Direction: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest words.

 (Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

From Buckingham Palace to Oxford, the UK is loaded with wonderful icons(標志) of past eras. But it has also modernized with confidence. It’s now better known for vibrant(充滿活力的) cities with great nightlife and attraction. Fashions, fine dining, clubbing, shopping — the UK is among the world’s best.

Most people have strong preconceptions about the British. But if you’re one of these people, you’d be wise to abandon those ideas. Visit a nightclub in one of the big cities, a football match, or a good local pub and you might more readily describe the English people as humorous and hospitable. It’s certainly true that no other country in the world has more bird-watchers, sports supporters, pet owners and gardeners than the UK.

Getting around England is pretty easy. Budget airlines like Easyjet and Rynnair fly domestically. Trains can deliver you very efficiently from one major city to another. Long distance express buses are called coaches. Where coaches and buses run on the same route, coaches are more expensive (though quicker) than buses. London’s famous black cabs are excellent but expensive. Minicabs are cheaper competitors, with freelance (個體的) drivers. But usually you need to give a call first. London’s underground is called the Tube. It’s very convenient and can get you to almost any part of the city.

The UK is not famous for its food. But you still need to know some of the traditional English foods. The most famous must be fish and chips. The fish and chips are deep fried in flour. English breakfast is something you need to try. It is fried bacon, with toast and a pot of tea. Other things like shepherd’s pie and Yorkshire pudding are also well-known as a part of English food culture.

Pubbing and Clubbing are the main forms of English nightlife, especially for the young. Pubbing means going to a pub with friends, having drinks, and chatting. Clubbing is different from pubbing and includes going to a place of music, or a bar, or any other place to gather with friends. Clubbing can be found everywhere. Usually there is some kind of dress code for clubbing, such as no jeans, no sportswear, while pubbing is much more casual.

If you are involved in the real life of local residents, you may find them ______________________________.

How many kinds of transportation forms are mentioned in the third paragraph? Give examples (at least four).

_____________________________________________________________.

When you go clubbing in the UK, you should not ______________________________. 

What aspects are introduced about UK according to the passage?

_____________________________________________________________.

四.閱讀理解。(40分)
(A)
Overhead bridges are found in many parts of. Beijing, especially in places where   traffic is very heavy and crossing the road is dangerous.
The purpose of these bridges is to enable pedestrians to cross roads safely. Over-   head bridges are used in very much the same way as zebra crossings. They are more ef-                                                       ficient although less convenient because people have to climb up a long flight of steps.   This is inconvenient especially to older people. When pedestrians use an overhead   bridge, they do not hold up traffic. However, when they cross a busy road using a ze-   bra crossing, traffic is held up, this is why the government has built many overhead   bridges to help pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time.
The government of Beijing has spent a large amount of money in building these   bridges. For their own safety, pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of   risking their lives by dashing across the road. Old people, however, may find it a little   difficult to climb up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across   the road with all the danger of moving traffic.
Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. Pedestrians, both old and young, should make it a habit to use them. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and loss of life.
1. What is the advantage (優(yōu)點)of overhead bridges mentioned in this passage?
A. Taller trucks can pass under them.

C. A safe place across a road for zebra to walk across the road
D. A safe place across a road for children to play a game.
4. What is the writer's attitude(態(tài)度) towards overhead bridge?
A. It is inconvenient for older people to walk across the road.

Many people in the world live in big cities, which are often dirty and difficult places to live. So, some cities will get bigger. They will also get higher, and lower, because people will begin to live under the ground as well as in tall buildings. Scientists also say that men can begin to live in cities under the sea, when there is not enough space on the land. Of course, these new cities will be very expensive, and difficult to build, but they are not impossible. Already, some countries are building places to live under the ground so their people can go there if there is a new war. There are underground cities in Switzerland(瑞士)and China, built by the government(政府)to help some of the people live during a great war. 

But will people change if they live under the ground for a long time?For example some fish go blind if they live in the dark sea for a long time. People will not go blind, because there will be light underground, but they may change in some way. Scientists say that people who live in cities today are losing their senses of smell, touch and taste. They can’t smell the dirty air, they can’t taste the chemicals(化學制劑)in their food. These senses are not as strong as before, when people lived in the country and grew their own food. The city has changed that. What will the underground city change in everyone?
