一、阅读理解 (共3题；共22分)
1. （6分）阅读理解
Look up in the sky. Do you see any clouds? What do they look like ?Some clouds are fluffy（绒毛状的）and white, like cotton balls. Others are dark, almost black, and make you hold an umbrella. At sunrise and sunset, clouds can look red, purple, or yellow，as if they were colored with crayons. But what are clouds anyway?
You can't reach out and touch the clouds, but you can make your own in a bottle.
You need :
An adult helper
A huge, empty glass container（容器）
A metal strainer（滤网）
Hot water
Ice
Do these:
Step1. Have your helper fill the container with hot water ,leave it there for two minutes, then pour out most of the water, leaving just an inch or two at the bottom of the container.
Step2. It's your turn now. Put the strainer over the mouth of the container. Fill the strainer with ice. Watch the container.
What happened?
A cloud formed in the container! Some of the hot water at the bottom of the container turned into the hot water vapor. The water vapor rose and met with cold air coming off the ice. When the water vapor condensed（凝结）,it formed a cloud. Hot air rises ad carries with it lots of water vapor. The higher the air rises, the more it cools down. Soon the cold air can't hold all the water vapor so it starts turning into tiny water drops, and becomes a cloud.
（1）What is the passage mainly talk about?
A . The weight of a cloud
B . How clouds are formed
C . The color of the clouds
D . Why clouds are fluffy
（2）What do you do right after you pour most of the water out of the container?
A . Find some hot water
B . Put the strainer over the container
C . Fill the strainer with the ice
D . Fill the container with the ice

Dear Liz，
My stay in Thailand has certainly been the experience of my life．
Life is busy and exciting．Bangkok is just like any other big city with a population of 10 million and heavy traffic．I'm very lucky because my host family is in a nice quiet area outside the city．There are Mr. and Mrs. Phairat, their son Sanan, who is 18, the daughter Chinda, who is 16, and Grandpa and Grandma．
I go to an international school with Sanan and Chinda．The school teaches about 70 percent in English，and 30 percent in Thai. I've learned some spoken language，but Thai writing is very difficult．The cooking lesson is my favourite．I'm learning all about Thai food and culture People don't use chopsticks here，but spoons and forks．When I come back，I'm going to cook you a real Thai meal．
Last weekend we visited some temples．We also drove to Pattaya beach near Bangkok．I thought it was great，but Sanan and Chinda say that next month they're taking me to Phuket Island，where the beaches are even more beautiful．The month after next，we're going to travel to Mr．Phairat's hometown in the north of Thailand．The Phairats own land there，and they have two elephants．I'm going to ride those elephants — and even wash them．Sanan and Chinda say it's really fun．I'm amazed by everything in this country，especially by the elephants．Elephants are an important pan of Thai culture and way of life．They have been a traditional symbol(象征)of Thailand for many years in times of war and peace．In the seventh century，a Thai king trained 20,000 elephants for battle．
I'll tell you all about my Thai boxing(拳击)lessons next time I write．
Love,
Mandy

二、选词填空 (共2题；共15分)
4. （10分）阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。

在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。

Literature is a word used to describe written as well as spoken material. Generally speaking, it is often used to describe anything from creative imagination, including works of poetry, drama and fiction.
Then why read literature, since it is often imaginary and seems unconnected with real life?
A lot of us read literature for enjoyment and relaxation. It's always pleasant to read some interesting books in our spare time. In a modern life full of stress, it is our common wish to read some imaginary works and look for relaxation from the stress in life.
Reading literature is more than fun, it also allows us to get knowledge. As a general rule, literature represents a language of a people, and it often helps us know more about the traditions, attitudes and values of the age in which it was written.
Sometimes literature can even offer us new, creative ways to have a better understanding of the world. It introduces us to new worlds of experiences. We enjoy the comedy and the tragedy of poems, stories and plays, and we may even grow through our literary journey with books. At last we may discover meaning in literature by looking at what the writer says and how he or she says it. In some ways, we explore the human condition and study the way they think and feel the way they feel. Literature helps us think clearly and encourages us to open minds.
So we can certainly say literature is of great importance to us. Why not get going with one poem, drama or fiction at once?

When I was a young child, my parents often told me that it was time that taught a man everything.
I didn't understand and wondered why1had such a big influence2a person. I thought I could grow up quickly to find it out as an adult. But now,3I come to knock at the door of adulthood, I feel4to express my own opinion on this saying. I know that I am just a high school student with very few experiences. There're are still many things waiting for me in the future, yet I would like to express myself in a childish voice.
I once read this sentence, "To make this world a happy place in which to live, you had better5yourself and your heart, instead of the whole world."I was shocked. It made me think about6itself. There are so many things around us that7our will. We can't force life to follow our wishes. The earth won't stop turning no matter whether we8it or not. What we can do is just to make9suit the world. I think we should learn to accept10life gives us, no matter whether it's the spring sunlight or the winter snowfall, and try to be happy.
The pop song Grandmother by Jay Chou is my favorite. I'm deeply moved by this beautiful song. I always try to11every pleasant thing in my life, but now 1 see that I don't catch most of the pleasant moments. It is more likely that they slip by(流逝) and leave you12regretful. I realize that I'm not just living for myself and that there are others I should13such as my parents, friends, and so on. They all pay attention to my growing up,14it's just a little progress.
