One day, he went out for a walk. In England, people drive on the left, but in Russia they drive on the right. Jack forgot about this. While he was crossing a busy street, a car almost knocked him down. Jack stood there for a few seconds, full of fear. Then he came to himself and said," Where am I?" An old man selling maps ran to Jack at once and said, "Maps of the city, sir.” 14.T 15. T 16. F 17. F 18. T 19. TIV.

The average temperature there is about minus 25 degrees Celsius all the year. But now scientists from all over the world come to study the ice to learn more about the Earth's history. Some of them live on Antarctica for part of the year. But they don't usually stay there for more than six months because there is light for half a year and darkness for the other half.The weather in Antarctica is usually fine, no wind at all. The strong winds are usually only in some parts of it. It is also interesting to learn that it isn't very wet there. There is very little snow or rain. It snows on the ice in winter, but at other times Antarctica is dry, just like the Sahara Desert.In winter, the sea around Antarctica freezes for thousands of kilometers. But the Earth is getting warmer. So in the future, the Antarctic sea may be covered with less ice. When that happens, our weather will never be the same again.20.never 21. 25/twenty-five 22.scientists 23. interesting24. freezes 25.coveredPart II Vocabulary and Grammar (35分)V.

Or when your best friend does not wait for you after school? If you do, you need to control(控制) your feelings and stop getting angry so easily. Getting angry easily can make you lose friends.Gary Egeberg, an American high school teacher, wrote My Feelings are Just Like Wild Animals to help you control your feelings. It tells teens how to stay cool when bad things happento them. The book says that getting angry only makes problems worse. It can not make them better. "Getting angry is not a natural way to act", the book says. It is just a bad habit, like smoking. The book says you can control your anger easily, and all you have to do is to tell yourself not to be angry. When a baby falls over, it cries only when people are watching it. Like a baby, you can only get angry if you are sure it is the right thing to do.The book gives many suggestions to help you if you get angry easily. Here are the top three.①Keep a record. Every time you get angry, write down why you are angry. Look at it later and you will see you get angry too easily.①Ask your friends to stop talking to you when you get angry. This will teach you not to be angry.①Do something different. When you get angry, walk away from the problem and go somewhere else. Try to laugh!( )36.The writer wants to tell us ____.A. not to get angry easilyB. to work hard at schoolC. to do more exercisesD. to help each other( )37.
