11、“Mommy，look!” cried my daughter，Darla，pointing to a chicken hawk in the air.
“Uh huh，” I answered，driving，lost in thought about the timetable of my day.

“What’s the matter，sweetheart?” I asked.

Dinner，baths and phone calls 2 the hours until bedtime.
“Come on，Darla，time for bed!” She raced past me up the stairs. Tired，I kissed her and tucked her in. “Mom，I forgot to give you something!” she said.

“Maybe she was not asleep yet. Why don’t you7 ?” he said.
I followed his advice，8 it was my own idea. I opened her door gently. In Darla’s hand I cou ld see her paper all crumpled (弄皱的) up. She had torn into small pieces a big red heart with a poem she had written titled，“Why I Love My Mother?”

15、I have come to realize that life is a long journey. Whether we choose to keep moving around, or we choose to stay in one place, we are on a journey. That journey is not an easy one because every day it makes us face new problems in new ways.
When I was a little boy, I always looked forward to the next trip or the next holiday. Maybe it is because we lived in a small and boring town. When I finished school, I kept moving. In the first year out of school, I travelled with a friend and we visited over 17 countries in Europe, working in different jobs as we went. After this, I started studying. I studied at three different universities and lived in five different towns. That was my life. There was always someone else to get to know. All this carried on for many years until I got married and had my own family. When you stay in the same place, with the same persons, you start a whole new journey.
Then you will stay in the same town, choosing one place to live and one job to remain in. There you are challenged to face life, doing things such as trying hard to get along well with your boss. You have to keep on at your job when you feel
like giving it up and traveling again.
So rather than move around on different trips, you are on a new journey. This journey of staying still is just as important as all the travels in the world.
1．Why did the writer like moving around when he was a boy?
A．Because he liked being with friends.
B．Because he wanted to know about the world.
C．Because he lived in a boring and small town.
D．Because he didn’t love his family.
2．Which one is TRUE according to the passage?
A．The writer went to Europe alone when he left school.
B．The writer kept moving during his whole life.
C．After the writer got married, he tried different jobs.
D．The writer thinks staying still is as important as traveling around.
3．What is the best title?
A．Go traveling B．Life is a long journey
C．Stay still D．Travel makes you better

16、When my family moved to America from in 2016 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States. I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive（敏感）Americans are and how they dislike the description "old". I then apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.
In China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect old people because they know they can learn from their rich experience. However, in the United States, people think "growing old" is a problem since "old" shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in
the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. After that, I changed the way I had been with old people. It is not that I don't respect them anymore; I still respect them, but now I don't show my feelings through words.
1．Jack brought the couple their food very fast because _______.
A．the manager asked him to do so B．he respected the elderly
C．the couple wanted him to do so D．he wanted more pay
2．When Jack called the couple “elderly”, they became _______.
A．nervous B．satisfied C．unhappy D．excited
3．In Jack’s hometown, _______.
A．peop le dislike being called “old”
B．people are proud of being old
C．many people reach the age of seventy or eighty
D．the elderly are the first to get food in restaurants
4．Which of the following is TRUE?
A．The more Jack explained, the angrier the couple got.
B．Jack wanted to show his feelings through words after his experience.
C．The manager went back to the table and apologized to the couple.
D．From this experience, Jack learned more about American culture.

18、阅读下列短文，从各题所给的A．B．C．和D项中选出最佳的选择，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑.
It may be hard to believe, but the American Revolution(革命)—the war that freed the American states from British control—began over a cup of tea. Tea was not the only thing that caused the war, of course, but it played a very big part. The British people’s love of tea is well-known. When the British won control over mush of North America in the early 1700s, they brought their tea- drinking habits with them. Tea quickly became the continents most popular drink. As tea could not be grown locally, just as in Britain, it was shipped into the country—mostly from India.
In the early 1700s, the Britain government made a special deal with the East India Company, as an English trading company. They agreed that no other company was allowed to bring tea to Britain or any country controlled by Britain, including America. It was a great deal for the East India Company, since it meant that the company could decide whatever price it wanted for its products. Anditalways decided on a high price!
In North America, the local people did not like having to pay such high prices. Instead of overpaying for tea from the British, they turned to Dutch traders, who secretly brought tea to the country that was just as good—and much less expensive. Although this broke the law, the American people didn’t care. They got the same cup of tea at a much lower price.
Th e East India Company, however, didn’t like this at all. By the 1760s, they were losing millions of pounds each year to Dutch traders—a huge amount of money in a time when ￡60 a year was considered a good income. Instead of reducing their prices to compete with the Dutch, the company asked the British government for help and the government agreed. In 1767, the British introduced new law that increased the prices of all goods which were brought into America. These laws helped make the East India Company even richer and forced local people to pay much more for everything. The American leaders asked the British government not to do so, but the British refused to listen. These unfair laws
increased Americans’ anger about British rule and the rest, as they say, is history. 1．In the early 1700s where did most tea drunk in America come from? A．China B．India C．America D．Britain 2．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to________.
A．the tea maker
B．the American government
C．the British government
D．the East India Company
3．Why did may Americans begin to buy tea from the Dutch traders?
A．The tea was much cheaper.
B．The tea was a lot healthier.
C．They could buy it more easily.
D．They didn't want to support the British.
4．What did the East India Company do to stop losing money?
A．It reduced the price of its tea.
B．It improved the taste of its tea.
C．It introduced a new kind of tea.
D．It asked the British government for help.
5．What is the passage mainly about?
A．Tea trade in eighteenth-century America.
B．The relationship between America and Britain.
C．A reason for the start of the American Revolutionary War.
D．The introduction of British tea-drinking habits into America.

19、Dear Li Ming
I am writing to you to tell you something about my worries.
I have a lot of hobbies. I like listening to music and playing ball games with my classmates. I spend much time on my study, so I can only listen to music after class and play basketball after school with my classmates.
But you see the new class rules have come out. I feel very stressed and worried now. I can’t find any time for my hobbies.
I can do nothing but write to you about my ideas.
I agree that we shouldn’t ha ve snacks in the classroom. We should wear trainers in PE lessons. I think we should be allowed to listen to music after class. We can relax ourselves and then we will focus on our study in class. You should allow us to play basketball after school. If you disagree, how can I find other time to do so?
I will be very happy if I hear from you soon.
Zhou Yang。
