Paul and Jason were brothers who lived and worked on neighbouring farms. For 35 years they farmed side by side, sharing machinery and goods as needed, without a single problem.
However, one autumn, things changed. It began with a tiny disagreement about a horse, which grew into a major difference. The difference led to angry words, followed by weeks of silence between the brothers.
One morning there was a knock on Paul's door. He opened it and saw a builder holding his toolbox. "I'm looking for a few days' work, " the builder said. "Are there any jobs I could help with "
"Yes, " answered Paul, extremely pleased to see the builder. "I do have a job for you. Look at that farm across the creek（小溪）. That's' my brother's farm. That creek used to be a grass field but last week my brother dug a path from the river and made the creek. But I'll go him one better. See that pile of wood I want you to build me a fence, two metres tall, so I won't need to see him anymore."
The builder said thoughtfully, "I think I understand the situation and I'll be able to do a job that pleases you.”
Paul had business in town that day and left the builder to his work. When he returned, the builder had just finished his job. Paul was shocked. Instead of a fence, there was a bridge, stretching from one side of the creek to the other.
As Paul stood on the bridge, staring in amazement, his younger brother Jason, came across, and took Paul's hand. "You are a good man to have built this bridge after all I've done, " said Jason. Then, Paul, with tears in his eyes, said to the builder who was packing his bag to go, "Thank you so much. Please stay. I have much more for you to do."
"I'd love to." The builder said quickly, "but, I have many more bridges to build."

第三节、阅读表达,根据短文内容，回答下列问题。（2020年山东临沂）
“Stop! Stop！”
The police officer ran down the street as fast as he could. “Stop！” he said again. But it was no use. The car kept going. The officer said to himself, “They must be going ten miles an hour.”
There weren't many cars on the road in the early 1900s. Most people thought driving ten miles an hour was too fast for safety. And since police officers didn't have cars of their own, they could only run after speedsters(快速驾驶者).
The early cars were faster than the horse drawn buggies(马车) that most people still used. And they frightened (使惊恐) the horses. One car maker tried to keep the horses cool. He made the car with the horse's head. He hoped real horses would think it was a horse and buggy. They didn't. It frightened them just as much.
The car with the horse's head wasn't the only early car that would look strange today. Some looked like buggies without a horse. Others had three wheels (轮子). A few even had their steering wheels (方向盘) in the back seat.

36．B 37．A 38．C 39．D 40．B
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。短文讲述了两个好兄弟因为一件小事吵架了，其中Jason在他们的农场之间挖了条小溪，Paul就打算让建筑工做个栅栏，结果建筑工却修了桥，让两兄弟重归于好。
36．细节理解题。从第二段第二句“It began with a tiny disagreement about a horse, which grew into a major difference. The difference led to angry words…”可知，两兄弟间之间的分歧和不愉快是因为“马”。故选B。
37．词义猜测题。根据上下文“That creek used to be a grass field but last week my brother dug a path from the river and made the creek.”和“See that pile of wood I want you to build me a fence, two metres tall, so I won't need to see him anymore.”可知，因为兄弟两人之间有隔阂，Jason挖小溪，Paul想做栅栏，这样就看不到Jason了，可推测出go him one better在这里的意思是“我比他干得更绝”。故选A。
38．判断推理题。根据倒数第二段中“As Paul stood on the bridge, staring in amazement, his younger brother Jason, came across, and took Paul's hand. ‘You are a good man to have built this bridge after all I've done,’ said Jason. Then, Paul, with tears in his eyes, said to the builder…‘Thank you so much.’”可知，兄弟两人在建筑工修建的桥上意识到各自的错误，重归于好。故选C。
39．判断推理题。根据第五段“The builder said thoughtfully, ‘I think I understand the situation and I'll be able to do a job that pleases you.’”和第六段中“Instead of a fence, there was a bridge, stretching from one side of the creek to the other.”以及倒数第二段中“As Paul stood on the bridge, staring in amazement, his younger brother Jason, came across, and took Paul's hand. ‘You are a good man to have built this bridge after all I've done,’ said Jason.”可知，Paul要求建筑工做栅栏，可建筑工却建了桥，两兄弟重归于好，所以建筑工建桥的目的就是让两兄弟和好。故选D。
40．排序题。根据短文内容可知，Paul和Jason因为一匹马而产生了隔阂，彼此都生对方的气，Jason在农场之间挖了小溪。一个建筑工来到Paul的农场找工作，Paul想让建筑工修建一个围栏；而在Paul进城的时候，建筑工却在小溪上修了座桥，让两兄弟和好了。故选B。

43．except
【详解】句意：除星期一外，他每天上班。表达“除了，除……以外”用介词except。故填except。

66．例文
I’m Li Xiang, a student in Grade 8. My friends and I just arrived in Hong Kong by plane. Now we are going to Disneyland from the airport. There’re three ways to get there.
We can go there by train. It’s the fastest way and it’ll take us only fifteen minutes to get there. And it’s also the cheapest. You can see a lot of Disney characters on the train. It’s interesting.
The second choice is by bus. The seats on the bus are tidy and comfortable, but it is the slowest way to get there.
The last way to get there is by taxi. You can take a taxi at any time, so it’s very convenient. But it costs the most—HK$110. I think it’s not a good way for a student.
We decide to take a train there. Do you think I make a right choice
