I am writing to draw your attention to some improper behaviour among us students: littering and scribbling. It makes our school dirty and unpleasant, and does harm to the image of our school. I always feel ashamed whenever I see this. It is clearly not appropriate for a student to litter and scribble about. I wonder if the school could place more dustbins around and set up specific rules against such behaviour. At the same time, students should be encouraged to develop good habits and better behave themselves. I believe that, with the joint efforts of both teachers and students, our school will become a more enjoyable place in the near future.Thank you for your consideration.Yours faithfully,Tom。

The Miracle of a Brother’s SongD.An Unforgettable Day37.From Karen’s action in the first paragraph we know that .A.mothers often pay much attention to their newly-born babiesB.it often takes some time for a child to accept his/her newly-born brother or sister.C.it is good for children to learn to sing songs to babiesD.mothers often tell their children how to look after their younger brothers or sisters38.The underlined word“strained〞means“〞.A.unnaturalB.excitingC.deep D .blocked39.Which words can describe Michael?A.Naughty and annoying.B.Strong and brave.C.Active and careless.D.Concerned and determined.B篇 For thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub. Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historic sites. The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called “Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem〞, which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pub’s landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.That’s how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that thecredit crunch(信贷紧缩) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business. People do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.This decline is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 1l pm. Previously, with 1l pm as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking〞, and it causes long-term health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Men's Clubs〞, meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.40. The passage mainly tells us something aboutA. the past and present of British pubsB. the decline of British pubsC. the long history of British pubsD. the importance of British pubs41. Which may not be the cause of the decline of British pubs?A. The credit crunch.B. The ban of smoking.C. The present closing timeD. Having no spare money.42. We can infer from the passage thatA. British people used to like drinking slowlyB. closing the pubs early will reduce social problemsC. binge drinking means drinking less beerD. British government aims to discourage people from binge drinking43. We can see from the last paragraph that the author ________A. is against the admission of too many women to the pubsB. holds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubsC. thinks that women in the pubs will cause less social problemsD. thinks that British pubs should offer everything you needC篇When you go to St. Petersburg, the number of attractions can seem large. If you are short of time, or just want to make sure to hit the highlights, these are the top must-see sights in St．Petersburg．●The Hermitage MuseumThe Hermitage Museum is one of the most important sights to see for any visitor to St．Petersburg．There are lots of different paintings by the old masters in the Hermitage．Prepare to come face-to-face with classic Western artists．●Kizhi IslandKizhi Island is an open-air museum of wooden architecture from the Karelia Region of Russia．These impressive structures are made entirely without nails - the wood fits together with joints and grooves〔沟槽〕．●PeterhofPeterhof is as beautiful as it is fun．You’ll be charged for admission, but go to Petethof when the fountains are working—during the day in the summer．They are shut off in winter evenings．●The Church of Our Savior on the Spilt BloodLove it or hate it, the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt Blood in St．Petersburg is an enthralling must-see sight．The beautiful look may make y our eyes brighten, and the painting inside the church will make you say “Wow!〞●The Bronze Horseman StatueThe so-called Bronze Horseman is a part of Russian culture and a symbol of St．Petersburg．Made famous by Alexander Pushkin, this statue of Peter the Great sitting on his horse can truly show Peter the Great’s influence on the Russian idea of greatness．44．If you are interested in paintings, you’d better go to ． A．Peterhof and Kizhi IslandB．the Hernatage Museum and PeterhofC．Kizhi Island and the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt BloodD．the hermitage Museum and the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt Blood 45．We can learn from the passage that ．A．visitors can visit Peterhof for freeB．the buildings of Kizhi Island are made of woodC．the fountains in Peterhof can be seen all year roundD．the largest collection of Russian arts is in the Hermitage Museum 46．The main purpose of the passage is to ．A．show the wonderful history of RussiaB．persuade artists to study St．PetersburgC．recommend the famous buildings in RussiaD．introduce the must-see sights in St．Petersburg47．The underlined phrase 〔in Para 1〕“hit the highlights〞 means ．A．to save more time B．to learn more knowledgeC．to go to the high buildings D．to visit the most interesting sightsD篇“The first and best of victories is for a man to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful，〞 says Plato. Selfcontrol is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral (道德上的) freedom.A single angry word has lost many a friend. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad〞“Keep cool〞， says George Herbert, “for fierceness (狂怒) makes error a fault.〞To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger，〞says Pythagoras, “brings with folly(愚蠢) and ends with regret.〞 You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.Selfcontrol is man's last greatest victory.If a man lacks selfcontrol he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no selfconfidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks selfcontrol, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also.48. What does the reader learn from the first paragraph?A. The greatest victory for a man is to conquer everything except himself.B. One's moral freedom is based on the control of himself.C. To control oneself is the most difficult in one's life.D. If a person is too stubborn, he will feel most shameful.49. What is the correct interpretation of “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad〞？A. If the gods want to kill you, they make you crazy first.B. If you cannot control yourself, you will become crazy.C. If you always lose your temper, you will soon be finished.D. If you are mad, you will be punished by the gods.50. If a man lacks selfcontrol, he lacks all of the following EXCEPT ________.A. the very backbone and nerve of characterB. the patience and power to control himselfC. selfconfidenceD. strong feelings四、完成句子51. Read the_____________ (说明书) carefully before taking the medicine.52 A beautiful lady opened the door and came in, _____(跟随着) by another who looked younger.53. This problem needs _____________ ( 解决) at once.54. There _____________(存在) the generation gap between our parents and us today.55. The police had ____________〔秘密〕filmed the conversations.56. A great celebration was held on his _____________ (90岁) birthday.57.This letter requires your ____________________(立即的) reply.58. _____________ (尽管) his wealth, he was not happy.59.Many____________(亚洲) countries are making great efforts to develop their own economies.60.

The Miracle of a Brother’s SongD.An Unforgettable Day37.From Karen’s action in the first paragraph we know that .A.mothers often pay much attention to their newly-born babiesB.it often takes some time for a child to accept his/her newly-born brother or sister.C.it is good for children to learn to sing songs to babiesD.mothers often tell their children how to look after their younger brothers or sisters38.The underlined word“strained”means“”.A.unnaturalB.excitingC.deepD.blocked39.Which words can describe Michael?A.Naughty and annoying.B.Strong and brave.C.Active and careless.D.Concerned and determined.B篇For thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub. Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historic sites. The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called “Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem”, which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pub’s landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.That’s how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business. People do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.This decline is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 1l pm. Previously, with 1l pm as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”, and it causes long-term health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Men's Clubs”,meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for the better after all.40. The passage mainly tells us something aboutA. the past and present of British pubsB. the decline of British pubsC. the long history of British pubsD. the importance of British pubs41. Which may not be the cause of the decline of British pubs?A. The credit crunch.B. The ban of smoking.C. The present closing timeD. Having no spare money.42. We can infer from the passage thatA. British people used to like drinking slowlyB. closing the pubs early will reduce social problemsC. binge drinking means drinking less beerD. British government aims to discourage people from binge drinking43. We can see from the last paragraph that the author ________A. is against the admission of too many women to the pubsB. holds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubsC. thinks that women in the pubs will cause less social problemsD. thinks that British pubs should offer everything you needC篇When you go to St. Petersburg, the number of attractions can seem large. If you are short of time, or just want to make sure to hit the highlights, these are the top must-see sights in St．Petersburg．●The Hermitage MuseumThe Hermitage Museum is one of the most important sights to see for any visitor to St．Petersburg．There are lots of different paintings by the old masters in the Hermitage．Prepare to come face-to-face with classic Western artists．●Kizhi IslandKizhi Island is an open-air museum of wooden architecture from the Karelia Region of Russia．These impressive structures are made entirely without nails - the wood fits together with joints and grooves（沟槽）．●PeterhofPeterhof is as beautiful as it is fun．You’ll be charged for admission, but go to Petethof when the fountains are working—during the day in the summer．They are shut off in winter evenings．●The Church of Our Savior on the Spilt BloodLove it or hate it, the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt Blood in St．Petersburg is an enthralling must-see sight．The beautiful look may make y our eyes brighten, and the painting inside the church will make you say “Wow!”●The Bronze Horseman StatueThe so-called Bronze Horseman is a part of Russian culture and a symbol of St．Petersburg．Made famous by Alexander Pushkin, this statue of Peter the Great sitting on his horse can truly show Peter the Great’s influence on the Russian idea of greatness．44．If you are interested in paintings, you’d better go to ．A．Peterhof and Kizhi IslandB．the Hernatage Museum and PeterhofC．Kizhi Island and the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt BloodD．the hermitage Museum and the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt Blood45．We can learn from the passage that ．A．visitors can visit Peterhof for freeB．the buildings of Kizhi Island are made of woodC．the fountains in Peterhof can be seen all year roundD．the largest collection of Russian arts is in the Hermitage Museum46．The main purpose of the passage is to ．A．show the wonderful history of RussiaB．persuade artists to study St．PetersburgC．recommend the famous buildings in RussiaD．introduce the must-see sights in St．Petersburg47．The underlined phrase （in Para 1）“hit the highlights” means ．A．to save more time B．to learn more knowledgeC．to go to the high buildings D．to visit the most interesting sightsD篇“The first and best of victories is for a man to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful，” says Plato. Selfcontrol is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral (道德上的) freedom.A single angry word has lost many a friend. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad”“Keep cool”， says George Herbert, “for fierceness (狂怒) makes error a fault.”To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger，”says Pythagoras, “brings with folly(愚蠢) and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.Selfcontrol is man's last greatest victory.If a man lacks selfcontrol he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no selfconfidence, for he will always becontrolled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks selfcontrol, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also.48. What does the reader learn from the first paragraph?A. The greatest victory for a man is to conquer everything except himself.B. One's moral freedom is based on the control of himself.C. To control oneself is the most difficult in one's life.D. If a person is too stubborn, he will feel most shameful.49. What is the correct interpretation of “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad”？A. If the gods want to kill you, they make you crazy first.B. If you cannot control yourself, you will become crazy.C. If you always lose your temper, you will soon be finished.D. If you are mad, you will be punished by the gods.50. If a man lacks selfcontrol, he lacks all of the following EXCEPT ________.A. the very backbone and nerve of characterB. the patience and power to control himselfC. selfconfidenceD. strong feelings四、完成句子51. Read the_____________ (说明书) carefully before taking the medicine.52 A beautiful lady opened the door and came in, _____(跟随着) by another who looked younger.53. This problem needs _____________ ( 解决) at once.54. There _____________(存在) the generation gap between our parents and us today.55. The police had ____________（秘密）filmed the conversations.56. A great celebration was held on his _____________ (90岁) birthday.57.This letter requires your ____________________(立即的) reply.58. _____________ (尽管) his wealth, he was not happy.59.Many____________(亚洲) countries are making great efforts to develop their own economies.60.

The Miracle of a Brother’s SongD.An Unforgettable Day37.From Karen’s action in the first paragraph we know that .A.mothers often pay much attention to their newly-born babiesB.it often takes some time for a child to accept his/her newly-born brother or sister.C.it is good for children to learn to sing songs to babiesD.mothers often tell their children how to look after their younger brothers or sisters38.The underlined word“strained”means“”.A.unnaturalB.excitingC.deepD.blocked39.Which words can describe Michael?A.Naughty and annoying.B.Strong and brave.C.Active and careless.D.Concerned and determined.B篇 For thousands of years, the most important two buildings in any British village have been the church and the pub. Traditionally, the church and the pub are at the heart of any village or town, where the people gather together to socialize and exchange news.As a result, British pubs are often old and well preserved. Many of them have become historic sites. The most famous example is the pub in the city of Nottingham called “Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem”, which dates back to the year 1189 AD and is probably the oldest pub in England.However, British pubs are not just for kings and queens; they welcome people from all classes and parts of society. On a cold night, the pub’s landlord or landlady can always find a warm place for you by the fire. There is always honest and hearty food and plenty of drink available at an affordable price.That’s how things used to be. Things are beginning to change. It is said that the credit crunch(信贷紧缩) is causing 39 British pubs a week to go out of business. People do not have enough spare money to spend on beer. Recently, the UK government banned smoking in all pubs, and that may also have affected the number of customers going to pubs.This decline is happening despite the fact that in 2005 the UK government started to allow pubs to stay open after 1l pm. Previously, with 1l pm as closing time, customers would have to drink quite quickly, meaning they sometimes got more drunk than they would if allowed to drink slowly. The British habit of drinking a lot very quickly is known as “binge drinking”, and it causes long-term health problems for people and problems with violent crime for communities.In order to save their businesses, pubs are trying to change with the market. British pubs now offer something for everyone. A lot of pubs used to be “Working Men's Clubs”, meaning that women could not usually enter. Today, however, women can freely enter 99% of pubs without experiencing any problems. Perhaps things are changing for thebetter after all.40. The passage mainly tells us something aboutA. the past and present of British pubsB. the decline of British pubsC. the long history of British pubsD. the importance of British pubs41. Which may not be the cause of the decline of British pubs?A. The credit crunch.B. The ban of smoking.C. The present closing timeD. Having no spare money.42. We can infer from the passage thatA. British people used to like drinking slowlyB. closing the pubs early will reduce social problemsC. binge drinking means drinking less beerD. British government aims to discourage people from binge drinking43. We can see from the last paragraph that the author ________A. is against the admission of too many women to the pubsB. holds an optimistic attitude towards the British pubsC. thinks that women in the pubs will cause less social problemsD. thinks that British pubs should offer everything you needC篇When you go to St. Petersburg, the number of attractions can seem large. If you are short of time, or just want to make sure to hit the highlights, these are the top must-see sights in St．Petersburg．●The Hermitage MuseumThe Hermitage Museum is one of the most important sights to see for any visitor to St．Petersburg．There are lots of different paintings by the old masters in the Hermitage．Prepare to come face-to-face with classic Western artists．●Kizhi IslandKizhi Island is an open-air museum of wooden architecture from the Karelia Region of Russia．These impressive structures are made entirely without nails - the wood fits together with joints and grooves（沟槽）．●PeterhofPeterhof is as beautiful as it is fun．You’ll be charged for admission, but go to Petethof when the fountains are working—during the day in the summer．They are shut off in winter evenings．●The Church of Our Savior on the Spilt BloodLove it or hate it, the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt Blood in St．Petersburg is an enthralling must-see sight．The beautiful look may make y our eyes brighten, and the painting inside the church will make you say “Wow!”●The Bronze Horseman StatueThe so-called Bronze Horseman is a part of Russian culture and a symbol of St．Petersburg．Made famous by Alexander Pushkin, this statue of Peter the Great sitting on his horse can truly show Peter the Great’s influence on the Russian idea of greatness．44．If you are interested in paintings, you’d better go to ． A．Peterhof and Kizhi IslandB．the Hernatage Museum and PeterhofC．Kizhi Island and the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt BloodD．the hermitage Museum and the Church of Our Savior on the Spilt Blood 45．We can learn from the passage that ．A．visitors can visit Peterhof for freeB．the buildings of Kizhi Island are made of woodC．the fountains in Peterhof can be seen all year roundD．the largest collection of Russian arts is in the Hermitage Museum 46．The main purpose of the passage is to ．A．show the wonderful history of RussiaB．persuade artists to study St．PetersburgC．recommend the famous buildings in RussiaD．introduce the must-see sights in St．Petersburg47．The underlined phrase （in Para 1）“hit the highlights” means ．A．to save more time B ．to learn more knowledgeC．to go to the high buildings D．to visit the most interesting sightsD篇“The first and best of victories is for a man to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful，” says Plato. Selfcontrol is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses (冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral (道德上的) freedom.A single angry word has lost many a friend. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad”“Keep cool”， says George Herbert, “for fierceness (狂怒) makes error a fault.”To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger，”says Pythagoras, “brings with folly(愚蠢) and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him.Selfcontrol is man's last greatest victory.If a man lacks selfcontrol he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have no selfconfidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks selfcontrol, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also.48. What does the reader learn from the first paragraph?A. The greatest victory for a man is to conquer everything except himself.B. One's moral freedom is based on the control of himself.C. To control oneself is the most difficult in one's life.D. If a person is too stubborn, he will feel most shameful.49. What is the correct interpretation of “Whom the gods would destroy they first make mad”？A. If the gods want to kill you, they make you crazy first.B. If you cannot control yourself, you will become crazy.C. If you always lose your temper, you will soon be finished.D. If you are mad, you will be punished by the gods.50. If a man lacks selfcontrol, he lacks all of the following EXCEPT ________.A. the very backbone and nerve of characterB. the patience and power to control himselfC. selfconfidenceD. strong feelings四、完成句子51.
