I waited anxiously, knowing that once I received it I would know how good a writer I really was.When the paper arrived at my classroom, I nearly knocked down five of my classmates to get to the first paper. With a school paper in my hands, I returned to my seat. About a month earlier, I had handed in one of what I believed to be my best stories. I named it The Symbol of Success. The head of the English Department at my school, Professor Cullen, had said that she would include some reviews of students' stories in the latest school paper. Professor Cullen was known for her rough criticism. Impressing her was very hard, but I wanted to be the first to do so.I sat at the edge of my seat as I read through the other story reviews. There wasn't one story that got more than three stars. I became calm and wasn't anxious to know my review. It was long after that when I heard someone shout out "Five stars? Seriously?" behind me. I turned around and saw the shocked expression on Gene's face, "Peter, your story gets five stars!" I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I turned my attention back to my story and saw the five stars at the end of the review that I had not read yet. I looked through the review written by Professor Cullen. She wrote that I had a gift for story writing.I was proud that I achieved what I thought was impossible. For so long I believed I wasn't so good as I thought I was and that my talent was not enough to cover up my lack of writing skills. But this review proved that I was truly a good writer and that there was a great future ahead of me in the field of fiction writing. The review and the five stars meant the world of me. Those five stars became the symbol of my success.（1）How did the writer get the school paper？A His teacher gave it to him first.B The publisher sent it to him first.C His friend hel ped him get the first one.D He rushed ahead to get the first one.（2）What can we learn about Professor Cullen？A She was very gentle to everyone.B She seldom praised her students.C She was ve ry cold to her students.D She was respected by her students.（3）We can learn from this text that Peter ______.A had thought his story was better than those of others'B was always anxious to know his reviewC didn't know he got five stars until Genetold him. D looked through a few stories that had got four stars.（4）What did Professor Cullen think of Peter's story?A She thought highly of it.B She thought it was just so-so.C She thought it was extremely bad.D She doubted if it was written by Peter.（5）Why did the review and the five stars mean the world to Peter?A Because they helped him learnwriting skills. B Because they made him happy for some time. C Because they helpedhim enter a key university. D Because they made him see his writing talent.4.It had been some time since Jack saw the old man who used to live next door. In the rush of his busy life, Jack had little time to think about the past and often had no time to spend with his family."Mr Belser died last night," one day, his mother told him on the phone. Memories flashed through his mind like an old film as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days. But in fact, it had been so long since Jack thought of him."Well, he didn't forget you. Every time I saw him, he'd recall the days you spent over 'his side of the fence'," his mum told him."He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important...Mum," Jack said. "I'll be there for the funeral（葬礼）." As busy as he was, he kept his word. He caught the next flight to his home town.The night before he had to return home, Jack and his mum looked at the old house next door one more time. Standing in the doorway, Jack stopped suddenly. "What's wrong, Jack?" his mum asked. "The box is gone," he said. "There used to be a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk. I must have asked him a thousand times what was inside. All he'd ever tell me was 'the thing I value most'."About two weeks later, Jack received a package（包裹）. On it, the name Mr Harold Belser caught his attention. He couldn't wait to open the package and a familiar small old gold box appeared in front of him. In it, there was a beautiful gold pocket watch with a note. Jack's hands shook as he read these words: "Jack, thanks for your time! Harold Belser.""The thing he valued most...was...my time." Jack held the watch for a few minutes, then cleared his appointments（预约）for the next two days. "Why?" Janet, his assistant asked. "I need some time to spend with my mother, wife and son," he said. "Oh, by the way, Janet...thanks for your time!"（1）From the passage, we know Mr Belser used to be Jack's ______.A grandfatherB fatherC neighbourD teacher（2）Jack was a man who ______.A was busy with workB was bored with lifeC didn't know how to return others' helpD didn't know how to get on well with others（3）The underlined word "familiar" probably means "______" in the passage.A strangeB fashionableC dirtyD well-known（4）According to the passage, we can infer（推断）______.A Mr Harold Belser's box was full of goldB Mr Harold Belser valued the time he used to spend with JackC Jack will spend lots of time doing business to make his family live a happy lifeD Jack will take his wife and son to his home town to live together with his mother（5）What does the writer want to tell us through the passage?A We should be nice to all the old people.B We should spend more time with our family.C We should work hard to make enough money.D We should thank the people who often help us.5.Sunshine Secondary School Science FairSUNSHINE SECONDARY SCHOOL PRESENTSStudent Science FairFor Students in Grades 7-9Dates: August 30-31Place: Sunshine Secondary School GymExplore Your World...Think like a ScientistThe Student Science Fair offers you a great way to put your science knowledge to use!

In fact, they say animals probably don't have love, anger, hate or other emotions either.Scientist Joseph LeDoux studies mice to find out whether animals have emotions. He found that mice feel at least one emotion-fear. He also found the part of the brain that seems to control fear in mice. In humans, that part of the brain controls fear and some other emotions.A number of scientists say animals have emotions. Some scientists who have studied such animals as dogs, cats, elephants and lions say those animals feel emotions.Scientist Joyce Poole studies elephants. She has written that pachyderms often show sadness when a relative dies. She says elephants have “deep emotions”．Jane Goodall studies chimpanzees（黑猩猩）. She says she has seen them playing andrunning after one another for fun. Goodall also says they feel sad sometimes. For example, an old chimpanzee died, and one of her sons, Flint, refused to eat food. Flint's brothers and sisters tried to get him to eat, but they failed. Three weeks later, Flint died. Goodall says Flint “died of sadness”．More recently, scientist Marc Bekoff watched an elk（麋鹿）run back and forth through the snow. Bekoff said it was feeling the “joy of life”. He said he couldn't prove that animals have feelings, because animals can't talk. But he said animals can communicate feelings in other ways. “I can't prove that an animal is feeling happy or sad, but I can guess how he or she is feeling through body language and facial expressions,”he said.（1）Which of the following emotions can a mouse feel according to the passage?A Anger.B Love.C Fear.D Happiness.（2）The underlined word “pachyderms” may refer to"______".A lionsB elephantsC chimpanzeesD cats（3）Marc Bekoff believes animals have feelings because he saw______.A a chimpanzee died of sadnessB a mouse that was afraidC an elephant felt sad for a dead relativeD an elk ran back and forth with joy（4）According to the passage, how do scientists find out whether or not animals have feelings?A By writing about how animals feel.B By asking animals directly how theyfeel. C By watching the body language and facial expressions of animals. D By watching how much animals eat at different time during the day.（5）What's the passage mainly about?A Joyce Poole's studies on how elephants feel.B Scientists who are arguing over some animals.C Jane Goodall's work with chimpanzees.D Scientists' ideas about whether or not animals have feelings.4.China won the wheelchair curling（冰壶）gold medal for its first-ever Winter Paralympic （残奥会的）medal at the 2018 PyeongChang Games here on Saturday, March 17, 2018. The Chinese team made an extra end to beat world champion Norway 6—5 in the final for its first-ever medal, and even a gold, in the history of the Winter Paralympic Games."We just cheered each other on all over the game and I tried to do my best. Maybe that's the reason why we could get the gold medal," said China's skip（队长）, Wang Haitao. "China, my country, is very important to me, so hearing the national anthem（国歌）was a very special moment. It's the first medal for China in the Winter Paralympic Games, and I think it is pretty big."Skipped by Wang, China opened its scoring with two points in the first end, together with third Chen Jianxin, second Liu Wei, lead Wang Meng.

But sometimes it is not so convenient when we can't find a recycling bin anywhere.A team of middle school students in the US noticed this problem, so they designed the Recycling Bin App（应用软件）. This app encourages people to recycle. It provides users with a map of local recycling centres. And it allows them to save places as favourites on it. This app also reminds users to recycle.The team is made up of nine students from STEM Centre Middle School. They came up with the idea as part of a school project for the Verizon Innovative App Challenge. The competition was designed by the Verizon Foundation to increase students' interests in science, technology, engineering and maths. It asks students to think of an app that could solve a problem in their school or city. The nine students came up with the idea for the Recycling Bin App when they saw a need for more recycling."We thought that this would really help a lot of people," said Jaden Hilkemann, 12."We worked together and it was great," Jacob Pfeifer, 12, added that they learned a lot when working together. "At first, we didn't agree on what we wanted it exactly to do, but in the end we all came to an agreement," he said.They kept their design easy so that anyone could use it. Now the free Recycling Bin App has been put into use in the Google Play（谷歌商店）for Android phones."I was so excited when it went up at the app store," said Seralyn Blake, 12.

Your life is not a sitcom. Your problems won't be solved in 30 or 45 minutes. In real life, people usually have to leave the coffee shops to look for jobs.RuleⅤ: Smoking does not make you look cool.

I told the cashier that if he got a drink, I'd just pay for it.In the end, we both ended up leaving the store, but he stood right outside holding the samosas and saying to me "Thank you!

Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what the real flying is!”One of the swans, a strong young male, took up the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show off his skills.

The threat（威胁）to coral reefs isn’t something that’s going to happen in 100 years from now. We’re losing them right now," said Julia Baum, who is a biologist at the University of Victoria, in British Columbia, Canada. “We’re losing them really quickly, much more quickly than I think any of us ever could have imagined.” Even if global warming were to stop right now, scientists predict that over 90 % of coral reefs will die by 2050.Actually, the planet’s health depends on the survival（生存）of coral reefs. They’re often described as underwater rainforests, because they’re ecosystems（生态系统）that provide living places for one in four of all sea animals. The reefs also serve as barriers（屏障）that protect coastlines from the full force of powerful storms. Coral is used in medical research to find out how to treat diseases like cancer, etc. Besides, the reefs attract tourists, the fishing industry and other businesses; bringing in billions of dollars of income.Coral is a kind of animal that has no backbone, and lives mostly in tropical（热带的）water. A rise of just 1℃ to 2℃can have effects on coral. It can survive in these higher temperatures only for a few months. Unluckily, the problem isn’t just global warming. The reefs have also been affected by po llution, coastal development and overfishing. Now scientists are doing something to make sure the rest survive. They hope that it’s not too late to save the reefs, and some are moving ahead on experiments to complete that goal. Ruth Gates, director of the Hawaii Institute of Marine Biology, for example, is trying to “train” coral to get used to rising temperatures to survivable levels of heat stress. She hopes that the coral will fix the experience in its memory so that it can accept similar stress in the future.（1）Where is Julia Baum from?A.England.B.America.C.Canada.D.Australia.（2）Why are coral reefs of great benefit?A.They protect water from being polluted.B.They are important to local economy.C.They are home to about half of marine species.D.They can be used to prevent and cure diseases.（3）Ruth Gates is mentioned in the last paragraph just in order to show ______.A.ways to develop reefs’ environmental adaptabilityB.the relationship between coral reefs and temperaturesC.scientists’ interest in doing research on coral reefsD.measures that are being taken to protect coral reefs（4）From the passage, we know ______.A.half of the world’s coral reefs have died in the last 100 yearsB.when the temperature rises 1°C to 2℃，coral reefs will disappearC.scientists are doing something to save the rest of coral reefsD.all the coral reefs will die by 2050（5）Where can we read this passage?A.In a sports magazine.B.In a science magazine.C.In an art magazine.D.In a history magazine.5.Central Hotel, New York Park4 stars870 7th Ave New York, NY, 10019, the United States of America, 800 491 9657Our lowest price is $129.Hotel sizeThis hotel has 761 rooms.This hotel has over 18 floors.Arriving/LeavingCheck-in time starts at 4: 00 p. m.Check-out time is at noon.Required at check-inCredit card deposit is required.Government-issued photo ID card is required.Minimum check-in age is 21.Children (11 y ears old and younger) stay free when taking the parent’s room or the guardian’s（监护人的）room, using existing（现存的）bedding（寝具）．PetsPets are not allowed.InternetWi-Fi in public areasValet parking（代客泊车）Smoke-free property（No smoking）（1）The lowest price of the hotel is ______.
