Some people laughed at him: One man said, "He may not be the first to fly across the Channel but he will certainly be the first to die in an accident!". But Bleriot was really a good and brave pilot.

The other man was Hubert Latham. He was half French and half English. He__________flying when his doctors told him he had only a year to live. "Oh, well,"he said, "ifit's true that.

C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.（在短文的空格内填入适合的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给）（共24分）
（1）
A young queen was given a magic box by a great wizard. The box would bring happiness to
the whole country whenever it was opened in a place f 73 of the spirit of generosity.
The queen traveled all over the country, looking for the most generous people. If she collected them all, she would open the magic box. However, nothing special happened. How d74 she felt！
Until one day when returning to her p 75 , the queen saw a poor little boy. She would like to give the boy some money but she didn't t have any with her. So the boy asked her if she could give him the old box. Then he could sell it for a little money. At first the queen h ,because she had been told the box was magic. But on seeing how poor the boy was, she gave it to him. The boy took the box and opened it.
Immediately, all the most wonderful things one could imagine started flying out of the box, with the sound of singing: “ W_77 look for it in others? Goodness always starts in yourself.”
While enjoying all the wonders of the magic box, the queen learned to set an e 78 to others, and she became the best queen ever in history.
73:full。考查形容词，full of充满……的，介词短语作后置定语，充满慷慨灵魂的地方。
74:disappointed。考查感叹句中的形容词，前一句写到没什么特殊的事情发生，她感到非常失望。
75:palace。考查名词，return to是回到某地的意思，依据文章大意可知女王是回我们的宫殿。
76:hesitated。考查动词且是一个不及物动词，前文说到女王回宫殿时遇到的那个男生请求女王将魔法盒给他，再通过at first 和后文的because可知女王犹豫了，because简单讲解了犹豫是什么原因。
77:why。考查疑问副词。第一明确该句中的it指代首段中的the spirit ofgenerosity，再由后面的goodness always starts in yourself可知是问为何要在其他人身上找那种品质。
78:example。考查名词，set an example在此为树立榜样的意思。
（2）
Today I’ll be talking about the start of the camera and photography. The camera is often thought to be a modern i_79_ but as early as 1727, a German physicist discovered that light darkens silver salt. Used as camera, a big box was set up, and a small hole was cut in one side to let the light in, he made temporary pictures on the salt. Silver salt is s____________________the base of the photographic film today. Then a French scientist made the first permanent（永久的）picture by using a special piece of metal which was covered with silver salt. A photograph he made in 1826 now exists.
The Painter De Gear improved the process（制作法）by covering the metal also with placing the common salt which we can eat. This was in 1839, the official date of the b__________of photographs. But the problem was the printing of the photographs. And it wasn’t until other scientists developed the kind of photographic paper we now use that good prints were possible and photography b __________
truly modern. In the 1870’s, Matthew Bradey was able to take his famous pictures in American Civil War In. the 20’s of this century, Georges Mann of the United States simplified film developing （冲洗）, and Dr Edward Lane invented the so-called ‘Instant Camera＇which uses self-developing film.
Nowadays, cell phones are more widely-used as everyone’s cameras. They are both ______________________________to take photos and superior in quality. If we say photography came into existence in 1839, it follows that it took more than 100 years for the camera to r__________ts present condition of technical refinement（密度）.
79:invention。考查名词，modern意为现代的当代的，该句说到相机被觉得是一种当代的什么，从无到有应该是一种创造。
80:still。考查副词，本句不缺成分，前面说到silver salt被用在照相中，从该句中的today可知silver salt到今天仍然还是影像的基础。
81:beginning。考查名词，date of 有追溯的意思，依据文章大意可知是追溯相片的由来。
82:became。考查动词，该句大意为直到科学家创造出胶卷拍照才变得真的地现代化。
83:convenient，考查形容词，they指代cell phones，be动词后接的形容词用来修饰该句的主语，依据句意可知手机拍照是很便捷的。
84:reach。考查动词，it take+一段时间+to do sth ，it作形式主语，假如说1839年拍照技术就存在了的话，那样相机用了一百多年的时间才达至今的技术成就。
D. Answer the questions:
In 1909, an enterprising American named Harry Selfridge went to Britain and opened a store on London's Oxfold Street. It was called Selfridge'sand it started a new kind of shopping experience. It was such a grand place that shoppers could wander from floor to floor buy clothes, cosplaymetics, furniture, toys and a seemingly limitless variety of other items, each in their separate sections, or departments. Selfridge's department store made shopping enjoyable, and it treated its customers like kings. As Harry liked to say, "The customer is always right.
Selfridge 's department store idea caught on worldwide and in 1918 the Kwok brothers, originally from Australia, opened their Yong AnDepartment Storeon Nanjing Road in Shanghai. It's still there today but its future, along with that of other department stores, may be in question. Modern shoppers are changing their habits and deserting department-stores. The latest victim is the once hugely popular Pacific Department Storeon Middle Huaihai Road, which closed its doors at the end of last year
Increasingly, shoppers are spending their money at“ specialty" retail stores.They
are buying their clothes at Uniqlo and Hfont-family:等线;font-size:10.5pt;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;">China, in general, has become a consumer society. Consumer spending has become an important part of the country,'s economic development, which now accounts for 60 percent of GDP, about 30 trillion（万亿）yuan. That's a lot of cash and retailers know that they will have to change and adapt to consumer demands if they hope to succeed, because it's as true today as it was in Harry Selfridge 's time——the customer is always right
85. Harry Selfridge had a great influence on people's shopping experience, didn,t he?
86. How were customers treated in Selfridge 's?
87. What happened to Pacific Department Store on Middle Huaihai Road?

89. Why has consumer spending become an important part of the country's economic development?
90. Why are online shops, more popular than traditional department stores? Can you give some useful advice to the operators of department stores?
85. Yes, he did.
分析：依据文章第一段有说“…Selfridge'sand it started a new kind of shopping experience.”可得。
86. The customers are treated like kings.
分析：依据文章中第一段倒数第二句“…and it treated its customers like kings.”可得。
87. It closed its doors at the end of last year.
分析：依据文章第二段最后一句可得。
