I was selected as a judge for it. I read the 24 :“Show how it is possible to determine the 25 of a tall building 26 the aid of a barometer (气压计).”The 27 answered:“ 28 the barometer to the top of the building, fix a long rope to it, 29 the 30 to the street, and then bring it up, measuring the length of the rope. The length of the rope is the height of the building.”
I pointed 31 that the student really had a strong reason for a full score, since he 32 the question completely and correctly. On the other hand, 33 a full score were given, 34 could well contribute to a high grade for the student in his 35 course. A high 36 is supposed to certify competence in physics, but the answer did not confirm (证实，确定) this. I suggested that the student have another try at answering the question. I was not surprised that the teacher agreed, but I was surprised that the student did.
I gave the student six 37 to answer the question, with the warning that his answer should show some knowledge of physics. 38 the end of five minutes, he had not written 39 . I asked if he wished to 40 , but he said no. In the next minute, he dashed off his answer, which was proper and made the teacher give up his thought, and I gave the student almost a full score.

A
People celebrate birthdays in almost every country on Earth. And they celebrate them in many different ways.
In China and Japan, for example, the arrival of the New Year is more important then a person's birthday. So, everyone adds a year to their ages on New Year' Day, instead of on their birthdays.
In Brazil the special birthday food isn't cake, but special candies. In China, it's long noodles-for long life. In Iceland, pancakes with candies rolled inside them are served on birthdays.
In Great Britain, a birthday is all-day celebration. At school, the birthday kid is lifted up and "bumped" by his classmates. This means the person is lifted by the ankles and arms and bumped on the ground, once for each year and once for growth. In Israel, the same custom is followed, except the birthday person is raised and lowered while sitting in a chair.
In Holland, children not only get gifts, but they give things out, too. It's customary to give cakes, cookies, and candies to your classmates and teacher on your birthday.
In Mexico, it's good luck to give birthday greetings as early in the day as possible. So it's not unusual to be awakened at midnight by friends singing birthday sons.
In India, birthday celebrations also begin before dawn. The birthday is also a religious event, so prayers and blessings must be said before dawn. And the birthday person gets to stay home from school that day.
In Thailand, two tall candles are lighted the night before a birthday. One is as tall as the birthday person. It stands for how long the birthday person will live. If it goes out early, it's bad luck. Another Thai custom involves buying live fish and birds. The birthday person frees the animals, which brings luck.
In Nigeria, people don't celebrate individual birthdays. Instead, everyone in a certain age group celebrates together on a certain day.
In may countries, birthday customs are changing. Old customs are giving way to Western style birthdays, complete with candle-topped cakes. But one thing never changes-Birthdays are special days for everyone!

In recent years, in the big cities of the country, there have arisen traffic problems, for cars, trucks, buses and bicycles have increased in number, size and speed. To make matter worse, the population is ever on the increase. As a result the streets are now more crowded than before, Therefore driving in streets today is not so safe as it used to be.
However, all efforts are made to reduce road accidents. Wherever possible, old roads and streets are given new surfaces and narrow roads are made wider. Building or trees that stand in the way of traffic are removed and remarkable road－signs are placed at the proper places.
It is important to see that people on foot are safe on the streets. There is no problem for them to cross the road at the crossing where are traffic lights. Crossing a busy road is difficult and dangerous as cars and trucks move on the streets almost without stopping.
Overhead bridges are built up above these busy roads in increasing numbers. People on foot may now use them to cross the roads while cars and trucks keep going on. The shortcoming is that people who are in poor health may feel it difficult to climb up and down the steps at each end of the overhead bridges.
45. It is difficult and dangerous to cross a busy road because .
A. the road is too smooth
B. the road surface is too wide

B. use overhead bridges to cross the roads safely
C. feel it difficult to climb up and down the overhead bridges
D. feel it easy to have a good view of the city

C
Scientists in India have invented a new way of producing electricity. Their invention does not get its power from oil, coal or other fuels(燃料). It produces electricity with the power of animals. India has about 80, 000, 000 bullocks(小公牛) which can do all kinds of jobs: working in the fields, pulling carriages through the streets and carrying water for villagers. Indian government has been looking for ways to use less imported(进口的) oil to provide energy. The scientists believe those millions of bullocks can help. One job done by bullocks is to pump water out of wells. The animals do this by walking around and around in a circle. As they walk, they turn a heavy stick that makes the pump move. This simple technology is centuries old, but the scientists thought it could be used to produce electricity. Bullocks walk in a circle only 2 or 3 times a minute. That is much too slow to produce electricity, but it can produce enough power to turn a set of gears(一组齿轮). A large gear sets next to a smaller one. As the large gear turns, it causes the smaller one to turn. That gear turns an even smaller one. Each gear moves faster because it is a little smaller. The smallest gear may turn very fast. Clocks operate with gears, so do cars and so does the device(装置) invented by the scientists to produce electricity.
49. From this passage we know that in the past India produced electricity mainly with .
A. local coal B. foreign oil
C. other fuels D. the power of animals
50. Bullocks produce electricity in the same way as .
A. they work in the fields or on the farms
B. they pull carriages through the streets
C. they carry water for Indian villagers
D. they pump water out of wells for farmers
51. Why do the smaller gears move faster than the bigger ones?
A. Because the bigger gears want to synchronize (同步) with the smaller ones, and they have to move more slowly than the smaller ones.
B. Because the smaller gears have to synchronize with the bigger ones.
C. Because the bigger gears are too big in size to move faster than the smaller ones.
D. Because the smaller gears needn't synchronize with the bigger ones.
52. How do bullocks produce electricity according to the passage?
A. Bullocks walk around and around slowly in a circle.
B. Bullocks run around and around rapidly in a circle.
C. Larger gears make smaller ones turn fast enough.
D. The largest gears have the smallest ones move very fast.
