As soon as I got on the train, I was taken along and introduced to the rest of the party. They were three Irish girls, a Scottish girl and Tony, our tour leader.

When I got into the washroom, goodness-how 6 it was! It had a tiny sink(水槽), and the 7 was cold. When I wanted to wash my 8 , it was almost impossible to keep my 9 on one foot while I lifted the other the water. It was quite a 10 ,because the floor was very wet ,and the soap and all my bits and 11 kept falling off the sink because the train was 12 so much.
My first night on the train was 13 ,as I could not sleep, and when we arrived at Munich the next morning, I felt rather 14 .

16 to a compartment with a couchette(卧铺).He took me along to a 17 Austrian guard who put two other girls and me together in the same compartment.

三、阅读理解（共20小题，每题2分，满分40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。

A
In some ways, the United States has made some progress. Fires no longer destroy 18,000 buildings as they did in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, or kill half a town of 2,400 people, as they did the same night in Peshtigo, Wisconsin. Other than the Beverly Hill Supper Club fire in Kentucky in 1977, it has been four decades since more than 100 Americans died in a fire.
But even with such successes, the United States still has one of the worst fire death rates in the world. Safety experts say the problem is neither money nor technology, but the indifference of a country that just will not take fires seriously enough.
American fire departments are some of the world’s fastest and best-equipped. They have to be. The United States has twice Japan's population, and 40 times as many fires. It spends far less on preventing fires than on fighting them. And American fire -safety lessons are aimed almost entirely at children, who die in large numbers in fires but who, against popular beliefs, start very few of them.
Experts say the error is an opinion that fires are not really anyone's fault. That is not so in other countries, where both public education and the law treat fires as either a personal failing or a crime. Japan has many wood houses; of the 48 fires in world history that burned more than 10,000 buildings, Japan has had 27. Punishment for causing a big fire can be as severe as life imprisonment.
In the United States, most education dollars are spent in elementary schools. But, the lessons are aimed at too limited a number of people; just 9 percent of all fire deaths are caused by children playing with matches.
The United States continues to depend more on technology than laws or social pressure. There are smoke detectors in 85 percent of all homes. Some local building laws now require home sprinklers (喷水装置). New heaters and irons shut themselves off if they are tipped.
1．The reason why so many Americans die in fires is that _____.
A．they took no interest in new technology
B．they did not pay great attention to preventing fires
C．they showed indifference to fighting fires
D．they did not spend enough money on fire equipment
2．It can be inferred from the passage that______.
A．fire safety lessons should not be aimed only at American children
B．American children have not received enough education of fire safety lessons
C．Japan is better equipped with fire equipment than the United States
D．America’s large population leads to more fires
3．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A．There has been no great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that leads to high death rate.
B．There have been several great fires in the USA in recent 40 years that lead to high death
rate.
C．There has been only one great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that led to high death rate.
D．The fire in Kentucky in 1977 made only a few people killed.

B
Nuclear power’s danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be described in one word; radiation.
Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected by human senses. It can’t be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we can’t detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. Similarly, we can’t sense radioactivity without a radiation detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human being and other living things.
At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells in important organs. But even the lowest levers can do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright. Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in an unusual way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.
This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the knowledge of the person at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated(放射治疗) and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or easy to get serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.
Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth.
4．According to the passage, the danger of nuclear power lies in _________.
A．nuclear mystery B．radiation detection
C．radiation level D．nuclear radiation
5．Radiation can lead to serious results even at the lowest level_________.
A．when it kills few cells
B．if it damages few cells
C．though the damaged cells can repair themselves
D．unless the damaged cells can reproduce themselves
6．Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can __________.
A．kill large numbers of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediately
B．damage cells which may grow into cancer years later
C．affect the healthy growth of our younger generation
D．lead to all of the above results
7．Which of the following can be best inferred from the passage?
A．The importance of protection from radiation cannot be overemphasized.
B．The mystery about radiation remains unsolved.
C．Cancer is mainly caused by radiation.
D．Radiation can hurt those who do not know about its danger.

C
Today is the date of that afternoon in April a year ago when I first saw the strange and attractive doll in the window of Abe Sheftel’s toy shop on Third Avenue near Fifteenth Street, just around the corner from my office, where the plate on the door reads. Dr Samuel Amory. I remember just how it was that day: the first sign of spring floated across the East River, mixing with the soft – coal smoke from the factories and the street smells of the poor neighbourhood. As I turned the corner on my way to work and came to Sheftel’s, I was made once more known of the poor collection of toys in the dusty window, and I remembered the coming birthday of a small niece of mine in Cleveland, to whom I was in the habit of sending small gifts. Therefore, I stopped and examined the window to see if there might be anything suitable, and looked at the collection of unattractive objects – a red toy fire engine, some lead soldiers, cheap baseballs, bottles of ink, pens, yellowed envelopes, and advertisements for soft – drinks. And thus it was that my eyes finally came to rest upon the doll stored away in one corner, a doll with the strangest, most charming expression on her face. I could not wholly make her out, due to the shadows and the film of dust through which I was looking, but I was sure that a deep impression had been made upon me as though I had run into a person, as one does sometimes with a stranger, with whose personality one is deeply impressed.
8．What made an impression on the author?
A．The doll’s unusual face. B．The collection of toys.
C．A stranger he met at the store. D．The beauty and size of the doll.
9．Why does the author mention his niece?
A．She likes dolls. B．The doll looks like her.
C．She lives near Sheftel’s D．He was looking for a gift for her.
10．Why did the writer go past Sheftel’s?
A．He was on his way to school
B．He was looking for a present for his niece.
C．He wanted to buy some envelopes.
D．None of the above is right.
11．The story takes place in the .
A．early summer B．early spring C．midsummer D．late spring
