A

Tokyo is one of those places that you can love and hate at the same time. In Tokyo there are always too many people in the places where I want to be. Of course there are too many cars. The Japanese drive very fast, but in Tokyo they often spend a long time in traffic jams. Tokyo is not different from London, Paris and New York in that. It is different when one wants to walk.

At certain times of the day there are a lot of people on foot in London's Oxford Street. But the streets near the Ginze in Tokyo always have a lot of people on foot, and sometimes it is really difficult to walk. People are very polite; there are just too many of them.

The worst time to be in the street is at 11:30 at night. That is when the night-clubs are closing and everybody wants to go home. There are 35,000 nightclubs in Tokyo, and you do not often see one that is empty.

During the day, most people travel to and from work by train. Tokyo people buy six million train tickets every day. At most stations, trains arrive every two or three minutes, but at certain hours there do not seem to be enough trains. Although they are usually crowded, Japanese trains are very good. They always leave and arrive on time. On a London train you would see everybody

reading a newspaper. In Tokyo trains everybody in a seat seems to be asleep, whether his journey is long or short.

In Tokyo, I stood outside the station for five minutes. Three fire-engines raced past on the way to one of the many fires that Tokyo has every day. Tokyo has so many surprises that none of them can really surprise me now.

44. Fires break out ____ in Tokyo according to the writer. A. quite frequently B. only a few times a day C. not very often D. very seldom

45. Which of the following is NOT true about Tokyo ? A. The streets become more crowded at 11:30 at night. B. There are more trains than cars.

B (七选五)

Did you know that a turtle（乌龟）can lay 12 eggs in one minute? A large sea turtle lays around 150 eggs at a time. 46

Large sea turtles live in the warm seas of the world. Except for when they lay their eggs, they spend their whole lives in the water. When it is time to lay their eggs, the females swim to land. _ 47_ However, how they find their way back there is unknown.

When they reach shore, the big, heavy turtles crawl slowly up to the high water mark. Using their flippers（鳍状肢）, they pull themselves along the sand. They must struggle like mountain climbers. __48

A. They usually return to the place where they themselves were born. B. You may see tiny black balls coming out of the sand.

C. When they finally reach dry sand, they rest before beginning the difficult task of laying eggs.

Thank you for the lovely day we have with you. It was so kind for you to let us bring Anne’s friend, Gina. unfortunately, the only problem was the journey home. There had been a terrible accident on the highway and ,for a result, there was a long line of traffic for at least six mile. In the end, we drove to a service station and waited there unless the road was clear. In the car park here Gina nearly got knocked over as car drove out far too quickly from behind a lorry. They finally dropped Gina off at her parents’ and made our own way to home.

Much love , Fiona 五．英汉互译（10）
