第6题
While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard the fire was a bad one; hundreds of houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed upon a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. The man of the Tower told him that the fire had started in a baker's.shop in Pudding Lane(小巷) ; the baker's house had caught fire from the over-heated oven(烤箱) and then the flames had quickly spread to the other houses in the narrow lane. So the Great Fire of London, a fire that lasted nearly five days, destroyed most of the old city and ended, as it is said, at Pie Comer.
What is the passage about？
A．The Great Fire of London.
B．Who was the first to discover the fire.
C．What Pepys was doing during the fire.
D．The losses caused by the fire.

C
Pepys and his wife Jane had asked some friends to dinner on Sunday, September 2nd, 1666.
They were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and
while they were busy they saw the glow(微弱的光) of a fire start in the sky. By 3 0'clock on the
Sunday morning, its glow had become so bright that Jane woke her husband to watch it. Pepys slipped on his dressing-gown and went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, and
after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked, though the fire was
dying down, as though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put
his things back where he wanted them.

听力原文： My first semester of college was the worst I've been through. I had made plans during the summer to share an apartment with two of my close friends from high school. But before we moved in, problems started developing.
One of the two girls I was to share an apartment with was going to work instead of going to college. However, a week before we were to move in, she found out that she didn't get the job. She was forced to live at home and look for work. The rest two of us lasted for a month and then agreed that we couldn't make it with the higher monthly rent payments. I started looking around.
I found another apartment and the rent wasn't bad. The place was noisy, but it was the best I could afford for the time. However, one clay when I returned, I saw smoke coming from the back of the house. The cottage had caught fire, and my room was a burned mess. I was once more out of a place to stay.
I finally gave up looking around and moved home. I had to drive forty miles to school every day, so I almost spent as much on gas as I would have on lodging. I was very bored. I almost lost the will to study. It had been really a bad semester!

A．To look for two of her close friends.
B．To stay at home and study.
C．To share an apartment with friends.
D．To move out and live alone.

听力原文：W: Hey, Henry, bow's everything going, and what's with the flowers？
M: They're for my wife.
W: Oh, a wedding anniversary or something？
M: To tell the truth, it couldn't be worse. You see, I have to pick up my wife from the airport this evening, but while she was gone, there were a few minor mishaps.
W: Oh really？ What happened？
M: Well, I had some of the guys over Friday night to watch a basketball game on TV, but one of them got all excited, and started going around, waving his arms, and he accidentally knocked over my wife's 250-year old porcelain vase given to her by her grandmother, and broke it beyond repair.
W: Man, have you tried...
M: Super glue？ Yup, but she would be able to tell in a second.
W: Oh, you're in hot water now.
M: If it had been only that.
W: Oh, there's more？
M: Yeah, you see, the water from the vase spilled all over the manuscript. of a book my wife has been writing for the past two years. It blurred the ink over many of the pages. And so one of the guys had the bright idea of drying the pages by the fire while we watched, uh, the rest game, but a spark from the fire must have blown out and burned the manuscript. to a crisp.
W: But what about an electronic file copy？ She had one, didn't she？
M: Well, actually, her computer crashed the day before while I was playing some computer games, and I haven't been able to get it to work since.
W: Man, you are in trouble now. You're going to have a hard time digging yourself out of this one. Ah, so I get it now. You're buying the flowers for her as a part of some kind of peace offering, right？
M: No, not at all. They're for my funeral.
