I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The notice in the paper said
that you could buy tickets at the theatre box office in Richland Hills any day between 10: and 3:
since I work from 9: to 5: The only time I could go to the theatre was during my 45-minute
lunch break. Unluckily, the theater is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and
Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes.
Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for the bus. By the time I saw one come
around the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip. So I gave up and went back to the office.
The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday, my luck changed. I got on a
bus right away. When I got there, however, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man
say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. I knew I would not have enough time to wait in line. So I
caught the next bus and went back across the town. By Friday I decided to make the trip by taxi. It was
expensive, but I felt the concert would be worth hearing. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but it felt like
an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, I
quickly found, was that they had already sold all the tickets.
81. The writer learned that there would be a concert last Friday.

Iceland lies in the North Atlantic Ocean. It lies between 63°24′and 66°33′N and between 13°30′ and
24°2′W and is the second largest island in Europe. It is close to the Arctic Circle(北极圈), yet in fact, only one
of its northerly islands lies inside. The country has a total area of 103,000 sq. km and a coastline of about
6.600km. The island is 300km wide from north to south, and 500km across from west to east. From 1262 to
1944 Iceland was ruled (统治) first by Norway and then by Denmark. Centuries of foreign rule, and such
4
things as volcanoes(火山) and the weather, made life very difficult as times for the Icelanders; there was lots
of hard work and little change. The situation (情况) began to improve during the nineteenth century. Then in
1944 Iceland became an independent republic(独立共和国);since that time it has become a quite rich country
where the people enjoy having cars, modern houses and lots of electrical equipment. If you look at the kind of
products that Iceland exports(出口) today — fish, meat and wool for example — it’s easy to see that both the
sea and the land are important to Icelanders. This has been true in fact since the time of the first Icelanders —
Vikings from Norway who arrived in AD 874(公元874年)
Some things in the lives of the Icelanders have changed very little, the Icelandic language, for example,
700 years ago the stories called Sagas were first written down; these can still be read in the old language
without much difficulty by Icelandic speakers today.
is Iceland?
A. In the Arctic Circle. B. Near the Atlantic Ocean.
C. Between Norway and Denmark. D. In Europe.
Iceland, the distance from north to south is that from west to east.
A. much longer than B. shorter than
C. the same as D. a little longer than
88. How many years did Norway and Denmark rule Iceland?
A.700 B.682 C.388 D.1070
89. What has hardly changed in Iceland?
A. Exporting products. B. The Icelandic Language.
C. House equipment. D. The lives of the Icelanders.
90. Which of the following sentences is NOT true?
A. Iceland has been an independent republic since Vikings began to live there.
B. Iceland is a country of many small islands.
C. Iceland is not the largest island in the world.
D. Iceland is quite a modern country now.

Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big, and
they can eat small animals. One famous meat–eating plant is the Venus flytrap(捕蝇草).
The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the
pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly
touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses
the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly.
Why do plants do it? Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some
places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen(氮). Animal
meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let’s hope that some of the bigger
plants don’t get the same idea!
94. From the passage, we learn that ?
A. all plants can eat people
C. some plants can eat people
A. plants are dangerous to animals
B. animals are dangerous to plants
C. plants want to get what they need from animal meat
D. plants want to protect themselves against animals.
B. all plants can eat animals
D. some plants can eat animals
95. Why do some plants eat animal meat? Because .

around the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip. So I gave up and went back to the office.
The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday, my luck changed. I got on a
bus right away. When I got there, however, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man
say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. I knew I would not have enough time to wait in line. So I
caught the next bus and went back across the town. By Friday I decided to make the trip by taxi. It was
expensive, but I felt the concert would be worth hearing. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but it felt like
an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, I
quickly found, was that they had already sold all the tickets.

Iceland lies in the North Atlantic Ocean. It lies between 63°24′and 66°33′N and between 13°30′ and
24°2′W and is the second largest island in Europe. It is close to the Arctic Circle(北极圈), yet in fact, only one
of its northerly islands lies inside. The country has a total area of 103,000 sq. km and a coastline of about
6.600km. The island is 300km wide from north to south, and 500km across from west to east. From 1262 to
1944 Iceland was ruled (统治) first by Norway and then by Denmark. Centuries of foreign rule, and such
4
things as volcanoes(火山) and the weather, made life very difficult as times for the Icelanders; there was lots
of hard work and little change. The situation (情况) began to improve during the nineteenth century. Then in
1944 Iceland became an independent republic(独立共和国);since that time it has become a quite rich country
where the people enjoy having cars, modern houses and lots of electrical equipment. If you look at the kind of
products that Iceland exports(出口) today — fish, meat and wool for example — it’s easy to see that both the
sea and the land are important to Icelanders. This has been true in fact since the time of the first Icelanders —
Vikings from Norway who arrived in AD 874(公元874年)
Some things in the lives of the Icelanders have changed very little, the Icelandic language, for example,
700 years ago the stories called Sagas were first written down; these can still be read in the old language
without much difficulty by Icelandic speakers today.

Can plants eat people? Probably not, but there are many plants that eat meat. Some of them are big, and
they can eat small animals. One famous meat–eating plant is the Venus flytrap(捕蝇草).
The Venus flytrap is a very strange plant. It grows in dry parts of the United States. Its leaves are like the
pages of a book. They can open and close very quickly. Inside the leaves, there are three small hairs. If a fly
touches one of the hairs, the leaf closes quickly. The fly cannot get out. In about half an hour, the leaf presses
the fly until it is dead. Then, the plant covers the fly. Slowly, the plant eats the fly.
Why do plants do it? Most plants get what they need from the sun, the air, and the ground. In some
places, the ground is very poor. It doesn’t have all these important things, especially nitrogen(氮). Animal
meat has a lot of nitrogen, so some plants eat meat to get what they need. Let’s hope that some of the bigger
plants don’t get the same idea!
