I'm glad I do. New Jersey is my favorite place for three reasons.The first reason is my family. Over half of my family live in New Jersey. When I visit there, my cousins and I laugh and play all day and night. My uncles and aunts take us to the boardwalk(木板人行道) where we ride roller coasters. We ate juicy caramel—covered with apples and footlong hot dogs. My family is fun to be with.The second reason is the weather. Instead of being hot and sweaty, it's always cool and wet. When I think of my visits, I can justfeel the fall wind in my hair, see the white winter snow, hear the soft spring rain splashing(溅落) on the sidewalks and feel the warm summer sun on my face. The weather is great!The third reason is catching crabs. If it's crab season, my brother and I catch crabs. We keep the blue crabs and the snow crabs, and we let the others go. Sometimes we catch crabs with hooks(钓钩), and sometimes we lower crab cages into the bay. Then we pull them out later. One time my brother caught a crab. It was so big that it got stuck in the crab cage. The crab finally ran away, but it hurt one of its legs and broke the cage.For all these reasons, New Jersey is my favorite place to go to. If you don't have a favorite place, I think you should search for one. It's good to visit a favorite place—a place where you can make special memories. By the way, if you catch crabs in your special place, be sure to get a big crab cage.()26.The writer's uncles and aunts take him to the boardwalk to ride roller coasters with his ________．A．brothers B．sistersC．cousins D．parents()27.What's the weather like in New Jersey?A．It's hot and sweaty all year round.B．It's always cool and wet.C．It's sunny and windy all the time.D．It's always cold and snowy.()28.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．The writer ate juicy caramel with his uncles, aunts and cousins.B．In spring the writer can hear the soft spring rain splashing on the sidewalks.C．The writer and his brother only keep the blue crabs and the snow crabs.D．The writer and his brother catch crabs only with hooks.()29.What does a favorite place mean?A．A place where you can laugh and play.B．A place where you can make special memories.C．A place where you can eat favorite food.D．A place where you can stay with family.()30.What does this passage mainly tell us?A．New Jersey is the writer's favorite place to go to.B．Over half of the writer's family live in New Jersey.C．The weather in New Jersey is great!D．The writer likes catching crabs in New Jersey.Ⅰ.短文填词(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)阅读短文，在没有汉语提示的空格处，根据首字母、音标或语境的提示填入1个适当的单词；在有汉语提示的空格处，填入适当的短语，使短文语意连贯，意思完整。

Candy told me that she used to really shy and took up singing to deal with her shy。
As she g ot better,she dared to sing in front of her class,and then for the whole school。
Now she's not shy anymore and loves singing in front of crowds。

Fun Times Park—Always a Fun Time!
[Alice and He Wei are in Space World]
Alice：I wonder where we should go next.
He Wei：How about that new ride there?
Alice：well...it looks scary.
He Wei：Come on! I promise it'll be exciting！If you're scary，just shout or hold my hand.
[After the ride...]
Alice：You were right，that was fun！I was scared at first，but shouting help.
He Wei：See，that wasn't so bad，right？You never kno w you try something.
Alice：Yes，I'm so gl ad I tried it.
He Wei：Do you want to go to Water World now?
Alice：Sure，but I'm really hungry.Do you know where we can get some good food quick?
He Wei：Of course！I s uggest Water City Restaurant in Water World.It serves delicious food. Alice：Great！Let's to go!
[On their way to Water City Restaurant，Alice and He Wei pass by Uncle Bob's.]
Alice：Oh，look！This restaurant looks interesting.The sign say a rock band plays there every evening.
He Wei：Why don't we come ba ck here for dinner late.Let's ask what time the ban d starts playing.
[Alice and He Wei walk up to a staff person at the door.]
He Wei：Excuse m e，could you tell us when the band starts playing this evening?
Staff：Eight o'clock.The restaurant is always busy at that time，so come a little early to get a table.
He Wei：OK，thanks!
B
Could You Please...?
When you visit a foreign country，it is important to know how ask for help politely.For example，you may a sk “Where are the restrooms？”and“Could you please tell me where the restrooms are？”are similar request for directions.Both are correct，but the first one sounds less polite.That is because it is a very direct question.It is not enough to just ask a question correctly.We also need to learn how to be polite when we ask for help.
Good speakers change the way they speaks in different situations.The expressions they use might depend whom they are speaking to or how well they know each other.It is all right ask direct questions to your classmates because you know them well.However，If you say to your teacher，“When is the school trip？”，this might sound polite.But if you say，“Excuse me，Mr.West.Do you know when the school trip is？”，this will sound much more politely.
