Visitors to Britain often see British people waiting in queues(队) in public places. It is considered impolite to 26 on a bus without waiting your turn in the queues. And if you don’t wait our turn, the other people in the queue will probably complain 27 .

The Great Barrier Reef ranks among the most famous natural wonders of the world. However, it is not the only natural wonder of Australia. Another popular natural site is located in the desert in the heart of Australia. This natural wonder is the huge rock formation(岩层) called Uluru, or Ayers Rock.
The two names for this rock formation come from the two languages of Australia. Uluru is an Aboriginal(土著的) word with no real meaning. It is just the name of the rock. The English name, Ayers Rock, was given to this natural wonder in the 1800s by an Englishman names William Gosse. Gosse named it after the Chief Secretary of South Australia at that time, Sir Henry Ayers. Today, both names are used for the site.
Looking at Uluru from a distance, viewers are first astonished to see this huge, lonely rock in the flat(平坦的) ground. Visitors who happen to be there early in the morning or late at night can also witness(目击) the changing colors of Uluru. The rising and setting sun changes the color of the formation, red, blue, pink, brown and gray at different times. What people cannot see, however, is that two-thirds of the formation is under the ground. What visitors to Uluru see is only one-third of the whole rock.
In case you are wondering how big Uluru really is, the top of the formation is 348 meters above the desert. It usually takes about two hours to hike to the top. There is also a 10-kilometer trail that visitors can follow to walk all the way around Uluru.

To describe how beautiful the Uluru is.
To explain how the rock formation was named.
To tell the difference between Aboriginal words and English.
( )42. What can we infer from the passage

The name of Ayers Rock was given by accident.

Keep it down! You have to notice the volume of your music. You should not play your music so loud that everyone around you can hear it. Some people might even get angry.

You can also do this when you order food at a fast-food restaurant or when you answer the telephone and it’s not for you.
It’s Your Choice! There are times when you need to decide what is best. For example, some people can listen to music on their MP3 players when reading books, while others think it is disturbing. In cases like this, you need to do what seems right for you.

It was one a.m. when I finally succeeded in creating life. As I looked at the lifeless human being, I saw one eye slowly open. Then he began to breathe and move his arms. At first, I thought he would be a fine-looking man. He had yellow skin, black hair and very white teeth. Unluckily, his eyes were watery, and his lips(嘴唇) were thin and colorless. I soon realized that there was nothing beautiful about him. I ran out of the room, disgusted(恶心) by the creature(生物) I had created.
I tried to sleep, but for hours I couldn’t. Then, when I did get to sleep, I had bad dreams. When I awoke the next morning, I didn’t want to return to my laboratory and the monster I had created. I went for a long walk until I came to an inn. There, to my pleasure and surprise, I found my friend, Henry Clerval. “Tell me about my family,” I asked him. “And Elizabeth, how is she ”
“They are all well, Frankenstein,” he said. “But you don’t look well, my friend. Your eyes look as if you haven’t slept for many weeks.”
I knew this was true. “I’ve been so busy,” I explained, “that I’ve been working without rest.”
Henry walked back with me to my department. I didn’t want him to, but I couldn’t stop him. I was afraid that the creature I had left there might be alive and walking about. When we reached my apartment, I asked Henry to wait outside for a few minutes. I did not explain why. I slowly opened the door and entered the room. To my surprise, it was empty. The creature had gone. I was so overcome(压倒) by the feeling that I fainted. I was ill for many months.
During my illness, Henry was my only nurse. He heard me talking in my sleep about a monster. At first, he thought I was just having a bad dream, but then he realized that something very bad happened in my life. At last, I began to get better.

He was too tired to sleep. B. He missed his family very much.
C. The ugly creature frightened him.

At the start of the 20th century, a new industry was just being born: the movies.
America’s movie industry began life in New York. 51 Worse than that, it was difficult to make movies in winter, because it was too cold. So by 1910, movie-makers were moving to Los Angeles.
The Los Angeles was full of advantages. In California, they could make films all through the year; and everything was cheaper. 52
The movie-maker found what they needed a few miles outside Los Angeles. Soon large new studios were being built in an area called Hollywood.
Movies quickly became very popular. 53 For this reason, Hollywood was rapidly controlled by a small number of big companies such as MGM, 20th Century Fox and Warner Brothers.
54 Some old names have disappeared, but some new ones have appeared, like the Walt Disney Company and Steven Spielberg’s company Amblin. Gradually, it’s only huge companies like Fox that can afford to make today’s very expensive films, like Titanic.
55 It has also become the headquarters(总部) of a global dream-machine. Perhaps we dreamed differently in the past. Today, thanks to Hollywood, people everywhere have similar dreams.
We now live in the age of global culture.
What’s more, there were lots of land for sale.
Since then, the big companies have had their ups and downs.
People around the world all want to watch films in Hollywood.
But everything was too expensive, like workers, land and taxes.
But movies were expensive to make, so film companies needed lots of money.
Once Hollywood could make films just for America, today it makes them for the world.

Computers are becoming more and more important in our daily life. Do you know the history and the changes of computers
The computer was invented in 1946. At that time, the machine was huge and it was as large as a big house.
The computer is a very useful tool in our life, our study as well as our work. For example, computers can send messages to foreign friends by e-mail. The computer can open our eyes to let us know more. The computer is the most helpful invention in the world. There are many computer puters can help us get information at home and abroad. We can listen to music or play games by computer, too. It makes us relaxed.
It's hard to imagine what our life would be like if we had no computers in our daily life. And in my opinion, computers are going to change our life completely in the near future.
