Traffic lights are red, yellow and green. They are very important signals (信号). Traffic lights are usually placed at busy street corners to help control traffic. Sometimes, they are on streets near schools and shops, too. Most young children are taught what each of the colored lights means, so everybody can stay safe:
The first traffic signals were used for trains. The signals were put alongside railway tracks (轨道). The color red was used to mean “stop” because it warned people of danger. A red light was also the easiest color to see from a distance. Train drivers could see the red “stop” light ahead and had enough time to slow down and stop their trains. A green light was used to mean “take care” and a white light meant “go”.
However, there were many dangerous accidents on the train tracks. Some train drivers thought a star shining in the night sky was a white light that meant “go”. So the signals were swapped. The “go” light was changed to green and the “take care” light was changed to white.
During these times, people travelled by train or in carts pulled by horses. Years later, when cars were built, people began to drive them because they could travel much faster than horses. However, the road rules for drivers were not very clear and many people were hurt crossing the roads. Yellow warning signs had to be placed beside the roads to remind drivers to take care and allow people to cross safely.
Today, towns and cities all over the world have traffic lights. Red and green lights match the signals used on the railways. Yellow lights are easy to see, so they are used to warn drivers that they should slow down and prepare to stop. 49. Why was the color red used to mean “stop”?
A. It reminded people of traffic rules. B. It helped trains run smoothly. C. It gave people a warning of danger. D. It was the first color people thought of.
C. $400
D. $500
50. What does the underlined word “swapped” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Designed.
B. Exchanged.
C. Suggested.
D. Compared.
51. In which order did the “take care” light develop? a. A white light A. a-c-b
b. A green light B. b-c-a
c. A yellow light C. a-b-c
D. b-a-c
52. What is the passage mainly about? A. The advantages of traffic lights. C. The importance of traffic lights.
C
How would you feel if someone decided to take away your park? Well, that’s what’s happening in my community. There’s a park that some people want to turn into a golf course (高尔夫球场). Let me tell you why I think it’s a bad idea.
First, a park is meant to be for the whole community. Not everyone likes golf, so not everyone will get to use the park. This isn’t fair. A community park should have open spaces for everyone to use.
Second, to make way for the golf course, lots of playground equipment (设施) will have to be moved or knocked down, which is a waste of time and money. It’s also a waste of perfectly good equipment. The swings, for example, will probably just end up as litter.
Third, what about giving young people something to do? Not all kids are crazy about golf. At the moment, the park has a skating place and a playground. These attract lots of kids from the community. If you turn the park into a golf course, these kids won’t have anywhere to go and they won’t have anything to do. This means that they will stay at home and turn on a video game rather than get some exercise. It also means that they might be out on the street causing trouble. Wouldn’t it be better to give them something to do at the park?
Finally, golf is expensive. Building a golf course and maintaining (维护) it costs a lot of money. Who is going to pay to maintain the golf course? What about those people who can’t afford to join a golf club? That means that the golf course will only be available to people with lots of money.
B. The history of traffic lights. D. The meanings of traffic lights.
Turning our park into a golf course is a bad idea. I suggest we have a community meeting before plans go any further. 53. Some people want to change the park into ________. A. a golf club
B. a golf course
C. a park
D. a skating place
54. According to Paragraph 4, having nowhere to go will make some children
________.
A. go to get some exercise B. fall in love with golf C. play video games at home D. go to the street and make friends
55. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? (P=Paragraph)
56. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To help carry out further plans. B. To make the park more beautiful. C. To encourage children to go skating. D. To stop the golf course from being built.
D
Long long ago, there lived a man and a woman who had seven sons. The couple wanted a daughter very much, and finally, they had a girl. She was very pretty and her parents loved her very much. One day the father needed water for the child, so he sent the seven brothers to a well (井) in the forest to get it. Once there, though, the boys began to fight and the water jug (壶) fell into the well. The boys looked into the well and thought of their father. They were afraid to go home.
Hours passed, “Where are those boys?” shouted the angry father. “They are probably playing a game and have forgotten about the water. I wish they were all
turned into ravens (乌鸦)!” And when he looked up, he saw seven black birds flying away. The father was shocked. “What have I done?” he thought. But it was too late. He could not take back his words.
Later, the girl grew up and discovered she had brothers. The story of their bad luck influenced her deeply, and she decided to find them. For years, she searched and did not stop. She made up her mind to find them. Finally, she found their home. To enter it, she needed a special key made from a chicken bone, which she did not have. The girl thought for a moment, and then took a knife and cut off one of her fingers. With it, she opened the front door and went inside. On a table, there were seven plates and seven cups. She ate and drank a little from each of them. In the last cup, she accidently dropped a ring that her parents had given her.
Later that day, the ravens returned for their meal. The girl hid behind the door and watched. When the seventh raven drank from his cup, something hit his mouth. The raven recognized it at once---it was his parents’ ring. “I wish our sister were here,” he said, “and then we could be free.” At that moment, their sister ran to them, and suddenly the ravens were humans again. The brothers kissed their sister and all eight of them went home together happily.
57. Why were the seven brothers afraid to go home at first? A. They lost their father’s ring. B. They threw away the water jug. C. They didn’t get back any water. D. Seven black ravens shocked them.
58. What can we infer (推断) from the underlined sentence in Para. 2? A. The father regretted what he had said. B. The father was not pleased with his life. C. The father was worried about his little girl. D. The father was angry with what his sons had done. 59. How did the ravens become human again? A. They ate a magic ring.
B. One raven made a wish after seeing the ring.
C. They drank with a special cup from their father. D. Their sister kissed them.
60. What lesson can we learn from the story?
A. Don’t talk to strange people. B. Work hard and you will be happy. C. Your parents always know best. D. Think carefully about what to say.

Where did you go yesterday? Did you hear music at any of those places? There is a good chance that you did. Today most stores and restaurants play music. You might ever hear music in an office or on a farm.
Scientists believe that music influences the way people behave. According to
some scientists, the sound of western classical music (Mozart and Bach) makes people feel richer. When a restaurant plays classical music, people spend more money on food and drinks. When the restaurant plays modern music, people spend less money. With no background music, people spend even less.
Scientists also believe that loud, fast music makes people eat faster. People actually chew their food faster when the music gets faster. Some restaurants play fast music during their busy hours. This gets people to eat faster and leave quickly. Restaurants can make more money this way.
Some scientists think that music makes you think and learn better. They say that music helps students to be more alert (警觉的). It is true that people learn better when they are relaxed. And listening to music can help you relax.
The next time you hear music somewhere, be careful. It might change the way you behave.

52. B 主旨大意题。由第二段开头The first traffic signals were used for trains；到第四段开头During these times. ... Years later...；到最后一段开头 Today...，可知 文章以时间轴的顺序在介绍红绿灯的发展由来一从火车上的演变到今天马路上能见到的交通信号灯，也即交通信号灯的历史， 56. D主旨大意题。

A项，“帮助进一步执行计划”；B项，“使公园更美丽”；C项，“鼓励孩子们去溜冰”，均不符合文意。D项，“阻止高尔夫球场的建造。”，符合文意。 60. D根据文意可知，故事中父亲一时生气，说让儿子们变成乌鸦，没想到他们真的变成了乌鸦，最后女儿长大后，又把哥哥们变成了人。D项意为 “仔细考虑
