After dinner Mom asked, "Is Jemma coming by tomorrow?" I shrugged ( 耸 肩 ) and said nothing. The next morning, Mom asked, "Today is 14 , what are you and Jemma going to do?" I shrugged again. "How is Jemma?" Mom took a look at me. Then she said, "Will you take these magazines to Grandma, please?" As I walked down the street, a new girl in the neighborhood came towards me, smiling. But I just went 15 her. Grandma welcomed me at the door with a warm hug.
Sitting on the sofa, I noticed a (an) 16 of kids in old-fashioned clothes on the table. Grandma 17 at a girl with short fair hair. "That's Beth Lambert," she said, "My best friend. Until a week before we took this photo." I was surprised at that. "Beth and I were best friends in school. We did everything together. Then one day, she made new friends and said she didn't want to hang out with me anymore. Nothing 18 more than that." I didn't say anything. I couldn't. I knew I'd start crying if I opened my mouth.
Grandma hugged me again. "Simone, sometimes friends grow 19 . It might happen to anyone," she continued. "Then, see him?" Grandma's finger moved to a boy with glasses in the photo. "He lived near me. When I was walking home by myself and I said 'hello' to him. And we became friends."
"So if we want to start a new friendship," she smiled. "One 20 is all it took."
As I was heading home, that new girl appeared again. I went towards her and spoke, "Hello." 学校

Finding Beauty Within
A dear friend sent me a letter and handmade card in the mail today. On
the outside of the card was a cutout picture of a hummingbird in mid-flight.
With its wings, it flew deep into a flower. Below it was a quote ( 引述) by
Russian writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky: "The world will be saved by beauty."
I smiled with both my face and heart when I saw it.
a hummingbird
Looking at it reminded me of all the beauty in this world. I thought about the beautiful green forested mountains of my home. I thought of the fields of summer wildflowers blessing the world with their colors. I thought of the blue oceans that stretched from horizon ( 地平线) to horizon.
I thought of the sunsets in the desert with their deep, rich reds and glorious ( 灿烂的) golds. I thought of all kinds of animals: green hummingbirds, white polar bears, red birds and gray wolves.
I thought of the silver moon smiling down from the sky surrounded by a sea of s tars.
Yet, I knew that it wasn't the beauty of any of those things that would save the world. It was instead the beauty of human souls ( 内心, 心灵) filled with light and love. It was these souls so
full of love for each other and for this world that would save our planet. It was this love working through people that would make this world truly beautiful.
My friend who sent me the card is one of these people. She, her husband and her family are going through so many struggles right now. Still, she continues to share her love and make this world a better place every single day. She continues to work to save our home by giving it the beauty of her soul. She continues to shine her light with her life. May we all do the same.
24．After getting the card, the author .
A．couldn't understand the quote on it
B．was reminded of all the beauty in the world
C．also wrote a letter and sent a card to his/her friend
D．called his/her friend right away to express his/her thanks
25．What does the author think would save the world?
A．Fighting against difficulties in life.
B．Seeing the natural beauty around us.
C．Filling the world with light and love.
D．Building relationships among people.
26．Which of the following is according to the passage?
A．The author's friend loves all kinds of animals.
B．The author's friend often shares beautiful things with him/her.
C．The author believed that any beautiful things would save the world.
D．The author received a card with a picture of a hummingbird from his/her friend.

How to Use a Modern Public Library
Has it been a while since your last visit to a public library? If so, you may be surprised to learn that libraries have changed for the better. It's been years since they were dusty little rooms with books. They have changed themselves into places where you can develop your love of knowledge, meet interesting people, or find out how to start a business.
The 8th Inter-School Musical Show!
The school is hosting the 8th Inter-School Musical Show for Grades 9—11 on December 19 at Harrington
Center, Bank Road at 9 am.
All students are welcome to try out for the show at the audition ( 试演), which will be held on December 8
at 9 am in the school's Central Hall.
For further details, please contact Mr. Black, the secretary of the Music Club.

Check out a book . While libraries still loan out （出借）books, you'll find it easier to get a copy of whatever you're looking for with a cooperative network of area libraries. By such networks, libraries share their books with each other through the use of delivery vehicles. Once the book you've requested is delivered to the nearest branch ( 分 店 ), they will inform you by e-mail, so you
can pick it up.
Check out other things. The library is now a multimedia zone ( 多媒体区
域 ), loaded with information in many formats ( 载体形式 ). You can borrow movies on DVDs, music on CDs and popular magazines. Some libraries even loan out toys and games. If a popular magazine you want isn't offered and the library keeps a list of such requests, they may bring it in when enough interest is shown.
Join reading groups. Libraries will often hold reading-group meetings aimed to various age groups. Perhaps you'd like to learn a language or improve your English, the library may organize a language group you could join. If you have difficulties reading, ask about special reading opportunities. Your library might be able to help you. And you might find it relaxing to bring your small kid to a half-hour Story Time while you sit quietly in a corner with a good b ook.
Start a business using the help of your local library. If you want to have a business of your own, your local library can become a launch ( 发 起 ) space for it. In library books and computers, you can find information on starting a business. Many libraries will help you with locally supplied information about business management shared through chambers of commerce ( 商会会议厅 ) and government agencies, and they will offer printing, faxing and database services you need.
27．Public libraries can help the readers to
.
A ．sell their books on the Internet
B ．make a business meeting in their local library
C ．get a needed book from a library branch nearby
D ．share their books through the use of delivery vehicles
28．According to Paragraph 3, what things may be checked out from a public library? A ．Computer games and cars. B ．Favorite music and arts. C ．Popular magazines and movies. D ．Kid's toys and paintings. 29．According to Paragraph 4, taking a small kid to a half-hour Story Time allows .
A ．the kid to learn a new language
B ．the parent to enjoy quiet reading
C ．the kid to learn some reading skills
D ．the parent to meet their best friends 30．What is the purpose of the passage?
A ．To tell us the importance of public libraries.
B ．To encourage people to work in public libraries.
C ．To share different opinions on operate public libraries.
D ．To introduce the improved services of public libraries.

Handwriting Brings Benefits
In a digital age, we almost never write things by hand. However, many studies have shown that this act has many benefits.
New brain research, led by researchers at Norwegian University of Science and Technology, proves the same: choosing handwriting over using a keyboard results in better learning and memory. "When you write your shopping list or lecture notes by hand, you simply remember the content ( 内 容 ) better afterwards," said Audrey van der Meer, author of the study.
The study used some equipment to record brain wave ( 波 ) activity. The participants ( 参 与者 ) included 12 young adults and 12 children. This is the first time that children have participated in such a study. Each subject was asked to write by hand and type on a keyboard while wearing a hood ( 风帽 ) with over 250 electrodes ( 电极 ). The sensors ( 传感器 ) in the electrodes are very sensitive and pick up the electrical activity that takes place in the brain. Each examination took 45 minutes per person.
The results showed that the brain in both young adults and children is much more active when writing by hand than when typing on a keyboard. According to Van der Meer, plenty of senses are activated by pressing a pen on paper, seeing the letters written and hearing the sound made while writing. These sense experiences build touch between different parts of the brain, opening the brain up for learning.
Van der Meer believes that the outcomes stress the importance of children being challenged to draw and write at an early age, especially at school. "Learning to write by hand is a bit slower process, but it's important for children to go through the tiring phrase of learning to write by hand," she said.
The hand movements used to form the shapes of letters are beneficial in several ways. "If you use a keyboard, you use the same movement for each letter. Writing by hand requires control of your fine motor ( 精细动作 ) skills and senses. It's important to put the brain in a learning state as often as possible," Van der Meer added. For example, you might use a keyboard to write an essay, but you should take notes by hand during a lecture.
31．What do we know about the study?
A ．The study involved 250 participants altogether.
B ．Typing on a keyboard helps you remember a lot of things.
C ．All the participants have to take a 45 minutes' examination.
D ．Learning to write by hand is a bit difficult but it is a fast process.

32．Why does the brain become more active when writing by hand according to Van der Meer?
A．Writing by hand is easier on the brain.
B．More senses are made active when writing by hand.
C．Writing by hand requires the same skills and senses.
D．Typing on a keyboard doesn't put the brain in a learning state.
33．How does Van der Meer think handwriting benefits people?
A．It allows people to write better essays.
B．It increases people's interest in learning.
C．It helps people develop fine motor skills.
D．It allows children to become more patient.
四、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

Whether it is for a special festival, to express thanks or to just let someone know that you care about them, giving gifts is a common custom. The purpose of giving gifts may be similar, but the tradition varies from country to country. A gift of respect in one place may be considered rude in another. Take a look at three gift-giving traditions.
India
If you are invited to someone's home in India, you should bring a small
gift, whether it's a box of chocolates or some flowers. Gifts shouldn't be
wrapped ( 包裹) in black or white colors, because they are considered unlucky.
Instead, use bright colors such as green, red or yellow. When giving money for any occasion, it should have an odd number ( 奇数) value. That's believed to bring good luck. Instead of receiving a gift with both hands, Indians generally only use their right hand because left hands are considered unclean.
Japan
For most Japanese, the ritual ( 礼节) of giving presents is more important than the gifts themselves. The correct way is to present or receive gifts with both hands. Every gift should be wrapped. That's because uncovered gifts are considered disrespectful. To show politeness and thanks, those who are receiving the gift may turn it down once or twice before finally accepting it. Gifts should be given in pairs, but four should be avoided just like in China. Lucky numbers also included eight. Eight is said to bring prosperity ( 兴旺) .
Native America
While it may be common for guests to prepare gifts for hosts, this is different in Native American communities. From weddings to birthday celebrations, guests are the ones who receive gifts. Gifts are usually homemade arts and crafts-made by hand to show love, respect and appreciation. 34．What is a common custom to express thanks or to show your caring about others?
35．In which country only use their right hands to receive gifts?
36．Why do gifts should be wrapped in Japan?
37．What are gifts like in Native America?
38．What is the passage mainly talking about?

一一一一
帮助汉高祖打平天下的大将韩信，在未得志时，境况很是困苦。

那时候，他时常往城下钓鱼，希望碰着好运气，便可以解决生活。

但是，这究竟不是可靠的办法，因此，时常要饿着肚子。

幸而在他时常钓鱼的地方，有很多漂母（清洗丝棉絮或旧衣布的老婆婆）在河边作工的，其中有一个漂母，很同情韩信的遭遇，便不断的救济他，给他饭吃。

韩信在艰难困苦中，得到那位以勤劳克苦仅能以双手勉强糊口的漂母的恩惠，很是感激她，便对她说，将来必定要重重的报答她。

那漂母听了韩信的话，很是不高兴，表示并不希望韩信将来报答她的。

后来，韩信替汉王立了不少功劳，被封为楚王，他想起从前曾受过漂母的恩惠，便命从人送酒菜给她吃，更送给她黄金一千两来答谢她。

这句成语就是出于这个故事的。

它的意思是说：受人的恩惠，切莫忘记，虽然所受的恩惠很是微小，但在困难时，即使一点点帮助也是很可贵的；到我们有能力时，应该重重地报答施惠的人才是合理。

【感恩小结】
感恩，是结草衔环，是滴水之恩涌泉相报。

感恩，是一种美德，是一种境界。

感恩，是值得你用一生去等待的一次宝贵机遇。

感恩，是值得你用一生去完成的一次世纪壮举。

感恩，是值得你用一生去珍视的一次爱的教育。

感恩，不是为求得心理平衡的喧闹的片刻答谢，而是发自内心的无言的永恒回报。

感恩，让生活充满阳光，让世界充满温馨……
