Reading Comprehension（阅读理解）A)Choose the best answ er（根据上下⽂内容，选择最恰当的答案）Most people of the world do not bow to each other, but Japanese people do. They oftenbow when they meet. Men bow to men and women bow to women. Men and women mayalso bow to each other, but usually only if they do not know each other. The younger, ormore junior person bows more deeply than the older, or more senior person. The. Japanesealso bow to say 'thank you' for something, or to apologize for something.Schoolchildren do not bow to each other. Schoolgirls say goodbye to each other by waving their hands and saying 'bye bye'. Schoolboys may copy Westerners and pat each other on the back or make "high fives' with their hands.Many types of hand gestures have special meanings. You may see Japanese people put their thumb and index finger together to form a circle. This circle represents a coin and this gesture is the sign for money. If the Japanese want to indicate 'me' without using words, they point to themselves by putting a finger to their noses, but Westerners would point to their chests. All young Japanese children learn to make a 'V sign with their middle and index fingers when someone takes their photograph. In Japan, this sign means 'peace', but in England this sign means 'victory'. To say 'No', ' I don't know' or ' I don't understand', Japanese people wave their hands in front of their faces, so it may be difficult to understand exactly what someone means.Nodding of the head may also be confusing. When Japanese people nod their heads, itdoes not mean they agree with what you are saying, it means that they understand whatyou are saying . You must also be careful not to misunderstand a smile. When theJapanese smile they may not be happy, in fact they may be embarrassed.As in most countries in the world, Japanese people use a lot of body language. Someof it you will understand and some of it will be new or confusing to you.74.Japanese people bow___________.A)occasionally B)sometimes C)often D)never75.Japanese men and women bow to each otherA)usually...when they know each other B)always...when they first meet each otherC)usually...when they first meet each other D)always...when they know each other76.When Japanese people point to their noses it means____________.A)they need to blow their noses B)there is a bad smellC)they are lying D)they are talking about themselves77.When a Japanese person nods,it may meanA)'I am happy' B)'I agree' C)'I understand' D)' Idisagree'78.Some body language used in Japan is___________.A)international B)Italian C)childish D)onlyused at home'79.The Japanese__________.A)don't like using body language B)don't use much body languageC)only use Western body language D)use a lot of body languageB) Choose the words or expressions to complete the passage(选择最恰当的单词或短语，完成短⽂)Sir Alexander Fleming (亚历⼭⼤-弗来明), the discoverer of penicillin(青霉素), was on!

They also enjoy the lowest ^ obesity (肥胖症)rate in thedeveloped countries. What's tlterr secret? Their HHaTthy diet contributes a lot,"Eating" with your eyesAn important feature of the Japanese diet is the visual appeal(视觉吸引)offood. Food with attractive appearance is presented on pretty little dishes andplates. This way of dining encourages you to "eat" with your eyes, by enjoying the beauty of the food. The result is that you slow down to savor(品尝) every bite, which means eating less, because it gives your brain time to realize you're full. Smaller portions (量)In Japan, food is served on separate small plates, and in bowls instead of on one big plate. Diners take turns having a little taste of everything. Serving smaller portions maybe one of the best secrets for healthy eating and weight loss. Research shows that when we're served more, we tend to eat it—whether we are hungry or not.V egetable crazeJapanese prefer fresh vegetables and fruits. Lots of fresh vegetables and fruits are eaten daily in the Japanese diet. Japan is kind of a "vegetable-crazed" (嗜蔬菜如命的) nation. When Japanese women were asked which home-cooked meals they most loved to prepare for their families"mixed vegetable simmered (炖) in soup" came out on top. Green beans, onions, tomatoes, green.peppers, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, sweet potatoes all have a place in the Japanese diet. V egetables are served simmered in soup, stir—fried (炒) in a small bit of canola oil (菜油) or lightly steamed(清蒸). All these methods keep a maximum amount of nutrients(营养成分).Plenty of fishJapanese eat a lot offish. Japan account for(占....⽐例)only 2% of the world's population, but its people eat 10% of the world's fish. Fish, especially fatty fish, for example, salmon (三⽂鱼) and tuna (⾦枪鱼) are Japanese favorites.

It was long believed that all bats are blind, and still in many places, we can often say "as blind as a bat".Yet they have no trouble flying on the darkest nights and finding their way home very Well. How can bats fly and see at night? They fly by radar.The bat's radar system works the same way as the one that ships and planes use. When a bat flies, through the air, he makes a high sound. It is too high for our ears to hear. If the sound hits things, it comes back. The bat's ears receive the sound. In this way they are able to tell where the things are.Bats go out to look for food at night. During the day-time they hang in some dark places. Some people don't think the bats are good animals. In fact, they are useful animals.(17. F 18. F 19. T 20. T 21. T 22. F 23. F)D. Listen to the passage and fill in the blanks (听短⽂填空，完成下列句⼦。

The problems seem so big that it's difficult to imagine how individuals (个人) can do anything about them. Rebecca Hosking, however, thought differently.Rebecca is a wildlife camerawoman and she was filming a documentary (纪录片) for the BBC in the Pacific Ocean when she saw something that made her cry — hundreds of dead birds that had died because they had accidentally (意外地) eaten the plastic thrown into the sea. People throw tons of plastic into the sea each year! Beaches on Pacific islands that should have been some of the most beautiful places in the world were covered with plastic toys, drinks bottles, pens, cigarette lighters — every plastic thing you can think of.Rebecca decided that she had to do something. Back at home she thought about what she could do to help solve the problem of throwaway plastic. In her hometown of Modbury, she asked local shopkeepers if they could do one thing to help. She asked them to stop using plastic bags in their shops.Plastic bags are used everywhere in Britain — every supermarket every corner shop. The numbers are amazing. Britain uses nearly 17 billion plastic bags each year. And the bags can take hundreds of years to break down because they are chemical rather than natural, so each year the sea and the environment become more and more polluted.To Rebecca's surprise, the shopkeepers agreed and Modbury became the first plastic bag free town in Britain. Instead, shops offered reusable cotton bags or biodegradable (生物可降解的) bags.Other towns followed Modbury's example and towns around Britain and around the world are becoming plastic bag free. It won't solve all of the world's environmental problems but it shows that people are becoming active and starting to think about how the little things in their daily lives can have a big effect. It also shows us that there is something we= can do and that one person can make a big change with a strong enough belief.93. Did Rebecca agree individuals could do nothing about the big environmental problems?94. Why did the hundreds of birds die in the Pacific Ocean?95. The beaches on Pacific islands are no longer some of the most beautiful places, are they?96. How many plastic bags do people in Britain use each year?97. What does the sentence "The shop is plastic bag free" mean?It means the shop__________________________________.98. What can you learn from Rebecca's story?X. Writing（作文）：（共20分）99.

In school it is not so easy to learn a foreign languagebecause the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too.But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises.

When the policemen came, Harry and his father went to talk to them. "I saw the robber," Harry told the policemen. "I can describe him. He was about fifty years old. He was bald with a big, red nose and thick lips. And he had big ears. He was quite tall and thin. He had something wrong with his right leg." "How do you know that?" one of the policemen asked Harry. "He limped," Harry said. "What was he wearing?" the other policeman asked. Harry told the policeman that the man was wearing black jeans and a shirt. "His mask was a lady's stocking. His shoes were white sports shoes." Harry added. "You are a very careful boy," the policeman said. "Well done!" The next day the police caught the robber. They put him in a line with some other men. They asked Harry to point him out, Harry did this easily. The police arrested the man.(17. F 18. T 19. T 20. F 21. T 22. F 23. T)D. Listen to the dialogue and complete the following sentences PRESENTER: Tell ,us about your new hook, Penny. PENNY: Well, it's another Captain Fish-Eye story for young children, about 6 years old. I enjoy writing about all Captain Fish-Eye's adventures at sea, and children love him and his amazing ship. PRESENTER: They don't feel it's boring to read the same stories again and again, do they? PENNY: No, never. PRESENTER: What type of books do young children enjoy most? PENNY: Young children really like funny stories--anything to make them laugh. And the pictures are very important too. Young children need books with bright colourful pictures. PRESENTER: You know, Walt Disney has made many famous fairy-stories into wonderful films. Is it better for children to see the films or to read the books? PENNY: I have to say, books are better. Of course, it's nice to see a happy children's film sometimes, but it isn't as good as reading a book. When children read stories, they see pictures in their heads and they use their minds much more. It's very important for them to do this when they're young. PRESENTER: I've heard that children in Britain read a lot of books. They read much more than children in many other countries. Do you know why? PENNY: Well, I think it's because British parents have always read to their children a lot. In most families, children listen to a story every evening before they go to sleep, and at school teachers read to their classes. Children learn to love books and want to read more and more.
