They have to decide what to wear, what to eat and which activities to participate in. As a result they develop confidence and independence.[2]As self-respect develops from learning to be on their own, children continue to try new activities. Also it is possible that they will engage in what they are unfamiliar with. In school, children do not experience success in the sarne way. Camp can be a school without failure because just having fun makes them a success.[3]One of the greatest benefits of a camp experience is that children develop social skills. In a camp setting, a good counselor will make sure that every camper is included in the activity and that each child interacts with the others in a positive way. They learn to give and take, and they learn how to work and cooperate. Something as simple as clean-up, is not only there to get the cabin clean, but to promote a team atmosphere of working together which in turn results in friendship.[4]The obvious benefit of camp is that campers make long lasting friendships. Thesefriendships can often be unique and special because campers are living with each other and see the true personalities. Chi1dren learn to see others from a different viewpoint. Children tend to be accepted for who they are and do not have to be concerned about what they wear, what they are good at and how they look. This is because in a camp setting, respect and caring finally win out over materialistic objectives.[5]In a word, camp does give children fun, friends and fulfillment.81.

AWhy is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys?The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences. To the Egyptians, green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring, while for Muslims, it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China, children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils (灾祸).People’s choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies’ reactions (反应) toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically. People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomachaches.Red can cause a person’s blood pressure to rise and increase people’s appetites (食欲). Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. Similarly, many commercial websites will have a red “Buy Now” button because red is a color that easily catches a person’s eye.Blue is another calming color. Unlike red, blue can cause people to lose appetite. So if you want to eat less, some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room, think about the color carefully.51. Muslims regard green as a symbol of heaven mainly because of their .A. cultural valuesB. commercial purposesC. personal experiencesD. physical reactions to the color52. Why will many commercial websites have a red “Buy Now” button?A. To relax people physically.B. To increase people’s appetites.C. To encourage people to buy the goods.D. To cause a person’s blood pressure to rise.53. What color might help lose weight according to the text?A. RedB. Green.C. Blue.D. Purple.54. Which of the following would be the most proper title for the text?A. Colors and Human BeingsB. The Cultural Meaning of ColorC. Colors and Personal ExperiencesD. The Meaning and Function of ColorBHow to Study Smarter, Not HarderHere are some of our favorite study tips that will help any student study smarter, not harder: Recite As You StudyReciting—saying things out loud should first take place as you read through each paragraph or section. Test yourself. This will help you to understand as well as learn faster because it is more active than reading or listening. It will also help you to notice your mistakes and the topics you have trouble understanding.Take Fuller NotesNotes should be in your own words, brief and clear. They should be tidy and easy to read. Writing notes will help you better than just underlining as you read, since it forces you to rewrite ideas in your own words.Study the MiddleThe best time to review is soon after you’ve learned something. You are more likely to remember the material at the beginning and the end of the lesson, so make sure you focus on the middle when you review.Sleep On ItStudy before going to bed, unless you are very tired. It’s easier to remember material you’ve just learned after sleeping than after an equal period of daytime activity, because your brain continues to think even after you’ve fallen asleep.Combine Memory and UnderstandingThere are two ways to remember: by memorizing and by understanding. Multiplication tables, telephone numbers, and math formulas are better learned by rote. Ideas are best learned by understanding.The more ways you have to think about an idea, the more meaning it will have; the more meaningful the learning, the better you can remember it. Pay attention to similarities in ideas and concepts, and then try to understand how they fit in with things you already know. Never be satisfied with anything less than a completely clear understanding of what you are reading. If you are not able to follow the thought, go back to the place where you first got confused and try again.55. You can notice your mistakes by _______.A. saying things out aloudB. taking notesC. studying the middleD. sleeping on it56. When taking notes, you should _______ to better help you with reading.A. underline important notesB. write notes in your own wordsC. take down every detailD. write as quickly as possible57. The writer advises you to _______ as it is easier for you to remember material.A. study after a period of activityB. do some exercise after studyingC. study as soon as you get upD. study before going to sleep58. Which of the following is NOT helpful for your understanding?A. Thinking about an idea in different ways.B. Relating ideas and concepts with what you already know.C. Reading from the beginning to the end without stop.D. Going back to what first made you confused and start again.CAre you having too much salt? You might not think so, but people in China eat on average (平均) about 12 grams of salt each day, that is much higher than the 6 grams suggested by the World Health Organization. You could be eating too much without realizing it, because about 75% of the salt we eat is already in the food we buy, such as bread, sauces, soups and sausages.What problems can eating too much salt cause? To answer that question, first let’s take a look at what salt is.Salt is a chemical compound. It is made of sodium (钠) and chloride (氯化物). Salt is used to keep and flavor foods. A small amount of salt is important for good health because our bodies need sodium and chloride to work.But past studies have found that people who eat more salt than they need tend to have high blood pressure. Eating too much salt has also been connected with other conditions, such as heart and kidney(肾) problems.If you want to cut down on salt, the good news is, there are plenty of simple things to do. Here are some tips:*Cut back on high salt foods.Most foods contain some salt. But some foods such as cheese, bacon, pickles (泡菜), smoked fish and chips are almost always high in salt because of the way they are made. You can still enjoy them, but try to have these in smaller amounts, or eat them less often.*Choose reduced salt bread and breakfast cereals.Bread and breakfast cereals (谷物) are major source of salt in the diet, not that they’re necessarily high in salt but because we eat a lot of them. For these foods, there can be a really big difference between different types and brands. So next time you’re shopping, take the time to compare the salt levels on a few similar products. And always try to choose the ones lower in salt.*Avoid adding salt to cooking and at the table. Instead, you could use herbs and spices (香料) such as garlic (大蒜) and lemon juice to add flavor to meals.59. Many people in China don’t realize they are eating too much salt because ______.A. salty food tasted better than reduced salt foodB. they do not calculate the amount of salt they eatC. about 3/4 of the salt we eat is already in the food we buyD. few people experience problems from eating too much salt60. Which of the following statements about salt is FALSE?A. A small amount of salt is good for the health.B. Salt is used to keep or flavor food only in China.C. Too much salt may cause high blood pressure.D. Salt is a compound of sodium and chloride.61. For a healthier life, the author’s suggestion is to ________.A. cut back on food with limited (有限的) saltB. eat less heavily salted foodC. eat as much reduced salt bread as is wantedD. stop eating bread and breakfast cereals62. What is the purpose of the article?A. To warn people of food containing too much salt.B. To inform people of the right amount of salt taken each day.C. To advise people to be careful about the amount of salt they eat.D. To promote (促进) the right way to make reduced salt food.DWhen I was in seventh grade, I was a candy striper (护士助手) at a local hospital in my town.I volunteered about 30 to 40 hours a week during the summer.Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never has any visitors, and nobody seemed to care about his condition. I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he responded with only an occasional squeeze (紧握) of my hand. Mr. Gillespie was in a coma (昏迷).I left for a week for a vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Gillespie was gone. I didn’t have the courage to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might tell me he had died. So with many questions unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth-grade year.Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face. When I realized who it was, my eyes filled with tears. He was alive! I got up the nerve to ask him if he was Mr. Gillespie, and if he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an uncertain look on his face, he replied yes. I explained how I knew him, and that I had spent many hours talking to him in the hospital. His eyes welled up with tears, and he gave me the warmest hug I had ever received.He began to tell me how, as he lay there comatose(昏睡的), he could hear me talking to him and could feel me holding his hand the whole time. He thought it was an angel, who was there with him. Mr. Gillespie firmly believed that it was my voice and touch that had kept him alive. Then he told me about his life. We exchanged a hug, said our good-byes and went our separate ways.Although I haven’t seen him since, he fills my heart with joy every day. I know that I made a difference between his life and his death. As importantly, he has made a great difference in my life.I will never forget him and what he did for me: He made me an angel.63. When the author volunteered at a local hospital, she .A. mainly helped the nurses with their paper workB. made up her mind to become a nurse herself one dayC. spent most of her time taking care of a man in a comaD. became friends with Mr. Gillespie’s visitors64. The author didn’t ask where Mr. Gillespie had gone because .A. she knew for sure that he had recoveredB. she forgot all about him when she returned to the hospitalC. she had been concerned that he might stay in coma foreverD. she feared that he might have died65. Judging from the article, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The author continued her volunteer work in the hospital until eighth-grade.B. The author met Mr. Gillespie at a gas station several years later.C. Mr. Gillespie recognized the author’s voice the moment he met her.D. No one in the hospital believed that Mr. Gillespie would recover from his coma.66. Which of the following statements best summarizes the point of the story?A. Those with faith in themselves will succeed.B. If you spread happiness you will be happy yourself.C. Respect people and they will try hard to improve.D. Kindness is loving people more than they deserve.EHonesty comes in many forms. First there’s self-honesty. Is what people see the real article or do you appear through smoke and mirrors? I find that i f I try to be something I’m not, I feel unsure of myself and take out a part from my PBA (personal bank account). I love how singer Judy Garland put it, “Always be a first-class version of yourself, instead of a second-class version of somebody else.”Then there’s honesty in our actions. Are you honest a t school, with your parents, and with your boss? If you’ve ever been dishonest, I th ink we all have, try being honest, and notice how whole it makes you feel. Remember, you can’t do wrong and feel right. This story by Jeff is a good example of that: In my second year of study, there were three kids in my math class who didn’t do well. I was really good at it. I would charge them three dollars for each test that I helped them pass. I’d write on a little piece of paper al l the right answers, and hand them off.At first I felt like I was making money, kind of a nice job. I wasn’t thinking about how it could hurt all of us. After a while I realized I shouldn’t do that anymore, because I wasn’t really helping them. They we ren’t learning anything, and it would only get harder down the road. Cheating certainly wasn’t helping me.It takes courage to be honest when people all around you are getting away with cheating on tests, lying to their parents, and stealing at work. But, remember, every act of honesty is a deposit (储蓄) into your PBA and will build strength .67. The underlined part “appear through smoke and mirrors”in the first paragraph means “”.A. to be honestB. to be unrealC. to become clearD. to come from an imagined world68. Which of the following can best explain Judy Garland’s words?A. Be your true self rather than follow others.B. Don’t copy others or you can’t be the first class.C. Make efforts to be the first instead of the second.D. Don’t learn from others unless they’re excellent.69. What does the author expect to show by Jeff’s story?A. honesty can be of great help.B. A bad thing can be turned into a good one.C. Helping others cheat can do good to nobody.D. One should realize the wrong in his bad deeds.70. In the last paragraph the author mainly wants to express .A. one must be brave to be honestB. it’s difficult to be honest when others are notC. one should be honest when making a depositD. honesty in one’s actions can help him in the future阅读理解:51-54 ACCD 55-58 ABDC 59-62 CBBC 63-66 CDBB 67-70 BADD。

第一节:阅读理解(共20小题:每小题2分,满分40分)AAudrey Hepburn (奥黛丽·赫本) won an Academy Award as Best Actress for her first major American movie, Roman Holiday, which was released in 1953. But she is remembered as much for her aid work as for her acting.Born in Belgium in 1929, Audrey’s father was British and her mother was Dutch. Audrey was sent to live at a British school for part of her childhood. During World War II, she lived and studied in the Netherlands. Her mother thought it would be safe from Gerrnan attacks. Audrey studied dance as a teenager and during college when she returned to London after the war. But she realized she wasn’t going to be a ballerina(芭蕾舞女演员). So she began taking acting parts in stage shows. Later she began to get small parts in movies.But it was Audrey Hepburn’s move to America that brought her true fame. In 1951 she played the character “Gigi” in the Broadway play of the same name to great critica1 praise. Two years later, Roman Holiday made her a star at the age of 24.Audrey made more than 25 movies. Among her most popular roles was Holly Golightly in Breakftist at Tiff any’s in 1961. Three years later she played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.She was married two times and had one son by each husband. In 1989, the UN Chi1dren’s Fund named Audrey a goodwill ambassador. She travelled all over the world in support of UNICEF(联合国儿童基金会)projects. The UN agency said she was a tireless worker. She often gave 15 interviews a day to gain money and support for UNICEF projects.Audrey Hepburn often said her loyalty to UNICEF was the result of her experiences as a child during World War Ⅱ. She said she knew what it was like to be starving and to be saved by international aid. She was a goodwill ambassador until her death in 1993 from colon cancer.46. In Paragraph 1,“her aid work”means.A. winning an Academy Award as Best ActressB. taking acting parts in stage showsC. making her own moviesD.acting as a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF47. The reason why Audrey lived and studied in the Netherlands was that .A. she wanted to be a ballerinaB. her parents were from BritainC. it was safe thereD. the education there was excellent48.

Aside from trying to stop the graying of .America's farmers, her work is made tougher by a recent blog posting that put agriculture at No.1 on a list of "useless" college degrees. Top federal agriculture officials are talking about the posting, and it has the attention of agricultural organizations across the country.“There couldn't be anything that's more incorrect," Merrigan said. "We know that there aren't enough qualified graduates to fill the jobs that are out there in American agriculture.In addition, a growing world population that some experts predict will require 70% more food production by 2050, she said.“I truly believe we're at a golde n age of agriculture. Global demand is at an all-time record high, and global supplies are at all-time record lows," said Matt Rush, director of the Texas Farm Bureau. "Production costs are going to be valuable enough that younger people are going to have the opportunity to be involved in agriculture. "The Department of Agriculture has programs aimed at developing more farmers and at increasing interest in locally grown food. The National Young Farmers' Coalition has also been pushing for state and federal policy changes to make it easier for new farmers.Ryan Best, president of Future Fanners of America, has been living out of a suitcase, traveling the country and visiting with high school students about careers in agriculture. The 21 -year-old Best hopes his message-that this is a new time in agriculture-will motivate the next generation to turn around the statistics. Never before have we had the innovations ( 创新) in technology which have led to agriculture in this country being the most efficient it has e ver been,” he said. “there’s really a place for everybody to fit in.”51.

America will increase its food export54. What do the underlined words "to turn around the statistics" in the last paragraph mean?A. To re-analyze the result of the national census.B. To increase agricultural production.C. To bring down the average age of farmers.D. To invest more in agriculture.55.In which section of the newspaper can you most probably read the article?A. BusinessB. ScienceC. HealthD. EntertainmentCMichael, Rae, Jequita, Alice, Sarah and Phyllis have at least one thing in common: They all love animals so much that they’re driven to volunteer regularly at the Romulus Animal Shelter.The six Romulus-area residents give as much time as they can to perform various tasks at the shelter, help make life more comfortable for the dogs and cats that stay there and do their best to find permanent homes for the stray(流浪)pets.The shelter, at 12300 Wayne Road, opened in June 2011 and operates on money raised in the community. To date, bingos and other fundraising activities have brought in more than $177.000,according to community leader William Wadsworth, but a tight budget requires the efforts of volunteers to make ends meet.“Without their help, this building would not be an outstanding place,”Wadsworth said.“Their time and devotion is beyond what I ever expected. And I thank them all.”The volunteers work at the direction of two animal control officers, Annie Hall and Kim Ratcliff, who spend much of their day patrolling(巡逻)the city and housing stray dogs and cats. The two, both with 32 years of experience, count on the public to be the eyes and cares of the shelter. They are also responsible for addressing complaints and taking care of the shelter.That’s where the volunteers come in. They take photos of the animals and post them on Facebook and other websites for adoption. They clean cages, play with the animals, feed and bathe the pets and take the dogs for walks. They pick up supplies and even clean the restrooms.“We couldn’t do it without them,” said Ratcliff. “They come in and go right to work. We depend on them a lot. They help run the place,” added Hall.56.What is the purpose of this text?A. To raise enough money for the stray pets.B. To advertise for the Romulus Animal Shelter.C. To praise the volunteers for caring animals.D. To house more stray dogs and cats in the city.57..Why does the Animal Shelter need the efforts of volunteers?A. Because it has just opened for l year.B. Because it has too many stray pets.C. Because there are only 2 animal control officers.D. Because it has a very tight budget.58.Many volunteers came to help in the shelter mainly because_____________.A. they are living near the shelterB. they have rich experience in caring animalsC. they love animals very muchD. they can raise some money for the shelter59.Which of the following isn’t the volunteers’ work?A. Patrolling the city.B. Feeding the pets.C. Cleaning the cages.D. Picking up supplies.60.We can learn from the text that_________.A. all the stray pets will live in the shelter foreverB. most stray pets were picked up by the control officersC. the animals with most beautiful pictures on the websites will be adoptedD. the volunteers’ work was highly praised by the control officersDIf your preschoolers turn up their noses at carrots or celery, a small reward like a sticker(贴画) for taking even a taste may help get them to eat previously disliked foods, a UK study said.Though it might seem obvious that a reward could encourage young children to eat their vegetables, the idea is actually controversial, researchers wrote in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. That’s because some studies have shown that rewards can backfire and cause children to lose interest in foods they already liked, said Jane Wardle, a researcher at University College London who worked on the study. Verbal praise, such as “Brilliant! You’re a great vegetable taster”, did not work as well.The study found that when parents gave their small children a sticker each time they took a “tiny taste” of a disliked vegetable, it gradually changed their attitudes. The children were also willing to eat more of the vegetables—either carrots, celery, cucumber, red pepper, cabbage or sugar snap peas—in laboratory taste tests, the study said.Researchers randomly assigned (分派) 173 families to one of these groups. In one, parents used stickers to reward their children each time they took a tiny sample of a disliked vegetable. A second group of parents used verbal praise. The third group, where Parents used no special vegetable-promoting methods, served as a “control”.Parents in the reward groups offered their children a taste of the “target” vegetable every day for 12 days. Soon after, children in the sticker group were giving higher ratings to the vegetables—and were willing to eat more in the research lab, going from an average of 5 grams at the start to about 10 grams after the 12-day experience. The turnaround(转机) also seemed to last, with preschoolers in the sticker group still willing to eat more of the once-disliked vegetable three months later.Why didn’t the verbal praise work? Wardle said the parents’ words may haveseemed “insincere” to their children.61. The purpose of writing the passage is .A. to introduce a practical method of making children eat vegetablesB. to show the procedure of an experiment on children’s dietC. to explain why children hate to eat vegetablesD. to present a proper way of verbal praise to parents62. The underlined word “backfire” in Paragraph 2probably means “_______”.A. shoot from behind the backB. make a fire in the backyardC. produce an unexpected resultD. achieve what was planned63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Most children are born to dislike carrots or celery.B. It remains a question whether rewarding is a good way to get children to eat vegetables.C. Oral praise works quite well in encouraging children to eat vegetables.D. Children in the sticker group will never lose interest in eating vegetables.64. How did the researchers get their conclusion from the experiment?A. By comparison.B. By asking questions.C. By giving examples.D. By discussion.65. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Children like rewards, not verbal praise.B. Parents should praise their children in a sincere tone.C. Children are difficult to inspire.D. Parents should give up verbal praise.第二节:对话填空(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

AI grew up in San Pedro. My Dad was a big fisherman, and he loved the sea. He had his own boat, but it was hard making a living on the sea. He worked hard and would stay out until he caught enough to feed the family.When the weather was bad he would drive me to school in his old truck, which was older than he was. As he would drive toward the school, I would shrink down into the seat hoping to disappear. Half the time, he would slam to a stop and the old truck would belch (喷出) a cloud of smoke. He would pull right up in front, and it seemed like everybody would be standing around and watching. Then he would lean over and give me a big kiss on the cheek and tell me to be a good boy.

They knew they could not compete against business from the U.S. The United States is much larger and had many more resources than any Western European countries.Some European people realized that the European nations need to join together to help each other. If they could forget their language differences and the differences in customs, they mightbecome strong competition against other countries.In 1958, six of the European countries --- Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, Germany and Italy got together and decided to cooperate. They called their group the European Economic Community, or the Common Market. These countries agreed to join their resources together.Within a few years, the European Economic Community had worked so well that its members were more prosperous than many other European nations. Soon, other nations began to realize the advantage of the Common Market. Today the Common Market includes most of the important countries in Western Europe. It is helping Western Europe to again take its place as a leader among the industrial nations of the world.53.

ALast night was the last game for my eight-year-old son's soccer team. It was the final quarter. The score was two to one, my son's team in the lead. Parents surrounded the playground, offering encouragement.With less than ten seconds remaining, the ball suddenly rolled in front of my son's teammate, Mickey O’ Donnel. With shouts of "Kick it!" echoing(回响)across the playground, Mickey turned around and gave it everything he had. All around me the crowd erupted(爆发). O'Donnel had scored!Then there was silence. Mickey had scored all right, but in the wrong goal, ending the game in a tie. For a moment there was a total hush. You see, Mickey has Down syndrome (唐氏综合症) and for him there is no such thing as a wrong goal. All goals were celebrated by a joyous hug from Mickey. He had even been known to hug the opposing players when they scored.The silence was finally broken when Mickey, his face filled with joy, hugged my son tightly and shouted, "I scored! I scored. Everybody won! Everybody won!" For a moment I held my breath, not sure how my son would react. I need not have worried. I watched, through tears, as my son threw up his hand in the classic high-five(致礼)salute and started chanting, "Way to go Mickey! Way to go Mickey!" Within moments both teams surrounded Mickey, joining in the chant and congratulating him on his goal. Mike happily and everyone sent their wishes to him.Later that night, when my daughter asked who had won, I smiled as I replied, "It was a tie. Everybody won."56.Which is the most correct description of the author’s too? He was/had.A.brave B.honest C.sympathy D.pride57.The underlined word “hush” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “.”A.stare B.silence C.congratulation D.noise58.After Mike scored, the author help his breath, because .A.Mike cheated everyone B.everyone would accept the factC.the score was out of his expectation D.his son might get angry with Mike 59.We can infer from the passage that Mike .A.was cared about by his teammatesB.was hared by his own teamC.was corbarrassed when he realized the fastD.was warm-hearted and played soccer for both teamsBHere are two letters in WORKWORRIES, a column(栏)in a newspaper:60.From Amoretto's letter, we know that he __________.A .has been working for a long timeB .is likely a green handC .expects to change his jobD .is quite satisfied with the job.61.How can a man arrange his work-life balance according to Ariel?A .By taking a training course .B .By asking people for advice .C .By comparing with others .D .Through his own work experience62.All of the following are advised byArial EXCEPT__________.A .understanding the terms before signingB .working hard and efficientlyC .getting a better positionD .doing the job at least a year63.What does Ariel advise to do in the reply?A .Take the job offered .B .Give up and find a new job .C .Depend on your feeling .D .Choose jobs with great careCWhen asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves, many put friends ahead of homes, jobs, cloth and cars.A true friendship carries-a-long history of experience that determines who we are and keeps us connected. It is a treasure we should protect. Unfortunately, the better friends you are, the more proba bly you’ll have disagreements. And the result can be what you don’t want an end to the relationship.The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended First, don’t let your pride get in your way. Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in theopen .second, apologize when you’re wrong –even if you’ve been wronged. Over the course of a friendship, even the best people make mistakes. Sometimes, it may be best if the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes. When you apologize, give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong. Third, see things from your friend’s point of view. And finally, accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyle change. Making friends can sometimes seem easy. The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the natural ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships . My suggestion: Consider friendship an honor and a gift , and worth the effort to treasure and nurture .64.What would be the best title for the text?A.Easy Ways to Make FriendsB.Ups and Downs in FriendshipC.How to Mend a Troubled FriendshipD.How to Take the Lead in Making Friends65.The “wronged person” underlined in the text refers to a person .A.who has been mistaken for anotherB.who has been blamed unfairlyC.who has treated friends badlyD.who has admitted his mistakes66.According to the text a friendship can last long only if .A.we have much in commonB.we know our friends’ mistakesC.we treat our disagreements wiselyD.we have know one another for long67.What should we do if we follow the author’s second suggestion?A.Stick to our own prints of viewB.Avoid making mistakesC.Make an apology firstD.Change our lifestylesDBut every year, technological advancements allow of more and more Internet users. Most broadband connections today run over existing cable TV and telephone lines although these technologies aren’t available everywhere.Some companies have delivered the Internet over standard power lines. Advancements in cheaper, more efficient fiber optics cables (光纤电缆) promise to bring extremely fast Internet connections to more users.Still, the “last mile” problem remains hard to deal with. There will always be somewhere that doesn’t have an affo rdable broadband connection. But someday that might not matter. If the rapid progress in cell phone technology is any indication (迹象), it may not be too long before an Internet connection simply follows you wherever you go.68.The underlined part “a catch”(in Paragraph 2) probably means “_____”.A.a rare challenge B.a desirable planC.an efficient device D.a hidden problem69.What can we know from the third paragraph?A.Internet connection has not been popular in most cities.B.Internet service providers care about rural(农村的)customers.C.Computer is popular in developing countries.D.It is hard to bring Internet access to users in remote areas.70.Paragraph 4 mainly tells us that technological advancements _____.A.make TV and telephone available everywhereB.bring great change to people’s everyday lifeC.make it possible for more people to use the InternetD.bring faster Internet connections to users71.What may eventually settle the “last mile” problem?A.The broadband connect ion’s getting faster.B.More and more Internet users.C.more and more Internet connections.D.The rapid progress in cell phone technology.EDevelop and follow a sleep routine. It's best if you go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day. Try not to vary this too much on weekends. Your body likes routine.Take extra care to make healthy choices. You may be tempted to reach for unhealthy foods or nicotine to stay awake or alcohol to try to sleep. But ultimately these choices are more harmful than helpful.If you have tried all these things and are still having problems getting enough quality sleep during the day, talk to your doctor or a sleep specialist. Sometimes medications(药物治疗)may be helpful and safe. In other cases, there may be an underlying sleep disorder that needs to be addressed.72.The purpose of the text is to .A.persuade workers to have a god sleep.B.advise night workers to keep healthyC.encourage workers to do day workD.help night workers to sleep well73.What does the author recomusend?A.A suitable account of alcohol to help sleep.B.A regular life on weekday’s and weekends.C.A dark room without phoebes to sleep in.D.A break for sleeping anytime during the day.74.On which condition should a person turn to a sleep specialist for help?A.If he suffers from a sleep disorder for the first time.B.If a good sleep environment is greatly needed for him.C.If he falls to get quality sleep through his own efforts.D.If he has the problem of bailing to sleep in the daytime.75.We can learn from the test that .A.night workers need a long time to fall asleepB.constant breaks at work help to improve performanceC.it is difficult to create a good sleep environmentD.night work requires people to adjust their body clocks。

AA few days ago,I went to school with lots of books,hoping to get a locker (锁柜).Suddenly,it started raining heavily. I hurried to pay for my locker,but I was disappointed when they informed me they only accepted cash. I was $7.00 short,which meant I had to carry the books back home. It would be an exhausting (令人筋疲力尽的) two-hour journey back home with all those books. An elderly gentleman nearby noticed my problem. He asked how much cash I needed. When I told him I was $7 short,he quickly took out the money from his wallet.“You don’t have to pay me back,”he said. I was speechless;I didn’t know whether to take the money or come back with the books the next day. A young student who was working there noticed my hesitation.“He’s really nice,” said the student.“I was starving this morning and he bought breakfast for me. He always helps people in different ways.”The next day,I went to him and thanked him for trusting me and lending me the money. He said he forgot about it and didn’t expect I would give it back. “I’m very happy,”he said,“not because I’m getting my money back,but because this is the right way to go—whatever you get from this world,give it back as much as you possibly can. Spread kindness around the world with the smallest things you can do.”Later,I found out he wasn’t involved with any charity organizations. He has been performing these types of acts for years. Earlier,someone had done something incredibly kind for him and he has been spreading the kindness ever since.He taught me a very important lesson in life—we come to this world with nothing and we will leave with nothing. Whatever we own,it will become somebody else’s and whatever w e leave,it will become somebody else’s.【小题1】When the old gentleman offered the money,the writer was________. A.touched B.hesitant C.amazed D.embarrassed【小题2】From Paragraph 3 we learn that________.A.the gentleman worked in the schoolB.the gentleman was kind but forgetfulC.the gentleman refused to take back the moneyD.the gentleman thought it right to give back to society【小题3】Why had the gentleman been doing acts of kindness?A.He wanted to join the charity organizations.B.He managed a lot of ot her people’s money.C.He had received help from others before.D.He thought money was of little importance.【答案】【解析】【小题3】细节理解题。

每小题1分,满分20分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AWill it matter if you don't take your breakfast? Recently a test was given in the United States. Those tested included people of different ages, from 12 to 83. During the experiment, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Special tests were set up to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten a certain kind of breakfast. The results show that if a person eats a proper breakfast, he or she will work with better effect than if he or she has no breakfast. This fact appears to be especially true if a person works with his brains. If a student eats fruit, eggs, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen with more attention to class. Opposite to what many people believe, if you don't eat breakfast, you will not lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch, and end up gaining weight instead of losing. You will probably lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.56. During the test, those who were tested were given ________.A. no breakfast at allB. very rich breakfastC. little food for breakfastD. different breakfast or none57. The results of the test show that ________.A. breakfast has great effect on work and studiesB. breakfast has little to do with a person s workC. a person will work better if he has a simple breakfastD. those working with brains should have much for breakfast58. The passage mentions that many people believe that if you don't eat breakfast, you will _________.A. lose weightB. not lose weightC. be healthierD. gain a lot of weight59. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. Poor breakfasts affect those who work with brains.B. Morning diet may cause one to get fatter.C. Reducing lunch and supper is of less value in weight losing.D. Eating less in lunch and supper may help to lose weight.60. According to the passage, if a student does not eat breakfast, ___________.A. he will fall illB. he will fail to listen to his teacherC. he will not make progress in his studyD. his mind will work more slowlyBWhen Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish.Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported (出口) to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the country’s second most important export.Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use. Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors.Education is very important to the Costa Ricans. Almost every village has a school and education is a must for children between seven and fourteen years of age. Boys and girls go to separate (单独的) schools. Classes begin in March and end in November. The other three months of the year are harvest time and the children have to help their parents to pick coffee beans.61. What’s the main idea of th e first paragraph?A. How Columbus found Costa Rica.B. How Costa Rica got its name.C. What the Costa Ricans wore.D. What language the Costa Ricans spoke.62. The Costa Ricans may NOT paint their houses ______.A. pink and redB. grey and blackC. blue and greenD. yellow and orange63. In Costa Rica, boys and girls between seven and fourteen ______.A. must go to schoolB. study in the same schoolC. do not have to go to school at allD. can choose to stop schooling at any time64. From December to February, school children in Costa Rica ______.A. have lessons every dayB. have their examinationsC. help their parents pick coffee beansD. help their parents decorate their houses65. This passage is mainly about ______.A. Christopher ColumbusB. Costa RicaC. some products from Costa RicaD. the education of Costa RicaCMost children now chat daily either online or through their mobile phones. They are connecting to a huge number of other children all over the world. Some are shy “in real life” but are confident to communicate with others online; others find support from people of their own age onrelationship issues, or problems at home.Sometimes the online world, just like the real world, can introduce problems, such as bullying or arguments. Going online is great fun, but there are also a few people who use the Internet for offensive (冒犯性的) or illegal aims. Children must be made aware of both the good things and the dangers.To keep children safe your management must cover the family computer. Just as you decide which TV pro-grams are suitable, you need to do the same for the websites and chat rooms your children visit. Remind your children that online friends are still strangers. Re-minding them of the risks will keep them alert (警惕).Computer studies are part of schoolwork now, so it’s likely that your children may know more than you do. We get left behind when it comes to the latest gad-gets and the interactive areas of websites, like chat rooms and message boards, which are especially strange. The language of chat is strange to many parents, too. Chatters love to use abbreviations (缩写) such as: atb — all the best, bbfn — bye bye for now, cul8er — see you later, gr8 — great, Idk —I don’t know, imbl — it must be love, kit —keep in touch, paw — parents are watching, lol — laugh out loud, xlnt —excellent!It seems like another language, and it is!66. The passage is written for ______.A. childrenB. parentsC. teachersD. net bar owners67. Which of the following will the author probably agree with?A. The Internet is no good for children.B. The chat language is strange to adults.C. Children shouldn’t chat so much online.D. The Internet is a good place for children.68. The purpose of writing this passage is to advise ______.A. people not to use the net language in real lifeB. children not to meet online friends freelyC. teachers to have students study on computersD. parents to protect their children from online dangers69. In order to keep children safe online, you’d better ______.A. choose suitable websites and chat rooms for themB. teach them to use correct net wordsC. surf the Internet together with themD. forbid them to use the Internet70. If you stand beside him when your son is chatting about somethingsecret online, he may use ______.A. bbfnB. lolC. pawD. cul8erDA young woman carrying a three-year-old child got on a bus. Theconductor hurried to give her a warm welcome and then kindly asked the other passengers to make more room for the woman and her child. On seeing this, people began to talk. "You know this conductor used to be very rude.

"That's right," another lady said, "I wish a newspaper reporter were here so that more people could learn from this conductor.”Just then a gentleman who looked like a teacher turned to the conductor and said, "Excuse me, but can I know your name, please?

AFor the most part, you are probably only exposed to the music that is played on your favorite radio stations and TV shows, music Web sites, or the music that your friends and family members enjoy. While you probably know a lot about your favorite type of music, it can be a rewarding experience to enlarge your horizons(眼界), discovering artists and types of music that you’re not familiar with. Who knows, you might discover you like certain types of music you never even considered.Have you ever wondered about the history and influences of your favorite types of music ? For example, did you know that rock ‘n’ roll originated(起源)from the blues, and that the blues began as a form of musical expression for African Americans during slavery?Did you know that most hip-hop is heavily influenced by early rhythm blues and jazz ?There are many fun ways to learn about different musical styles and their historical roots. For example, if you like hip-hop, listen to some of your favorite CDs and take note of the samples the performers used to create the songs. There is a possibility that the artist used parts of older songs to create the music. You can go to the library or online to learn more about the artists and listen to more of their music by checking out CDs from the library or downloading songs online for a small fee.You can learn so much about culture and history just by paying attention to different types of music and what is being expressed in the songs. There are so many different styles of music to learn about, and you owe it to yourself to make an effort to listen to and learn about them.51.The main topic of this passage is _____.A. creating musicB. learning about musicC. enjoying your favorite musicD. performing music52.What music did African Americans use to express their feelings of being slaves ?A. Rock ‘n’ roll.B. Hip-hopC. The blues.D. Jazz. 53.How can you learn about culture and history through music ?A. By caring about what is being expressed in music.B. By creating music from older songs yourself.C. By writing down the names of the music.D. By keeping a record of fees after downloading songs online.54.By saying the underlined sentence in the last paragraph, the author probably means that _____.A. you should return something to musicB. you should try harder to learn about musicC. you should borrow music CDs from othersD. you should buy music CDs yourselfBFor better eyesight, doctors advise limiting the hours of screen time and encourage having enough eye resting time.However, another study shows that sitting in front of computer or TV screens for long hours is not the only reason for myopia (近视). An Australian research team studied young children in Sydney and Singapore to find the reasons for myopia.The research team found that the prevalence(流行) of myopia among children in Sydney was lower than children in Singapore, even though they spent more time in front of computer and TV screens. The major finding is that children in Sydney spend longer hours on outdoor activities than those in Singapore.Indoor and outdoor sports activities both make the eyes focus on more distant objects, which prevents the eyes from changing shape. But outdoor activities may better help avoid myopia than indoor sports activities.Jane Gwiazda, who does research in sight problems, says: “Natural light is good for eye growth. And extra vitamin D from the sun might contribute to eye growth.”Many doctors suggest that every child gets its first eye test done when he/she is about two and half years old, and even if his/her sight seems perfect.It is necessary for myopic children to wear glasses to prevent headaches, trouble reading or injuries. It is also important that schools invite doctors to test their students’ eyes.If that is not possible, school teachers should at least encourage parents and children to have regular eye examinations and wear glasses. And parents should remember not only to limit the total screen time for their children, but also to encourage them to spend time outdoors. 55.What’s the aim of the study by the Australian research team ?A. To find the ways to treat myopia.B. To find the reasons for myopia.C. To prove the bad effects of myopia.D. To prove the prevalence of myopia. 56.Why are there fewer children with myopia in Sydney than in Singapore ?A. Because Sydney children watch less TV.B. Because Sydney children have more eye resting time.C. Because Sydney children do more outdoor sports.D. Because Sydney children use computers less.57.What conclusion can we draw from the passage ?A. Sydney children don’t study hard.B. Singapore children do few exercises.C. Room light does harm to children’s eyes.D. Outdoor activities do more good to eyes. 58.Which of the following statements is TRUE ?A. Children should have eye tests as soon as they reach school age.B. Doing outdoor activities with no glasses is good for myopia children.C. Children should limit their time in the sun in order to protect their eyes.D. Focusing on distant objects can help the eyes keep their original shape.CWhy did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side.Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried abouthow the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road.“Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,” the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill.“Eco-passages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are paths both over and under roads. “These eco-passages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents,” sa id Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society.But do animals actually use the eco-passages? The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an eco-passage that went under a highway. This showed that the lions used the passage.Builders of eco-passages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals like salamanders(火蜥蜴) and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses.The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around. You might see an animal overpass!59.The writer uses the example of “ocelots” to show that _______.A. wild animals have become more dangerousB. the driving condition has improved greatlyC. the measure for protecting wildlife fails to workD. an increasing number of animals are killed in road accidents60.From the story, we know an eco-passage is ________.A. an underground path for carsB. a path for animals to cross the roadC. a bridge for animals to get over a riverD. a fence built for the safety of the area 61.When the writer says that “animals seem to be catching on”(Para. 6), he means __.A. animals begin to learn to use eco-passagesB. animals begin to realize the dangers on the roadC. animals are crossing the road in groupsD. animals are increasing in number62.The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because _____.A. wild animals may attack carsB. wild animals may jam the roadC. they may see wild animals on eco-passagesD. they may see wild animals in the parkDIt had been some time since Jack had seen the old man. College, career, and life itself got in the way. In fact, Jack moved all the time across the country to achieve his dreams. There, in the rush of his busy life, Jack had little time to think about the past and often no time to spend with his wife and son. He was working on his future, and nothing could stop him.Over the phone, his mother told him, “Mr. Belser died last night. The funeral(葬礼) is Wednesday.” Memories flashed through his mind like an old newsreel as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days.“Jack, did you he a r me?”“Oh, sorry, Mom. Yes, I heard you. It’s been so long since I thought of him. I’m sorry, but I honestly thought he died years ago,” Jack said.“Well, he didn’t forget you. Every time I saw him, he’d ask how you were doing. He’d reminisce (回忆) about the many days you spent over ‘his side of the fence’ as he put it,” Mom told him.You know, Jack, after your father died, Mr. Belser stepped in to make sure you had a man’s influence in your life,” she said.“He’s the one who taught me carpentry (木工). I wouldn’t be in this business if it weren’t for him. He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important… Mom, I’ll be there for the funeral,” Jack said.Busy as he was, he kept his word. Jack caught the next flight to his hometown. Mr. Belser’s funeral was small and uneventful (平凡的). He had no children of his own, and most of his relatives had passed away.The night before he had to return home, Jack and his Mom stopped by to see the old house next door one more time, which was exactly as he remembered. Every step held memories. Every picture, every piece of furniture… Jack stopped suddenly.“What’s wrong, Jack?” his Mom asked.“The box is gone,” he said.“What box?” Mom asked.“There was a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk. I must hav e asked him a thousand times what was inside. All he’d ever tell me was ‘the thing I value most’,” Jack said.It was gone. Everything about the house was exactly how Jack remembered it, except the box. He figured someone from the Belser family had taken it.“Now, I’ll never know what was so valuable to him,” Jack said sadly.Returning to his office the next day, he found a package on his desk. The return address caught his attention.“Mr. Harold Belser” it read.Jack tore open the package. There inside was the gold box and an envelope. Jack’s hands shook as he read the note inside.“Upon my death, please forward this box and its contents to Jack Bennett. It’s the thing I valued most in my life.” A small key was taped to the letter. His heart racing, and tear s filling his eyes, Jack carefully unlocked the box. There inside he found a beautiful gold pocket watch. Running his fingers slowly over the fine cover, he opened it.Inside he found these words carved: “Jack, t hanks for your time! Harold Belser.”“Oh, My God! This is the thing he valued most…”Jack held the watch for a few minutes, then called his assistant and put off his appointments to the next week. “Why?” his assistant asked.“I need some time to spend with my son,” he said.63.Why did Jack think Mr. Belser died years ago?A. College and career prevented him from remembering Mr. Bleser.B. Jack was too busy realizing his dreams to think about Mr. Belser.C. Jack was too busy with his business and family to think about Mr. Belser.D. His present busy life washed away his childhood memories.64.Jack’s mother told him on the phone about Mr. Belser EXCEPT that ______.A. Mr. Belser had asked for Jack’s mailing addressB. Mr. Belser’s funeral would take place on WednesdayC. Mr. Belser often asked how Jack was doingD. Mr. Belser had pleasant memories of their time together65.Why did Jack say he needed some time to spend with his son?A. He was very tired of his work and wanted to have a good rest.B. He had promised to spare more time to stay with his son.C. He came to realize the importance of the time with his family.D. He had missed his son and his family for days.66.Which of the following is the most suitable title for this passage?A. What He V alued MostB. The Good Old TimesC. An Old Gold WatchD. The Lost Childhood DaysEAs computers become all the more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly depending on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more wide-spread among university students. Almost all their homework and essays are typed on a computer.All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.It's faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that's why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking stock in computers increasingly, problems appear."When I'm writing with a pen, I find I often can't remember how to write a character, though I feel I’m familiar with it.""I'm not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper."Many students don't feel this is something to worry about. Now that it's more convenient and quick to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei , the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital said "Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic(审美的) value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only have their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer's emotion(情绪). Through one'shandwriting, people can get to know one's thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的)and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.67.The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because______.A. they are usually asked to e-mail their homework and essaysB. they find it not easy to remember how to write a characterC. they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and convenientlyD. computers have become popular in China.68.Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE of the advantages of handwriting?A. Handwriting can impress people well and build up one’s self-confidence.B. The writer’s thinking and personality are shown in his or her handwriting.C. Handwriting contains the writer's emotion.D. Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic value.69.The underlined expression “taking stock in”(Paragraph 4) proba bly means_____.A. getting bored withB. getting curious aboutC. becoming crazy aboutD. getting dependent on70.We can infer from the passage that_______.A. more and more students will give up writing on a computerB. more and more students will pay attention to handwritingC. writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one dayD. the typing article better expresses one’s emotion and quality阅读理解:51-54 BCAB 55-58 BCDD 59-62 DBAC 63-66 BACA 67-70 CADB。

AMost people cannot live to 100. Those that do can hardly walk, let alone take part in any activities. A few people, however, take part in dangerous activities even though they are more than 100 years old---They keep going and going! There’s a great great grandmother who likes challenging herself although she is 101 years old this year.Mary Hardison believes that people should always be cheerful and more importantly, take on all kinds of adventures(冒险)while they physically still can. So, instead of celebrating her 101st birthday with a boring party, she decided to go paragliding(高崖跳伞运动)----- an idea she got from her 75-year-old son who recently took it up as a hobby.So on her birthday, cheered on by her big family, she tied herself up together with expert instructor(专业指导者)Kevin Hintze, and jumped fearlessly from the skies near her home in Ogden, Utah. And, it was not just a simple jump either. According to Kevin Hintze, the grandmother encouraged him to turn around, as they made their way down.This is not the first time that Mary has done something “wild” and “crazy”.

San Diego Zoo will attract the largest number of childrenB. there may be some stories about the island of AtlantisC. tickets during the holidays are more expensiveD. the film Master and Commander can be seen in Maritime Museum of San DiegoCAmericans use many expressions with the word “dog”. People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well. They take their dogs for walks, let them play outside and give them good food and medical care. However, dogs without owners to care for lead a different kind of life. The expression “to lead a dog’s life” describes a person who has an unhappy life.Some people say we live in a dog-eat-dog world. That means many people are competing for the same things, like good jobs. They say that to be successful, a person has to work like a dog. This means they have to work very, very hard. Such hard work can make people dog-tired. And, the situation would be even worse if they became sick as a dog.Still, people say every dog has its day. This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. To be successful, people often have to learn new skills. Yet, some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks. They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.People who are unkind or uncaring can be described as meaner than a junkyard dog. Junkyard dogs live in places where people throw away things they do not want. Mean dogs are often used to guard this property. They bark or attack people who try to enter the property. However, sometimes a person who appears to be mean and threatening is really not so bad. We say his bark is worse than his bite.Doghouse provide shelter but they can be cold and lonely in the winter. Husbands and wives use this doghouse when they are angry at each other. For example, a woman might get angry at her husband for coming home late or forgetting their wedding anniversary. She might tell him that he is in the doghouse and treats him badly. However, the husband may decide that it is best to leave things alone and not create more problems. He might decide to let sleeping dogs lie.Dog expressions are also used to describe the weather. The dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year. A rainstorm may cool the weather. But we do not want it to rain too hard. We do not want it to rain cats and dogs.66. The underlined expression “work like a dog” in Paragraph 2 means ________.A. become successfulB. have an unhappy lifeC. compete for the same thingsD. work very, very hard67. If a man comes home late, his wife might say angrily, “_____________.”A. it will rain cats and dogsB. every dog has its dayC. you lead a dog’s lifeD. you are in the doghouse68. “Leave things untouched” has the same meaning as “__________”.A. lead a dog’s lifeB. teach an old dog new tricksC. let sleeping dogs lieD. make people dog-tired69.

What does the text mainly talk about?A. Expressions in American culture.B. Some expressions with the word dogC. A good way to learn English wellD. Dog’s influence on American cultureDWinter weather has returned to northern areas of the world. In much of the United States, winter means the return of snow.Snow is a form of frozen water. It contains many groups of very small ice particles (颗粒)called snow crystals(晶体). These crystals grow from water particles in cold clouds. They usually grow around a piece of dust. All snow crystals have six sides, but they grow in different shapes. The shape depends mainly on the temperature and water levels in the air. The shape of a snow crystal may change from one form to another as the crystal passes through levels of air with different temperatures. Snow contains much less water than rain. About 75 cm of snow has as much water as 2.5cm of rain.Generally, the color of snow and ice appears white. This is because the light we see from the sun is white. Most natural materials take in some sunlight. However, when light travels from air to snow, some light is sent back, or reflected(反射). Snow crystals have many surfaces to reflect sunlight. It is this light that gives snow its white color.Much of the water we use comes from snow. Melting(融化)snow gives water to rivers and crops. Snowfall helps to protect plants and some wild animals from the cold. Fresh snow is made largely of air which is kept among the snow crystals. Because the air has trouble moving, the movement of heat is greatly reduced. However, snow is responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people in the United States every year. Many people die in traffic accidents on roads that are covered with snow or ice.71. In the center of a snow crystal there is ______.A. airB. waterC. dustD. sunlight72. If fifteen centimeters of snow completely melts, the height of water will be ______.A. 0.5 centimeterB. 1centimeterC. 1.5 centimetersD. 15 centimeters73.

What is the last paragraph of the text mainly about?A. Snow can give water to rivers and crops.B. Snow can help crops keep warm in winter.C. Snow has both advantages and disadvantages.D. Snow is the cause of the deaths of many people阅读:BDCAA DACBB DDCBB CACDC。
