3.III. Cloze ( 30 points)In Britain, people have different attitudes to the police. Most people generally 21 them and the job they do-although there are certain people who do not believe that the police 22 have the power that they do.What does a policeman actually do? It is not 23 job to describe. After all, a policeman has a number of jobs in one. A policeman often has to control traffic,either 24 foot in the center of a town, or in a police car on the roads, indeed, in Britain, he might be in the Traffic Police and spend all, or a lot of, hit time 25 up and down main roads and motorways.

If there is a fight or some other disturbance, we 28 the police to come and restore order. And they often have to deal with situation at great risk to their own 29 .We expect the police to solve crimes, of course, so an ordinary policeman, even if he is not a detective, will often have to help 30 and arrest criminals.And 31 do we call when there is an emergency--an air crash, a fire, a road accident, or a robbery? We call the police. 32 a policeman has to be prepared to face any unpleasant emergency that may happen in the 33 world.The police do an absolutely necessary job, they do it 34 well and I support them, but I do not envy policeman. I do not think that I could 35 do the job of a policeman. （）A.how B.where C.what D.who

9.Most of the guests who come on our trips have never been to Egypt before.We want to makeeveryone comfortable and at ease, but we do always get the same question in advance of a trip.So here I will give you some travel tips.What should I wear?If you are lucky enough to visit Egypt between November and February, pack a sweater.You’ll need it --the desert gets chilly at night..During the day, the temperature will be agreeable andcomfortable.Any other time, pack as if you are going to phoenix or Vegas in August.For the ladies bathing suits are normal if there’s a pool where you’re going, but leave the string bikini at home --it is a Muslim country, after all.Last, if you’re planning on visiting any mosques or certain parts ofupper Egypt, ladies will need to plan on bringing something that comes at least to the elbows, and no shorts for men or women in those areas.What special things do I need to pack?One of my favorite things in the world to bring to Egypt is an Evian Mister, a sprayer with a finemist of Evian water.You may be able to find it in your local drug store.Spray a little on yourface or head, and your body temperature will feel like it’s dropped 10 to 15 degrees.Other items include your camera, sun block and extra batteries.How do I communicate with home?Internet cafes are plentiful everywhere, especially in Cairo, Luxor, and Alexandria.If you have international calling on your phone, you should be able to use it----AT&T and sprint both work internationally for sure, but may sure you have the international coverage.A satellite phone is best if you are certain to need coverage in the middle of the country, like while sailing up the Nile, but for most people these days a cell phone is fine.What medical preparation do I need?In a word: none! The one thing you may come down with in Egypt is politely called “Pharoah’s Revenge” The thing that knocks out Pharoah’s Revenge is a regionally produced medicine ,and is available at every drugstore for $ 1 a box.DON’T drink local water, DO drink bottled water, avoidthe skins of fresh vegetables, and you will be fine.Which word best describe the homeless man?

10.I talk to strangers for a living and love the challenge of getting their stories published innewspapers.I've been married for years，but until six months ago，I could be a typical absent—minded husband.Often l was just nodding when l was supposed to.When my wife asked，“Did you even hear what I just said?”1 would defensively say，“of course I did!”In January，I began to lose my voice.Doctors told me I needed surgery，or my throat would be permanently damaged.Total silence would be required for the first few weeks of my recovery.Two hours after the surgery，my eyes filled with tears as my two-year-old son looked puzzled because l wouldn’t answer his questions.I wanted to talk but couldn’t.Luckily，I'd recorded myself reading some of his favorite books.That would come in handy the next couple of weeks.It had never left.I'd just stopped noticing.I found myself understanding her better on topics I'd previously dismissed as “things I just don’t get as a guy”.I also realized my son wasn’t just talking nonstop but that he often had thoughtful things to say.Even while walking my dog in the woods near our home，I began hearing pleasant patterns in birdsongs.Before my surgery，I'd have spent those walks on my phone.After several weeks，I was fully recovered. Conversation in our house is better now，not because I'm talking more.I’m just listening better and becoming less and less surprised that I like what I hear.According to the passage，the author is most likely a __________ .

15.Like every language, American English is full of special expressions, phrases that come from the day-to-day life of the people and develop in their own way．Our expression today is “to face the music”． When someone says, “well, I guess I’ll have to face the music,” it does not mean he’s planning to go to the concert．It is something far less pleasant, like being called in by your boss to explain why you did this and did that, and why you didn’t do this or that．Sour music indeed, but it has to be faced At sometime or another, every one of us has had to face the music, especially as children．We can all remember father’s angry voice, “I want to talk to you．” and only because we did not obey him．What an unpleasant business it was! The phrase “to face the music” is familiar to every American, young and old,It is at least 100 years old ．And where did this expression come from? The first explanation comes from the American novelist, James Fenimore Looper．He said, in 1851, that the expression was first used by actors while waiting in the wings to go on the stage．When they got their cue to go on, they often said, “Well, it’s time to face the music．” And that was exactly what they did — facing the orchestra which was just below them．And an actor might be frightened or nervous as he moved on to the stage in front of an audience that might be friendly or perhaps hostile, especially if he forgot his lines．But he had to go out．If he did not, there would be no play．So the expression “to face the music” come to mean “having to go through something, no matter how unpleasant the experience might be, because you knew you had no choice．” Other explanations about the expression go back to the army．When the men faced an inspection by their leader, the soldiers would be worried about how well they looked ．Was their equipment clean, shinny enough to pass the inspection? Still the men had to go out and face the music of the band as well as the inspection．What else could they do? Another army explanation is more closely related to the idea of facing the results and accepting the responsibility for something that should not have been done．As, for example when a man is forced out of the army because he did something terrible, he is dishonored ．The band does not play．Only the drums tap a sad, slow beat．The soldier is forced to leave, facing such music as it is and facing the back of his horse．[单选题] How many ways does the phrase “to face the music” comes from?

17.It was sunrise on an August morning when the captainand his crew cast their netssome 50 miles south of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico.As the net was pulled over,thecontents poured out followed by excited cries of"Coins!Coins!"The fishermen quickly realized they had realized a fisherman's dream:sunken treasure!And not just any treasure,but early American silver dollars that had gone down 210 years earlier.In 1784,at the end of the American Revolutionary War,a heavily armed ship wasbound for the port of New Orleans.On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars.Hundreds of thousands of them were loaded for the trip to New Orleans,yet not a singleone arrived.With no survivors from the ill-fated voyage,historians can only guess at whathappened.Some say powerful storms took her down while others speculate it was treasurehungry pirates(海盗）。Whatever happened,the secret-along with a treasure valued near＄100,000,000 in today's dollars-was sent to a watery gravesome 300 feet below theocean's surface.Spanish Silver Dollars were the favorite coins of colonial Americans.Widely used andaccepted as payment in the thirteen colonies,the United States government gave them thestatus of official legal tender.Unfortunately,even though they were struck in large quantities,not many of them survive today.After the Civil War,the government withdrew themfrom circulation and they were melted down.Due to the historic discovery of this treasure,GovMint.com is releasing these coins tothe public for an amazingly low price.For a limited time,those authentic silver dollars arepriced at$49 plus shipping and handling-a dramatic reduction from the market price ofthis coin anywhere else worldwide.What do we know about"Spanish Silver Dollars"?（）

20.根据以下资料，回答62-65题。 　　If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season．You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year．A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1947), concluded from other men's work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities. 　　He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat．This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year．It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer. 　　Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking．One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature. 　　Fall is the next-best season, then winter．As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!63 It seems that the cold winter __.
