(一)分数Have you ever planted some trees on Tree Planting Day? Every year, millions of people, both 1 , plant a lot of trees. But this may not be the best way to make our home a 2 place.

We drove there and asked why, the workers there told us that the trees 4 soon after they were planted. 5 they burned them and cleaned the place for planting 6 trees this year.

He was quite tall and thin. There is 6 wrong with his right leg.”“ 7 do you know that?”one of the policemen asked.“He limped(跛行),”Harry said.“What was he wearing?”the other policeman asked.“He was wearing black trousers and a shirt,” Harry said. “His mask was a lady,s stocking. His shoes were white sports shoes.”“You are a very clever boy,” the policeman said.”“ 8 ! Now we can send out a description of the robber.”The police did this and the next day they caught him.

Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel 3 and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads in their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are 4 at school, your friends will help you; when you study at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your 5 ; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do 6 , people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice those things, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not 7 as money; it is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t 8 with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor or you have bad luck. 9 the saying goes: Life is like a revolving(转动的)door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and 10 person.( )1.A.have B.has C.with D.without( )2.A.who B.whom C.which D.whose( )3.A.lone B.alone C.lonely D.happy( )4.A.happy B.in trouble C.free D.trouble( )5.A.health B.healthy C.study D.knowledge( )6.wrong anything B.anything wrong C.wrong something D.something wrong( )7.same B.the same C.different D.difference ( )8.buy B.bought C.be bought D.to be bought ( )9.As B.Which C.For D.To ( )10.A.luckB.luckyC.luckilyD.luckly(六) 分数Lifts are very useful. Why? Think about a tall building. You work 1 the thirtieth floor. Maybe you can walk up all the stairs one time. But can you climb thirty 2 to your office every day? Of course not.In an old lift, a worker is needed. He or she operates (控制) it 3 . In a modern lift, there is no worker. People can operate it 4 .Do you know 5 to use a lift? OK, let me tell you. For example, you want togo to the twelfth floor from the ground floor. First, you must press the button▲ ,then the door opens. After that, you can 6 the lift. Third, you press the , and the 7 closes. press the then thelift takes you up to the 8 floor. When the door opens again, you can get out of the lift.

A.run B.takeC.walkD.go ( )10.A.firstB.differentC.nextD.same(七) 分数Every summer, not only boys and men but also girls and women try to swim from England to France or from France to England. The distance (距离)at the 1 point is about 20 miles, but because the waves are very 2 , the distance that swimmers must 3 is usually more than twice as far.Captain Web was the first man to cross the English Channel between England and France.

How did these differences come about?Long ago, many British people were forced to leave their country for some other places. These places were later called America,Canada and Australia. The English language was brought to these places by them as well. In the beginning ,Americans spoke the same as they did in England, but the English people changed their language . Sometimes Americans spoke in a different way, while the people in England spoke the same they did before. So the language changed little by little from one part of the world fo another.The English language has taken in many new words from other languages. For example, Americans borrowed “cent” from old French and “cookbook”from German. They also borrowed “tofu” and “kowtow” from Chinese. In a word, the English language is changing all the time.12Hi, I’m Kangkang, My granny has lived in Beijing for more than forty years, She has seen the change in Beijing herself.In the 1960s, the whole city was under poor conditions, the roads were narrow and there weren’t many ring roads. Usually, a big family crowded into a small and dark house. Most families couldn’t get enough food and few children had a change to receive good education. Life was so hard that people had no time or money to enjoy leisure activities. People kept in touch with their friends and relatives far away mainly by letter and telegram.China has developed rapidly since 1978. More and more ring roads have appeared and people’s living conditions have improved a lot. Buildings in Beijing are becoming taller and brighter. And there are more kinds of food and clothes to choose. People can enjoy more sorts of leisure activities. Children can study not only in modern schools but also on the internet. What’s more, communications are becoming easier and quicker-people can use telephones, cellphones, fax machines, the internet and so on.Beijing has made rapid progress and it will host the 2008 Olympic Games. I think it is important to remember the past,live in the present and dream about the future.13Project Hope is a special service program to help poor student. It started on October 30, 1989. It aims to bring schools into poor areas of China, to help poor families afford their children’s school education.In the past sixteen years, Project Hope has raised about 3 billion yuan from people at home and abroad. It has paid for the education of 2.5 million poor students and sent 2.3 million students to high school. With the money, it has built thousands of school and libraries and trained 2300 teachers. But 40 million children from poor families still need help. So Project Hope still has a lot of work to do.(14)Have you ever learned other languages besides Chinese ?
