Personally I think trains are exciting and romantic. I must 21 that trains are not important means of transportation in the US, but I do have some 22 with them.
When I was a child, growing up in a small town with very little 23 , we used to go to the station to watch the passenger trains coming in. There was something 24 about the steaming, roaring string of cars coming into view around the mountains, slowly growing larger and 25 and finally 26 crowds of strangers onto the platform.
I took my 27 train trip when I was ten years old. I went with my elder sister to visit our cousins six hundred miles away. The train--so loud and violent on the outside--was 28 and rocking inside. We were very excited, and as that was also our first time away from our parents, we felt somewhat frightened too. However, because I had 29 so much, I was a little disappointed when I was finally one of the passengers I had 30 for so long.
As a college student, I 31 ride overnight train to my roommate’s hometown. We could never afford a 32 , so we played cards, sang, ate, read and talked 33 we finally fell uncomfortably asleep in the straight-backed seats.
My idea that trains are 34 may come from the fact that my husband and I took the train on our honeymoon, spending extra money to eat in the dining car, and 35 the window as the desert scenery slid past.
Now, when I make a trip, I always fly or drive, and 36 are not a very important part of my life. 37 , every time I hear the train whistle faraway on a quiet night, I can always feel the 38 in my heart to pack my bags and jump on board, entering a 39 world of motions, sounds, sights, and experience which just aren’t 40 in the dull environment of an airplane.

III.阅读理解（共15小题，每题4分，满分60分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
We do not usually think about how our language works. Talking is such a natural, everyday activity that we do not often stop to consider how it actually works. When we do study our language, though, we are often surprised that we are able to understand our conversations. Words can mean so many different things. However, it turns out that the speaking situation helps a lot in making language work.
First, the speaking situation helps make words more particular. For example, the word “dog” can describe a dog that a speaker saw in a dream. It can also be used to discuss a neighbor’s dog. No language has a separate word for the idea “dog that I saw yesterday” and another word for the idea “dog that I saw in a dream.” This is because the speaking situation makes it clear what speakers mean when they use words. So, when you have a conversation with your neighbor, the knowledge that you have a dog tells your neighbor what the word “dog” probably means in that situation.
The speaking situation also helps make language clearer. For example, the word “bank” has two possible meanings. It can mean “a place where people keep money,” but it can also mean “the side of a river.” So the sentence “I went to the bank” is not clear. It could mean I went to the side of the river or it could mean I went to the place where my money is kept. However, if the speaker is talking about fishing or going to the mountains, others probably know that “bank” means “the side of a river.”
The things that speakers say may not always be clear. Sometimes the words are not very particular, but the speaking situation can provide the meaning. Other times words may have many meanings. Then the speaking situation limits the right meaning. This extra knowledge from the situation is very important to understand language.
41.The passage is mainly about _____.
A. the best time and place to talk to others
B. how speaking situation helps language work
C. what to say in difficult situations
D. how our language works
42. According to the passage, we can safely say that _____.
A. a speaking situation does not affect the meaning of words
B. speaking is not very natural for most people
C. a speaking situation is not important
D. people often do not consider how talking works
43. By using the example of the word “dog”, the writer wants to show that _____.
A. a word may need to be explained in a conversation
B. a word may have different meanings
C. speaking situation helps people understand the particular meaning of a word
D. the meaning of words is not particular
44. According to the passage, we can know the meaning of the word “bank” by referring to _______.
A. the time and the place where the conversation happens
B. the occupation of the person who uses the word
C. earlier or later parts of the conversation
D. a reliable dictionary

B
I turned 16 on Friday, but the Driver’s License Office in my small hometown was only open on Tuesday, so I had to wait through that extremely long weekend and an endless Monday before going in for my examination.
I came to the Driver’s License Office half an hour earlier that Tuesday morning, pacing back and forth on the worn porch waiting for the office to open at eight. I reviewed the driver’s manual for the hundredth time. I was ready. I knew the manual backward and forward; I had made an “A” in my driver’s training course, and I was a genius behind the wheel.
Finally, the door opened and a weary-looking man in a brown uniform let me in.
“Let me guess. You want to take the driver’s test.” his voice was not enthusiastic.
“Yes!” I answered in excitement.
“Ok, fill this out, and if you pass we’ll go for a drive.”
I grabbed the test and rushed to the desk where I filled it out in record time. A quick check showed that my paper was perfect.
“Let’s get in the car.” He tossed me a set of keys, and I slid behind the wheel. Everything was going smoothly as we pulled out of the empty parking lot. I signaled a right hand turn, and we were on a deserted street. This was going to be easy.
“Turn left and go up Young Blood Hill,” he ordered. My hometown is in the mountains, and Young Blood Hill was almost vertical. As I eased up the steep hill and came to a stop at the top, I heard the car’s engine die. My heart sank. I would have to start it again without rolling back down the hill. I swallowed hard and turned the key; as I moved my foot from the brake, the car began to roll. I suppose I could have rolled all the way back to the bottom except for one thing. There was something behind me which stopped my roll with a rough shake and crash of glass—a police car.
The policeman wrote me a ticket as I looked over the damage, and the man from the Driver’s License Office slid behind the wheel. I waited until we had parked before I asked how long a person had to wait before taking the test again.
45. What time does “that Tuesday morning” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The morning when he made an “A” in his driver’s training course.
B. The morning when he knew the driver’s manual perfectly well.
C. The first Tuesday morning immediately after his16th birthday.
D. The Tuesday morning right before his 16th birthday.
46. Why didn’t the car roll back to the bottom?
A. The engine died.
B. It hit a police car.
C. The writer braked it hard.
D. The man from the Driver’s License Office helped make it stop.
47. From the underlined sentence “I grabbed the test and rushed to the desk where I filled it out in record time”, we can know that ______ .
A. the writer didn’t like the man from the Driver’s License Office.
B. the writer was excited and eager to go for the driver’s test.
C. time for the test was tight.
D. the test paper was very easy.
48. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. The man from the Driver’s License Office got a ticket.
B. The policeman drove the car away after the accident.
C. The writer failed the driving test.
D. The writer didn’t want to take the driving test again.
