The laptop is a machine which can be a mobile office; it can be used to entertain us and people can play computer games on them. One machine can perform many tasks at the same time. As technology grows, the size of new laptop machines is decreasing. Now laptops are lighter, have smaller screen sizes, and perform better. Smaller screen laptops, which are more convenient to take along with, have been specially designed for professionals. Huge display screen laptops are still used by graphic(绘画的) designers and those who like playing computer games.
Laptops are advanced machines, and they can be very expensive. When we spend much money on something, we should take good care of it. I know some people who buy a new laptop every year. The reason they do this is that the old one either breaks or has some problems which cannot be fixed(修理). Common problems are the breaking of the screen, the breaking of joints of the laptop, display problems, and keyboard problems.
Different problems will always come up with machines, and they cannot be avoided(避免). Old machines will always have to be replaced by new ones. However, if we are more careful and handle our laptops with care, they will last for a longer period of time, and they will perform better. This is not a hard thing to do, but it will greatly increase the life and performance of laptops.
56. According to the first paragraph, the laptop is a machine which . .
A. is being used by more and more people in the office.
B. will take the place of desktops sooner or later
C. is specially designed for people who like playing computer games
D. can be used for both work and entertainment purposes
57. The underlined word in the first paragraph means . .
A. becoming smaller B. becoming more important
C. becoming more popular D. becoming better
58. We infer(推断) that graphic designers still use huge display screen laptops most probably because .
A. huge display screen laptops are very cheap.
B. small display screen laptops are not on sale yet.
C. they can see their drawings more clearly.
D. they also want to play computer games.
59. What we can learn from the second paragraph?
A. That laptops can only be used for one year
B. That laptops are not as good as desktops
C. That the prices of laptops are too high
D. That laptops may have problems which cannot be fixed
C
Animals，including insects， do not have a language like ours. They do not talk to each other in words and sentences. But if we watch them, we can see that they do have ways of communicating with each other.
Can you see the rabbit’s tail? When rabbits see this white tail moving up and down, they run too. They know that there is danger. The rabbit has told them something without making a sound. It has given them a signal.
Many other animals use this kind of language. When a cobra(眼镜蛇) is angry, it raises its hood(颈部褶皱) and makes itself look fierce. This warns other animals. When a bee has found some food, it goes back to its home. It cannot tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance in the air. This tells the bees where the food is.
Some animals say things by making sounds. A dog barks(吠叫), for example, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs(猫发出的呼噜声) when pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning. Sometimes we human beings speak in the same way. We make sounds like “Oh!” or “Ah!” when we are frightened or pleased or when we drop something on our toes.
But we have something that no animals have—a large number of words which have the meanings of things, actions, feelings or ideas. We are able to give each other all kinds of different information in words and sentences, which no other animals can do. No other animals have so wonderful a language as we have.
60．Which of the following statements is TURE according to the passage?
A．Animals do have a language like that of human beings.
B．Bees communicate with each other by dancing.
C．Some animals can use words
D．Animals are brave.

61．A rabbit uses its tail to .
A．warn other rabbits of danger B．tell other rabbits where the food is ．
C．make itself to look fierce．D．help it to run fast．
62．When a cobra is angry, it .
A．makes a loud noise．
B．raises its hood．
C．moves up and down．
D．does a little dance．
63. Several different sounds can be made by a .
A. rabbit B. bee C. bird D. cat
64. From the passage we know that can use words and sentences to express ideas and thoughts.

Atlanta was a Greek princess. She was very beautiful and could run faster than any man in Greece. But she was not allowed to run and win glory for herself in the Olympic Games. She was so angry that she said to her father that she would not marry anyone who could not run faster than her. Her father said that she must marry, so Atlanta made a bargain with him. She said to him, “These are my rules. When a man says he wants to marry me, I will run against him. If he cannot run as fast as me, he will be killed. No one will be pardoned.”
Many kings and princes wanted to marry Atlanta, but when they heard of her rules they knew it was hopeless. So many of them sadly went home, but others stayed to run the race. There was a man called Hippomenes who was amazed when he heard of Atlanta’s rules, “Why are these men so foolish?” he thought. “Why will they let themselves be killed because they cannot run as fast as this princess?” However, when he saw Atlanta come out of her house to run, Hippomenes changed his mind, “I will marry Atlanta—or die!” he said.
The race started and although the man ran very fast, Atlanta ran faster. As Hipponeses watched he thought, “How can I run as fast as Atlanta?” He went to ask the Greek Goddess of Lovefor help. She promised to help him and gave him three golden apples. She said, “Throw an apple in front of Atlanta when she is running past. When she stops to pick it up, you will be able to run past her and win.” Hippomenes took the apples and went to the King. So the
