三、 阅读理解。(每题2分，共40分)
A
If there is one person who has left a deep impression on me, it’s my teacher Mrs. Pathak who was my class teacher for three years. In my childhood, how I wished I had a mother or a sister like her. One moment she could be tough (严厉的) and strict, another moment caring and compassionate (富有同情心的).
She always encouraged us to tell the truth. For instance, if one had not done the homework, he need not lie. She allowed us to make mistakes, saying we couldn’t be perfect all the time, but we should try.
Another thing she taught me early on was punctuality. She set a good example with her own behaviour. She was always on time, so we students tried our best to be on time.
She surprised us with her sense of humour. Her classroom teaching was always humorous. After class, she talked to us and told us jokes.
We really felt free to ask questions and Mrs. Pathak would give the answers. If she did not know — there had been some occasions (场合) — she would say so. We all then tried to find out the answers. Whoever came up with the answer was appreciated and given the due credit (应有的称赞). Now I sometimes wonder whether Mrs. Pathak was pretending just to encourage us to explore and find answers by ourselves.
41. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT suitable for describing Mrs. Pathak?
A. Tough. B. Humorous. C. Compassionate. D. Careful.
42. The underlined word “punctuality” in the third paragraph probably means
A. being on time B. being honest C. being patient D. being clean
43. The underlined word “so” in the last paragraph means that _____.
A. the answers were not right
B. she didn’t know the answers
C. the answers were correct
D. she would give the answers
44. In the author’s opinion, why didn’t Mrs. Pathak give the answers to the questions sometimes?
A. Because she didn’t like answering the questions.
B. Because she didn’t know the answers to the questions.
C. Because she wanted the students to find them out by themselves.
D. Because she thought the students knew the answers already.

In England, we look forward to our birthdays for 364 days a year! We invite special people to celebrate it with us.
The Presents
Presents are opened as soon as the children are awake. They can’t wait for the birthday presents later in the day!
The Cards
Friends and family send birthday cards. Sending birthday cards is a custom (风俗) that began in England about 100 years ago.
The Party
The birthday child will have a party to which friends and family are invited. Visitors to the party bring presents for the birthday child. The children play games such as musical chairs and pass the parcel (包裹).
The Cake
The birthday cake is decorated on a theme (主题). A candle for each year is lit and placed on top and the child blows out the candles making a wish. We don’t put objects inside the cake as stated on many websites.
The Bumps (碰撞)
It used to be traditional for the birthday child to have the bumps. Friends would hold the child by the legs and under the arms and lift the child up and down bumping them gently on the ground.

Walking around the small English city of Bath is like walking around a living museum. You can’t help breathing in the history and staring in wonder at the beautiful old buildings that line the streets.
Its name comes from the fact that it was built around a natural spring, now in the heart of the city. It was the Romans who, 2,000 years ago, built baths using the naturally hot water that came up from the ground. One of the major attractions of the city are the Roman Baths that still function as they did in the past.
Located in the southwest of the country, the city is surrounded by the green and pleasant hills England is famous for. The first people to live in the area were the original Britons(英国人), called the Celts. They were also attracted to the area by the springs.
One of English literature’s greatest figures, Jane Austen, lived in Bath from 1801 to 1806. She knew the city so well that she based two of her novels, “Northanger Abbey”(<<诺桑觉寺>>) and “Persuasion”(<<劝导>>), in the city.
Today Bath is protected as a World Heritage Site. It is a great place to visit to really get a feel of how an English city must have felt and looked like 200 years ago. You can wander around and lose yourself in the small cobbled alleyways(石子小巷) that lead from one historic site to another. Along any route you will find traditional English pubs(酒吧) serving real beer and good home-cooked food. No trip to England would be complete without a visit to Bath.
49.From this passage we know that the small English city of Bath is _____.
A. a living museum B. a place for bathing
C. a famous historical city D. a natural city
50.The original people of the city were _____.
A. the Romans B. Britons C. the French D. not mentioned in the passage
51.Both of Jane Austen’s novels _____.
A. were written in the city B. were set in the small city
C. were about the figures in this city D. were published in the city
52.The main idea of the last paragraph is that ____.
A. the city of Bath is a symbol of English historical cities
B. you can wander around and lose yourself in the small cobbled alleyways
C. serving real beer and good home-cooked food is and English tradition.
D. if you go to England , you need only to Bath

With a healthy image, handsome face and Japan’s coolest haircut, Takeshi Kaneshiro (金城武)is one of Asia’s most attractive stars.
When “Turn Left Turn Right” (<<向左走向右走>>) opens in Chinese cinemas next month, there’s no doubt the 29-year-old boy will get even more attention.
Takeshi stars as John, a lonely violin player who falls in love with a translator called Eve, played by Gigi Leung(梁咏琪).
Many of Takeshi’s fans like to copy his haircut, clothes and even his smile. But they will find it hard to copy the way he plays the violin in the movie. He impressed his director to Kei Fung(奇峰) by learning to play the violin in a few weeks.
This attitude to hard work is one of the reason Takeshi is such a good role model for young people. Like many young people, he values friendship more than anything else. “My best friends are my former schoolmates,” he once said, “We became close when we were at school and will be friends forever.”
Besides his good looks and hairstyle, he is well known for his healthy image. He started his acting career at the young age of 15 but, unlike other pop stars, he has rarely behaved badly. He stays away from drugs, alcohol and cigarettes. Violence, rude words and dirty jokes seldom appear in his movies.
“I hated foreign language classes when I was in school, but now I find speaking several languages helps me a lot in my career,” he said. For someone who only took up acting, Takeshi has come far. No doubt his star will rise even higher.
53.By the title, the writer means _____.
A. Takeshi always plays a perfect role in the film
B. Takeshi impressed his audience and fans with a perfect image
C. Takeshi acts perfectly in all the films
D. Takeshi can speak Chinese perfectly
54.According to the passage, which of the following is right?
A. Takeshi has become even more attractive because of the film “Turn Left Turn Right”.
B. Takeshi falls in love with Gigi Leung
C. Fans like to copy his life style including the way he smokes.
D. Takeshi will be mor
