I thought I had better reply myself since, as you know, your brother is not very good at writing letters. You asked whether Wai-mings application(申請) for a scholarship(獎學(xué)金) had been successful(成功的). Well, as you can see by now, it was. He is doing a one-year postgraduate course(研究生課程) in world history here at Lancaster University(大學(xué)). The little house we live in is near the University. We have to buy a used car which is necessary because the bus service here is very poor. We arrived in England at the beginning of September, and stayed in London for three weeks with my cousin Kwok, who owns a large restaurant there. This was the first time he had met my husband. Then we went to Cambridge for a week, where Wai-ming had to attend(參加) a meeting, and after that we came up to Lancaster and had two weeks to find somewhere to live and generally got organized(使有條理) before Wai-mings course began. The weather has been quite a change from home. Last week we had some snow, the first we had ever seen. We went outside and threw snowballs at each other, just like children! We get on very well with most of the English people we have met, although we had some difficulty at first understanding the northern accent(口音). Well, thats about all our news. Wai-mings course is going well, and if he passes his exam we will be free to return home in July.Love, Sally41.Wai-mings mother is _.A. Irenes auntB. Sallys mother-in-lawC. Kwoks nieceD.

I had. This surprising adventure happened to me in Alberta, Canada. I had gone there to visit Mr Alberts animal farm and write a story about it. Mr. Albert came to pick me up. When he opened his car door. I saw someone else in the front seat. It was a cheetah(獵豹) !Its all right. Mr Elliot. Hes tame， said Mr Albert. His name is Tawana. I slid slowly into the seat beside Tawana. There was not really room for three. Tawana soon hopped into the back seat. He did not look too pleased !But in the next few days I learned to trust the other strange pets (寵物) on Mr. Alberts Game Farm. Mr Albert gave them plenty of food, kindness and also a feeling of freedom. So they are not hungry or afraid of people. Theres a fence around my land, he said. But the animals have so much land they dont seem to mind the fence. Mr Albert began to study and to care for animals when he was very young. Now he has his Game Farm which has more animals than any zoo in Canada. Many people come to visit the farm. But Mr Albert does not run it just for the visitors. He keeps them in order to save them. Money is not the most important part. He is now known as the best friend of wild animals.45. The writer of this story is named _. A. Mr Albert B. Tawana C. cheetah D. Mr Elliot46.

Scientists once thought that there might be some kind of life under the clouds. Recently, they have found that it is too hot- 400C - for any life. Why is it so hot then? The answer is very simple - because the air has much CO2 in it. CO2 allows the heat of the sun to come to the ground. But it prevents the heat from going out. This is called the green house effect. Thus most of the heat from the sun is kept in the air forever. The temperature goes up every year, and it is 400C now.Holland is a small country in Europe. She is afraid that her land will be under sea water by the year 2050. Why? It is because we use much paper every day, and cut down many trees. By 2050, we will have cut down all the trees in the rain forests in the world. Then there wont be enough trees to change CO2 in the air into oxygen (氧氣). Scientists in Holland say, Here on the earth, we see more CO2 in the air than before, as a result of industrialization. With more CO2 in the air, the temperature will go up little by little every year. Then the climate on the earth will change, the ice will melt (融化) out in the South and North Pole, and the sea level will rise. Such a low land as Holland will be under the water. The United Nations suggested that all leaders in the world should meet to discuss cutback of CO2. Other people in Europe have started Green Earth Movement. They try to keep the earth green. No one would like to change our green earth into another Venus. 49. On the surface of Venus, it is very hot _. A. but some kind of life lives there B. and the heat of the sun produces more CO2 in the air C. because it looks red D. with much CO2 in the air 50. If we have more CO2 in the air every year, _. A. the temperature will go up and we will be able to enjoy a warm climate forever B. the temperature will go up, and the ice in the South and North Pole will melt C. we wont be able to breathe the air by 2050 D. the water on the earth will be polluted51. In order to prevent the increase of CO2 in the air, the United Nations _. A. started to cutback CO2 B. started Green Peace Movement C. is trying to make our earth more beautiful D. brought forward a meeting of all the national leaders 52. According to the passage, which of the following is not true? A. The earth is becoming warmer and warmer with more CO2 in the air. B. On Venus, the temperature in the air is so high that no life can be seen. C. The climate will change because CO2 in the air is changing. D. Holland will cut down all the rain forests by 2050. D CARDIFF, Wales - Poets, singers and musicians from across the globe gathered Wales to celebrate the tradition (傳統(tǒng)) of storytelling . It might seem strange that people still want to listen in age of watching television, but, this is an unusual art form whose time has come again, said David Ambrose, director of Beyond the Border, an international storytelling festival (節(jié)) in Wales. Some of the tales, like those of the Inuit from Canada, are thousands of years old. So our storytellers have come from distant lands to connect us with the distance of time, he said early this month. Two Inuit women, both in their mid 60s, are among the few remaining who can do kntadjait, or throat singing, which has few words and much sound. Their art is governed by the cold of their surroundings, forcing them to say little but listen attentively. Ambrose started the festival in 1993, after several years of working with those reviving (coming back into use or existence) storytelling in Wales. It came out of a group of people who wanted to reconnect with traditions. And as all the Welsh are storytellers, it was in good hands here, Ambrose said.53. Ambrose believes that the art of storytelling _. A. will be more popular than TV B. will be popular again C. started in Wales D. are in the hands of some old people54. From the tales told by the Inuit, people can learn _. A. about their life as early as thousands of years ago B. why they tell the stories in a throat-singing way C. how cold it has been where the Inuit live D. how difficult it is to understand the Inuit55. According to the writer, which of the following is not true? A. Storytelling once stopped in Wales. B. Storytelling has a long history in Wales. C. Storytelling is always well received in Wales. D. Storytelling did not come back until t993 in Wales.56. The underlined phrase in good hands means _. A. controlled by rich people B. grasped by good storytellers C. taken good care of D. protected by kind people試 卷 II五、短文改錯（本題有8小題，共8分）A woman driving a small foreign car with two childrenwere stopped in a long line of cars and trucks in a 57._street leading out of the city.
