16、每题所给的四个选项（A、B 、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项。ATime froze in London, England, on August 11. That day, a month long maintenance (维修) project began at Big Ben, the world-famous giant clock. A daring repair team, working more than 300 feet in the air, moved the clocks 9-foot-long hour hand and 14-foot-long minute hand
17、 to the midnight position. Then, time stood still.After the cleaning were done, the huge clock began keeping time again. But its bells stayed silent. They will likely come back into action later this month, ringing out the hour and quarter hour, after the maintenance project is complete.Though every
18、one calls the tower Big Ben, its official name is the Great Bell. Technically, “Big Ben” refers only to the 13-ton bell inside the clock tower.Famous for its timekeeping accuracy, the four-faced clock rises high above Londons Houses of Parliament （议会大厦）. It was built after a fire destroyed most of P
19、arliament in 1834. The construction was long and difficult. Big Ben first rang out in 1859.The clock faces are cleaned every five years. August marked the first time since 1956 雷网空间-教案课件试题下载雷网空间 that both the hourly and the quarter-hourly bells fell silent.Big Ben will celebrate its 160th anniversa
20、ry （周年纪念日） in a few years. For now, time marches on quietly in London.56. How often do the bells of Big Ben ring out after Big Ben is repaired？A. Every fifteen minutes. B. Every half an hour.C. Every hour. D. Every two hours.57. The report was most probably written in _.A. July B. August C. Septembe
21、r D. October58. The official name of the clock tower is _. A. Big Ben B. the Great Bell C. Small Ben D. Houses of Parliament59. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Big Ben stopped working at midnight on August 11.B. The construction of Big Ben lasted from 1834 to 1859.C.
22、The official name of the clock tower is the Great Bell.D. Big Ben will celebrate its 160th anniversary in 2019.BDoes this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, you are communicating quite fluently, but:
23、 Listening is STILL a problem! First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening comprehension is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. The most important thing is to listen as often as possible. The first step is to find listening resources
24、. The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from RealM. The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station. Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated (懊恼) by limited understanding. What should you
25、do? Here is some of the advice I give my students: Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything. Stay relaxed when you do not understand even if you continue not to understand for a long time. Do not translate what you hear into your native language. Listen for the general idea of
26、 the conversation. Dont concentrate on detail until you have understood the main ideas. I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didnt understand a word, I insisted on translating it 雷网空间-教案课件试题下载雷网空间 in my mind. This method
27、 usually resulted in confusion. Then, after the first six months, I discovered two extremely important facts. Firstly, translating creates a wall between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that even if I didnt pay much atten
28、tion I could usually understand what the speaker had said.60. The best way to improve our listening is to _.A. practice as much as possible B. find as many listening resources as possibleC. use the Internet like a radio station D. speak naturally and read as much as possible61. Which of the followin
29、g is a good habit when listening?A. Try to understand everything. B. Try to get the main ideas.C. Pay much attention to details. D. Translate each word in your mind.62. Why did the writer mention his / her experience in Germany?A. To prove the importance of translating.B. To show the problems of spe
30、aking a foreign language.C. To tell us the importance of staying calm.D. To point out an ineffective method of listening.63. The underlined part “a wall” in the last paragraph refers to “_”.A. a communication barrier B. culture shockC. language conflict D. a little misunderstandingCA persons nose is
31、 important for breathing and smelling. The nose is also used in many popular expressions.Some people are able to “lead other people by the nose”. For example, if a wife “leads her husband by the nose”, she makes him do whatever she wants him to do.It is always helpful when people “keep their nose ou
32、t of other peoples business”. They do not interfere （干涉） . The opposite of this is someone who “noses around” all the time. This kind of person is interested in other peoples private matters. He is considered “nosey”.One unusual expression is “that is no skin off my nose”. This means that a situatio
33、n does not affect or concern me. We also say that sometimes a person “cuts off his nose 雷网空间-教案课件试题下载雷网空间 to spite his face”. That is, he makes a situation worse for himself by doing something foolish because he is angry. More problems can develop if a person “looks down his nose” at someone or som
34、ething. The person acts like someone or something is unimportant or worthless. This person might also “turn up his nose” at something that he considers not good enough. This person thinks he is better than everyone else. He has his “nose in the air”.In school, some students “thumb their nose” at the
35、ir teacher. They refuse to obey orders or do any work. Maybe these students do not know the correct answers. My mother always told me, if you study hard, the answers should be “right under your nose” or easily seen. 64. A person who leads other people by the nose is perhaps _.A. a hard-working worke
36、r in a factory B. an ordinary student in a classC. an experienced leader in a group D. a pretty wife in a family65. Mrs. Smith is thought to be nosey because she _.A. cares about nobody else B. often laughs at other peopleC. keeps talking to people around her D. wants to find out others secrets66. I
37、f something is no skin off your nose, you will _.A. not be bothered by it B. pay much attention to itC. feel excited about it D. worry about it67. Who is most probably popular with other people?A. A woman who cuts off her nose to spite her face.B. A man who keeps his nose out of others business.C. A
38、 beautiful girl who has her nose in the air.D. A clever boy who thumbs his nose at his teachers.DDuring the early years of the settlement of the American continent, a highly distinctive form of English, spoken by the black population, was beginning to develop in the islands of the West Indies and th
39、e southern part of the mainland. The beginning of the seventeenth century saw the emergence (出现) of the slave trade. Ships from Europe traveled to the West African coast, where they exchanged cheap goods for black slaves. The slaves were shipped in terrible conditions to the Caribbean islands and th
40、e American 雷网空间-教案课件试题下载雷网空间 coast, where they were in turn exchanged for such products as sugar and molasses. The ships then returned to England, completing an “Atlantic triangle” of journeys, and the process began again. Britain and the United States had outlawed the slave trade by 1865, but by t
41、hat time, nearly 200 years of trading had taken place. By the middle of the nineteenth century, there were over four million black slaves in America. The policy of the slave-traders was to bring people of different language backgrounds together in the ships, to make it difficult for groups to plan r
42、ebellion. The result was the growth of several pidgin (混杂的) forms of communication, and in particular a pidgin between the slaves and the sailors, many of whom spoke English. Once they arrived in the Caribbean, this pidgin English continued to act as a major means of communication between the black
43、population and their new owners, and among the blacks themselves. Then, when children came to be born, the pidgin became their mother tongue, thus producing the first black Creole (克里奥尔语) speech in the region. This Creole English rapidly came to be used throughout the cotton plantations (种植园), and i
44、n the coastal towns and islands. 68. Which of the following is the correct route taken by slave traders?A. Europe the West African coast the Caribbean islands and the American coast England.B. Europe the West African coast Europe the Caribbean islands and the American coast.C. The West African coast
45、 Europe the Caribbeanislands and the American coast Europe.D. The West African coast Europe the Caribbean islands and the American coast the West African coast. 69.

English and African languagesC. a European language and an American language D. an African language and an Asian language71. What is the passage mainly about? 雷网空间-教案课件试题下载雷网空间 A. The history of the slave trade. B. The so-called “Atlantic triangle”.C. Languages spoken in America. D. H
