A
On the last day before Christmas, I hurried to a store to buy some gifts. While looking in the toys section,. I
noticed a small boy of about five years old, pressing a doll against his chest．Keeping on touching the hair of the doll, the boy murmured sadly, "I don't have enough money．What can I do?" I walked towards him and asked him curiously who he wanted to give the doll to．
" It is the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much for this Christmas．She was so sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her．" I told him that maybe Santa Claus would bring it to
her after all and not to worry．However, he replied sadly, " No, Santa Claus cannot take it to where she is now．I have to give the doll to my mother so that she can give it to her when she goes there．" His eyes looked so sad while saying this． " My sister has gone to be with God．Daddy says that Mommy will also join God very soon so I think that she can take the doll with her to give it to my sister．" My heart nearly stopped．
The boy looked up at me and said, " I told Daddy to tell Mommy not to go yet．I asked him to wait until I come back from the store．" Then, he showed me a very nice photo of him where he was laughing．He told me, " I also want Mommy to take this photo with her so that she will not forget me, I love my Mommy and I wish she didn't have to leave me but Daddy says that she has to go and join my little sister．" Then he looked at the doll again quietly with sad eyes．
I quickly reached my hand into my pocket, saying, "What if we checked again, just in case, to see if you have enough money?"
21．We can safely say ________ ．
A．Santa Claus would bring the doll to the girl B．the story happened in winter

You might not want a holiday in your hometown, but there is probably someone who does. And, in exchange, you could have a cheap vacation anywhere in the world.
Just picture the scene: you’re watching the sunset from the balcony of a Caribbean island house. It’s large. And it’s free as long as you don’t mind the owners living in your home at the same time.
All you need to be a home-swapper is the Internet and a rough idea of when and where you want to go on holiday. When you find someone whose dates match yours, and who wants to visit your area, you’re all set to swap.
The advantages are numerous: you can save a fortune in accommodation cost. You could get to use the owners’ car, boat, bikes, pool or gym. You might even be able to come to an arrangement about looking after each other’s pets!
You also get to live like a local, and you might be invited around to neighbors’ homes for tea, barbecues and tips on the area. People say that these cultural experiences are the memories that last. Plus, instead of one tiny hotel room, you have an entire house where you can make yourself at home. And it’s not cold and impersonal like a hotel room. Of course, there are disadvantages. A lot of effort and communication are needed before the arrangements are finalized. Nobody wants a stranger living in their house, sleeping in their bed and using their bathroom, so you have to get to know each other well beforehand.
Some people are concerned about theft or property damage, but in reality this is very rare. Most home-exchangers have the view that “If they can trust me with their house, I can trust them with mine.” The worse complaint people have is the difference in standards of cleanness.
If you’re interested in home-exchange for your next holiday, start by contacting a famous agency like and intervac,. These agencies will also have advice about preparing for a home-exchange.
25. What will you most probably remember if you have exchanged your home with another?
A. The sunset.
B. The car or boat of the home owner.
C. The pet of the home owner.
D. A gathering in his neighborhood.
26. If you want to exchange your home with another, you should do all of the following EXCEPT_________.
A. trying to know each other
B. surfing the Internet for information
C. inviting your neighbors home for tea
D. finding someone who wants to visit your area
27. Where can you most probably find the passage?
A. In a story book.
B. In a guide book.
C. In a textbook.
D. In a science book.
C
Every creature has its own emotion. Our humans need emotions to process information we receive and decide how to respond． Fear is an emotion like others such as happiness，anger，hurt and sadness. Being afraid of fast cars，for example，is something that might protect us from harm. Being afraid of the consequence of a choice may prevent us getting into trouble．
Fears in young children commonly center on certain animals like snakes or big dogs. Fears are caused often because of experiences or ideas expressed by others，and at times，the media. Many normal fears during the early years，like men with beards，or large dogs，disappear with age. Those relating to personal failure and ridicule （嘲笑） remain through adulthood and may need special help to overcome．
Children’s fears are often small，but that doesn’t mean they should be dismissed as trivial （微不足道的）．They need to be recognized and accepted as real for that child. Only when we help children understand their fears can they grow normally in their ability to settle them．Research shows that as a child grows up，the center of his fears changes a lot. Things like divorce，a tea cher who “shouted at me”，people with guns，bullies，big boys，or “making fun of me” top the list of childhood fears.”
We cannot always prevent these experiences from happening，but it is essential that children be allowed to freely express their emotions without judgment. Sympathy and a caring listener will help ease pain of these fears. Read books and stories to your child about children who have experienced similar fears. This helps children talk about their fears and find ways to cope. With all emotions，fear s become less of a problem for children as they gain self­confidence and they find that fear is normal and can be dealt with．
28．According to Paragraph 2，we know that fears in young children________．
A. only center on frightening animals
B. can make sure of their safety
C. are not born but learned
D. need special help to deal with 29．In dealing with children’s fears，the final goal of the parents is to________．
A. stop unpleasant experiences happening to children
B. let children know about the nature of fear
C. develop children’s ability to treat their fears on their own
D. create an environment where there is nothing to fear
30．From the passage we can learn that________．
A. children with similar fears can communicate easily
B. children should avoid the media to reduce their fear
C. fears can be judged according to the environment
D. some childhood fears may have a lasting influence
31．What’s the best title for this passage?
A. Children’s fears．
B. How to overcome children’s
fears．
C. The kind of children’s fears．
D. The bad effects of fears．
D

Most of us don’t like to think too much about rubbish. 36 . However, household waste is a major cont ributor to our planet’s waste problem. Like it or not, it needs to be managed if we are to have a brighter green future.
When it comes to being responsible for our own rubbish, the best way to approach it is by following the three golden rules of wast e management, or the ‘3 Rs’—Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
“The order is important. 37 ,” says Eugene Tay, Director of Green Future Solutions in Singapore. “Recycling still affects the environment and should be done last after reduce and reuse.”
But, when our efforts to reduce and reuse still result in an overflowing rubbish bin, the advantages of recycling cannot be ignored. “ 38 ,” says Amy Ho, Managing Director of World Wide Fund For Nature in Singapore. “The damage to our environment could then be slowed down as a result.”
In fact, by recycling just one plastic bottle, you are saving not just the material to make a new one, but you also stop it from getting thrown into a landfill (垃圾掩埋场) for up to 700 years—and that’s before it even starts t o rot. 39 .
Recycling is so important that we really have no excuse not to do the simplest of household tasks that will make a difference.
“ 40 ,” says Ho. “Starting with recycling grey water for gardening purposes, to recycling materials such as glass, paper and iron—it all reduces the use of raw materials.”
A. We put it in the bin and don’t think too far beyond that
B. The collective action of individuals can make a significant effect
C. It’s important for every household to make good use of grey water
D. Waste reduction and reuse is usually the best way to decrease waste
E. The three rules of waste management should be followed by every household
F. Recycling reduces the use of raw materials and so protects our natural resources
G. Recycling just 10% plastic bottles would keep 90 million kilograms of plastic out of landfills

One day, three people rushed in and grabbed food off the shelves as fast as they could, 44 not intending to pay for it. He hit the “panic button”, then went over the counter and 45 the front door.

Soon three 56 people walked out with all the 57 their arms could hold. They were 58 that if they needed to come back again they were to ask and not just grab.
And then the young man went back to read until the next customer came in. He would be the 59 person in the

第二节（25分）
We had some American exchange students in our school last week. As a host brother, I’d like to share some happy experiences with you.
Upon their arrival we gave the American students a warm welcome, among whom a boy named Tim was to stay with my family for the weekend. While they were introducing themselves, I already recognized him by comparing him with the photo he had sent to me. When school was over, we took the subway home, where my parents had already prepared a rich family dinner for Tim. We enjoyed ourselves a lot, eating and chatting about whatever subjects that interested us. The next day, I acted as a guide, showing Tim around the most famous scenic spots in Beijing, such as the Great Wall and the Bird’s Nest. Wherever he went, he had some photos taken to help him memorize this unforgettable trip to China. When finally the time came for us to say good-bye, I gave Tim a kite as a souvenir.
I think this activity has benefited me a lot. It was a perfect chance for me both to practice my oral English and to learn more about America.。
