Choose the best answerMy favorite area in Britain is a country called Northumberland in the north-east of the country.
27、I like it because it has mountains, the sea and history. The mountains are not very high. In China you would probably call them hills rather than mountains as they are less than 1,000 meters high, but there is something wild about these mountains you get a feeling of space and freedom. You can walk
28、for miles without 5meeting another person.Northumberland is full of history. There are seven castles, some of them were ruined and the others still there as they were centuries ago. You can find graves going back to prehistoric（史前的）, times and strange carvings on rocks which nobody understands. The
29、coast line is dramatic too, with beautiful sandy beaches. These beaches are rarely crowded because the weather is unpredictable and the North Sea is very cold! People dont go for seaside holidays to Northumberland because of the cold sea and weather, so even in high season there arent many tourists.
30、There is an island called Holy Island off the coast of Northumberland, you can get to the island by car or on foot when the tide is out. There is also one castle I particularly like. It is a 14th century castle which stands on a cliff right by the sea. The castle is almost completely ruined, but it
31、looks dramatic and romantic because you can still see the gate and two of its owners. On a summers day you can lie on the beach nearby and let your mind wander as you look at this dream-like castle. On a winters day you can walk to the castle and watch the waves crash into the cliff, wondering how t
32、his castle has stood so long against the forces of nature.I once said to a friend of mine that I thought this castle by the sea was the most beautiful place in the world. She laughed and said there must be many more dramatic places in the world. In one way, Im sure shes right, but for me, its not ju
33、st about what a place looks like, its about what it says to you.69. In China people probably call them mountains which are _ 1,000 meters high.A. less than B. nearly C. more than D. almost70.

39、 a hug?” I laughed and responded, “Of course you may!” and she gave me a big one.We became immediate friends. Every day for the next three months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I always loved listening to this time machine _77_ she shared her wisdom and experience with me. Over the
40、 course of this year Rose became a campus role model and she _78_ made friends wherever she went.

44、 D. differenceC. Fill in the blanks with proper words.Children grow quickly, especially their feet. But many families, cannot a_81_ new shoes when a child needs them. As a result, about 300 million children around the world go barefoot. Those children risk picking up diseases and parasites（寄生虫）from
45、the soil.An American man has a s_82_ for those barefoot kids a shoe that grows with the child. Kenton Lee is the creator of The Shoe That Grows. He explains how the shoe works and how it is able to last so long.“It grows in three places: the front, the side and the back with the child. It can last u
46、p to five years. The b_83_ is compressed（压缩的）rubber like tire rubber. The top is just high-quality leather.”7The shoe comes in two sizes: small that fits children aged 4 to 9 and large for children aged 9 to 14. Lee says he got the idea for the shoe while working as a v_84_ in an orphanage in Kenya.
47、 “ and there was a little girl in a white dress walking next to me. And I just remember looking down and seeing how small her shoes were. And she had to c_85_ open the front of her shoes to let her toes（脚趾）stick out. At that time I just remember thinking, wouldnt it be nice if there were a pair of s
