All stations now have touch-screen maps. In some stations, people can also see traditional Chinese culture. For example, on the walls of a few stations of Line 8, there are some pictures of blue and white porcelain(青花瓷).Stockholm, SwedenThe first subway line for Stockholm was opened in 1950. The Stockholm Subway is well-known for its decoration of the stations. It is called the longest art gallery-in the world. Over 90 per cent of its stations are decorated with paintings.

Besides his famous stories, he also wrote many influential articles about the living conditions of Chinese people.Born in 1881 to a wealthy family, Lu Xun had a happy childhood In 1893, however, his grandfather, a senor government official,was put into prison for taking money. At the same time, Ws father became seriously ill. From that time on,his family was longer accepted by their relatives and friends. These early experiences greatly influenced his writing.By the time Lu Xun arrived in Nanjing to study at university in 1899, he already believed that Chinese society had to change and become modern. In 1902 he went study in Japan. There, he began writing articles for several Chinese student magazines. He showed a gift for writing and translating and he even wrote several books, although none was popular. He returned to China in 1909 because he was in need of money.After working for several years as a teacher in Beijing , Lu Xun again returned to writing. In 1918, he wrote his famous short story Diary of a Madman. It was the first Chinese novel published using the everyday language that people spoke, which helped make it a great success.This, together with his novel The True Story of Ah Q (1921), made Lu Xun a leading Chinese writer.Although successful,Lu Xun still worried greatly about China’s future. In 1927,he moved to Shanghai and gave up writing stories in order to devote himself to what he called “pen warfare”. He now only wrote articles which called on the people to fight against the government. For this,the government stopped him form publishing any more books. He forced to write his articles using false names.Since his death in 1936, Lu Xun’s importance and influence have grown. Today, many of his writings are included in school textbooks and his works are read by millions around the world. ( )6.

For over 100 years,libraries have played an important role in Americans’ education. But how are these book-filled buildings changing with the times? You may be surprised to find out.Benjamin Franklin famously founded(创建)America’s first lending library in 1731. But the public library system got its biggest development in the American history in the late 1800’s. Businessman Andrew Carnegie donated millions of dollars to help build free public libraries across the country. Between 1886 and 1919,Carnegie’s donations helped build 1,679 new libraries.Carnegie believed that libraries could offer the chances to Americans young and old. He knew that the more libraries there were, the more people would have opportunities to read and use books, speeches and news.If you can easily find a public library in your community(社区),you’ll get more chances. After all, the United States has 9,225 public libraries. Today, libraries keep growing. Seven tenthsof the libraries have free Internet. It provides much more information and opportunities to ask for jobs online.Libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. The new program Read! Build! Play! adds reading into playtime. As kids listen to a book that is being read aloud, they lose Legos(乐高积木)to build images (图像)from the story happily. Today’s libraries are always looking for creative programs to bring people into the library. Benjamin Franklin once said,“The doors of wisdom(智慧)are never shut.”As long as the doors of public libraries are open, what he said is most certainly correct!( )11. Benjamin Franklin founded the first lending library in ______.A. 1731B. 1800C. 1886.D.1919( )12. How many public libraries have free Internet now?A. 2767.B. 6458.C. 9225.D. 1679.( )13. The right order of the following statements is _______.①The public library system in America developed fast.②The first lending library was founded.③Libraries provide information and chances to ask for job online.④Libraries try to bring people into the library by using creative programs.A②①③④B②③④①C③④①②D①②③④( )14. The last paragraph mainly tells us _______.A.libraries have played an important role in Americans’ educationB.public libraries in the US should never close the doorsC.the writer doesn't agree with Benjamin FranklinD.libraries help people to open the doors of wisdom( )15.

All三、阅读理解(共20题; 每题2分,计40分)(A)A habit is any action that we have performed so often that it becomes something that we do almost without thinking. Some of them are thought to be bad habits. People spend countless hours and dollars each year trying to get rid of these bad habits but often fail. Why? Change is hard work and there is no shortcut to achieve it. However, there is still some advice for you to follow.First, look at why you do it. In other words, what’s the result of doing this thing? If your bad habit is shouting at people when you are unhappy or under pressure, what do you get from it? It may make you feel a little better for the moment. Or maybe you have a bad habit of leaving your homework undone. The result could be that you get more time to spend on the Internet!Next, take a look on the other hand. What are you losing because of your habit? Shouting at other people is a bad habit because it makes people around you feel bad and unhappy. Leaving your homework undone is a bad habit because you may be punished by your teacher. Having more Internet time means that you are losing the chance to learn the things that you need to learn. When you think that way, you’ll find that it’s not wise to keep your bad habit! Now it is time to make a decision. What will you choose? I’m sure you will choose to do what you think is more important.( )31. From the first paragraph we know that __________.A. a habit is a terrible thing that we can never changeB. people take countless hours and dollars to get rid of habitsC. none of the people who try to break bad habits are successfulD. though it is difficult, we can still do something about our bad habits( )32. The underlined sentence “there is no shortcut to achieve it” means that __________.A. it is not easy to get rid of bad habitsB. there is a long way and a short wayC. something dangerous may happenD. we must cut it in a short time.( )33. According to the reading, if you want to get rid of your habits, you have to __________.A. talk to others when you are in low spiritsB. know why you do what you doC. finish your homework firstD. spend less time on the Internet( )34. Which of the following does NOT happen because of a bad habit according to the reading?A. You are punished later.B. Making people around you feel unhappy.C. You feel a little better after shouting at others.D. You leave your homework at home by accident.( )35. The main purpose of this passage is to __________.A. introduce and describeB. complain and disagreeC. explain and adviseD. discuss and argue(B)Studying abroad is an amazing experience, especially when you come to Australia as an overseas( 外国的) high school student. You can have a lot of fun here, especially on holidays.There are many festivals in Australia. The most important one is obviously Christmas. Each year, the summer holidays at every high school last about two months from the beginning of December to February, which covers the Christmas time. Since it is a long holiday, most overseas students love to fly back to their home countries to spend the time with their families and friends, but a few students still stay in Australia during the holiday to get part-time jobs. It is quite easy to find a part-time job at Christmas. Students often take part in another major social activity. They go to the beach to have fun in the sunshine. The summer in Australia is from December to February, so going to the beach in December is very popular among Australians.Easter in March is another important holiday in the year. It actually combines(使联合) “Good Friday” and “Easter Monday”. Almost every shop closes on Good Friday. And people usually go to see Easter Show.The Chinese New year is not a public holiday in Australia, so every Chinese student still has to go to school to study and do his or her normal duties.( )36. Summer holidays in Australia often begin in_________.A. JulyB. SeptemberC. DecemberD. February( )37.

Students in Australia go to school_________.A. at ChristmasB. at EasterC. in the Chinese New YearD. on Easter Monday(C)One day when some government officials were rebuilding a barn(谷仓), they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out. A while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing(挤)out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts, the mice finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away immediately. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite(咬)the tail of the other.Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that he couldpull the blind one with him to escape.After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice.One serious American official said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard. “The others thought for a while and said: “That was why!”A smart French said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife.” Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense.A Japanese said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son.” Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed agreement another time.At that moment, one Chinese asked: “Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship?“Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and remained speechless. The American official, the French and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame, and did not dare to answer.In fact, the true love is not built on friendship, loyalty or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship.( )41. Neither of the two mice ran away immediately because ______.A. one was biting the otherB. the mouth of the hole was too smallC. they were not afraid of smokeD. one was trying to help the blind one( )42. “it made sense” probably means ______.A. it was correctB. it was strangeC. it was funnyD. it was sweet( )43. Why did they lower their heads in shame according to the passage?A. They did not dare to answer.B. They had mistaken the relationship of the mice.C. They regretted(后悔)driving a poor blind mouse away.D. They did not express themselves much better.( )44.

Besides his famous stories, he also wrote many influential articles about the living conditions of Chinese people.Born in 1881 to a wealthy family, Lu Xun had a happy childhood In 1893, however, his grandfather, a senor government official,was put into prison for taking money. At the same time, Ws father became seriously ill. From that time on,his family was longer accepted by their relatives and friends. These early experiences greatly influenced his writing.By the time Lu Xun arrived in Nanjing to study at university in 1899, he already believed that Chinese society had to change and become modern. In 1902 he went study in Japan. There, he began writing articles for several Chinese student magazines. He showed a gift for writing and translating and he even wrote several books, although none was popular. He returned to China in 1909 because he was in need of money.After working for several years as a teacher in Beijing , Lu Xun again returned to writing. In 1918, he wrote his famous short story Diary of a Madman. It was the first Chinese novel published using the everyday language that people spoke, which helped make it a great success.3This, together with his novel The True Story of Ah Q (1921), made Lu Xun a leading Chinese writer.Although successful,Lu Xun still worried greatly about China’s future. In 1927,he moved to Shanghai and gave up writing stories in order to devote himself to what he called “pen warfare”. He now only wrote articles which called on the people to fight against the government. For this,the government stopped him form publishing any more books. He forced to write his articles using false names.Since his death in 1936, Lu Xun’s importance and influence have grown. Today, many of his writings are included in school textbooks and his works are read by millions around the world. ( )6.

For over 100 years, libraries have played an important role in Americans’education. But how are these book-filled buildings changing with the times? You may be surprised to find out.Benjamin Franklin famously founded(创建)America’s first lending library in 1731. But the public library system got its biggest development in the American history in the late 1800’s. Businessman Andrew Carnegie donated millions of dollars to help build free public libraries across the country. Between 1886 and 1919,Carnegie’s donations helped build 1,679 new libraries.Carnegie believed that libraries could offer the chances to Americans young and old. He knew that the more libraries there were, the more people would have opportunities to read and use books, speeches and news.If you can easily find a public library in your community(社区),you’ll get more chances. After all, the United States has 9,225 public libraries. Today, libraries keep growing. Seven tenthsof the libraries have free Internet. It provides much more information and opportunities to ask for jobs online.Libraries are also teaching kids about the fun of reading. The new program Read! Build! Play! adds reading into playtime. As kids listen to a book that is being read aloud, they lose Legos(乐高积木)to build images (图像)from the story happily. Today’s libraries are always looking for creative programs to bring people into the library. Benjamin Franklin once said,“The doors of wisdom(智慧)are never shut.”As long as the doors of public libraries are open, what he said is most certainly correct!( )11.
