The Chaplin family were very poor, and life was difficult in London. Charlie, as he was called, used to do his mothers job in the theatre when she is ill. When he was only 17 years old, Chaplin got his first real job as an actor. What he did was to do silly things to make people laugh in the theatre. Seven years later he went to the USA. And over the next four years, he formed his own way of art. He developed the character(角色 ) of a homeless gentleman which became very popular. From the 1920s to the 1950s, Chaplin made his most famous films. The film Modern Times(1936) shows his care about the modern industry(工業(yè) ) workers. Many of his films describe the poor life and hard time of the working people during that period. Although Charlie Chaplin was British, he lived in the USA until 1953. But he never got US nationality（ 國(guó)籍 ） . Then Chaplin, his wife and his five children had to move to Switzerland where he lived until he died. When he was 83 years old, he won his only Oscar for the music he wrote for the film Limelight. He was named Sir Charles Chaplin at the age of 85. Charlie Chaplin died in Switzerland on December 25th,1975. 1. Chaplin used to _ when his mother was ill. A. look after her B. do the housework C. do his mothers job D. do his fathers job 2.

We can infer（ 得知 ） from the passage that Chaplin left the USA because of _. A. his family B. his work C. the US government D. the Swiss government B One day a strong cowboy was traveling on his horse when he saw a bar. He decided to stop for a few drinks, so he tied(拴 ) his horse outside the bar, walked into the bar and ordered two bottles of beer. This cowboy was new in town. He looked around and noticed some people making faces to him. He guessed that they might play some tricks on him, but he said nothing and continued to drink. After drinking, he walked out of the bar and found his horse lost. However, he kept calm, came back into the bar, and said slowly, “I dont know what you fools did to my horse out there but Im leaving in five minutes, and by then if my horse isnt back where its supposed to be, well I have to do here what I did in Texas!” The cowboy added, “And I dont want to do what I did in Texas!” After hearing these words, the other customers seemed a little bit frightened. The cowboy went back to his seat and ordered another two bottles of beer. After five minutes, he walked out and found his horse tied where it was supposed to be. Just as he was leaving, the boss of the bar came up and asked curiously(好奇地 ), “What was the thing that you did in Texas but you didnt want to do here?” The cowboy turned to the boss and replied in a low voice, “I had to walk home!” 4. The cowboy drank _ of beer at the bar in all. A. five bottles B. four bottles C. three bottles D. two bottles 5. In Texas, the cowboy had to _ when he couldnt find his horse.

They can use tools to solve problems although they dont have hands. For example, scientists have ever found that a dolphin can make a shy eel(鰻魚 ) come out of its hole with a dead fish. Dolphins use different sounds to exchange information with each other. Scientists in Haiwaii have developed a sign language to give instructions to dolphins, and the results are amazing. They find that dolphins not only understand the meaning of individual(個(gè)別 )words, but also understand the importance of word order in a sentence. Most animals enjoy playing but dolphins seem to like making their games as challenging as possible. On a beautiful day in 1997, scientists at a beach watched a little dog going into the sea and swimming towards the dolphins. To their surprise, the dolphins came up to the dog and then started throwing it into the air. The dog seemed to enjoy the “game” and continued playing with the dolphins for more than an hour. Dolphins live in a very different world from ours, but they are very good at our “IQ tests”. For example, they will jump out of the water when they hear a whistle(口哨 ) noise. They do this because they will get a fish as a prize. There is still much to learn about these cute problem-solvers, but it is certain that watching a dolphin show is fun. 7. What can a dolphin use to make an eel come out of its hole? A. Its mouth B. Its head C. A dead fish D. A little dog 8. Where did the dolphins throw the dog when playing? A. Onto its back B. Into the air C. Onto the beach D. Into the water 9. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Dolphins understand many languages. B. Dolphins are a kind of clever animals. C. Scientists have known dolphins well enough. D. Dolphins seem to make their games relaxing. D You probably know you should say “please” and “thank you” at restaurants. You probably know the rules of a library. You know you should respect(尊敬 ) and be nice to your classmates. But do you have music manners? Keep It Down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry. Usually, when you play the music loud on an MP3 player, other people cant hear the words of the song. They just hear a loud sound. Not one wants to listen to this. Very loud music can also be bad for your ears, so even if you are alone when listening to your MP3 player, you shouldnt have it turned up too high. Take Them Off! You need to know when to turn your MP3 player off and put it away. Libraries and schools dont allow MP3 players. There are other places, like museums, they dont have rules, but it would be rude（ 粗魯 ,沒禮貌 ） to have your MP3 player on. Sometimes, it just doesnt make sense to listen your MP3 player at event. Why would you listen to music at a play, a movie or a sporting event? You would miss what is going on and others would wonder why you even came. Take One Out! Once in a while its okay just to take out one earphone and not the other. Imagine you are listening on your MP3 player when someone asks you the way. It would not be rude to take out one earphone, tell him the way, and put back the earphone and continue listening. You can also do this when you order food at a fast- food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and its not for you. Its Your Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example. Some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when reading books, while others think it is disturbing. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you. 10. The underline word “_volume”_ in Paragraph Two probably means “_”. A. what type the music is B. how loud the sound is C. how long the song is D. what colour the MP3 player is 11. We should turn down the music when we are alone because loud music _. A. is not enjoyable B. makes us tired C. is bad for MP3 player D. hurts our ears 12. If we listen to our MP3 player at a play, _. A. the theatre wont allow it. B. the actors will get angry. C. others wont hear the play well. D. we will miss part of the play 13. What can be the best title of this passage? A. Music Lovers B. Music Manners C. MP3 Players D.MP3 Earphones 四、詞匯運(yùn)用：（ 8%） （ A）根據(jù)句意，寫出括號(hào)內(nèi)所給單詞的適當(dāng)形式： 1. Dont you think it is the _(tough) maths problems we have met so far? 2.
