They don’t keep us warm like our hair, or help us breathe like our noses. So why do we have them? 32 .Eyebrows allow us to express emotions (情绪), as well as better understand others.

Until his final few days, I grew up completely lacking(缺少) hugs. Neither of my parents was the cuddly(令人想拥抱的) type. Greetings including kissing embarrassed me, and hugging generally just made me feel 1 .Then one hug changed all that. One month before my 40th birthday my dad had a heart disease. As he came round, days later, he grabbed me and 2 me so hard that I had to push to keep my head from pressing down on his chest.It was a hug to make up for all those we had 3 had. Days later as he slowly started to gain strength he told me for the first time that he loved me, and through my 4 I told him I loved him too.I began planning how to bake(烘焙) him better -- with carrot 5 , victoria sponges, jelly and ice cream. And I imagined wheeling him 6 the park and feeding him home-made goodies. Then he died.I felt cheated. All my life I had wondered whether my dad loved me -- I doubted it. Just as I got proof that he did, he 7 .My parents split up when I was two years old and, 8 I had monthly contact with my dad, usually, he, my bitter stepmother and I counted the hours until I could go home again.The weekends at my father's house felt 9 . I didn't have any clear close father- daughter 10 to cling (依恋) to and recall. Most of them were of uncomfortable times together, but I missed him being alive very much, To a child, a hug 11 so many things. It tells you that the person hugging you loves you, and12 for you. A hug also confirms that you are a lovable being. Months after dad's death I somewhat realized that his lack of hugs said more than about him than me.

She cycled to school, and then when entering the school gate, she would gave her bicycle to anyone of us to park it for her. It was a privilege（特别恩典）when Miss Bailey gave her bicycle to you. One day Shankar stood at the gate, Shankar was a hunchback（驼背的人）.We laughed and said, “Move out of the way, Shankar! Miss Bailey is going to enter!” Miss Bailey drove in and we all rushed to offer our hands t o her. But Miss Bailey looked past us all. “Will you park it for me?” she asked. We looked back to see who it was and were surprised to see it was towards Shankar. “I don’t think so, Miss Bailey!” stammered （结结巴巴地说）Shankar. “Why! Y ou lazy fellow!” said Miss Bailey playfully. “You don’t want to help your teacher, do you?” “ Of course I want to, Miss Bailey!” whispered Shankar. “But I might drop your cycle!” “ If you drop it ,you pick it up!” said the teacher with a smile.With that she gave her cycle to Shan kar and didn’t look to see how he’d manage. Pretending she had confidence in his abilities, Miss Bailey turned and walked to class. We watched Shankar as he held her bike, we held our breath as we thought it was going to fall. Dines rushed to help. “Leave it!” Shankar said, and we all stopped. It seemed that his hump （驼背）disappeared as he drew himself up to his full height, and then with growing confidence, he pushed Miss Bailey’s cycle to the parking lot. The school bell rang, and we rushed to class. Shankar was the last to enter, but we were surprised; it was a different boy who walked in.Miss Bailey didn’t even look at him as he walked to her and handed her the key.

It is their great ambition（雄心）in life. They think pop-stars earn a lot of money, they lead interesting and exciting lives, thousands of fans love them, and they become famous!Yes, but first they must become stars. Most performers star life with a group. This is the pattern nowadays. But there are many groups and competitions are hard. Groups appear and disappear almost overnight. Only a small number survive. Almost without exception they have to work very hard before they reach the top.And very few reach the top and stay there. In England there are perhaps thirty or so groups at the top. Most of these do not earn so much money, perhaps 500 pounds each time they perform. What’s more, they have quite a lot of expenses(开销). They have to pay a manager, for example. He is the key person in their lives and takes about 20% of their earnings-perhaps more. Then there are their clothes, their instruments and their van. Sometimes they are still playing for the last two items.And don’t forget, they have to travel a g reat deal-sometimes 2,000 miles in one week. At times they even sleep in their van instead of a hotel, just to save money.So now, what do you think? Are pop-stars so rich? And do they have such exciting lives?1．Which of the following is the reason that many young people want to become pop-stars?A．Living an exciting life.B．Becoming a rich man.C．Being loved by thousands of fans.D．All of the above.2．Why is the group’s manager well paid?

Do you want to power your home with the energy of your own activities? These are two of the developments that engineers at International Business Machines Company (IBM) think will come true within the next five years. The technology company has announced its latest “5 in 5” report.The engineers at IBM think people will soon be able to control many electronic equipments simply by using their minds. They say people will soon have a way to just think about calling or emailing someone in order to make it happen. Another thing that will happen is a way for people to power their homes and offices using energy from activities like walking or running. Bemie Meyerson, IBM’S President, says this is known as micro-electronic times.Also, passwords could soon become a thing of the past. IBM says technology developments could soon make passwords unnecessary. Some of the most common ways used to tell people are fingerprints, face and voice differences, and iris scans. The iris is the colored part of the eye. Bemie Meyerson says this technology will soon be more widely used by money machines and other designs.The fourth possibility on IBM’s “5 in 5” list is an end to the digital designs “between those who have technology and those who do not”.1．According to Paragraph 2, you can control an electronic equipments by .A．writing an English email to it B．giving it a telephone callC．thinking about your thoughts D．ordering it in your voice2．We know if micro-electronic times come true, people .A．will need to run in the house all dayB．will live a much more relaxing lifeC．will no longer need to go to their officesD．can produce electricity through activities3．If you use iris scans to tell a person, you .A．have to use passwords at firstB．should show your fingerprintsC．need to look straight at the machineD．ought to speak to the machine aloud4．What does the underlined word “password” in Paragraph 4 mean?A．指纹B．密码C．声控D．拍照5．What will most probably be talked about next after reading the passage?A．Inventions created by IBM in the past.B．People’s opinions on the devel opments.C．Something that will happen in the future.D．More information on the fourth possibility.E17、Dragons are not real animals, but look like a combination(结合体) of many animals such as snakes, fish and deer. They have two horns(角) and a long moustache(胡子). With fantastic powers, they fly in the sky or swim in the sea. They can make rain, too. The Chinese dragon is a symbol of strength and good luck. The emperors of ancient China loved dragons. Their clothes were covered with pictures of dragons.We a re proud to call ourselves the “descendants(传人)of the dragon”. In Chinese, “excellent” people are often called “dragons”. A number of Chinese sayings talk about dragons, for example, “Hoping one’s child will become a dragon”, which means hoping he or she will be successful.It is said that people born in the year of the dragon have certain characteristics(特征). They are creative, confident, brave and quick-tempered（性急的）. They are some famous “dragons” who have done excellent things, for example, the great man Deng Xiaoping, the famous businessman Li Jiacheng and the movie star Zhao Wei. They are all very successful.There are also some traditional festivals about dragons in China, such as Dragon Head-Raising Day and Dragon Boat Festival. We have different kinds of activities to celebrate them. These two festivals come every year, but the Year of the Dragon comes every twelve years.The dragon is very important in Chinese culture. As the “descendants of the dragon”, it is necessary for us to know the opinion s on dragons in our culture. It can help us understand why our parents always want us to be “dragons”.根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。
