12.The outdoor billboard presents a masked health worker in a protective suit appearing over a bed-ridden patient.Above them,bright red letters warn people on a busy street in Abidjan,Ivory Coast that"The Ebola risk is always there."
As the country tries to keep off an Ebola outbreak destroying neighboring West African states,such serious reminders of the catastrophe unfolding across its western border are everywhere.The worst recorded outbreak of the virus has killed more than 2,622 people in Liberia,Sierra Leone and Guinea and has also spread to Nigeria and Senegal.Yesterday it was confirmed there were 5,335 cases diagnosed,though that figure may be inaccurate as most patients are at home not in hospital.
If Ebola reaches Ivory Coast,the powerhouse of French-speaking West Africa,the economic consequences could be huge.The country exports 40 percent of the world's cocoa,the raw material for chocolate,an d supplies its landlocked neighbors with everything from rice to fuel.
The country is therefore taking the kind of aggressive anti-infection measures.Hand-washing stations have appeared at the entrance of government buildings and office towers i n Abidjan.People have also abandoned the traditional three-kiss greeting.Mass text messages have been sent out nationwide.And children,exposed to warnings on radio and television,separate their classmates in a playground game they call"Ebola".
Coast government has even imposed strict measures at its borders.Flights to and from Guinea,Sierra Leone and Liberia have been banned-arousing anger in those count ries-and last month the western border was shut.
"The infectious disease,particularly in Sierra Leone and Liberia,is outpacing our attempts to control it,"said Marc Poncin."Ivory Coast is the country most at risk.It's probably a matter of time before it appears in Ivory Coast."
Citizens of Abidjan are cautious.On packed public buses,people try to avoid touching."It's often difficult because you can't avoid human contact,"said student Cesar Kouakou."But we try to do it because no one knows what causes this sickness."

3.Robinson Crusoe is a famous novel written by Daniel Defoe.The book tells the story of a man who is shipwrecked (遭遇海難的).He spends 28 years on an island near Venezuela.The book tells the story of everything that happens to Robinson Crusoe.He hopes someone will rescue him,but he has been there for so long on his own that he also begins to fear being rescued.
Robinson Crusoe was published in 1719.Most experts believe the story is based on the life of Alexander Selkirk,who was a Scottish sailor.On an expedition in 1704,Selkirk had an argument with his ship's captain.Selkirk thought the ship was not safe and was about to fall apart.
When the ship stopped at a remote island to get fresh water,Selkirk got off.He tried to get the other crew members to leave with him,but nobody would.The shop then sailed away without him.Selkirk spent four years and four months on his own on the island,known as Aguas Buenas.
Selkirk was finally rescued by a ship that visited the island in 1709.The ship's captain was grateful to Selkirk because he provided food for the crew when they arrived.
Now archaeologists think they have found the remains of Selkirk's camp on Aguas Buenas.They found two deep holes that would have held wooden posts.The archaeologists say this is evidence that Selkirk built a shelter there.The post holes are near a fresh water stream.They are located quite high up,which would have meant that Selkirk was able to watch out for the ships coming close to the island.
The most interesting evidence,the archaeologists say,is part of a piece of equipment used by sailors to navigate.Historians believe Selkirk was a navigator,so the instrument could have belonged to him.
Robinson Crusoe was published ten years after Selkirk was rescued.Most experts think Daniel Defoe heard and read stories about Selkirk,which inspired him to write the book.

63.Why did Selkirk choose to land on the remote island?D
A.Because he had quarrels with the crew members.
B.Because the captain ordered him to get fresh water.
C.Because he wanted to go on an adventure there.
D.Because he thought the ship he was on was in danger.
64.We can infer from the text that the ship that visited Aguas Buenas in 1709B.
A.lost its way while sailing
B.was running out of food upon arrival
C.was being navigated by Selkirk
D.lacked fresh water upon arrival
65.How could Selkirk see ships that might rescue him,according to archaeologists?C
A.By asking the crew members on the ships.
B.By sending messages to the ships'captains.
C.By watching from his shelter high on the island.
D.By using a piece of equipment used to navigate.
66.The author wrote the text toA.
A.explain the origin of Robinson Crusoe
B.promote sales to Robinson Crusoe
C.criticise Alexander Selkrik's deeds
D.praise Daniel Defoe for his writing inspiration.

19.Proverbs are quite common in spoken English.We don't normally put them in a composition or a letter.Sometimes it is helpful if you know what common proverbs mean.Here are a few examples.
1)"Once bitten,twice shy."If a dog bites me,I shall be twice as careful in future when I see it.This proverb is also used to apply to many things and not only to dogs.If you have been cheated at a shop,you will not go to the same shop again.
2)"A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush."If I am a hunter,trying to catch birds,it is better to catch one than to see two birds in a bush but not able to catch them.Thus this means that what you have already got is better than the chance of being able to get something bigger in future.
3)"Too many cooks spoil the broth (soup)".When too many people do something,they get in each other's way and do a bad job.
4)"To pour oil on troubled waters"is to try to calm things down.Oil is lighter than water.If a ship is in trouble at sea,another ship may come to help it.The second ship can send small boats to rescue people.However,it may first pour oil on the sea to make the sea less rough.
5)"Don't be a dog in a manger(槽)"means"Don't be selfish."In a stable (馬房 ),the manger is the place where the horse's food is put.Sometimes a dog will sleep in the manger and bark when a horse comes to get its food.The dog does not want to eat the hay in the manger but it will not let the horse eat it.
6)"He is sitting on the fence"means that somebody will not say whether he is in favor of a plan or against it.He is sitting on a fence between two opposing sides,perhaps waiting to see which side will win.
7)"He who pays the piper calls the tune."A piper is a musician.The man who employs or pays a musician can say what tunes the musician will play.Thus this means that if a man provides the money for a plan,he can say how it will be carried out.
8)"You can't get blood out of a stone"means that you cannot get something from a person who has not got any of the things you want.e.g.you cannot get a million dollars from a poor man.
1.Peter has a bicycle which is much too small for him but he does not want to let his younger brother ride on it.His mother is angry and says to him:B.
A.You can't get blood out of a stone  
B.Don't be a dog in a manger
C.The early bird gets the worm     
D.To pour oil on troubled waters
2.Mr.Wang paid for a new school.Some people didn't like the design of the school but they didn't argue with Mr.Wang becauseC.
A.he was sitting on the fence       
B.once bitten,twice shy
C.he who pays the piper calls the tune 
D.a(chǎn) bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
3.Mrs.Lin wanted to buy a new dress.Her husband suggested that she buy it from a shop near their home.Mrs.Lin disagreed because she had been cheated by that shop.So she said:"I won't go there again becauseC."
A.a(chǎn) bird in the hand is worth two in the bush    
B.I am sitting on the fence
C.once bitten,twice shy             
D.too many cooks spoil the broth
4.Mr.Brown had quite a good job in Hong Kong but he thought that if he went to Singapore,he might get a much better job with more money and a larger house.His wife didn't want him to leave his job in Hong Kong and she reminded him thatA.
A.a(chǎn) bird in the hand is worth two in the bush    
B.too many cooks spoil the broth
C.you cannot get blood out of a stone
