Treasure hunts（尋寶）have excited people's imagination for hundreds of years both in real life and in books such as Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island. Kit Williams, a modern writer, had the idea of combining the real excitement of a treasure hunt with clues（線索）found in a book when he wrote a children's story, Masquerade, in 1979.The book was about a hare, and a month before it came out Williams buried a gold hare in a park in Bedfordshire. The book contained a large number of clues to help readers find the hare, but Williams put in a lot of "red herrings", or false clues, to mislead them.
Ken Roberts, the man who found the hare, had been looking for it for nearly two years. Although he had been searching in the wrong area most of the time, he found it by logic（邏輯）, not by luck. His success came from the fact that he had gained an important clue at the start. He had realized that the words: "One of Six to Eight "under the first picture in the book connected the hare in some way to Katherine of Aragon, the first of Henry VIII's six wives. Even here, however, Williams had succeeded in misleading him. Ken knew that Katherine of Aragon had died at Kimbolton in Cambridge shire in 1536and thought that Williams had buried the hare there. He had been digging there for over a year before a new idea occurred to him. He found out that Kit Williams had spent his childhood near Ampthill, in Bedfordshire, and thought that he must have buried the hare in a place he knew well, but he still could not see the connection with Katherine of Aragon, until one day he came across two stone crosses in Ampthill Park and learnt that they had been built in her honor in 1773.
Even then his search had not come to an end. It was only after he had spent several nights digging around the cross that he decided to write to Kit Williams to find out if he was wasting his time there. Williams encouraged him to continue, and on February 24th 1982, he found the treasure. It was worth ￡3000 in the beginning, but the excitement it had caused since its burial made it much more valuable.
67. The underlined word "them"（Paragraph 1）refers to ____.
A. red herrings B. treasure hunts
C. Henry VIII's six wives D. readers of Masquerade
68. What is the most important clue in the story to help Ken Roberts find the hare？

D. to inform people where the gold hare was
70. Which of the following describes Roberts’ logic in searching for the hare?
a. Henry VIII's six wives
b. Katherine's burial place at Kimbolton
c. Williams’ childhood in Ampthill
d. Katherine of Aragon
e. stone crosses in Ampthill Park

閱讀下面短文并回答問題，然后將答案寫在第二卷對應的橫線上（請注意問題后的詞數要求）
【1】If you are worried about things and are under a lot of stress at work or school, then you are probably not sleeping well. Worry can keep you awake, tossing and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fail asleep. When you wake up, you don't feel refreshed, but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.
【2】Dr Henry Winkle wrote an article in a recent newspaper, which indicates that . Dr Winkle says, “The more we worry, the less we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with stress. If we can find a way to get a good night's sleep,” he adds, “we can often find the energy to deal with what's worrying us.”
【3】So, what is a good night's sleep? Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy varies a lot. Seven hours in about the average amount, though strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more refreshed.
【4】Dr Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired. A bedtime drink can also help, but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine and will keep you awake. “When you put the light out,” Dr Winkle says, “ concentrate on relaxing your muscles, working slowly up from your feet, and you'll be asleep before you know it.”
1.What is the best title of the text? (no more than 10 words)
2.Which sentence in the text can be replaced by the following one?
People shouldn't go to sleep immediately but should take a break after working late in the night.
3.Please fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words or phrase to complete the sentence. (no more than 10 words)
4.Someone says that the longer you sleep, the better you feel. Try to find some arguments from the text against the idea. (no more than 30 words)

The famous car Rolls-Royce has been largely hand-made and always one of the most expensive cars on the market.
In fact, Rolls-Royce is made up of two men’s names, Charles S. Rolls and Henry Royce. They came from very different backgrounds, received very different educations and when they met; their careers were going in very different directions.
In 1903, Royce bought a second-hand France Decauville car. He found the car unreliable, difficult to start and overheated. Royce decided he could do better himself and set about building two-cylinder (雙杠發動機) car of his own design. The first of these, built almost completely by Royce himself, was a success in almost every way: it started easily, ran smoothly and was very reliable. It never failed to impress everyone who saw it rode in the car, including Rolls.
While he was a university student at Cambridge, Rolls acquired a French Peugeot. It was the first automobile seen at Cambridge and by the time Rolls finished his studies, he was probably the most skilled driver in Britain. In 1902, Rolls went into the business of selling cars and became a leading automobile distributor. He was looking for a British car to market when he was told that Henry Royce had designed and built a two-cylinder automobile.
In 1904, Royce and Rolls joined together to build and sell motor car. They combined their talents—Royce the engineer and Rolls the salesman and businessman.
And, just two years later, the partnership produced the Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost, a milestone car acclaimed (盛贊) by many by the time as the “ best in the world”. Over the years the automaker built a legendary reputation.
1.The Rolls-Royce is expensive for its ______ .
|
A．procedure |
B．engine |
|
C．function |
D．impression |
2.The underlined word “distributor” in Paragraph 4 probably means ______ .
|
A．boss |
B．producer |
|
C．buyer |
D．seller |
3.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
|
A．The Rolls-Royce car is the most expensive car in the world. |
|
B．The two cylinder car built by Royce failed to impress people. |
|
C．When Rolls graduated from Cambridge University, he didn’t do well in driving. |
