根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Millions of people all over the world use the word OK.In fact, some people say the word is used more often than any other word in the world.OK means all right or acceptable.It expresses agreement or approval.1. Some people say it came from the Native American Indian tribe known as the Choctaw(乔克托语).The Choctaw word “okeh” means the same as the American word okay.Experts say early explorers in the American West spoke the Choctaw language in the nineteenth century.But many people doubt this.Language expert Allen Walker Read wrote about the word “OK” in reports published in the 1960s.He said the word began being used in the 1830s. 2.Some foreign-born people wrote “ all correct” as “o-l-l-k-o-r-r-e-c-t”, and used the letters OK.Other people say a railroad worker named Obadiah Kelly invented the word long ago.They said he put the first letters of his name---O and K---on each object people gave him to send on the train.3. The organization supported Martin Van Buren for president in 1840.They called their group the OK club.The letters were taken from the name of the town where Martin was born---Old Kinderhook, New York.Then there is the expression A-OK.It is a space-age expression.It was used in 1961 during the flight of astronaut Alan Shepard.He was the first American to be launched into space.His flight ended when his spacecraft landed in the ocean, as planned.Shepard reported, “Everything is A-OK.” 4. One story says it was first used during the early days of the telephone to tell an operator that a message had been received.There are also funny ways to say okay.5. These expressions were first used in the 1930s.Today, a character on the American television series “The Simpsons” says it another way.He says okely-doke.
A. Some people say okey-dokey or okey-doke. |
B. Still others say a political organization invented the word. |
C. Therefore, it has become popular in that area from then on. |
D. But many experts don’t agree on what the expression means. |
E. Still, language experts do not agree about where the word came from. |

Have you ever had a science class that you look forward to? It doesn’t happen often. But when you have a teacher like Mrs. Field, it’s more than a science class. It’s a science class where learning is easy and fun. There is no getting down to a huge textbook or listening to a teacher about something you don’t care about.
My experience with Mrs. Field didn’t start with science class, but with her as my tutor. I was always a weak reader and wasn’t getting any better. My parents told me I needed to be tutored. One day after school, I went into the library with my mom for my first tutoring time. I had no idea who was tutoring me. My mom practically had to drag me into the library. The first thing we did was to play a game to get to know each other and get rid of the awkwardness. We didn’t even play a reading game.
We also went around the library and I got to pick out a book I wanted to read. She didn’t make me read a boring textbook about something I didn’t care about. I didn’t even pick a book. I picked out a magazine about remote control cars. I thought to myself, how bad could it be? To my surprise, She told me even though I was reading a magazine, I was still reading. After the first magazine, she picked out a book she liked. I would read a chapter and then she would read a chapter to me, in this way I didn’t have to read for long periods of time.
As I got better and faster at reading, I was able to read two chapters in the same amount of time, which used to take me to read one chapter.
Reading is one of the most important things in high school and college to be successful. If it were not for her, I would not be the reader I am today !

As a capital city full of art and history, London is an important political centre and a huge financial marketplace. Whatever you think about London, visiting as a tourist is very different from living there. Each part of London has its own character. Some parts are richer than others, or more industrial, or have better housing.
Let’s start with the centre, the “Square Mile”. This is the oldest part of London. In the past, it was where all financial business was done. Not many people live here, but 300,000 people work here every day.
Moving west, we come to the West End. This busy shopping and entertainment district is bursting with things to do. Take a walk down Oxford Street, and you will see big department stores like Selfridges and Harrods. Rents here are very high; a one-bedroom apartment may cost around 1,000 pounds a week. Further away is West London. This area is more residential(住宅的)and very fashionable.
The East End contains the Port of London, which historically is where many immigrants first arrived. Waves of French, Belgians, Jews, Pakistanis and Bangladeshis have all lived here. This makes the culture of this area very various. London won the bid to hold the Olympics in 2012, so many Londoners hope that housing, education and employment for many people in this area will improve.
It is difficult to be general about London. The city is made up of a " collection of villages”, each area with its own character and community. Put them all together, and you have London, an international capital.

A. It is the oldest part of London.

2.Tom, an American, wants to go shopping in London. He had better go to .
A. the East End B. the West End
C. the Port of London D. the Square Mile
3.According to the passage, Harrods is .

4.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?

B. There must be many ships in the East End.
C. People living in the East End have good housing.
