A laser is used to produce very powerful beams (光柱) of light. These beams of light are so powerful that they make holes in a steel very quickly. Today laser is getting wider and wider used in more and more fields.
Why is laser so much more powerful than other kinds of light? What makes laser beams so different from other beams?
Laser is a kind of light and also a form of energy. A laser beam is made up of very short waves. These waves all have the same wave length. The laser beam keeps going on and off all the time, and is off much longer than it is on. As these changes are very fast, we cannot see them. During the time laser beam is off, the energy for the next burst of light is being built up, so when the beam is on again, it will be a strong burst. And the laser beam doesn’t spread, that is, it doesn’t get wider as other light beams do. This is why the laser beam can keep all its energy and is so much more powerful than other light beams.
36. The article is about ________.

D. We have a few chances of seeing the changes of the laser beams.

Jacks is the name of a game that is quite popular with children. To play jacks, you will need a small rubber ball and ten small metal objects called jacks.
The rules for this game are not complicated. To begin with, you put the ten jacks on the floor or ground in front of you. Toss the ball up (but not too high), pick up one jack, and then catch the ball. Keep the jack in your hand and then continue to pick up the other jacks, one at a time. You lose your turn if you do not catch the ball, you do not pick up a jack, or you drop any jacks from your hand.
When you finish all ten jacks, you now try to do the same thing again but with two jacks at one time. This is more difficult, of course. You lose your turn if you make any of the other three mistakes or if you do not pick up exactly two jacks each time.
41. The underlined word in the second paragraph means “________”.
A. leave something fall B. throw
C. catch D. kick
42. A player picked up all ten jacks, one at a time. Then he followed the rules and finished the second part. The total number of times that he picked up jacks was ________.

A laser is used to produce very powerful beams (光柱) of light. These beams of light are so powerful that they make holes in a steel very quickly. Today laser is getting wider and wider used in more and more fields.
Why is laser so much more powerful than other kinds of light? What makes laser beams so different from other beams?
Laser is a kind of light and also a form of energy. A laser beam is made up of very short waves. These waves all have the same wave length. The laser beam keeps going on and off all the time, and is off much longer than it is on. As these changes are very fast, we cannot see them. During the time laser beam is off, the energy for the next burst of light is being built up, so when the beam is on again, it will be a strong burst. And the laser beam doesn’t spread, that is, it doesn’t get wider as other light beams do. This is why the laser beam can keep all its energy and is so much more powerful than other light beams.

A. light B. short waves C. laser D. light beams

Toss the ball up (but not too high), pick up one jack, and then catch the ball. Keep the jack in your hand and then continue to pick up the other jacks, one at a time. You lose your turn if you do not catch the ball, you do not pick up a jack, or you drop any jacks from your hand.

51. Hardly [A]he had met [B]his students [C]when he became [D]aware of the fact. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】A;had he
【解析】
【详解】考查倒装句。句意:他一见到他的学生,就意识到了这个事实。“hardly ... when ...”结构中,hardly位于句首时,主句要用部分倒装,即把助动词、情态动词或be动词提到主语之前,原句中A部分“he had met”未倒装,应改为“had he met” 。故答案为:A;had he。
52. The [A]shipment of dangerous chemicals [B]by rail [C]have aroused the [D]people’s concern. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】C;has
【解析】
【详解】考查主谓一致。句意:通过铁路运输危险化学品这一行为引起了人们的担忧。“The shipment of ...(……的运输/装运 )”中,中心词是“shipment”,为单数名词,作主语时,谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式,原句中C部分“have”是复数形式的谓语,应改为“has”。故答案为:C;has。
53. As time [A]went on, he suffered [B]such a loss that he [C]was forced [D]giving up his business. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】D;to give
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:随着时间的推移,他遭受了如此大的损失,以至于被迫放弃了他的生意。根据“be forced to do sth.”是固定搭配,意为“被迫做某事”,原句中giving错误,应改为“to give”。故答案为:D;to give。
54. We [A]had lived here [B]for three years [C]while my father had us move [D]to a new house. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】C. before
【解析】
【详解】考查连词。句意:在我父亲让我们搬到新房子之前,我们已经在这里住了三年了。“while”引导时间状语从句时,强调主从句动作同时发生,而此处“住在这里三年”是在“搬到新房子”之前,应用“before”引导时间状语从句,所以C项“while”使用错误。故答案为:C;before。
55. [A]No other skill is more [B]important for a student [C]to master [D]as reading. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】D;than
【解析】
【详解】考查介词。句意:对于学生而言,没有哪项技能比阅读更重要需要去掌握。此处表示“比阅读”,用介词than,因此D项as应改为than。故答案为:D;than。
56. Tom [A]must be [B]on his way, [C]and he’ll [D]be late for his next appointment. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】C;or
【解析】
【详解】考查并列连词。句意:汤姆一定还在路上,否则他下一个约会就要迟到了。根据语境,前一分句“Tom must be on his way”为假设条件,后一分句“he’ll be late for his next appointment”负面后果,用并列连词“or (否则,要不然)”符合逻辑。因此C项and应改为or。故答案为:C;or。
57. [A]A lot of students spend their time [B]read English [C]magazines [D]in their spare time. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】B;reading
【解析】
【详解】考查动名词。句意:许多学生在闲暇时间会花时间阅读英语杂志。spend some time (in) doing sth.意为“花费时间做某事”,这是个固定用法,介词in后,用动名词作宾语,因此B项read应改为reading。故答案为:B;reading。
58. The [A]first thing Tom [B]does every morning [C]is to have a [D]coldly shower. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】D;cold
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意:汤姆每天早上做的第一件事就是冲个冷水澡。shower是名词,需用形容词修饰,表示“冷水澡”。coldly是副词,不能修饰名词,因此D项应改为cold。故答案为D;cold。
59. The teacher [A]wants Jack to be [B]a little confident though it [C]may be sound [D]hard. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】C; may
【解析】
【详解】考查情态动词的用法。句意:老师希望杰克有一点自信,尽管可能听起来很难。在英语中,“may”作为情态动词,意为“可能”,其后常接动词原形,而原句中may后接动词原形be,又继续接动词原形sound,语法上错误。根据句意,应去掉后面的动词原形be。故答案为:C;may。
60. Nobody [A]knows the man [B]which is sitting [C]on the sofa [D]over there. (指出错误并改正)
【答案】B;who
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:没有人认识坐在沙发上的那个人。先行词“the man”是人,在定语从句中作主语,所以使用关系代词who引导,因此B项which变为who。故答案为:B;who。
