Passage 1
I don’t often lose things and I’m especially careful with money, so I was quite
surprised when I reached for my wallet and found it wasn’t there. At first, I
thought I might have left it at home. Then I remembered taking it out to pay for
the taxi, so I knew I had it with me just before I walked into the restaurant. I
wondered if it had slipped (滑) out of my pocket while I was eating dinner.
Thinking about that possibility, I turned and walked back to the table where I
had been sitting. Unfortunately, there were several people sitting at the table
at the time, so I called a waiter and explained to him that my wallet had fallen
out of my pocket while I was sitting at the table a few minutes earlier. I had
the waiter go over to the table to see if my wallet was on the floor. While the
waiter was looking for it, the manager of the restaurant came up to me and asked
me if anything was wrong. I didn’t want to get a lot of people involved in it,
but I knew I had to get the wallet back. I told the manger what had happened. He
asked me to describe the wallet to him, and then he insisted that I report the
missing wallet to the police. I told him that I didn’t particularly want to get
the police involved in it; besides, I was in a hurry as I had an appointment
with my doctor in just a few minutes. I explained to him that my biggest worry
at the moment was how I was going to pay the bill. He told me not to worry about
that. He had me write down my name and address, and he said he would send me a
bill.

Passage 2
Crime has its own cycles (周期), a magazine reported some years ago. Police
records that were studied for five years from over 2,400 cities and towns show a
surprising link between changes in the season and crime patterns.
The pattern of crime has varied very little over a long period of years. Murder
reaches its high during July and August, as do rape and other violent attacks.
Murder, moreover, is more than seasonal: it is a weekend crime. It is also a
nighttime crime: 62 percent of murders are committed between 6 pm and 6 am.
Unlike the summer high in crimes of bodily harm, burglary has a different cycle.
You are most likely to be robbed between 6 pm and 2 am on a Saturday night in
December, January or February. Which is the most uncriminal month of all?
May—though more dog bites are reported in this month than any other month of the
year.
Possibly, high temperature and humidity (湿度) bring on our strange and terrifying
summer actions, but police officials are not sure. “There is, of course, no
proof of a connection between humidity and murder,” they say. “Why murder’s high
time should come in the summertime we really don’t know.”
36.A connection has been found（ ）.
A. between crime patterns in 2,400 cities and towns
B. between a magazine report and police records
C. between the season and the studies for five years
D. between seasons and crime patterns
37.Crimes of bodily harm reach their high in（ ）.
A. February B. May
C. July D. December
38.Burglary is less likely to occur（ ）.
A. in winter B. in summer
C. at night D. on weekends
39.What is the strange thing in May?（ ）
A. There are more robberies in May.
B. Most criminals are caught in May.
C. There are more dog bites in May.
D. Most criminals are released in May.
40.One conclusion you can draw from the last paragraph is that（ ）.
A. there may be a link between murder and hot weather
B. there is definitely a link between murder and hot weather
C. there is no link between murder and hot weather
D. there cannot be any connection between humidity and murder

The police had moved quickly to block off the area. Now Jim stood across the

fought to gain control of the fire. But it 62 hopeless. Heavy smoke rose 63
every opening. Already flames were licking out of the ground-level 64
second-story windows of the old school building. Suddenly, the east end of the
building exploded 65 flames. The noise was so loud that 66 Jim, who had serious
hearing problem, could hear a faint roar.
Across the street 67 the school grounds Mr. MacIntire, the principal, was
shouting to the fire chief. Jim read his lips, missing 68 of what he said
