Her voice not only moved audiences, but also shookAmerican society.During her time, American society was still segregated(种族隔离的).As an African-American, Holidaylived a hard life. But her life experience also inspired her singing.Holiday worked with white bands in the 1930s,which was ground-breaking(开拓性的)at that time. Holiday taught Americans to question their segregated society.Virginia Woolf (1882-1941)Virginia Woolf was one of the most important writers of the 20th century. Her stream-of-consciousness (意识流)writing style deeply influenced modern writing.Stream-of-consciousness focuses on the"flow”of thoughts and inner feelings of a particular character. Thiswas very different from most writing at the time.Woolf once wrote a short novel called The Mark on the Wall(<墙上的斑点>).The novel focuses entirelyon what the main character is thinking about after seeing a mark on a wall.1．Why did Margaret Thatcher get the nickname “The Iron Lady”?A．Because she was strong enough to live a long life.B．Because she was the first female prime minister in Britain.C．Because she used tough policies to restore the country.D．Because she liked to use the things made of iron.2．How old was Tu Y ouyou when she received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine?A．35 B．41 C．75 D．853．Which one of the following quotations(录)was probably from Billie Holiday!A．"He that comes first to the hill, may sit where he will."B．"If I'm going to sing like someone else, then I don't need to sing at all."C．"Every scientist dreams of doing something that can help the world."D．"Do not all you can; spend not all you have, believe not all you hear; and tell not all you know."4．What does the underlined word"This"refer to?A．Woolf's writing style B．modern writingC．the character's thoughts D．the character's inner feelings5．The passage is aboutA．female Nobel Prize winnersB．an introduction of “The Iron Lady"C．the greatest icons of the 20th centuryD．women who made a difference in the 20th centuryB14、Sometimes we wish that we could have more time. The good news is that this year will be longer than the previous! Although don’t get excited just yet, because if you blink (眨眼), you may just miss it. That’s because 2015 will be one second longer than 2014 －also known as a leap second (闰秒). And surprisingly, they are pretty common. But why do we need them?Over the centuries, Earth has been slowing down. This means that we must keep changing our clocks to keep in stepwi th Earth’s time. We’ve all heard of leap years. Our calendars hold 365 days in a year. Yet Earth takes slightly longer to orbit the sun. So we save this time and every 4 years we have an extra day in February.As for the leap seconds, the International Earth Rotation Service (IERS) manages the global time, known as the atomic time(原子钟时间). This is the timekeeping that’s used for every single country.To keep up with Earth’s time, they add a second every now and then. They’ve been doing this since 1972. And this year will be the 26th second they’ve added!It’ll be added just before 8:00 a.m. on July 1 Beijing time. So you will see 7:59:60 on July 1.Although adding a second sounds harmless, it can have negative effects. In 2012 when a leap second was added, it caused problems for companies like so cial networking sites Reddit and LinkedIn. As they weren’t prepared for the change, it caused their computers to record errors.1．Why does a leap second have to be added in some years?A．Because this year is shorter than the previous one. B．Because we need to have more time.C．Because the Earth is slowing down. D．Because it can help make a leap year.2．In a leap year, there is an extra day in_____.A．January B．February C．March D．December3．In order to keep up with Earth’s time, how many seconds have been added until last year?A．43 B．42 C．26 D．254．What’s the negative effect of adding a leap second?A．It makes the day longer than the previous one. B．It causes some recording errors for companies.C．It makes people stay up late. D．It does harm to people’s health.C15、Imagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have noidea where you are. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device (装置) which uses satellites (卫星) to find the user’sposition(位置). It can find your position to within 20 me－ters. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are.GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. Y ou can hold it in your hand, or put in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates (计算) its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mo－bile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate. There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.1．According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people ______.A．can’t be lost in a new cityB．can’t find their way in different countriesC．can learn about the culture of an unknown placeD．can spend the least time getting to another place2．We can learn from the passage that ______.A．there are three parts to the GPSB．a GPS can’t be put into a watchC．a GPS can help you start your carD．the GPS are becoming more and more expensive3．The underlined word accurate!in paragraph 4 means“____” i n Chinese.A．准确的B．恰当的C．端正的D．直接的4．What can we infer from the passage?A．All GPS devices have electronic maps.B．People in many countries will use the GPS for free.C．The receiver of the GPS contacts at least five of the satellites.D．The GPS will become more and more common in everyday life.5．The passage is mainly about______.A．the history of GPS B．the introduction of GPSC．the shape of GPS D．the three parts of GPSD16、Bill Fuller, the postman, whistled(吹口哨) cheerfully as he pushed his bike up the hill towards Mrs Dunley’s house. His work for the day was almost finished. His bag, usually quite heavy when he set out on his road, was empty now except for the letter that he had to deliver(递送) to Mrs Dunley. She lived over a mile from that village so that, when Bill had a letter for her, he always finished his day’s work much later. He did not mind this, however, because she never failed to ask him in for a cup of tea.When Bill entered the gate of Mrs Dunley’s house, he was surprised not to find her working in the garden. She usually spent most afternoons there when the weather was fine. Bill went straight round to the back of the house, thinking that she might be in the kitchen. The door was locked and the curtains were drawn. He returned to the front of the house and knocked hard on the door. There was no answer. Bill thought that this was very strange because he knew that Mrs Dunley hardly left the house.Just then, he noticed that her bottle of milk, which was delivered early in the morning, was still on the doorstep. This worried him. If Mrs Dunley had not taken in her milk, perhaps she was ill. Bill walked round the house until he found an open window. He squeezed(挤) through it. Then he went into the hall. There he almost fell over Mrs Dunley, who was lying at the foot of the stairs unconscious(昏迷不醒的). Realizing that there was little he could do for her, Bill rushed out of the house, stopped a passing car and told the driver to telephone for an ambulance(救护车) as soon as he got to the village.1．What did Mrs Dunley usually do with Bill?A．She usually asked him to have a cup of tea.B．She usually had a talk with him.C．She usually asked him to dinner.D．She usually asked him to buy some tea.2．The thing that especially worried Bill was ________.A．finding the back door locked and the curtains drawnB．seeing the bottle of milk on the doorstepC．not getting any answer when he knocked on the doorD．not finding Mrs Dunley in the garden3．How did Bill get help for Mrs Dunley?A．He stopped a passing car and took her to the hospital.B．He himself telephoned for an ambulance.C．He stopped a car and asked the driver to telephone for an ambulance.D．He asked the driver to take her to the hospital.E17、If you ever go to the US and eat at a restaurant, there’s a very important difference you should know about. US people have a custom to give money to waiters and waitresses as a tip for their work.But why is this? Shouldn’t waiters get paid enough by their bosses? Well, many waiters and waitresses get pa id below the US minimum wage (最低工资) and work for tips to make up for that. According to the American travel website TripAdvisor, some states pay their servers (服务员) only $2.13 (about 14 yuan) per hour.While no one makes you tip, if you are at a sit-down restaurant, it is usually expected that you tip your waiter 15 to 20 percent of what your bill is.It’s not just for waiters either. Hotel maids, hairdressers and taxi drivers also usually work for tips. But it is much more expected to tip waiters.The US h asn’t always had this tipping culture. In fact, people were mostly against it until the Prohibition Era (禁酒令时代) in the 1920s. The government said no one could sell alcohol (酒). Then, restaurants had trouble making enough money. So they started to ask people to tip their waiters.This tipping culture has lasted through the years, but most people don’t like it. Some think restaurant bosses use it as anexcuse to not pay their workers well. There isn’t much action being taken to make a change yet. So for now, be sure to tip your waiter when in the US.1．If a server works eight hours a day, he can get from his boss.A．$2.13 B．$17.04 C．￥142．Besides waiters and waitresses, also works for tips in the US.A．customers B．taxi drivers C．restaurant bosses3．When the restaurants couldn’t sell alcohol,.A．they were bankrupt (破产的) and closed downB．the bosses still made much moneyC．they started to ask people to tip4．We can learn from the passage that .A．the waiters and waitresses aren’t well paid in the USB．the custom of giving tips only appears in the USC．all Americans are glad to tip their waiters5．About American’s tipping culture, foreign visitors think.A．they need to fight for their own rightsB．they should “do as the Romans do”C．they can leave it aloneF18、He was 11 years old and went fishing every chance he got at his family’s small house on an island in the middle of a New Hampshire lake.On the day before the bass(鲈鱼)season opened, he and his father were fishing early in the evening, catching sunfish and bass with worms. Before long, when his pole doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully worked the fish alongside the bank and he very successfully lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.The boy and his father looked at the handsome fish, the fish jumped up and down in the moonlight. The father looked at his watch. It was 10 P.M. -- two hours before the season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy. “You will have to put it back, my son," he said. “I have never seen such a big fish before.” cried the boy. “There will be other fish,” said his father. “The boy looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight. He looked again at his father. Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he caught the fish, the boy could tell by his father’s voice that the decision was no t be changed. He slowly worked the hookout of the lip of the huge bass and lowered it into the black water.That was 34 years ago. And he has never again caught such a beautiful fish as the one he landed that night long ago. But he does see the fish again and again --every time he comes up against a question of ethics(伦理). For, as his father taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.We would if we were taught to put the fish back when we were young. For we would have learned the truth. The decision to do right lives fresh in our memory. It is a story we will proudly tell our friends and grandchildren. 1．When did the story happen?A．Early morning B．Late night C．Late afternoon D．In the bass season2．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．The fish was too huge to lift easily from the waterB．The fish went back to the water because of the writer’s carelessnessC．The writer and his father usually went fishing together on an islandD．As time goes by, the writer can still remember the thing3．After reading this passage, we can infer _______.A．fishing is a good hobby not only for teens but also adultsB．the bass is not allowed to catch in New Hampshire lakeC．the boy and his father are examples of the practice of ethicsD．it’s important to balance fishing the bass and protect it4．might be the best title of this passage.A．Benefits of fishing B．An unforgettable experienceC．Catch of a life time D．An adventure of a handsome bassⅤ.书面表达19、假如你是Henry，你的笔友李华在英语学习中遇到了困难．请根据提示，用英语给他写一封邮件，就如何应对这些英语学习上的困难，谈谈你的做法和想法．词数80词左右．注意事项：1．必须包含上面所提示的信息，可适当发挥，开头已给出，不计入总词数；2．意思清楚，表达通顺，行文连贯，书写规范；3．请勿在文中使用真实的姓名、校名及提示信息以外的地名．参考词汇：imitate模仿audio音频Dear Li Hua，I am glad that you are interested in learning English．But I'm sorry to hear that you have some difficulties in learningEnglish._______________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________There are many ways to learn English，but you should have your own way．Yours，Henry参考答案Ⅰ. 单项选择1、D2、A3、B4、C5、C6、C7、B8、B9、B10、DⅡ. 完形填空11、1．A2．B3．B4．C5．C6．B7．AⅢ. 语法填空12、1．how 2．development 3．environmental 4．kinds / forms 5．throwing 6．reduce 7．hardly 8．creative 9．herself 10．inspiration Ⅳ. 阅读理解13、1．C2．D3．B4．A5．D14、1．C2．B3．D4．B15、1．A2．A3．A4．D5．B16、1．A2．B3．C17、1．B2．B3．C4．A5．B18、1．B2．B3．C4．CⅤ.书面表达19、Dear Li Hua，I am glad that you are interested in learning English．But I'm sorry to hear that you have some difficulties in learning English．For example，it's hard for you to remember words．You aren't good at listening and often make mistakes in grammar．You read slowly．I find some ways to improve my English．Maybe they can help you．I copy down new words and keep reading them whenever I'm free．I read after audios and imitate the tones．I often read grammar books，borrow English newspapers and magazines and read them after class．Listen carefully and take notes in class．Practice makes perfect．So it's important to practice every day．Use English as much as possible．There are many ways to learn English，but you should have your own way．Yours，Henry。

Braincomputer interface(BCI) technology could help people with disabilities send commands to machines.Recently, two scientists, Jose Millan and Michele Tavella from the Federal Polytehnic School in Lausanne, Switzerland, show a small robotic wheelchair directed by a person’s thoughts.In the laboratory, Tavella operated the wheelchair just by thinking about moving his left or right hand. He could even talk as he watched the vehicle and guided it with his thoughts.“Our brain has billions of body cells(细胞). These send signals through the spinal cord(脊髓) to the body part to give us the ability to move. But spinal cord injuries(脊柱受伤) or other conditions can prevent these weak electrical signals from reaching the body part.” Tavella says. “Our system allows disabled people to communicate with outer world and also to control machines.”The scientists designed a special cap for the user. This head cover picks up the signals from the scalp(头皮) and sends them to a computer. The computer finds meanings of the signals and commands the wheelchair with an engine. The wheelchair also has two cameras that tell objects in its path. They help the computer react to commands from the brain. Prof. Millan , the team leader, says scientists keep improving the computer software that finds meanings of brain signals and turns them into simple commands.” The practical possibilities that BCI technology offers to disabled peoplecan be grouped in two kinds: communication, and controlling objects. One example is this wheelchair.”He says his team has set two goals. One is testing with real patients, so as to prove that this is a technology they can get advantages from. And the other is sure that they can use the technology for long.1．BCI is a technology that can________.A．help to make computer systems more modernB．connect the human brain with computersC．help the disabled to be healthierD．control a person’s thoughts2．Which of the following shows the path of the signals described in Paragraph 5?A．scalp→computer→cap→wheelchairB．computer→cap→scalp→wheelchairC．scalp→cap→computer→wheelchairD．cap→computer→scalp→wheelchair3．The team will test with real patients to_________.A．make money from themB．prove the technology useful to themC．make them live longerD．learn about their physical condition4．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A．Switzerland, the BCI research CenterB．New Findings About How the Human Brain WorksC．BCI Could Mean More Freedom for the DisabledD．Robotic Vehicles Could Help to Cure Brain SicknessB14、John was driving through a small rural(乡下的)town, feeling quite hungry.

It was not damaged, but it was stuck. Captain Nemo,however, was not worried. He looked at his charts. “ In four days, ther e will be a high tide（潮汐）that will lift the Nautilus off the reef,” he told me. “We will wait for it.”Ned wanted to go onto the island and catch some animals to eat. To our surprise, Captain Nemo agreed to put us on land for a short time. We were allowed to use the dinghy. Captain Nemo did not come with us. We went alone. Ned was very excited.“We are going to eat meat!” he said. Half an hour of rowing brought us to the island. It was wonderful to walk on land again. Ned found some coconuts and drank the milk at once. Then we walked into the forest and found some breadfruit trees. Ned cooked some of the breadfruit, which tasted just like real bread. We found fruits like bananas and mangoes. Ned still wanted some meat, but it was time to go back to the Nautilus. We brought the food that we had found back with us.We returned to the island the next day and hunted birds. Ned shot two pigeons, a wild pig and several smaller animals like rabbits. We sat near the boat to cook and eat them, but we were suddenly attacked by about 100 savages. They followed us into the water as we rowed away, but they could not catch us. Back on the Nautilus, I found Captain Nemo who was playing the piano and told him about the savages. “You should not be surprised that there are sav ages on land, Dr. Aronnax,” he said. “They may try to come onto the Nautilus,” I said. “We have nothing to fear,” he replied.He turned back to his piano.

She was clever and fun, and got on well with everyone. It was no accident that Fiona was so popular. From an early age she had tried hard to be kind and friendly to everyone. She invited the whole class to her birthday party, and from time to time she would give presents to everybody. She was such a busy girl, with so many friends. However, she felt very lucky, no other girl had so many friends at school and in the neighborhood.But everything changed on National Friendship Day. On that day, at school, everyone was having a great time, drawing, painting, giving gifts. They had to make three presents to give to their three best friends.However, when all the presents had been made and shared out among classmates, Fiona was the only one who had not received a present! She felt terrible, and spent hours crying. How could it be possible? So much she had done to make so many friends, and in the end no one saw her as their best friend? Everyone came and tried to comfort her for a while. But each one only stayed for a short time before leaving.When she got home that night and asked her mother where she could find true friends.“Fiona, my dear,” answered her mother, “you cannot buy friends with a smile or a few good words. If you really want true friends, you will have to give them real time and affection (情感). For a true friend you must always be there for them, in good times and bad”.“But I want to be everybody’s friend! I need to share my time among everyone!” Fiona argued.“My dear, you’re a lovely girl,” said her mother, “but you can’t be a close friend to everybody. There just isn’t enough time for everyone, so it’s only possible to have a few true friends.

Usually the male butterfly is more brightly colored than the female. The females have bigger and heavier bodies, since they carry the eggs. The gay colors of the male help to attract the female and the duller colors of the female make them less likely to be caught by enemies before they have laid their eggs.Some butterflies have a bright pattern of colors on the upper surface of their wings which show when they fly, but when they rest on a tree or leaf, they close their wings. On the undersides of their wings there are green and brown markings which look like the tree or leaves. They are then difficult to see. The best example of this is the Dead Leaf Butterfly. Even its wings are closed, it looks exactly like a dead leaf. There are even marks that look like the holes in a dead leaf. When a bird is chasing a butterfly, and it closes its wings, it seems to have disappeared completely.Many butterflies have round marks on their wings that look like eyes. When they areresting, and their wings are folded, these can’t be seen. When a bird sees one, and begins to attack it, the butterfly opens its wings. The bird thinks that it sees two eyes staring at it, and, frightened, it flies away.1．Which of the following is likely to be the most brightly colored?A．A female in a hot country. B．Male in a cool country.C．A male in a hot country. D．A dead leaf butterfly with wings closed.2．What does the underlined word “chasing”in the 2nd paragraph mean?A．running after. B．looking after. C．leave for. D．stay with.3．What is one of the reasons that female butterflies are safer from enemies than male butterflies?A．Because they are bigger.B．Because they are heavier.C．Because they have colors that are not so bright.D．Because they have marks that look like eyes.4．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．The color of a male butterfly is always brighter than the female’s.B．The Dead Leaf Butterfly has holes in its wings.C．A lot of butterflies seem to have eyes on their wings.D．In order to catch a butterfly, the bird always closes its wings.F18、Come And Join Us!We warmly welcome you to the Shine Sports Centre!All the young people in this city can become members of the Shine Sports Centre and each member should pay $ 10 every year.

But what is health?"Health" means eating well, getting enough exercise, and having a healthy weight. Let's read the following rules. They can help you stay healthy.▲Eat a variety of food, especially fruits and vegetables. We all know that eating fruits and vegetables can help us stay healthy, but many of us only eat our favorite food. Remember that we can only get the nutrition（营养）we need by eating different kinds of food, especially fruits and vegetables.▲ Drink water and milk most often. Everyone knows that water is important. Besides that, kids need plenty of calcium（钙）to grow strong bones, and milk is rich in it. Every day, you should drink at least three cups of milk, when you are 9 years old or older. You should also try to have less sugary drinks, like soda and coca. They include a lot of sugar. Sugar only includes calories（热量）, not important nutrition.▲ Listen to your body. When you are eating, notice how your body feels. When your stomach feels comfortably full, stop eating. Eating too much makes you feel uncomfortable. If you do it too often, it can make unhealthy and fat.▲ Limit screen time. What's screen time? It's the amount of time you spend watching TV, movies and playing computer games. The more time you spend on these sitting-down activities, the less time you spend playing sports, like basketball, and doing other activities like riding and swimming. Try to spend no more than 2 hours a day on screen1．How many rules of keeping healthy are listed in the passage?A．two B．three C．four D．untold2．The underlined phrase "a variety of' means _______________.A．all kinds of B．plenty of C．the rest of D．a lot of3．In this passage, "health" includes all of the following EXCEPT _____________.A．eating well B．doing more exerciseC．having a healthy weight D．wearing comfortable clothes4．Screen time is the time that you spend _____________________.A．playing computer games B．watching moviesC．watching TV D．All of the above5．What's the main idea of the passage?A．How to eat healthy food. B．Suggestions for staying healthyC．Eating and playing are both important. D．Health is very important.B14、Animals can move from place to place, but plants cannot. When an animal is under attack, it can run away or fight back. Plants certainly cannot run away, and they have no teeth or claws. But plants can still protect themselves in both physical and chemical ways.Some plants have their own ways to keep animals away. For example, the leaves of the hollies(冬青树) have sharp spines (刺) that discourage grass-eating animals. Holly leaves on lower branches have more prickles than leaves on upper branches. This is because the lower leaves are easier for most animals to reach.Some plants, such as the oak trees(橡树), have thick and hard leaves that are difficult for animals to eat. Some grasses may contain a sandy material，so eating such grasses wears down the animal's teethMany plants also have the chemical defense. Some plants produce chemicals that taste bitter or cause an unpleasant reaction. Some plants may protect themselves by increasing the production of these chemicals. When a worm(毛虫) bites a tobacco leaf, the leaf produces a chemical smell.Many plants depend on both physical and chemical defense. A certain plant in China, for instance, has prickly (多刺的) leaves, and each prickle contains poisonous water(毒液).Only one experience with this kind of plant will teach an animal to stay away from it in the future.1．What can a plant do when it is under attack?A．It can protect itselfB．It can run away.C．It can fight back.D．It must die.2．Why do the leaves of the hollies have sharp prickles according to the passage?A．Because they are lower.B．Because they are beautiful to watch.C．Because they stop people from picking..D．Because they make grass-eating animals stay away.3．How does an oak tree protect itself?A．It has leaves with a delicious material.B．It has leaves with sharp prickles.C．It has thick and hard leaves.D．Its leaves taste bitter.4．What does the underlined word“sandy” mean in Chinese?A．含盐的B．含沙的C．坏掉的D．腐烂的5．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．The hollies have thick and hard leaves.B．The oak trees have leaves with poisonous waterC．A plant has only one kind of way to protect itself, physical one or chemical one.D．A tobacco leaf produces a chemical smell when a worm bites it.C15、English has become a world language. So which country, except English-speaking countries, speaks English best? And where does China rank(排名)?The Netherlands(荷兰) ranked first, followed by Denmark and Sweden. The rankings are based on English reading and listening test results of 950, 000 people from 72 countries and areas.The English level in China is still low, ranking 39th. In China, people in Shanghai are the best English speakers. They speak better English than Italians and French. Hong Kong and Beijing follow Shanghai as Ch ina’s next bestEnglish-speaking cities.Shanghai and Beijing rank high because they are international cities. However, across China, English level is different from east to west. China has 400 million English learners, reported China Daily. However, the teaching of English in some areas is not very good. According to the People’s Daily Online, there are seventy primary schools in Shetianqiao town in Hunan, but only one English teacher. Many students still learn English by rote memorizaton(死记硬背).Sebastian Magnusson, an officer at the Swedish embassy(瑞典大使馆) in Beijing, gave some advice. Swedish people speak English well and Magnusson himself is also fluent in Chinese. He said TV programs, movies and even computer games could be learning tools. “Do not limit(限制) it to textbooks.

My favorite book is A Midsummer Night’s Dream written by Shakespeare. I enjoy reading it very much. In the story, there are two parallel(平行的) worlds. One is the human world, and the other is the fairy world(童话世界). Hermia, Helena, Lysander and Demetrius are all human beings. Oberon and Titania are the king and the queen of the fairy world.Hermia is my favorite character in this story because she is independent and has the courage to fight for her own choices. Her father suggests that sh e marry Demetrius, but she doesn’t love Demetrius. Instead she loves Lysander and decides to run away with him. Later, because of a trick played by the fairy king, Lysander falls in love with Helena. Hermia feels hurt, but she doesn’t give up. Her decision leads to the story’s happy ending.I also love Oberon, the fairy king, very much. He loves playing tricks. He quarrels(吵架) a lot with the queen because of his jealousy(嫉妒). When he loses to the queen, he plays a trick on her. In many other stories I have read a king is always serious and powerful. Oberon is very different and acts like a child!In A Mid summer Nights Dream, I find characters of different personalities. That is why I think the book is so interesting. The story shows us what life is like in an imaginative and humorous way. 1. Who is the author(作者) of A Midsummer Night’s Dream?A．Mark Twain. B．Shakespeare. C．MargaretMitchell.D．Charlotte Brontë.2.
