In fact, whistling is talking because the villagers speak and sing by whistling. Kuskoy parents begin to teach their boys and girls the language of whistling about the time

23、 the children learn to talk. It is considered so important that the village school includes it as one of the subjects taught along with the Turkish language. This art of communication has taken centuries to develop. The village of Kuskoy spreads out across two hillsides that are separated by a deep

24、valley. The villagers had to find an easy way to communicate where their voices couldnt carry. They developed a highpitched (高音的 ) whistle language that could be transmitted as far as five miles through air. As a result, Kuskoy, which means “bird village“ in Turkish, has come to be known as a whistl

25、ers paradise (乐园 ). Whistling is so much part of everyday life in Kuskoy that men and women speak, argue (辩论 ), and court (求爱 ) in whistles. The story was recently told of a young couple who eloped (私奔 ). The news was sent over the “mountain telephone“ by whistling. The lovers adventure (险经历 ) was q

26、uickly known to all the villagers. It is little wonder, then, that the children of Kuskoy study whistling in school. Wouldnt it be fun to start the school day with a song-whistled of course! 51 In the story, Kuskoy is the name of _. （ A） a man （ B） a country （ C） a town （ D） a village 52 The childre

28、ago 54 The high-pitched whistle can heard at a distance of _. （ A） 10km （ B） 5km （ C） 15km （ D） 8km 55 To find out how the name Canada came about, we must go back to the 16th century. At that time, the French dreamed of (梦想 ) discovering and controlling more land across the world. In 1535 Fran? ois

29、I , King of France, ordered a navigator (航海家 ) named Jacques Cartier to explore (探险 ) the New World and search for a passage to India. Cartier first arrived at the Gulf of the St. Lawrence, which he wanted to explore. He did not know what to expect but he hoped that this Gulf was just an arm of the

30、ocean between two islands. If it was, he would soon be on his way to the Far East. So he sailed upwards along the St. Lawrence River. However, instead of reaching Asia he arrived at Quebec or Stadacona, as the Indians called it. It was at this point that the term (词 ) “Canada“ entered the countrys h

31、istory. Apparently (明显地 ) the word “Canada“ came from an Indian word “Kanada“, which means village. Cartier first used it when he referred to Stadacona or Quebec. What a huge “village“ Canada is! 55 What was Cartier ordered to do? _. （ A） To build a new country （ B） To find the New World （ C） To get

32、 in touch with American Indians （ D） To know more about America and find a new way to Asia 56 When Cartier reached the Gulf of St. Lawrence he hoped _. （ A） he had got to the Far East （ B） it was a water way to the New World （ C） it was a water way to the East （ D） he had sailed into the Pacific 57

34、e for village is Stadacona. （ C） Quebec and Stadacona were two villages in Canada. （ D） Stadacona was what the Indians called Quebec. 59 No other capital in Europe has more charm (迷人 ) or a richer past than Vienna, the capital of Austria. Green woods, mountains, and the large Danube River give the c

35、ity beautiful surroundings. Vienna has more than 1,600,000 people. Almost one-fourth of all the people of Austria live there. Vienna is sometimes called “a city without a country“. It is so big that it does not seem to be suitable (适合的 ) in so small a country as Austria. Vienna was a center of scien

36、ce and art and music, too. Many great musicians lived there. It had the name of being a city of spirits, partly because of the dance music and operettas (轻歌剧 ) written by Viennese musicians. After World War Vienna found itself the capital of a rather poor country of less than 7, 000,000 people. Worl

37、d War made Vienna even worse than it was before.

40、er for the benefit of all. Without co-operation modern society could not exist. Co-operation has at its best among the farmers in the dry areas of certain parts of Australia and Africa. The fields have been irrigated in these areas. Crops cannot be grown without water. For this purpose, canals and r

41、eservoirs have been built. The canals have been cut through the fields of not only one farmer. Those who live higher up the valley than the others have permitted canals to be built through their land in order to carry water to the fields of farmers lower down. When there is a long period without rai

42、n, all share the water. Instead of taking all the water for themselves, the farmers in the higher land leave enough water for their neighbours down the valley. Farming in the dry areas has been made possible by such co-operation. By co-operation farmers have learned to make even the desert produce c

43、rops. 63 Co-opration means _. （ A） working for others （ B） working for oneself （ C） working together for the interests of all （ D） working together for the benefit of the whole world 64 A reservoir is used _. （ A） to keep the fields wet （ B） to store water （ C） to join canals （ D） to prevent farmers

46、reful not to smoke in such a way or in such a position that your smoke blows into others, faces. If you are a guest in a home where no others are smoking, it is better to refrain from smoking. If you think they would not mind your smoking, you may say, “Would you mind if I smoked?“ and await their a

47、ssurance (承诺 ) before lighting up. There are many places where people do not or should not smoke: public meetings, movies and plays, stores, ball-rooms, trains (except in the smoking car), buses (except in the back seats), at the dinner table (except when invited by the hostess near the end of the m

48、eal to do so). Many people feel that ladies should not smoke on the street. Be a clean smoker Use an ash receiver and put out the cigarette completely when you are finished. Be very careful where you put down your lighted cigarette; it is thoughtless and inconsiderate to allow your cigarette to burn
