They often invite friends over for a meal, a party, or just for coffee and conversation. Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their homes:“Would you like to come over for dinner on Saturday night?”“Hey, we’re having a party on Friday. Can you come?”To reply to an invitation, either say thank you and accept, or say you’re sorry and give an excuse: “Thanks, I’d love to. What t ime would you like me to come?” or “Oh, sorry. I have tickets for a film.”Sometimes, however, people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real invitations. For example:“Please come over for a drink sometimes.”“Let’s get together for lunch soon.”“Why don’t you come over and see us sometime soon.”These are really just polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because they don’t talk about a specific time or date. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly. To reply to expressions like these, people just say: “Sure, that would be great!” or “OK, yes, thanks.”So next time you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?1．Which of the following is a real invitation?A．What can I do for you?B．How about having lunch with me sometime?C．We are having friends over for my birthday on Sunday. Would you and your parents like to come?D．Why don’t you join me for a cup of tea some day?2．What would you answer when you really want to accept an invitation?A．That sounds great.B．Thank you for inviting me. I’m sorry I have something important to do.C．Thank you very much. I’d be glad to. What time would you like me to come?D．I wish I could, but I have to study hard for the exams.3．What would you say when you want to refuse an invitation?A．Fine.

How do we know that the stars are really huge balls of fire like the Sun and very far away? And how do we know that the Earth is a smaller ball turning round one of those stars, the Sun?The key to those questions is“ evidence"(证据). Sometimes evidence means actually seeing (or hearing, feeling, smelling…) that something is true. Astronauts have travelled far enough from the Earth to see wi th their own eyes that it is round. Sometimes our eyes need help The" evening star" looks like a bright twinkle in the sky, but with a telescope( 望远镜) you can see that it is a beautiful ball. Something that you learn by direct seeing(or hearing or feeling… )is called an observation(观察)Often evidence isn't just observation on its own, but observation always hides at the back of it. If there's been a murder, often nobody(except the murderer and the dead person!)actually observed it. But detectives(侦探)can gather together lots of other observations which may all point towards the suspect(嫌疑犯). If a person’s finger- prints match those found on a knife, this is evidence that he touched it. It doesn't prove(证明)that he did the murder, but it can help when it's joined up with lots of other evidence.Prediction helps to look for evidence. Scientists make a guess about what might be true. For example, if the world is really round, we can predict that any of us, going on and on in the same direction, should eventually find ourselves back where we startedPeople sometimes say that you must believe in feelings deep inside, but not all the inside feelings are real evidence. What can we do about all this? When somebody tells you something that sounds possible, think to yourself: "Is thereany evidence for that? And, next time somebody tells you that something is true, why not say to them: What kind of evidence is there for that? "Remember ,always think carefully before you believe a word.1．Why does the writer use the example of a detective in Paragraph 3?A．To explain what prediction isB．To tell what observation is calledC．To introduce how detectives work.D．To prove evidence is not just observation2．The underlined "eventually "in Paragraph 4 meansA．probably B．finally C．completely D．luckily3．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Prediction helps to prove something if it is true.B．What you see directly is real evidenceC．People should always believe their inside feelingsD．Astronauts find the Earth is round with a telescope.4．what's the best title of the passage?A．Evidence speaksB．Scientists make predictionsC．Inside feelings help get ideasD．Observation offers the factsF18、The Martianis a 2015 Americanscience fictionfilmdirected byRidley Scottand starringMatt Damon.

It first attracted my attention when I saw the movie based on the book during the Spring Festival. It is a science fiction about driving the earth away from the solar system.

It describes a journey of a group of American travelers in 1867. It was the best-selling of Twain’s works during his lifetime, as well as one of the best-selling travel books of all time.Sara: My favorite book is Linnea in Monet’s Garden. It’s a story about a little girl visiting Monet’s art in museums. She also visits the artist’s home and gardens. What I like most is that the full-color photos of Monet’s famous paintings.Ben: Grand Canyon is an introduction to the natural history of the canyon. If you like geography, I’m sure you’ll like it. You can find lots of amazing photos in the book. It’s perfect for young travelers, campers, and observers of the natural world, especially for those planning a trip to the Southwest.11．The Wall Paper allows the students to ________.A．share the books they like B．learn about different studentsC．introduce their favorite movies D．show their reading experience12．If one likes travelling, which two of the books can be chosen?A．The Wandering Earth and Grand Canyon.B．The Wandering Earth and Linnea in Monet’s Garden.C．The Innocents Abroad and Grand Canyon.D．The Innocents Abroad and Linnea in Monet’s Garden.13．What do we know about the book The Wandering Earth from Tim?A．It was published during the Spring Festival.B．It describes the solar system.C．It is a book about making a movie.D．It is written by a Chinese writer.Para 1.Stonehenge is an ancient circle of stones in the south of England. It was built about 5,000 years ago. Every year, it attracts thousands of tourists to enjoy its beauty. They also wonder about how and why it was built.Para 2.There are about 80 stones and each is about five meters tall. The stones were 380 kilometers away from where they were made. The ancient people had only wooden tools. To move the stones they probably used tree trunks(树干) to roll them along. So it was a wonder to build Stonehenge. Scientists say it took millions of man-hours to move and raise the heavy stones. How did people move these huge pieces of stone from the place so far? No one knows the answer. One record said the great stones were carried to England by huge magical(有魔力的) aliens! But we don’t know.Para 3. Some scientists believe that Stonehenge was a temple. Some believe it was a place to bury dead people or perhaps it was used to study the stars and the sky at night. Others think it was even used to tell the time. Whatever the stones were used to do, they have always been the pride of British people.Para 4.In modern times Stonehenge has become a huge hit with tourists.14．Which paragraph tells about the use of Stonehenge?A．Paragraph 1.B．Paragraph 2.C．Paragraph 3.D．Paragraph 4. 15．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．Stonehenge attracts many people from all over the world every year.B．Scientists don’t exactly know what tools ancient people used to roll the stones.C．The stones have always been the pride of British people.D．British men carried heavy stones from over 380 kilometers away.16．What is the best title for the passage?A．Magical Stonehenge B．A Man-made Wonder in EnglandC．Visitors to Stonehenge D．Some Uses of Stonehenge Earthquakes happen without warning（前兆）. They can happen any time of a day, at any point during the year. But don’t worry because most earthquakes are so weak that they cannot be felt. Only a few big ones hurt people. However, it’s important to know what to do when an earthquake is happening.Do NOT go outside. You could get injured from falling glass or parts of buildings. Ifyou are outside, stay away from buildings and power lines（输电线）.Stay under a desk, table, or other strong furniture. Hold on to it. Or stay in a corner of the building. Cover your face and head with your arms and cover your mouth with a towel or clothing. Stay inside until shaking stops and it is safe to go outside.Keep away from windows, pictures or advertisements on the wall or the building, and anything else that could fall and hurt you. Most people get injured by falling things during an earthquake, not by the shaking itself.Also keep away from a fire. You could fall down and burn yourself on the fire.If you are driving when an earthquake happens, stop the car if it’s safe. Stay inside your car until the earthquake stops, and don’t drive near bridges. Try not to stop by power lines or trees.

Very few people live in the area, but it is home to many animals, including the endangered Tibetan antelope (藏羚羊).Thousands of Tibetan antelopes once lived in this area, but their populations dropped in the 1980s and 1990s. This was in large part the result of poaching (偷猎). Poachers often killed Tibetan antelopes for their soft and highly prized wool.Over recent decades, however, much has been done to protect these animals. The government has made it much more difficult for poachers to operate in the area by introducing strict laws. And in the spring, when thousands of Tibetan antelopes make a long journey to Hoh Xil, government workers follow the antelopes, making sure that they are protected from poachers and from other wild animals.The government has also taken steps to slow down tourism in the area, since tourists often disturb the natural habits of animals.All of this work has had good results. Tibetan antelopes are enjoying much better conditions than before, and their populations are rising once again. Today there are more than 60,000 Tibetan antelopes in the area—and this number continues to grow every year. 22．Which sentence is NOT correct?A．Poaching caused the population of Tibetan antelopes to drop decades ago.B．The population of Tibetan antelopes is staring to grow again.C．The government is encouraging tourism in the Tibetan antelope's natural habitat.D．The Qinghai-Tibet plateau has a small human population.23．Why did poachers kill Tibetan antelopes?A．They wanted to get the valuable wool.B．They wanted to live in their habitat.C．Tibetan antelopes brought trouble to them.D．They wanted to trade their meat.24．Why do government workers follow Tibetan antelopes on their long journeys?A．They want to record their living habits.B．They want to protect them from poachers.C．They want to make sure that they are protected from other animals.D．They want to keep them safe from poachers and other animals.25．Which is the best title?A．Endangered animals.B．A success story: protecting Tibetan antelope.C．Reasons for the disappearing of Tibetan antelope.D．More antelopes now!三、阅读还原6选5四、根据汉语提示填空五、短文选词填空七、材料作文61．假如你是李华, 上个月你校举行了“祖国在我心中”的主题活动（theme event）,请你根据以下提供的信息并结合你参加这个主题活动的经历, 写一篇英语短文向你校英语报投稿。
