him a great deal but he never got angry with them and would only laugh.

D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)：(12分）
George Washington Carver was a scientist who helped farmers learn how to grow new crops and take better care of the soil. He studied many different plants and crops, but some of his favourites were peanuts, sweet potatoes and pecans（美洲山核桃）.
We don’t know exactly when George Washington Carver was born, but it was probably sometime in the 1860s. His mother was a slave（奴隶）owned by a farmer in Missouri（密苏里州）named Moses Carver. Young George Carver was fascinated by plants and flowers. He tended（照料）his own little garden. People began to see what a gift （天赋）he had for growing things. They called him the “the plant doctor” and asked him to help them grow their gardens better.
George longed to go to school. But in those days most schools only taught white children. So, George had to move to a town eight miles away to attend a school for black children. At that time, some people wrongly believed that a black child should not get any education.
His determination carried him all the way through college. In 1894, George Washington Carver graduated from Iowa State University. Soon he was invited to teach at Tuskegee Institute in Alabama, a college created especially for African-American students. It was just what Carver wanted: a place where he could study plants and agriculture, and help educate other black men and women.
Carver wanted to help farmers in the South. They had been raising cotton for many years，and the crops weren't growing strong and healthy any more. Carver said they needed to improve the soil by growing other crops, like peanuts. People laughed and called peanuts monkey food. Nobody ate peanuts then. One evening a group of important people came to dinner at Tuskegee. George Washington Carver planned the menu. What do you think he served? Peanut soup, peanut bread, creamed peanuts, peanut cookies and peanut ice cream for dessert(甜点)！
In his laboratory Carver learned how peanuts could be used to make shoe polish(鞋油)，ink, oil, shampoo(洗发精), soap(肥皂)，and shaving cream (剃须膏). Altogether, Carver discovered over three hundred ways to use the peanut. People started calling him “the Wizard (奇才）of Tuskegee”.
93.What did George Washington Carver help farmers do?
___________________________________________________________.
94.People don’t know the exact birthday of George Washington Carver, do they?
____________________________________________________________.
95.Why did he study at a school far away?
____________________________________________________________.
96.How could the farmers in the South improve their soil?
____________________________________________________________.
97.How many things could peanuts be used to make in Carver’s laboratory?

We can’t stop an earthquake, but we can do things to make sure that earthquakes don’t destroy whole cities. First, it is not a good idea to build houses along lines where two of the earth’s plates join together. Second, if you think there may be an earthquake, it is better to build houses on rocks , not on sand. Third, you must make the houses as strong as possible. Weak buildings will fall down in an earthquake, but strong ones may stay up.
Scientists are afraid that one day an even bigger earthquake will hit the part around San Francisco. They call it “The Big One”. However, people today are still building more houses. The population in and around San Francisco is now ten times more than it was in 1906. This means that if there is another earthquake, a great many houses and buildings will be destroyed.

Can you make some things that make you think of China. How many can you list? You may say tea, fireworks and so on, but don’t forget porcelain.
People always think porcelain is the symbol of China. Even the English word for porcelain is simply “ china”.
During the Song Dynasty, a town called Changnan (Jindezhen today), in Jiangxi, became known as the “Porcelain City”. At the time, people began to take porcelain to Europe along the Silk Road. The European people liked the fine pieces from the mysterious country in the East. They decided to name the works after their place of production--- Changnan, which
they pronounced “china”.
Chinese porcelain is known as fine art. People describe it as “white as jade(绿玉)，thin as paper, bright as a mirror and musical as a bell”.
People also draw beautiful pictures, mostly flowers, plants and birds on porcelain. The pictures show different wishes and meanings. For example, peach means long life and dragons and phoenixes may bring good luck.
Today, porcelain is still common in our daily life, you can see it everywhere. And when you are going to choose a perfect wedding gift, there’s nothing like a porcelain tea set.

Carl is studying food science at college and hopes to open up meat processing factory of his own one day. A. / ；a B. / ；the C. the ; a D. the ; the 本题考查冠词，science是不可数名词，用the表示特指是不可能的，后面的factory是一个可数名词，用a 表示泛指。 22.——May I help you? You seem to be having some problems. ——, thanks. I think I can manage. A. All right B. No problem C. It’all right D. There’s no way 很多学生会选择答案D ，我想这是有道理的。A. B. C都表示肯定，即接受帮助，只有D是拒绝。我没有去过国外，也很少见到老外，所以我不敢轻言答案是哪个，很多学生也应该是这样吧。我也不知道老外是否会经常用不定式的进行时进行交际，想必出卷教师一定是交际高手吧。【你说的对，我是遇到问题了，但是谢谢你的好意，我自己可以解决】 23. Interest is as to learning as the ability to understand , even more so. A. vital B. available C. specific D. Similar Be vital to 表示：对.....极端重要；something be available to somebody表示：某人可以得到某物，列句：cooperative medical service is available to all the members of the the mune. C答案specific 不能与to 搭配；D 答案similar to 表示：与.....相似。 本题可以把定于to understand 省掉，也可以把后面的even more so省掉或还原。 Interest is as to learning as the ability 这样可以确定B是错误的，D更是错误的。 Interest is even more than the ability to understand. 很佩服出卷人！ 原句：Interest is vital to learning 互联对于学习极端重要。 变化之一：Interest is as vital to learning as the ability to understand 互联对于学习极端重要，就像理解能力对于学习极端重要一样，互联甚至比理解能力更加重要。 24. I remembered the door before I left the office, but forgot to turn off the lights. A. locking B. to lock C. having locked D. to have locked
