You can find the green dish anywhere from restaurants to h 1 in summer.Most Chinese people like it so much. Nowadays even Americans are trying it. According to New York Times, some restaurants in New York have added smashed cucumber salad to their m 2 . Why is this dish becoming so popular? One reason is the special flavor(味道) it t 3 .Smashed cucumbers hold onto(锁住)flavors and seasonings(调料) more than sliced cucumbers."Just changing the way you break down an ingredient(原味)...changes the way it feels and tastes. It's cool." said Danny Bowien, the g 4 manager at a New York restaurant.How the dish is p 5 also interests people. It takes only five minutes to make the salad. The cook smashes fresh cucumbers with the flat side of a knife. The strong smash makes the cucumbers different s 6 and sizes. Then, any seasonings can be added.

Only real things and events can fully show and explain i 99 beauty. In China, red is m 100 than just a colour. China Red is beyond description and it is right here in China waiting for you to feel, to explore.FHow do you keep confident when the world treats you badly?

The answer might be tea.Thousands of years ago, Chinese people made this special drink.Today, it is part of people's daily lives not only in China, but also in the rest of the world.In 2019, the United Nations announced May 21 to be International Tea Day.The purpose is to remind people of tea's value.The cultural value of tea is in old traditions and daily habits.In China, people use best--quality tea when receiving important guests.British people are well-known for their afternoon tea, while in Russia, the beautiful teapot has become a symbol of Russian culture.The more people keep drinking tea as a habit and tradition, the more economically(在经济上) important tea becomes. According to Xinhua, China comes first in the world in total tea-planting area and produces the most tea every year.About 115 million Chinese people work in this rapidly growing industry.In many poor areas, people live on tea industry.To attract more customers, tea companies are trying to give the old drink a new look.The Chinese tea brand Xiao Guan Tea uses fashionable designs to make its tea more attractive.Hey Tea, a Guangdong based brand(品牌) that has received lots of clicks online, has won over many young tea drinkers with its special taste.It does seem that a small cup of tea connects everything —farmers and customers, tradition and fashion.Tea is also of value in keeping people healthy.Tea leaves can help lower the risk of cancer and heart disease.What's more, tea helps us lose weight and keeps our mind clear.But doctors advise that we should not drink too much tea.Otherwise, we might not fall asleep at night, as tea can make us excited.38.When is International Tea Day according to the text?A.On March 20.B.On March 21.C.On May 20.D.On May 21.39.The sentence “In Japan, tea-serving has developed into a kind of art known as Chado.”canmost probably be put at the end of_________.A.Paragraph 2 B.Paragraph 3 C.Paragraph 4 D.Paragraph 5 40.It can be learned from the text that_________.A.Russia is famous for its afternoon teaB.China has the largest tea-planting areaC.tea keeps us away from all diseasesD.Hey Tea is successful because of its look41.The purpose of writing this text is to_________.A.encourage us to buy and drink more teaB.tell us tea is the oldest drink in the worldC.describe how important tea is in many waysD.show how Chinese people made tea popular(D)Why are dogs our best friends? Maybe because they can understand our words much better than we think, according to a study in Hungary. The study shows that dogs understand not only what we say, but also how we say it. “The results are very exciting and surprising,” says Attila Andics, the lead researcher from a University in Budapest.For the study, the researchers first trained 13 dogs for months. The dogs had to sit quietly inside machines so that the researchers could check their brain activity. Then the researchers put headphones on dogs and played people's voices to them. There were four different voices. Some were positive words, such as “well done”. Some were negative words like “not good”. The words were also in different tones(音调). Some were positive, some were neutral(中立的), and some were negative.Brain scans(扫描) showed the dogs could recognize words, as well as the tone of words, much like people do. The positive words with a positive tone brought the strongest activity in their brains' reward centers (反应中枢). “It shows that for dogs, a nice phrase can work very well as a reward, but it works best if both words and tones match,” said Andics.They also found that dogs deal with meaningful words with the left side of the brain and tones with the right. People's brains work in the same way.Andics said it gave us a new understanding of the language. That is to say, not only humans understand the meaning in words, but also other species(物种) do too.42. For the study, researchers did all of the following EXCEPT_________.A. they made dogs sit inside machinesB. they played with the dogsC. they scanned the dogs' brains.D. they played people's voices to them43. The third paragraph mainly tells us_________.A. the results of the studyB. the process of the studyC. the reasons of the studyD. the advantages of the study44. For both dogs and humans, which side of brain deals with tones?A. Left side for both dogs and humans.B. Left side for dogs and right side for humans.C. Right side for both dogs and humans.D. Right side for dogs and left side for humans.45. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Dogs are humans' best friends.B. Dogs are talented in learning humans' language.C. Dogs can understand the meaning in words.D. Dogs can also learn humans' language.四、词汇(46-50每小题2分,51-60每小题1分,计20分)A) 选用方框内的单词或词组填空,其中有一个单词或词组是多余的。

Why do some of the things around us look red, some green, others blue?Colours are really made by reflected (反射) light. We see colour because most of the things reflect light. Something is red, for it reflects most of the red light. In the same way, if something is green, it reflects most of the green light. If something reflects all light, it is white. If it doesn’t reflect any light, it is black.Some of the light is reflected and some is taken in (吸收) and turned into heat. The darker the colour is, the less light is reflected, the more light is taken in. So dark-coloured clothes are warmer in the sun than light-coloured clothes.( ) 1. When something reflects light, we can _______ .A. see its colourB. see its heatC. not see its colourD. see nothing( ) 2. The dark-coloured clothes are warm because _________ is taken in.A. more lightB. less lightC. more colourD. less colour( ) 3. In summer ________ make people feel cool.A. dark-coloured clothesB. red-coloured clothesC. green-coloured clothesD. light-coloured clothesBIt is said that people born under different star signs have different characteristics. Here are four people born under different star signs.Taurus (金牛座)Tom, an old man from England, has enough money to buy anything, but he is not willing to spend money on something he needs and wants. He has few friends and an old dog is his only partner. He is really tightfisted and lonely.Gemini (双子座)Jack, born on 9th June, is a 16-year-old English boy. “A Gemini is a curious and clever person, and I am just this kind of person,” he said. My lucky colour is orange. I believe that my star sign decides what will happen to me in my life.Cancer (巨蟹座)Mary was born on 1st July. She loves her family and cooking is her favourite. The French girl cares about nothing but business. She is hard-working.Virgo (处女座)Lucy was born on 23rd August and is modest. The girl from Australia is studying in a college(大学).

Gemini.C. Cancer.D. Virgo.( ) 6. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “tightfisted” in Chinese?A. 富裕的B. 吝啬的C. 奢侈的D. 豁达的CDo you know why different animals or pests(害虫)have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Some birds like eating locusts, but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal l ife, you’ll find the main use of colouring is protecting themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the tree.Have you ever noticed an even more strange act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over, the enemies cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it isn’t strong at all.( ) 7. From the passage we can learn that locusts _______.A. are small animalsB. are easily found by birdsC. are dangerous to their enemiesD. change their colours to protect themselves( ) 8. Bears and lions can keep safe because they_______.A. have the colours much like the treesB. move quicklyC. like brown and grey coloursD. live in forests( ) 9. Why can the fish mentioned in the last paragraph live up to now?A. Because it is very strong.B. Because the liquid it sends out can help it get away from its enemies.C. Because the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies.D. Because it swims faster than any other fish.( ) 10. Which is the best title for this passage?A. The Change of Colours for Animals and PestsB. Colours of Different Animals and PestsC. The Main Use of Colours for Animals and PestsD. Some Animals and PestsDEveryone has got two personalities — the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control yourself, but when you’re asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you.

The important position that best shows your secret personality isthe one that you go to sleep.If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don’t like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings.

You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the way it is. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You’re shy and you don’t usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You’re usuall y careful.

He often took the bus from his home to the downtown area. One day, he went home by bus as usual. When he sat down, he discovered that the driver had given him twenty extra pence. As he 15 what to do, he thought to himself, “You’d better give the twenty pence back. It would be 16 to keep it.” Then he thought, “Oh forget it, it’s only twenty pence. Who would worry about so little 17 ? Also, the bus company already gets too much money; they will never miss it. 18 it as a gift from God, and keep quiet.”When his stop came, the priest stopped at the door for a moment, then he handed the twenty pence back to the driver and said, “Here, you gave me too much change.”The driver with a smile replied, “Aren't you the new priest in this area? I’m thinking about going to your church (教堂). I just wanted to see what you would doif I gave you too much 19 .”When the young priest got 20 the bus, his knees became weak and soft. He had to hold the nearest tree for 21 , and looked up to the sky and said loudly, “Oh, God. I almost 22 myself for twenty pence!”We may never see what influence our 23 have on people.

As years went by, I wanted to get a new one, and my father agreed. We went to many stores and looked at many flyers (小广告). At last we bought an HP computer.During the first week, I noticed that our computer had some problems. I tried to fix it, but failed. Finally I had to phone the HP company. After five hours’hard work, the computer still did not work. My dad didn’t have a choice but to return the whole thing.A few days later, we decided that I should go on the internet and order some parts to build a new computer by myself.It was not an easy thing for me to deal with it, but in the end I finished. From these setbacks (挫折), I have learned, and now believe if the computer that I bought from the store didn’t have problems, then I would not learn how to build a new one. Even though I spent lots of time on it, I know it wasn’t a waste of time.I now have a self-built computer, and I am very pleased.25. The writer wanted to have a new computer because __________.A. he has much moneyB. the one he had was cheapC. his dad would like toD. the first one was too old26. __________, they telephoned the HP computer company.A. Before they bought the HP computerB. A week after they bought the computerC. A week before they bought the computerD. A few days before they bought the computer27. Which of the following is true according to this passage?A. The HP computer was very cheap.B. The writer built a new computer by himself at last.C. The HP company managed to mend the computer at last.D. Dad didn’t like the newly-built computer at all.BSometimes, kids feel that they don’t like sports because they may not understand how to play them or they haven’t had much practice doing them. Sports can seem complicated because of all the rules and special equipment (设备). Even the fields and courts they are played on come in different shapes and sizes and have confusing – looking (令人困惑的) lines drawn on them.People spend many years learning about their favorite sports and practicing how to do them well. So don’t feel bad if you don’t know the difference between a “corner kick” and a “goal kick” in soccer. If you want to learn more about a sport, you might ask your mum or dad about the programmes that introduce kids to new sports. These may be better than just joining a team that starts playing games right away without much explaining first.Gym class and programmes at school can also be a way to try new sports with a mix of kids. Another way to learn about a sport is to watch instructional videos or DVDs or check out library books that explain the rules and offer advice for kids to learn to play them.If you have an older friend or family member who’s good at a sport, you might ask him or her to help you practice. Some sports are just good to understand, even if you never want to play on a competitive team. For example, you might play softball or volleyball, just for fun, at a summer picnic.28. Which would be the best title for this passage?A. Sports Are Good for YouB. What Sport Is Most Suitable for YouC. Learning about SportsD. How and Where to Have Sports29. The underlined word “complicated” in the first paragraph probably means “___________”.A. interestingB. harmfulC. easyD. difficult30. According to the writer, it is __________ for / of you not to be able to tellthe difference between a “corner kick” and a “goal kick” in soccer.A. naturalB. impossibleC. funnyD. foolishCCan dogs and cats get along well in the same home? People who are thinking about getting a dog as a friend for their cat are worried that they will fight. A recent research has found that if the cat is taken back home before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along swimmingly. In two-thirds of the homes cats and dogs have a good relationship.However, it wasn’t all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in 25% of the homes, while aggression (侵略,好斗) and fighting were found in 10% of the homes. One reason for this is probably that some of their body languages are just different. For example, when a cat turns its head away it means aggression, while a dog doing the same means submission (顺从).In homes with cats and dogs living in peace, researchers found a surprising behavior. They are learning how to talk each other’s language. It is a surprise that cats can learn how to talk “Dog”, and dogs can learn how to talk “Cat”.What’s interesting is that both cats and dogs have appeared to become smarter. They can learn to read each other’s body languages, suggesting that the two may have more in common than was expected. Once familiar with each other’s body language, cats and dogs can play together, and enjoy sleeping together on the sofa.The importance of this research on cats and dogs may go beyond pets –to people who don’t get along well, including neighbors, workmates, and even countries. If cats and dogs can learn to get along, surely people have a good chance.31.

Floods and earthquakes come suddenly. Wars can hurt or kill. Successful communication can sometimes mean the difference between life and death.Meet French NGO Telecoms Sans Frontiers (Telecommunications Without Borders (边际)). Its goal is to use mobile communicat ion technology (技术) to help people in need. TSF began in 1998. First, they opened their main base (总部) in France. Then in 2003, they started another base in Nicaragua. The next year they opened their Thailand base. Now if a disaster hits anywhere in the world, TSF is ready. They can send workers to a disaster area to set up communication systems within 24 hours.Once TSF arrives at a disaster area, they set up telephone connections (连接点)and Internet service. They share these services with other international helpers on the scene such as the UN or UNICEF. Mobile communication helps other volunteers d o their jobs better.TSF also offers three-minute phone calls to local people who need to contact their loved ones. These communications can allow people to get together again after being separated (分开). Often the callers are moved to tears after speaking to a relative found to be still alive. Then the families can decide on a safe course of action for their family members.Since 1998, TSF has helped thousands of people in many countries. Most of the TSF workers does not get paid with money, but the satisfaction(满足)of helping others and changing lives is often a great reward.34.
