I am free this weekend and I’ll be there.⑯(Text 10)Bill Gates, an American inventor, computer programmer and businessman, is reportedly worth nearly $80 billion.

She is here to tell us her favourite things about the city.Alice, what were your first impressions of Bristol?Well, to be honest, I didn’t really take to Bristol that much in the 8beginning, and suddenly being in a city much smaller than London made me feel a bit uncomfortable. But after a couple of weeks I started to get a feel for the city, and I realized that I couldn’t compare it to London. It was totally different and it had a different rhythm to the capital. Now, I look back on my three years in Bristol with very fond memories. The only thing I don’t miss is the rain.What would you say is the city’s most defining(典型的) feature?Well, that’s a pretty hard question to answer. There’s no one defining feature because it’s such a diverse(多样化的) place. But I think the thing that most defines Bristol is probably the music scene. People are defined by the music they listen to, and it affects the way they dress, where they go out and also where they live.What was your favourite part of the city?I liked a lot of different places in the city. Obviously Clifton Village is beautiful and there are lots of nice cafes and shops, but I also liked the Gloucester Road. I think it depends what you’re in the mood for.Bristol’s best kept secrets?Aaaah, now that’s easy. For pizza you have to go to Sergio’s, where the pizzas are huge, delicious and cheap. For art house films, head to the Watershed. They always show original films, have interesting talks and there’s a really nice bar and restaurant too. For a more upmarket(高档的) dinner try the Mud Dock Cafe and Restaurant. The food is good and it’s not too expensive.Another favourite has to be Yia Mass, a Greek Bar with very flexible opening hours and a great atmosphere. The traditional Greek plate­smashing dances add to the fun.【解题导语】 本文是一则访谈。 文章是对布里斯托尔大学的学生 Alice 的采访。21．We can learn from the text that Alice________．A．has been in Bristol for four yearsB．likes Bristol better than LondonC．can’t adjust to the life in Bristol9D．doesn’t like the rain in BristolD 解析： 细节理解题。 由 Alice, what were your first impressions of Bristol？一节中的 The only thing I don’t miss is the rain.可知， Alice 不喜欢布里斯托尔的雨。22．Where can visitors to Bristol enjoy Greek dances?A．Sergio’s.B．Yia Mass.C．The Watershed.D．The Mud Dock Cafe and Restaurant.B 解析： 细节理解题。 由最后一段可知， Yia Mass 是一家希腊酒吧， 游客可以欣赏到传统的希腊舞蹈。23．How does Alice find Bristol?A．Diverse and interesting.B．Relaxing but crowded.C．Small and peaceful.D．Exciting but noisy.A 解析： 推理判断题。 本文通过访谈主要描述了 Alice 对布里斯托尔的印象， 她认为布里斯托尔是一座有趣且多样化的城市。24．The text is probably taken out of________．A．a novel B．a reportC．an interview D．an essayC 解析： 文章出处题。 由第一段中的 She is here to tell us her favourite things about the city.可知， 本文是一则访谈。BThe groundhog(土拨鼠) has been considered a weather prophet(预言家) for many years in North America. According to legend, all winter long the furry brown groundhog sleeps in his comfortable underground home, or hole. On February 2, he wakes up. The groundhog is very hungry and comes out to search for food. If the sun is shining, the groundhog will see his own shadow. The sight of his shadow gives him such a fright that he quickly returns to his hole. 10This event means that spring will not come for six more weeks. If the sun is not shining, there will be no shadow. The groundhog will not be scared and he will stay outside his hole. Spring will come very soon.The idea that animals could foretell the weather probably began in ancient Europe. At the time, most of the people were farmers and the weather was very important to them. If spring came early they could begin the planting season early and have an early harvest. They found some animals were good weather prophets. On February 2, when they celebrated Candlemas Day, a religious holiday around the time winter ends, all the people watched for an animal leaving its hole. In Germany, farmers watched for a badger. In England farmers looked for a hedgehog(刺猬 ). They believed the animals could foretell the weather for the next six weeks.When the early settlers came to North America there were no badgers or hedgehogs near their homes. The farmers did not know when to plant their crops. In time they discovered an animal that left its hole at the end of winter. That animal was the groundhog, also called a woodchuck or a marmot. Every February 2 they watched for a groundhog. Finally, the day came to be called“Groundhog Day”. Many groundhog­watching clubs were formed. The members sometimes dressed in nightshirts and top hats made of silk. They would go to the hills in the dark morning and wait near a groundhog hole. Sometimes the groundhog­watching clubs would have a good dinner on Groundhog Day or have other types of celebrations.【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。 文章介绍了一个有趣的北美节日——土拨鼠节， 主要描写了这个节日的传说和来历。25．Which of the following will frighten a groundhog according to Paragraph 1?A．His own shadow.B．The shining sun.C．The coming spring.D．His underground home.11A 解析： 细节理解题。 由第一段中的 The sight of his shadow gives him such a fright that he quickly returns to his hole.可知， 土拨鼠会被自己的影子吓着。26．According to legend, if it is cloudy on February 2，________．A．spring will come in MarchB．winter will end in a short timeC．the groundhog will go on sleepingD．the groundhog will refuse to go outB 解析： 推理判断题。 由第一段中的 If the sun is not shining.no shadow.

Passengers should hold on tight—the railroad climbs almost 278 meters in just 32 kilometers. Completion date：July 29，1900.International Space StationThe International Space Station cost $100 billion to build and involved 100，000 people in 15 nations. It also ranks as one of the more unusual construction sites, located 354 kilometers above Earth. The dangers faced by those carrying out maintenance(维护) go far beyond a falling hammer or nail gun injury—one tiny rip(撕裂 ) in a protective spacesuit means instant death. Compl
