A hobby can be almost anything a person likes to do in his spare time. Hobbyists raise pets，build model ships，weave baskets，watch birds，hunt animals，climb mountains，raise flowers，fish，ski，skate and swim. Hobbyists also paint pictures，attend concerts and plays，and perform on musical instruments. They collect everything from books to butterflies and from shells to stamps.
People take up hobbies because these activities offer enjoyment，friendship，knowledge，and relaxation. Sometimes they even give financial profits.Hobbies help people relax after periods of hard work，and provide a balance between work and play.

People today have more time than ever before for hobbies. Machines have reduced the amount of time they must spend on their jobs. Hobbies provide variety for workers who do the same unchanging tasks all day long. More people are retiring than ever before，and at an earlier age. Those who have developed hobbies never need to worry about what to do with their newly found spare time hours.

In today’s world English is the most wi ldly used language. It is our duty to learn English in the new situation of the reform and opening(改革开放) to the outside world. How can we master the English language ? I’d like to give you some good advice.
First, get interested in it. I enjoy listening to foreign friends talking when I was a child. At the same time I watched the English programme Follow Me on TV. From
then on, I kept on learning English. The more I learned, the more progress I made.
Second, practice makes perfect. Many people study English very hard, but they are very shy to speak it in public, for they are afraid of making mistakes. Remember you have to make a mistake before you can correct it. A native English speaker makes mistakes sometimes, too.
Third, the beginners should be encouraged to pay attention to idioms. The English language has many idioms. For example, you should say “ He is as strong as a cow.”
60. The writer wants to tell us ____________.
A. the importance of learning English
B. the new situation of the reform and opening to the outside world
C. some good ideas on how to master English
D. the wide use of the English language
A four­year­old boy has bee pen pals with Britain's Queen Elizabeth.Tom Stanbe started exchanging letters with the queen after he set free a balloon，carrying his name and address，at a school party and it landed in the grounds of Windsor Castle.
The queen spotted the balloon and asked her personal assistant，Angela Kelly，to write a letter on her behalf.
She wrote，“The queen was delighted to find that your balloon had traveled all the way to the gardens at Windsor Castle.”
Tom，who proudly put the letter on his wall，wrote back to say that his great，great grandfather，the artist Petrus Johannes Arundzen，had been missioned (正式委托) to copy Dutch masters' on display at Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace.
Angela at once replied that she would contact the Royal Collection to find out what had happened to the art works.She kept her word and two weeks later wrote to Tom to tell him what had happened to the etchings，explaining they now form part of the print collection in the Print Library.
Angela then asked a favor of Tom，writing，“Would you be able to ask your Mummy and Daddy for me if they know anything more about your great，great grandfather.Royal Collection would love to know more about him.”
Along with his parents，Tom wrote back to fill in all the gaps about Petrus Johannes Arundzen.
Although Tom's parents don't think there will be any more letters exchanged between the pair，they were touched that she had taken time to contact them.
Tom's father said，“I don't expect we'll get another one，but I think it's incredible they bothered replying at all.”

D
Have you ever seen a horse with toes (脚趾)? Millions of years ago, horses had many toes. They had four toes on each front foot. They had three toes on each back foot. The horses were smaller than cats.
These small horses lived in the forest. Their many toes helped the horses run over the soft wet ground.
It was very hot in the forest. But the weather changed. It became cold. Many trees could n’t live in cold weather. The trees died and fell. Open field took the place of
(代替) forest. The sun made the ground dry and hard (坚硬). Horses began to change too. They began to get bigger. This took a long time. On the dry hard land, horses needed only their middle toes for running. Their middle toes became hard. After a long time horses had only one hard toe on each foot. We call this hard toe a hoof (马蹄).
For instance, try to find a time to talk when your parents all not angry, tired, distracted, or hungry. A good time to talk is when you're all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversation begins to turn into an argument, you'd better calmly
and coolly ask to stop the conversation—for now.__72__ Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that you're listening.__73__.
Respect is the building block of good munication. People who respect each other and care about each others' feelings call disagree without things getting ugly.
__74__ How do you build trust? Trust es by actually doing what you say you're going to do. Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships. Sometimes we forget that parents are more than rule­makers—they're interesting people who like to watch movies. And go shopping—just like their teenagers!
What do you do if you are trying your best, but your relationship with your parents continues to be rocky？ 75 You can find supportive adults, such as a teacher or a coach, who can lend an ear.
Remember you can only change your own behavior. Your parents are the only ones who can change theirs.
A．It also gives them a chance to clear things up if you're not on the same page.
B．You can pick it up again when everyone's more relaxed.
C．And then you'll be able to accept what your parents say.
D．Faced with the challenge, children don't know what to do.
E．You are more likely to get along with your parents and have more independence if your parents believe in you.
F．And your desire to take control of your own life is growing.
G．You may consider seeking outside help.

参考答案
答案与解析：
单项选择
21．A report 可数名词， a recent report 一份近来的报告，是泛指；第二个空填the 表特指示2090年。

22．B 句意：罗斯生在香港，但在美国长大，因为她父母因某种原因去了那儿工作。

bring up“抚养，带大”，符合题意。

23．A 考查宾语从句的用法。

句意：路面上满是雪，我不明白他们为什么坚持骑摩托车。

24．D 本题考查交际用语。

go ahead可用于鼓励对方继续说下去，意为“可以；往下说吧”。

25．D it在此处作形式宾语，代替真正的宾语动词不定式。

26．A 句意是：凯特工作到深夜写完报道，这样她的老板第二天早晨就可以读到它了。

so that 用来引导目的状语从句。

27．A 这是一个由what引导的主语从句和宾语从句构成的复合句。

what分别在这两个从句中作does和says的宾语。

that引导名词性从句只起引导句子的作用，在所引导的名词性从句中不作任何成分。

28．A．振作起来。

考察交际用语在语境中的活用。

29．D 考查固定搭配。

句意：“在你看来，谁是世界上最好的篮球运动员？”“姚明，我认为他在篮球上很有天赋。

”have a gift for...“对……有天赋”。

30．C 从意思上看，选项后面的句子和sign是同位语，那么，只有that才能引导一个陈述语气的同位语从句。

31．B 题意表示“被……围绕”，用surrounded作状语。

round意为“绕过”。

32．D 由答语后半句“She isn't alone”可知不是太担心，故用slightly。

33．A 定语从句中的who指代her classmates，故谓语动词用复数；as well as连接两个并列名词作主语时，谓语动词要和其前面的主语my sister保持一致，故第二空用单数。

34．D 分析句子结构知，此处为动名词短语作主语；he与make the same mistake之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，当强调其逻辑主语时，其前可加相应的形容词性物主代词或名词所有格形式。

35．B 考查倍数的表达法。

句意：大约有一千一百万人搬到这座城市，现在这座城市的人口是十年前的两倍。

表示倍数时，其结构为“倍数＋as＋adj./adv.＋as...”；此处as ten years ago为省略句，补充完整为as it was ten years ago。

完形填空
47．B 根据语境when there was a knock on the door判断，这里指Josie 去开门，answer 在此表示“应门声开门”。

48．A 根据后面的信息词some water和信息句when she returned to the living room可以推测，Josie是去厨房找水。

49．C gone在此表示“不见了”。

50．A 语境found Sarah sleeping in her bed强调的是结果，因此in the end(最终)符合语境。

51．D 根据后面的语境because Sarah couldn't...the stairs without help because they were very steep可以推测，这是不可能发生的事情。

52．C 根据原因状语从句because they were very steep中的信息词steep(陡峭的)可以知道，这里指Sarah是不可能自己爬到楼上去的。

53．A 由上文可知，Sarah睡到了楼上她的床上，因此这里强调Josie将Sarah带下了楼。

54．C 语境Then the phone rang表明了这里是指我的外婆打电话说我外公去世了。
