He drove a bus that ran from downtown to the edge of the city. Each night I watched him. As the passengers got on the bus, he smiled at each one. It was fun to see how many passengers forgot their troubles and smiled back.There was one passenger, I noticed, that had never smiled back. He usually coughed roughly through his mustache (胡子) as he got on the bus. And he never covered his mouth. But that wasn’t enough to stop the bus driver’s smile. He gave the man with the mustache and the rough cough his biggest smile.The man with the mustache never seemed to see that smile. He would sit on the edge of his seat and complained about the way that the bus driver was driving. He only complained for a short time, but he spoke loudly enough so everybody could hear. It was enough to make me sick. But the driver never said a word. He just went on smiling at passengers as they got on the bus.I wanted to get to know this bus driver better. One night I stayed on the bus to the end of the line. I asked the driver, “Why don’t you throw that man with the mustache out of the bus?” The bus driver looked at me and gave me one of his famo us smiles. “I don’t care about that,” he said. “Let me tell you about my friend’s dog.

He said it was a piece of wood with lead（铅）inside it . Pencil s weren’t popular, and people continued to write with pens. In 1795,someone started making pencils from graphite(石墨) and they became very popular. Today, people make pencils in the same way. They make the graphite into the shape of a stick, and then they put it inside a piece of wood. One pencil can make a line as long as 55 kilometers. When people first wrote with pens , they had to put the penpoint into ink after every few letters. Later someone invented a fountain pen(自来水笔) and this kind of pen could hold ink inside. A fountain pen can write several pages before you have to fill it again.Two brothers, Ladislao and Georg Biro, invented the ballpoint pen(圆珠笔)that we use today. They left their country Hungary and started producing ballpoint pens in England in 1943 during World War II. Later, a French company called Bic bought the Biro’s company. Someone calls ballpoint pens bics. Australians call them biros. Whatever we call them, we use them every day.1．（小题1）When did the pencil become popular according to the passage?A．In 1565.

It was amazing and touching as all these strangers seemed to react(反应) with the same mind. All wanted to be of help. Within minutes the cashier said, “I have too much money.” The cashier didn’t need our ten-dollar bills. Then the lady in front of me, who had been the first to offer help, said, “Wait! I didn’t even get a chance to give anything!”I smiled at her and said, “You did your share, because it was your idea and you started all this. “ The little boy smiled and thanked us. We wished him the best and he left. I was left with a good feeling. I had seen the love and goodness of others all around me.

The villagers talked little but sighed（叹息）often. Children had no heart in sports and gave them up. People were sad to know that Tom, Joe and Huck were drowned（淹死）.In the afternoon, Becky found herself walking around the yard and feeling very sad. She said to herself, “I haven’t got anything to remember Tom by. He’s gone now. I’ll never, never see him any more.”Then there was an argument about who saw the dead boys last in life. Many said they did and offered evidence. When it was finally decided who saw the dead boys last, the lucky ones took upon themselves some self-importance.The next morning, when the bell began to toll（鸣钟）, the villagers got together in thechurch. No one could remember when the little church had been so full before. Aunt Polly entered. She was followed by Sid and Mary and by the Harper family. They were all in deep black. As the funeral（葬礼）continued, people felt sorry that they didn’t treat the boys well before. They only saw faults（缺点）in them. People gave way to their feelings and cried.A moment later, the church door opened slowly. People raised their eyes above handkerchiefs（手帕）and they were surprised.

But UK workers are travelling 54 minutes and Londoners commute about 80 minutes by car and over two hours by train every day. What can these commuters in the UK teach us about how best to behave during all that time spent in cars, trains and buses?First of all, travel manners are important. A recent article asked its readers to describe which of the commuters’ actions are bad manners. Top answers included making too much noise, eating badly-smelt food and putting feet up on the seats. Several readers evenmentioned a passenger who clipped their toenails（修指甲）on the train.But a long commute isn’t just about unhappy experiences. Many UK commuters can make use of their time on transport creatively. 37-year-old Ben Yallop used his daily three-hour trip to write and publish two novels. 24-year-old Amy Dickett uses her 90-minute trip to take pictures of other commuters for her Commute Blog. She takes a picture and asks them to tell her something surprising about themselves. “Usually they are surprised but glad to have some fun on an otherwise boring journey. Often the people around us join in and will ask their own questions,” she said.So, no matter where or how your journey is, learn from the UK commuters. _________. 34．Which of the following is NOT included in the top answers about commuters’ bad manners?A．Making too much noise.B．Eating badly-smelt food.C．Putting feet up on the seats.D．Clipping their toenails35．What did Ben Yallop do in his daily three-hour trip?A．Asked others for surprising things.B．Took pictures of other commuters. C．Played mobile phone games.D．Wrote and published two novels. 36．In Paragraph 3, the writer expresses his idea by ________.A．giving examples B．explaining the meaningC．making a conclusion D．showing its importance37．Which of the following sentences is the most suitable for the part “________”? A．Then you will find time spent on the train passes quicklyB．But make sure you choose the most comfortable seatC．Mind your manners and try to use your time in creative waysD．Commuters of other countries may not agree with British peopleSeeing blood in a horror movie might make you scream or cover your eyes, but real blood isn’t scary at all. Blood keeps us alive. That’s why blood donors are considered lifesavers.Blood donors are people who give blood—usually about 200 ml at a time—to blood banks or blood donation centres. The blood is then available for people who have lost blood in accidents, need operations, or have a serious illness that requires their blood to be replaced.Hospitals and blood banks store the blood and try to keep enough on hand for major emergencies (紧急情况), such as typhoons and earthquakes, in which many people areinjured.Donating blood is easy. Medical workers ask donors several questions about their health, as well as test their blood, to make sure the blood is safe to use. Then the donors relax, often reading a magazine or talking as their blood is drawn. Afterward, the donors may receive some juice or water and maybe fruit or cookies to give them energy before leaving the donation centre. The whole process is simple and quick, not scary. After blood donation, the donors had better rest and not overwork. Most people are able to donate blood again in about two months if they wish.To give blood, a person must be at least 18 years old and must meet certain other requirements. Students of all ages, though, can learn more about the donation process by visiting a local blood donation centre. Donating blood is one of the easiest ways to save lives and help a community.38．What does the underlined phrase mean in Chinese?A．献血者B．献血证C．采血员D．血液检测39．What question does the second paragraph answer?A．Where does the blood go?B．Who needs the blood most?C．Is all donors’ blood safe to use?D．Why would medical workers ask questions?40．What would happen to a ninth grader who wants to donate blood?A．He would have to rest at first.B．He would receive extra cookies. C．He would not be allowed to donate.D．He would be allowed to donate only 200 ml.四、多句选词填空根据句子意思，从方框中选用恰当的单词或短语填空。

Last week, the watch was firstly introduced by Tim Cook, Apple's CEO. The price of the watch will differ from $349 to $1,099, depending on its size, strap and whether it is a sports or regular version.Apple engineers and designers have put in a lot of thought and hard work into creating this "small screen" on your wrist(手腕). The "sensor" on the screen not only detects your finger, but knows the difference between when you are tapping, and when you are pressing harder.The watch also has “haptic feedback(触觉反馈)”. Yo u can send personal messages to your friend - such as drawing a star or a special sign with your fingers, or tapping the watch, say 3 times, and your friend will receive those taps on their wrist.Besides telling the time, the watch will use 'bluetooth' to connect with your iPhone and show calls or text messages that come in.According to Tim Cook, the watch may open up a whole new area of applications that we had never thought of. Some car factories like BMW have developed an app that allows its car owners to open their cars with the watch. A 'Hotels' app may allow you to open the door to your hotel room without worrying about losing the smart-card. And finally, even airlines are jumping in - passengers may be able to simply wave their wrist to check into their flight.The biggest use of the watch, however, is as your personal fitness coach. The watch can measure your pulse (heartbeat) using a sensor at the bottom of the watch. It also has the same "accelerometer" as your iPhone, so it knows when you are moving, and also how much you are walking or running. It will remind you if you have been sitting for too long without much activity.Many stores are planning to stop selling the Nike, Jawbone and FitBit devices(设备) to welcome the Apple Watch. Will Apple Watch really replace these devices and make fitness much more fun?1．We can learn from the passage that the Apple Watch ________.A．is designed by Tim CookB．was brought into the market last weekC．sells at different prices for different coloursD．will come into the market this coming April2．With apple watch, you can ________.A．develop your own personal appB．connect your iphone with your ipadC．receive personal messages from your friends’ iphoneD．send personal messages to your friends’ apple watches3．Many businesses help push for the uses of apple watch EXCEPT ________.

As entrance into college has become more difficult, colleges have looked more at what skills you have. Taking part in after-school activities is a great way to succeed in school. High School ClubsMost high schools have a lot of clubs and activities, so it is easy to find something that you are interested in. Colleges look for students who will also be active other than test scores. There are many clubs in school, such as the drama club and a book club. You may even be able to find a club related to a job, such as Future Teachers of America.High School SportsIf you want to go to college and want to take part in sports at a college level, then this fact just might give you a chance. It is generally a good idea to focus on one single sport. If you plan on sports opening college doors and leading to college scholarships, it would be better if you decide which sport to do. In this way, you will have enough time to build their skills.High School Publications(出版物)Another smart way to be active in high school and show colleges that you are interested in activities more than academics(学术) is to be a part of their school’s newspaper or magazine. There may be an actual class you can join or you may join a club. Being in high school publications can be very helpful, particularly if you want to major(主修) in English or in education in college.1．After-school activities include all of the following except ________.A．joining a club B．doing a part-time jobC．taking part in sports D．working on school’s newspaper or magazine2．Being a club member may help students ________.A．improve their EnglishB．get higher scores in subjectsB．make more good friends D．know something about jobs3．We can learn from the passage that ________.A．the US colleges like good grades and test betterB．the US colleges consider it important to be good at sportsC．you should be a part of school’s newspaper or magazineD．you have to find a club to join in high schools in the US4．Which of the following students will get useful information from this passage?A．Sarah is thinking about starting her own business after graduation.B．Ann likes writing and she would like to choose English as her major in college.C．Leon is interested in acting and he wants to join the school’s drama club.D．Chris has difficulty in getting along with the other members in the basketball team.E17、请阅读下面短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出一个最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Our planet is covered with atmosphere（大气）．Sunlight passes through the atmosphere and reaches the Earth. The Sun heats up the Earth's surface. When the heat rises into the air, it is stopped by some special gases in the atmosphere like CO2, the heat returns to the Earth and keeps it warm.Power stations and cars release so many green-house gases every day. So we can help stop global warming by using less electric things such as turning off lights when we leave a room, asking our parents to turn down the heating in our house to save energy. We can also stop global warming by finding other ways of transportation. For example, ride abicycle or walk instead of going by car. Another way to help stop global warming is to plant and care for trees. Because trees take in C02 , they are our best friends when fighting against global warming.The problem of global warming cannot be solved in a day. It may take a long time to find clean energy, such as wind energy. It may take a long time to plant the trees again which were cut down. But every little thing each person can do to save energy and our forests will help. Think about our planet. Think about ways we can help make the Earth a safe and comfortable place for the future.1．What does the underlined word “it” refer to in paragraph 1?A．The Earth. B．The atmosphere. C．The heat. D．The sunlight.2．According to the passage,______ can help to fight against global warming.A．power stations and cars B．treesC．electric things D．special gases like C023．What can we learn from the passage?A．The problem of global warming will be solved soon.B．We can never save energy and our forests.C．Only the sunlight makes the Earth warming up.D．To find clean energy will help solve the problem of global warming.4．What does release mean?A．relax B．reflex C．give off D．give awayB14、Most visited museums in the worldThe British Museum, London, UKIt is one of the world’s greatest museums of human history and culture.

Some older boys are bullying(欺负)him at school. James is very unhappy and he doesn't know what to do about it. Here are some suggestions to him and other teenagers in this situation.Don't feel worried. It's not your fault(过错)! Being bullied can make you feel very lonely and angry，but you are not alone. Don't feel that you have to hide the problem. You should find a person you can trust，and tell them. It might beyour teacher，your parents，or even your friend's parents. After you tell someone，you will get some support and feel some relief(解脱).Speaking to an adult might make you nervous，but here are other things you can do. Some people express their feelings more easily on paper. Write a letter to someone or keep a diary.

Selfie is a photo that one takes of oneself, according to the Oxford online dictionary. People usually take selfies with a smartphone(智能手机) and send them to a social media website.The word was first used in 2004. In the past 12 months, its frequency (出现频率) in the English language has increased by 17,000 percent, said Oxford dictionaries. Now, almost everybody knows it.“Almost every day, I take a photo of my self at school, and save it in my Qzone (QQ空间),” said Huang Xu, 13, from Hunan. These photos record her happy and sad moments.Pop stars also take a lot of selfies. Li Chunping, 14, from Harbin, is a big fan of Yang Mi. “She has used many selfies to tell u s what’s going on in her personal life,” said Li.What makes people love selfies? Some people say it’s narcissism (自恋). “The rise of the selfie is a perfect symbol for our narcissistic culture. We’re crying out: Look at me!” said US psychiatrist(精神科医生) Carole Lieberman.Young people are using selfies to make friends online, Jonathan Freedland wrote in The Guardian. “The usual purpose of taking a selfie is to share online. They express a human need to connect with others,” wrote Freedland.Huang Xu agrees wi th that. “During summer vacation, my classmates and I shared many selfies online. Hair or clothes were not our interests. Through these photos, we got to know each other’s holidays and feelings,” said Huang Xu. 1．（小题1）According to the story, a “selfie” is __________.A．a person with a smartphoneB．a smartphone which can take photosC．a photo taken by oneselfD．an English dictionary2．（小题2）When was the word “selfie” first used?A．More than ten years ago B．In 2014C．When smartphones appeared D．Nobody knows3．（小题3）We can tell from the story that __________.A．only famous people enjoy taking selfiesB．all people love selfies because of narcissismC．people love to share selfies onlineD．US psychiatrist Carole Lieberman hates selfies4．（小题4）We put the senten ce “But some people don’t see it that way” at the beginning of ___________.

Local people not only sort their rubbish, but also put QR codes (二维码) on it.“When the rubbish is collected and the codes are seen, I will get reward points to exchange for small gifts and even some money,” one of the local people told reporter. “It’s really creative and encouraging.”China produces quite a lot of rubbish every year. Much of the rubbish is buried (填埋) in soil or burned without being sorted. Landfills (填埋场) take up a lot of land and have a risk of polluting the soil and water nearby. And burning rubbish can produce harmful gases. Through rubbish sorting, we can reduce the use of landfills and air pollution.What’s more, rubbish sorting saves resources, which could bring economic benefits (经济利益). For example, a ton of waste paper can be reused to make about 850 kg of paper, saving 17 trees and 50 percent of water. Because of their benefits, some countries have developed successfully sorting systems.Japan has a strict and detailed system. When people throw away a water bottle, the cap, the wrapper (包装纸) and the bottle itself have to go into three different bins.In Australia, every family is provided with three rubbish bins—the red lid (盖子) bin for “general waste” like food and plastic bags, the yellow lid bin for “recycling” like steel and glass, and the green lid bin for “green waste” such as grass and leaves. On the streets, the bins are printed with pictures of the things that are allowed inside. It makesrecycling quite easy.1．What will local people probably get if they put daily rubbish into the new system in Fangchengyuan Community? A．A computer. B．A car. C．A lot of money. D．Some small gifts.2．Which of the following is NOT the result of burying rubbish?A．Polluting soil. B．Polluting water.C．Taking up a lot of land. D．Saving resources.3．Which paragraph discusses the economic benefits of rubbish sorting?A．Paragraph 3. B．Paragraph 4. C．Paragraph 5. D．Paragraph 6.4．In Australia, which bin should you put food left after dinner in?A．The red lid bin. B．The yellow lid bin.C．The green lid bin. D．The black lid bin.5．Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A．In Australia, the green lid bin is used for all kinds of recyclable wastes.B．In Japan, all kinds of things for recycling are printed on rubbish bins.C．Japanese people cannot throw a bottle into a bin unless they move away the wrapper first.D．In Australia, much of the rubbish is buried in soil or burned without being sorted.C15、Dear Grandma,How are you? I hope you are feeling well and your leg is improving. Can you walk a bit now? Is your neighbour, Mrs Lu, bringing you enough books to read? I hope so. You’d love our school library, Grandma. There are so many books on all kinds of subjects. The other day I found a book about engineering. I couldn’t really understand it but I hope to learn more about this topic sometime. This term I have three n ew subject classes, so I think I’ll tell you about them.I study biology. It is a very interesting subject. I’m learning all about the human body, where everything is and what it does. Did you know that we have a kissing muscle? It’s called ‘orbicularis’ and it’s a circle muscle that closes your mouth and moves your lips forward. I love biol ogy. It’s so interesting! Another new subject is religion (宗教). I didn’t think I would like this one, but actually it is very interesting to hear how different people worship (崇拜). We are learning about lots of religions from all over the world, not only A sia. My other new subject is Spanish. It’s really difficult to learn a new language but I know it will be useful for me in the future, if I want to travel around the world. Spanish is one of the official languages of the European Union and the United Natio ns. I’ve learnt that Spanish is not only spoken in Europe but in South America too. Countries like Peru, Bolivia, Chile, and Mexico also speak Spanish. You know I’ve always wanted to go to Mexico, so if I can speak Spanish it would be really useful.Did yo u study these subjects when you were at school? I suppose subject choice changes over time, doesn’t it? I’ll come to visit you again in the next holiday, which I think is in eight weeks’ time. I’ll bring you some of my new books if you like. I hope you can write back soon and tell me all the village news. I miss you very much.Lots of love,Sara1．From the letter we can know that Grandma’s leg was ________.A．improving B．lost C．getting worse D．hurt2．The writer has learnt a lot except ________ since she began to study biology.A．the human body B．a kissing muscleC．orbicularis D．circles3．Which of the following is Not True according to the passage?A．Sara knows little about engineering.B．Sara thinks Spanish is useful but not easy to learn.C．Grandma probably doesn’t like reading books very much.D．The subjects Sara learns are different from the ones her grandma did.D16、Everyone in our class has our own characters.

The lack （缺乏）of music teaching is serious, especially in government schools where there are not enough specialist （专业的）music teachers.A national review in 2005 made 15 suggestions, but Professor Walker said it still failed to deal with the lack of classical music taught in schools."I'm not against pop music, but it's very simple, and not difficult either to play or to sing, " Professor Walker says. "But classical music is challenging and although it is part of Australia's culture heritage, most children learn it only through Hollywood films. ""At least children ought to know what's happening in Western culture. It's part of culture heritage," he says. "Asian students know more about Western classical music than most children in the West.
