Because they managed to save something．B. Because they hope to make more in the next year．C. Because they have different kinds of fish in Yangtze River．D. Because they want to show respect to the important guests．28.According to the passage，we know that ______ ．A. Chinese people can place the fish wherever they likeB. Chinese people only eat the head of the fish on New Year's EveC. Chinese people eat mud carp to have good luck for the next yearD. Chinese people choose every kind of fish for the New Year feast29.What's the writer's main purpose in writing this passage？______A. To invite foreigners to come to China during the Spring Festival．B. To help people realize different fish have different meanings．C. To tell people the customs of eating fish on Chinese New Year．D. To introduce the Spring Festival to the people outside China．DDo you have the experience of staying up all night playing video games？Do you feel happy after that？More and more people are attracted by the choice when it comes to gaming：You can create your favourite characters and stories．It gives you a chance to step out of everydaylife into an imaginary world．And there are shooting games where you can let out your anger and other bad emotions in the situations where you kill people with guns．You can get excited from the games．However，can these kinds of games really be good for us？Should we worry about their effects on our health？Popular games like Grand Theft Auto have been responsible for the falling grades at school and acts of violence （暴力）．Internet safety adviser，Alan MacKenzie，thinks "many people will just think that a game is just a game，not realizing what's exactly in there"．He gives an example of the violence，which he believes is totally improper for anybody，not to mention children．Others will argue that gaming is a harmless form of entertainment（休闲、娱乐）．They believe it benefits children in life and studies．They listed many facts that a number of top students are video game lovers and quite a lot of computer programmers had spent a certain amount of time on computer games．They insist that those are strong evidence to prove that playing video games could actually be good for us．Some games are educational and using games certainly can help children learn good qualities．Studies have also shown that the skills used in playing games can cause growth in certain areas of the brain．Computer games are also a kind of relaxing．A report said that computer games are good for children and teach them essential life skills．Researchers found that children who spend hours every day on a certain video game may not be rotting their brains．A Dutch liberal MEP said，"Video games are in most cases not dangerous"．The findings are likely to surprise many people．Edward Smith，the professor in Oxford University，believes gaming is having a positive effect on their social lives．With games like Halo and World of Warcraft often being played in groups，when your group works together to win the game，your sense of achievement is higher than when winning by yourself．So every coin has two sides．If video games are used in a proper way，we can all take part．30.What does the word " evidence" mean in Para 3？______A. Advice for students．B. Various worries．C. Different activities．D. Facts for belief．31.Paragraph 2mainly talks about ______ ．A. Computer games are bad for healthB. Computer games can cause many problemsC. Popular games are both dangerous and interestingD. Popular games lead to students' falling grades at school32.From the passage we can infer that ______ ．A. Video games are not dangerousB. working together is better than working aloneC.

Should computer games be responsible for the falling grades at school？B. Should computer games be improved to be more educational？C. Should we pay attention to children's game playing？D. Should we allow children to play computer games？四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）34.Surfing，a sport game，is the name for riding water waveson special boards．Did you know that surfing has beenaround for more than 200years？At first the sport was harderthan it is today．For one thing the early surfboards were heavy．They weighed as much as 150pounds．A surfer needed great strength just to get the board from the beach to the water! Also the early players didn't ride standing up．They rode just lying on their stomachs．That was the only way to control the large boards．Those players lived in the islands of Polynesia，in the South Pacific．In 1778the players took the sport to Hawaii．There surfing quickly became popular．The beaches and waves of Hawaii are perfect for surfing．In 1907，a 24-year-old young man，George Freeth，was the first person to ride a wave in the United States．George Freeth was advertised as "The Man Who Can Walk on Water．" Thousands of people came here on the big red cars to watch his specialperformance．George had to move his big 8-foot long，solid wood，200pound surf board and wait for a suitable wave，catch it，and to the amazement of all，ride onto Redondo Beach while standing upright．He surfed in Redondo Beach in California．For years the sport of surfing spread slowly．In the 1950s surfing was known as a young people's sport because mostly young people seemed to enjoy it．In 1961rules for surfers were written．The players themselves，along with some surfboard companies，made up the rules．Today surfers are looked upon as sportsmen．Southern California is still the surfing center of the United States．Thousands of people surf there．Thousands more are fans of famous surfers．Surfing is here to stay．Surfers must still be strong．To surf，a person should be able to swim well，both on top of and under the water．A surfer must also be able to float （漂浮）for a long time．A good surfer must keep his or her eyes open at all times，even underwater，because he never knows what will happen next moment．Surfing is exciting，and also dangerous．Were the early surfboards heavy？______How did the early surfers control the surfboard？______Why did the sport of surfing quickly become popular in Hawaii？______When were the rules made up for surfers？______How can you become a good surfer？______五、书面表达（本大题共2小题，共30.0分）35.假如你是李华，下周你们学校组织演讲比赛（Speech Competition），演讲的题目" My dream"，你打算邀请你们班的交换生 Tom 参加．请用英语写一封电子邮件，告诉他比赛的时间和地点，如何报名，以及他需要准备什么．提示词语：3：00， next Friday， the School Meeting Room，sign up， school website，phone， 5minutes， PPT提示问题：● When and where are you going to have the speech competition？● How to sign up for the competition？● What do you advise Tom to prepare？Dear Tom，I'm writing to invite you to join in our school's speech competition． The topic is" My D ream"．I'm looking forward to your early reply．Yours，Li Hua36.某英文报社正就我的一次难忘的旅行"My unforgettable journey"这一话题展开讨论．假如你是李华，请你用英语写一篇短文给报社投稿，谈谈你最难忘的一次旅行，内容包括：时间、地点、你在那里的活动，以及你的感受．提示词语：last summer， Qingdao， swim， boat， climb mountain， eat， happy 提示问题：When and where did you go？What did you do there？How did you feel？。

He didn’t like to spend Christmas in hospital. Though the doctor did his best, Mr. Smith didn’t get better. So on Christmas Day he was still in hospital. He spent a bad day in bed thinking that he missed a lot of fun on such a happy day.The next day the doctor told him that he might be well enough to leave hospital in time for the New Year. Mr. Smith was very happy to think that he would spend New Year’s Day outside hospital. Soon Mr. Smith left hospital and on New Year’s Eve he went to a party. He enjoyed himself there. But he drank too much. On his way home that night, he had a fall and broke his left leg.

Mr. Smith would have to spend New Year’s Day ______.A. at homeB. at a partyC. in hospitalD. outside hospitalBDo you know why different animals or pests(昆虫) have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves. Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops(庄稼). When crops aregreen, locusts look green. But as the harvest (收获)time comes, locusts change to thesame brown colour as crops have. Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night. If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colours is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters. This is because they have the colours much like the trees. Have you ever found an even stranger act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid (液体) when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over(散开), its enemies(敌人) cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has livedup to now though it is not strong at all.51.From the passage we learn that locusts________.A. are small animalsB. are easily found by birdsC. are dangerous to their enemiesD. change their colours to protect themselves.52. How can pests with different colours from plants keep out of danger?A. They run away quickly.B. They have the colours much like their enemies.C. They hide themselves by day and appear at night.D. They have to move quietly.53.Bears and lions can keep safe because________.A. they have the colours much like the treesB. they move quietlyC. they like brown and grey coloursD. they live in forests54.Why can the kind of fish live up to now?A. Because it is very big and strong.B. Because liquid it sends out can help it escape from its enemies.C. Because the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies.D. Because it swims faster than any other fish.55.Which is the best title for this passage?A. The Change of Colours for Animals and Pests.B. Colours of Different Animals and pests.C. The Main Use of Colours for Animals and Pests.D. Some Animals and Pests.CWe are all busy talking about and using the Internet, but how many of us know the history of the Internet? Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up in the 1960s. At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks didn’t work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way computer network system would keep on working all the time. At first the Internet was only used by the government, but in the early 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks were allowed to use it, too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. By the start of 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. Scientists had also developed software that made “surfing”the Internet easier. Today it is easy to get on-line and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day. Sending e-mail is more and more popular among young people. The Internet has now become one of the most important parts of people’s life.56. How long has the Internet been used?A. For over 10 years.B. For over 20 years.C. For over 40 years.D. For over 60 years.57. What would happen when one computer in the network broke down after the new network system was set up?A. The other computers would wait.B. The other computers would still work.C. Some of the others still worked.D. The other computers wouldn’t work.58. Which of the following used the Internet first?A. Hospitals.B. Universities.C.Banks.D. The government.59. What is true about computers in the 1990s?A. They became cheaper and easier to use.B.They became larger and larger.C.People couldn’t buy them anywhere.D.People could get information only from them.60. What can we infer from the last sentence?A. People will die without the Internet.B. All people should set up their own network.C. People live easily without the Internet.D. People will more and more depend on the Internet.DIn 1620．about half the USA was covered by forests．Today the forests have almost gone．A lot of good land has gone with them，leaving only sand(沙地)．China doesn’t want to copy(抄)the USA’s example．We’re planting more and more trees．We’ve built the “Great Green Wall”of trees across northern(北部的)part of our country．The“Great Green Wall”is 7，000 kilometres long．and between 400 and l，700 kilometres wide．It will stop the wind from blowing the earth away．It will stop the sand from movingtowards the rich farmland (农田)in the south．More“Great Green Walls”areneeded．Trees must be grown all over the world．“Great Green Walls”will make the world better.61.
