阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
The town I live in is about to put cameras at all traffic lights to catch people who run red lights. It  31  me of how many people I’ve seen who take the yellow light as a signal to go faster. I also can’t  32  why people don’t move when the traffic light has turned green. Above all, there are those  33  situations in which someone doesn’t even  34  that the light is red, and just keeps going; that is how many accidents happen. All these situations make me  35  about the purpose of traffic lights.
However, it’s even more  36  to imagine letting people make their own  37  at a crowded traffic crossing. Who decides who goes next?  38  I guess I do like the idea of a system to  39   traffic. And I also do my best to  40  the traffic signals: to go, to be  41 , and to stop when I’m supposed to.
It occurs to me that my  42  have done much the same for me in terms of  43  me how to live. They have given me many  44  lights: to live in harmony with others to help others, to live with  45  and purpose. They have also given me some red lights so that my  46   doesn’t goastray(走入歧途): to watch my temper, and to control my desires. And there have been some yellow lights: to watch how much I drink, to keep control of my behavior, to  47   school regularly and work hard.
If I obey these signals, my life will be as  48  as it can. Just as I’m wise to pay attention to the traffic lights when I’m walking  49  the street, I’m wise to pay attention to the “life  50 ” given me by my parents.

C
Have you ever played the game Hot Potato? Jon Scieszka and a team of 13 popular children’s book authors are playing a writer’s version of the game, and are having a blast.
Here’s how it works. In The Exquisite Corpse Adventure, the “hot potato” is the story, and it is passed from one author to the next. Scieszka wrote the first chapter. Then he passed the story to another author Katherine Paterson. If Scieszka decides to introduce a roller-skating baby into the story, Paterson and the other contributing authors will have to decide what to do with the baby in later chapters. Every two weeks a new chapter, written by a different author, will be published on the Library of Congress’s read. Gov site. The high rate of hits has proved that Scieszka did not fail to make the readers laugh with his incredibly silly story.
“Working on The Exquisite Corpse Adventure was so much fun,” Scieszka says. “I got to write the first chapter so I could set up all these foolish traps for the other authors and make them have to write about clowns and ninjas(忍者).”
The story might be crazy, but all of the authors agreed that writing the story together was a whole lot of fun. “I started in the middle of the story,” author Steven Kellogg said, “That’s kind of fun. I got to read about everyone else’s characters and then brought them into the chapter that I was writing. It’s really good to think about other authors’ ideas and connect them with my own.”
You may wonder why the book is called The Exquisite Corpse Adventure. In fact Kellogg and the other authors are playing a game that is over 100 years old. Exquisite Corpse is actually the name of an old game in which players begin a story on a sheet of paper and pass it on to the next player to continue the tale. The game ends when someone finishes the story, which is then read aloud.
59. How is the game Hot Potato played according to the passage?
A.People make up the story about the “hot potato” one by one.
B.People throw the “hot potato” to hit one another.
C.People pass the “hot potato” from one person to the next.
D.People hit by the “hot potato” must tell a funny story.
60. We can infer from the passage that________.
A.it’s the first time such a game of writing has ever been played
B.the story hasn’t been finished yet
C.the clues of the story have been decided by Kellogg
D.every chapter will be online for two weeks
61.Kellogg thinks the game is fun because________.
A.the story is very silly and crazy
B.he writes the main part of the story
C.he could continue the story by sharing it with other authors
D.there are so many different characters in the story
62.The last paragraph is mainly about________.
A.how the game ended           B.when the game stared
C.how the book was named       D.how the Exquisite corpse worked

Extreme sports and the movie Lord of the Rings are the two things that come to mind when one talks abut New Zealand today. But for wine lovers across the world, New Zealand has a completely different meaning.
It’s a long narrow country, but its vineyards (葡萄园)are mostly around three regions, Gisborne, Hawkes Bay and Marlborough.
It was not until the 1980s that New Zealand wines drew the attention of the world with what is now a fashionable classic wine: Cloudy Bay. It was snapped up as it appeared on wine menus in Hong Kong restaurants during the early 1990s. This success was followed by the growing popularity of a wide range of wines from other New Zealand estates(庄园)such as Esk Vally, Villa Maria and Grove Mill. Since then, several other wine growing regions in other countries have tried to copy the New Zealand style without much success.
The New Zealanders were good at white wines right from their early days, but their red wines, too, were catching the fancy of the drinking public. One example of just how fast and sure that happened is Goldwater Estate in Waiheke Island. The little island, which is just a 35-minute ferry ride from Auckland, had only 13 wineries ten years ago. Kim and Jeanette Goldwater set it up as the Goldwater holiday home, with wine making as a hobby, in 1982. But demand soon made them turn that hobby into a business.
Encouraged by family and friends, they decided to take their wine production a step further and entered the commercial market. In 1991, they took their wines to the International Wine Competition in New York and won a Gold Medal.
67. What does the author mean by saying “But for wine lovers across the world, New Zealand has a completely different meaning” in Paragraph I ?
A.New Zealand today is different from what it was in the past.
B.Different people have different opinions on New Zealand’s sports and films.
C.New Zealand is famous for good wines to wine lovers in the world.
D.New Zealand is well known for is sports and movies.
68. Goldwater Estate in Waiheke Island is given as an example show that________.
A.Goldwater Estate is not very far from Auckland
B.Goldwater won great success as a holiday home to New Zealanders
C.the red wines of the New Zealanders are on their way to success
D.encouragement from family and friends can lead to gold medals
69. The underlined phrase “snapped up” in Paragraph 3 most probably means “________”
A.refused        B.removed       C.sold out       D.wiped out
70. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Vineyards can be seen everywhere across the long narrow country.
B.New Zealand wines first won their place in the world with Cloudy Bay.
C.Kim and Jeanette Goldwater took wine making as a hobby at first.
D.Wine production from Goldwater was popular with the drinking public.

Save the Animals
Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history.
Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers(羽毛), for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.
Why should people care? Because we need animals. And because once they are gone, there will never be any more.
Animals are more than just beautiful or interesting. They are more than just a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.
For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks (鹰), the farmers’ stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice. With no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice multiplied (繁殖) quickly.
Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger.
Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws prohibit the killing of any animal or plant on the danger list.

64. What does the underlined word “prohibit” mean in the last paragraph?

B
In 1605 some Englishmen planned to kill their king, James I, because they thought he was a bad man. They knew that on November 5th the King would go to the House of Lords(上议院)to talk with his nobles.
The men rented(租赁)a building next to the House of Lords. They dug through a wall and put many barrels of gunpowder in a cellar(地下室) of the House of Lords. They chose a man called Guy Fawkes to set fire to the gunpowder but something went wrong with their plan. One of the men had a relative who was coming to the House of Lords to meet the King. He warned his relative to stay at home. The relative spoke to other nobles and soon the King heard about the danger. Soldiers searched the cellars and found the gunpowder on November 4th ,Guy Fawkes was caught and killed.
Every year, on November 5th, English children remember Guy Fawkes. They collect old boxes, newspapers and rubbish so that they can make a big fire, which they call a bonfire. They put a pole in the middle of the fire and tie a “guy” to it. “The guy” is the figure of Guy Fawkes and is made of old clothes and paper. Sometimes they push their “guy” round the streets in a cart and ask for money so that they can buy fireworks.
In the evening they light the bonfire and let off many fireworks: crackers, rockets, bangers and many other kinds. November 5th is an exciting day for children in England. It is always a busy day for firemen and for hospitals. Sparks from the bonfires sometimes set fire to fences,  trees or houses. Every year children are injured when fireworks exploded unexpectedly.
