The official said to the girl, “This man want to
23、take you home-side make wife. Can do, no can do?“ She said shyly, “Can do“, and the official pronounced them man and wife. Pidgin English, though sometimes regarded as“ baby talk“, is a useful language spoken in a large part of Pacific islands. About 30 to 50 million people speak some form of it. Pi
24、dgin English we know today was born on the Chinese coast 300 years ago when the Western nations first began to trade there. The Western merchants and the Chinese communicated with each other by using Westerners words and Chinese sentence patterns. The result became known as “business“ language, or b
25、ecause the closest Chinese could come to pronounce business as “bishin“ or later “bijin“-at last “pidgin“.

26、ible. （ B） This man wants to know if you are married If not, will you marry me? （ C） This man wants you to find a wife for him.

You dont show your secret p
29、ersonality when youre awake because you can control your behavior, but when youre asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their positions. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in. If you go to sleep on your back, you
30、re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You dont like to displease people, so you never express your real feelings. Youre quite shy and you arent quite sure of yourself. If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. Y
31、ou worry a lot and youre always easily upset. You always stick to your own opinions and judgements, but you dont raise your hopes too much. You usually live for today not tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time. If you sleep curled up you are probably a very nervous person. You have a
32、 low opinion of yourself and so youre often defensive. Youre shy and you dont normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. Youre easily hurt. If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. Youre usually careful. You
33、 believe in yourself. You sometimes feel anxious, but you dont often get sad. You always say what you think even if it makes people rather angry. 55 According to the passage, a person who is not willing to change his mind and hard to deal with, probably sleeps _. （ A） on his side （ B） on his back （

Police records that were studied for five years from over 2,400 cities and towns show a surprising link between changes in the season and crime patterns, The pattern of crime has varied very lit
38、tle over a long period of years. Murder reaches its high during July and August, as do other violent attacks. Murder, moreover, is more than seasonal, it is a weekend crime. It is also a night-crime 62 percent of murders are committed(干，犯 ) between 6 p. m. and 6 Am. Unlike the summer high in crimes
39、of bodily harm, robbing has a different cycle. You are most likely to be robbed between 6 p.m. and 2am. on a Saturday night in December, January, or February. The month with least crimes of all is in May except for one strange fact. More dog bites are reported in this month than in any other month o
40、f the year. Clearly our seasonal cycles of knowledge are completely different from our tendencies for crimes. Professor Huntington made extensive studies to discover the seasons when people read serious books, attend scientific meetings and get highest results on examinations. In all cases, he found
41、 a spring high and autumn high separated by a summer low. Possibly, high temperature and high humidity(湿度 )cause our strange and violent summer actions, but police officials are not sure. “There is, of course, no proof of a connection between humidity and murder,“ they say,“ Why murders high time sh
42、ould come in the summer time we really dont know.“ 59 A good title of the passage would be _. （ A） Crime Cycles （ B） Summer Crimes （ C） A Time for Murder （ D） The Most Peaceful Month 60 According to the passage, _. （ A） there is a link between changes in the seasons and crime patterns （ B） crime is
43、not linked to the cycle of the weekdays （ C） there is sure connection between robbing and murder （ D） there is a connection between murder and cold weather 61 A murder would most likely occur _. （ A） on a weekend night in summer （ B） on a weekend afternoon in summer （ C） on a weekend night in winter
44、 （ D） on a weekend afternoon in spring 62 Which of the following statements is not true? （ A） The police records were collected from a large number of cities and towns. （ B） The pattern of crime varies from year to year. （ C） Our cycles of learning are different from those of wrong action. 63 In thi
45、s crisis(危机 ) I think I may be pardoned if I do not address the House at any length today, and I hope that any of my friends and colleagues or former colleagues who are affected by the political reconstruction will make all allowances for any lack of ceremony (礼仪 )with which it has been necessary to
46、 act. I say to the House as I said to Ministers who have joined this government, I have nothing to offer but blood, toil(辛苦 ), sweat and tears. We have before us an ordeal(考验 ) of the most grievous (极大的 )kind. We have before us many, many months of struggle and suffering. You ask, what is our policy
47、? I say is to wage (开展 )war by land, sea and air. War with all our might and with all the strength God has given us, and to wage war against a monstrous tyranny(残暴 ) never surpassed (超越 )in the dark and lamentable (可恶的 )catalogue of human crime. That is our policy. You ask, what is our aim? I can an
48、swer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs-victory in spite of all terrors-victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival. Let that be realized. No survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no surv
49、ival for the urge, the impulse (动力 )of the ages, that mankind shall move forward toward his goal. I take up my task in buoyancy(快乐 ) and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men. I feel entitled(有权利的 )at this juncture, at this time, to claim the aid of all and to say, “come then, let us go forward together with our united strength“. 63 The first paragraph tells mainly about _. （ A） the cris
