(共15小题；每小题2分，共30分）
A
People in the United States honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June.
Mother’s Day was proclaimed a day for national observance by President Woodrow Wilson in 1915. Ann Jarvis from Grafton, West Virginia, had started the idea to have a day to honor mothers. She was the one who chose the second Sunday in May and also began the custom of wearing a carnation.
In 1909, Mrs. Dodd from Spokane, Washington, thought of the idea of a day to honor fathers. She wanted to honor her own father, William Smart. After her mother died, he had the responsibility of raising a family of five sons and a daughter. In 1910，the first Father’s Day was observed in Spokane. Senator Margaret Chase Smith helped to established Father’s Day as a national commemorative day in 1972.
These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care.
These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead．Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day. These are days of f un and good feelings and memories.
21. According to the passage, which of the following about the second Sunday in May is not true?
A. It is a day to show love to mothers
B. It is a day to wear carnations.
C. It is a day for people to visit the cemetery.
D. It is a day for many people to attend religious services.
22. Who plays the most important role in Father’s Day becoming a national commemorative day?
A. Mrs. Do
B. Margaret Chase Smith
C. Ann Jarvis
D. Woodrow Wilson
23. From the passage, we know in the U.S .
A. one should wear a red carnation if one’s mother pass away
B. on Mother’s Day, families often go out to have barbecues
C. on Father’s Day, people often stay at home to celebrate the special day.
D. The purpose to have these two special days is to show love to parents
24. The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to .
A. introduce Mother’s Day and Father’s Day
B. show how important fathers and mothers are
C. tell the difference between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day
D. call on people to love and respect their parents.

Since the beginning of the year, smog has covered parts of North China. In January, Beijing saw only five days without smog. The rising PM 2.5 readings terrified many people, and some health experts said that whenever the smog gets serious, hospitals receive more patients suffering acute respiratory and heart diseases.
Later, news of polluted underground water in some provinces scared people who wondered whether the water they drink is safe. So the need to emphasize environmental protection while developing the economy is heard everywhere.
Smog especially is a common concern. Like a popular online post said, air may be the only thing that is equal for everyone, despite your income or vocation. People with higher incomes are able to drink only bottled spring water and eat only organic food by paying higher prices, but they breathe the same air as everyone else.
At a meeting on Monday, many Representatives have expressed their concerns about the air quality, too. One t alked about his experience in Beijing. “After taking a taxi from the capital airport to my hotel, which took about an hour, I washed my nose and found the inside of my nose was black. We should ask ourselves this question: Why do we want to develop? It's for living a better life. Dirty air is definitely not a better life," he said.
China needs to develop its economy and invest in high-tech. Every Chinese wants a strong country. But without blue sky, clean water and safe food, the achievements in the economy will become meaningless. Space technologies are not to be developed for building a base on Mars so that one day all human beings can migrate to the red planet because they have destroyed Earth. What the public wants is a strong and beautiful China. Former president Hu Jintao spoke at the 18th Party Congress last November saying that great efforts must be made to promote ecological progress and build a beautiful China. The words have shown the central government's resolution to address the environment issue.

B. more people suffering diseases
C. the increase of people’s income
D. patients increased in hospital
2. The underlined wore “they” in paragraph 4 refers to ?

D. industrial development
3. From the last two paragraphs we can infer that .
A. high-tech can completely solve the problem of pollution
B. space technologies should be developed in a large scale
C. we can move to the Mars after the earth has been destroyed
D. we must protect the environment while developing economy
C
The Internet is not perfect. There are many problems with it.

Some businessmen cheat people on the Internet. Internet thieves can steal credit card numbers. Some advertisers send spam to e-mail boxes. E-mail boxes are often filled with these unwanted advertisements. Illegal businesses can operate on the Internet. These businesses sell X-rated materials, cigarettes and
alcohol to teenagers.
The Internet has websites with information about making bombs, breaking the law and terrorism. Criminals can fool people, especially children, in chat rooms. They can spread poisonous information and attack new members.
The Internet is the greatest advance in communication since human emerged. But it can also like a dark alley in a dangerous part of town. Parents need to set parental controls on their children when they use the Internet. This will keep some of the bad material away from their children.
The Internet can be dangerous to computers, too. Some people who have evil intentions enjoy causing problems for other people they don't even know. They create computer viruses. A computer can get virus by downloading a program that has a virus in it. Some virus come by e-mail. A virus can destroy the data a person has saved in computer files. A virus can cause a computer to crash. A virus can also reproduce itself! It can send copies of itself to everyone on a person's e-mail address list. Then these people's will have the same problems and can't work normally!
28. Why can illegal businesses operate on the Internet?

According to a new rule issued this week by the California Court, part3nts can take their children’s public schools to court to force them to provide the minimum amount of physical education required under the state law.
The rule could be a piece of bad news for a lot of schools, since the survey shows that more than half of the state schools fail to provide the required minutes of physical activity.
The physical education issue came to light last year when a parent of a child sued (起诉) a school district, saying that this child’s school wasn’t meeting the minimum requirement for physical education. The judge rejected it, saying that the physical education rule was only advised but was not required. Besides, the original ruling suggested that a parent had no right to enforce the law.
But with a 3-0 vote this week, the California Court o verturned the original ruling, “Although individual school districts may have their own decision about how to manage their physical education
programs, those programs must satisfy the 200-minutes-per-l0-school-day minimum,” the judges wrote.
Michael Pott, the lawyer that represented one of the school districts in the case, says that the law gives variety in physical education, which, he explains, can include health, nutrition, team-work, and active play. It is certainly good for students. We should understand that physical activity is emphasized in the state law because.it is the key to a child’s well-being.” H e said.
32. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Not providing the required minutes of physical activity is not legal
B. A lot of schools think highly of the new rule.
C. Many parents have accused some school districts
D. More than half of the state can provide the required minutes of physical activity.
33. The underlined word “variety” in the last paragraph most probably means .
A. many requirements
B. different kinds
C. a certain content
D. strict order
34. Why is physical activity emphasized in the new rule?
A. It is required by the parents.
B. It is required by the students
C. It the key to a child’s health.
D. It is issued by the California Court.
35. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Physical education.
B. Students and physical education.
C. Art original rule of physical education.
D. A new rule of physical education.

Using good study habits to reach your goals
Are you having trouble with your less ons? You’re not the only one. A lot of students have a hard time in high school because they don’t have good study habits.36.
Stay away from distractions
If you are interested in many things, it is certainly a quality to be admired. It can get in the way of concentrating on the things that have to get done. So, if you are having trouble staying focused, try to stay away from distractions like MP4 players, TV sets and the Internet. Turn off your computer and your cellphone.37 .
Buy a good planner
Many bright students are disorganized. Buying a good planner can help you organize your schoolwork and become more efficient. Many good planners have one week per age, with a different box for each subject each day.38 . This will decrease the chance of your forgetting something. At the end of the school day, check your planner to make sure you have all of the books you need before long time.
39 .
Many teachers will assign all the homework for the week at once. If you start working on your homework in advance, not only will you be more relaxed but you will also learn the material better by absorbing it little by little.
40 .
No two students learn the same way, so what may work for one student may not apply to another. Experiment with different note taking styles until you find one that helps you think logically, clearly, and
effectively.
