House of Commons committee on agriculture publicized that, even with complete research work, it would fail to find any scientific evidence to prove “that any of claims （宣稱） made for organic farming is always true”.
However, the talk about the benefits of organic farming is going on. This is partly because many people depend on their individual farm, the soil, the weather, and so on.
51. The first paragraph mainly tells us _____.
A. organic farming has been performed only in Europe over the past 10 years
B. governments of European countries have cared less about organic farming
C. organic farming is far from being as popular as expected
D. European countries need organic food more than the other countries in the world
52. The underlined words “compensate for” in the second paragraph probably mean “________”.
A. argue for    B. care for    C. struggle for   D. pay for
53. What can we know about organic farming?
A. It refers to farming with natural materials, instead of chemical fertilizers.
B. It refers to farming with chemical fertilizers rather than natural fertilizers.
C. It refers to farming with soil rather than any other thing.
D. It refers to growing crops with man-made fertilizers and pesticides.
54. According to the third paragraph, _____.
A. organic farming is safer than traditional farming for the environment
B. the idea that organic farming is safer has not been proven by science
C. organic farming is accepted by the UK’s House of Commons committee
D. organic farming is preferred to traditional farming
55. Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?
A. The UK’s agriculture minister is an organic farmer.
B. Organic farming is popular with young people.
C. Farmers make use of many different kinds of methods to improve the organic sales system.
D. Ninety-three percent of British shoppers don’t buy organic products.

C
A large number of women in Western European countries wish that they were born men. The number is said as high as 60% in West Germany.
“Women often wish that they had the same chance as men have, and believe it is still men’s world,” said Dr James Holden, one of the scientists who did the study.
Anne Harper has a very good job for an international oil company. She also believes in “Women’s Liberation”. “I don’t wish that I were a man,” she says. “And I don’t think many women do. But I do wish that people would stop looking down upon us women. At work, for example, we often do the work that men do but get paid less. There are still a lot of jobs that are usually the best ones and open only to men. If you’re a man, you have a much better chance of leading an exciting life. How many women pilots are there…or engineers or scientists?”
61. A lot of women in________ wish that they were born men.
A. European countries             B. West Germany

C. Women cannot live without men.
D. Women have not been given the same chance as men.
63. Anne Harper considers that women should _______      .
A. be really liberated               B. live a better life
C. be well paid                       D. get better jobs than men
64. Anne Harper doesn’t wish that she were a man because she __________      .
A. has got a very good job
B. believes in “Women Liberation”
C. does the work that a man can’t do
D. isn’t looked down upon by anyone

Catherine chooses new mountains from books—like buying from a shopping catalogue (目錄)! “I see a nice mountain and I go to climb it!” Her next mountain is in Pakistan.

Q: What changes would you like to make in your life?

(1) Mr. Brown (the motorist)
　　At about 9:20 p.m. on October 14th, I was driving along Market Road in the direction of Midwick. I wanted to go to Sturham to collect my wife, who had been visiting some friends. I prepared to turn into Sturham Road, which was on my right. In the distance, I saw the lights of a car moving towards me but it was a long way from me. I put out my hand to show that I was going to turn right. Then I started to turn slowly towards Sturham Road. Suddenly there was a loud noise on the passenger's (near) side of the car. I stopped the car and got out. A motorcycle had hit my car. The motorcyclist had been thrown over the car. He was injured, so I ran to a shop to phone for help.
　　(2) Mr. Smith (the injured motorcyclist)
　　On the evening of October 14th, I was going home along Market Road towards Newtown. I was riding my motorcycle. I was going slowly because some of the streetlights were out and the road was wet and slippery. Just before Sturham Road, a car suddenly drove right across my path. The driver did not flash his lights to give a warning. I could not turn in time, so I hit the side of the car. When I woke up, I was lying in a hospital in Market Road.
　　(3) Mr. Lee (another motorcyclist)
　　At about 9:10 p.m. on October 14th, I left my home in Midwick. Ten minutes later I was riding my motorcycle along Market Road. I was going to Newtown. There was a motorcycle about 40 metres in front of me. It was not going very quickly. The man on it was riding near the curb (路邊) but I was near the center of the road. The motorcyclist in front of me tried to turn to his right but there was no time. He hit the car and was injured. There was no car going along in front of us or put by the road.
48．Which of these statements about the accident is probably correct?
　　A．Mr. Brown wrongly supposed that the lights of the two motorcycles were those of a car.
　　B．The lights of the car moving towards Mr. Brown made him unable to see.
　　C．Mr. Brown knocked down a motorcyclist on purpose.
　　D．The accident was caused by the carelessness of the first motorcyclist.
49．It seems probable from the statements that Mr. Brown__________.
　　A．gave no signal to show that he was turning right
　　B．did not give any signal until he was actually turning
　　C．failed to give a proper signal at that time
　　D．flashed his light to show that he was going to turn
50．We would expect to find that Mr. Brown's car was damaged on its________ side.
　　A．front    B．left    C．right    D．driver's

As goods and services improved, people were persuaded to spend their money on changing from old to new, and found the change worth the expense. When an airline equipped itself with jets, for example, its costs (and therefore air fare) would go up, but the new planes meant such an improvement that the higher cost was justified. A new car (or wireless, washing machine, electric kettle) made life so much more comfortable than the old one that the high cost of replacement was fully repaid. Manufacturers still cry their goods as persuasively as ever, but are the improvements really worth paying for? In many fields, things have now reached such a high standard of performance that further progress is very limited and very, very expensive. Airlines, for example, go to enormous expense in buying the latest prestige jets, in which vast research costs have been spent on relatively small improvements. If we abandon these vast costs we might lose the chance of cutting minutes away from flying times; but wouldn’t it be better to see airfares drop dramatically, as capital costs become relatively insignificant? Again, in the context of a 70 m. p. h. Limit, with lines of cars traveling so close as to control each other’s speeds, improvements in performance are actually irrelevant; improvements in handling are unnecessary, as most production cars grip（抓牢） the road perfectly, and comfort has now reached a very high level. Small improvements here are unlikely to be worth the thousands that anybody replacing an ordinary family car every two years may have spent on them. Let us instead have cars — or wireless, electric kettles, washing machines, television sets — which are made to last, and not to be replaced. Significant progress is obviously a good thing, but the insignificant progression from model-change to model-change is not.
1. The author is obviously challenging the social norm (社會(huì)規(guī)范) that ________________.
A. it is important to improve goods and services
B. development of technology makes our life more comfortable
C. it is reasonable that prices are going up all the time
D. slightly improved new products are worth buying
2. According to this passage, airfares may rise because ______________.
A. the airplane has been improved
B. people tend to travel by new airplanes
C. the change is found to be reasonable
D. the service on the airplane is better than before
3. According to the author, passengers would be happier if they ____________.
A. could fly in the latest model of good planes
B. could get tickets at much lower prices
C. see the airlines make vital changes in their services
D. could spend less time flying in the air
4. When manufactures have improved the performance of their products to a certain level, then it would be _______________.
A. justified for them to cut the price
B. unnecessary for them to make any new changes
C. difficult and costly to further better them
D. insignificant for them to cut down the research costs
5. In the case of cars, the author advises that we _____________.
A. cancel the speed limit                       B. further improve their performance
C. change models every two years          D. improve their durability (耐久性)
