We spent a day in the country and picked a lot of flowers. Our car was fullof flowersinside! On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and there my wife saw the bookshelf. It stood outside a furniture (家具) shop.“Buy it,”she said at once.“We'll carry ithome on the roof- rack (车顶架). I've always wanted one like that. " What could Ido? Tenminutes lateiwas twenty dollars poorer, and the bookshelf was tied on to the roof-rack.It was tall and narrow, quite heavy too. As it was getting darker, I drove slowly. Otherdrivers seemed more polite than usual that evening. The police even stopped traffic to letus through. Carrying furniture was a good idea. After a time my wife said, "There'sa longline of cars behind. Why don't they overtake （超车)?"Just at that time a police car did overtake. The two officers （警官）inside looked at us seriously when they went past. Butthen, with a kind smile they asked us to follow their car through the busy traffic. The police car stopped at our village church (教堂). One of the offices came to me.

"Right, sir, " he said. "Do you need any more help now?"

I didn't quite understand. "Thanks, officer, " I said. "You've been very kind. I livejust down the road. "

He was looking at our things: first at the flowers, then at the bookshelf. " Well,Well, " he said and laughed. "It's a bookshelf you've got there! We thought it was ...something else. " My wifebegan to laugh. Suddenly I understood why the police drove here. I smiled at the officer"Yes, it's a bookshelfbut thanks again.

10.根据以下材料，回答52-55题 Animals have different ways of protecting themselves against wintertime weather．Some animalsgrow heavy coats of fur or feathers，while others dig into the ground to find a warm wintertime home．Some animals spend the winter in a deep sleep because by going to sleep they avoid the time of theyear when food is scarce and the temperatures are low．Their sleep is known as hibernation. There is much about hibernation that puzzles scientists．For example，they are wondering how hibernation came into being．Some scientists have explored the possibility that animals release a chemicalthat starts them hibernating． One thing that scientists are certain about is that animals hibernate only when it is cold．Hibernation is a seasonal practice. Some animals that fall into a wintertime sleep are not true hibernators because they spend only apart of the cold season asleep．Bears，for example，can easily be awakened from their winter nap．They are not true hibernators． Sometimes it is difficult to determine whether a particular animal is a true hibernator．Forexample，some mice hibernate，but others do not．The same is true of bats．Some of them hibernate．Other do not．Hibernation is a seasonal practice．This means it．

11.One day in January, my uncle, my cousin and I decided to go hunting. We left by car in the afternoon. It was a Range Rover with four-wheel drive. It took us three hours to get there. After we arrived at 5:15 p.m., we fixed the tent, then made coffee and had a short rest. After that, we went hunting, using a falcon(猎鹰). We spent two hours without finding anything. On our way back to the camp, my cousin saw a rabbit. I removed the falcon’s bead cover and let go of the aggressive falcon. When the rabbit saw the falcon, it ran fast, but my falcon was a professional hunter. He flew up and came down to trick the rabbit. After two minutes, the rabbit was caught. We took back it to the camp to cook our dinner. We ate the delicious food, drank Arabic coffee, and sat around the fire talking until 10:30 p.m. We left the camp the next day at 7 o’clock in the morning. We went north. However,around 10:00 a.m. our car got stuck in the sand! We spent about three hours trying to pull out the car without any progress. Finally, we decided to walk. As it was hard for an old man or a young boy to walk more than 40km in the desert, I decided to get help myself. I took a bottle of water with me and started to walk south alone. I knew the way well, but it was a long way in the sand. I walked more than four hours without stopping. When I felt so tired and thirsty, I stopped to rest. I drank all the water and slept for around two hours. When I got up, it was dark. I continued to walk south.I was worried about my uncle and cousin. Suddenly, I met a Bedouin man who was riding his camel. He took me to his house. When I had had enough rest, I asked him to take me to the road where I found a car. it took me to the city to get help. I had one day to get back to my uncle and cousin.When I got back to them, they were so happy because I had gotten help and they were able to see me again.Why didn’t the three walk back together after the car got stuck in the sand?

Passage Two

Women are on the whole more verbal than men. They are good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning. while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual-spatial(

视空 )abilities. In fact, along with aggression these are the most commonly accepted difference between these sexes.

Words are tools for communicating with other people especially information about people. They are mainly social tools. Visual and spatial abilities are good for imagining and manipulating objects and for communicating information about them. Are these talents programmed into the brain? In some of the newest and most controversial research in neurophysiology( 神经生理学 ), it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain males are specialists while women are generalists.

But one knows that, if anything this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering is both Visual and spatial and it ’s true that there are relatively few women engineers. But women become just as skilled

as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car task that involve visual-spatial skills. They also do equally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves. We all know men for whom machines seem to be extensions of their identity.

（82）A woman is more likely to see her car, rifle or computer as a useful tool but not in itself fascinating.All the following tasks involve visual-spatial abilities EXCEPT____.

Passage Three

As a medium of exchange, money permits the separation of exchange into the two distinct acts of buying and selling. Hence producers who know they will be paid in money, can concentrate on finding the most suitable outlet for their goods, while buyers who will pay in money, can concentrate on finding the cheapest market for the wings they wish to purchase. (83) Specialization is encouraged, because people whose output is not a complete product but only a part of one can be paid an amount equivalent to their share of the product.

Another advantage of money is that it is a measure of value. In a barter economy it would be necessary to determine how many plates were worth one hundred weight of cotton, or how many pens should be exchanged for a ton of coal. (84) The process of establishing relative values would have to be undertaken for every act of exchange, according to what products were being offered against one another, and according to the two parties ’ desires and preferences.

Thirdly, money acts as store of wealth. It is difficult to imagine saving under a barter system. No one engaged on only one stage in the manufacture of a product could save part of his output, since he would be producing nothing complete. Most products deteriorate fairly rapidly, either physically or in value, as a result of long storage; even if storage were possible, the practice of storing products for years on end would involve 20 obvious disadvantages. If wealth could not be saved, or only with great difficulty, future needs could not be provided.If one had to save products instead of money, __________.
