I am one of those unfortunate people who have a very -17- sense of direction and I may have visited a place time after time but I still manage to get- 18- on my way there. When I was young I was -19- shy that I never dared ask complete strangers -20- and so I used to wander round in circles and hope that by some -21- I would get to the spot I was heading for. I am -22- too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive replies that puzzle me. Often people do not like to admit that they do not know their hometown and will insist-23- telling you the way even if they do not know it; others, -24- are anxious to prove that they know their hometown very well, will give you a long -25- of directions which you cannot possibly hope to remember; and- 26- others do not seem to be able to tell between their left and their right and you find in the end that you are going in the-27-direction to that -28- you should be going. If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I always tell them that I am a stranger to the town in order to avoid -29- them wrong directions, but even this can have embarrassing令人难堪的results. Once I was on my way to work-30- I was stopped by a man who asked me -31- I would direct him to the Sunlight Building. I gave my-32- reply, but I had not walked on a few steps when I -33- that he had asked for directions to my office building. However, at this point, I decided it was too late to turn back and search him out of the crowd behind me, as I was going to meet with someone at the office and I did not want to keep him -34-.Imagine my embarrassment when my secretary showed in the-35- man who had asked for directions to my office and his astonishment when he recognized me as the person he had asked. 16.

Any large hospital will tell you the number of accidents that happen in the home is almost the same as those on the road. I dont pretend to be an expert, but Ive thought a lot about how and why these accidents happen and what we can do to prevent them. One of the commonest and most dangerous causes of home accidents is wrong and careless use of electrical equipment设备. People will continue to use a loose plug or pull out a plug without first turning off the power. In spite of warnings, one will carry an electric heater电炉into the bathroom when he is going to have a bath. Sometimes one forgets to cut off the power before mending a lamp or some thing else. All this will cause accidents. So the rule about anything that works by electricity is: Switch off before you touch anything and dont pretend you know when you actually dont. If youve got children in the house, its always best to keep medicines of any kind out of their reach. Otherwise, they may be taken for candies or a new kind of drink. When there are older people living with you, you have to take particular care in a number of ways in order to make them safe and happy. Fire, of course, is always a risk. So, remember not to dry clothes in front of fires, or leave stoves in the middle of rooms where they can easily be knocked over. And dont forget to keep the children away from fire. Smoking, too, may cause fire. So youd better give it up. Safety First may mean a little more time and care, but it may save you a lot of trouble. 36. The writer thinks the reason why there are so many accidents in our homes is that we are . A less careful in our homes than in a car B more careful in our homes than in a car C as careful in our homes as in a car D not so careful in a car as in our homes 37.One of the most dangerous and most common causes of home accidents is . A continuing to use loose plugs B taking a bath with an electric heater in the room C mending a lamp without cutting off the power D using electrical equipment in an improper way 38.The writer advises you about the use of electrical equipment. A to appear as if you know everything B to pretend that you dont know anything C to pretend that you know everything D not to think you know everything 39.Its best to keep medicines in places that children cant . A get on Bget to Cget in Dget over 40.One way to prevent fires at home is to . A leave stoves in the middle of the rooms B dry clothes near stoves C tell children to stay away from fire D smoke away from fires （ B ）How Can a Small Stamp Be Worth $16,800? Any mistake made in the printing of a stamp raises its value（价值）to stamp collectors. A mistake on a two-penny（便士，英国辅币） stamp has made it worth a million and a half times its face value.Do you think it impossible? Well, it is true. And this is how it happened. The mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in the former British colony（前英殖民地） of Mauritius, a small island in the Indian Ocean. In 1847 an order（订货单） for stamps was sent to London. Mauritius was about to become the fourth country in the world to put out stamps. Before the order was filled and the stamps arrived from England, a big dance was planned by the commander-in-chief of all the armed forces on the island. The dance would be held in his house and letters of invitation would be sent to all the important people in Mauritius. Stamps were badly needed to post the letters. Therefore, an islander, who was a good printer, was told to copy the pattern of the stamps. He carelessly put the words Post Office instead of post Paid, two words seen on stamps at that time, on the several hundred that he printed. Today, there are only twenty-six of these misprinted stamps left-fourteen One-penny Reds and twelve Two-penny Blues. Because there are so few Two-penny Blues and because of their age, collectors have paid as much as $ 16,800 for one of them. 41.The mistake on a two-penny stamp has made A a lot of trouble for the post office. B Mauritius the fourth country to put out stamps. C it worth half a million times its face value. D it worth as much as sixteen thousand and eight hundred dollars. 42.When was the mistake in printing made? It was made A not long ago. B in the eighteenth century. C in the nineteenth century. D after some stamps arrived from London. 43.In 1847 most countries of the world were A not yet using stamps. B printing stamps in Mauritius. C printing their own stamps. D collecting valuable stamps. 44.Why did Mauritius print some stamps too? Because A London stamps were not well printed. B London would not print them. C invitations to a big dance had to be posted quickly. D Mauritius had a very good printer. 45.Post Paid means _. A the same as Post Office. B the Post Office is the place to buy stamps. C money has been paid for the stamp. D the letter must be posted C I had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric怪僻的farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I hadnt the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go . It had been snowing heavily that day and I didnt know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died.

I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn厩.I wouldnt leave her out in the cold! he said. Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door .He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. She was such a good cow!
