  17.Read the following paragraph and underline the topic sentence.

  Tornados form under very special weather conditions, and these special weather conditions occur most often in inland areas, such as the central United States. A tornado forms when a layer of warm, dry air is on top of a layer of cooler, moist air. This combination of dry, warm air above wet, cool air creates a condition that causes the lower layer of air to lift up. As the lower air rises, both layers of air begin to rotate, to turn around and around. The air begins to rotate faster and faster because of centrifugal(离心的) force. The tornado has a center called an “eye” and the air rotates quickly around this eye.

  18.Read the following paragraph carefully and select the best topic sentence from the four possible answers that follow the paragraph.

  Topic Sentence:____________________________________

  23.Wine was made in England in the Middle Ages, but the climate is not really suitable for grapevines.

  24.In wine-making, the grapes are crushed in a wine press and the yeast converts the sugar to alcohol, when there is no air present, by a process called fermentation.

  25.The most famous wine-making countries are France, Germany and Italy.

  V. Read the following paragraph and cross out irrelevant sentences.

  The chief reasons people wear masks are these: to have fun, to protect themselves, to disguise themselves, and to acquire a new identity. Masks are very useful. At Halloween, children wear masks for fun; they may, of course, also think they are disguising themselves, but chiefly their motive is to experience the joy of saying “boo” to someone. Soldiers wore masks for protection, in ancient times against swords and battle-axes, in more recent times against poison gas. Bank robbers wear masks to disguise themselves, and though of course this disguise is a sort of protection, a robber’s reason for wearing a mask is fairly distinct from a soldier’s. All of these reasons so far are easily understood, but we may have more trouble grasping the reason that primitive people use masks in religious rituals. Some ritual masks seem merely to be attempts to frighten away evil spirits, and some seem merely to be disguises so that the evil spirits will not know who the wearer is. The masks are usually made of paper. But most religious masks are worn with the idea that the wearer acquires, through a union with supernatural powers, a new identity, and thus in effect becomes—really becomes, not merely pretends to be—a new person.

  VI.写信(40 points)

  Write a letter to your friend according to the following situation: You(Weiping) haven’t heard from your friend(Zhijie) since the SARS outbreak. You tell him or her about yourself and the general situation in Beijing during that period. Since Beijing was taken off the list of SARS-infected areas, things have gradually come back to normal. You would encourage him or her to come for a visit in autumn, as it is the best season of the year.(150-200 words)
