My elder brother Steve gave me important lessons in values that helped me grow into an adult after my father died when I was six years old. Steve taught me to face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who asked me what happened. When I told him that my baseball had flown through Mrs. Holt’s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve
the path between the buildings. Although my voice shook as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window from my pocket money.
I also learned from Steve that personal property(财产) is a sacred(神圣的) thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to the loser although it had little value (价值). He also reminded (提醒) me of how sad I was when I lost the small dog my father made from a bit of cheap wood. At last, I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids. I still remembered the smell of her perfume as she patted me on the shoulder. Yet of all the lessons Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve, I killed an old brown sparrow bird in the garden with a gun. Excited with my accuracy, I asked Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “Even if it hurts you first, you should think a long time and then decided whether you will kill it or not.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.
69.How many lessons Steve gave to Mark are mentioned in the passage?
A) One B) Two C) Three
D) Four
70.From the second paragraph, we know when Mark confessed to Mrs. Holt,______.

C) When a living thing hurts you, you should kill it.
D) Even if a living thing hurts you, you should not kill it at once.

Keeping a good budget
You may have got much New Year money from your parents and your relatives this year. But if you don’t have a (n) 75 plan for spending it, it could run out very fast. So you may want to plan a budget.
A budget is a plan to 76 where your money goes. Budgeting can help you save for the things you want, but can’t pay for right now. Sounds useful? Look at the following things before you start your budget:
1. Every week, there are things we have to pay for, like school lunches and buses. There are also things we like to spend money on just for fun! These are our weekly expenses(支出).
2. Since we can’t have money for everything, we have to make 77 .We need to ask if we really need something or just want it. Needs are what you must have in order to live, like food and water, Wants are things you would like to have or do, 78 you can still live without them.
For example, Ds and cartoons.
3. List what you spend on needs---and if there is money left over, you will save for the things you really want. This is called a budget.
4. If you don’t have enough money for what you need and want, you may have to 79 one for the other.
No budget is fixed. Keep an eye on yours. Maybe you wanted a comic book, but now you want
a video game. 80 Your needs may change into wants, or your wants may change into needs.
75. A) attractive B) careful C) creative D) important
76. A) discover B) stop C) care D) control
77. A) choices B) money C) efforts D) changes
78. A) or B) and C) so D) but
79. A) focus on B) give up C) rely on D) find out
80. A) ever B) again C) either D) instead
C. Fill in the blanks with proper words (在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给) (14 分)
Reading an E nglish newspaper is a good way to improve a student’s language ability. As there are many useful and common words in an English newspaper, it may help i 81 their vocabulary as well as improve their reading skills. But what is a proper way to read an English newspaper? Do students need to look over all the content(内容) of the newspaper?
The first step is to choose a r 82 newspaper with good language. Then turn to the front page and read the h 83 to know what has happened. As the most important things are put on the front page, it’s easy to find out what you’re interested in and then turn to other pages to read it thoroughly. There is no need to read all the articles.
Secondly, read newspaper every day. Remember words t 84 content, in which these words may appear repeatedly. Once they appear several times, you will remember them easily. Don’t look up e 85 unknown word in your dictionary. You can try to guess the meaning between
sentences. Keep reading, and you will become familiar with the words a 86 you read them several times in different passages.
Reading English newspaper makes us knowledgeable. It can not only help us know what is happening in the world but also improve our language. Thus you can make your English learning s 87 .
D. Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题)（12分）
A bookstore chain “Popular Bookmall” introduced their special style of book distribution (分销) in Shanghai back in November. This experimental store offers books at very low prices, and there is no staff to require customers to pay before taking books away. Sounds like a book lover’s paradise!
Popular Bookmall had already set up such a shop in Nanjing. The organizers of the Nanjing store report that it was a great success; enough customers voluntarily paid for their books. But most older “honesty stores” in China did not receive enough honest customers. For example, a self-service restaurant opened in Fujian province years ago. It allowed customers to pay whatever they chose, but about one-fifth of customers paid nothing. The organizers of the “honesty stores” say that their goal is to encourage people in China to remember how important honesty is.
Many Chinese are worried about dishonesty in China. Even at Popular Bookmall, not everybody chose to pay for their books. Is it a good way to solve it by law? Maybe not. We should listen to our conscience (良心). This has deep roots in Chinese culture. Confucius (孔子) taught Chinese to be conscientious and honest.
But there is also a great rational (理性的) reason for “honesty stores” : the more honest people there are in society, the more reasons we have to trust others. And if people trusted each other, they’d be more willing to share. For example, in a “sharing economy”, we do not have to think about saving or spending money all the time. We should try to help other people. In brief, society is built on trust, not only trade (商业).
88. What is the special style of book distribution in “Popular Bookmall”?

89. “Popular Bookmall” in Nanjing was a great success, wasn’t it?

90. Why did organizers open many “honesty stores” in China?

"A garden sale" is a popular activity in America. When people do not want their old books or clothes, they collect them and sell them in the garden outside their home. Sometimes it takes place in a garage where cars are parked, so it is also called a "garage sale". "A garden sale" doesn't have to be huge. One family, or even one person, can hold "a garden sale". They may publish the news of the sale in a local newspaper. Some families also put signs on nearby streets to direct people to their house. And, as simple as that, they have a garden sale. For people with little money, garden sales are a good way to find useful things for their family. They can buy their kid a toy car or a football at a very low price. Other people go there to find something special for their collection, like stamps and old money. Businessmen also go to garden sales. They may find a beautiful old carpet. After it is repaired, it will be worth a lot of money. Garden sales are an important part of American's lives. They are fun and help protect the environment. Old things find new homes, so they are not thrown away. .

If you are sitting at a desk, writing an article, stop for a moment and think: Could a robot or machine do this job better? The answer might be yes. Here are three jobs that robots are likely to take the place of in the coming future. Believe it or not, writers are among them. Many of the news articles you've read over the last few years might have been written by software. Some of the world's most famous magazines such as Forbes(福布斯), for example, regularly run computer-written articles. Does this mean we'll see a future with no human writers? Well, it could be. Drivers are also probably less needed, because driverless cars are here. And they are being tested in a few U. S. cities. They're better than human drivers in some ways: They don't have blind spots, they don't get sleepy and they don't get distracted. So driverless cars seem to provide a safer and cheaper performance. Cashier seems like a clear example of an occupation that a robot machine can also take the place of. Today, many supermarkets and department stores have cashiers with self-checkouts. It's said that the number of self-checkout machines may be as high as 335,000 by 2020. They do help the check-out lines move quickly although they have some problems.

【范文】
In real life, there are many people who have trouble finding themselves. So I’m not an exception. For me, worry seems to be a habit, which has been a personal habit I’d like to change. To tell the truth, I often feel tired. In fact, I am not so unlucky, but my inner sadness, and there is a one-sided understanding of life. A wise man, even in a troubled environment, often finds pleasure in himself. There is no denying that I have to find the reason to get rid of the bad habit before it destroys me.
To get rid of a bad habit, it is important that I first get to know how harmful the habit really is. Take the habit of worry as an example. Obviously, worry is harmful to my health. It can result in anxiety and nervousness. Besides, worry is a waste of time. A depressed person spends almost as much time a day as I can thinking about some unnecessary little things. Since I can realize the danger and waste, it is likely that I may stop worrying slowly. To get rid of a bad habit, it is essential that I also have a strong will. Where there is a will, there is a way. I believe I am able to change this bad habit in the near future.
