第二节 完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)

A successful scientist is generally a good observer. He makes full 31 of the facts he observes. He doesn’t accept ideas which are not 32 on obvious facts, and therefore refuses to accept authority as the only 33 for truth. He always 34 ideas carefully and makes experiments to prove them.

The rise of 35 science may perhaps be considered to 36 as far back as the 37 of Roger Bacon, the wonderful philosopher of Oxford, who live 38 the years 1214 and 1292. He was probably the first in the Middle 39 to suggest that we must learn science 40 observing and experimenting on the things around us, and he himself 41 many important discoveries.

Galileo, however, who lived more than 300 years later (1564-1642), was the greatest of several great men, 42 in Italy, France, Germany, or England, began by 43 to show how many important 4 could be discovered by observation. Before Galileo, learned men believed that large bodies fell more 45 towards the earth than small ones, 46 Aristotle said so. But Galileo, going to the 47 of the leaning Tower of Pisa, let fall two 48 stones and proved Aristotle was wrong. It was Galileo’s 49 of going direct to Nature, and proving our 50 and theories by experiment, that has led to all the discoveries of modern science.

第三部分 阅读理解 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)????阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

Societies all over the world name places in similar ways. Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Frequently it happens that a place has two names: One is named by the people and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits died hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.Many roads and places in Singapore（新加坡）are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countries ---- in both the West and the East.Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in former British bases. If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circus ---- obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel.Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interesting example, “Base Basah” means “wet rice” in Malay（马来语）. Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”? The reason is simple. During the pioneering days, wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.A few roads in Singapore are named by their shapes. There is “Circular Road” for one. Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes, like “Paya Lebar Crescent”. This road is called a crescent（月牙） because it begins on the main road, makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.51. We learn from Paragraph 1 that _____.A. the government is usually the first to name a placeB. many places tend to have more than one nameC. a ceremony will be held when a place is namedD. people prefer the place names given by the government52. What does the underlined phrase “die hard” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Change suddenly. B. Change significantly.C. Disappear mysteriously. D. Disappear very slowly.53. Which of the following places is named after a person?A. Raffles Place. B. Selector Airbase.C. Piccadilly Circus. D. Paya Lebar Crescent.54. Bras Basah Road is named _______.A. after a person B. after a place C. after an activity D. by its shape55. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Some place names in Singapore are the same as in Britain.B. Some places in Singapore are named for military purposes.

C. The way Singaporeans name their places is unique.

D. Young Singaporeans have forgotten the pioneers.

When Josephine Cooper was growing up, she learned the importance of charity from her parents. Although they made a modest living for their family of 10, they insisted on sharing with those less fortunate.
