Lastly,kerosene is expensive,so families have less money for food.It was difficult to come up with a different kind of lamp that was cheap and good for the environment.Yet Evans did not give up.One day,he had an idea.He could use a small solar（太阳能的）light.Sunlight is free and solar power is good for the environment.Evans built his first solar lamp,and it worked.He began to build more lamps and sent them to local families.An organization heard about this and provided money for him to build more solar lamps.Each lamp only cost$20.However,this was a lot of money to many villagers,who only earned around$34a week,so Evans made sure he kept the cost down.First,Evans used recycled materials.Next,volunteers built the lamps.Finally,people from many countries gave away money to his team,so the lamps were usually free.Thousands of people had safe light.Julia,a mother of three,said,"Thanks to Evans,my children have light to read,and I have my own light to cook."The solar lamps made a big difference.（）38．What does the underlined word"this"in Paragraph1refer to?A．Leaving school.B．Doing homework.C．Having eye problems.D．Having a bright idea.（）39．How many problems about kerosene lamps are mentioned according to Paragraph2?A．6.B．5.C．4.D．3.（）40．Put the following information into correct order according to the passage.a.Evans went to a university.b.Thousands of people had safe light.c.His first solar lamp was invented.d.Kerosene lamps hurt Evans'eyes.e.Recycled materials were used in the lamps.f.People from many countries gave away money.A．d-a-c-e-f-b B．d-f-b-a-e-c C．a-d-f-e-c-b D．a-e-c-d-f-b（）41．Why does the writer give Julia's example in Paragraph5?A．To share Julia's experience.B．To show Evans'influence.C．To describe Evans'feelings.D．To introduce Evans'invention.（）42．What is Evans like according to the passage?A．Polite,talented and humorous.B．Quiet,smart and honest.C．Humorous,clever and friendly.D．Hard-working,loving and creative.阅读理解When we think of art,we probably think of painting a picture on a strong cloth or special paper,even on walls of a city.However,in many cultures people paint their faces instead.①____In fact,face painting may be the very first form of art.Painting faces are in different colors and patterns.This has been part of people's traditions for thousands of years.The way that people painted their faces can tell stories and lessons from the past.②____People still paint their faces for lots of reasons.Patterns on faces connect people to a tribal(部落)family and can show who is the most important person in the family.For fighters,it is a way to make their enemies afraid. Face painting is also used in many ceremonies and special celebrations.How is face paint important in theater?Face paint was important in Japanese and Chinese ancient ceremonies.It was also used in traditional theatre to change the actors'roles.Actors in those countries still wear white,black and red face paint today to show feelings and make the bad people look dramatic(戏剧性的)and awful.③____Tribal people make face paint from the natural colors in plants and earth.Plant parts are used to make different colorings.The ingredients are dried over a fire and then made into a powder(粉末).This is then mixed with animal fat.（）43．Match the title with each part.a.Is face paint art?b.Is wall painting a symbol?c.Why paint your face?d.How wear face paint?e.Where does the paint come from?A．①-a,②-b,③-c B．①-b,②-e,③-dC．①-a,②-c,③-e D．①-b,②-d,③-c（）44．How long has face painting been part of people's traditions?A．For a few years.B．For several centuries.C．For about100years.D．For thousands of years.（）45．Why did fighters paint their faces when they fought?A．To look friendly.B．To look scary.C．To look funny.D．To look painful.（）46．What can we know about face paint?A．Painting on the walls is the first form of art.B．Animal fat is used to make different colorings.C．Patterns on faces can show people's ages in a family.D．Face paint in colors can show actors'feelings in China.（）47．Which of the following can be the best title?A．Face Art.B．Traditional Painters.C．Wall Paintings.D．Tribal Celebrations.阅读理解Why do We Yawn?Do you yawn?There are about20reasons that scientists think are possible for yawning after research.They do not know exactly why yawning happens,but they do know many facts about yawning.We know that everyone yawns in the same way.First you open your mouth slowly.Your mouth stays open for about five seconds.You take in a lot of air and then push it out.Then you quickly close your mouth.We also know that yawning is contagious.When you see someone yawn,you yawn,too.Many people say they yawn because they are bored or tired.That might be true.People do often yawn before they sleep and after they wake up.However,we know that people also yawn when they are excited or nervous. Olympic runners,for example,often yawn before a race.Why is that?In2007,scientists found that a yawn can help a warm brain cool down.Some scientists believe that yawning makes you notice things more quickly.When you yawn,you breathe deeply.You also stretch(强化)the muscles(肌肉)in your face,mouth,and neck.Your eardrums stretch,too. Maybe this helps you to be quicker to notice things.In some countries,people think yawning is not nice.People put their hands over their mouths to cover a yawn. In other countries,people think yawning is healthy.They think that opening the mouth very big can let good things in.When they breathe out,they think that bad things go out of the body with the air.Scientists do not spend much time studying yawning.That is probably because yawning does not hurt.It is just something we do.（）48．What does the underlined word"contagious"in Paragraph2mean?A．Able to spread quickly.B．Able to breathe easily.C．Able to change easily.D．Able to sleep quickly.（）49．Why do Olympic runners often yawn before a race?A．They are too tired or too bored.B．A yawn can let good things in.C．A yawn can help a warm brain cool down.D．A yawn can stretch the muscles in their faces.（）50．What is the main idea of Paragraph5?A．Reasons for yawning.B．Advantages of yawning. C．Disadvantages of yawning.D．Different ideas about yawning.（）51．What can we probably infer from the passage?A．People use different ways to yawn.B．Scientists will do further research on yawning. C．It's hard to notice things quickly while yawning.D．Some scientists think yawning is good for people. 52．What would be the best structure of the passage?A．B．C．D．五、阅读还原7选5阅读还原7选5Bamboo is a wonderful plant for many people around the world.53．People make tables,clothes, medicine,and musical instruments with it.Pandas may eat bamboo every day,but people can also eat it.54．Some bamboo grows so quickly that people say they can watch it grow.The speed of growth depends on the type of bamboo,the earth and the season.Normal bamboo grows3—10cm a day.It usually grows in tropical(热带的)areas.55．Bamboo plants are found in Asia,Australia,parts of Africa,and South America.One of the world's oldest building materials is bamboo.Like today,people use it because it's very strong.They used it to build houses,boats,and bridges.The Chinese made a bamboo bridge over the Min River in Sichuan, China almost1000years ago.56．Also,bamboo is still used to make houses today,especially in China and Philippines.As a part of history,bamboo is very important.The great scientist Thomas Edison did not invent the light bulb (灯泡),but he made it perfect.He wanted the material inside to burn for a long period of time.He tried over1000 different types of materials.57．One day,he tried to use a piece of bamboo and the light bulb lit up for over a thousand hours.This invention helped other scientists to make the modern light bulb we use today.A.You can still visit it today.B.There are over1000uses for it.C.However,none worked very well.D.Bamboo is light because it is empty inside.E.It can also be found in other parts of the world.F.Chinese people like drawing pictures of bamboo.G.The fastest growing plant in the world is bamboo.六、补全对话7选5请阅读下面对话，根据对话内容从下面的七个选项中选择五个填入空白处，使对话通顺、合理，意思完整，并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。
