三. 閱讀理解(每小題2分,共40分)
The horsepower was first used two hundred years ago. James Watt had made the world’s first widely used steam engine. He had no way of telling people exactly how powerful it was, for at that time there were no units for measuring power.
Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute. He called that unit one horsepower. With this unit he could measure the work his steam engine could do.
He discovered that a horse could lift a 3,300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine could lift a 3,300 pound weight 100 feet in one minute.

Immediately I got up and dressed, stuck my violin under my jacket, and went out into the streets to try my luck. I wandered about for an hour, looking for a likely spot, feeling as though I were about to commit a crime. Then I stopped at last under a bridge near the station and decided to have a try.
I felt tense and nervous. One moment I was part of the hurrying crowds, the next I stood apart, my back to the wall, my hat on the pavement before me, the violin under my chin.
The first notes I played were loud and raw, then they settled down and began to run more smoothly. To my surprise I was neither caught nor told to shut up. Indeed, nobody took any notice at all. Then an old man without stopping secretly threw a penny into my hat, as if getting rid of some guilty evidence.
Other pennies followed, slowly but steadily, dropped by shadows who appeared not to see or hear me. It seemed too easy, like a secret trick.
I worked there for several days, gradually getting the truths of the trade by trial and error(反復(fù)試驗).It was not a good thing, for example, to let the hat fill up with money; nor was it wise to empty it completely. Placing a couple of pennies in the hat to start the thing going soon became a regular rule.
41.When he first began to play the violin, he expected           .
A.to get into trouble                                                               B.to play better than he did
C.people to stop and listen to him             D.to be told to move somewhere else

A.was too busy to stop                            B.wanted to get rid of him               
C.dropped the money by mistake              D.did not want to attract attention
43.He gradually became confident that day because           .
A.nobody looked at him                          B.he played the violin very well       
C.people continued to give him money      D.he earned a lot of money
44.On the following days, he           .
A.made a lot of mistakes                         B.learned how to do the job better    
C.get better at playing the violin               D.did not make so much money
45.He found that the best way of encouraging people to give him money was to          .
A.play in different streets                        B.leave all the money in the hat
