He has seen many changes in his home town.He knows that things are different now. But he never forgets the old days. He likes to talk about them. He often talks about hisfavourite（最喜欢的）birds, the robins （一种小小鸟——鸫）. "When I was a boy, these houses were not here. There were wide fields and tall trees. Every spring robins would come. Thousands of them would fly up to the north from the south. They spent the winter in the south. Some would build their nests（巢）in the trees near our houses. Then people started to cut down trees, and they built more houses. The robins stopped coming. They couldn't build their nests near our houses because there were no trees.” "Now there are too many houses and too many roads. There are no places for the robins. They do come any more（不再）." 41.The birds, the robins, spent the winter in________.A. the southB. the westC. the northD. the east 42. ________ built the nests in the trees.A. Mr. EllisB. Some peopleC. The robinsD. Some dogs 43. Then people________ trees because they wanted to build more houses.A. cut downB. plantedC. boughtD. watered 44. From the passage（短文）we can know that________. A. Mr. Ellis likes his new life now B. there were many houses there in the old days C. the robins can make their nests without trees D. Mr. Ellis is not happy with the changes there 45. Mr. Ellis often talks about________.A. his old houseB. the old daysC. his life nowD. his family B Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don‘t agree with them. Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources， we are short of others， for example， fresh water.It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources， what can we use in the future and where can we move？ Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible. In our everyday life， we can do many things to prevent waste from happening，for example，turn off the water taps（水龙头） when we finish washing，turn off the lights when we leave the classroom，try not to order more food than we need，and so on. Little by little，everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day，if we do our best. 46.From the passage we know that some students often_____in the school.A.eat too muchB.don‘t work hardC.waste things?D.throw rubbish everywhere 47.Which is not mentioned in this passage？A.Fresh waterB.ForestC.OilD.Coal 48.What may happen in 100 years？A.We may still have enough oilB.We may still have enough coalC.We may have a little oilD.We may have no coal or oil to use 49.Which of the following is right？A.Waste brings problemsB.Waste can bring no problemC.China is rich in fresh water?D.Students never waste things 50.Which is the best title of this passage？A.Stop Wasting?B.School lifeC.Waste in the School?D.Rich Resources in China C One day a teacher was giving her young students a lesson on how the government works . She wastrying to explain the principle of income tax (收入税). “You see ,” she began , speaking slowly and carefully , “each person who works must pay part of his or her salary (薪水) to the government . If you make a high salary , your taxes are high . If you don’t make much money , your taxes are low .” “Is that clear ?” she asked . “Does everyone understand the meaning of income tax ?” The students nodded . Are there any questions ?” she asked . The students shook their heads . “Very good !” she said .” “Now , I would like you to take a piece of paper and write a short paragraph on the subject of income tax .” Little Joey was a slow learner . He had lots of problems with spelling and grammar , but this time he at least seemed to understand the task . He took his pen and after a few minutes , he handed the teacher the following composition : Once I had a dog . His name was Tax . I opened the door and in come Tax . 51．The teacher was trying to explain______one day . A．the basic principles of the income tax B．how the government works C．everyone should pay income tax D．how much tax one should pay for his income 52．After the teacher’s explanation ,____________. A．all the students shook their heads B．many of the students were still puzzled C．not all the students understood the meaning of income tax D．few students disagreed with their teacher 53．The students were asked____________. A．to say something about income tax B．to answer some questions on income tax C．to write a composition on “income tax” D．to explain the principle of income tax 54．Little Joey___________.

A．his composition had something to do with “income tax” B．“income tax” and “in come Tax” sound alike C．Little Joey was very clever D．“income tax” shares the same meaning with “in come Tax” D A good teacher is many things to many people. In my own experience, the people I respect the most and think about the most are the teachers who demanded the most discipline (纪律) from their students. I miss one teacher in particular that I had in high school. I think she was a good teacher because she was a very strict person. I remember very clearly a sign on her classroom door. It was a simple sign that said, “Laboratory : in this room the first five letters of the word was stressed not the last seven.” In other words, labor for her was more important than oratory, which means making speeches. She prepared her work very carefully and told us to do the same. We got lots of homework from her. Once she had broken her arm, and everybody in the class thought that maybe the homework load would be reduced, but it continued just the same. She checked our work by stamping her name at the bottom of thepapers to show that she had read them. I think sometimes teachers who demand the most are liked the least. But as time goes by, this discipline really seems to benefit the students. 56.Which of the following is considered a good teacher by the writer?A.A patient teacher.B.An honest teacher.C.A strict teacher.D.An easy-going teacher. 57.The teacher put up the sign on her classroom door . A.to remind the students that this room was a laboratory B.to advise the students to follow the disciplines C.to warn the students not to be careless D.to tell the students to work hard in the classroom 58.When the teacher’s arm was broken,she_________. A.gave her students the usual amount of homework B.gave her students less homework C.asked her students to check the homework themselves D.gave her students more homework 59.What’s the writer’s opinion of discipline? A.It makes the students dislike their teachers. B.It does good to the students . C.It’s too much for young children. D.It does more harm than good to the students. 60.What’s the Chinese for the underlined word “oratory”?A. 演讲B. 讲稿C. 访谈D. 采访 第Ⅱ卷 （共四节，共60分） 第一节：选词填空（共10题，每小题1分，共10分） remove belongs to at war highly in return survives took doubt search worth The Amber Room ____61__the seven wonders of the world.
