OneB. TwoC. ThreeD. FourBMy favorite great book is The Adventure of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain. Tom lives with his aunt Polly in a quiet street of St. Petersburg, Missouri. He's a lively and clever young boy, and he finds himself in many exciting adventures (冒险). He runs away with his two friends, Huck Finn and Joe, to an island in the middle of the Mississippi River for several days. With Huck he goes looking for treasure, with Becky he gets lost in a cave. and finally, they find a box of gold.My favorite scene in the book is when everyone thinks Tom is dead. He decides to go to his own funeral. He hides and watches for a time. and then suddenly he appears. Everyone is surprised to see him but they’re also pleased to see him alive.Tom is the hero of the story, but there are other important characters. Huck is an outsider and everyone is afraid of him. Becky is pretty with fair hair, Joe is Tom’s best friend. and Injun Joe is the bad man of the story.The theme of the story is about children growing up. It describes how strangers are seen in small towns of America. Finally, it talks about freedom, social rules and how people are punished for bad behavior.Why do I think The Adventure of Tom Sawyer is a great book? Mark Twain wrote the story in 1876, but it’s still read and loved by people all over the world today. And although it’s only a story. Twain wrote it in the everyday English of the southern states of America in the 19th century, so it sounds very real. Today it’s th ought to be one of the greatest books in American literature. Go on--- read it! I know you’ll enjoy it, too.( )34.Where does Tom run away with his two friends?A. To a quiet street.B. To a small town.C. To an island.D. To a forest.( )35.Who is the bad man in the story?A. Huck Finn.B. Injun Joe.C. Becky.D. Polly.( )36.The whole book is mainly about _______.A. freedom and social rulesB. children's bad behaviourC. the growth of young childrenD. strangers in American small towns( )37.The writer writes the article to _______.A. ask us to read the bookB. tell us how popular the book is todayC. tell us when Mark Twain wrote the storyD. tell us why the story sounds very realCThere are no signs of little green men on Mars. But new discoveries offer a bit more hope that some forms of life existed there in the past—and perhaps is still there at present. Methane (甲烷) and water have been found on the red planet. They both show the possibility of life.According to a new report, the Mars rover Curiosity (好奇号火星探测器) has checked some methane in the air. This kind of gas is also found in Earth’s atmosphere (大气层). It comes from animal and plant life, and from the environment itself. If there’s methane in Mars’s atmosphere, where is it from? Scientists are not sure. But it marks a big change. In September 2013, Curiosity found there was almost no methane in the Martian air. Just months later, however, the rover picked up a bit of this kind of gas.“It surprised us,” says Christopher Webster in California. He is the lead scientist for the instrument on the rover that checks methane. Webster says, “Every time we looked there w as methane. But finding out what’s responsible for methane is really important.”The discovery of water on Mars is nothing new. For about ten years, scientists have had facts that it appeared on the surface of the planet millions of years ago. But according to another new report from Curiosity, while the surface water on Mars seems to be long gone, there’s a lot more of it left than most people realize.But where there is (or was) water, there could be (or could have been) life.( )38. The rover has discovered _______ on Mars recently.A. menB. lifeC. oilD. methane( )39. The underlined word “It” refers to _______.A. the discovery of methane on MarsB. the sign of green men on MarsC. Mars’s atmosphereD. the red planet( )40. Wh at’s Webster’s main job?A. To do some experiments.B. To manage the instrument on the rover.C. To search for methane on Mars.D. To find out if there is water on Mars. ( )41. What’s the best title of this passage?A. The future of MarsB. The history of MarsC. More hope for life on MarsD. Chances of working on MarsDAt East China University of Science and Technology, students will get a coupon (优惠券) if they eat up their food. Students can collect coupons and exchange them for small gifts, such as books, magazines, mobile phone covers and hand warmers.“It’s been such a surprise,” said Liang Zhaoyun, 19, a student at the university in Shanghai. “It has given us one more motivation to finish our food.”The measure is part of a national“eat-up”campaign(行动) which is organized by students to deal with food waste in campuses(校园).Why only in campuses, you might ask? Because according to a report by Xinhua News Agency, students waste twice as much food as the national average(平均).The campaign on campus food waste is receiving attention across the country.“The aim of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food. We hope it can also encourage students to choose a more environment-friendly and healthy lifestyle.” said Tao Siliang, secretary of the Youth League Committee at Shanghai University.But some school food is poorly prepared, so students do not like to finish it all. Some schools have taken notice of this and they are taking measures to improve it.“I’m glad that we’ve reduced foo d waste since the ‘eat-up’campaign began. But if we call on students to waste less food, we should also improve the service and food standard i n campuses.”said Tao.( )42. The underlined word "motivation" in Paragraph 2 means _____ ___ in Chinese.A. 动力B. 机会C. 试验D. 条件( )43.

Meals in UniversitiesD. ‘Eat-up’ Campaign in Campuses四、词汇运用（共10小题；每小题1分，计10分）根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。
