25、e is measured by means of a thermometer(温 度 计).One general form ofthermometer depends upon the fact that most solids and liquids expand as their temperature rises.There are one or two exceptions.There is,for instance,a kind of steel called invar(from“invariable”)which does notchange its dimensions a
26、s temperature changes;it is valuable formaking pendulums(钟摆),since,if the length of a pendulum changes,its time of vibrationchanges.It is also used for making very accurate measuring scales.In both cases,then,changes ofatmospheric temperature have no effect if invar is used.Another exception is that
27、 very odd liquid,water,which has many strange properties(特性).As water gets colder it contracts(收 缩),which is ordinary behavior,until it reaches thetemperature of 30 .above freezing point.After that,as it gets colder,it expands.This isfortunate-for considering the freezing of a pond.As the water on t
28、op gets colder,it shrinks;andso,volume for volume,it becomes heavier and sinks.This goes on until all the pond is at 30,but after that,as the water becomes colder it expands.Therefore the colder water stays on top andfreezes,covering the pond with ice.If the water went on contracting down to the fre
29、ezing point,the pond would become a solid block of ice in the end.This would not worry people who live inhot climates,but it would be very serious for those who live in cold climates,especially for thosewho want to break the ice and catch fish which live in the cold water beneath.56.Invar is valuabl
30、e for making pendulums because _.A.it can hardly change its shape or size as temperature changes.B.it will change its dimensions without the change of temperature.C.its time of vibration doesnt change if its length changes.D.its time of vibration does change if its length changes.57.As water gets co
31、lder after reaching the temperature of 30.it will _.A.contractB.shrinkC.expandD.freeze58.Which of the following statements is true,according to this passage?A.Only invar can be used to make a thermometer.B.Only water can be used to make a thermometer.C.Both invar and water can be used to make a ther
32、mometer.D.Neither invar nor water can be used to make a thermometer.59.The best title of this passage is most likely to be_.A.Temperature MeasurementB.Two ExceptionsC.Uses of InvarD.Properties of WaterBI was walking along the main street of a small seaside town in the north of England lookingfor som
33、ewhere to make a phone call.My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted tocontact the AA.Low grey clouds were gathering across the sky and there was a cold damp windblowing off the sea which nearly threw me off my feet every time I crossed one of the side streets.It had rained in the night
34、and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the street.I wasglad that I was wearing a thick coat.There was no sign of a call box,nor was there anyone at that early hour whom I could ask.Ihad thought I might find a shop open selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his rounds,but the to
35、wn was completely dead.The only living thing I saw was a thin frightened cat outside asmall restaurant.Then suddenly I found what I was looking for.There was a small post office,and almosthidden from sight in a dark narrow street next to it was the towns only public call box,whichbadly needed a coat
36、 of paint.I hurried forward,but stopped in astonishment when I saw throughthe dirty glass that there was a man inside.He was fat,and was wearing a cheap blue plasticraincoat.I could not see his face and he did not even raise his head at the sound of my footsteps.Discreetly(谨慎地),I remained standing a
37、 few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait my turn.It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red tricklingfrom under the call box door.60.At what time was the story set?A.An early winter morning.B.Acold winter afternoon.C.An early summer morning.D.Awindy summer
38、 afternoon.61.Which of the following words best describe the writers impression of the town?A.Cold and frightening.B.Dirty and crowded.C.Empty and dead.D.Unusual and unpleasant.62.Why didnt the man raise his head when the writer came near?A.He was annoyed at being seen by the writer.B.He was angry a
39、t being disturbed by the writer.C.He was probably fast asleep.D.He was probably murdered.CLike fine food,good writing is something we approach with pleasure and enjoy from the firsttaste to the last.And good writers,like good cooks,do not suddenly appear full blown.Quite theopposite,just as the cook
40、 has to undergo a particular training,mastering the skills of his trade,thewriter must sit at his desk and devote long hours to achieving a style in his writing,whatever itspurpose-school work,matters of business,or purely social communication.You may be sure that the more painstaking the effort,the
41、 more effective the writing,and themore rewarding.There are still some faraway places in the world where you might find a public scribe（文书）to do your business or social writing for you,for money.There are a few managers who are luckyenough to have the service of that rare kind of secretary who can t
42、ake care of all sorts of letterwriting with no more than a quick note to work from.But for most of us,if there is any writing tobe done,we have to do it ourselves.We have to write school papers,business papers or home papers.We are constantly called onto put words to papers.It would be difficult to
43、count the number of such words,messages,letters,and reports put into mails or delivered by hand,but the daily figures must be extremely large.What is more,everyone who writes expects,or at least hopes whatever he writes will be read,from first word to last,not just thrown into some“letters-to-be-rea
44、d”files or into a wastepaperbasket.This is the reason we bend our efforts toward learning and practicing the skills ofinteresting,effective writing.63.In this passage,good writing is compared to fine food because.A.both are enjoyableB.both are hard to learnC.both are necessary to lifeD.both take a l
45、ong time to prepare64.According to the passage,which of the following statements is true?A.Writing skills are less important than experience.B.Agood writer should have his own way of writing.C.Agood writer should learn to write all kinds of articles.D.The more efforts one makes,the more money one ca
46、n earn.65.The author thinks that the most important reason for us to practice writing skills is.A.to earn our livingB.to attract others to readC.to do daily reports easilyD.to become good secretaries66.The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to.A.comment and blameB.introduce and describ
47、eC.explain and persuadeD.interest and informDI am a German by birth and descent.My name is Schmidt.But by education I am quite asmuch an Englishman as a Deutscher,and by affection much more the former.My life has beenspent pretty equally between the two countries,and I flatter myself I speak both la
48、nguages withoutany foreign accent.I count England my headquarters now:it is“home”to me.But a few years ago I was residentin Germany,only going over to London now and then on business.I will not mention the townwhere I lived.It is unnecessary to do so,and in the peculiar experience I am about to rela

50、 and reliable,so that I had already attained afair position in the house,and was looked upon as a“rising man”.But I was still young,and notquite so wise as I thought myself.I came close once to making a great mess of a certain affair.It isthis story which I am going to tell.Our house went in largely
