19、文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。ATo American visitors, Iceland is a very interesting country, partly because it is different in so many ways from what he or she is used to seeing at home. There are quite a few things that are not done, or that do not exist on the island - quite a few Nos.There is no pollution,

20、 for instance. No dogs are permitted in Reykjavik, the capital. There is no television on Thursdays or during the entire month of July, and only three hours of black-and-white TV the rest of the time. There is no hard liquor on Wednesdays and no beer at any time. There are no handguns; only one jail

21、 of thirty-five cells in the entire land an admirable figure, even for a small country of 313,376 people.There is no army, air force or navy. There is no tipping for anything. There are no large stores open on Saturdays or Sundays. Since Iceland is situated just under the Arctic Circle, there is no

22、darkness in summer and do daylight in winter. But thanks to Gulf Stream, the climate is rather mild, with temperatures ranging from 34 degrees Fahrenheit to 52 degrees in July.The rules on television, liquor, and guns are the result of governmental decision. But the absence of pollution is due in gr

23、eat part to the fact that Iceland gets its power from the enormous geyser（间歇泉）and the thousands of hot springs that come out of the ground. They provide all the energy needed by the country. In fact, Iceland uses only 3 percent of all its available power.Iceland has been described as a democratic in

24、dependent country where more fish are caught and more books published per person than anywhere else in the world. The Icelanders have always felt a particular love for literature. They composed their first works in the ninth and tenth centuries AD. These works were poems and tales about the kings, h

25、eroes, and heroines of Iceland and Norway. At first the stories were memorized and passed from generation to generation. They were finally writhing down between 1140 and 1220. The Icelanders have never stopped writing ever since. “Rather shoeless than bookless, they proudly say.41American visitors e

BA passenger told an air hostess that he needed a cup of water to take his medicine when the

29、 plane just took off. She told him that she would bring him the water in ten minutes. Thirty minutes later, when the passengers ring for service sounded, the air hostess flew in a flurryShe was kept so busy that she forgot to deliver him the waterAs a result, the passenger was held up to take his me

30、dicineShe hurried over to him with a cup of water, but he refused itIn the following hours on the flight, each time the stewardess passed by the passenger she would ask him with a smile whether he needed help or not. But the passenger never paid any attention to her.When he was going to get off the

31、plane, the passenger asked the air hostess to hand him the passengers booklet (意见簿). She was very sad. She knew that he would write down sharp words, which might result in the loss of her job. But with a smile she handed it to him.Off the plane, she opened the booklet, and cracked a smile, for the p

32、assenger put it, “On the flight, you asked me whether I need help or not for twelve times in all. How can I refuse your sincere smiles?”Thats right! Who can refuse your twelve sincere smiles from a person?45What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean? AThe air hostess forgot the passengers

33、 need on purpose. BThe air hostess suddenly realized that trouble was coming. CThe passenger wasnt angry at being ignored. DThe passenger was refused to be served.46According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE? AThe passenger refused to take his medicine. BThe passenger set down his ange

AForgiving. BCurious. CSharp. DEnthusiastic.48As a result, the air hostess would probably . Aget fired by her c

35、ompany Bbe hired by the passengerCkeep her job Dget a promotionCOf the tens of thousands of ships on the ocean bottom, only a handful, less than one percent, contain negotiable treasure, such as gold and jewels. Most give us a different, priceless treasure - history. A sunken ship lies in trust, pre

36、served in the airless environment of the sea, and those in deep water are especially well protected. No dry land sites anywhere except perhaps Egyptian tombs - are in a better state of preservation than a vessel deep in the ocean. A sunken ship, therefore, can be a rare window through which a moment

37、 in time is glimpsed.This is not to imply that sunken ships are always found intact. Most ships break up on the way down, hit the bottom at about 100 miles per hour, and become a chaotic, confusing jumble (混乱的一堆). I recall the disappointment of a novice diver who , after surfacing from an underwater

38、 tour of a 400-foot ship, asked his diving companion, “Where was the wreck?” It takes experience to actually know sunken ship when one sees it.But no matter what its condition on the way down, a ship deteriorates（朽烂） much more slowly as it sinks deeper into protective layer of sand and mud. Ancient

39、vessels have been found in remarkably good condition. In 1997 a group of marine archaeologists excavating a 900-year-old wreck recovered engraved glassware, Greek coins, bronze kettles, and amazingly, Greek jars containing seeds, almonds, and peanutseven a plate with chicken bones.49Which of the fol

40、lowing is meant by the “priceless treasure” mentioned in line 2?AValuable information. BAncient coins. CPrecious stones. DOld books.50According to the passage, what usually happens to a ship as it sinks?AIt remains in an upright position. BIt gets transported by the currents.CIt breaks into pieces.

41、DIt attracts marine life.51Which objects found on the 900-year-old wreck most surprised the author?AMoney. BJars. CChicken bones. DGlassware.52Which features of an ancient ship is of most interest to the author?ASpeed. BContents. CLocation. DDesign.DSuppose you go into a fruit shop, wanting an apple

42、-you take up one, and on biting it you find it is sour; you look at it, and see that it is hard and green. You take up another one, and that, too, is hard, green, and sour. The shop man offers you a third; but ,before biting it, you examine it, and find that it is hard and green ,and you immediately

43、 say that you will not have it, as it must be sour, like those that you have already tried.Nothing can be more simple than that, you think; but if you will take the trouble to analyze and trace out into its logical elements what has been done by the mind, you will be greatly surprised.You find that,

44、 in two experiences, hardness and greenness in apples went together with sourness. It was so in the first case, and it was confirmed by the second. It is a very small basis, but still it is enough from which to make an induction(归纳). You found upon that a general law that all hard and green apples a

45、re sore; and that, so far as it goes, is a perfect induction. Well, having got your natural law in this way, when you are offered another apple, which you find it hard and green, you say, All hard and green apples are sour; this apple is hard and green; therefore, this apple is sour. And by further reasoning, you arrive at your final determination, “I wont have that apple.”Well now, suppose, having got your conclusion of the law, that at some times afterwards, yo
