The fire 13 in the home of a baker named Thomas Farynor (Farriner), located on London’s Pudding Lane. Thomas wasn’t an 14 baker. Actually, he was King Charles II’s baker. The fire brought complete damage to the city of London. In 17th century London, not only were buildings made from wood and straw, but they stood very close together, making it easy for fire to 15 . Warehouses (仓库) around Pudding Lane contained materials such as oil and rope which soon caught fire! Within just a few hours, London Bridge by the River Thames was burning. For the next four days, almost the whole city was on fire. Instead of fighting the fire, people’s first reaction was to get away as quickly as possible. In a state of great 16 , they collected all the belongings they could carry and ran. Back then, there was no fire station in London. Local soldiers as well as local people did the best they could with the 17 equipment they had. It wasn’t until Tuesday, 4th September that the fire was brought under control. And by Thursday the fire was finally put out. Most of what we know about the Great Fire of London came from the 18 of two men called Samuel Pepys and John Evelyn, who both left detailed descriptions of this famous tragedy (悲剧). A third of the city had been destroyed! About 13,200 houses and 87 churches were burned to the ground. 19 , only six official deaths were recorded, but the actual figure is likely to be much higher. With 70,000 people left homeless, theft and other crimes swept what was left of the city, as well as sickness and disease. There is no doubt that the Great Fire was an awful tragedy–but it did lead to some nice changes to London. The city was rebuilt in a safer and more organized way, 20 such a disaster would not happen again. Streets were made wider, and buildings were made from brick or stone (rather than wood), with better access to water. What’s more, London’s first fire brigades were formed! 13.

D Protect Children from Cyber-bullying When you think about bullying, you might think of a child being bullied by another in the schoolyard. As more young people have access to computers and cell phones, traditional bullying has gone digital, which has not yet gained awareness in Chinese parents. Cyber-bullying, first invented by Canadian educator Bill Belsey, is the use of the Internet and related technologies to harm other people, in an intentional, repeated, and unfriendly manner. It involves threatening text messages, the spread of online rumors on social networking sites, and intentionally keeping someone out of an online group. Cyber-bullying is at an all-time high in the US. According to a study from the US Department of Justice, more than 43% of teenagers report being victims(受害者)of cyber-bullying. Compared to face-to-face bullying, cyber-bullying is considered to have a worse emotional effect on the victims, and kids could feel more desperate and depressed. Severe, long-term or frequent cyber-bullying can leave victims at greater risk for anxiety, depression, and other disorders. Research says that cyber-bullying victims were almost twice as likely to have attempted suicide compared to youths who had not experienced it. In traditional schoolyard bullying, at least home is a safe place for the victims. But cyber-bullying is endless-it could happen anytime. Moreover, in the digital world, bullying is much easier, as a bully can pick on people with a much lower risk of being caught. Actually, cyber-bullying has become a worldwide issue. In the US, as several teens committed suicide because of cyber-bullying, some schools set rules to punish cyberbullies. Laws to punish cyber-bullying have been introduced in some states. In China, cyber-bullying is still considered by many parents and educators as a problem that involves physical contact. However, as cell phones and laptops are becoming common equipment for teenagers, social interactions have increasingly moved from personal contact to virtual contact. Cyber-bullying is spreading faster than expected. For schools and parents, safety rules should be set in the virtual world for kids, such as telling them not to let out anything to a stranger. Active steps should be taken to make the public aware of the seriousness of this problem, because it would be too late to take measures after tragedy strikes. 31. According to the writer, which of the following is cyber-bullying? A. Saying unkind words to classmates. B. Attacking one’s computer with virus. C. Stopping someone from joining a club. D. Threatening someone in text messages. 32. Compared to traditional bullying, cyber-bullying _. A. can be found out easily B. hasn’t been punished by law C. can cause more lasting sufferings D. has made twice more youths killed 33. According to the passage, _. A. cyber-bullying first started in Canada B. measures should be taken against cyber-bullying C. there is no escape from cyber-bullying for students D. Chinese students are not facing serious cyber-bullying 第二部分 本部分共5题,共20分。 四、阅读表达。(共10分,34—36每小题2分,37题4分) Twitter(微博) is a free social online service that allows you to send messages to hundreds of your friends all at the same time.
