Indeed ,the Egyptians began sending letters from about 2000 BC, as did the Chinese a thousand years later. Of course ,modern postal services now are much more developed and faster ,depending as they do on cars and planes for delivery .Yet they are still too slow for some people to send urgent documents（紧急文件）and letters. The invention of the fax（传真）machine increased the speed of delivering documents even more .When you send a fax ,you are sending a copy of a piece of correspondence to someone by telephone service .It was not until the early 1980s that such a service was developed enough for businesses to be able to fax documents to each other. The fax service is still very much in use when copies of documents require to be sent ,but ,as a way of fast correspondence, it has been largely taken the place of by email. Email is used to describe messages sent from one computer user to another. There are advantages and disadvantages with emails. If you send someone and email, then he will receive it extremely quickly. Normal postal services are rather slow as far as speed of delivery is concerned. However ,if you write something by email ,which you might later regret ,and send it immediately ,there is no chance for second thoughts. At least ,if you are posting a letter you have to address and seal（封）the envelope and take it to the post box .There is plenty of time to change your mind. The message is think before you email! 41．We can learn from the text that . A．email is less popular than the fax service B．the postal service has over the years become faster C．the postal service has over the years become slower D．the fax service has a history as long as the postal service does 42．It can be inferred from the text that . A．the fax service had been fully developed by the 1980s B．letters have been used in China for about 1,000 years C．the fax machine was invented after the 1980s D．letters have been used in Egypt for about 2,000 years 43．In the last paragraph ,the writer mentions “think before you email” to show that . A．you may regret if you don’t seal your envelope B．you may regret before you send something by email C．you’d better not send your email in a hurry D．you need plenty of time to send an email 44．The text mainly deals with . A．the progress in correspondence B．the advantage of fax machines C．the advantage of emails D．the invention of fax machines B LONDON Thursday July 26 (Reuters)—Eddy missed his girlfriend Anna so much he flew back to Britain from Australia to propose（求婚）to her. The problem is she did the same in the opposite direction. He and Anna even managed to miss each other when they sat in the same airport waiting room in Singapore at the same time to wait for connecting flights. Anna ,hearbroken when she arrived at Eddy’s Sydney flat to find he had flown to London ,told The Times: “It was as though someone was playing a cruel joke on us.” “He is the most romantic person I have ever known .I think our problem is that we are both quite impulsive（冲动的）people. We are always trying to surprise each other.” After an 11,000-mile flight across the globe, she was greeted by Eddy’s astonished roommate asking what she was doing there. Eddy, a 27-year-old engineer ,had taken a year off to travel round Australia .But he was missing Anna ,a 26-year-old secretary, so much he got a job on a Sydney building site（工地）and started saving for a surprise. He then flew home to Britain and went to her flat armed with an engagement（订婚）ring, wine and flowers. “I really missed Anna and I’d been thinking about her all the time. I was so excited when she phoned me from Australia,” he said. Eddy then asked Anna to marry him on the phone. “I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry but I accepted,” she said. Anna was given a tour of Sydney by Eddy’s friends before going back home .Eddy had to stay in Britain for two weeks because he could not change his ticket. 45．What does the last sentence of the first paragraph tell us? A．Anna flew to Britain from Australia to marry him. B．Anna flew to Australia from Britain to marry him. C．Anna flew to Britain from Australia to propose to him.

C If you’re like most students , you probably read both at home and outside your home: perhaps somewhere on your schoolyard and maybe even at work during your breaks. Your reading environment can have a great effect on your understanding ,so give some thought to how you can create（营造）or choose the right reading environments. The right environment allows you to stay alert（专注的）and to keep all of your attention on the text, especially when it is both interesting and difficult. When you’re at home ,you can usually create effective conditions for reading. You might want to choose a particular place— a desk or table, for example –where you always read .Make sure the place you choose is well lighted ,and sit in a chair that requires you to sit straight. Reading in a chair that’s too soft and comfortable is likely to make you sleepy! Keep your active reading tools (pens ,markers ,notebooks or paper) and a dictionary close at hand. Before you sit down for a reading period ,try to reduce all possible interruptions. Turn off your phone, the television, and the radio. Tell your family members or roommates that you’ll be busy for a while .If necessary, put a “Do not disturb” sign on your door! The more interruptions you must deal with while you read, the harder it will be to keep your attention on the task at hand. 49．The author believes that the right reading environment __________. A．helps readers a little in their reading tasks B．helps readers a lot in their reading tasks C．can only be created at one’s home D．can only be created outside one’s home 50．Which type of the following interruptions is mentioned in the text? A．Dictionaries. B．Paper. C．Phone calls. D．Notebooks. 51．What would be the best title for the text? A．How to Read Fast B．Creating an Effective Reading Environment C．The Ways to Reduce Possible Interruptions D．What to Read D In many countries the standard of living enjoyed by their people has increased rapidly in recent years. Sadly, not everyone in these countries is so fortunate and many people in rich countries are homeless. The reasons for homelessness are various, but poverty(贫穷) is undoubtedly one of the main causes. The homeless people may have become jobless and then been unable to pay their rent and so no longer have a roof over their heads. Often, the fact that unemployed people get help from the government prevents this from happening, but not always. Some homeless people are mentally ill and have no one to look after them. Some are young people who, for one reason or another, have left home and have nowhere to live. Many of them have had a serious disagreement with their parents and have left home, choosing to go to a city and live on the streets. Sometimes they have taken such action because they have been unable to get on with a step-parent. Many homeless people get into the habit of begging to get enough money to stay alive, but many of the general public refuse to give anything to beggars. Often they are moved on by the police, being accused(指控), whether rightly or wrongly, of forceful begging. There are many who disrespect homeless people. Some cynics(愤世嫉俗的人) declare that homeless people choose to live the life which they lead. But who would willingly choose to live in a shop doorway, under a bridge or in a cardboard box? 52．According to the text, what causes some people to be homeless? A．Lack of money. B．The increased standard of living. C．No government help. D．Agreement with their parents. 53．It can be inferred from the text that _________. A．the homeless are willing to live under a bridge or in a cardboard box B．you will not find homeless people in countries with a high standard of living C．the mentally ill live on the streets because they want the company of other home- less people D．the unemployed who receive help may still be among the homeless 54．In paragraph 2, “a roof over their heads” most probably means _________. A．a cap B．a car C．a home D．a covering 55．The author thinks that the homeless people are . A．pitiful B．troublesome C．respectable D．admirable E Among rich countries, people in the United States work the longest hours. They work much longer than in Europe. This difference is quite surprising because productivity per hour worked is the same in the United States as it is in France, Spain and Germany, and it is growing at a similar speed. In most countries and at most times in history, as people have become richer they have chosen to work less. In other words they have decided
