He handed me the rod(鱼杆)and taught me how to throw my line into the water.The sun warmed us. We sat and talked. “I remember when I coul d sit here and watch the fish swimming in the water,” he said. “Sometimes, they’d jump out and land beside me. I didn’t even need a fishing rod then.”“We have to be patient,” he continued. “The fish may come or may not. It doesn’t matter. We are out in the sun. It’s a beautiful day. If it rained, we couldn’t be here. We’re lucky to have the warmth of the sun.”He leaned(倚靠)back against a tree. “Yes, it’s a great day,” he said.I watched our bobbers(浮子). No fish pull ed them under the water that day. It didn’t matter. I was with Grandpa. I felt grown up. Just being with him was special.He was well liked by everyone. He had worked hard all his life for what little he had, but he could still find time to laugh. I wanted to be like him when I grew up.He was an amazing man. In the short time we had together, he taught me many things: how to fish, the value of a good laugh, the value of a good friend, respect for my eld ers and the importance of working hard and l oving hard er.

Without snakes, perhaps we would find mice everywhere, Most of us, however, woul d rather see a mouse than a snake, The poison argument( 毒性的争论)is a strong one, Some snakes are poisonous, and this causes people’s death , However, the poisonous snakes are only a small number. We can’t say all the snakes are bad just because of a few dangerous ones. And what d o we do with the people who really like snakes? They like snakes even more strongly than we dislike them. These people learn about them, find them out, and watch them carefully, Why? The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded, They are abl e to put asid e differences and welcome the snake as a friend.Whatever the reason for our like or dislike, snakes d o something good in the circle of life.They would prefer to be left alone, and that is what we should d o, If you’re lucky, you might not run across more than a few of them in a lifetime, That would be fine with most of us.15.How d oes the writer d escribe the appearance of snakes?A.Something even without legs.B.Something not popular among people.C.A person who is neutral.D.A person who cares about nothing.16.Which of the foll owing shows that most peopl e dislike snakes?A.They wel come snakes as their best friends.B.They would rather see a mouse than a snake.C.They wonder why snakes can cause great fear.D.They learn about snakes and watch them carefully.17.Although some snakes are poisonous, _______.A.they cause many people’s deathB.they control the population of miceC.they are not dangerous to peopl eD.they are only a small number18.The last paragraph seems to tell us that the writer _______.A.dislikes snakesB.has the best luckC.l oves snakesD.prefers to be l eft al oneThe Westwood Mid dl e School has d ecid ed to hol d a blood drive (献血活动), and you can help.Help with The Blood DriveThe School is holding a bl ood drive for teachers, parents, and town people.

This is exactly what happened with Du Haotian, a student from Shaanxi province. The potato chips Du is making are called guoba, usually made of millet rice(小米), but here Du chose col ored potatoes as the ingredients(原料).Zhenba, in the south of Shaanxi, has been trying to sell high-quality(质量)potatoes. But the sales are at a l ow l evel. Du, a stud ent of Northwest Agriculture and Forestry University, together with his team, introduced col orful potatoes and mad e them into crispy, fried potato snacks. After trying again and again, it gradually turned into a popular snack at Du’sunive rsity. At the end of last year, Du’s team set up their own factory in the village to plant and produce the snacks locally. At the beginning of this year, the production line was put into use.However, whil e helping the local community, Du was under pressure to graduate. Although he was supposed to graduate in June 2020, Du offered to put off graduation for one year. Du said the production line project was still on the way and he wanted to live up to the expectations of the villagers. “A lot of my friends a nd teachers told me not to do that. But if the factory is built but does not run well, it woul d be against my original intention(初心).” Finally, Du’s teacher supported him.Recently, Du’s potato snacks took part in a college food competition. His product w as once in the first place with the support of many local villagers, which touched Du. “Rural revitalization(乡村振兴)depends on industrial revitalization. I want to make an effort with my hard work in this process.”22.What’s Du’s guoba made of?A.millet rice B.crispy corn C.sweet potatoes D.col orful potatoes23.How did Du’s team help potato sal es in Zhenba?A.They planted high-quality potatoes.

Well, some people can’t recognize this many because of colorblindness. If someone iscol orblind, that means he can’t see as many col ors as others –or, in rare cases, can’t see col ors at all.Thankfully, special glasses have already been made to help fix some types ofcol orblindness. Now, according to a recent research, scientists have brought this solution one step further. Karepov and Ellenbogen, engineers from Israel have found a way to apply this technology to contact lenses (隐形眼镜). This method is so creative because it can solve many different kinds of visual (视力的) problems.People are able to see color because of how the eye is structured. At the back of our eyes, there’re three different kinds of cells that absorb (吸收) light waves. When light waves are absorbed, the cells send a message to the brain for the image to be processed.If something is wrong with these cells, this can cause probl ems when the brain processes the image. One of the most common types of colorblindness is red-greencol orblindness. People who have this specific type of visual imperfection have difficulty telling apart the col ors red and green.“It would influence simple daily routines such as telling the col ors of traffic lights,” Karepov explained. He also stressed the importance of using this finding to create special contact lenses instead of relying on col or-correcting glasses.Whet her you prefer to wear glasses or contacts, it’s nice to know that people who are col orblind will soon be able to choose between the two, as well.31.The writer leads in the topic by _______ at the beginning of the passage.A.describing a fact B.listing a numberC.asking a question D.giving an example32.The second paragraph mainly tells us about _______ colorblindness.A.the main cause of B.the different kinds ofC.a simpl e tool to find D.a new method to fix33.The und erlined word “imperfection” in Parag raph 4 is cl osest in meaning to _______.A.experience B.weakness C.language D.examination34.The overall tone (总基调) of the passage is _______.A.personal and d oubtful B.sad but humorousC.scientific and promising D.informative but meaninglessOne of the things to be learnt in a foreign language is guessing all the time what kind of thing to come when listening to someone talking. Peopl e d o this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary to d o this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples.1.” What’s the matter?” “I went to a party last night, so I…”2.”I feel so tired these days.” “I think you’d better…”3.”Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most…”You can see from the above three examples that the context helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about. So “guessing” is very important in understanding English, especially spoken English.35.This passage tells us mainly about ________.A.the importance of “guessing” in learning a foreign language.B.how to guess what one is going to talk about.C.Some examples of right guessing.D.how important it is to guess all the time.36.From the context, we can see maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 1 is ________.A.…so I didn’t have a good time.”B.…so I went to bed very late.”C.…so I felt unhappy.”D.…so I got up very early.”37.Maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 2 is ________.A.“I think you’d better have a good rest and take good care of yourself.”B.“I think you’d better have something to drink.”C.“I think you’d better get some help from your friends.”D.“I think you’d better to be more careful.”38.From the passage we can infer that guessing is ________ in l earning a foreign language.A.the only wayB.more important in spoken English than in written English.C.more important than any other wayD.more important in written English than in spoken EnglishMr. Smith is fifty years old.

Since many foreign tourists have known little about, here is some information about it.An end and new beginningBy the time of Shuangjiang. most of the harvesting (丰收) work is already completed in northern China .Farmers are now able to enjoy a period of rest.But in the south .the harvest is still in its best time, as farmers have to take home the sweet potatoes before they are destroyed by the coming frost.Across the country, after year of farming, now it is time to pl ow the fields and prepare the soil for next year.Enjoy the flaming red mapl e leaves (枫叶)Autumn might be the most col orful season in China with the leaves turning fromgol den yell ow to red. Activities like hiking become popular as people appreciate the bright red leaves.Nearly all the tourist websites list the best places for admiring the red maple leaves during this time, and many cities start to offer official routes for the best views of the leaves.Appreciating in the view an old tradition starting in ancient times .Du Mu ,awell-known poet from the Tang Dynasty (618-907) described the mountainous scenery in a poem :“ stopped the coach as charmed by the maple woods ; Frosted autumn leaves outshine February fl owers in redness.”Best time to adjust (调整)to a healthy lifestyl eIt is said that Shuangjiang is the best time to adjust to a nourishing (营养的) life, which reflects the belief that this is an important time to focus (关注) on health.

These imports also include solid waste, such as plastics, paper and metals. They mainly come from countries like the United States, the United Kingd om and Japan.These goods will no l onger be imported next year. China will ban(禁止) all imports of solid waste starting from Jan 1, 2021, said the Ministry of Ecol ogy and Environment(MEE).Why d oes China import this waste? In 1980, China’s economy(经济) was gradually taking off because of the reform and opening-up policy(改革开放政策). The country’s factories didn’t have enough raw materials(原材料) at that time. Therefore, China began importing solid waste. After being processed, it can be turned into materials that are used to make other products.For years, China has been the worl d’s largest importer of solid waste, with about 45 million tons arriving each year. Countries that send this waste to China pay about $25(163 yuan) to $50 per ton for recycling, China News Agency reported.Although the waste has helped develop China’s economy, it has brought more risks than benefits. Waste that can’t be used is either burned or buried(填埋). The water used to wash the waste is all owed to fl ow into nearby rivers. This has polluted the air, soil and water, posing a risk to public health, China Daily reported.China has made some efforts to ban waste since 2017. From 2017 to 2019, imports of solid waste fell by 68 percent, dropping from 42 million to 13 million tons, Xinhua reported.What about China’s waste?China can produce enough raw materials to support its economy now. However, it is also producing a rapidly-increasing amount of waste.In 2019, the government worked out a guideline for the creation of zero solid waste programs. These programs have been carried out in 11 cities and five districts(区域), including Shenzhen in Guangdong province and Weihai in Shandong province.50.After Jan 1, 2021, what will no l onger be all owed in China?A.Importing plastic products from abroad.B.Buying solid waste from abroad.C.Selling metals to other countries.D.Producing solid waste.51.What d o we know from Paragraphs 3 and 4?A.Many factories used to use solid waste to make products.B.About 45 million tons of waste are processed worl dwide each year.C.China has made a l ot of money by importing waste.D.It costs very littl e money to recycl e solid waste.52.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A.How solid waste has helped China’s devel opment.B.What we can do to protect ourselves from waste.C.What risks solid waste brought to China.D.How solid waste should be dealt with.53.According to the last paragraph, which word d escribes China’s efforts to ban waste?A.wasteful B.effective(有效的) C.chall enging D.expensiveBeijing Opera, also called Peking Opera, is our national opera. It came into being (形成) after 1790 and has a history of over 200 years. Its music and singing came from Xipi and Erhuang in Anhui and Hubei. The Guangxu Emperor (帝王) and Empress Dowager Cixi were also crazy about Beijing Opera and helped d evelop the art form.There are four main rol es in Beijing Opera: Sheng, Dan, Jing, Chou. Sheng is the leading male (男性) actor. For example, a Wusheng is a soldier or fighter. A Xiaosheng is a young man.A Laosheng is an old man with beard (胡子). Dan is the female (女性) role.

Sometimes they are afraid and worried. Then they find a way to make peace with (与……讲和) each other. Everyone is usually happy in the end.Beijing Opera is an important part of Chinese culture. In China it used to be popular with old people while young people didn’t like it very muc h. However, more young people arebecoming interested in it nowadays.

One way to get rid of the polluted car is to design a car that does not pollute.That's what several of the large car factories have been trying to do.But to build a clean car is easier said than done.Progress in this field has been slow.Another way is to take the place of the car engine(发动机)by something else.Inventors are now working on steam cars as well as electric cars.Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases man.To prevent the world from being polluted by car,we'll have to make some changes.Americans,for example,have to cut down on the number of their total cars.They are encouraged to travel and to go to work by bicycle.Bicycling is thought to help keep the air clean.But this change doesn't come easily—a large number of workers may find themselves without jobs if a car factory closes down.Thus the problem of air pollution would become less important than that of unemployment.Althoughcars have led us to a better life,they have also brought us new problems.(1)Some large car factories in the US are trying to build a new kind of car which_______.A.is clean in itselfB.is used to clean streetsC.is easier to makeD.does not pollute the air(2)If the number of cars cuts down,the most serious problem to American workers is to_______.A.have no work to doB.improve their environmentC.go to work by bikeD.make their factories richer(3)The writer wants to tell us that_______.A.riding a bike is the only way outB.the number of cars must be cut downC.people wouldn't live without carsD.cars bring us not only a better life but also serious problems(4)Which fact does the passage provide?A.About one sixth of American workers are working in car factories.B.The best way to get rid of air pollution is to change the car engine by something else.C.It isn't easy to change the way of life in the US.D.In the US bikes will surely take the place of cars in the future.(5)Which is the best title(标题)for the passage?A.A New Way to Get Rid of Polluted AirB.Cars and Polluted AirC.Many Serious Problems in the USD.Changes in Car Production2.根据短文内容,选择正确答案。

"So you were going about 50 km/h, my lady?" he asked. "No, I said I was going about 55 km,/h," I said. "Right, so you were driving at a speed of about 50 km/h?" he asked again.I was a little annoyed because I felt he wasn't listening to me carefully. So I shouted, "No! I was going about 55 km/h.""OK, if that's the way you want it," the officer simply replied. Because the city speed limit is 50 km/h, I only got paid from my insurance (保险) company for the damage to my car, but the other driver's insurance company couldn't pay me due to my speed.

He was short and thin. He walked up to the teacher and told her, very seriously, that he was new. His name was Christian. He sat down, took a look at me, and then looked away. I didn't think he was very nice and I was sure he wasn't the type I would like to become friends with.During that year, I didn't talk to him much, but he smiled at me when our eyes met, always shyly. He never ate lunch with anybody, and he never talked to anybody but me.But one day I joined those unkind kids who were making fun of him. We made fun of him though I thought it was wrong."Haven't you got any friends?" a kid asked Christian, who had walked past us alone, head down. "No, he hasn't got any friends. He's too stupid and shy," I said. Then Christian looked up at me with the saddest dog eyes I had ever seen. I felt very sorry at that moment.That night, I couldn't sleep because I couldn't get Christian's face out of my mind. In the weeks that followed, he never met my eyes in class and never smiled at me. It was really hard for me to decide to write him a note asking him to forgive (原谅) me. But I thought I should.The next day in class, I wrote him a note telling him how sorry I felt. About five minutes later, I turned and saw tears in his eyes. "You will never realize what your apology (道歉) has meant to me, Jimmy," he said to me. "I hope we can become friends."We had lunch together that noon and we had the best talk I had ever had. Over the years at high school, we were close friends.When I think back, I realize that, if I had not apologized, I would never have known what alovely person Christian was!Apologies can really change your life, so never miss the chance to tell somebody you are sorry.(1)From the passage, we know Christian was a ________ boy.A. tall and fatB. short and shyC. short and activeD. lovely and fat(2)Jimmy felt ________ after he made fun of Christian with other unkind kids.A. happyB. interestedC. sorryD. bored(3)This passage tells us that ________.A. we should make an apology when we hurt othersB.

They stood in a circle, with 30 more stones lying on top to form a ring of rocks. There was also an inner circle built with similar stones. The stones set up in a trilithon(巨石牌坊) pattern.A trilithon is made of two stone pillars with a stab of rock laid across the top. The stones weigh up to 20 tons each. People wonder how the huge rocks were placed that way.Historians agree that Stonehenge was built in three different stages. The first stage took place about 5, 000 years ago. At that time, a large circular earth wall was made. Historians believe the wall was dug and cut with tools made form anglers(鹿角)of red deer. The earth wall was about 98m in diameter(直径) a 5-meter-tall stone was placed near the center. Then, they had to transport the large blue stones (up to 4 tons) 384 kilometers to Stonehenge. Experts think they might be moved across ice and snow. The ground in winter in this area is usually full of ice and snow, making it easier to move the rocks. The next task was to stand the stones up. The most difficult task was putting the top stones in place. Each one of these tasks took a lot of planning and a lot of strength, but the workers of Stonehenge were excellent builders.Why was the monument built? Some scientists think it's a burial ground. There are over 400 graves (burial sits) nearby. A man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470 BC). Others think Stonehenge was built by early astronomers. Scientists believe that when a person stands in the center of the monument, the changing of seasons can be seen. Certain stones mark the location of the rising and setting moon in midwinter. Other stones mark the rising and setting sun in midsummer. The ancient people held religious ceremonies on these days. These ceremonies probably asked the gods to bring good weather for crops and to protect the people from bad weather.Stonehenge is an engineering success. Thousands of years later, it still stands. As a calendar, Stonehenge is very accurate. It shows that early people had a deep understanding of the movements to the sun and the moon. They didn't have machines or computers, but Stonehenge shows people could do many things using only their muscles and their brains.(1)he first building stage of Stonehenge was ________.A. to dig and cut the earth wallB. to move the blue stones across the iceC. to stand the stones upD. to put the top stones in place(2)Which evidence(证据) is given to support the idea that Stonehenge was a burial ground?A. Stonehenge was made of stones.B. It is a place for celebrating ceremonies.C. The passing of seasons can be seen there.D. Two gold earrings were found in a grave.(3)The underlined word "accurate" in the last paragraph probably means "________".A. correctB. strangeC. hugeD. heavy(4)Stonehenge was probably NOT originally built for ________.A. touristsB. religious reasonsC. a burial groundD. telling the seasons6.阅读理解This August, we'll welcome guests from all over the world.

If it's hard for you to communicate with your parents, don't worry about it. Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (代沟).Don't argue (争辩) with your parents. Don't get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won't consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. Go someplace to cool off. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don't think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter.Try to reach a compromise (和解). Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong.Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about, and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life.A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person. It is worth having a try!(1)According to the passage who have a communication problem?A. parents and other peopleB. only school kids and their parentsC. teachers and their studentsD. parents and children of all ages(2)How many pieces of advice does the writer give us to bridge the generation gap?A. 5.B. 4.C. 3.D. 2.(3)The underlined word "bridge" in the passage means "___________".A. 建立B. 消除C. 通过D. 到达(4)If the values of your parents are different from those of yours, you'd better ___________.A. argue with themB. keep away from themC. agree with them all the timeD. tell your parents what you care about(5)The best title for the passage is ___________.A.

He is almost sick when my mother calls, "Herbert! 132It's seven o'clock! Get up!"133Herbert answers, "I'm coming!" and goes right back to sleep. I'm not 134at all like my brother. I don't like to go to bed at night but I don't 135mind getting up in the morning. I usually wake up before my mother calls 136me. I jump out of bed and go into the bathroom to take a shower. I get 137dressed, brush my teeth, comb my hair, and get ready to go downstairs for 138breakfast as soon as my mother calls.139But not Herbert. He just sleeps. A military band (军乐队) in our 140bedroom could not wake him up. I call him and say, "Get up! Mum will be 141up here to pull you out of bed if you don't get up immediately!"142But he just sleeps. After calling a few more times my mother has to 143come upstairs and pull Herbert out of bed. It's that way every day with 144my little brother. Perhaps some day he'll learn to get up on time, but 145I really don't think so.146True or False1471. The most terrible thing in life for my little brother is going to 148school.1492.

"I think you'd better be more careful."2614. Maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 3 is ______.262A. "… she is one of the most famous film stars."263B. "…she is one of the most beautiful women."264C.
