2．It was long past noon when he awoke．His valet（男仆）had entered several times on tiptoe into the room to see if he was waking up，and had wondered what made his young master sleep so late．Finally his bell sounded，and Victor came in softly with a cup of tea and a pile of letters on a small tray of old china，and drew back the curtains．
'Monsieur has well slept this morning，"he said，smiling．
‘What o'clock is it，Victor？"asked Dorian Gray sleepily．
"One hour and a quarter，Monsieur．"
How late it was!He sat up，and having sipped some tea，turned over his letters．One of them was from Lord Henry，and had been brought that morning．He hesitated for a moment，and then put it aside．The others he opened at a random．They contained the usual collection of cards，invitations to dinner，tickets for private views，programmers of charity concerts，and the like that are showered on fashionable young men every morning during the season．There was a rather heavy bill for a silver Louis-XVI toilet-set that he had not yet had the courage to send on to his guardians（監(jiān)護人），who were extremely old-fashioned people and did not realize that we live in an age when unnecessary things are our only necessities； and there were several very politely worded communications from Jermyn Street money-lenders offering to advance any sum of money at a moment's notice and at the most reasonable rates of interest
After about ten minutes he got up，and passed into the bathroom．The cool water refreshed him after his long sleep．He seemed to have forgotten all that he had gone through．A dim sense of having taken part in some strange tragedy came to him once or twice，but there was the unreality of a dream about it
As soon as he was dressed，he sat down to a light French breakfast It was a nice day．The warm air seemed laden with sweet flavor．A bee flew in，buzzed round and stood before him．He felt perfectly happy．
24．How did Victor feel when he entered Gray's room several times？D
A．Afraid．

12．A wise man once said that the only thing necessary for the victory of evil is for good men to do nothing．So，as a police officer，I have some urgent things to say to good people．Day after day my men and I struggle to hold back a tidal wave of crime．Something has gone terribly wrong with our once-proud American way of life．It has happened in the area of values．A key ingredient is disappearing，and I think I know what it is：accountability．
Accountability isn't hard to define．It means that every person is responsible for his or her actions and liable for their consequences．
Of the many values that hold civilization together---honesty，kindness，and so on---accountability may be the most important of all．Without it，there can be no respect，no trust，no law---and，ultimately，no society．
My job as a police officer is to impose accountability on people who refuse，or have never learned，to impose it on themselves．But as every policeman knows，external controls on people's behavior are far less effective than internal restraints such as guilt，shame and embarrassment．
Fortunately there are still communities---smaller towns，usually---where schools maintain discipline and where parents hold up standards that declare："In this family certain things are not tolerated---they simply are not done!"
Yet more and more，especially in our larger cities and suburbs，these inner restraints are loosening．Your typical robber has none．He considers your property his property； he takes what he wants，including your life if you annoy him．
The main cause of this breakdown is a radical shift in attitudes．Thirty years ago，if a crime was committed，society was considered the victim．Now，in a shocking reversal，it's the criminal who is considered victimized：by his underprivileged （被剝奪基本社會權利的） upbringing，by the school that didn't teach him to read，by the church that failed to reach him with moral guidance，by the parents who didn't provide a stable home．
I don't believe it．Many others in equally disadvantaged circumstances choose not to engage in criminal activities．If we free the criminal，even partly，from accountability，we become a society of endless excuses where no one accepts responsibility for anything．We in America desperately need more people who believe that the person who commits a crime is the one responsible for it．

50．What the wise man said suggests that it'sB．
A．unnecessary for good people to do anything in face of evil
B．certain that evil will be widespread if good men do nothing about it
C．only natural for good men to defeat evil
D．desirable for good men to keep away from evil
51．According to the author，if a person is found guilty of a crime，C．
A．society is to be held responsible           
B．modern civilization is responsible for it
C．the criminal himself should bear the blame  
D．the standards of living should be improved
52．Compared with those in small towns，people in large cities haveA．
A．less self-discipline                   B．better sense of discipline
C．more respect to each other             D．less effective government
53．The writer is sorry to have noticed thatA．
A．people in large cities tend to excuse criminals
B．people in small towns still stick to old discipline and standards．
C．today's society lacks sympathy for people in difficulty
D．people in disadvantaged circumstances are engaged in criminal activities
54．The key point of the passage is thatD．
A．stricter discipline should be maintained in schools and families
B．more good examples should be set for people to follow
C．more attention should be paid to people's behavior
D．more people should accept the value of accountability．

17．The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of 2September 1666．In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city，where most of the houses were wooden and close together．One hundred thousand people became homeless，but only a few lost their lives．
The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker（面包師）in Pudding Lane．The baker，with his wife and family，was able to get out through a window in the roof．A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery（面包房）into a small hotel next door．Then it spread quickly into Thames Street．That was the beginning．
By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire．On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames．Tuesday was the worst day．The fire destroyed many well-known buildings，old St Paul's and the Guildhall among them．
Samuel Pepys，the famous writer，wrote about the fire．People threw their things into the river．Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment．Birds fell out of the air because of the heat．
The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire．With nothing left to burn，the fire became weak and finally died out．
After the fire，Christopher Wren，the architect（建筑師），wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone．In fact，the streets are still narrow； but he did build more than fifty churches，among them new St Paul's．
The fire caused great pain and loss，but after it London was a better place：a city for the future and not just of the past．
21．The underlined word"family"in the second paragraph meansB．
A．home　　
B．children    
C．wife and husband　　　
D．wife and children
22．It seems that the writer of the text was most sorry for the fact thatC．
A．some people lost their lives
B．the birds in the sky were killed by the fire
C．many famous buildings were destroyed
D．the King's bakery was burned down
23．Why did the writer cite（引用） Samuel Pepys？D
A．Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire．
B．Because Pepys also wrote about the fire．
C．To show that poor people suffered most．
D．To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire．
24．How was the fire put out according to the text？D
A．The king and his soldiers came to help．
B．All the wooden houses in the city were destroyed．
C．People managed to get enough water from the river．
D．Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down．
25．Which of the following were reasons for the rapid spread of the big fire？B
（a）There was a strong wind．
（b）The streets were very narrow．
（c）Many houses were made of wood．
（d）There was not enough water in the city．
（e）People did not discover the fire earlier．
A．（a）and（b）    
B．（a），（b）and（c）

6．Contrary to most people's idea，the air in Coastal cities can be far from fresh and healthful，said a report recently published．
University of California Professor Mark Thiemens led the research team．His team．report blames ships that release dirty smoke by burning low-cost，high-sulfur （硫橫）fuel．They directly measured smoke released from a ship．They also tested air at the end of the Scripps Pier （碼頭）．The area is just north of San Diego，which is both a major city and port．The Scripps Pier is also close to waters with heavy shipping traffic and the city of Los Angeles．Los Angeles has the third largest port in the world．
Primary sulfate （硫酸鹽）is produced when a ship burns fuel called bunker oil．Bunker oil contains a Large amount of sulfur．Most sulfur released by ships burning bunker oil is a gaseous pollutant-sulfur dioxide．After a time，sulfur dioxide becomes sulfate in the atmosphere．The researchers say this primary sulfate may be  only a small part of what ships produce．
Professor Thiemens said no one had really expected that ships would be responsible for so many，particulates （微粒）．He said the extremely small particles （撤 粒）are especially threatening．They measure only one and one half microns in size．，A micron is one millionth of a meter．
The researchers say the particulates can travel long distances because they stay in the atmosphere longer than other pollutants．Professor Thiemens noted that the air of Los Angeles influenced air quality in San Die-go．That distance is almost 180 kilometers．，
Primary sulfur particulates can also threaten human health．When people breathe，the particulates stay in their lungs．Other scientists have said that up to 60，000 people around the world die each year from dirty ship smoke．
Other gaseous pollutants from ships include nitrogen oxide and carbon dioxide．Earlier this year，a United Nations'report said gases from ships produce more than one billion tons of carbon dioxide every year．Ships are not governed under the Kyoto Protocol，the agreement that establishes limits for gases linked to climate change．But international rules requiring ship fuels that burn cleanly are to become effective in 2015．
57．What is the main idea of the passage？B
A．Coastal cities are ideal places to live in．
B．The air quality in coastal cities is worrying．
C．Cleaner-burning fuels are welcome in ships．
D．The world's oceans'ecosystem is far from satisfactory．
58．It is generally thought thatA
A．the air in coastal cities'is very fresh and healthful
B．the air in coastal cities is badly polluted
C．ships are responsible for so many particulates
D．extremely small particles are harmless
59．Gaseous pollutants from ships mentioned in the passage includeC
A．sulfate，nitrogen oxide and carbon dioxide
B．carbon dioxide and small particles
C．sulfur dioxide，nitrogen oxide and carbon dioxide
D．sulfate and micron
60．We can draw the conclusion thatD
A．the Kyoto Protocol is an agreement related to sea fish hunting
B．bunker oil has already been banned in passenger ships
C．urgent action should be taken to reduce the number of ships
D．cleaner-burning fuels should be encouraged to be used in tankers and passenger ships．
