    People have used pigeons to carry messages to one another for hundreds of years. In the 12th century, the royal palaces of Iraq and Syria included pigeon houses so the kings could be kept informed of their generals’ victories and defeats on the battlefield. In fact, pigeons were a common way to send messages right up through World War II.
    Many countries, such as the United States, England, France, Germany, and Italy, in both World War I and World War II, used carrier pigeons. Not only were the birds often the fastest, most reliable way to send messages, they could also be used to reach soldiers far behind enemy lines, where radios and field telephone lines were useless. Since they could easily be released (释放) from airplanes or ships, every branch of the armed services used the birds. In World War II, more than 3,000 soldiers and 150 officers were needed to care for and train the tens of thousands of birds in the U.S. Pigeon Service.
    Carrying messages could be a dangerous job. Some pigeons performed with such bravery that they became famous and were even awarded medals, such as England’s Dicken Medal of Gallantry. In a few cases, pigeons even became prisoners of war. In 1918 American forces captured a pigeon named Kaiser, which had been trained to fly special missions for Germany during battle. He was taken to America, where he lived to the age of 32. The most famous pigeon of all may have been Cher Ami. Stationed in France during World War I, he carried twelve important messages for American forces. On his last mission, though wounded, he carried a message that saved the lives of 194 American soldiers. For his extraordinary service, he was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre.”
    Carrier pigeons are a slightly different breed (品种) from the kind of pigeons you see on city streets. They are much thinner and taller, with longer legs. Many people find carrier pigeons ugly because of their big wattle, a bent buildup of skin on the beak（鸟嘴）; however, people who raise pigeons often enjoy this strange appearance and consider carriers the best of their breed.
    Today, modern communication methods can carry information from one place to another hundreds of times faster than a pigeon could do. However, few people would argue with the fact that carrier pigeons—especially those that served in the military—have earned their place in history. Stories about brave pigeons such as Cher Ami, President Wilson, and Colonel’s Lady have the power to inspire us as no fax machine or high-speed Internet connection could ever do.
    【小题1】Many countries used carrier pigeons in the war because_______.

    A．they could be believed in
    B．they were easily raised
    C．they could reach the enemy lines
    D．they could hardly be found by airplanes
    【小题2】Which is the best example to show the bravery of carrier pigeons?
    A．Carrier pigeons could fly to places where radios and telephone lines were useless.
    B．For his extraordinary service, Cher Ami was awarded the French “Croix de Guerre”.
    C．In World War II, more than 3,000 soldiers were needed to care for and train the pigeons.
    D．In the 12th century, kings in Iraq were kept informed of the victories and defeats by pigeons.
    【小题3】From the passage, we can learn _________.
    A．how carrier pigeons developed in history
    B．how to train carrier pigeons to get victory
    C．carrier pigeons played an important role in the wars in the old days
    D．pigeons inspired soldiers to fight before high-speed Internet invented

    My Year Abroad                                                           
    This month in Travelers Corner there are three teenagers’ experiences in year-abroad programmes.
    Mariko Okada – Tokyo
    My year abroad in the United States was a fantastic experience. I’m not a shy person, and I was very comfortable speaking to everyone. So I got lots of speaking practice. I also learned lots of interesting things about American culture. When I got home, my friends all said that I had improved so much! I hope to go back again in the future.
    Carla Fonseca – Rio de Janeiro
    I spent last year studying English in London. I’m from a small town, and London is a very big city. Sometimes I felt it was too big. There were so many people to talk to, but I always felt bad about my English. I missed my family, and I really missed my two cats. My roommate was always using our telephone, so I hardly had the chance for a nice long talk with my parents. I think it was a good experience for me, but I’m glad to be home!
    Alvin Chen – Hong Kong
    Studying in New Zealand was a fun experience for me, but it was also lots of hard work! I had English classes six hours a day, five days a week——with lots of homework. I also kept a diary of my experience. I like to write, and I wrote two or three pages in my diary every day. On Saturdays, my homestay family took me to lots of interesting places and showed me so many wonderful things about the culture. I’m really glad I went!
    【小题1】All the three teenagers went abroad           .

    A．to study EnglishB．to visit friends
    C．to have a holidayD．to find a job
    【小题2】Who didn’t really enjoy the stay in a foreign country very much?

    【小题3】Travelers Corner is most probably         .
    A．a sports club newsletterB．a science documentary

    We spent a few days in Paris last week. We visit the famous city quite regularly. After all, it only takes three hours from London to Pairs. It’s always a pleasure visiting places we really like, exploring areas we’ve never been.

    The only unlucky thing this time was the weather. As soon as we got there the temperature reached almost 35 degrees C (which lasted until we left). It was so hot that Matthew just couldn’t stand it — for him, it wasn’t the most enjoyable trip. I felt sorry for him because every time we go there he has to put up with (忍受) my endless shopping spree (狂欢) …

    Because of the heat, we ended up just having lots of ice-cream and drinks most of the time, although we managed to pay a few visits to the new Herme shop on rue de Vaugirard at least. It’s not as busy as the shop on rue Bonaparte so you can choose whatever you like without worrying about a queue behind you! I really enjoyed his bread this time as well as the cakes. And I must say that his Croissant aux Amandes and Bostock were simply the best I’ve ever had.

    1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

    A．It was the first time for the writer to go to Paris.

    B．It was a long way from London to Paris.

    C．The writer lives in London.

    D．The writer only likes to go to places she has never been to.

    2. The underlined word “stand” in the second paragraph means ____.

    A．享受

    B．忍受

    C．站立

    D．位于

    3. What can you know about Matthew from the second paragraph? 

    A．He doesn’t like shopping.

    B．He doesn’t like travelling.

    C．He is one of the writer’s relatives.

    D．He isn’t a good husband.

    4. The shops on rue Bonaparte ____.

    A．has no bread that the writer likes

    B．is often crowded with customers

    C．don’t have anything the writer likes

    D．is not very busy all the time

    5.What’s the best title for the passage? 

    A．An unpleasant trip

    Brazil (巴西) is the greatest football nation in the world. There are 100 million Brazilians (巴西人). How many of them are football fans? 100 million! All of them think that they know all about football. This makes life very difficult for the Brazilian team manager. When things go badly for the Brazilian team, the newspaper would demand (要求) that the team manager should leave his job. “If we win, they put me in heaven (天堂),” as a manager once said, “If we lose, they put me in hell (地狱).”

    You can’t escape football in Brazil. There are football matches on every street and beach. On television, the results of the football matches come before the main news programs. There are six television channels in Rio de Janeiro. On Sundays each channel shows a different football match.

    Brazil is not the richest country in the world, but the government spends huge sums of money on football. It cost more than one billion pounds to prepare for the 1978 World Cup. That’s 10 pounds for every Brazilian man, woman, and child. And many Brazilians don’t earn as much as 10 pounds a week. Is it worth it?

    “Brazil must have a great football team,” says one journalist. “If it costs one billion pounds, that’s all right. If the government doesn’t give a good football team, then it will become unpopular. Football is more than a game in Brazil.”

    Football is more than a game in Brazil. This is certainly true in its largest city, Sao Paulo. The most popular team is Corinthians. Corinthians’ fans are the most loyal (忠实的) and emotional in Brazil. When Corinthians win, production in the Sao Paulo car factories increases by fifteen per cent. When they lose, it drops. At one time Corinthians won the national championship for the first time. For four days fans danced and sang in the streets.

    74. In Brazil the number of football fans and its population are __________.

    A. the same       B. less                   C. more           D. 100 billion

    75. Life for __________ is no easy, for he will be put in hell if the football team loses.

    A. a football fan      B. any government official          C. the Brazilian team manager     D. a football player

    76. It is the __________ that come before the main news programs on television.

    A. football matches                   B. results of football matches

    C. football matches on the streets           D. football matches on the beaches

    77. The government spent __________ in preparing for the 1978 World Cup though the country was not rich.

    A. one billion dollars      B. one million pounds      C. one billion pounds      D. one million RMB

    78. Football is more than a game in Brazil. The underlined sentence means “In Brazil __________.”

    A. people like football very much     B. there is something else in football

    C. people are keen on competition    D. football has influences (影响) on the politics and economy of the nation

    79. The best title of the passage is __________.

    A. Brazilians and Football            B. Brazilians’ Way of Life

    C. Football and Income             D. Football and Government
