But they do not really know what they are talking about because they rarely get a chance to eat it. Most of the restaurants in large towns have foreign owners and serve foreign food When visitors are invited to eat in an English home, their hosts often feel they must offer them something foreign and exotic.Those of us who do know English food realize that at its best it can be really very good. On the other hand it is true to say that it is sometimes terrible. Part of the problem is that we are not really interested in food- we eat to live, we don’t live to eat. So we don’t generally spend the necessary time and effort needed to cook really good meals or ready prepared food which only, needs heating up before eating.You can find the best English food in the country away from large towns, where life is slower and people not in such a hurry. But more visitor come to London, they come because they are interested in shopping and sightseeing. They do not come because of food, so why should they complain about it?1.

Which of the following statements is right?A. People don’t want to spend time and effort in cookingB. People aren’t really interested in food because they think they live to eat, not eat to liveC. English food is neither good nor terribleD. People like to cook in a quick easy way4. Visitors can find the best English food ______.A. in the restaurants in large townsB. in the countryC. in English homesD. in the restaurants in towns5. The conclusion(结论) suggests ______.A. visitors have the rights to complain about EnglishB. as well as food, people come to shopping and sightseeingC. the criticism(批评) of English food is unfairD. it is impossible to find food English food in towns but it takes times to findBWe have just a small house, with only two bedrooms. You can think why we were worried when Aunt Clara wrote to say that she was coming to stay with her family for the weekend. Her family, I should say, has four boys, are under the age of twelve.I sent off a telegram at once, and explained in it that our house was too small. Aunt Clara called us up the next morning. “I forgot to explain,” she said in her sweetest voice. “The boys will be bringing a couple of tents.”Even so my wife couldn’t make free from fear. It was true that we had a large garden, but there was still the problem of feeding four growing boys. “A nd what if it rains?” she asked.But Saturday morning turned out to be bright and clear when I went to the station to meet Aunt Clara. I tried to squeeze(往车里塞) three of the boys, together with the luggage(行李), into the back of the car. The youngest sat in front, with Aunt Clara and me.“I didn’t see the tents among your luggage.”I turned over and said to David, the eldest boy.“The tents!” said Aunt Clara. “Oh! We left them in the luggage van(车厢).”6. Aunt Clara ______ after she received the telegram.A. wrote another letterB. phonedC. sent a telegramD. came round to see them7.

This is Elena Romano. I’m on board Explorer One with Luca Rossi. Luca and I were very lucky winners of a competition (竞赛) to become the first children to go into space. We’re travelling with two astronauts called Leo and Melita and I’m going to write about what happens. This will be an exciting adventure (冒险)!BLOG POST 2: DAY THREEI’ve had some questions from people on Earth. Everyone asked, “Are you afraid?” No, we aren’t. We feel very safe up here! Sally from Canada asked, “What’s the best thing about space?” That’s easy—looking out of the window at planet Earth. It’s so beautiful! Luca’s favorite thing is zero gravity (重力). Every few minutes he says, “________”BLOG POST 3: DAY FIVENikos in Athens wants to know the worst thing about space. The food, Nikos! There is no word to describe it. It’s just—eurrrghhhh! Luca says he wants to eat a bowl of his grandmother’s pasta. Me too, Luca, me too!BLOG POST 4: DAY SEVENSomething in the rocket is making a strange noise. Melita says everything is OK, but I saw her talking to Leo earlier. They both looked worried.BLOG POST 5:DAY EIGHT (morning)This morning Luca and I were looking out of the window when Leo appeared. “Bad news,” he said. “The engine (引擎) isn’t working very well.” Luca asked, “What’s going to happen?” Leo didn’t answer for a long, long time. Finally, he said, “I don’t know.”BLOG POST 6: DAY EIGHT (afternoon)This is getting frightening (可怕). The lights on the spaceship are turning on and off. Leo and Melita are going from place to place, fetching things to try to fix the engine. They’ve told us not to worry, but we don’t know what’s going to happen. Luca thinks we’ll be lost in space forever. Will we ever get home?BLOG POST 7: DAY EIGHT (evening)We’re nearly home! Leo and Melita asked us to fly the spaceship for them while they fixed (修理) the engine. Well, the spaceship’s computer flies the spaceship, but we had to watch the screen and make sure that the blue light was on and that we were moving from left to right on the screen! “You’ve been wonderful!” Melita said. “We’ve fixed the engine. You two can have a rest now while Leo and I take us home. Why don’t you have some space food while we slowly go back to Earth?”8. How many people were there in Explorer One?A．3. B．4. C．5. D．6.9. Which of the following is the most common question from people on Earth?A．Are you afraid? B．What’s the best thing about space?C．What’s going to happen?D．What’s the worst thing about space?10. What might Luca say in “________” in Paragraph 2?A．Come on, let’s fly!B．Wow, the Earth is so beautiful!C．I don’t like the food!D．I miss my family and friends!11. In which order did the following happen?a．Elena heard a strange noise from the rocket.b．Elena answered questions from people on Earth.c．Elena was told the engine wasn’t working very well.d．Elena helped watch the screen and make sure the blue light was on.e．Elena and Luca won a competition to become the first children to go into space.A．b-a-c-d-e B．e-d-b-a-c C．d-a-c-e-b D．e-b-a-c-dHow would you feel if someone decided to take away your park? Well that's what's happening in my community. There's a park that some people want to turn into a golf course (高尔夫球场). Let me tell you why I think it's a bad idea.First, a park is meant to be for the whole community. Not everyone likes golf, so not everyone will get to use the park. This isn't fair. A community park should have open spaces for everyone to use. Second, to make way for the golf course, lots of playground equipment (设施) will have to be moved or knocked down, which is a waste of time and money. It's also a waste of perfectly good equipment. The swings, for example, will probably just end up as litter.Third, what about giving young people something to do? Not all kids are crazy about golf. At the moment, the park has a skating place and a playground. These attract lots of kids from the community. If you turn the park into a golf course, these kids won't have anywhere to go and they won't have anything to do.This means that they will stay at home and turn on a video game rather than get some exercise. It also means that they might be out on the street causing trouble. Wouldn't it be better to give them something to do at the park?Finally, golf is expensive. Building a golf course and maintaining (维护)it costs a lot of money. Who is going to pay to maintain the golf course? What about those people who can't afford to join a golf club? That means that the golf course will only be available to people with lots of money.Turning our park into a golf course is a bad idea. I suggest we have a community meeting before plans go any further.12. Some people want to change the park into __________.A．a golf club B．a golf course C．a park D．a skating place 13. According to Paragraph 4, having nowhere to go will make some childrenA．go to get some exercise B．fall in love with golfC．play video games at home D．go to the street and make friends14. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?(P=Paragraph)A．B．C．D．15. What is the writer's purpose in writing this passage?A．To help carry out further plans.B．To make the park more beautiful.C．To encourage children to go skating.D．To stop the golf course from being built.Many people like taking a trip with no plans (计划). They think it’s very exciting and has more fun.16 Making vacation plans is very important.First, a vacation plan can “make sure that everything goes well”. If you visit a place but you don’t book a hotel, 17 .Second, you have many things to take with you for a vacation. You need to plan what things you have to buy and what things you need to put in bags.Third, making a vacation plan can help you save a lot of money. 18 If you surf the Internet before you go on a vacation, you may find some cheap things for your vacation.19 They can help you have more fun in your vacation.A. you may have no place to stay at nightB. Next time when you go on a vacation, try to write down some plans.C. But in fact, it is not that good.D. Nobody wants to spend more money that they want to.回答问题：Do you like taking a trip with plans or with no plans? Why or why not? (最多20字) 20I was bored.

I felt kind of relaxed as the last of them hurried out of the door. I turned around and saw David quietly standing by my desk.David was a small boy. He was always in dirty clothes. I didn’t know why his mother sent him to school without a coat, a scarf or gloves in the cold winter months. But something made David different. He was always ready to help. Every day, he stayed after school and cleaned the blackboard. We never talked much. He would just smile and ask what else he could do.“Why don’t you go home, David?” I asked.“I have something for you, Miss Green.” He said and took out a small box wrapped(包装) in old paper. Handing it to me, he said, “Open it.”I took the box from him, thanked him and slowly opened it. To my surprise, I saw nothing. I looked at David’s smiling face and back into the empty box and said, “The box is nice, but it’s empty.”“Oh, no, it isn’t,” said David. “It’s full of love. My mum told me before she died that love was something you couldn’t see or touch unless you knew it’s there… can you see it?”Tears came to my eyes as I looked at the proud dirty face. “Yes, David. I can see it. Thank you.”David and I became good friends after the Christmas, and I never forgot the meaning behind the little empty box on my desk.1. What do you think the writer is?A. A teacher.B. A student.C. A workerD. A farmer2. Why was David always in dirty clothes?A. Because he was very naughty.(淘气)B. Because no one looked after him.C. Because cleaning the blackboard made them dirty.D. Because his mother didn’t love him.3. What did David really want to give to the writer?A. An empty boxB. A jokeC. NothingD. The love4. Which is not right about the boy?A. He was a boy full of love.B. He liked helping others.C. He loved the writer.D. He always made troubles.5. “I never forgot the meaning behind the little empty box on my desk.” What was the meaning?A. Don’t judge(判断) a person by what he is wearing.B. Love is something that you can’t see.C. You’ll see the love if you know it is there.D. The friendship from David.(B)Once in a great battle（战争）, some British soldiers had to be awake so long and work so hard by day and night that at last some of them fell asleep in the middle of the fighting.In another battle a soldier fell asleep, though a great cannon(大炮) was firing all the time only six feet away from him. He slept two hours and didn’t hear a sound. Some soldiers did even stranger things. Sometimes they marched (行军) and slept same time.They all had the same trouble. They had worked too hard and slept two little; the brain was tired out and went to sleep even though it was told not to. Whenever we say we are sleepy, we mean that the brain needs to rest.The truth is that we spend more time in sleeping than in eating or playing or working, and we are right in this because the work the brain does is more important than that of any other part of the body, and sleep is the only thing that rests it.If you lie down and are not asleep, the brain is not really resting. If you dream, it is working a little; but it rests perfectly when you sleep perfectly. Though we can sleep even when we are not lying down, we get the best rest when we lie on a comfortable bed.Several things about the bed must be looked after. It should be flat. The pillow should not be high because the higher the head is raised, the harder the heart has to work to send blood into it, and we should give the heart as little work as possible at night.6. Why did some of British soldiers fell asleep in the middle of the fighting?A. Because they were too afraid.B. Because their brain needed rest.C. Because the fighting was hard.D. Because they were bored with the fighting.7. Which takes the most time in our daily life?A. SleepingB. WorkingC. PlayingD. Eating8. Which can make your brain relaxed most?A. Sleeping while walkingB. Having dreams while sleepingC. Lying down on the bed but not sleepD. Sleeping on a flat bed.9. What will happen if the pillow is high?A. You will have more dreams.B. You will sleep better.C. The heart will work harder.D. The heart will send less blood to the head.10. The best title for the passage is ______.A. BrainB. Soldiers and battlesC. SleepD. Bed(C)14-year-old Jenna spoke to a journalist about moving to Spain.“I’ve only been a Beckham fan for a few years but my dad always loved seeing him play at Manchester United(曼联). It took him ten hours to get there by car from Cornwall! Mum also follows Becks now. When she and I heard he was leaving to play in Spain, I said. ‘Let’s move to Spain!’ Dad agreed to come but my elder brother decided to stay in England. He’s still living in our house there.At first we didn’t know if Becks would play for Barcelona or Madrid, so my parents bought a place in Alicante. It’s only about three hours away from both cities. Our new home has three bedrooms and two bathrooms on one floor, and there’s a flat with another two bedrooms and bathrooms under that. There’s a pool, too.My friends in England will come and visit for my birthday in February. They think I’m a bit mad but they’re pleased for me too. It’s great to live in another country and learn a new language,but I’m finding Spanish quite difficult. I learned French in England and I keep mixing the two. It’ll be easier when I start at my new school.Becks is playing up really well in Spain, which keeps my dad happy! What I love most about him is that he’s a big family man. Being famous doesn’t change him. I’m having a great time in Spain and I’d really like to meet Becks one day.”11. Why did they move to Spain? Because _________.A. his father found a job in Spain.B.
