阅读理解。    Between now and then many changes will take place in this century. But what will the changes be? The
population is growing fast. There will be many people in the world and most of them will live longer than
people live now.
    Computers will be much smaller and more useful, and there will be at least one in every home. And
computer studies will be one of the important subjects in school then.
    People will work fewer hours than they do now, and they will have more free time for sports, watching
TV and travel. Traveling will be much cheaper and easier. And many more people will go to other countries
for holidays.
    There will be changes in our food, too. More land will be used for building new towns and houses for
all the people. Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive. Maybe
no one will eat it every day. Instead they will eat more fruit and vegetables. Maybe people will be healthier.
Work in the future will be different, too. Dangerous and hard work will be done by robots. Because of this,
many people will not have enough work to do. This will be a problem. 1. In the future there will be ______. [     ]

   The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly
70% of the earth"s surface (表面) is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water.
Man can only use the other 3% the fresh water from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources (源泉).
And we can not even use all of that. Even worse, some of it has been made dirty.
    However, as things stand today, this fresh water is still enough for us. But our need for water is becoming
larger and larger quickly-almost day by day. We should take steps to do with this problem now and in this
way we can get away from a serious world-wide water shortage (缺乏) later on.
    We all have to learn how to stop wasting (浪费) our valuable water. One of the first steps is to develop
(开发) ways of reusing it. Today in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer
system(下水道). From there it returns to sea or runs into underground places. But even if every large city
reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we"d have to do to make use of sea water in the world
is to remove the salt. If we take these we will be in no danger of drying up.
1. The world is thirsty for water because ___.
[     ]
A. man has not got enough food to eat
B. we haven"t got enough fresh water
C. only 70% of the earth"s surface is water
D. more water is sent into sewer system
2. The underlined word "valuable" means ___ and ___.
[     ]
A. much, salty
B. fresh, enough
C. dear, useful
D. clean, helpful
3. What should we do if we want to have enough fresh water? ___.
[     ]
A. Make full use of the sea water
B. Carry salt water into lakes or rivers
C. Try to save the fresh water as much as possible
D. Do our best to use the water again
4. The best but the most difficult way to solve (解决) the water problem of the world is to ___.
[     ]
A. remove the salt from sea water
B. make the water in cities clean
C. take the water from underground
D. make the need for water smaller
5. What is the best title for this passage? ___.
[     ]
A. The Importance of the Water
B. The World"s Water Problem
C. The Thirsty World
D. Fresh Water and Sea Water

    What is a supermarket? In the dictionary, a supermarket is a large self-service department store. Some
supermarkets have two floors. When you enter such a supermarket,an elevator (电梯) will take you to the
second floor. Here you can buy things such as CDs, pens, clothes, TVs and refrigerator after you have
collected the things you want to buy on the second floor, you can go downstairs to the first floor where
food and drinks are sold (被卖到). You can also buy fresh fruit,vegetables and meat on this floor. 
     People like to go shopping in the supermarket. Here are some of the reasons (原因).
    *First, the prices are reasonable (合理的). The prices are lower than these in special shops and you can
choose whatever you want, without going place to place.
    ★Second the service is great. You can walk around freely and no one will ask you, "What can I do for
you?" If you can"t find anything, just ask a service person and he or she will tell you where it is at once.
    ★Third, the quality is good. If you get home and find the food bad, you can return it and they will say
sorry and change it for you.
    ★Nowadays many people don"t have much time to walk from one shop to another, so people choose to
go to the supermarket in order to save time and money.
    ★What"s more, if you don"t want to buy anything,you can just come and look around in the supermarket.
It"s a good place to have a walk.

阅读短文,根据要求完成下面各小题。
     In Britain you are allowed to drive a car when you are seventeen. You have to get a special two-year driving
license before you can start. When you are learning, someone with a full license always has to be in the car with
you because you aren"t allowed to drive the car on the road alone. You don"t have to go to a driving school …a
friend can teach you. 3. The person with you isn"t allowed to take the money for the lesson unless he"s got a
teacher"s license
.
     Before you are allowed to have a full license, you have to take a driving test. You can take a test in your
own car, but it has to be fit for the road. In the test you have to drive round for about half an hour and then
answer a few questions. If you don"t pass the test, you are allowed to take it again a few weeks later if you
want to. In 1970 a woman passed her fortieth test after 212 driving lessons. When you"ve passed your test, you
don"t have to take it again, and you are allowed to go on driving as long as you like. 4. Britain"s oldest driver
was a man who drove in 1974 at the age of 100
.
     Before 1904 everyone was allowed to drive, even children. Then from 1904 car drivers had to have a license.
But they didn"t have to take a test until 1935. On the early days of car driving, before 1878, cars weren"t allowed
to go faster than four miles an hour, and someone had to lead the car with a red flag.
