As we were leaving, we found that only min utes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete. Her husband was withher, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was em barrassed and clearly in shock.Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset abo ut what had happened to the couple. He said to me, “Mum,it’s not much fun falling over in front of everyone.”At the front of the supermarket a charity(慈善) group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flo wers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy th e lady a flower. “It will make her feel better,” he said. I was am azed that he’d come up with such a sweet idea. So we went o ver to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. “Just take it,” she replied. “I can’t take your money for such a wonderful gesture.”By now paramedics(救援人员)had arrived, and were attending the injured woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her.Instead I gave the flower to the woman’s husband and told hi m, “ My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give h er this flower to make her feel better.”At that, the old man started crying and said, “Thank you so m uch, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother’s Day to you.”The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, tellingher who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old la dy looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.What doesthe author intend to tell us?A. One can never be too careful.B.

(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分。

)AIt all started at the beginning of this term. At first, Carmen was n’t really sure what was happening. In class, she had to squint (眯眼) to see the blackboard clearly. As it got worse, she became more and more worried. It was important for her to see the no tes and homework the teacher wrote on the board.In class, she asked for a desk that was closer to the blackboa rd. One day, her teacher said, “Carmen,I’ve noticed you squinting a lot. Are you having trouble seeing the board?” Carmen shook her head. “I’m fine, Mrs. Cruz.”At home, she had to sit closer and closer to the television. Her mother noticed her squinting as she watched her favorite sho ws.“Tomorrow I will go to see a doctor,” she said firmly. Three da ys later, Carmen had new glasses. She was told to wear them all the time. “All of the kids at school will think I’m a nerd (书呆子),” she said. “You look just as beautiful with those glasses o n as you do without them,” her mother said. But Carmen didn’t believe her.The next day, Carmen kept the glasses in her pocket as she walked into the schoolyard. Suddenly, she heard her friend Th eresa shout. “What’s wrong?” she asked.“My silver ring is gone!” Theresa cried. Carmen could tell that Theresa was very upset. They all looked for the ring in the gra ssy area of the playground.Carmen realized that she could search better if she could see better. She took the glasses out of her pocket and put them o n. Everything looked so different! So clear! And a glimmer (微光) of silver caught her eye.“Here it is,” she shouted. “Thanks Carmen,” Theresa said. “I d idn’t know you wore glasses. They look great!”“Thanks,” Car men replied shyly.As they walked back toward the school building, two more girl s praised her glasses. Carmen smiled. “Maybe wearing glass es won’t be so bad after all,” she thought.1. According to the text, Carmen ______.A. doesn’t like doing homeworkB. often tells lies to her teacherC. cares how well she does in lessonsD. has trouble getting along with her classmates2. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A. Other girls expect to have new glasses.B. Carmen will get used to wearing glasses.C. Wearing glasses will make Carmen look beautiful.D. Carmen hopes to receive more comments on her glasses.3. The purpose of the text is to tell readers ______.A. how to protect their eyesB. never to make fun of othersC. things aren’t always as bad as we expectD. it is necessary to give a hand to those in troubleBOne afternoon Peter and Jim went out for a bicycle ride. Whe n they passed a place they saw a large area of grass and bus hes on fire and a strong wind was blowing the flames towards a village. The firemen had already arrived and were trying to put out the fire. The boys left their bicycles and ran towards th e village to see if they could help to fight the fire. On the way t hey met two firemen.“Quick, you boys,” said one of the firemen. “Come and help u s to pull a pump (泵) to the stream. We can’t beat out the fire. The wind is too strong. The pump is our only hope.”The two boys ran further until they came to a heavy pump. Th ey helped to pull it to a stream not far from the village.Soon the pump was working well so the boys went to watch th e fire. It had already reached the edge of the village. The boys saw that two houses were on fire, and the flames were attack ing a third building. Suddenly there was a shout from one of th e villagers.“Keep away!” a voice shouted. “There’s paint stored in that bu ilding.” The boys and villagers moved away quickly. With a lou d explosion (爆炸), the whole building burst into flames, sending clouds of thick black smoke into the sky.At this time Peter and Jim began to think that the whole villag e would be burnt to the ground. The firemen had left the burni ng buildings and were pouring (浇) water onto the neighboring houses, trying to stop the fire from spreading. Then the wind died down. A second pump was brought up to help, and the fir e was gradually put out.“It’s soon finished,” Peter said to his friend. “We must go or w e shall get home late.”“Yes, come on,” agreed Jim, and witha last look at the ruins, they walked back to their bicycles.4. Seeing the fire, the boys ran to the village to _____.A. watch itB. ask for helpC. help the firemenD. warn the villagers5. The villagers were told to keep away from the fire mainly be cause _____.A. their help was unnecessaryB. it was spreading very rapi dlyC. two burning buildings were falling downD. one of the buildings stored a lot of paint6. The firemen tried to stop the fire from spreading by _____.A. using an airplaneB. using more fire enginesC. pulling down the burning housesD. pouring water ontothe neighboring houses7. According to the text, _____.A. no one knew how the fire broke outB. two pumps were used to put out the fireC. two buildings were burnt down during the fireD. the boys didn’t leave until the fire was put outCScientists in Colombia have trained a team of rats to help rem ove land mines from the countryside. Land mines are small b ombs (炸弹) hidden in the ground and designed to explode when some one steps on them.When trained, the rats can smell special metals in the mines a nd then signal to their human team. Then why use rats for suc h an important job?In the past, dogs have been used to find bombs. Rats have a good sense of smell and can respond to orders, just like dogs do. But rats are much lighter than dogs. They stand less of a chance of setting off the mines, which explode under a certain amount of weight. What’s more, the best rats are cheaper to keep than dogs. It costs about the same amount of money to t ake care of one dog as it does 70 rats.The rats have already been used in Tanzania, an African cou ntry with many land mines. Luisa Fernanda Méndez and her t eam in Colombia are training the even lighter Wistar rats. The se are the white rats with red eyes that scientists often use in l aboratory experiments. “They even train their babies to perfor m their jobs, which saves us a lot of time,”Méndez said. Colombia has the second-highest rate (比率) of deaths from land mine accidents in the world. Last year, land mines killed 695 people — 56 of whom were children. A criminal (犯罪的) group called the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia , or FARC, as well as other organizations, have placed the mi nes. FARC are strongly against Colombia’s government. The group has placed mines all around its own bases and in many places in the countryside.In the past, the Colombian government hired peasants and po or farmers to find mines. Many of them died trying to find the well-hidden bombs.Colombian police official Erick Gu zmán hopes the team of rat s can come to the rescue. “These rats will be a great help,” he said.8. How do rats help to find land mines?A. By their sense of smell.B. By their light weight.C. By their special sight.D. By their excellent hearing.9. The advantage of rats over dogs in finding bombs is that __ ___.A. they are clevererB. they run fasterC. they have a better sense of smellD. they don’t make mi nes explode as easily10. The underlined word “They” may refer to _____.A. dogsB. scientistsC. Wistar ratsD. Méndez and her team11. What is the text mainly about?A. People in Tanzania are suffering from land mines.B. Specially-trained rats help clear land mines.C. Dogs are no longer used to find land mines.D. Land mines have become a great danger to Colombians.DThink about the longest elevator ride that you’ve ever taken. Whether you rose five floors or 100, it probably took less than a few minutes. Now imagine riding in an elevator higher and h igher as it climbs for nearly a day. When you reach the top floor, prepare for views that are really out of this world. You’ll be in space!Space elevators might sound like a crazy idea, but they’re so mething scientists have been working on for decades.Why would anyone want a space elevator? At the moment, rid ing in a capsule is the only way ordinary people can get to and from space. But those rides are very expensive — about $25 million per person per flight. Now scientists are making effo rts to reduce the expense of those rides.Researchers are still figuring out the details about how a spac e elevator might work. One idea is stretching (伸展) a very long cable(绳索)— more than 37,000 kilometers — up to space from the earth’s equator (赤道). The location is important: Objects in space above the equ ator orbit (绕……的轨道飞行) the earth at the same speed that our planet turns. A weigh t on the end of the cable would stretch it tight. An elevator tied to the cable could use it to climb up and down.The only problem is that besides being long, this cable must a lso be very strong. Storms, including hurricanes might break it . One way to solve this problem is to stretch the cable from th e moon instead of from the earth. Airplanes designed to climb higher than a typical jet might take off from the earth and link up with the cable, which would be held in place by the pull of gravity from the earth. An elevator car waiting there would the n take riders the rest of the way to the moon. Fueled by solar power, the elevator could transport people and materials with out much expense or effort per ride.So, when will you be taking your first space-elevator ride? Probably not for a while.12. The first paragraph is presented by _____.A. giving an exampleB. making a comparisonC. asking questionsD. analyzing causes13. Why have scientists been working on space elevators?A. To make trips to space cheaper.B. To help astronauts do research in space.C. To find a more convenient way to the moon.D. To prove an assumption which seems crazy.14. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to _____.A. the cableB. the equatorC. an object in spaceD. a weight on the end of the cable15. What may make the cable stay in place on the moon?A. The elevator car on the moon.B. The elevator fastened to the cable.C. The pull of gravity from the earth.D. The speed of the moon orbiting the earth.第二节:根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

This can be especially true of children. They may feel cut off from their friends and classmates. Now,these children may have a high-tech friend to help feel less lonely. That friend is a robot.The robot is called Avatar l (AV1). It takes their place at school. Through the robot, the children can hear their teachers and friends. They also can take part in classes from wherever they are recovering. And the children’s school friends must help. They carry the rob ot between classes and place the robot on their desks.A Norwegian company called No Isolation created the robot. There are another twoco-founders: Karen Dolva and Marious Aabel.Dolva explains how the robot works. She says from home the child uses an iPad or a phone to start the robot, control the robot’s movements with touch, and talk through it. The child can take part in classroom activities. The robot is equipped with speakers, microphones and cameras that make communicating easy. So it’s the eyes and the ears and the voice of the child at school. Inside AV1 is a small computer connected to a 4G network. A small camera connected to a small computer could do the job. But that would not be the same.from a desk without damage. AV1 is large and looks like a human for a reason. Dolva says it can’t be just a tiny camera because the other kids can’t pick it up and take it with them. This is important because the robot is supposed to be a friend to the children.Hopefully AV1 will help some children feel less lonely while they were absent from class.28. What is the passage mainly about?A. The robot has been used widely in many fieldsB. The robot may help sick children feel less lonelyC. The robot will take sick children to take part in classesD. The robot can make friends with sick children29. According to the passage, AV1 may be started through _______.A. a computerB. a cameraC. an iPadD. a speaker30. What does the underlined word “tough” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. AttractiveB. AmazingC. StrongD. Fancy31. Where does this passage probably come from?A. A science textbookB. A science reportC. A tourist guideD. An exhibition guideDYou may think, salt is just a simple cooking element we shake on our food for a little extra taste. But salt is much more than that.
