He liked it very much and hoped to live a quiet life in it.However, to his great surprise, many tourists came to see his villa in summer holidays, for it was the most beautiful building in the village. From morning to night there were tourists outside the villa. They kept looking into the rooms through the windows and many of them even went into Mr. Miller's garden.This was too much for Mr. Miller. He decided to drive the visitors away.He put a notice on the window. The notice said: "If you want to satisfy your curiosity(好奇心), come in and look around. Price: twenty dollars." Mr. Miller thought the visitors would stop coming, but he was wrong. More and more visitors came and he had to spend every day showing them around his house."I came here to relax after retirement, not to work as a guide." he said angrily. In the end, he sold the house and moved away.39. Mr. Miller 's house was ________that many tourists came to see it.A. so smallB. so bigC. so quietD. so beautiful40.

At last Mr. Miller had to sell his villa because ________.A. he did not like it at allB. he could not work as a guideC. he made enough moneyD. he could not live a quiet life in itC“How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the USA greet each other. But “How are you” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t need an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “ Fine”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reaso n is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?” the other person might think, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong…” But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.People also don’t say exactly what they are t hinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, man y talks over the phone finish when one person says “I ha ve to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse “Someone’s at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuses might be real, or not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people don’t say exactly w hat they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s part of the rule of the game of language.42. When a person in America asks “How are you?” he or she wants to hear “________”.A. How are you?B. HelloC. FineD. I’m not sure.43. When a person says “Something is burning on the stove.” the person may be ________.A. h urting someone’s feelingsB. feeling illC. giving an excuseD. not good at cooking44. The rule of the game of language is probably “________”.A. Always say what you meanB. Never tell the truthC. Never say exactly what you’re thinkingD. Always be polite to the listenersD1. Where are the rainforests?Rainforests cover six per cent of the Earth’s surface. There are rainforests in many parts of the world but the biggest forests are in South America, Africa and South East Asia. There aren’t any rainforests in Europe or North America.2. What’s in the rainforests?About 75% of all the types of animals that we know come from rainforests. Thousands and thousands of animals live in rainforests. There are many very beautiful birds, insects and r eptiles. Many of them live in the trees, more than 30 meters from the ground. There are also thousands of different plants—and lots of tall trees! It is always hot in a rainforest and the ground is always wet. It is also dark.3. Why are the rainforests important?The rainforests are very important for us. W e need them! The trees and other plants in the forest help to make the air that we breathe. They give us wood, rubber, fruits and many of our medicines.4.Unluckily, in many places, the rainforests are in danger. For example, many years ago there was a large rainforest in Java. There were thousands of different plants and animals in the forest, but now there is nothing. People cut down the trees because they wanted to grow rice. Many animals lived in the rainforest. Some of them went to other parts of Java but many of them disappeared forever. The same thing is happening now in many other parts of the world. The rainforests are in danger.45. According to Paragraph 1, we can’t find rainforests _____________.A. In North America.B. In South America.C. In Africa.D. In Asia.46. Which of the following belongs to a kind of “reptile”?A. An Eagle.B. A snake.C. A bee.D. A butterfly.47. Which might be the best title for Paragraph 4?A.

As a teacher, I encourage my students to use the Internet. In class those students who surf the Internet understand lessons better than the others. Besides, people can use the Internet to write letters or stories and send emails. Many students communicate with their friends online. You can also make friends by chatting on QQ.

When the weekend begins in Japan on Friday evening, children in Scotland are ______.A. having lessonsB. sleepingC. watching TVD. playing gamesBReading is the key to school success and, like any skill, it takes practice. A child learns to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. An excellent sportsman practices until he can play quickly, correctly and without thinking. Educators call it "automaticity (自动性)".A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and finding the meaning of the words. With practice, he stumbles less and less, reading by the phrase (短语). With automaticity, he doesn't have to think about the meaning of words, so he can give all his attention to the meaning of the text.It can begin as early as first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossmanof Northwestern University found that automatic readers in the first grade not only read almost three times as fast as the others, but also got better results in exams.According to Rossman, the key to automaticity is the amount (数量) of time a child spends reading, not his IQ. Any child who spends at least 3.5 to 4 hours a week reading books, magazines or newspapers will probably reach automaticity. It can happen if a child turns off TV just one night for reading at home.You can test yourself by reading something new which is suitable (适合) for your level. If you read aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, you probably are an automatic reader. If you read brokenly, one word at a time, without expression or meaning, you need more practice.39. “Reading is the key to school success” means that reading _______.A. helps school develop fasterB. is a key to a successful schoolC. helps students go to a key schoolD. can improve students’ learning results40.

IQ is the key to the AutomaticityB. TV is Bad for Children’s ReadingC. Automaticity Needs a Lot of PracticeD. Automatic Readers Must Be SuccessfulCAll big cities are quite similar (相似的). Living in a modern Asian city is not very different from living in an American city. But it is different from living on farms however.In many parts of the world farmers and their families live in villages or towns. In the United States, however each family lives on its own fields and often can't see any neighbor. Instead of traveling from a village to the fields every morning. American farmers stay on their land all the week. They travel to the nearest town on Saturdays for shopping or on Sundays for church. The children ride on horses to large schools which serve all of the farm families living in the area. In some areas there are some small schools serving a few families and the children walk to school.Of course life keeps changing for everyone including farmers. Today there are cars good roads radios and television sets. And of course there are modern machines for faming now. All of these there are modern machines for farming now. All of these have changed farmers’ life.Before, farming in America was often a lonely way of living for a long time. Farmers had to deal with their own problems, instead of getting help from others. They learned to try new ways, and thought of their own ideas instead of following old ways.43. Where do the farmers live in the United States?A. VillagesB. TownsC. BuildingsD. Fields44.
