Her mom allowed her to do anything she liked. I really admired Tiffany. My mom didn’t give me much pocket money and she always told me that I should behave myself. I was angry with her.Whenever I didn’t get what I wanted, I would complain to my mom, “Tiffany’s mom would give her that! I wish she were my mom.” Every time my mom would calmly say “Poor Tiffany”. I couldn’t understand her. “She shouldn’t be feeling sorry for Tiffany!” I thought. “She should be feeling sorry for me.”One day, I couldn’t help saying to Mom, “Poor Tiffany? Lucky Tiffany! She gets everything she wants! Why do you feel sorry for her?” I burst into tears.My mom sat down next to me and explained softly, “Yes, I do feel sorry for her.I have been teaching you a lesson that she will never be taught.”I looked up at her. “What are you talking about?”Mom said with care, “One day she will really want something. Maybe she’ll find out that she can’t have it. Her mother won’t always be around to give her money, and what’s more, money can’t buy everything.”She continued, “I have taught you valuable lessons by not giving you everything you want. You’ll know how to look for bargains and save money, but she won’t. You'll understand that you need to work hard to get the things you want but she won’t. When Tiffany is a grown woman, she’ll wake up one day and she will be wishing that she had a mom like the one you’ve got. Life lessons are more important than modern clothes and delicious food.”It took some time, but I finally understood my mom’s words. Now I am a happy and successful woman.5.

She was strict and taught the author to be independent.B. She cared for other people’s children more than her own.C. She thought that life lessons were as important as money.D.

Too many advertisements for food. Too little activity. Different explanations are offered for America’s weight problem — a problem increasingly shared by other countries. Almost one-fifth of American children and teenagers are overweight.Schools have been asked to increase physical education, an important tool for public health. However, a recent study has shown an increase in the number of injuries in PE classes.Researchers say one possibility is a decrease in the number of school nurses during the period they studied. Schools without a nurse on duty may be more likely to send an injured child to a hospital.Another possible reason for more injuries is a change in the traditional idea of physical education. This “New P.E.” expands the kinds of sports that are taught. But activities that some schools offer now, like rock climbing and skateboarding,can also expand the risks, says Cheryl Richardson, who is with the National Association for Sport and Physical Education. Also, she says not all states require P.E. teachers to be specially trained. Untrained teachers could be less likely to recognize unsafe conditions.Cheryl Richardson points to one of the study’s findings — that injuries are often the result of contact with a person or a structure. This tells her that the teachers were not giving each student enough space to move around safely.Six activities produced seventy percent of all injuries: running, basketball, football, volleyball, soccer and gymnastics.The researchers say larger class sizes are another possible reason for the increase in injuries. Larger classes can mean less supervision(监督). The National Association for Sport and Physical Education says twenty to thirty students in a P.E. class should be the limit.9. What are the P.E. classes in American schools like now?A. They have become more dangerous for students than before.B. They are interesting and safe enough for students.C. They need excellent skills rather than physical strength.D. They strictly follow the traditional idea of physical education.10. We can learn from the third paragraph that_______.A. there are school nurses in every American schoolB. American girls love working as nurses in schoolsC. American nurses have been well paid by the hospitalD. American schools need more school nurses at presentDTwo good friends, Sam and Jason, met with a car accident on their way home one snowy night. The next morning, Sam woke up blind, whose legs were broken. The doctor, Mr. Lee, was standing by his bed, looking at him worriedly. When he saw Sam awake, he asked, “How are you feeling, Sam?” Sam smiled and said, “Not bad, Doctor. Thank you very much for doing the special operation.” Mr. Lee was moved by Sam. When he was leaving, Sam said, “Please don’t tell Jason about it.” “Well…Well…OK!” Mr. Lee replied.see or walk. He could do nothing but stay in his wheelchair all day long. At first, Jason stayed with him for a few days. But days later, Jason thought it boring to spend time with a disabled man like Sam. So he went to see Sam less and less. He made new friends. From then on, he didn’t go to visit Sam any more. Sam didn’t have any family or friends except Jason. He felt very sad.Things went from bad to worse. Sam died a year later. When Jason came, Mr. Lee gave him a letter from Sam. In the letter Sam said, “Dear Jason, I am disabled. But I want you to be a healthy man. So I gave my eyes to you so that you can enjoy life as a healthy man. Now you have new friends. I’m glad to see that you are as healthy and happy as usual. I’m glad you live a happy life. You are always my best friend... Sam”. When he finished reading the letter, Mr. Lee said, “I have promised that I will keep the secret until Sam is gone. Now you know it.”Jason stood there like a stone. Tears ran down his face.12. From the story, Sam thanked Mr. Lee mainly because Mr. Lee_________.A. saved his friend Jason’s lifeB. was very kind and friendly to himC. came to see him early in the morningD. performed the operation according to his wish13. According to the passage, we can infer that ___________.A. Sam caused the car accidentB. Sam’s operation was not successfulC. Jason was made blind in the car accidentD.

We can conclude that Sam is a man who _________.A. felt hopeless after the car accident happenedB. was unfriendly to his friendC. thought friendship was importantD. always listened to his friends15.

This was one more weapon(武器)for her to defeat my strange problem — inability to read.In the library, I found my way into the “Children’s Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random(随便地). The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle(小猎犬). I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion (伙伴) I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.There on the book’s cover was a beagle which looked similar to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade(树荫) of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of thestory about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. That dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion(重聚), on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.My mother’s call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be unbelievably wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my “miraculous” (奇迹般地) experience that summer, but she saw a slow but great improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded(授予) a PhD in literature, and authored(创作) his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words has held.24. The author’s mother told him to borrow a book in order to_____.A. encourage him to do more walkingB. let him spend a meaningful summerC. help cure him of his reading problemD. make him learn more about weapons25. The book caught the author’s eye because_____.A. it contained pretty pictures of animalsB. it reminded him of his own dogC. he found its title easy to understandD. he liked children’s st ories very much26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The author has become a successful writer.B. The author’s mother read the same book.C. The author’s mother rewarded him with books.D. The author has had happy summers ever since.27. Which one could be the best title of the passage?A. My Passion(激情)for ReadingB. Mum’s Strict OrderC. Reunion with My BeagleD. The Charm(魅力)of a BookCThe Polish take great pride in their culture. Our culture has many different customs and traditions. I will discuss three of these traditions and customs.The Polish will say “Dziekuje” (“thank you”) only after receiving their change. What I mean by this is that when you are in Poland, you should wait to say “thank you” until after y ou have been given your change back. If you do not, you are telling cashiers (收银员) that they can “keep the change.” Often, people visiting Poland will feel that things are very expensive, until they learn that they are giving the store clerk permission to keep the money that would have been given back.Polish people break “bread” with their families during their Christmas Eve meal. The Christmas Eve celebration starts with the breaking of the Oplatek, which is a thin piece of “bread”. In my family, the eldest in the family (my g randfather) takes the big Oplatek and breaks it into large pieces that he then hands down to each of his four children (my aunt, uncles, and father). Then, these family members break their pieces into smaller sizes and pass them out to their own children. Once the last piece is passed down to the youngest, we say a prayer and eat the piece of thin bread.Polish people celebrate “Imieniny”, or Name’s Day. This day is more important than one’s birthday. They often name their children after a saint (圣徒) whose day is the closest to the date that they were born on. Then their saint’s day that they were named after becomes their “new” birthday. On Name’s day, families and friends gather together and enjoy a variety of food, drinking, and dancing.As you can see, Poland has a few very unique traditions and customs. I honour my Polish culture and will pass it on to my own children because it is important to know one’s own culture.28.When you do shopping in Poland, ________.A. your change may be kept by cashiersB. your change will be given to you certainlyC. you needn’t wait to be servedD. you will get some cheap goods29.On Christmas Eve, the author will receive “bread” from ________ directly.A. his grandfatherB. his auntC. his uncleD. his father30.In Poland, “Imieniny” is a day to _______.A. to celebrate ChristmasB. to miss families and friendsC. to celebrate one’ new birthdayD. to celebrate an anniversary31.What’s the author’s attitude towards Polish culture?A. IndifferentB. NegativeC. Worried.D. Supportive.DCONCORD, N.H.—A flood of rain forced hundreds of people to leave their homesin parts of New England on Sunday, as water flowed over dams and washed out roads.The governors of New Hampshire and Massachusetts said, “It’s a very serioussituation,” adding that forecasters were predicting 12 to 15 inches of rain by theend of the storm in parts of southern New Hampshire. “It continues to change andis getting worse.”In some towns, police and firefighters used boats to get people out of theirhomes and cars after hundreds of roads were damaged. Some towns shut down, not lettinganyone pass except emergency vehicles.A dam in Milton, N.H., was in danger of failing, which could send a 10-foot wallof water downstream. People downstream were being evacuated (转移) from the town.In Massachusetts, cars were pulled from flooded streets in downtown Peabody,and about 300 people were evacuated from an apartment complex for seniors. Businessesput sandbags at their doors, trying to prevent damage from water.Flooding in New Hampshire in October killed seven people, carried off homes andwashed away miles of roads down to bedrock.In Maine, flooding was reported on 60 roads in the southern part of the state,said governor’s spokeswoman Crystal Canney. More than 50 homes in Sanford and several in Kennebunk also were evacuated, state officials said.32.The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 2 probably refers to ________A. the situationB. the rainC. the roadD. the governor33. Up to now, the rain has caused ________.A. the failing of the damsB. some towns to shut downC. 50 people to leave their homesD. temporary houses to be built34.What can we learn from the passage?A. The rain has reached about 15 inches.B. The situation is predicted to be the worst.C. The flood caused 7 deaths and more than 300 injuries.D. Only emergency vehicles are allowed to pass in some towns.35.What tpye of writing is this text?A. A news report.B. An announcement.C. A scientific research.D.
