阅读下面短文, 从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。

A

The reviews below are about the film The Silver Glove.

Angela Moore

I just love this fast-moving pirate（海盗）film. The story moves at a high speed from one frightening（令人惊悚的）fight scene（场景）to the next. You really feel as if you are on the ships with these pirates. The main pirate is given all the best and most humorous lines. The film has laughs as well as frightening moments.

Max Court

I enjoyed this film very much. The film is directed with great skill and invention by German Dieter Muller. There are a lot of surprises in the story to keep us guessing until the last minute. Some clever jokes give the film a surprising level of humor too, which I really didn't expect from a film about pirates.

Deborah McGhee

The Silver Glove promises much but shows very little. The opening scene, filmed in a storm of lightning and high waves, is an exciting start. But as the film takes you from one fight to another, it starts to seem boring. Actress Patricia Groves plays the doctor wonderfully. Maria Thomson

After all the money that has been spent on this pirate film, you would expect more than this boring movie. The fight scenes are so repetitive（重复的）that you may think you've seen the film before. Most of the camera work is inventive, though. The ship chase creates a lot of excitement while the rest of the film fails to do.

43. What common idea do Angela Moore and Max Court share?

A. The film is humorous.    B. The film is frightening.

C. The film encourages them.   D. The film keeps them guessing.

44. Who thinks highly of the actress playing the doctor in the film?

A. Max Court.      B. Angela Moore.

C. Maria Thomson.    D. Deborah McGhee.

45. Maria Thomson is unhappy with the film's ______________.

A. ship chases   B. fight scenes   C. camera work  D. opening scene

B

Goldfish have long been a popular family pet. However, there is a growing problem associated with these lovely fish.

Many people are buying goldfish home, while many people are setting goldfish free. One survey of people in Texas found that nearly 60% fish owners put their fish into lakes.

Goldfish can grow very large. As a result, the number grows quite quickly, and there is not enough food for the rest of the fish in the lake. Such is the case in West Medical Lake.

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife says that it can cost up to $150, 000 to take away the foreign species（物种）from the lake. It's such a serious problem that they are considering making setting goldfish free into the wild a crime （犯罪）and prosecuting （起诉）those responsible（有责任的）.

"If they get caught doing that and get prosecuted, they could have to pay for solving the problem they created, "said Randy Osborne, a fish biologist from the department.

So what should you do if you no longer want your pet fish? Well, if you can't find a willing friend or family member to help care for them, call your local pet shop or animal shelter. You might also join a goldfish club in your town or on Face book, and then get in touch with people who can take care of your pet.

And, if your fish are ill, do not put these sick fish into the wild or throw them into your toilet. "A sick fish can introduce harmful things like the disease into water, " wrote Pet Helpful, a website sharing knowledge on pets. "Keeping our waterways clean and safe is important for future generations（代）. "

46. The underlined words "associated within Paragraph 1 have the same meaning with ________.

A. suitable for   B. filled with   C. harmful to   D. connected with

47. What was one result of putting goldfish into West Medical Lake?

A. They caused the lake to get dirtier.

B. There were fewer other fish in the lake.

C. They introduced other species to the lake.

D. Much money was wasted on protecting them.

48. What action may the government take to stop people freeing goldfish into the wild?

A. Punishing those who do it.

B. Raising money to save freed goldfish.

C. Beating people who do it.

D. Advising people to buy fewer goldfish.

49. What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?

A. The types of unwanted pet fish.

B. Where unwanted pet fish have gone.

C. How to deal with unwanted pet fish.

D. The importance of saving unwanted pet fish.

50. What's the best title of the passage?

A. Water pollution  B. Wildlife problem  C. Unwanted pet fish  D. Goldfish's number

C

Mr. Micawber reappeared. I washed my hands and face, to do the greater honor（尊敬）to his gentility, and we walked to our house, which I think I must now call it. Mr. Micawber impressed the name of streets, and the shapes of corner houses on me, as we went along, so that I might find my way back easily in the morning.

There were two other children: Master Micawber, aged about four, and Miss Micawber, aged about three. And a dark young woman who was servant（仆人）to the family told me that her room was at the top of the house, a dark and small room with shabby furniture.

Mrs. Micawber came up to show me the flat and sat down to take a breath. "Before I married, when I lived with papa and mama, I should never find it necessary to rent（租）my house. But Mr Micawber is in difficulties, so all personal feelings must give way. "

I said: "Yes, ma'am"

"Mr. Micawber's difficulties are almost overwhelming at present, "said Mrs. Micawber; "and whether it is possible to bring him through them, I don't know. When I lived at home with papa and mama, I really hardly understood what the word meant, but experience could tell — as papa used to Say. "

"If Mr. Micawber's creditors（债主）will not give him time, "said Mrs. Micawber, "they must take the consequences（后果）and the sooner they solve it, the better. Blood cannot be got from a stone. Mr. Micawber can't pay off（偿还） the money at present, not to mention law cost. "

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填在空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余选项

No one likes feeling embarrassed（尴尬）. 56________ If you're worried about embarrassing situations and you have trouble dealing with embarrassment, take a look at the following tips to make things better.

●Understand that embarrassments are in the past.

When learning to deal with embarrassment, the first big thing is to realize that embarrassing moments are in the past. These things have already happened and you can change nothing. It is hard to get through those moments, but you're here now and everything is okay.

● Talk to someone about how you feel.

If you're fighting against embarrassment, talk to people that you trust. 57________ You'll find these people will look at things from right angle（角度）and you'll feel much better.

●58___________

It may be hard to get over embarrassment. However, common embarrassing moments may become things that you can just shrug off（耸耸肩）and laugh at finally. When you think about things from the right angle, you may laugh at yourself for making a silly mistake.

● Get out there and try again.

The fear of embarrassment should not prevent you from getting out there to try again. If you want to get through past embarrassment, don't let it stop you from living your life. This could mean doing the same thing that embarrassed you in the past. You may be worried about experiencing embarrassing moments from the past, but it doesn't have to be this way. 59____________
