But do you know that the Hershey chocolate factory is more than one hundred years old? And do you know that the father of Hershey Chocolate, Milton Hershey, had many failures in business before he started his famous company? Milton Hershey grew up in Pennsylvania. Before he became interested in making chocolate,he worked as a printer for a small newspaper at first, and then decided that printing was not the right job for him.Then he worked at a candy factory in Lancaster. After working a few years there, he decided to open his own little candy business near Philadelphia. His first business failed because it was not making money. After that, he went to Denver to learn how to make caramels(焦糖). He took his new skills back to New York and worked selling candies on the street. But his second business also failed.Finally, Milton Hershey moved back to Pennsylvania where he grew up. He then experimented with all sorts of different candies and chocolate. By 1893 he was selling a million dollars worth of caramel candy each year. Since his chocolate-flavored(巧克力味的) caramels were the best selling, he decided to make chocolate himself.By experimenting, Milton Hershey discovered how to make delicious chocolate. The area where he lived had a large and easy supply of milk and sugar, which helped him succeed in his chocolate business. In 1903, Milton Hershey built a huge chocolate factory and a town to go with it.Today, the town of Hershey is still the home of the factory that Milton Hershey built. And if you ever visit, you can smell delicious chocolate smells just driving through the town.The factory is not so hard to find, Just travel down Cocoa Avenue until you get to East Chocolate Avenue. Turn right at the traffic lights and just follow your nose.36. Who is the father of Hershey Chocolate?37. Where did he grow up?38. Why did he go to Denver?39. Why did he decide to make chocolate himself?40.

But do you know that the Hershey chocolate factory is more than one hundred years old? And do you know that the father of Hershey Chocolate, Milton Hershey, had many failures in business before he started his famous company?Milton Hershey grew up in Pennsylvania. Before he became interested in making chocolate, he worked as a printer for a small newspaper at first, and then decided that printing was not the right job for him. Then he worked at a candy factory in Lancaster. After working a few years there,he decided to open his own little candy business near Philadelphia. His first business failed because it was not making money. After that, he went to Denver to learn how to make caramels(焦糖). He took his new skills back to New York and worked selling candies on the street. But his second business also failed.Finally, Milton Hershey moved back to Pennsylvania where he grew up. He then experimented with all sorts of different candies and chocolate. By 1893 he was selling a million dollars worth of caramel candy each year. Since his chocolate-flavored(巧克力味的) caramels were the best selling, he decided to make chocolate himself.By experimenting, Milton Hershey discovered how to make delicious chocolate. The area where he lived had a large and easy supply of milk and sugar, which helped him succeed in his chocolate business. In 1903, Milton Hershey built a huge chocolate factory and a town to go with it.Today, the town of Hershey is still the home of the factory that Milton Hershey built. And if you ever visit, you can smell delicious chocolate smells just driving through the town.The factory is not so hard to find, Just travel down Cocoa Avenue until you get to East Chocolate Avenue. Turn right at the traffic lights and just follow your nose.36. Who is the father of Hershey Chocolate?37. Where did he grow up?38. Why did he go to Denver?39. Why did he decide to make chocolate himself?40. Is the town of Hershey still the home of the factory that Milton Hershey built?【答案】36. Milton Hershey.。

It is part of a project to remeasure the current height of the world’s highest mountain.The team was made up of eight members. They set off from a camp at 8,300 meters at around 2:10 am. Nine hours later, they reached the summit successfully. Afterwards, the team worked there for 2.5 hours. They put up a survey marker, set up a global navigation satellite system (GNSS, 卫星导航系统) receiver, and used a radar(雷达)device to collect information.Since 1949, China has made six major scientific surveys of Mount Qomolangma, including two height measurements. In 1975, Chinese scientists reached the summit and measured the mountain for the first time at 8,848.13 meters. In 2005, another Chinese team measured it at 8,844.43 meters for the second time, without including snowcap(雪冠).Mount Qomolangma lies on the Nepal-China border. The two countries have long argued whether measurements of the mountain should include its snowcap. Nepal holds that Mount Qomolangma is four meters higher than the previous measurement by Chinese researchers. However, a huge earthquake struck Nepal in 2015. The snowcap may have changed as a result.It will take researchers two to three months to study the information. Advances in technology are believed to produce more exact results this time than 15 years ago.11. What time did the team arrive at the top of the Mount Qomolangma on May 27?A. About 11:10 am.B.

Chinese team remeasures the height of Mount QomolangmaC. Advances in technology can produce more exact result第二节根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I never planned to start it. In the beginning, I just wanted to find my purpose (意义) in life.I visited a children’s home. I read to them in the evening on ce a week. One night I watched them go to sleep. There was no changing clothes, no bedtime stories, no hugs from parents. Bedtime should not be like that. I decided to send some pajamas to the children’s home. I couldn’t change the children’s life, but I c ould give them warm, clean pajamas to sleep in.The next week I took some pajamas to the children’s home. One little girl didn’t take the pajamas from me. She asked me quietly, “What are these?”“They’re pajamas,” I said.“When do I wear them?”“When you go to bed at night.”She still didn’t understand.“What do you usually wear to bed?” I asked her.“My pants,” she said.I felt sad. A few weeks later, it seemed that a “raindrop” fell onto my head and the words PAJAMA PROGRAM spoke to me loud. Then I started to tell everyone to give me new pajamas for my birthday, Christmas ..., and I gave them to children in need. And then I found my purpose in life.41.

How did the writer feel after she heard the little girl’s words?A. Tired.B. Sad.C. Angry.45. What is the best title for the passage?A. What’s the purpose of lifeB. Welcome to Pajama ProgramC. The “raindrop” that changed my lifeCLet’s Learn More about Each OtherAre the lives of city kids the same as those in villages? In many ways, they are very different. But what are the differences?Hu Peng of Wuhan and four friends decided to find them out. Earlier this month, they lived for a week in Caidian, a village near Wuhan. Hu and his friends went door to door in Caidian and asked the kids there lots of questions. They wanted to learn more about village kids’ everyday lives, so they asked these questions like —Do your parents teach you how to do housework? How much money do you usually spend on dinner? What would you do if a thief came into your house? They also asked 150 city kids the same questions.What’s the Difference?Last week the team gave a report to their class. There are lots of differences between children’s lives in cities and those in villages. Th e biggest difference is independence. Hu’s team said that 60 percent of city kids couldn’t do much housework, but 90 percent of village kids could care for themselves.City kids told Hu they cared about school a lot, and they had no time for washing clothes or making their beds. Village kids said they helped their parents with housework a lot. They cooked, did some cleaning and fed animals. Hu’s team also found that village kids had less pocket money. Many never used computers. They played in rivers or on m ountains. Some didn’t really like to make new friends.Hu and his friends said their trip gave them more self-confidence because they were doing something by themselves. But it also made them a little worried because they saw they still had a lot to learn. “When we grow up, our parents can’t take care of us,” said Hu. “We have to learn to take care of ourselves.” Shen Guanquan, one of Hu’s friends, said, “When children learn to care for themselves, they learn to do lots of things.”46. How many city kids we nt to learn about village kids’ everyday lives?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.47. They found that most village kids ________.A. had no time for their studyB. didn’t care much about schoolC. helped their parents with housework a lot48. From the article, the biggest difference is ____ between city kids and village kids.A. independenceB. timeC. self-confidence49. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph means _________.A. their tripB. their reportC. city kids50. Hu Peng and his friends finished their report by _________.A. questioning village kids’ parentsB. questioning village kids and city kidsC. watching village kids’ everyday livesDYears ago, if a person had some problem in his life, he might go home and write in his diary. Now he might go onto the Internet and write about them in a blog.Differences between a blog and a diaryUsually, a person thinks of his diary as a book full of secrets. He does not want to share. But in the blog, anyone can read what he writes.I have a little sister, and sometimes I go onto the Internet to read her blog. She writes about swimming practice and not studying enough for her chemistry exam. When I was her age, I wrote about the same things, but only in my diary. Then, after I finished writing, I would put my diary in a secret place because I was worried that my sister might read it!Problems with bloggingThe biggest problem with blogging is that anyone can read what you write. If I was angry with a friend and wrote something bad about her in my diary, she would never know. However, if my sister wrote something bad about a friend, that friend might read her blog and get angry. Because we do not always think about things carefully before we write about our days. It is easy to hurt others’ feeling in a blog. So we have to be very careful about what we write.Keeping in touch with (保持联系)friendsBlogging has both good and bad points, of course. People choose to blog because they know that their friends will read what they write.If I was feeling sad one day and wrote in my diary “Nobody cares about me,” no one would know about it. However, if my sister wrote the same sentence in her blog, her best friends would quickly reply and tell her how much they like her. Blogs help people keep in touch with their friends and know what the people around them are doing.Blogs are a very good way to write about daily life, if people are careful aout what they write. However, I still like writing better in my diary!51. What’s the difference between blogs and diaries according to the passage?A. Blogs can be read by others while diaries only by writers themselves.B. Blogs are always good while diaries are sometimes bad for writers.C. Blogs are a good way to write about life while diaries about other things52. It is easy to hurt others’ feeling in blogs, because people .A. usually write about their daily life thereB. only write something bad about others thereC. don't always think carefully before writing there53. What is the biggest problem with blogging?A. Help people keep in touch with their friends.B. Someone may read your blog and get angry with you.C. Anyone may read what you write.54. We can learn from the passage that .A. the writer will choose to blog so that others can keep in touch with himB. the writer would rather keep diaries than write in a blogC. the writer doesn't like her sister's writing in a blog55. What’s the best title of this passage?A. Differences between a blog and a dairyB. Problems with bloggingC.

A. was having; were having B. was having; hadC. had; were having【答案】A 【解析】【详解】句意：昨天上午九点，我正在上英语课，而他们正在上体育课.考查过去进行时.根据时间状语at nine o'clock yesterday morning ，判断设空处的动作在过去某个时刻正在进行着，且动作在一段时间内持续进行，所以用过去进行时，过去进行时的构成是：主语+was/were+动词的现在分词；第一个空，主语是I ，所以be 动词用was ，第二个空，主语是they ，be 动词用were ，have an English class “上英语课”，have a PE。

I went to a busstop nearby.After a while, a bus came, but it did not go to my town. The bus driver was a young woman. She was kind and she told me which bus I should take. I waited there for about thirty minutes, but no bus came. At last a car came to me and a woman came out of the car. She was just the bus driver."When I reached the bus station, I heard that the bus to your town couldn't come, so I returned here. I just can't leave you here," she said. "Get in my car and I will take you back to your home.""It is a long way," I said."Come on, sir," she said. "Let's go."On the way she told me a story. A few days ago, there wasn't gas(汽油) in her car. An old man drove her up to a gas station and then back to her car.When we got to my home, I wanted to give her some money to thank her, but she didn't accept it.
