听力原文: Everyone remembers the reign of Elizabeth. She gave her name to an age, which remains in English minds as an age of glory. Most people associated it with two things. The first is literature, especially the literature of Shakespeare, for this was the age when Shakespeare lived and when English literature greatly developed. The second is adventure on the sea. For the first time, English ships began to explore the world and trade with distant countries. They soon came into conflict with the might of Spain, whose huge ships had been sailing across the sea for a hundred years and who had established a rich empire in the Americas. Spain was the greatest enemy to England at the time. Sea fights between Spanish and English ships were frequent, and the English proved to be more aggressive and more successful. Their greatest sailor was Sir Francis Drake, who led the English ships to fight against the great Spanish fleet, "the Armada", when they began to attack the heart of England. "The Armada" was defeated by the English ship. It was a lucky victory in many ways, but it marked the beginning of England as a great power at sea.

(33)

A.Her name and her rule over the country.

B.The great writer, Shakespeare and her name.

C.literature and adventure on the sea.

D.Shakespeare and English literature at the time.

听力原文:Today, most countries in the world have canals. Goods can be moved cheaply by boa
t than any other means of transport. Some canals, such as the Suez or the Panama, save ships weeks of time by making their voyage a thousand miles shorter. Other canals permit boats to reach cities that are located on the coast. Still other canals help to irrigate fields where there is not enough water, and drain lands where there is too much water.

In places where it does not rain very often, irrigation canals carry water from rivers or lakes, such as the lake behind .the Aswan Dam on the Nile River, and provide the irrigation water.

In places where there is too much water, canals can drain the water off the land for use in farming. In Holland, acres and acres of land have been drained in this way. Since much of this drained land is below sea level, the water in the canals has to be pumped up to sea level. Dikes have been built in Holland to keep the sea from coveting the land.

Which of following is the best title of the text?

A.How Aswan Dam was buik.

B.Transporting with canal boats.

C.Canals and their uses.

听力原文:On the foggy night of July 25, 1956, one of the great sea disasters of modem time

听力原文: On the foggy night of July 25, 1956, one of the great sea disasters of modem times occurred off Nantucket Island. The victim was the new 697-foot Italian luxury liner Andrea Doria, bound for New York. Her killer was the 510-foot Swedish liner Stockholm, outward bound for Europe, her massive bow specially sharpened and reinforced with steel to serve as an ice-breaker.

Aboard the Andrea Doria were 1,706 persons, passengers and crew. In her strong room, deep in the hold, were cash, bonds and jewelry valued at several million dollars, deposited there by the passengers for safekeeping. According to persistent and authoritative rumor, there was also an unlisted cargo of gold bullion worth another million or more. Her elegant saloons and lounges were lavishly decorated with priceless sculptures and paintings valued at more than half a million dollars.

The Swede was making a full 18 knots, the Italian some 22 knots or better, despite the fog and the darkness. Suddenly, at 11: 22 pm the Stockholm burst out of the mist and drove head on into the Andrea Doria's starboard side, just aft of her flying bridge. So fierce was the impact, the ice-breaker prow drove 30 feet into the vitals of the stricken liner. When the ships wrenched apart, the sea roared in through a hole 40 feet wide and nearly 70 feet high.

Luckily there were other ships in the immediate vicinity and the doomed vessel stayed afloat long enough for all but 52 persons on board to be rescued. At 10:09 in the morning, the Andrea Doria raised her stem high and slid to her grave, 240 feet below. With her, she carried the vast fortune that has haunted the dreams of salvage experts and treasure hunters ever since.

When did the disaster happen?

A.In 1957.

B.In 1956.

C.In 1925.

D.In 1706.

Passage Two

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.

You probably know about the Titanic, but it was actually just one of three state-of-the-art (最先进的)ocean ships back in the day. The Olympic class ships were built by the Harland & Wolff ship makers in Northern Ireland for the White Star Line company. The Olympic class included the Olympic, the Britannic and the Titanic, What you may not know is that the Titanic wasn’t even the flagship of this class. All in all, the Olympic class ships were marvels of sea engineering, but they seemed cursed to suffer disastrous fates.

The Olympic launched first in 1910, followed by the Titanic in 1911, and lastly the Britannic in 1914. The ships had nine decks,and Whits Star Line decided to focus on making them the most luxurious ships on the water.

Stretching 269.13 meters, the Olympic class ships were wonders of naval technology, and everyone thought that they would continue to be so for quite some time. However, all suffered terrible accidents on the open seas, The Olympic got wrecked before the Titanic did, but it was the only one to survive and maintain a successful career of 24 years. The Titanic was the first to sink after famously hitting a huge iceberg in 1912. Following this disaster, the Britannic hit a naval mine in 1916 and subsequently sank as well.

Each ship was coal-powered by several boilers constantly kept running by exhausted crews below deck. Most recognizable of the ship designs are the ship’s smoke stacks, but the fourth stack was actually just artistic in nature and served no functional purpose. While two of these ships sank, they were all designed with double hulls(船体)believed to make them “unsinkable”, perhaps a mistaken idea that led to the Titanic’s and the Britannic’s tragic end.

The Olympic suffered two crashes with other ships and went on to serve as a hospital ship and troop transport in World WarⅠ. Eventually, she was taken out of service in 1935, ending the era of the luxurious Olympic class ocean liners.

What does the passage say about the three Olympic class ships?

A.They performed marvelously on the sea

B.They could all break the ice in their way

C.They all experienced terrible misfortunes

D.They were models of modern engineering

What did White Star Line have in mind when it purchased the three ships?A.Their capacity of sailing across all waters

B.The utmost comfort passengers could enjoy

C.Their ability to survive disasters of any kind

D.The long voyages they were able to undertake

What is said about the fourth stack of the ships?A.It was a mere piece of decoration

B.It was the work of a famous artist

C.It was designed to let out extra smoke

D.It was easily identifiable from afar

What might have led to the tragic end of the Titanic and the Britannic?A.Their unscientific designs

B.Their captains’ misjudgment

C.The assumption that they were built with the latest technology

D.The belief that they could never sink with a double-layer body

What happened to the ship Olympic in the end?A.She was used to carry troops

B.She was converted into a hospital ship

C.She was sunk in World WarⅠ

D.She was retired after her naval service
