题型：不详难度：来源：
Dear Sir,
I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport. Two buses travel along the line: the number 49 and number 16. But by the time the number 16 bus gets to Souk Road, it is always full, so I can’t get on it. I have to wait for the number 49, because sometimes there are empty seats on it.
The timetable says that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus every day?
The regulations（规章）say that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. Why do the half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop?
The regulations say that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers（乘客）and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport. I counted（数）the other passengers as they got off. There were 129 of them.
It is clear that our bus companies break the regulations and think little of their passengers. Can nothing be done to make your service（服务）better?
A. a message B. a talk C. a story D. a letter

| A．the bus service was bad |
| B．no passengers took their buses |
| C．no bus passed Souk Road |
| D．the writer was always the first to get on the bus |

Three days later, a letter 18 . It asked me to see the 19 at Croydon. It proved to be a(n) 20 journey —a train to Croydon station, a ten-minute bus ride and then a walk of 21 a quarter of a mile. As a result I arrived there, feeling too hot to be nervous. Clearly, the principal 22 opened the door. He was 23 and round.
“The school” he said, “has a group of twenty-four boys between seven and thirteen.”
I should have to teach all the 24 except art, which he taught himself. I should have to divide the class into 25 groups and teach them at three different 26 , and I was not 27 at the thought of teaching maths —a subject which I didn’t do very well in at school. It was 28 that I had to teach them on Saturday afternoon 29 most of my friends would be 30 themselves at that time.

Sometimes a worker stands in the lift. He or she operates it up and down. In modern lifts there is no worker. The people walk in. They know what floor they want. They push a button and the lift goes to that floor. It is all very fast and easy.
Lifts are very important to us. Why? Think about a tall building. Maybe it has twenty floors. Maybe it has fifty or more. Who can walk up all the stairs? Maybe people can climb them one time. Can someone climb thirty floors to an office every day? Can small children walk up to their room on the twenty-fourth floor? Can their mother and father carry food up all those stairs? Of course not.
We can have high buildings because we have lifts. We could not have all the beautiful tall buildings in the world without lifts. They are really wonderful.
小题1:Which of the following is true?
| A．A modern lift has no buttons. |
| B．A modern lift has a worker to operate it. |
| C．A modern lift can go up and down with no worker in it. |
| D．A modern lift knows what floor people want. |
| A．ask for help | B．open the door of the lift |
| C．ring the bell | D．push the right button |
| A．they have tall buildings |
| B．they can"t walk up and down |
| C．old people and children need them |
| D．lifts are wonderful |
For hundreds of years after that there were few inventions that had as much effect(影响) as the wheel. Then in the early 1800’s the world started to change. There was little unknown land left in the world. People didn’t have to explore(探测) much anymore. They began to work instead to make life better.
In the second half of the 19th century many great inventions were made. Among them were the camera, the light and the radio. These all became a big part of our life today.
The first part of the 20th century saw more great inventions. The helicopter in 1909. Movies with sound in 1926. The computer in 1928. And jet planes in 1930. This was also a time when a new material was first made. Nylon came in 1935. It changed the kind of clothes people wear.
By this time most people had a very good life, Man has a desire to explore again, the world was known to man but the stars were not. Man began looking for ways to go into space. Russia made the first step. Then the United States took a step. Since then other countries, including China and Japan, have made their steps into space.
In 1969 man took his biggest step from the earth. Americans first walked on the moon. This is certainly just a beginning thought. New inventions will someday allow us to do things we have never yet dreamed of.

A. why cars were very important
