Treating disease by bathing has been popular for centuries.Modern medical bathing first became popular in Europe and by the late 1700s it had also become popular in the United States. For many years frequent bathing was believed to be bad for ones health.Ordinary bathing just to keep clean was avoided,and perfume was often used to cover up body smells! By the 1700s doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health.They believed that it was good for people to be clean.Slowly,people began to bathe more frequently.During the Victorian Age of the late 19th century,taking a bath on Saturday night became common. In the United States ordinary bathing was slow to become popular.During the 18th and early 19th century,many Americans were known as “The Great Unwashed!”In one American city,for example,a person was only allowed to take a bath every thirty days!That was a law! Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit.People know that bathing for cleanliness is important to health.Doctors know that dirty bodies increase the chance of diseases.As a result,in the United States,people generally bathe often.Some people bathe once a day at least.They consider a daily bath essential to good health.41.A water system for baths was built by_over 3 000 years ago.A.the Romans B.the GreeksC.the Americans D.the Europeans答案:B42.Dirty bodies can_.A.ruin ones business B.cause diseaseC.drive customers away D.cause good health答案:B43.In the 18th century doctors believed that being clean was_.A.unimportant B.good for healthC.harmful D.important答案:B44.The underlined word “perfume” in this passage probably means_.A.a sweet smelling substance B.good healthC.a terrible smelling substance D.large wealth答案:A45.Which of the following gives the main idea of the passage?A.Everybody in America takes a daily bath.B.A bath a day keeps the doctor away.C.Taking baths has become popular in the world.D.Bathing has become easier and cheaper.答案:C.短文改错(本题共5小题，计5分) When I first learned to write in English,I ran into many difficulties.The main problem was in 46._答案:去掉第二个inthat I always thought in Chinese and tried to translate anything into English.My teacher47. _答案:anythingeverythingadvised me to keep my diary.I followed her advice and put down 100 words or so each day.48. _答案:myaSoon I began to enjoy talking to myself on paper as I was learning to express myself with49._答案:withinsimple English.And now I find easy and interesting to learn English. 50._答案:find后加it.汉译英(本题共5小题，计10分)51.如果你出去，谁将照顾孩子呢？答案:If you go out,who will attend to the baby?52.那年轻人工作真卖力，他将来会有出息的。答案:The young man works really hard;he will go far.53.在交通问题将会改善这个问题上，我并不抱多大希望。答案:I dont hold out much hope that our traffic troubles will improve.54.离开图书馆前你应该把书放好。答案:You are supposed to put away the books before you leave the library.55.经过长途跋涉后，他们最终到达了纽约。答案:After a long journey they arrived at length in New York.7用心 爱心 专心
