But he was missing Anna, a 26-year-old secretary, so much that he got a job on a Sydney building site and started saving for a surprise.He then flew home to Britain and went to her flat armed with an engagement ring, wine and flowers.I really missed Anna and Id 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.

By their great effort, men, such as Shakleton, Scott, and Amundsen, caused a new continent to appear from the shadows. The heroic age, more than a century old, is already passing. Modern science and inventions are revolutionizing. The future journeys into these icy wastes will probably depend on motor vehicles rather than on the dogs that earlier discoverers used.Few realize that this Antarctic continent is almost equal in size to South America, and large field of work waits for geographers and explorers. The coasts of this continent remain to be accurately charted. Once their labors are pleted, it will be possible to prospect the vast resources, like copper, coal, uranium, and many other ores(礦石). Such discoveries will open an era of practical exploitation of the Antarctic wastes.The polar darkness which hides this continent for the six winter months will be defeated by huge batteries of light, and make possible the establishing of airfields for the future intercontinental air services by making these areas as light as day.The climate is not likely to offer a serious problem, for the explorer Admiral Byrd has shown that the climate is possible even for men pletely untrained for expeditions into those frozen wastes. Byrd even makes sure that it is probably the most healthy climate in the world, for the cold of thousands of years has sterilized(消毒) this continent to make it absolutely germ-free. So ordinary and extraordinary sickness and diseases from which man suffers in other zones with different climates are unknown here.Plans are already on foot to set up permanent bases on the seashores of this continent, and what so few years ago was regarded as a dead continent now promises to be a most active center of human life.28. When did man discover the Antarctic?A. In 100 BC. B. In the 21st century.C. About 100 years ago. D. At the beginning of the 19th century.29. What does the author say about the Antarctic exploration in the heroic age?A. It didnt take explorers much effort.B. It might depend on the dogs rather than motors.C. It began in the aid of advanced science and technology.D. It proved that the Antarctic was the most interesting spot.30. What do we know about the Antarctic?A. Its climate makes people suffer from many diseases. B. Its exploration doesnt require great courage.C. It has been suitable for motor vehicle traffic. D. It can have many metals and minerals.31. What is being planned for the Antarctic continent?A. Setting up some permanent bases on the shores. B. Building roads for walking along the seashores.C. Setting up several active business centers. D. Mapping the coast and whole continent.DWhen a rather dirty, poorly dressed person kneels at your feet and puts out his hands to beg for a few coins, do you hurry on, not knowing what to do, or do you feel sad and hurriedly hand over some money?What should our attitude to beggars be? There can be no question that the world is full of terribly sad stories. It must be terrible to have no idea where our next meal is going to e from. It seems cruel not to give some money to beggars.Certainly, most of the worlds great religions order us to be open-hearted and share what we have with those less fortunate than ourselves. But has the world changed? Maybe what was morally right in the old days, when one knew exactly who in the village had suffered misfortune and needed help, is no longer the best idea. Quite a few people will not give to beggars. Let us look at their arguments.First, some believe that many city beggars dress up on purpose to look pitiable and actually make a good living from begging. Giving to beggars only encourages this sort of evil. Secondly, there is the worry that the money you give will be spent on beer, wine or drugs. Thirdly, there is the opinion that there is no real excuse for begging. One might be poor, but that is no reason for losing ones sense of pride and self-dependence.Related to this is the opinion that the problem should be dealt with by the government rather than ordinary people. Some people think beggars should go to the local government department and receive help.It is hard to e to any final conclusion: there are various cases and we must deal with them differently. A few corns can save a life in some situations, and even if the money is wasted, that does not take away the moral goodness of the giver.32. What is mainly discussed in the passage? A. Moral deeds of people. B. Religious activities of the church. C. Moral goodness of the giver. D. Arguments on giving to beggars.33. What can we infer from the sentence But has the world changed? in the third paragraph? A. People no longer know who suffers misfortune in the village. B. Some people will not do what was morally right in the past. C. We dont meet with those who need help any more. D. Now it is the governments duty to help the beggars.34. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage? A. Some people dress up to pretend to be beggars. B. Some beggars use the money to buy drugs. C. Some beggars want money to help their children go to school. D. Some beggars have no excuse for begging.35. In the last paragraph, the writer thinks that it is hard to e to any final conclusion, because .A. the cases can be so different B. there are so many beggarsC. there is so much money wasted D. there are so many different arguments第二節(jié) （共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。When I was a child, I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city. We lived on a farm. Especially in the winter we wear quite out off from the outside world. As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However, 36 37 It costs so much to go out, not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution. I suffer from a kind of throat illness, and the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. 38 Although I have a car, I seldom use it because of the traffic jams. One choice is to go by bicycle, but that can be quite dangerous. 39 First, there is so much to do in the city, whatever your taste in culture or entertainment. Besides, there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position. Finally, if you like shopping, the variety of goods is very surprisingand, what is more, shops are often only a short walk away.Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is, when you are in your teens or twenties. However, as you get older, the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. 40 A. One big disadvantage is money.B. Of course there are advantages.C. Besides, I was used to the city life.D. Then there is the problem of traveling round.E. I can remember the life on the farm forever.F. I certainly hope to move back to the countryside soon.G. I soon discovered that my life has its disadvantage too.第三部分 語言知識運(yùn)用（共兩節(jié)，滿分45分）第一節(jié) 完形填空（共20小題；每小題1. 5分，滿分30分）閱讀下面短文，從短文后各題所給的A、B、C和D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中，選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。One man was to meet his wife downtown and spend some time shopping with her.
