2. Passage 19 Throughout her working life， a ship — like a motorcar — must be serviced regularly if she is to remain efficient. After a period at sea she must be overall checked and any necessary repairs must be made. There are also instances when a ship must be converted from being one kind of carrier to another. Most of today‘s oil， for example， is carried by huge super-tankers. The smaller tankers， many of which are still in good condition， can be converted into bulk carriers(散货船) for the transport of sugar， coal or ore. Conversion or repair work is carried out in a dry dock， a huge hole cut into the ground and lined with concrete. At one end are large gates separating the dock from the river or sea. When these gates are opened， water pours into the dock and fills it. A ship can then enter the dock， where it is carefully fastened in an upright position. When the ship is positioned inside the dock， the gates are closed and the water is pumped out. The vessel slowly settles on to wooden blocks. Wooden supporters are put in position between the ship and the sides of the dock to prevent her from rolling over. Great care is taken to make sure that the ship rests evenly on the keel(龙骨)blocks to prevent damage being done. As soon as the ship is firmly positioned， repair or conversion work can begin on her body or superstructure. Many smaller tankers have been converted into bulk carriers because( ).

A. 　there is a shortage of oil in the world

B. 　large amounts of sugar， coal and ore is needed in the world market

C. 　most of today‘s oil is carried by huge super-tankers

4. Passage 4 Do you know who Benjamin Banneker was and what he did? Benjamin Banneker was a self-educated scientist at a time when most African Americans were slaves. Born a free black man in the British Colony of Maryland in 1731， he received some formal education， but he mostly borrowed books and taught himself science and mathematics. At 22， he borrowed a pocket watch， and without any training， figured out how to carve a working wooden clock that chimed each hour. Because of this clock， he became well known and people would visit him just to see his creation. Banneker ran his family farm from many years， but when he was in his late 50s， a neighbor‘s son lent him a telescope. He became interested in astronomy， the study of the planets and stars， and again taught himself a new science. He made calculations of tides， sunrises and sunsets， and even predicted an eclipse. For several years he published an almanac of these calculations. Today， he is best known for publishing six almanacs， called ―Benjamin Banneker‘s Almanac‖ between 1792 and 1797. In the 1790s， Banneker also helped survey and lay out the land for Washington， D. C.， which became the nation‘s capital. For a look at Banneker‘s amazing life， visit the Benjamin Banneker Historical Park & Museum in Ellicott City， Maryland. The word ―almanac‖ (Line 5， Para. 2) probably means.

A. 　a book

B. 　 an object

C. 　 a survey

D. 　 a diary

5. Passage 9 What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape? Do you know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage. Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family， such as stairways and fire escapes， but not lifts. From the lower floors of the buildings， escaping through windows is possible， learn the best way of leaving by windows with the last chance of serious injury. The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person， hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course， it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building. Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may leak into the room. On a second or third floor， the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement might end in injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall. The best title of the passage is( ).

A. 　Escaping from the Windows

B. 　 Save Yourself in the Burning House

C. 　 Knowledge on Fire

D. 　 Waiting for Help

24.The fog was so dense that nothing but what was around you within one or two meters was( ).
