Singapore’s public transport system (公共交通系统) is one of the best in the world, so you should have no problem finding your way around like a local . There are three main forms of public transport that you would find in any other major city—trains, buses and taxis.

TRAINS

Trains run from 6 a.m. to midnight. Single trip tickets start at 80 cents. If you buy an EZ-Link card for $15, you can ride the trains and buses all you like.

If you need more information, just call Transit Link on 1800 767 4333.

BUSES

There are several bus services in Singapore and fares (车费) start at 80 cents. Be sure to always ask the driver the cost of your ticket as he can not give changes.

TAXIS

There are three main taxi companies—City Cab (6552 2222), Comfort (6552 1111) and Tibs (6552 8888). Booking can also be made easily by calling the numbers listed above.

RENTAL (租) CARS    

     Driving in Singapore is a pleasure and if you like to travel at your own pace, renting a car is a good choice. Renting takes away the hassle of getting to places around Singapore.

How much pocket money do you get from your parents every month—200 yuan? Some may need more to buy birthday presents, fast food, ice creams or cartoon (动画) books.

But for Zhou Li, 30 yuan a month is enough. The only thing she buys is lunch—1.5 yuan each day. “My favorite food is fried potato slices and rice,” said Zhou, “meat is too expensive for me.”

Zhou, 14, is a Junior 1 student at Hongzhi Experimental School in Beijing. Her parents are migrant workers (外来务工人员). They are from a village in Luohe of Henan and came to Beijing two years ago. Her father now works as a cleaner and earns 500 yuan every month. Her mother has no job.    

Every day, Zhou gets up at 5: 30 a.m. and rides 20 minutes to school. She studies hard, and reads books even during break time. Her favorite subject is computer.“I’m learning typing now. I hope to be the fastest in my class.”said Zhou. Like many teens, Zhou has a lot of homework. It usually takes her at least one hour to finish it every day. But that is not all her work. She helps her mom cook. On weekends, she helps wash clothes.“I was able to cook when I was eight. My father said sometimes I cooked better than mom!”

Zhou said she wanted to be a doctor when she grew up.“I watched TV and found that there were many people with AIDS in Henan. Some are kids. They need help.”said Zhou. But she is afraid of having to leave school.“I hope I will always be in school,” said Zhou. “Dad works hard to make money. I promise him I will study hard to be a good student at present and a good doctor in the future.”

根据短文内容，判断正（T）误（F）。

Have you ever heard of a famous charity called Operation Smile? We hope we can help you understand how we are trying to help children all over the world.

Operation Smile was started by a doctor and his wife. In 1982, together with some volunteers, they went to Philippines to help children who had holes in their lips or inside their mouths. 38. It was very difficult for them to eat and drink. These volunteers worked very hard. But they worried that they could not carry on with the work because they were short of money. Then they decided to start a charity so that they could help these needy children. They called it Operation Smile.

Operation Smile works in more than twenty developing countries and has cured over 10,000 children who have problems with their mouths. Operation Smile has won many prizes for its work and in 1999 they even started a special event called“The World Journey of Hope”. 39.5,000 children in 18 countries are cured during the event.

On the other hand, Operation Smile trains local doctors and nurses in developing countries so that they can continue to help children when Operation Smile has left. As to the children with much more serious problems, they will send them to America for further treatment.    

So show your kindness and generosity to the needy children now. You can send your donation to Operation Smile at local banks. Many thanks from the children who can smile now will come to you.

Changes in My Hometown

In the past ten years, great changes have taken place in my hometown. In the past, there used to be old houses. The river was very dirty. The roads were narrow and the living conditions were hard.

There are many ring roads and the living conditions are comfortable. People usually go to work by bus or by car.

Some of these persons are old but some are of twenty to thirty who choose to live alone. 35% of homes have two people living in them, and another 17% have three people, 15% have four people living in them, and the other homes have five or more.

The families in Britain are small. It is unusual for parents to have more than two children. When children are about eighteen or nineteen, they leave their parents’ home, and they often go to other cities. Sometimes they only visit their parents twice or three times a year.

A city without cars would be very strange, right? But Venice is such a city.

Venice is in the northeast of Italy. It wasn’t built on land, like Beijing or Shanghai, but on more than 110 islands. Seawater is everywhere around the city.    

Even so, travel isn’t difficult. The waterways have always been the best ways to get around. There are 117 waterways and more than 400 bridges that can guide you where you want to go. People in Venice move from place to place by boat. They like to enjoy the scenery and cool summer nights while taking boat trips. They can talk to other people as they go along.

Venice grew out of small islands in saltwater lakes when some Italians escaped from a war more than 1,500 years ago, and built homes there.

Water makes the city special, but it is also a big problem.

Once, people used too much underground water. This made the city get lower little by little. Now the city has gone down by 23 centimeters. Another problem is the rising seawater. The temperature has risen over the years. This has made the ice of the Arctic Ocean (北冰洋)

melt (融化).

Every year, high waters hit the city in autumn and winter. When a lot of water comes, more than half of the city is underwater.

Scientists are trying different ways to stop the city from getting even lower.

A. In Italy.                  B. In Canada.         C. In England.          D. In America.

(   )32. Which is the most impossible way for people in Venice to get around ?

A. On foot.        B. By boat.     C. By car.        D. By bike.

(   )33. Why is Venice still getting lower and lower?

A. Because too many people live there.

B. Because the rising temperature has made the ice melt.

C. Because lots of bridges have been built.

D. Because the underground water is rising.

(   )34. What seasons are dangerous for Venice because of high waters?

第二部分  基础知识运用

Ⅰ. 1.D  此句为so引导的完全倒装句，意为“A如此，B也如此。”其结构是so+be/助

       动词/情态动词+主语。本句为现在完成时，其助动词是have。故选D。

2.A  此句要用相同成分即上海的人口和沈阳的人口做比较。因为population是不可数名

词，所以用that代替。如果是复数名词则要用those来代替。故选A。

3.B  问人口的多少用what而不用how many。本题问的是2005年美国的人口， 故为一般过去时。故选B。

4.C  分数的表达法是基数词在前表示分子，序数词在后表示分母；当分子大于1时，表

       示分母的序数词要加s。故选C。

5.A  考查反意疑问句中简短问句部分的时态和人称的单复数要与陈述句部分一致。题中的He’s是He和has的缩写。故选A。    

6.C  考查increase的现在分词作定语。increasing表示“正在增长的”；increased是它的过去分词也可作定语，但表示的是“已增长过的”。故选C。

7.B  already“已经”，常用于现在完成时的肯定句中；yet“已经”，常用于现在完成时的疑问句和否定句中；still“仍，还”；once“一旦……”。故选B。

23.A  由上文可知，美国的学生在不同的俱乐部参加不同的活动。故选A。

24.D  第三段说的是美国的学生也学习别的语言。所以，此处应填表示转折的词，but“但是”表转折，because“因为”表原因，so“所以”表结果，and“和”表并列。故选D。      

25.B  考查主谓一致。主语是children,谓语动词应该用原形，所以D项错误。根据句意“美国儿童从七岁起就不得不学一门外语”，所以A项错误。根据文章内容，应该用一般现在时，C项错误。故选B。

The Population Problem

The population is one of the biggest problems in the world today. China has the largest population with 1.3 billion. It’s about one fifth of the world’s population. The large population causes many difficulties, not only for every family, but also for the whole nation. It has become a serious problem. In many less developed areas, some parents prefer boys to girls. As a result, many girls can’t go to school.

I think we should do something to control the population. One answer is known as the one-child policy. It has worked well in controlling China’s population.
