Dining at Hello Kitty Dreams Restaurant costsabout 160 yuan ($25) per person.Dustin and Sara from North Georgia &State University (NGCSU) of the United Statesperform Peking Opera at LiaoCheng University in East China’s Shandong Prov ince.Eighteen students from NGCSU came to China to study Chinese culture during the summervacation.Located in Miyun County north-east of Beijing, Fuling Mountain is a national-level forestreserve. As the mountain is cloudy and foggy all the year round, Fuling Mountain then beganto be called Wuling Mountain.

Instead of learning this skill, schools would be given the choice to teach keyboard typing in its place. The change shows typing skills are now more relatedthan handwriting, but experts say the move could do harm to a child’s brain development.“Most people would agree that everyone should at least be able to pick up a pen or a pencil and write a message that others can read,”said Misty Adoniou, a lecturer.“But beyond legibility（易读性）, does it matter how you form your letters when you handwrite?”She continued there was research connecting fluent（流畅的）handwriting with better written articles,“but the key isn’t the quality, form or style of the handwriting, but rather the automaticity（自动性）of th e handwriting.”Reports have also found that by the age of eight, children can already type faster than they can handwrite. But, as Misty Adoniou agreed, handwriting can play an important part in brain development.“Research shows that learning to write in cursive further improves students’ motor and visual（视觉的）skills, eye-to-handco ordination, hand and finger skills, and brain development. The physical act of handwriting also helps the memory of information and the flow（流动）of ideas.”For example, in a recent study, researchers did brain scans on five-year-olds before and after receiving different letter-learning tasks. In children who practiced writing letters by hand, the neural（神经的）activity was more improved and“aduit-like”than in those who had simply looked at letters. “Technology can encourage and support plenty of child development and educational objectives, such as physical and health、”explained Dr.Leves, “And there is a body of research supporting the idea that children learn best when they’re having fun.”But as Ms Adoniou concluded:“With so many things to do in a school day, it is hard to see why handwriting lessons continue. No matter how standardized we try to make handwriting, we all end up with our own style. Perhaps we’d do just all well to l et children find their own style.”1．Ms Adoniou probably agrees that you will write articles better when _____.A．you care less about your handwritingB．you have a special style of handwritingC．you improve the quality of handwritingD．you have different forms of handwriting2．According to Ms Adoniou, cursive handwriting _____.A．improves children’s eyesightB．makes children’s hands strongC．makes children have fewer ideasD．helps children’s brains develop better3．What is the passage mainly about _____?A．How to teach keyboard typing.B．The reasons why students drop pens.C．Some opinions on cursive handwriting.D．How to improve your own writing style.D16、Bike-sharing has swept across China, with an increasing number of people choosing bike riding instead of driving. The bike that the service company provides has GPS or Bluetooth on it, and those bikes can be easily unlocked with a smart phone and left anywhere in public. Bike-sharing allows people to borrow a bike from one place and return it at another place easily.In some cities, we can see more and more people riding this kind of sharing-bikes. It's very convenient to use the bikes if you have a smart phone. First, you have to download such an APP on your smart phone. Then what you need to do is to find a nearest bike through the APP, scan the QR code on the bike or connect your phone with the bike over a Bluetooth wireless connection. You will find the bike can be unlocked itself. Then you can enjoy your trip. What's more, the greatest advantage of bike-sharing is that you can easily find one and never worry about where to park it. The cost of riding depends on the time that you spend. Normally, every hour you ride, you need to pay one yuan. It doesn't cost so much, does it?At the same time, some people park the bikes in their own homes. Besides, some people don't value the bikes. Now service companies are trying to solve the problem like being stolen.Technology and science have changed our social lifestyles. We have to say bike-sharing brings us more convenience without doubt. And we also hope that people can not only enjoy it but also put it to good use.1．From the first paragraph, we know ________.A．bike-sharing is invented in ChinaB．sharing-bikes are used by some peopleC．most people in cities don't driveD．sharing-bikes can be borrowed anywhere2．The underlined word “scan” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________ in Chinese.A．浏览B．扫描C．审视D．细查3．If you want to use a sharing-bike, you must ________ first.A．have a smart phone and download an APPB．download an APP and pay for the tripC．unlock the bike and download an APPD．find a nearest bike and borrow it from anyone4．Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?A．Bike-sharing is very cheap.B．Sharing-bikes may be stolen.C．Sharing-bikes are easy to unlock.D．Bike-sharing is a kind of green transport.5．The passage probably comes from a ________.A．science textbook B．tourist guideC．website news report D．restaurant menuE17、ASeveral months ago, my husband and I were on an island for a long weekend with our five-year-old twin daughters.

Taiwan’s pop singer Evonne Xu is like this. If she thinks something is right, she goes out of her way to do it.“If anyone around me gets treated unfairly,” she said, “I can’t pretend not to see. I feel it’s my duty to speak out and protect their rights.” Her friends sometimes advise her not to invite trouble, but she isn’t afraid.She was born in a hospital in Texas, America, where she was the only Asia baby. A lot of people came to look at her. Shewas so pretty that she was called “Snow White”.Xu grew up with Western kids, doing the same things together. But she said her Chinese parents were much stricter than American parents. Even so, Xu did not want to lie to her parents like many kids did. “I could have told them I was going to the library to study, when in fact I was going to a party,” she said, “But it would have made me feel very bad.

Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate. Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market. Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past. Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques.I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life. "The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes a strange ticking sound. It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands. Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round people's wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control. This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves （奴隶）."Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many yearsago kings kept special slaves to tell the time. Certain men were very clever at measuring（量）the time of clay according to the beating of their own hearts. They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout tire time. So it seems that the first clocks were human beings.However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable（可靠的）ways of telling the time. They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun. They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour- glasses, and invented water-clocks. Indeed, any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past.Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home. After all, if you are going to be ruled by time, why not invest in air antique clock and perhaps make a future profit（收益）?1．According to the passage, collecting antique clocks____.A．can hardly keep the value of your savingsB．will cost much of your savingsC．may increase your wealthD．needs your bravery2．By quoting (引用) the remark of a being from another planet, the author intends to____.A．suggest human beings are controlled by a clockB．describe why clocks can rule the planet EarthC．tell readers what clocks look likeD．compare chocks to human beings3．Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time?A．Counting the beating of one's own heart.B．Making use of candles, sand and water.C．Observing shadows cast by the sun.D．Keeping slaves busy day and night.4．The underlined phrase stately homes in paragraph（段落）4 means_________.A．state-owned housesB．houses in very good conditionC．grand houses open to the publicD．houses where statesmen meet regularly5．The purpose of the passage is________.A．to introduce the culture of antique clocksB．to offer some advice on collecting antique clocksC．to compare different ways to make a future profitD．to explain convenient and reliable ways of telling timeD16、Cats’ sense of smell is very important to their health. Many cat owners have seen a cat smell the food and refuses it. Careful sniffing( 嗅) tells the cat if something is safe to eat.Cats have a pair of vomeronasal organs(犁鼻器) on the roof of the mouth. When the cat wants to sniff，she will breathe the air in through her mouth. At this moment，she will often squint(斜视) her eyes and maybe even flatten(使…平坦) her ears. This makes her look like she is making faces. The vomeronasal organs will then analyze(分析)thesmell---almost as if the cat is tasting the smell.When you come home from outside the house，your cat can smell what you had for lunch and for a mid-afternoon snack. She can smell the people you shook hands with and your neighbour you stopped to talk to and hug. She can smell the grass brought under your shoes as you took a shortcut across the lawn. Your cat’s sense of smell is so good that she can smell difference between a gallon of water with a teaspoon of salt in it and plain water. In comparison，we think of salt as completely tasteless.Cats have scent glands(臭腺) on each side of the forehead，on the chin，the lips and next to the tail. When your cat rubs up against your hand，your leg，the sofa，and your bed，she is leaving her scent in those things. She will then use her sense of smell to recognize “her” things，people and even other pets in the home.If you want to have fun with your cat’s sense of smell，take some small bits of different things，such as a bit of chicken，some flowers and some fish. Place each different scent under a piece of paper towel(so your cat cannot see any of them) and encourage your cat to investigate and find what kind of food she likes to eat best.1．Cats know whether the food is fit to eat or not with their____________.A．sense of touch B．scent glandsC．organs of smell D．sense of taste2．The third paragraph was written mainly to prove that _____________.A．cats are very smartB．cats have a good sense as dogsC．salty water has a special smellD．cats’ sense of smell is excellent3．What does your cat do when it rubs against your foot?A．She puts her scent on it.B．She shows respect to you.C．She asks you to play with her.D．She smells where you were just now.4．What does the word “investigate” mean in the last paragrap h?A．Smell. B．See. C．Look. D．Send.5．The passage mainly tells us _________________.A．cats are one of our best friendsB．cats have sharp sense of smellC．sense of smell is very importantD．cats know if something is safe to eatE17、Father’s Day is a perfect opportunity to express your deepest feelings.

The market in children’s music is growing, however. Babies learn about music from the simple songs that their parents sing to them. When the children are older, their parents might teach t hem songs as part of a game. BB King’s recording of Rainy Day Blues follows this tradition. Most of BB King’s fans, however, may not know about his recordings for children. They only know that he writes very popular blues(布鲁斯乐曲) songs for adults.BB King, a great blues musician, recorded Rainy Day Blues for a company called Music for Little People.The company began when a man named Leib Ostrow was looking for songs for his children. He looked for them in stores and looked through books. He could not find anything that he really liked, so he decided to begin a recording company of his own. Soon he was recording music for children. Many parents thought it was a great idea. So did many recording artists.Music for Little People islocatedin northern California. It started as a mail-order business in 1985.Today it is one of the largest children’s musical and educational companies in the United States.根据材料内容选择最佳答案，将其标号填入题前括号内。

At the same time, Disney CEO Bob gets up at 4:30 to read, and Twitter and Square CEO Jack gets up at 5:30.Drink water instead of coffee. Drinking water in the morning makes you more active and speeds up your metabolism(新陈代谢).Make your bed. This leads to a happier and more productive day.Exercise.

Compared with other unmanned aircraft (无人机), the drone is very different. It is made almost completely out of cardboard. It can be packed with materials and sealed (密封) up with tape.The drone looks like a big paper airplane that we used to make as kids. But this light flyer is not a toy, it was designed to be dropped from airplanes. Hundreds of drones could be launched at once and then they are guided to where they are supposed to go to complete deliveries (递送) to different places over an area covering hundreds of kilometers.The company says it can travel about 150 kilometers at speeds up to 88 kilometers an hour. Now it can carry materials weighing up to one kilogram, but future ones are expected to carry heavier loads (负荷).One of the drone’s main advantages is that it does not have a heavy motor or large battery. This provides more room for materials and makes the drone cost less to build and work.The technology that guides the drone can make it land within 10 meters of its target, according to Otherlab. And once the drone completes its delivery, ▲ and the cardboard material will decompos e (分解) within a few months. Otherlab says the drones can also be reused. Otherlab has received money from the U.S. Department of Defense to carry out research on the drones. The U.S. military has a need for delivery drones. But the delivery drones they usually use can be stolen and studied by others if found after use. Before they can truly disappear, the electronic materials inside the drones must also somehow disappear. Otherlab’s Sky Machine is an attempt to fill that need. Researchers are still working on ways to get the technology itself to selfdestruct (自毁).1．What makes the new drone very different from other unmanned airplanes?A．It will drop things while flying.B．It can be played as a toy.C．Its main material is cardboard.D．It was made by Otherlab.2．Having no heavy motor or large battery can _______.A．make the drone fly fasterB．make it difficult for the drone to landC．make the drone cost more to buildD．provide more space for carrying materials3．Which of the following can be put in ▲ ?A．it can be thrown awayB．it will go to the next placeC．it can fly back where it landsD．it will land within 10 meters of its target4．From the last paragraph, we can learn that _______.A．the U.S. military is using Otherlab’s Sky MachinesB．the delivery drones the U.S. military uses are always stolenC．the U.S. Department of Defense supports Otherlab’s researchD．the electronic materials inside a military drone can disappear easilyC15、Here is the content （目录）of a book.1．If you’re interested in music, you can read “__________”.A．National sports B．Sad movies C．The planets D．Weather service2．You can learn something about weather in _______.A．Unit 1 B．Unit 2 C．Unit 3 D．Unit 43．Words about ________ are in Unit 5.A．music stars B．weather conditions C．sports tools D．space news4．If you like culture, you can read “__________”.A．Living in space B．Travelling in IndiaC．Music & Feelings D．The ancient Olympic Games5．In all the units, you can learn the skill of _________.A．predicting by title B．understanding attitudeC．understanding main ideas D．guessing meaning of new wordsD16、阅读下面的图表，做三道小题。

I am spending a year in Galicia and, although it is certainly a beautiful part of the world, I think it rains more than in England.There are no plains here. It is a coastal area, and clouds and storms directly get pushed in from over the ocean with force. As I write, there is a heavy rain outside. I have three umbrellas. Two big ones and a little one which I keep on me 2 , just in case. Believe me what I tell you is all true.The problem is that very often, umbrellas offer no help at all.

The rain falls hard and fast, and there is no escaping it.When people from England think of Spain, they imagine beaches and sunshine. Those things are a world away from my experiences here in Galicia. But I’m not 4 . It is because of all this rain that the countryside here is so green and beautiful. In the town a very nice white wine is made. And there are beautiful beaches here in Galicia, although there probably is 5 on them at the moment.And most important of all is the people.

B ut being a student, Dudley didn’t have the money to get braces(牙箍). So, he decided to3-D print his own and marked down the DIY project in a recent blog post. His braces totaled less than $60, and after wearing them for 16 weeks, his teeth are also getting straighter.Months ago, he mentioned on his blog that he avoided smiling for a while because he was unhappy with his teeth. However, clear braces can get pricey, costing up to $8,000. But after studying some images of these expensive clear braces, something comes up on him--they looked like that one which can come from a 3-D printer.So he decided to hit up his school’s 3-D printing equipment and scanned and printed models of his teeth. Hethen made non-harmful plastic molds (模子) around them to make 12 sets of braces.Dudley, who does not recommend attempting any of this at home said that he didn’t ask a dentist for his project. But the student did get information from journal articles and textbooks. And though this was a perfectlyfriendly choice to buy br aces. He didn’t accept the project just to save money--he was also up for the challenge. “When I realized that I could do something that was a little bit special, while proving my skills as a designerand a maker, and fixing something that was making me self-conscious for actually free, I felt it was more than worth the risk.” he said.1．Dudley got the information on making a 3-D printed braces from___________.A．a professional magazineB．a recent blog postC．journal articles and textbooksD．a 3-D printer user2．Why did Dudley choose a 3-D printer braces over-buying them?A．He didn’t have enough money.B．He felt ashamed about his teeth.C．He studies digital design at school.D．He wanted to be a famous person.3．What made Dudley get the idea of using 3-D printed braces?A．The advice from the dentist.B．The advice from his friends.C．His major studies at university.D．The possibility of making 3-D braces.4．According to the page, Dudley___________.A．has got a 3-D printer at his homeB．did the project totally for challenge.C．made each set of braces cost less than 5 dollarsD．supports others to try making their own 3-D braces5．The article is mainly about___________.A．a 3-D printer made braces cheaperB．A college student made fantastic 3-D braces.C．digital design major student created 3-D printersD．3-D braces with non-harmful plastic molds became popularC15、Not long ago, people thought babies were not able to learn things until they were five or six months old. Yet doctors in the United States say babies begin learning on their first day of life.Scientists note that babies are strongly influenced by their environment. They say a baby will smile if her mother does something the baby likes. A baby learns to get the best care possible by smiling to please her mother or other caregiver. This is how babies learn to connect and communicate with other human beings.One study shows that babies can learn before they are born. The researchers placed a tape recorder on the stomach of a pregnant (怀孕) woman. Then, they played a recording of a short story. On the day the baby was born, the researchers tried to find if he knew the sounds of the story repeated while in his mother. They did this by placing a device (装置) in the mouth of the newborn baby.The baby would hear the story if he moved his mouth one way. If the baby moved his mouth the other way, he would hear a different story. The researchers say the baby clearly liked the story he heard before he was born. They say thebaby would move his mouth so he could hear the story again and again.Another study shows how mothers can strongly influence social development and language skills in their children. Researchers studied the children from the age of one month to three years. The researchers tried to measure the sensitivity (敏感度) of the mothers. The women were considered sensitive if they supported their children’s activities and did not interfere (干涉) unnecessarily. They tested the children for thinking and language development when they were three years old. Also, the researchers observed the women for signs of depression (抑郁).The children of depressed women did not do as well in tests as the children of women who did not suffer from depression. The children of depressed women did poorly in tests of language skills and understanding what they hear.These children also were less cooperative and had more problems dealing with other people. The researchers noted that the sensitivity of the mothers was important to the intelligence development of their children. Children did better when their mothers were caring, even when they suffered from depression.1．According to the passage, which of the following is NOT the factor that influences intelligence development in babies? A．Their peers (同龄人). B．The environment.C．Mother’s sen sitivity. D．Education before birth.2．What is the purpose of the experiment in which newborn babies heard the stories?A．To prove that babies can learn before they are born.B．To prove that babies can learn on the first day they are born.C．To show that ea rly education has a deep effect on the babies’ language skills.D．To show mothers can strongly influence intelligence development in their babies.3．Which group of children did the worst in tests of language skills?A．Children with high communication abilities.B．The children of depressed but caring mothers.C．The children of women who did not suffer from depression.D．The children of depressed mothers who cared little for their children.4．What is the main idea of the passage?A．Scientific findings about how babies develop before birth.B．Scientific findings about how intelligence develops in babies.C．Scientific findings about how the stories have effects on babies’ intelligence.D．A study shows babies are not able to learn things until they are five or six months old.D16、1．We can learn from the first letter that “English Kids”_____________A．builds up a school to teach children EnglishB．makes plans for foreign English learnersC．teaches middle school students EnglishD．shows parents how to teach their children English2．What’s the mother’s problem with her son?A．He has no interest in English learningB．He can’t pay attention to his English classC．He can understand English but not able to speak itD．He doesn’t like his mother to teach him English3．From the second letter, we know that the mother shouldn’t_________A．encourage her son to learn English wellB．expect his son to speak English after understanding itC．tell her son how much she loved speaking EnglishD．be too hurried to quicken her son’s s tep to speak English4．According to Jo, children need a lot of _____________ to understand a language before speaking it. A．money B．time C．prizes D．chances5．The underlined word “enthusiastic” in the last paragraph probably means “_________”.A．热情B．拖沓C．懒散D．胆小E17、Computers can injure you. Most other injuries happen suddenly. For example, if you fall off a bicycle and break your arm, it happens very quickly. But computer injuries happen slowly.Your eyesToo much light can injure your eyes, so never sit too close to a computer screen. Your eyes should be at least 50 centimeters from the screen. Remember to look away from it sometimes. This gives your eyes a rest.When you use a computer, the window should be on your left or your right. If it is behind you, the light willreflect(反射) on the screen. If the windows is in front of you, the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes.Your hands and wrists(手腕)Hand and wrist injuries can happen because the hands and wrists are moved in the same way hundreds of times. If you use a keyboard for a long time, follow these three rules: 1) Rest your wrists on something. 2) Keep your elbows at the same height as the keyboard. 3) Stop sometimes and exercise your hands, wrists and fingers in a different way.Your backSome people sit for many hours in front of a computer. If you sit in a wrong way, you can injure your back or your neck. So you should sit with your back straight. The top part of the screen should be in front of your eyes. Your forearms(前臂), wrists and hands should all be parallel to(与……平衡) the floor. If you are sitting for a long time, get up every 30 minutes and exercise your arms, legs and neck.Enjoy your computer, but use it safely.1．The underlined word ＂injure＂means ＂.＂A．保护B．影响C．伤害D．帮助2．Your eyes should .A．be close to the screenB．be less than 50 centimeters from the screenC．face the windowD．be more than 50 centimeters from the screen3．To protect your hands and wrists you should .A．keep your elbows above the height of the keyboardB．keep your wrists hanging without touching anythingC．keep your elbows below the height of the keyboardD．stop playing computer sometimes and exercise4．Which of the following is true?A．Sitting wrongly is only bad for your wrists and fingers.B．Y our eyes should be at the same height as the top part of the screen.C．Y ou should have a rest every two hours.D．Y ou should sit in front of a screen and play computer for a long time.5．Which is the best title of this passage?A．How to Use a computer SafelyB．How to Play Computer GamesC．How to Protect Your EyesD．Computers Are very HarmfulF18、For those who haven t heard of it，the Apple watch is the latest invention from the creators of the iPhone and Apple Mac. As the name suggests，this creation is a device（装置）designed to tell us the time. This is Apple，however，and an Apple watch is never just a watch. Not only does it show us the time，but it also acts as a fitness monitor and a messaging device that can be connected with an iPhone.Is this a smart invention or technology gone too far? While the Apple watch is stylish in appearance，I cant help but question certain aspects（方面）of the new device. Is it a positive thing to be able to receive messages through a watch，or is this another way of letting technology upset our social lives?Thanks to the invention of the smartwatch，we will no longer have to reach for our phones to check our messages. Imagine the possible results. A group of friends sitting at a table in a restaurant will overlook each other as everyone will be too busy watching their wrists in expectation of a new message. Students will have a way of checking their inbox during school，despite the fact that using mobile phones is not allowed in class. The list goes on. Although smartwatches may make communicating through technology easier, it seems that using them could actually hinder face to face communication.Much like a phone，the watch would also need to be charged（充电）every day. This is yet another aspect of the device which sets it apart from any“normal" watch. If, like me，you struggle when remembering to put your phone on charge，this is not necessarily a positive thing.I do have to agree，however, the watch has some interesting and purposeful functions（功能）As a fitness monitor, the device can be used to create and record exercise activities. This could be of particular interest to outdoor fans. While there are several existing Android Apps that can already do this，I can see that the Apple watch would be a more convenient way of exercising without a mobile phone. The question remains，however, is the price worth the benefits? While there are clearly both advantages and disadvantages when it comes to Apple s latest invention，I personally like my single-purpose watch that simply tells me the time！What about you?Would you be interested in having a smartwatch?1．Thanks to the invention of the Apple watch，A．students don t use computers in classB．mobile phones don t need to be chargedC．messages can be checked without phonesD．outdoor activities have become more popular2．The underlined word "hinder" in Paragraph 3 probably means“”A．make up B．hold back C．depend on D．look after3．From the passage，we can team that the writerA．worries about the safety of the smartwatchB．thinks highly of the progress of technologyC．introduces the newest kind of smartphonesD．prefers single-purpose watches that tell the time4．What is probably the best title for this passage?A．The Apple Watch：The Latest InventionB．The Apple Watch：Smart and FashionableC．The Apple Watch：Technology Gone Too Far?D．The Apple Watch：A Convenient Way to Exercise?Ⅴ.书面表达19、假如你是Henry，你的笔友李华在英语学习中遇到了困难．请根据提示，用英语给他写一封邮件，就如何应对这些英语学习上的困难，谈谈你的做法和想法．词数80词左右．注意事项：1．必须包含上面所提示的信息，可适当发挥，开头已给出，不计入总词数；2．意思清楚，表达通顺，行文连贯，书写规范；3．请勿在文中使用真实的姓名、校名及提示信息以外的地名．参考词汇：imitate模仿audio音频Dear Li Hua，I am glad that you are interested in learning English．But I'm sorry to hear that you have some difficulties in learningEnglish._______________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________There are many ways to learn English，but you should have your own way．Yours，Henry参考答案Ⅰ. 单项选择1、C2、C3、D4、D5、D6、D7、A8、B9、C10、AⅡ. 完形填空11、1．C 2．A3．D4．B5．D6．CⅢ. 语法填空12、1．teacher 2．crying 3．seriously 4．follows 5．othersⅣ. 阅读理解13、1．A 2．D3．A4．C5．B14、1．C 2．A3．D4．C5．B15、1．A 2．A3．D4．B16、1．D 2．C3．D4．B5．A17、1．C2．D3．D4．B5．A18、1．C2．B3．D4．CⅤ.书面表达19、Dear Li Hua，I am glad that you are interested in learning English．But I'm sorry to hear that you have some difficulties in learning English．For example，it's hard for you to remember words．You aren't good at listening and often make mistakes in grammar．You read slowly．I find some ways to improve my English．Maybe they can help you．I copy down new words and keep reading them whenever I'm free．I read after audios and imitate the tones．I often read grammar books，borrow English newspapers and magazines and read them after class．Listen carefully and take notes in class．Practice makes perfect．So it's important to practice every day．Use English as much as possible．There are many ways to learn English，but you should have your own way．Yours，Henry。

And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The express0ion was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New Y ork City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it "Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States.“Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers throughout the country for over 28 years. People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.1．Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they .A．want to be as rich as their neighborsB．want others to know or to think that they are richC．don’t want others to know they are richD．want to look like their neighbors2．It can be inferred from the story that rich people like to .A．live outside New York City B．live in New York CityC．live in apartments D．live with many neighbors3．Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because atthat time “Jones” is in the United States.A．an important name B．a popular nameC．his neighbor’s name D．not a good name4．According to Arthur Momand’s story, which of the following is Not True ?A．Arthur Momand earned a lot of money every week.B．Arthur Momand hired a servant and gave big parties.C．Arthur Momand moved back to a flat in New York City.D．Arthur Momand married a wealthy wife in the neighborhood.5．According to the last sentence underlined, what’s the writer’s attitude towards“keeping up with the Joneses” ?A．It is very common to keep up with the Joneses.B．It is very easy to keep up with the Joneses.C．It is difficult to always keep up with the Joneses.D．It is never too tired to keep up with the Joneses.B14、Lin Hanxing is a 30-year-old who lives in Beijing. She owns just five shirts, two pairs of trousers, four pairs of shoes, three books and a few other things. It’s hard to belie ve that only five years ago, Lin was one of those people who couldn’t stop buying things. Back then, she had more than 400 pieces of clothes and handbags.
