20、 and other sports. New design has been made 47 for people who run slowly. But perhaps sneakers are 48 used by children in the United States. In fact American children of 49 ages would much rather play in sneakers than anything else, except perhaps 50 at all.New York City once held a poetry contest (
21、诗歌比赛) for children. The subject was only “sneaker”. Thousands of children sent in their 51 and praised the sneakers they love.

They see the sights that Pompeii is famous for its stadium (运动场) and theatres, its shops an
27、d restaurants. The tourists do not, however, see Pompeiis people. They do not see them because Pompeii has no people. No one has lived in Pompeii for almost 2,000 years.Once, Pompeii was a busy city of 22,000 people. It lay at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, a grass-covered volcano. Mount Vesuvius had n
28、ot erupted (喷发) for centuries, so the people of Pompeii felt safe. But they were not.In August of AD 79, Mount Vesuvius erupted. The entire top of the mountain exploded (爆炸), and a huge black cloud rose into the air. Soon stones and hot ash (灰烬) began to fall on Pompeii. When the eruption ended two
29、days later, Pompeii was buried under 20 feet of stones and ashes. Almost all of its people were dead.For centuries, Pompeii lay buried under stone and ash. Then, in the year 1861, an Italian scientist named Ginseppe began to uncover Pompeii. Slowly, carefully, Ginseppe and his men dug. The city look
30、ed almost the same as it had looked in AD 79. There were streets and fountains (喷泉), houses and shops. There was a stadium with 20,000 seats. Perhaps the most important of all, there were everyday objects, which tell us a great deal about the people who lived in Pompeii. Many glasses and jars had so
31、me dark blue colour in the bottom, so we know that the people of Pompeii liked wine. They liked bread, too, metal bread pans were in every bakery (面包店). In one bakery there were 81 round, flat loaves of bread a type of bread that is still sold in Italy today. Tiny boxes filled with a dark, shiny pow
32、der tell (粉末) us that women liked to wear eye-makeup.Ginseppe has died, but his work continues. One-fourth has not been uncovered yet. Scientists are still digging, still making discoveries that draw the tourists to Pompeii.61Why do large numbers of people come to Pompeii each year?A. To visit the v

The city nearby offered all kinds of fun.B. The area produced the finest wine in Italy.C. Few people expected the volcano to erupt again.D.
34、The mountain was beautiful and covered with grass.63Why did the city uncovered look almost the same as it had looked in AD 79?A. Because Ginseppe and his men dug it slowly and carefully.B. Because the city was buried alive and remained untouched.C. Because scientists successfully rebuilt the city wi
35、th everyday objects.D. Because nobody had lived in the city ever since the volcano erupted.64What do we know about the Pompeiians who lived 2000 years ago?A. They lived more or less the same as Italians now do.B. They liked women wearing all kinds of makeup.C. They enjoyed a lazy life with drinking
36、and eating.D. They went back to Pompeii after the eruption in AD 79.BWhen I was a boy, I belonged to the Boy Scouts (童子军), so I used to go camping every summer, and once something happened which I have never been able to explain.We were camping in a place above a river. After arriving, we all rushed
37、 down to the river and had a swim. Standing by the river, we noticed that it was surrounded by cliffs (悬崖). If someone wanted to reach the river at this point, he had to walk past our camp.Several days later, the scoutmaster had to be away for a day. That afternoon, we had supper early. We were sitt
38、ing round the fire, eating and talking, when a man walked past and went down towards the river. We all felt that this man looked very strange, but, because each of us was afraid of looking very stupid, no one said anything.We ate rather slowly, taking as long as possible. After finishing, we collect
39、ed our plates together so that we could take them to the river where we always washed them. But no one moved towards the river we stood looking at each other ashamed (感到不好意思的). Then all shouting at once, we began talking about the man who had walked past us. We agreed how strange he looked and we wo
40、ndered what he could be doing by the river. We knew that he could only return by passing through our camp.An hour passed. Then one of the boys suggested we should creep (悄悄移动) down by the river so that we could see what the man was doing. Moving very slowly and keeping in the shadow (阴暗), we crept d
41、own towards the bank. One boy climbed a tree so that he could see everything clearly. He called to us that there was no one there, so we ran down to the bank, looking everywhere carefully. We could not understand where the man had gone.When it got dark, we went back to our camp feeling bewildered. W
42、e told the scoutmaster what had happened in the evening. Smiling, he doubted that we had seen the man, but finally suggested we go and look again. We did, but there was no one there. Many years have passed, but I still remember it as if it were yesterday. What did we see? I d
43、o not know.65The writer in the text mainly tells us _.A. the story of his childhoodB. a strange camping experienceC. about a stranger by the riverD. about a good place for camping66Why did the boys eat their supper slowly?A. They wanted to go to the river bank at a later time.B. They were waiti
44、ng for their scoutmaster.C. They had a supper earlier than usual.D. They were talking while eating.67The word “bewildered” in the text probably means _.A. ashamedB. nervous (紧张的)C. unable to understand D. eager (渴望的) to know something68The writer still remembers the event because
45、0;_.A. the boys acted foolishlyB. the camping place is beautifulC. there has been no explanation for the eventD. he particularly enjoyed his camping that summerCIm seventeen. I had worked as a box boy at a supermarket in Los Angeles. People came to the counter (柜台) and you put things in their bags f
46、or them. And carried things to their cars. It was hard work.While working, you wear a plate with your name on it. I once met someone I knew years ago. I remembered his name and said, “Mr Castle, how are you?” We talked about this and that. As he left, he said, “It was nice talking to you, Brett.” I
47、felt great, he remembered me. Then I looked down at my name plate. Oh, no. He didnt remember me at all, he just read the name plate. I wish I had put “Irving” down on my name plate. If hed have said, “Oh yes, Irving, how could I forget you?” Id have been ready for him. Theres nothing personal here.T
48、he manager and everyone else who were a step above the box boys often shouted orders. One of these was: you couldnt accept tips. Okay, Im outside and I put the bags in the car. For a lot of people, the natural reaction (反应) is to take a quarter and give it to me. Id say, “Im sorry, I cant.” Theyd ge
49、t angry. When you give someone a tip, youre sort of being polite. You take a quarter and you put it in their hand and you expect them to say, “Oh, thanks a lot.” When you say, “Im sorry, I cant.” they feel a little put down. They say, “No one will know.” And they put it in your pocket. You say,
50、 “I really cant.” It gets to a point where you almost have to hurt a person physically (身体上) to prevent him from tipping you. It was not in agreement with the stores belief in being friendly. Accepting tips was a friendly thing and made the customer feel good. I just couldnt understand the strangene
51、ss of some peoples ideas. One lady actually put it in my pocket, got in the car, and drove away. I would have had to throw the quarter at her or eaten it or something.I had decided that one year was enough. Some people needed the job to stay alive and fed. I guess I had the means and could afford to
52、 hate it and give it up.69What can be the best title for this text?A. How Hard Life Is for Box BoysB. Getting along with CustomersC. Why I Gave up My JobD. The Art of Taking Tips70From the second paragraph, we can infer (推断) that _.A. the writer didnt like the impersonal part of his jobB. with a nam
53、e plate, people can easily start talkingC. Mr Castle mistook Irving for BrettD. Irving was the writers real name71The box boy refused to accept tips because _.A. customers only gave small tipsB. some customers had strange ideas about tippingC. the store didnt allow the box boys to take tipsD. he did
54、nt want to fight with the customers72The underlined phrase “put down” in the third paragraph probably means _.A. misunderstoodB. defeatedC. hatefulD. hurtDJames Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family moved to Cleveland when he was 9. There, a school teac
55、her asked the youth his name.“J. C.,” he replied.She thought he had said “Jesse”, and he had a new name.Owens ran his first race at age 13. After high school, he went to Ohio State University. He had to work part time so as to pay for his education. As a second-year student, in the Big Ten games in
56、1935, he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.A week before the Big Ten meet, Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week, and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet. He refu
57、sed to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try, event by event. He did try, and the results are in the record book.The stage was set for Owens victory (胜利) at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year, and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic (体育的) but a
58、lso political. Hitler did not congratulate any of the African-American winners.“It was all right with me,” he said years later. “I didnt go to Berlin to shake hands with him, anyway.”Having returned from Berlin, he received no telephone calls from the president of his own country, either. In fact, h
59、e was not honored by the United States until 1976, four years before his death.Owens Olympic victories made little difference to him. He earned his living by looking after a school playground, and accepted money to race against cars, trucks, motorcycles, and dogs.“Sure, it bothered me,” he said late
60、r. “But at least it was an honest living. I had to eat.”In time, however, his gold medals changed his life. “They have kept me alive over the years,” he once said. “Time has stood still for me. That golden moment dies hard.”73In the Big Ten meet, Owens _.A. hurt himself in the backB. succeeded in se
61、tting many recordsC. tried every sports event but failedD. had to give up some events74We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because _.A. he was not of the right race (人种)B. he was the son of a poor farmerC. he didnt shake hands with HitlerD. he didnt talk to the US president on the phone75When Owens says “They have kept me alive over the years,”
