C
I arrived at my mother's home for our Saturday family dinner. The smells of food flew over from the kitchen. My mother was pulling out quilt after quilt from the boxes, proudly showing me their beauties. I knew they were all made herself. She was preparing for a quilt show on TV. When we began to fold and put them back into the boxes, I noticed something at the bottom of one box. I pulled it out.
"What's this?" I asked.
"Oh?" Mom said, "That's Mama's quilt."
I spread the quilt. It looked as if a group of school children had made the pieces together. "Grandmother made this?" I asked in surprise. My grandmother was a master at making quilts. This certainly didn't look like any of the quilts she had made.
"Yes, right before she died. I brought it home with me last year and made some changes," Mom said, "I'm still working on it. See, this is what I've done so far."
I looked at it more closely. She had made a line straight. At the center of the quilt, she had stitched a piece of cloth with these words: "My mother made many quilts. She didn't get all lines straight. But I think this is beautiful. I want to see it finished. Her last quilt."
"Oh, this is so nice, Mom." I said. I was sure now that by completing my grandmother's quilt, my mother was honoring her own mother. I realized that I held in my hands a family treasure. It started with the loving hands of one woman, and continued with the loving hands of another.（1）When the writer got home, his mother _________.

Kathy kept that special silk scarf for many years. One day she decided to give it to her granddaughter, Eliza, to wear to her first job interview for good luck. Kathy was afraid that Eliza would lose the scarf, but the granddaughter promised, "Don't worry, Grandma, nothing's going to
happen to your scarf. You'll see. It is going to bring both of us luck today, "And with that, Eliza kissed her grandmother and left for the interview.

As we were still young, we had a group leader who planned things for us and looked after us. After we got to London, we went to stay with different families. I was lucky that my host family （寄宿家庭）was a white couple who had a daughter about my age. They treated me as a daughter of their family during my stay there. They were interested in me and I learnt a lot of things from them, too.
The holiday was filled with activities every day. After breakfast, a local teacher would come to take us in his car. Then we would have classes or go on a sightseeing trip to different places of
interest like the Big Ben, the London Bridge, and the Buckingham Palace. We would go back to our own homes after the activities.

6．阅读理解
We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. "Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?" "When I got that
great job, did Jerry really feel good about as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it's too late.
Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don't really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, "You're a lucky dog." Is he really on your side? If he says, "You're a lucky guy." or "You're a lucky gal." That's being friendly. But "lucky dog"? There's a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn't see it himself. But bringing in the "dog" bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is he doesn't think you deserve your luck.
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture（体态）? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. Spend some time thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you, and you may save another mistake.
（1）The questions in the first paragraph tell us that the speaker ___________________.
A. feels happy because his friends were nice to him
B. feels he may not have "read" his friends' true feelings correctly
C. thinks it was a mistake to have broken up with his girlfriend Helen
D. is sorry that his friends let him down
（2）From the example "You're a lucky dog", we can learn that ______________.
A. the speaker of the sentence is friendly
B. it means the same as "You're a lucky guy." or "You're a lucky gal."
C. sometimes the words used by the speaker give a tip to the feeling behind the words
D. the word "dog" shouldn't be used to describe a person
（3）The passage tries to tell you how to ___________.
A. avoid mistakes about money and friends
B. bring the "dog" bit into our conversation
C. be friendly to other people
D. avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you
（4）What is important in listening to a person?
A. To notice his tone, his posture and the look in his eyes.
B. To listen to how he pronounces his words.
C. To check if his words go well with his manner, his tone of voice and his posture.
D. Don't believe what he says.
（5）If you follow the writer's advice, you would ____________.
A. be able to get the real meaning of people's words
B. avoid any mistakes while talking with the people who envy you
C. not lose real friends who say things that do not please you
D. be able to observe people as they are talking to you

Don't Judge a Book by Its Cover
Ever since I was a little girl, I've loved reading crime and detective （侦探） novels, so I guess it was pretty normal that I started writing them when I was older. However, my family is very big on having a traditional career （职业） and so when I said that I wanted to go to college and study writing, my parents told me that I couldn't. They told me that I had to study for a degree so that I would achieve a career, and not something as risky as writing. I suppose I could have studied joumalism （新闻）,but I didn't want to lose interest in writing because it would be something I would do every day for work, not for pleasure. I thought that teaching looked like a pretty good compromise （妥协） , especially because of the long holidays. It was a good choice: by the time I was twenty-five，I'd already finished two novels and had an agent.
To be honest, I never meant to keep my being a crime writer a secret or anything, and my friends have always known. One of the reasons most people don't know is because my agent told me that my name Hazel sounded too much like a romance （浪漫） novelist for older women. She suggested Brooke Lane and I thought, "Well, if you think it'll make me successful, okay," I'd totally forgotten about it until I walked into school one day and saw one of my workmates reading my novel. I asked her some questions about it, and it was so clear that she had no idea that I'd written it - she even offered to lend it to me after she'd finished! Of course, sometimes I wonder what my students would think if they knew that their teacher was going home on the weekend to write about murders and dead bodies, but I think my parents probably did me a favor: my teaching job keeps me in touch with the real world.
（1）Hazel is probably ．
A. an agent
B. a journalist
C. a teacher and artist
D. a teacher and writer （2）The underlined words "is very big on " in the passage most probably mean .
A. to give no advice
B. to like something very much
C. to have more experiences
D. to misunderstand something
（3）It's clear that Hazel .
A. agreed to study journalism for a degree
B. accepted Brooke Lane as her pen name
C. would like to write something for teaching
D. told her workmates about her writing novels
（4）Hazel finally realized that her parents' advice on her career was .
A. helpful
B. exciting
C. disappointing
D. risky
（5）We can infer from the passage that .
A. Hazel likes showing off in public
B. Hazel's students all want to write novels
C. Hazel's agent has played a role in her success
D. older women prefer the name Brooke to Hazel
【答案】（1）D
（2）B
（3）B
（4）A

8．阅读理解
If you put a buzzard in a pen six to eight feet square and open at the top, the bird will be a prisoner, though it can fly. The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet. Without space to run, as its habit, it will not even try to fly, but remain a prisoner for life in its small buzzard prison with no top.
The bat that flies around at night cannot take off from the ground. If it is placed on the ground all it can do is to walk slowly about helplessly and no doubt, painfully. If it reaches a higher place, it will be able to throw itself into the air. Then it takes off immediately. But on flat（平的）ground, it will never fly.
A bee dropped into a cup will be there until it dies, unless it is taken out. It never sees the means of escape at the top, but keeps trying to find some way out through the sides near the bottom. It will look for a way where none exists（存在）, until it completely destroys itself.
In many ways, there are lots of people like the buzzard, the bat and the bee. They are struggling about with all their problems and difficulties, not realizing that the answer is right there above them.
（1）Which of the following is a "pen" according to Paragraph 1?
A. B. C. D.
（2）Why can't a buzzard fly through the top of a pen?
A. It is too big and heavy to fly up.
B. The space is too small for it to start flying.
C. It is too hungry and weak to get out
D. The place is comfortable for it to live.
（3）What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about the bat?
A. It prefers walking to flying.
B. It can take off at once on flat ground.
C. It flies only at night.
D. It takes off only from a higher place.
（4）What can a bee do if it drops into a cup?
A. It'll escape from the top.
B. It'll stay at the bottom without moving.
C. It'll lose the ability to fly.
D. It'll die of tiredness at last.
（5）What can we learn from the story?
A. Many people like the buzzard, the bat and the bee.
B. Animals will also give up when in trouble.
C. We should try new ways to deal with difficulties.
D. We should solve problems by ourselves.
【答案】（1）D
（2）B
（3）D
（4）D
（5）C
【解析】【分析】文章大意：本文作者用秃鹰、蝙蝠和大黄蜂三种动物作比喻，告诉我们世上的有些人使劲浑身招数，试图解决问题，克服挫折，却没有意识到解决之道就在眼前这个哲理里。

（1）细节题。

根据 If you put a buzzard in a pen six to eight feet square and open at the top, 你把秃鹰放在六到八英尺的围栏里在顶部打开。

根据six to eight feet square and open at the top可知六到八英尺的围栏顶部开着，pen围栏，故选D。

（2）细节题。

根据 The reason is that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a run of ten to twelve feet. Without space to run, as its habit, it will not even try to fly, 因为秃鹰开始从地上飞总是跑十步或者十二步。

因为它的习性，没有空间奔跑，它甚至不会尝试飞行。
