He then touched the nose and 3 , “Can you tell me the name of this mountain? It is the highest mountain on Earth! What’s the 4 of it? Yes, it’s 8844. 43 metres…” I’ll never forget my first geography lesson. He was 5 humorous that we all fell in love with his lessons 6 .

It is very easy to understand how this expression was born. When my face has a nice fresh colour, pink colour, it is a sign that my health is good. The colour green is natural for tree; it is an unnatural colour for humans. When someone doesn’t feel well, someone who is sick, we use this word. For example, when someone doesn’t have what someone else has, we say he is “green with envy”. Some people are “green with envy” because someone else has more dollars, or “greenbacks”. Dollars is called greenback because that’s the colour of the backside of the money. Blue is a cool colour. The traditional blue music of American blacks is the opposite of red hot music. It is slow, sad and soulful（深情的）. To be blue, of course, is to be sad. The colour black is often used in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a “black day”. A“black sheep” is the member of a family or a group who always seems to be in trouble. If someone meets a “black cat”, something unlucky might happen to him. Not all the “black” expressions have bad meanings. A company “in the red” is losing money. If someone tells y ou to put something “in black and white”, they want you to write it down.( ) 1. After reading the passage, we can infer if someone “looks gray”, he________.A. looks wellB. may need a doctorC. is healthyD. is “in the pink” ( ) 2. I was really when I saw his new car.A. redB. blueC. greenD. black( ) 3. Which word can describe the red hot music?A. FastB. SadC. SlowD. Soulful( ) 4. My brother is of our family, everyone hates him.A. a black horseB. a black cat dogC. a black catD. a black sheep ( ) 5. Which of the following is true?A. Company surely likes to be “in the red”.B. All the colour expressions in the passage come from Britain English.C. Not all the “black” expressions have bad meanings.D. Dollar is called “greenback” because it has trees on the backside.BYou need some bread and milk. But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley(手推车) full of food. What games do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money?The tricks usually start before you walk in. Outside the supermarket entrance, anybody who walks past can smell warm, fresh bread. That makes us hungry and ready to buy lots of food, not just bread.Now you’re inside and, of course, a small basket would be fine, but all they have are trolleys. And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or two products inside. So we may fill it with something. In fact, supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more.Of course, many people shop in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops. So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other products. One new trick is to put red stickers on products. Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red stickers is easy to be noticed, even when there is no reduction! Interestingly, this trick appears to work more with men than with women.There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket. For example, customers often go only to buy milk. So they put it right at the back, forcing you to go past hundreds of shelves full of other products. The position of products on each shelf is also important. The most expensive products are usually at eye-level so you see these immediately. The exception is anything that children might like. These products are on lower shelves so that kids see them.Apart from what you see and smell in a supermarket, what about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music. It’s so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time (and money) in the store. You also move more slowly when the supermarket is busy. Experts suggest it’s better to shop when it’s quieter, on a Monday or a Tuesday for example. And becareful with queues at the checkouts. These are sometimes deliberate(故意), to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait.So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if you can come with just the things you went for.1. Smells from bread in the supermarket ______.A. make you feel hungry and buy more foodB. draw your attention to bread onlyC. make you buy less bread than you needD. force you to leave the supermarket2. According to the passage, supermarkets put red stickers on products to ______.A. make them look more beautifulB. make them different from cheaper onesC. make people think the stickers are for menD. make people think they could save money3. According to the passage, toys for children are usually placed ______.A. on higher shelvesB. on each shelfC. on lower shelvesD. on the back shelves4. It can be learned from Paragraph 6 that supermarkets usually ______.A. stop people lining up at the checkoutsB. close on Monday morningC. play loud and noisy music insideD. make customers feel relaxed5. The passage is mainly about _____.A. several ways supermarkets use to sell more productsB. some advice when people go shopping on the streetC. several rules that every business should followD. some advertisements that make people buy moreCWhen you’re curious about something, and want to know more about it, you can use the way of asking questions. Asking questions is the first step to make discoveries and find interesting answers. The steps below can guide you during the research.Step 1 On a note card or a piece of paper, write down the subject that you are interested in. Just get the main idea down.

By asking questions. On your paper, start writing down questions about the dinosaurs as you think of them:(1) What’s the best weather for dinosaurs to live in?(2) How many kinds of dinosaurs are there?(3) Have dinosaurs really disappeared?Step 4 Armed with your list of questions, you can now go to the nearest library or computer to begin your research. A s you learn more about your subject, you’ll probably discover some new questions. For example, you might discover that dinosaurs disappeared about 65 million years ago. Why? What happened? Asking new questions can help you research your subject more widely.The next time you find something interesting to research, take time to organize your thinking by asking good questions.

After a few minutes the bus made its next stop. A young boy and a girl got on. They were standing on my left when the bus pulled off. I looked at them in surprise and realized that all the window seats were taken up. They could sit but not together. Suddenly a different wave passed through my body and my inner mind gave me the advice to get up. I got up and offered them my seat. The young lady smiled kindly and said thanks. I took another seat and we parted our ways. I don’t remember whether I got off the bus befo re them ornot.Months passed by. Suddenly one day while I was standing at the same bus stop waiting some time for the bus to arrive I heard a voice.“Excuse me, Uncle. ” I looked in the direction of the voice. It was a beautiful young lady.Puzzled, I said, “I do not know you. ”She said, “Do you remember you gave us your window seat?”Puzzled, I said, “Maybe, but what is so great in that?”She said, “If you had not given your seat that day, perhaps I would have not sat with my friend. By sitting together it helped us bridge a misunderstanding(误会) that had been between us forever. Do you know we are getting married next month?”“Good! God bless both of you,” I replied.The young lady again said thank you and went on her journey. I realized the importance of giving that day.( )3.

Do you wonder what you are going to do after high school? Will you continue to go to school? Will you learn a trade? Perhaps it is time to think about your choices and to prepare for them. Some day work will be a big part of your life.What kind of job would be right for your? Think about your interests and your skills. You may like to listen to music, dance, play basketball, or work with computers, You may know how to drive a car or how to get along with people. Knowing both your interests and skills will help make a better plan for your career.To get an idea of what work you would like to do, make a list of your interests and a list of your skills. Think about what you have done to be successful in your interests. After that, brainstorm a list of career choices that might match your interests and skills. You can later keep your lists with the projects and documents that can help you achieve the career you want. They can help you know more clearly about your achievements in school and in the world of work.Roberta Zhan, an art designer, finds her work satisfying because it allows her to use her interests and skills. She enjoyed imagining something in her mind's eye while she was in school. She took art, design, and computer lessons, and also learned about taking photos on her own.Here is what she says about the meaning of work:"If you have a job you like, work means much more than just making money. It means using your talents, making a contribution(贡献), and getting a real sense of satisfaction from doing a job. "( )7. The passage is most probably written to .A. studentsB. teachersC. parentsD. designers( )8.

The passage is mainly aboutA. the real meaning of workB. the importance of interests and skillsC. the journey of Roberta's lifeD. the way of preparing for the future careerDAs an English, I can speak three languages—English, German and French, so do you think the British people are very good language learners? The fact is that they aren’t.Some statistics (数据) from the survey done by the European Commission (欧盟委员会) showed that 62% of the British people only speak English. 38% speak at least one foreign language and 18% speak two or more. Compared with the British people, 56% of the people in other European countries speak at least one foreign language and 28% speak two or more.From this you can see that the British people are famous for not speaking foreign languages and that they are not good language learners in Europe.And the survey also showed that English is the most widely-spoken foreign language. Many European people can have a conversation in English. That’s why my people don’t think it is necessary to learn a foreign language.In Britain, students are not required to learn a foreign language. That means learning a foreign language is only an option at school. In UK schools it is common for children to start learning a foreign language at 11 and many of them give it up at 14. So why don’t students continue learning foreign languages at school? Because they think it is more difficult to get good marks in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.To solve this situation, the British government is looking for different ways to improve language learning at school. One way is to start learning it at a much younger age. Another one is to give school children more choices.Changing the British attitude (态度) to learning foreign languages may be a hard task but the government decides to try!( )11. Which country does the writer come from?A. AmericaB. ChinaC. BritainD. Egypt( )12. Which of the following about the British people is true?A. They are good language learners.B. 62% of them speak two or more languages.C. They are famous for speaking foreign languages.D. More than half of them only speak English.( )13. According to the passage, students in Britain prefer to learn _____.A. science or GermanB. history or GermanC. science or historyD. German or French( )14. In Paragraph 4, “an option” means _____.A. a choiceB. a gameC. a mistakeD. a conversation( )15. What is the best title of the passage?A. Speaking EnglishB. Foreign Language Learning in UKC. Schools in UKD. Young English LearnersEI have received your loving letter from school and I am glad to know that you are becoming responsible(有责任的) enough to decide on your career(职业).You are now in the final year of high school and are going to start further education in college. You know that we belong to different times, and my social life is different from yours. However, all I can say as advice is that you must choose a career wisely. The first consideration is your interest. You can only succeed and feel happy when you do something you enjoy. You must get a job which not only provides you with something useful, but also you are pleased with. Then, you must read a lot in the field(领域)you are aiming at. Also, you should get to know the men and women who work in that field. When mind and heart work together, success is inevitable.No career is more or less important. I think your interest may be in the field of making TV programs. Your good communication skills, your taking an active part in school plays and the prizes you have won in speech competitions all lead you to that direction. So a career in Mass Communication and TV film production will bring luck to you. If you succeed in that field, you will become famous and rich.Think a thousand times before making any final decision about your career. After all, we want you to be a man of success.We all know that you are old enough to think for yourself.With all the best wishes! Your loving father.( )16. The underlined word "inevitable" (in Para. 2) means " ".A. be dissatisfied to seekB. be easy to rememberC. be difficult to getD. be sure to happen( )17. The father mentions the "school plays", and "speech competitions"(in Para. 3)in order to .A. show that he is proud of his sonB. suggest his son should work harder in this fieldC. tell his son he can certainly succeed in this fieldD. hint(暗示)that his son should consider choosing the career he suggests( )18. The father thinks that .A. every career is equally importantB. being famous is more important than being richC. his son is too young to make a decision himselfD. there is no real understanding between parents and children第二节(共5小题；每小题1分, 满分5分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

In Kenya, the famous Great Rift Valley(东非大裂谷) tears across the Africa plains.If you like animals,a safari(野生观兽旅行)might a good choice. Africa is home to many interesting animals, including elephants,giraffes,crocodiles and hippos.Yet the charm of this amazing land is not just the natural beauty. The people of Africa’s different ethnic groups(民族) make the continent colorful with their unique customs and traditions.The Maasai are a major ethnic group in East Africa.

Some eye care professionals (专业人士) say all the screen time has caused more children to have eye problems.Nathan Warford is an optometrist ( 验光师) in Florida, USA. He says he has seen an increase in problems in children.“Some children come into the office because their parents have found that they have red eyes. Others come because their degree of short-sightedness is increasing very fast and their parents are worried,” he said.Part of the problem is that even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, some children don't tell their parents. These children are afraid that their parents would take their games or the computer away.Another part of the problem is that people blink (眨眼睛) less often when they look at the screen. When a person uses a computer or other digital products, he orshe blinks about a third as much as we normally do in everyday life. If we blink less ofte n, our eyes can't stay wet or are too tired and they will not be protected likenormal.( )1.

So colours are sometimes called hot, cold or neutral（中性的）. Red and yellow are hot colours because they make a room feel warmer. They also make the walls seem nearer to us than they really are. We say that blue and green are cold. They can give us the different feeling---the room feels cooler and the walls seem to be farther away. A neutral colours is one that does not affect our feelings. Brown and gray are both neutral, but they may also be put into hot or cold colours to affect our feelings.We can begin to see the importance to choose the colours we want. Although red might be very good for a restaurant, it would be wrong for an art gallery（画廊）. People want to look at the pictures, not the walls behind. White is used to make a small room look large.
