A) 阅读下列短文,从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。(答案涂在答题纸上)
A
What does the word “home” mean to you? How do you say the word in French? In Spanish? In your language? Although people usually know what the word means it often has no exact translation. It’s not surprising really, because the idea of home varies from country to country, and from person to person. A home is more than a roof and four walls. It’s the cooking, eating, talking, playing and family living tha t go on inside, which are important as well. And at home you usually feel safe and relaxed.
But it’s not just that homes look different in different countries, they also contain different things and reveal different attitudes and needs. For example, in cold northern Europe, there’s a fire in the living room or kitchen and all the chairs face it. In the south, where the sun shines a lot and it’s more important to keep the heat out, there are small windows, cool stone floors and often no carpets. We asked
A. people can’t find this word in the dictionary
B. no one knows what it is
C. it has different meanings in different countries
D. people can’t understand each other very well
52. You can ______ at home according to the passage.
A. cook, talk, and play games
B. eat, play, and teach students
C. swim, eat, and make friends
D. do nothing
53. Why is it important to keep the heat out of the houses in southern Europe?
A. Because they want to breathe fresh air outside.
B. Because there’s a fire in the living room.
C. Because they wear heavy clothing all day long.
D. Because the sun there shines a lot.
54. How often do people move home in the United States?
A. Every year.
B. Every five years or less.
C. Every ten years or so.
D. They don’t move until they die.
55. Which one is true according to the passage?
A. People in Britain seldom have balconies because it’s s o hot outside.
B. “Home” is a place where you feel safe and relaxed.
C. Although homes look different in different countries, they have the same needs.
D. Houses in northern Europe always have big windows and cool stone floors.
B) 阅读下列短文,然后回答问题、完成句子或表格。(答案写在答题纸上)
B
I saw my first tiger in a national park in India. It was a young male and he was drinking at a waterhole. He raised his head slowly and stared at us for a full minute. Then he turned his back on us and disappeared quickly into the jungle.
Twenty years ago, the tiger was in trouble. In India its numbers were around 1,800. Then the Indian government launched Project Tiger, which set up many national parks all over the country.
In Africa, the most important species in da nger is the elephant, the world’s largest living land mammal. In 1979 there were 1.3 million elephants there. Ten years later, numbers were down to 600,000. Conservationists warned that the species could be extinct by the end of the century. But slowly the situation has changed: the demand for ivory has fallen sharply, and now the number of elephants is increasing rapidly; there are many more than there were sixteen years ago.
On the other side of the world, the grey whales of Baja California nearly disappeared during the last century. Fortunately, the US Marine Mammals Protection Act of 1972 saved them. The grey whales recovered quickly. Today
there are perhaps 20,000 and these gentle giants are now worth far more alive than dead.
Today, wildlife is good for the tourist trade. And tourism — provided it takes only pictures and leaves only footprints — is good for the national parks. If wildlife can always be treated in this way, animals can live and thrive in the world.

65. The passage is mainly about ______.

Can a person make it rain? Many people believed that Charles Hatfield could. In the early 1910s, Mr Hatfield traveled to many places bringing rain to farms and cities that suffered from drought. For 30 years, people considered him the greatest rainmaker in North America.
One of Mr Hatfield’s most amazing rainmaking accomplishments happened in southern California in 1916. Mr Hatfield offered to give the city of San Diego a hand with its water problem. He planned to create enough rain to fill the lake behind Morena Dam near the city. Since the time the dam was built, the lake had never been more than half full, but the lake could hold 15 billion gallons of water if it were full. Filling the lake would help the city of San Diego with its constant water problems. Mr Hatfield suggested that if he succeeded in filling the lake with rainwater, the city would pay him $10,000. If no rain fell, the city would pay nothing. The city agreed.
On January 1, 1916, Mr Hatfield began his rainmaking procedure. It began to rain
four days later. The rain continued for the next five days. On January 10, it began to rain more heavily, and the rain continued for the next 10 days!The city of San Diego was flooded. Fifty people died. More than 200 bridges were washed away, and many miles of train tracks were destroyed. However, Mr Hatfield did succeed in filling the lake. He thought that he had completed his job, so he went to collect his money from the city. However, the city of San Diego backed out of the deal. They sa id that the rain was an “act of God” and not the work of the rainmaker.
66. Who was Charles Hatfield?
67. How much water did the lake have before Mr Hatfield made rain?
68. What happened when it rained in San Diego in 1916?
69. How long did it rain in San Diego?
70. Did the city pay Mr Hatfield in the end? Why or why not?

It appears that 90% of the world’s languages are likely to disappear in the next half century, according to a research conducted recently. 71 such language is Tofa, which is spoken by only about 60 people who herd reindeer on empty lands in central Siberia. The language 72 also spoken by Manchester University’s Gregory Anderson, who is fluent enough to be 73 to express what he wants to say. Academics from the university linguistics department are holding an endangered languages day tomorrow. 74 will play tapes and videos of native speakers and talk about 75own research and field trips all round the globe to investigate languages ranging 76Faroese (50,000 speakers) to Banawa, one of 300 languages spoken in the Amazon basin. There is no shortage 77 languages in the world: at the last count, 78 were about 6,000 in total —but 4% of them are spoken by 96% of the world’s population. Ten 79 , like English, Arabic and Hindi, are 80 by more than
100 million people each, so there is little need to worry 81 their future. On the other 82 , the minority languages with a slim chance of survival need help. A language only survives if 83 can be transmitted from parents to children. Every language is the storehouse of the culture of the people 84 speak it. As 85 as the last speaker is lost, the people’s cultural memory is gone forever.

Dear Mr Price,

I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours,

B) One possible version:
Different people have different opinions about whether it’s good or not for middle school students to study abroad. Here I’ll give my opinion.
It’s true that it is too expensive for most people to send their children abroad to study. Also, middle school students are not mature enough, and some teenagers lack the ability to care for themselves.
However, I think going abroad can give a person the capacity to live and think independently. As for myself, in the USA, I learned to drive a car, go to a bank by myself and cook — I could not have imagined doing these things before that. Moreover, the American education system is very flexible. The teaching style helps students develop their critical thinking skills and makes students more self-confident.
So I think there are more advantages than disadvantages for middle school students who study abroad.
