一、语法选择（共15小题，每题1分，满分15分）
It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain 1 almost a month. The crops were dying. If we 2 see some rain soon, we would lose everything.
I was making lunch in the kitchen when I saw my 3 son, Billy, walking towards the woods. He was walking with
a great effort... trying to be as still as possible. Minutes later, he was once again walking towards the woods. I 4 stand it any longer. I went out of the house and followed him.
He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked, being very careful not to spill (溢出）the water he carried.
As I came closer, I saw 5 sight. Several large deer stood in front of him. Billy walked straight up to them. I almost screamed for him to get away. But the deer 6 hurt him nor even moved as Billy got down. And then I saw a baby deer 7 on the ground, thirsty, lift its head to lap up(舔) the water in my boy’s hands. When the water was gone, Billy jumped up to run back to the house. I followed him back to a tap. Billy opened it and let the drip slowly fill up his “cup”.
8 he stood up and began to turn back, I was there in front of him. His little eyes 9 with tears. Very quickly, he explained 10 he was not wasting water. The week before, he had made 11 same trouble with our horses, 12 caused him a lecture from his father about the importance of not wasting water.
This time, I joined him, with a small pot of water from the kitchen. I let him 13 the baby deer alone , for it was 14 job. As the tears that rolled down my face began to hit the ground, they 15 by other drops... more drops... and more. I looked up at the sky. All I can say is that the rain came that day saved our farm, just like the actions of one little boy saved the little deer.

Finally, my mom helped me call the local primary school. They told me about Jaila, the daughter of a poor single mother. I was given a telephone number and 19 , and I soon found myself at Jaila’s.
The moment I went into Jaila’s room, I knew I had taken on too big a task. When I pushed the old door open, it made a long high noise. But the door was nothing compared with the rest of the room. Some old paint was 20 the wall. One of the windows was 21 . The bed was just a mattress（床垫）on the old carpet. It seemed that the room needed 22 furniture —it cried —for a complete makeover（翻新）.

In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to thin k that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.
The express0ion was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.
It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.
Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it "Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States.“Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people aroun d you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers throughout the country for over 28 years. People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.

Although people everywhere seem to enjoy drinking coffee，they don't all have the same coffee culture. In Europe for example, coffee shops are common places for people to meet friends while they drink coffee. On the other hand, places like this were not as common in North America in the past. Instead, people in North America liked to drink coffee in their homes with friends. The coffee culture in the USA changed, when Starbucks (星巴克) coffee shops spread throughout the country．
The first Starbucks coffee shop opened in 1971 in downtown Seattle, Washington，in the USA. It was a small coffee shop that cooked its own coffee beans. The coffee shop's business did well, and by 1981 there were three Starbucks stores in Seattle.
Things really began to change for the company in 1981. That year, Howard Schultz met the three men who ran Starbucks. Schultz worked in New York for a company that made kitchen equipment (设备) . He noticed that Starbucks ordered a large number of special coffee makers, which caused his great interest. Schultz went to Seattle to see what Starbucks did. In 1982, the original Starbucks owners hired Schultz as the company's head of marketing (市场营销).
In 1983, Schultz traveled to Italy. The special environment of the espresso (浓咖啡) bars there caught his eyes. Back in the USA, Schultz created an environment for Starbucks coffee shops that was comfortable and casual, and customers everywhere seemed to like it. Starbucks began opening more stores in the USA. Then the company opened coffee shops in other countries as well. Today, there are more than 16,000 Starbucks coffee shops all over the world.
However，that does not mean Starbucks has not had problems. In fact, many Starbucks stores have closed over the past few years. On the one hand, this is because there were too many coffee shops competing (竞争) for business in one small area. On the other hand, stores in some countries closed because the coffee culture there did not match with the comfortable environment offered by Starbucks.
( )36. The underlined word "ran" in Paragraph 3 probably means .
A. closed
B. managed
C. made
D. sold
( )37. According to the passage, which is the right order for the following sentences？
a. This man helped to make Starbucks a huge coffee company.
b. Starbucks began as a small coffee company in Seattle in the USA.
c. He went to Seattle to learn about the company and later worked for it.
d. Howard Schultz found Starbucks ordered lots of special coffee makers.
A. a﹣b﹣d﹣c
B. c﹣a﹣b﹣d
C. b﹣d﹣c﹣a
D. d﹣c﹣a﹣b
( )38. Why did so many Starbucks close in small areas？
A. Because the coffee in these places was too expensive
B. Because the style of the coffee stores seems the same．
C. Because people like to drink coffee at home with friends
D. Because there were too many coffee shops in one place．
( )39. To tell us the story of Starbucks, the writer did the following except .
A. introducing how Starbucks became successful
B. showing what Schultz did to help Starbucks become successful
C. telling what difficulties Starbucks faces
D. telling what Starbucks did to deal with his problems
( )40. What's the best title for the passage？
A. The History of Starbucks
B. The Culture of Starbucks
C. The Popularity of Starbucks
D. The environment of Starbucks
( D )
Do you have a good sense of direction？If not, please take with you a compass. But if you forget to take a compass, you can still find your way during the trip.
Suppose you are hiking with your family somewhere in the mountain in Dan Xia Mountain, you need to find the direction of south to find your way back. But none of your family members can read the map and actually knows where the family is. Never mind. The sun is shining and it’s still morning. If you don't know the exact time，you can still find out where south is, but you'll need to be patient.
①Find a straight stick and put it in the ground in a place where you can mark its shadow.
②Try to put the stick as vertically (垂直) as you can. You can check this by making a simple plumb line (铅锤线) with a piece of string (绳子) and weight. You haven't got any string? Ok, use a thread from your clothes with a button tied at the end to act as a weight.
③After the stick is put vertically, you can see its shadow on the ground. Mark the end of the shadow.
④Wait about half an hour and mark the end of the shadow again.
⑤Keep doing this until you have made several marks.
⑥The mark nearest the stick will show the shortest shadow when it is midday，because at that time the sun is highest in the sky and pointing to the exact south.
⑦Pick a point in the distance along the line between the shortest shadow and the stick.
⑧That point is south of where you are.
⑨Now you can turn the map, like you did before, and find which way you should choose for traveling.

A. it is not easy to find a proper stick

I would like to share my favourite story Tom Sawyer paints the fence with you.
The story Tom Sawyer paints the fence is written by Mark Twain, who is still well-known around the world because of his interesting novels. There are some characters in the story, including Tom, Becky, Ben, Aunt Polly and so on. Of course, Tom, the naughty but lovely boy is one of the main characters.)
The story takes place one afternoon in a town. Tom is required to paint the 3-yard-long fence by Aunt Polly. It is such hard work that Tom actually is unwilling to complete it. Suddenly, he thinks of an idea. When his friend passes by, Tom pretends to enjoy painting the fence and it is great fun to do it. Therefore, his friend becomes interested and begs Tom for a try. Later on, more boys are tricked into painting the fence and even offer their food and toys. At last, the fence gets 3 coats of paint. For Tom, he wins Aunt Polly’s praise and his friends’ toys and food as well.
In my opinion, the story is so interesting and enjoyable that it is worth reading.

Is it worth the wait? Yes, I assure you it is. Once inside, visitors find a long, dark room with a high ceiling. A single bright light shines through heavy rain falling around visitors. The mist. The damp air. The noise. It feels like a mighty storm is pouring down. But the storm is inside. And visitors aren’t getting wet. Instead, visitors wander in awe, admiring the rain and the artists who created it. The Rain Room was created to highlight the connection between humans, nature and technology.
