单选题Rome"s fire-fighting brigade remained until the fall of the empire in the 4th century. In the Dark Ages that followed, it was believed that fires were God"s punishment of the people for the bad thing they had done. And from the 4th to the 14th century, men often did not try very hard to put out the fires that broke out. Many families were made homeless and there was much needless sufferings. It was not until the 1600s that towns and cities in Europe started their own fire brigades. Fire hazards were many in this period. Homes were heated by wood or dried grass. They were lighted by candle flame or by oil lamp. Cooking was done over open fires. Sometimes villages, towns and even cities were completely leveled once a rue broke out in a house or in a shop. In 1600s almost all of London was burned down. This terrible fire started when a baker dropped hot coals on the floor. London burned for six days. The largest fire in the United States was in 1871. It mined most of Chicago. It is believed to have started when a cow kicked over a lamp in a cowshed. Early fire fighters were not paid. They did not work full time. They all had other trades. It was not until about a hundred years ago that firemen were given money for their work. Today modem equipment helps the trained firemen to do a much better job. Fire will remain a hazard, but the men of the fire departments all over the world will continue to lessen the dangers.

单选题Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 unfinished statements or questions. For each statement there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, you should make the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Relations between the United States and Columbia suffered for many years because of an incident involving the Republic of Panama. By the end of the Spanish-American war, Americans felt an easier and faster way was needed to get ships from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean. Some people in the United States first believed a canal across Nicaragua was the answer. However, President Theodore Roosevelt decided that a canal through Panama would be a better choice. In order to build the canal, the United States had to negotiate with Columbia, which at the time controlled Panama. Roosevelt offered Colombia, $10 million plus $250,000 a year for a six-mile-wide strip of land across Panama. Columbia rejected the U.S. offer. This angered President Theodore Roosevelt, and negotiations with Columbia ended. In 1903, a revolution broke out in Panama. United States ships were sent by President Roosevelt to protect Panamanian revolutionaries from Columbia forces. The revolution succeeded, and Panama declared its independence from Columbia. The United States then negotiated with the newly formed government. A treaty was signed, and the United States began building the canal. As a result of the incident, Columbia and the United States remained on bad terms for many years. Not until 1921, when the United States agreed to pay Columbia some compensation for the loss of its territory, did relations between the two countries improve.
