5、The streets are d_____ with all kinds of flowers to welcome the coming of the Spring Festival.

4、He is a stranger here. So he is not f_____ with the culture here.

3、Tony Bennett, the American singer recently touring Britain, can’t remember how many times he has sung his standard hit “I Left My Heart in San Francisco”. He sang it again to his audience at the London Palladium last night.

“I never get tired of singing it,” he said, “I like it too much. It’s a great city and it’s a good song.”

Bennett is to record a TV special with American singer Lena Home while he is here. And a new LP recorded by him in London for Philips titled “Listen Easy” will be published in June. “I like it here,” he added quietly over whiskey. “I would like to live here so many months of the year.”

He already keeps a large flat in Grosvenor Square, where he is staying with his actress wife Sandie Grant and their three-year-old daughter Joanna. It has a studio where he likes to paint. Tony plans to have his first exhibition later in the year and he has already sold one picture for $4000. At the end of the year Tony is to star in a musical film, which has been specially written for him called “Two Bits”, an informal expression for 50 cents. It’s about an Italian immigrant（移民）who goes to America, but he becomes a failure.

“In many ways it’s very close to my life the way the story has been written,” said Bennett. “My father, an Italian, was ill and died when I was nine. He always wanted me to sing, but he never lived long enough to be a part of my success.”

The film is to be made by Italy’s top director Vittoria De Sica.

2、Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a lot of simple jobs that are now being done by human beings. They point out that at a circus（馬戲團(tuán)）, for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing a lot of things. If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal something to eat as a reward. The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do quite a few simple jobs if they know they would get a reward for doing them.

Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house as soldiers in both old and modern times. Geese have been used to give warning by making a lot of noise when an enemy comes near. But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories. In Russia, for example, pigeons, which are birds with good eyesight, are being used to watch out fault（毛�。﹊n small steel balls. When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a switch. This turns on a light to warn the workers in the factory. At the same time, a few seeds are given to the pigeon as a reward. It takes three or five weeks to train a pigeon to do this and one pigeon can inspect three thousand balls an hour.

Apes（猿）have been used in America in helping to make cars and scientists believe that these large monkeys may one day gather crops and even drive tractors on the farm.

A. Taught                  B. Made                   C. Rewarded              D. Forced

45. The trainer gives the animal something to eat_____.

A. when the animal wants to eat something  B. to make the animal to do something

C. before the animal does something           D. after the animal does something

A. that elephants and monkeys are the cleverest animals

B. pigeon and geese are cleverer than any other animals

C. dogs are the cleverest animals in the world

D. nothing about the question: what animals are the cleverest?

47. The pigeon touched the switch when_____.

A. the light goes on                                B. it finds a fault

C. it sees the seeds                                D. it hears a noise

When Mr. Smith was walking one evening, he met four of his old friends. To be polite, he invited them to come home with him to _21_. He hoped that they would say no, but _22_, they quickly agreed and _23_ home with him.

Mr. Smith was a _24_ man. There was never _25_ in his house. He knew that there _26_ very little for supper that night, _27_ he did not know how to break away from his guests without being impolite, so he let them come with him to _28_ house. But when they came _29_ his front door, he suddenly rushed forward, opened the door, went in, closed in again and then locked it. He found _30_ in the kitchen and quickly told her _31_ had happened.

Mr. Smith’s guests were at first _32_. Then they thought he had perhaps gone ahead to get ready for the _33_. When nothing had yet happened for a few minutes, they began to _34_ and to knock heavily at the door. After this had gone for some time, Mr. Smith sent his wife to a window to talk to _35_. She told them that Mr. Smith _36_.

“What do you mean, woman?” shouted one of the men. “We came here a few minutes ago _37_ and we saw him go into the house.”

Mr. Smith was now afraid that the noise _38_ his friends were making would bring his neighbours around and that he would be _39_, so he put his head out of the window and said to his friends, “This house has a _40_ door, too. Perhaps Mr. Smith came in through the front door and went out through the other.”
