easily.Could a computer work like a brain?Could it"talk"to other computers?There was an Internet already but it was difficult to use.In 1989,Tim Berners﹣Lee invented the World Wide Web(WWW) all by

opened in Manchester in1852.It's firstlibrarian was a man called Edward Edwards,Edwards attended the library'sopening ceremony and two famous writers called Charles Dickens and WilliamThackeray were there too.How to Join aLibraryTo join a library,go to your local library and fill in a form.you'll receive a library card which is needed when using library services.Mobile LibrariesNot everyone can get a library.Some people live far away from towns and cities.Other people find it difficult to go out because they have an illness or a disability.Thanks to mobile libraries,these people can still borrow books.Unlike most libraries,which store books in buildings,mobile libraries usually keep their books in a mini﹣bus.The back of the mini﹣bus has shelves for the books,and it is big enough for borrowers to step inside and look around.A driver takes the mini﹣bus to a certain place at a certain time,so people know when to expect it.They can then return their books and borrow some more.All

speaking on the phone,but they can hear you.So,the way you speak is especially important.In fact,researchers have calculated that 80% of communication over the phone is through your tone of voice; and only 20% is from the words you use.Here are our top tips on how to speak over the phone.1.Facial ExpressionsYour facial expression can influence your voice.For example,if you smile,your voice will sound warm and friendly,just the opposite,if you have an angry look on your face,it can make you sound unpleasant.2.VolumeIf you speak too loudly,you could sound angry.And if you speak too softly,it'll be difficult to hear you.So,speak loudly enough to be heard clearly,but not so loud that you're shouting.3.PaceThe pace of your voice is how quickly you speak.And this can show how you feel.For example,an angry person might speak faster than normal.Or a downhearted person might speak very slowly.Try speaking a little more slowly than normal.This will make you sound confident,and it'll make it easier for the other person to understand you.4.GesturesGesturing can influence the tone of your voice.When you gesture,you bring more air into the lungs,which can make your voice sound warmer.Gestures are also useful to help you stress the right words or even find the words you need.The best thing about gesturing during a phone call is that no one can see what you're doing,so you can gesture as wildly as you like!5.MovementIf you're feeling nervous,stand up and move around.It will reduce the nervousness in your body and help your voice to sound more confident.6.Pauses (停顿)Using pauses every now and then can help you to slow down.This will make you sound more confident and in control.Also,if you pause after giving some new information,it'll give the other person time to understand it.At the same time,listen to how the other person uses pauses.They could tell you something about the speaker's feeling.For example,when a speaker is really angry,he might use pauses and says,"I…am…so…angry…"41.How much of telephone communication is from the words you use?A.20%.B.40%.C.60%.D.80%.42.What can people do to reduce their nervousness on the phone?A.Gesture wildly.B.Move around.C.Raise their voices.D.Make facial expressions.43.How can pauses help people talk on the phone?A.The speaker can show he is friendly.B.The speaker can tell more information.C.The listener will feel confident and in control.D.The listener will have time to understand the words.44.What is the passage mainly about?A.How to control the speed of your speech.B.Different good ways of talking on the phone.C.Reasons of making gestures while talking.D.How to improve communication among friends.45.What is the writer's opinion about telephone talk?A.Your voice on the phone will show what you're feeling.B.Using too many pauses while talking will annoy others.C.Speaking loudly makes it easier for others to understand you.D.The words you use are more important than the way you speak.第二节阅读填空阅读短文及文后A~E选项,选出可以填入46~50各题空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.46.In the middle of my home country there are very large places.They are hot and dry land called deserts.(46) Families live a long way from

It can find your position in 20 meters. A GPS can’t start your car, but at least you will know where you are.GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put it in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting(围绕) the earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations. They are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate(精准). There are also many new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again.【1】 With the help of GPS, people ______.A.can’t be lost in a new cityB.can’t find thei r way in different countriesC.can start the carD.can learn about the culture of an unknown place【2】 GPS means ___________in ChineseA.球状卫星B.卫星地点C.全球卫星定位系统D.接收器【3】______is not the part to the Global Positioning System.A.ground stations B.satellitesC.receivers D.a mobile【4】 Maybe in the future the GPS will be _________.A.cheaper than mobile phones B.as common as watches.C.having few new uses D.more accurate than now.【5】.

Years ago, I celebrated my 40th birthday with friends in a two-floor restaurant. Many arrived earlier and waited outside the restaurant. As I was on the roadside, a homeless man came near to me and 16 money. I let him know I didn’t have any 17 with me. With a quiet smile on his face, he moved on.Just then a friend arrived and called out, “Happy Birthday!” Hearing this, the man turned and asked, “Hey, man, it’s your birthday?” “Yes,” I said. He 18 , smiled and said, “Happy Birthday!” I was not completely ready for what happened next. He took out a dollar from his 19 bag, and gave it to me, saying, “Here man, take this. Happy Birthday!” That’s 20 . I thought he was making a joke!Although I was 21 deeply by his generosity(慷慨), accepting money from a homeless man was embarrassing for me. I felt very uncomfortable. So I replied, “Thanks, but…” Looking directly into my eyes, he said, “God is so good to me. Every night, I always end up with a place to 22 and enough food to eat. Please take this.” I held out my 23 —without thinking twice, saying, “Thank you.”This was one of my 24 life lessons—however poor we may feel, we always have something valuable to share with others. From then on, I often helped people in need and treated everyone with kindness and 25 , spreading love and joy everywhere I went.16.A.asked for B.looked for C.paid for D.cared for17.A.gift B.cash C.clothes D.food18.A.walked down B.walked along C.walked back D.walked ahead19.A.dirty B.tidy C.fashionable D.costly20.A.enjoyable B.lucky C.impolite D.amazing21.A.proud B.moved C.excited D.surprised22.A.go B.hope C.sleep D.play23.A.hand B.arms C.legs D.hat24.A.hardest B.greatest C.longest D.worst25.A.truth B.warmth C.achievement D.power三、阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节阅读理解(共15小题,每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握大意,然后从26-40各题所给的A、B、C、D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

They added up to two dollars and six and a quarter cents.The bill was paid, and the woman was satisfied. But the young storekeeper, not feeling quite sure about his calculations(计算), added up the things again. To his surprise, he found that it should have been but two dollars.“I've made her pay six and a quarter cents more,” said young Abe, upset.It was an unimportant thing, and many salespersons would forget it, but Abe was too careful for that.The money must be paid back, he decided.At night, he closed the store and walked to the home of his customer. He explained the matter, paid over the six and a quarter cents, and returned satisfied.Here is another story of young Lincoln's strict honesty. A woman entered the store and asked for half a pound of tea. The young man weighed it out. This was the last sale of the day.The next morning, when beginning his duties, Abe discovered a four-ounce weight on the scales(磅砰). It flashed upon him at once that he had used this in the sale last night, and so, of course, given his customer short weight. Many people would not have been much worried by this discovery. But Abe weighed out four ounces of the tea, shut up the store, and carried it to the customer. I think that the name, so often given in late times to President Lincoln, of “Honest Old Abe", was well deserved(应得的).(1)What did Abraham Lincoln use to he when he was young according to the passage?A.A teacher.B.A farmer.C.A storekeeper.D.A president.(2)When young Abe found he made a wrong calculation, he ________.A.tried to forget itB.paid over the moneyC.felt it was unimportantD.gave hack the short weight(3)When did he find his mistake in the second story?A.At the end of that day.B.In the middle of that day.C.At the end of the next day.D.At the beginning of the next day.(4)What can we know from the second story?A.Abe wasn't worried by this discovery.B.Abe didn't notice he put a four-ounce weight on the scales.C.Abe gave the customer enough weight at last.D.Abe gave his customer short weight on purpose.(5)We can know that Abe was ________ from the passage.A.easy to get worriedB.confident but carelessC.honest and responsibleD.funny but well behaved13.阅读理解Bike Rentals (租赁)(1)What is Arcadian Shop?A.A shop where people can buy bikes.B.A shop where people can rent bikes.C.A shop where people can mend bikes.D.A shop where people can paint bikes.(2)Where is Alexanderplatz?A.At the train station.B.Under the TV tower.C.In the parking area.D.Near the Zoo entrance.(3)When can we rent a bike?A.At 6:30.B.At 8:00.C.At 14:00.D.At 21:00.(4)How much is it if you keep the bike for two days?A.$7.B.$10.C.$12.D.$22.(5)Which statement is TRUE?A.If you want to rent bikes, you can call 650-968-3575.B.If you live near our shop, we offer some deliveries for free.C.If you rent more than one hike, you can save money for the second one.D.If you live outside of the shop's delivery area, you should pay $8 for delivery.14.阅读理解Many kids help parents to do chores such as washing the dishes, cleaning the floors and taking out the trash in the house. In return, some kids get money or other rewards from their parents, such as 20 minutes to play computer games.But some people do not think that kids should get rewards(奖赏) for doing chores. One of them is Susie Walton, a parenting educator. She believes that if kids get rewards, they will think that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. For example, kids won't sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will clean the floor if their parents reward them for it. “Every house is a team effort,” Susie said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities to keep our home clean.Other people have different opinions. They believe that money or other rewards can motivate kids to do more chores. It also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. Now, there are also apps(应用软件) that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and digital gifts that can be used either online or in the real world. With the Chore Monster app, kids earn digital points after doing chores. Kids can exchange their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards," says Chris Bergman, founder of Chore Monster. “Kids need positive(积极的) power to make them do chores.What do you think? Should kids be rewarded for doing chores? Or should kids help out around their homes without getting anything in return?Write a 200-word response. Send it to tfkasks4you@. Your response may be published in Time For Kids. Please include your grade and contact information of your parent or teacher if you want your response to be published. The deadline for responding is February 18. (1)How does the author start the passage?A.By giving some facts.B.By listing some opinions.C.By comparing different views.D.By showing his own experiences.(2)Which of the following is Susie Walton's opinion?A.Don't ask kids to do housework.B.Don't reward kids for doing anything.C.Don't give kids rewards for doing chores.D.Don't allow kids to play computer games.(3)What's Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.How to earn money by doing chores.B.The apps that encourage kids to do chores.C.How to exchange their points for real rewards.D.The advantage of rewarding kids for doing chores.(4)What's the meaning of the underlined word “motivate” in the passage?A.remindB.encourageC.preventD.warn(5)What is the purpose of writing the text?A.To call on readers to do more chores.B.To tell readers of two different opinions.C.To invite readers to express their opinions.D.To show the author's views about doing chores.四.任务型阅读15.任务型阅读You may think that inventions are far away from your everyday life. But in fact, almost everyone can invent. It's just that they do not realize that their idea could be the start of an invention. Once inventors see their ideas have some practical value, they don't let them run away.For example, the inventors of the dishwasher, American Josephine Cochrane, loved to give dinner parties. But she found it took too long to wash her dishes by hand. She decided that a machine could do the job faster. So, in 1886, she began to make one for herself.Here are the steps to create inventions. The first and most important step is to find the problem. Start by looking at what is wrong with things you see now and ask people around if they remember ever saying, “I wish someone would invent something for...” Then you might notice situations(情况) or things in need of improvement. The next step is to think about possible solutions. An invention is a new way of solving a problem. So think of many and unusual ways. You can often come up with a solution to a problem by looking at it from a different side.The hardest part of inventing is coming up with a problem and finding a solution. Once you have an idea, you can always get help building your invention. This problem-solving technique can also work in your everyday lives. So, why not try it in your studies, in your relationship with others, or even in the way you look at the world?(1)Josephine Cochrane found it took too long to wash her dishes ________.(2)用英语表达文中画线单词one所指代的内容:________(3)找出并写下第三段的主题句:________(4)What is the hardest part of inventing?________(5)将文中画线句子译成汉语:________五.短文填空16.根据短文内容及所给提示, 补全文中单词或用所给单词的正确形式填空。
