    8．Helen has______ 16-year-old son named Jerry who has ____ gift for singing and hosting in parties．（　　）
    A．a； theB．a； aC．the； aD．the； the

    分析 Helen有一个16岁的儿子，名叫Jerry，他有唱歌和主持派对的天赋．

    解答 本题考查不定冠词的用法．第一空表示泛指，"一个儿子"，只能选用不定冠词a或an．又因16（sixteen）是以辅音因素开头的单词，故用a．第二空根据"has（原形have）___ gift for"可知，此处考查固定词组have a gift for，意为"有…天赋"．故选B．

    点评 不定冠词a用于辅音因素前，an用于元音因素前．

    18．Before the print was brought to England in 1476，everything was written by hand．The few people who knew how to write were trained in schools set up by the church．Those who made a living by writing for other people were called scribes（抄写员）．
    The work of scribes was not easy．Much of it had to be done fast in order to meet the needs of the King．the church and traders．Most of the writing was in Latin（拉丁），but some of it was in the English of the day．And no one was quite sure how some English words should be spelled．
    One problem was that several letters were written with short vertical strok（竖笔）that all looked like each other．Among them were the letters，i，u，v，m and n，Thus．five straight lines in a row might stand for uni nui uvi or mii．
    As a result．reading was sometimes difficult，especially when the writing was done in a hurry．
    The scribes solved（解决）the problem in part，by changing the letter u to o when it came before m．n or v．This is how sum and cum came to be written as some and come．
    At some point，too，the scribes seemed to have decided that no English word should be ended by u or v．Thus，in time an e was added to such words as live，have，due and true．It was added，but not pronounced．

    25．Which of the following is true according to the passage？B
    A．Everything has been written by hand in English since 1476．
    B．The church set up schools to train scribes before 1476．
    C．More than 500years ago no people made a living by writing for other people．
    D．Scribes in England worked only for kings and traders．
    26．Sometimes people couldn't read easilyC
    A．because there were too many u's and v's in sonic English words．
    B．because most of the writing was in Latin．
    C．When tile writing was done hurriedly．
    D．when the writing was in English．
    27．The scribes changed u before m to o becauseD
    A．the change helped them write faster         
    B．om was the right order
    C．um and om had the same pronunciation      
    D．the change made reading easier
    28．It is believed that some scribes thoughtB
    A．it important to add an e to every English word
    B．an English word should be ended neither by n nor by v
    C．it natural to change the spelling of sonic Latin words
    D．the letter e at the end of any word shouldn't be pronounced．

    20．I'm afraid we have to accept the fact that criminals are getting younger all the time，but unfortunately the crimes are becoming more serious．I only wish we didn't have to admit this but，in doing so，we must first ask ourselves what's wrong with our society，or else our children clearly couldn't care less about law and order．
    The days of the sneak thief who stole a couple of apples or a packet of sweets from a chain store are actually over．I had a chance to say this to a young offender the other day，"Sweets from a chain store？"He said，"You must be joking．That's what kids do．"I may add that he was aged 11．In other words，today's young criminals would find it laughable to risk being caught for petty theft of this description．They've got enough money in their pockets to buy the sweets they want，anyway．I think it's all too easy to put the blame on anyone but ourselves．
    Faced as they are with a society that frequently gives them up on the grounds of color，race or low learning ability，these children turn to crime as a means of showing off their self-respect．Nurtured on films and TV glamorizing （美化） the role of the criminal，they are quick to copy these anti-heroes．It is a matter of increasing concern to the police and government that the Children and Young Persons Act，1969，is becoming improper to deal with the rise in young criminals．Because the emphasis has been placed on the cause and gentle treatment of their crimes，rather than on old-fashioned methods of punishment，the children themselves know well that there is very little that can be done to prevent them continuing to steal，damage and in some case even cause the death of those they choose to terrorize （恐吓）．I don't like the look of this situation any more than you do．In our own interests and in those of our children and grandchildren，we cannot continue to take the"it's nothing to do with me"attitude we have used for so long．We must unite in a common demand for harder and stricter methods against these young criminals．
    66．By raising the question"Sweets from the chain store？"，the writer was asking the boy whetherC
    A．he wanted some sweets from a chain store
    B．stealing sweets from a chain store was illegal
    C．he was caught while stealing from a chain store
    D．the days of stealing sweets from a chain store were over
    67．Psychologically speaking，the reason why some youngsters commit crimes is thatB
    A．they want to take revenge on society
    B．they think it a way of showing their self-respect
    C．they are good at imitating the criminals in the films
    D．they don't know what they are doing is against the law
    68．In dealing with young criminals，the writer is obviously in favor ofA．
    A．severe punishment once used in the past
    B．showing great concern about our children
    C．more patient methods in educating young criminals
    D．treating every young criminal as our own child
    69．In the writer's opinion，who should be blamed most？D
    A．TV and films．B．Young criminals．C．Police．D．Society．
