Together, they got out ofthe forest to safety.“Oh,thank you, Snake!” said Owl. “That was so kind. I’m sorry.

It is the end of the semester and your teacher gives you your report card. You look at it and your heart stops because you realize that your parents are going to be very angry. This is the classic case of a bad report card! There is nothing you can do to change the past. So, what do you do now?A disappointing report card is something that almost all students will experience at least once in their lives. Grades are how most schools evaluate （评价）students and they are pretty important. The problem is that we do not always get good grades we (or our parents) want. After a bad report card, it is important to figure out what to do next.The first thing to do is talk to your teacher. Find out how your grades were calculated. Was the problem a bad test, lack ofparticipation （参与）in class, or a failure to complete homework? Next, if the problem is something you can solve on your won (such as not doing your homework), make a promise to change your behaviour! However, if you have been studying hard and still got a bad grade, you probably need some extra help with your classes. Talk to your teacher and explain your situation. He or she will tell you where you can receive the extra help you need. Then, make a detailed plan of how you will improve your grades. Write down the plan and have it ready when you take to your parents. That’s good way to make your parents less angry.While all parents want their children to get good grades, most understand that not every report card will be perfect. The important thing is that you show your parents you have a plan to improve your grades for next time. Always remember, many of the world’s most successful people failed many times before they became successful. They learn ed from their failures, and you should too!69. What is the problem with the grades?A. Most schools evaluate students by using grades.B. It’s important to get good grades.C. We don’t always get good grades we want.D. Grades are sometimes incorrect.70. Which of the following is not a cause of a bad report card?A. There was something wrong with the test itself.B. You studied hard enough for the test.C. You didn’t take part in enough group work in class.D. You failed to finish your homework.71. ________ is a good way to make your parents less angry.A. Telling your parents the test was too difficult for youB. Understanding all parents want their children to get good gradesC. Showing your parents you have a detailed plan to improve your gradesD. Explaining why you couldn’t complete your homework on time72. The underlined work “your situation” in the text probably means “________”.A. You had no idea about how your grades were calculated.B. You have made a promise to change some bad behaviour.C. You have been studying hard, but you still got bad grades.D. You have had a detailed plan to improve your grades.73. Why does the writer mention （提及）”successful people” in paragraph 4?A. to compare successful people with unsuccessful peopleB. to describe whether they had good grades or bad gradesC. to encourage students to become successful like those peopleD. to explain that even successful people fail from time to time74. The text above is written to ________.A. encourage students to get good grades C. share ways to deal with bad report cardsB. make parents less angry D. find excuses for bad gradesB.Choose the best answer and complete the passageWould you like to be comfortable talking to other people? Holding conversations may help.Holding conversations may not seem like a skill. __75__, everyone talks to other people frequently （频繁地）. But talking to new people makes many people nervous.Here are some ways to make conversations more fun and less awkward （尴尬的）.Body languageAs strange as it may seem, much __76__ happens without any words.The way you stand and act tells people a lot about you. When you’re talking with someone, stand up straight and look them in the eye. This shows that you’re confident. And if you’re nervous, acting like you’re confident can help you feel more confident. When you’re listening, look at the other person. Lean forward to show that you’re interested in what they’re saying.Back and forthA good conversation is not a __77__, which means that both people need to participate. If you’re doing all the talking , pause to give the other person time to speak. If they don’t say anything, try asking them a question.Questions can also help if you’re struggling （挣扎）to think of something to say. If you ask the other person a question, they’ll talk for a while. Maybe they’ll say something relate with and can reply. to. People are generally __78__ to find others with similar interests.When you ask questions, try to come up with open-ended ones. That means questions where the answer is more than just “yes” or “no.” Open - ended questions in English tend to start with who, what, when, where and why.Don’t fear__79__.Don’t panic if the conversation has quiet moments. Every conversation has some. Think of them as opportunities to change the subject to something you’re interested in. You could also comment on （评论）something you’ve done recently. Or once again, you can ask a question about the other person.So if you’re shy, be brave, ask a question, and start a conversation. As with any skill, you will __79__ on holding conversations with time.75. A. Above all76. A. emotion77. A. dialogue78. A. difficult79. A. conclusions80. A. increase B. In briefB. communicationsB. gameB. faithfulB. questionsB. improveC. After allC. informationC. discussionC. excitedC. conversationsC. betterD. Even thoughD. situationD. speechD. honestD. silenceD. riseC.Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words.A local primary school is considering using tablet computers （平板电脑）in all classrooms from next year. The following text has been written by a teacher at the school.Should we use tablet computers in the classroom?The use of tablet computers （or simply“tablets”）in the classroom has become an increasingly popular choice in many primary schools across the country, including many in our local area. It is important that we consider this opportunity, but we must also be a ___81___ ofthe problems.On one hand, there are many a ___82___ to use tablets in the classroom.Firstly, tablets could improve productivity （效率）during the school day. Because of their familiarity with computers and mobile phones, many of our students can type faster than they can write by hand. T___83___, using tablets in the classroom could reduce the time it takes for them to complete tasks. Additionally, there are endless tablet functions （功能）which could provide interesting teaching a ___84___. For example, we could play computer games to teach Maths, or make simple flashes to show how magnets behave. Also, students could take photos outdoors and then use them for writing tasks.However, we must also consider the possible problems with introducing tablets to our classrooms. Some students may play with the tablets instead of f___85___ on their work. Another problem is that, while many students can use tablets already, many of our teachers are not good at it and would need to be trained. We may also have problems with the tablets breaking, which would be very expensive to r___86___. This is in addition to the cost of buying the tablets in the first place.All in all, even though using tablets in the classroom may have many problems, it seems that it would be a wonderful opportunity for students and teachers at our school. There are a lot of costs indeed, but it would c___87___ prove to be a worthwhile investment（物有所值的投资）.D.Answer the questions.Dear Grandma and Grandpa,As you may have heard from my parents, I’m in China right now on a cultural exchange program. I’m enjoying my time here very much. I have made new friends here, many of whom are locals. Through my interaction （相互交流）with them, I’ve noticed some interesting cultural differences. One ofthe most obvious （明显的）cultural differences is the size of food portions in restaurants. Back home in America, the food portions are usually larger than those I’ve seen in China. We’re even used to seeing super-sized dishes in somerestaurants.However, in Asia, food portions are generally not extremely large. I’m must encouraged to eat until I’m full and enjoy different kinds of food. Eating out in Asia is often a big social affair （社交活动）. People here eat out a lot. There are all kinds ofrestaurants. And there are food stands and food carts-even on the sidewalk （人行道）.Another interesting aspect of eating out is the way food is served. Back home in America, each diner orders their own meal. When people eat out in Asia, they usually order food to share. Nearly every time I eat out with friends in China, each ofus has our own bowl of rice or noodles, and we share the rest of the dishes. This is an excellent way to try new foods! One thing that makes me confused is the way people pay for food at a restaurant. In the U.S. we often ask for separate （分开的）checks, so we each pay for our own meal. But here, if diners decide to pay separately, they typically don’t request separate checks. Instead, they give money to one person who pays the bill. People also don’t tip the server. Instead, there is often a service charge added to the bill.I hope you are doing well. I’ll write you again!Love,Margaret88. Margaret has made many local friends during her cultural exchange program, hasn’t she?____________________________________________________________________89. What’s the culture difference in the size of food portions between China and America?____________________________________________________________________90. Why do people in Asia like eating out a lot?____________________________________________________________________91. What does Margaret think of the way food is served in China?____________________________________________________________________92. How do people usually pay the bill in America?____________________________________________________________________93. Do you like the way of eating out in China or in America? Why?____________________________________________________________________Ⅶ.Writing.94. Write at least 60 words about the topic“A thank-you letter to ______”. （以“给……的一封感谢信”为题写一篇不少于60 个词的短文。

However, bridge-building experts around the world thought that it was impossible. It had never been done before.After much discussion, he made his son Washington, a great engineer, believe that the bridge could be built.The project started well, but a few months later, an accident took the life of John Roebling. Washington was badly hurt and he was not able to walk or talk. However, Washington never lost his heart. He still wanted to complete the bridge. But all he could do was to move one finger. So he decided to make the best use of it. By moving his finger, he slowly developed a way of communicating with his wife.He touched his wife's arm with his finger, “telling” her that he wan ted her to call the engineers again. Then he used the same way to tell the engineers what to do. The project carried on again.For 13 years, Washington tapped out (敲出) his instructions with his finger on his wife's arm, until the bridge was finally completed. Today the Brooklyn Bridge stands as a monument(纪念碑) to one man's unbeatable spirit.It is also a monument to engineers and their teamwork, and to their faith in a man who was considered crazy by half the world.（1）Why did the bridge-building experts think John's idea was impossible?A .

Four out of 10 babies born in the United States do not form a strong relationship with either parent, and they will pay for that the rest of their lives.New research from Princeton University confirms what other researchers have already found: The number of babies born into families that are too poorly equipped(装备、配备) to give them a fair chance of having a successful life is very big.That finding is supported by many other research Projects, including a study from the Universityof Rochester showing that nearly one-third of U.S. parents don't know what to expect from their new horns, or how to help them grow and learn and get along with others. Babies, as others have pointed out, don't come with an owner's manual.The basic problem, according to the Princeton study, is 40 percent of infants in the U.S. live in fear or distrust of their parents, and that will turn into aggressiveness（侵犯）, defiance（挑衅）and hyperactivity（多动） as they grow into adults.Of that number, 25 percent don't have a close relationship with their parents because the parents don't satisfy their needs. And 15 percent find their parents so troubling that they will avoid them whenever possible.That will not necessarily result in a lifetime of violence(暴力), but it will make living a successful life much more difficult."They can overcome(克服) it," sociologist (社会科学家) Sophie Moullin of Princeton, lead author(作者) of that study, said in a telephone interview. "It's not a make or break situation, but they might find it harder to control their behavior."Moullin, along with coauthors from Columbia University and the University of Bristol in England, analyzed(分析) more than 100 research projects, to reach their conclusions.There are many factors, including poverty(贫穷), ignorance（无知）, and stress among parents who are so busy with their own problems that a new child is sometimes more than they can deal with.Yet strong relationships, the researchers say, are amazingly simple to achieve.（1）According to the writing style of the passage, it may be a(n) _________.A . news reportB . book reportC . novelD . review（2）What is the meaning of the underlined word "manual" in Paragraph 3?A . An actor who tells you how to take care of a baby.B . A book that tells you how to do or operate something.C . A TV show that tells you how to make a relationship with your baby.D . A radio program explaining how to look after your baby.（3）What do you think is the best title of this passage?A . It's harder to control children's behavior.B . What a little love means to a little one.C . The problems of the parents in the United States.D . The problems of the children in the United Sates.（4）What may be discussed in the following paragraph?A . Findings of other similar project concerning this topic.B . Examples of the results of lacking string relationships.C . Simple ways of achieving strong relationships with a baby.D . Reasons for failing in building up string relationships with a child.3. （4分）Many people don’t think that the number 13 is a lucky number. Many hotels do not have a 13th floor. The floors go from 12 to 14, and there is no number13. Some people will never sit at a table with 12 other people. They will tell someone to go or ask another person to sit with them.No one really knows why people do not like the number 13. Perhaps one reason is that when people began to count, they used ten fingers and two hands. This made 12. They could not count more.Some Christians (基督徒) say that 13 is not lucky because there were 13 people at a meal the day before Jesus (耶稣) was killed (被杀). In a story about the old Greek (希腊的) gods, 12 gods were asked to a meal but one more came. This made 13. It is why the god Balder, who was at the meal, was killed.（1）Some people will never sit at a table with twelve other people, or _________________.A . they will never come for dinner togetherB . they will ask one of them to leaveC . all of them will leaveD . they will wait for two other people to come（2）The story is about _____________________.A . the death of JesusB . the person who killed BalderC . why 13 is not a lucky numberD . the way people count with their fingers4. （10分） A lot of teenagers are good at art at school, but how would you feel if people called you “the new Picasso(毕加索)”or if presidents and other famous people collected your paintings?Alexandra Nechita was ten when her paintings became famous all over the world. She visited Britain, France, Italy, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and her family's native place (祖籍) Romania where 5,000 fans came to see her at the airport. Alexandra said, “When i t all started, I was moved. It was very exciting and I loved the traveling, but I got very tired. And I missed home.”Alexandra is a good student. Her studies always come first. She only starts painting after she's done her homework. She works on two or three paintings at a time. The paintings sell for thousands and Alexandra's parents have given up their jobs to work for their daughter. Life for the Nechita familyis very different from what it was like a few years ago.Alexandra's father Niki left Romania for political reasons in 1985. At first he tried his best to learn English and had different kinds of low-paid jobs. In 1987, he brought his wife and Alexandra, who was then 18 months old, to America. The family was very poor. Alexandra began to draw at the age of three.She was drawing for four or five hours a day. Soon people offered to buy her paintings and she had her first art show at the age of eight.

The models(模特) have shining hair like jewels(宝石). But now making hair shine is no longer the task of hair care products, because hair can be made into real jewels. Believe it or not, a company called LifeGem in the US makes it possible.The company is in the business of taking hair from dead people and making them into diamonds(钻石). Now the company plans to make three diamonds using Beethoven's hair to show their latest technology. The work will take about 7 months. In the end, Beethoven's long hair will become three shining diamonds.Since the great musician died in 1827, you may wonder where they got Beethoven's hair. A man called John Reznikoff gave the hair to the company. He holds the Guinness World Record for the latest and most valuable collection of celebrity(名人) hair. His collection also includes hair of Napoleon, Albert Einstein, Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy. In total, the collection is worth over five million dollars.Though it sounds unbelievable, diamonds made with hair are for the families to remember the dead.（1）What does the company of LifeGem do?（2）How did the company get Beethoven's hair?（3）John Reznikoff doesn't collect Albert Einstein's hair, does he?（4）How long will the work take?（5）What are the diamonds made with hair for?四、单词拼写 (共1题；共1分)6. （1分）Please put the ________ (蜡烛) in the birthday cake.五、短文填空 (共2题；共15分)7. （5分）用方框内所给词的适当形式填空。
