One night after she had been in Toomba six weeks, Linda had a terrible
dream. She dreamed she was in a high tower in the middle of an empty
field. Because she was alone, she was frightened, so she ran to the
bottom of the tower and locked the front door. The she pushed a heavy
bookcase in front of the door as an extra precaution. After that she
climbed back up the stairs to the room at the top of the tower and began
to do her homework. Before long she began to get hungry and she knew she
had to get some food soon or she’d die.
In her dream she suddenly heard banging on the front door. She looked
down from her window at the top of the tower and saw her mother and
Steve and all the students from her class standing outside the door.
Steve was banging at the door, trying to open it.
“Don’t do that, ” she yelled. “I’ve got a basket here. I’ll tie a rope
to it and lower it out the window. Just put some food in it.”
“We can’t do that,” a student shouted back. “WE have to come in and
see that you’re all right.”
But Linda wouldn’t open the door and eventually they all went away,
leaving Linda alone and hungry in her tower.

In the late 1960s, southern Africa was very different from today.
South Africa and Southern Rhodesia(罗得西亚) ( now Zimbabwe(津巴布韦)) were both
controlled by the white people living in the country. Although the
majority of the people in both of these countries were black, their
governments were controlled by the white minority; they were not
independent. Two independent countries a little independent as well;
these two countries were Tanzania and Zambia.
Zambia had very big problems importing the goods that it needed to
buy. The reason was the most important railway lines ran South
through Rhodesia and South Africa. Both of these countries were
unfriendly to Zambia but Zambia was landlocked and had no ports. Zambia
wanted a railway line that ran north through friendly Tanzania to the
port of Dar es Salaam. Tanzania also wanted the railway as it would help
in the development of the south of the country. Both countries wanted to
build a railway line from the capital of Tanzania, Dar es Salaam, to the
capital of Zambia, Lusaka.
Tanzania and Zambia had very good relations with China. In addition,
China wanted to assist the independent countries of Africa. The three
countries discussed the project and in 1967 China agreed to build the
railway.
60. In the 1960s, _____ in South Africa and Rhodesia wanted
independence.
A. everyone B. some people
C. the majority of the people D. the white people
61. Zambia wanted the railway line because ____.
A. it could buy goods in a friendly country
B. it could import goods through a friendly country
C. its railway going south was old
D. it didn’t want to be landlocked
62. Tanzania wanted the railway because _____.
A. it wanted to open the south part of the country to development
B. it wanted to help its neighbor in the north
C. it wanted to build a line from Dar es Salaam to Lusaka
D. it wanted to import goods from Zambia

In the past, only a few specialists in a company were needed to
communicate with foreign businesses. However, in these days of
multinational companies, where workers are required to communicate with
other employees from several countries, a common language is
essential—and English has become the logical choice.
Nowadays, even blue-collar workers in many companies are required to
speak English. For example, just over three years ago, a Dutch company,
United Pan-European Communications (UPC), was contracted to build a TV
studio in Amsterdam. The job involved many electricians—more than the
company could find I the Netherlands. There were plenty of qualified
electricians in nearby France and Belgium, but the American and Dutch
executives of UPC wanted everyone on the job to speak and understand the
same language. So, the UPC hired British electricians and flew them to
Amsterdam every Monday, accommodating them in hotels all over the city,
and flying them home Friday evenings.
Increasingly, workers who can speak English earn salaries 25-35%
higher than those who can’t. They are also eligible for a wider range of
high-level jobs.
The problem is that, while the ability to speak English is fast
becoming essential for getting a good job, there is a shortage of people
who can speak it. According to a recent European Commission report, only
about 41% of continental Europeans can speak English, and only 29% speak
it well enough to carryon a conversation. Many companies are solving
this problem by setting up English language schools within the
workplace. English language schools all over Europe are expanding at a
huge rate, and governments are looking at ways to improve English
tuition in schools.
One result of this modern urge to lean English is that a generation
gap is appearing. According to a European Union study, 67% of Europeans
between 15 and 24 say they can speak English while only 18% of those
over 55 say they can. Increasingly, all over Europe, it is the children
who are leading the parents.
64. UPC couldn’t employ French and Belgian workers because _____.
A. they were too expensive B. they didn’t speak English
C. they weren’t well qualified D. they didn’t speak Dutch
65. In Europe, workers who speak English _____.
A. find it difficult to get jobs B. only work in low-level jobs
C. earn more than other workers D. earn less than other workers
66. In Europe _____.
A. most people speak English very well
B. everybody can speak a little English
C. just over a quarter speak English well
D. over half the people speak some English
67. In Europe ______.
A. more young people speak English well than older people
B. the same percentage of young and old people speak English
C. more older people speak English well than younger people
D. people over 55 speak English as well as people under 25

In most towns today,
you can see teenagers standing over electronic machines with flashing
lights, shooting at spaceships from other planets and dropping bombs on
strange monsters(恶魔). The machines have names like Space Warrior, Dark
Invader and so on. It used to be believed that damage was done only to
those strange visitors from outer space, but now it seems that they are
striking back.
Many teenagers like electronic games so much that they can’t stop
playing. They spend hours tightly holding the joystick controls and
constantly pressing buttons marked “fire”. They develop pains on their
fingers because of the constant pressure. They play and play that the
pains have no chance to cure properly .The rapid wrist movement required
to guide the spaceship across the screen causes another problem: The
muscles of the wrist and arm become so inflamed and swollen(充血红肿)that
they press against the bones. This condition is what doctors now call
“Space Warrior’s Wrist”.
Other strange aches and pains also are likely to affect the elbows and
shoulders. Another even more alarming problem is shown by the case of a
17-year-old girl which was recently reported in the British Medical
Journal. She had been playing various kinds of electronic games for more
than two hours a day. Her father repaired games and machines and she
could use the cassettes and systems in his workshop as often as she
liked. One day, after playing a game called Dark Invader, she lost
consciousness(晕倒)and fell to the floor.
Doctors who examined her found she was suffering from an unusual
illness caused by lights flashing at a particular frequency.

about 15-20

Wrist” is caused by ______.
A. constantly pressing
the buttons
B. rapidly moving
across the screen
C. tightly holding the
joy-stick controls

swollen muscles of the wrist
