D．An old woman with her daughter.According to a recent research, more than 130 billion pounds of uneaten food goes to waste in Laura’s country each year. That is about 30% of the yearly food supply. It is a sad fact, especially when you consider how many families and homeless people are in hunger.Every day when Laura saw her school dining hall throw away food that was not eaten at all, she came up with an idea. She started a project to help her school dining hall to donate uneaten food to homeless shelters in her community. In the past three years, projects of the same kind have spread to other schools and even out-school areas—some of the fast food restaurants throughout the city. The project is called Find & Feed. It has already fed thousands of people in her city.How does it work? Through an app, Find & Feed matches local homeless shelters with school dining halls and restaurants, that have uneaten food to provide. When dining halls or restaurants have uneaten food left, they can use the app to share the information about the food. A truck driver working for the project then picks it up and takes it to a shelter nearby. Pretty cool, right?It’s not surprising that people in other cities have contacted Laura, hoping that she could have developed similar projects for their communities.Some people, however, have worries about the safety of the uneaten food. They think such food may not be clean enough. Still, this project is a clever way to help solve the problem of food waste and it helps those in need.19．The data in Paragraph 1 show us _________.A．people are poor B．food waste is seriousC．the population is large D．the research is interesting20．At first, Laura’s project got food from _________.A．her school dining hall B．her familyC．a fast food restaurant D．homeless shelter21．Which of the following sentences is TRUE?A．Laura has visited many communities in her city.B．The local homeless shelters pick the food up by themselves.C．The truck driver uses an app to share the food information.D．People in other cities are interested in Laura’s project.22．Which can be the best title for this passage?A．A Dining Guide App B．A Food Sharing ProjectC．A Driving Service APP D．A Food Safety Project三、多任务混合阅读One night, the boss of a big company needed to call one of his workers. Because there was a serious problem with their main computer system. And the worker was the only person who could solve it.He dialed the worker’s home phone number and was greeted with a little girl’s whisper. “Hello?” the boss asked, “Is your daddy at home?” “Yes,” whispered a small voice. “May I talk with him?” the man asked. To the surprise of the boss. the small voice whispered, “No.”Wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, “Is your mommy there?” “Yes,” came the answer. “May I talk with her?” Again, the small voice whispered, “No.”Knowing that it was impossible that a young child would be left home alone, the boss decided he would just leave a message to the person who should be there watching over the child. “Is there anyone besides you?” the boss asked the child. “Yes,” whispered the child, “A policeman.”Wondering what a policeman would be doing at his worker’s house, the boss asked,“May I speak with the policeman?”“No, he’s busy!” whispered the child. “Busy doing what?” asked the boss. “Talking to daddy and mommy and the fireman.” came the whispered answer.Growing more and more worried as he heard something like a helicopter through the phone, the boss asked, “What is the noise?” “A helicopter,” answered the whispered voice. “What is going on there?” asked the boss, now alarmed.In a serious whispering voice, the child answered, “The search team has just landed the helicopter.” Shocked, worried and more than just a little disappointed, the boss asked, “Why are they there?” Still whispering, the you ng voice replied along with an unclear giggling, “They are looking for me.”23．Why did the boss call the worker?A．A main computer had broken down.B．He wanted to join in the game.C．He wanted to talk to the child.D．He always cared about his workers.24．W hat does the underlined word “alarmed” (in Paragraph 7) mean?A．surprised B．interested C．warm-hearted D．afraid 25．According to the passage, what was happening in fact?A．The boss was offering help.

Those satellites can be able to help scientists keep a closer eye on heavy storms, and they develop a task called TROPICS to send the satellites to space. Importantly, the satellites will help us make a big difference in watching coming heavy storms.At the moment, NASA’s weather satellites can only check in on a storm every four to six hours. “So we’re missing a lot of what’s happening in the storm,” Bill Blackwell, at the MIT Lincoln Laboratory, said. However, the new set of six satellites will allow researchers to check in on a storm about every hour.After sending the satellites, scientists will put them in a perfect place to watch the areas where most storms are born, from the center of America to the south of Australia. Each satellite is just under 0. 3 meters long with a powerful machine that’s about as big as a cup of coffee. The small machine can measure heat and light produced from O₂ and H₂O in the air, then the data will be sent to the Earth.It will bring many advantages. First, the data measured by the TROPICS satellites will help researchers study better how a storm grows. They can even build a 3 D model of a storm developing with the help of satellites. Also, scientists will know when the storm will come and get people to safety as soon as possible. Just like last year, hundreds of people died because of Storm Ida coming overnight. It won’t happen anymore.That makes it all more import ant to have more eyes over the sky. “The TROPICS team is super excited to send these satellites and get them running,” Bill Blackwell said in NASA statement.19. The new satellites can ________.A．watch the coming stormsB．reach space in a short timeC．check in on a storm every minuteD．find a perfect place for themselves20. These new satellites work by ________.A．producing O₂ and H₂O in the airB．collecting different kinds of stormsC．measuring the heat and light of the airD．making a 3 D model of a storm growing21. The writer mentioned Storm Ida in Paragraph 4 to show ________.A．storms will not come any moreB．the new six satellites are importantC．it’s hard to stay away from the stormD．scientists do much research on satellites22. What’s the best title of the passage?A．The Coming Great Future LifeB．TROPICS—A Wonderful TaskC．Little Satellites, Big DifferenceD．Say Goodbye to Dangerous StormsMarty was new at school. Usually, when you’re the new kid, you lay low, he made a toothpick disappear. One second he was holding the toothpick, and the next second it was gone! Everyone was asking him how he did it.“It’s magic!” Marty said proudly. “At my old school, they actually called me Magic Marty.”“Seriously?” I thought, turning to walk away. “It’s not magic. He’s telling lies to everyone, and I’m going to find out how he does it!”That night at home, I found a box of toothpicks, trying to find out how Marty had made one disappear. But the only thing I learned was how to poke my hand 11 times with a toothpick. I put all the toothpicks into the box and went to bed.The next day, Marty was going on about how he could make things float. He had a ring in one hand and a pencil in the other. I watched from the back, hoping to catch a mistake.That was when I saw a thin piece of fishing line tied around the end of the pencil and attached to a button on Marty’s shirt! Sure enough, he made the ring “float” by sliding it over the pencil and hanging it from the line. No one else noticed, and soon it was lunchtime. Everyone rushed to the dining hall. When the crowds were gone.“I know how you did it,” I said, folding my arms. “It was a fishing line.” Marty went silent. He looked nervous, are you going to tell people?”He asked. I thought about it for a moment. If I told, I’d finally be able to show that Marty’s magic was fake. But then Marty mi ght lose his new friends. How would that make him feel?“Nah,” I finally said. “I won’t say anything.”Marty let out a relaxing sigh, and I turned to walk away.“Wait!” Marty jumped in front of me. “You’ve got a pretty good eye for magic. If you’re in terested, we can do it together.”We’ve been a magic team for three months now. It turns out that Marty is not a fake magician, but a real friend.23. On Marty’s first day at school, the writer saw him ________.A．make a toothpick goneB．share a secret in the classC．keep silent in the classroomD．teach others to do the magic24. How did the writer find out the truth about Marty’s magic?A．Marty’s old friends told him everything.B．Marty taught him how to play that magic.C．He saw the line when Marty “floated” a ring.D．He worked out the secret of magic by himself.25. The writer kept the magic a secret to ________.A．make Marty feel terribleB．wait for the right time to tellC．learn more magic from MartyD．help Marty keep his new friends26.

When the coach started pitching, hitting became 1 for me. I missed every single pitch. From the side, I heard my teammate Emily laughing at me. My face got hot and my throat felt like it had a softball stuck in. At that moment, I was starting to 2 playing softball.The next afternoon, when Mum said it was time to play the game, I told her I was 3 . She allowed me to lie down for a while. So I went to my room and 4 myself in bed. This was difficult for me because I was fine.Soon Mum came in and said, "Time to go!" She didn't even ask if I felt 5 . I imagined Emily laughing from the sideline, and 6 I really did feel sick to my stomach. I began crying loudly. Still, Mum pulled my team T-shirt over my head. She said, "You have to play for the rest of the season, and only after that we can talk about 7 you′ll continue next year." She added that practice was what I needed, not giving up. She promised to practice with me.I got two hits that afternoon, and Emily didn't make a 8 .

But sleeping can also be dangerous because other animals may hurt those who are sleeping. This leads to many different ways of sleeping that help them stay safe. Some of these ways may surprise you!Almost all bats sleep upside down. They hang from a branch of a t ree or the ceiling of a cave. Up high, bats are safe from most other animals. If they are in danger, they just fly away.A dolphin sleeps with just half its brain at a time. It must stay awake to breathe and to watch for danger. Dolphin mothers and babies can go without sleep for as long as two months to stay safe.Some ducks sleep with just half their brains, too. These ducks often sleep in a line. The ducks at both ends help to keep the group safe. They keep one eye open to watch for danger. The ducksin the middle sleep deeply with both eyes closed.Seals breathe air, but that doesn’t stop some of them from sleeping underwater. They hold their breath and dive deep to sleep for up to twenty minutes at a time. Sleeping deep underwater helps these seals stay safe from animals that hunt them near the surface.Horses often sleep standing up. Their legs lock in place so they don’t fall over. If a horse is lying down, it needs a long time to get up. A horse can run from danger more quickly if it is already standing.A flamingo can sleep while standing on one leg. The standing leg locks so it stays straight. The other leg remains close to the flamingo’s body. Its head rests on its back. A flamingo lives (and sleeps) near many other birds to stay safe.Some seabirds can sleep while they fly. These large birds spend most of their lives over the ocean. They are in danger on the water, but they are safe in the air. They fly for many hours without flapping（拍打）their wings. Sometimes they sleep while they are flying.Would you like to sleep how they sleep?1. The animals that sleep with half their brains are _______.A. ducks and sealsB. dolphins and ducksC. bats and dolphinsD. flamingos and seabirds2. Horses often stand up when they sleep because _______.A. they can run from danger quicklyB. they are afraid of falling overC. this helps them to sleep deeplyD. it takes them a long time to go to sleep3. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. How animals sleepB. Sleep to stay healthyC. Sleep as animals doD. What sleeping animals are likeBLizzie's diary from Antarctica(南极洲)Day 3:Tuesday December 2We planned to go to Rothera that morning. We'd be staying there for the next two weeks. Because Antarctica is the windiest place on earth，sometimes you can't fly at all.We had a nervous wait over breakfast to find out if we'd be leaving that day. People have to stay in Stanley for weeks while the pilots wait for good weather.It turned clear at 9:30 and we took off at 10:30 on a little red plane called a Dash-7. But even when we were in the air，there was still a chance we wouldn't be able to fly the whole day.Day 4:Wednesday December 3After waking up in the Antarctic for the first time today I can understand why everybody who comes here falls in love with the place. It is really beautiful.We're staying at Rothera Survey base with mountains of ice all around. It's about minus 2℃today, which for me is very cold, but the regulars(常客)here are often seen walking around in T-shirts!Day 5:Thursday December 4I woke up to another beautiful sunny day here in the Antarctic. I'm told it's a bit colder today，about minus 5℃，but it's not very windy so it feels warmer. Those of us who are new to the base have to do a special training course before we're allowed to go off base to other stations or to go snowboarding over the nearby hill.Day 7:Saturday December 6Not a cloud in the sky and it's warm enough to sit outside(in a jacket).The most amazing thing about this place is how the scenery(风景)changes every day. At first I thought I was going mad. I'd step outside in the morning and think，"I'm sure that big mountain of ice wasn't there yesterday." It's because the sea ice is always moving一slowly thankfully!4. Lizzie sat outside wearing a jacket on .A. TuesdayB. WednesdayC. ThursdayD. Saturday5. What could stop Lizzie from leaving Stanley for Rothera?A. Strong winds.B. Thick clouds.C. Mountains of ice.D. Low temperatures.6. How did Lizzie feel during her stay in the Antarctic?A. Afraid.B. Nervous.C. Amazed.D. Bored.7. What impressed Lizzie most about Rothera was that .A. people walked around in T-shirtsB. there was a special training courseC. the weather was sometimes warmD. the scenery changed every dayCNowadays more and more children seem to get lost in a "sea of digital(数字) technology". As they use digital technology too much, they are losing their ability to do simple things. They can't make toys themselves with hands or help Mum cook dinner. And worst of all, they seem to be losing interest in communicating with others."I have talked with a number of teachers. They care about the increasing numbers of young pupils who can play with computers or smart phones, but have few or no skills to make things." said a teacher, Colin Kinney. "Many pupils can't communicate with other pupils but their parents talk proudly of their ability to use a computer or a smart phone."Instead of playing with other children, more and more children are choosing to stay indoors and quietly play on a tablet (平板电脑)on weekends and fter scriool. How can a child grow up to be a very good artist if he doesn't learn how to use a paintbrush and develop his painting skill? How can a child learn to make friends as he gets older if he doesn't learn to communicate with others at a young age?Digital technology can be used for good or bad. We can use a stone to either break a window or build a house. We shouldn′t blame the children. We should help them make right choices. It is certainly necessary for children to know how to use digital technology in today's world, but whatis more important, we should encourage them to develop social abilities which will do them good when they grow up.8. What's the worst problem that is mentioned in the first paragraph?A. Children can't make things themselves.B. Children make too many friends online.C. Children don't want to communicate with others.D. Children don't like helping Mum cook meals at home.9. According to Colin Kinney, which of the following is TRUE?A. Teachers don't notice that young pupils have few skills to make things.B. Many parents are very happy that their kids can use digital technology.C. Many teachers don't care if young pupils can play computers or tablets.D. Some parents are worried that their kids use digital technology too much.10. What do many young children choose to do on weekends and after school?A. To play on a tablet indoors.B. To paint with their paintbrushes.C. To play with other children.D. To make friends with other children.11. What does the underlined word "blame" mean in Chinese?A.表扬B.原谅C.评价D.责怪12. What does the writer mainly want to tell us?A. It's very important for children to have social skills.B. It's very helpful for children to do some housework.C. It's necessary for parents to learn to use digital technology.D. It's difficult for teachers to make right choices for their pupils.四、词汇检测(10分)1. His last public concert will be on in Shanghai in a (几个)of months.2. He has much (经验)as an engineer.3.

Maybe you can turn to Animal Flow.Created by a famous fitness coach Mike Fitch in 2015, Animal Flow is a fun way to exercise. You move your body on the ground as different animals do when you practise Animal Flow. You don't need any equipment（器材） for it, but it helps you become stronger.When practising Animal Flow, you get your body to move in different ways, such as walking like a duck and jumping like a frog. The movements look easy. In fact, they help you get a full-body workout. Take Crab Reach as an example. Start from sitting on the ground. Lift your hips（臀部）up off the ground and balance on one arm. As you rise up, try to extend（伸展） the other arm backward. Make sure your body forms a line from your shoulders to knees. The movement can make your tired body relaxed after you sit for long.Here are some tips to get Animal Flow started in the right way. Find a quiet place. Don't choose rocky areas or beaches because they make you feel tired quickly. Also, you'd better not wear shoes. It's good for you to improve balance. Warm up your wrists（手腕）. They hold the weight of your body in many Animal Flow movements. Remember to do some basic movements first if you're too fat, or you'll easily get hurt.Take your time and move slowly to get the most from Animal Flow.19. What can we learn about Animal Flow from the passage?A．It depends on equipment. B．A famous doctor created it.C．People practise it with animals. D．It needs practising on the ground.20. Which picture shows Crab Reach?A．B．C．D．21. What should people do to start Animal Flow?A．Lose weight before it. B．Find places like beaches.C．Practise without shoes. D．Protect the wrists with medicine22. Why does the writer write the passage?A．To tell the history of Animal Flow. B．To show how to practise Animal FlowC．To share the advantages of Animal Flow D．To encourage people to practise AnimalFlow.Su Qingwu, a post-90s girl from Wenzhou, east China's Zhejiang Province, has built a pavilion（亭子） in her garden by hand. It's a copy of a pavilion in the Palace Museum.As a photographer, Su often had chances to visit local handicraftsmen（手工艺人） and take photos when they were working. Slowly she became interested in traditional handicrafts and searched for information about them online. “It all began with a photo of a pav ilion in the Palace Museum I saw on the Internet. I fell in love with the colours and structure of it. Why don't I build one at home?” she said. Soon she began to bring the idea to life.Building a pavilion without glue or nails（钉子） wasn't that easy for Su. She started to learn the woodworking skills by reading books and watching videos. She also searched every corner of the town for the things she needed. It seemed easy at first, but it was a different story when she was building the pavilion. She had trouble making a drawing of the pavilion at the beginning. She kept trying and found her own way, but the mortise-and-tenon joint was a big headache for her. In order to solve the problem, she visited the Palace Museum in person, found the pavilion in the photo, and studied the mortise-and-tenon joint carefully. Finally, her pavilion was completed.It took Su 150 days to build her first pavilion. Later, she spent 200 days building a Tang-style pavilion. It is bigger and more difficult to build than the first one. She is now planning to create another copy of the pavilion in the Palace Museum in the near future. “These traditional handicrafts show the confidence in Chinese culture. I want to promote the Chinese traditional handicrafts through building more pa vilions, so more people can see them one day.” Su said.23. Why did Su build a pavilion at home?A．She liked traditional handicrafts. B．She liked taking photos in pavilions.C．She wanted to help handicraftsmen. D．She wanted to make her gardenbeautiful.24. What problems did she meet when building the pavilion?①She couldn't connect the parts of the pavilion together.②She couldn't afford the things for building the pavilion.③She didn't know where to learn the woodworking skills.④She didn't understand how to make a drawing of the pavilion.A．①③B．①④C．②④D．③④25. What does the underlined word “promote” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Mix. B．Notice. C．Check. D．Introduce.26. What's the best title for the passage?A．Speak for a Small Town B．A Young Artist of PhotosC．Move the Palace Museum Back Home D．A Confident Director of VideosKeisha invented a robot called Anisisbro. The robot could work in any environment and solve problems in creative ways. Her invention made her the Science Star of the year 2172. As a result, she got a chance of having a space travel to the Mars Life Research Base（基地） with the best astronauts Clara and Dominic.A week later, Keisha started her exciting journey to Mars. Anisisbro followed her. In the spaceship, she watched other planets and moons in the solar system through a screen. She was surprised at what she saw because she had never seen it before.One night, a message appeared on the screen:A An illness spread（传播; 蔓延） in the base on Mars, causing people to feel weak and difficult to breathe. We don't know what it is. You'd better return to your planet.“We can't just leave the people there to die!” shouted Dominic. "Perhaps when we get there, we'll know what to do. "“But is it right to take Keisha to that dangerous environment?” asked Clara.▲ , “Keisha sat up suddenly and said before Dominic answered,” We can send Anisisbro to the base. It can go into it without being hurt. "The robot, hearing its name, moved around and stopped next to Keisha, ready to do its job.After the spaceship landed on Mars, Keisha gave an order to Anisisbro, and then the robot hurried out of the spaceship and flew to the base.The three watched Anisisbro's progress through the screen. When it entered the base, they saw the people lying about, weak and tired. Anisisbro collected information and then sent it back to thespaceship. They looked at the information and found out the cause of the illness-Someone used too much radioactive pesticide（放射性杀虫剂） and it spread in the air of the base. Soon the robot discovered where the pesticide was from and cleared it. Within an hour, the people looked better“Well done,” said Clara to Keisha“Anisisbro really did,” said Keisha proudly. “Now I believe we can meet the people in the base!”27. Why could Keisha visit Mars?A．She became the Science Star B．She was the best astronautC．She knew the environment of Mars. D．She was good at solving problems. 28. What happened before she reached Mars?A．She got a serious illness B．The robot made a screen for her.C．A message came from her own planet. D．Something harmful was in the base 29. Which of the following can be put into ▲ in Paragraph 7?A．It's hard to protect them B．You don't understand meC．I don't want to leave them D．We'd better go back to our planet30. What made her journey to Mars successful?A．Helpful advice from the base B．The robot Anisisbro's great workC．Keisha's research on space travel D．Clara and Dominic's rich experience阅读以下材料，请从每小题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出符合各小题内容的选项，完成第1-4小题。

There are 2 where English is still not spoken，though it is the most widely known language．So，wouldn’t it be 3 if there was one language that could be understood by anyone anywhere in the world?Esperanto that was created in 1887 may be the world’s 4 truly international language．In fact，although 5 artificial(人造的) languages have been already created，only Esperanto has had much success．Its learners say that it is about four times 6 to learn than other languages．Spelling and pronunciation are both easy，too．For example，it does not have silent 7 like the“h”in“honest”．If you 8 a word，you can spell it without any difficulty．The grammar is also as simple as possible：only sixteen basic 9 ，no irregular verbs(不规则动词)，only six verb endings．In short，Esperanto should be attractive(有吸引力的) as a language to learn，10 there is a problem：how many people have met anyone who can really speak it? Anyway，we hope that some day one language can be mastered easily by anyone．1．A．need B．miss C．face D．touch2．A．offices B．schools C．cities D．places3．A．safe B．nice C．funny D．difficult4．A．first B．another C．last D．other5．A．little B．a little C．few D．a few6．A．better B．easier C．slower D．shorter7．A．marks B．parts C．words D．letters8．A．hear B．see C．watch D．notice9．A．subjects B．sentences C．rules D．lessons10．A．and B．but C．so D．because【阅读理解】AMany people like to travel by plane，but I don’t like it because an airport is usually tar from the city．You have to get early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it isoften late．You can’t open the windows．You can’t choose the food．Planes are fast，but they still take hours to go out the airport and into the city．I 1ike travelling by train．I think trains are safe．Train stations are usually in cities．When you are late for a train，you can catch another one．You can walk around in the trainand open the windows．You can see many interesting things on your way．I know it takes alittle more time．I also like cars．You can start your journey when you want to，and you don’t need to get to train station or bus stop．Also you can carry many things with you in a car．But sometimes there are too many cars on the road．1．Why do many people like to travel by plane?A．Because it’s fast．B．Because it’s safe．C．Because you can walk around in the plane．D．Because it’s cheap．2．Which is NOT the good thing about the train?A．It is safe．B．It takes a little more time．C．You can open the windows．D．You can walk around in the train．3．If you want to take a lot of things with you，what do you take to go out?A．A bus．B．A bike．C．A train．D．A car．4．What is the bad thing about the car?A．You needn’t go to a station．B．You can start your journey when you want to．C．There are too many cars on the road．D．You needn’t go to a bus stop．5．What does the writer think of the transportations?A．He thinks it takes a lot of time to go to and get out of the airport to take the plane．B．He 1ikes to take a train because it takes a little more time．C．He 1ikes to take a car because he has a car．D．He likes to take a plane because it’s fast．BWhere in the world can you take an hour's train ride, and pass a forest, a London street, and a burning building that never burns down? There's only one place, and that's Hollywood, in California. Those you see from the tourist train are film sets(布景)in the Universal Studios, one of the oldest and largest film companies in the USA.A visit to Universal Studios brings back memories of great days of Hollywood, the films and the stars. But they are only memories. Hollywood isn't quite the same as it used to be. Costs have gone up and film-makers are afraid to spend their money on expensive new ideas. Instead, they repeat old ones.The film industry(产业)is changing fast. Teenagers still go out to the cinema. The cinema is a good place to meet friends away from home. But older people mostly stay at home to watch TV plays which have become as important as expensive films. These "soap operas(肥皂剧) " show rich families living in beautiful homes and wearing beautiful clothes, but They cost little and the actors and actresses are nearly all middle-aged, like many of the people who watch them.However, more and more films are made outside Hollywood now. New York is the most important new center, but there are many others as well. Film-makers have realized that they don'tneed Hollywood any more. Modern cameras and real houses instead of expensively made copies in a studio. Other states(洲)，especially Florida and Texas, are working hard to take the film business away from California. They are offering better working environment and,lower cost.But Hollywood is fighting back. The state of California is trying hard to keep its best-known industry.6. From the passage, we know Universal Studios is .A. a very large townB. a busy London streetC. a famous film companyD. an old Hollywood film7. What can we learn about "soap operas" from the passage?A. They are popular with teenagers.B. They show poor people's life.C. They are less important than films.D. They are cheaper to make.8. The film industry in California isn't as successful as before because .A. young people don't go to the cinema any moreB. there's strong competition(竞争)from other statesC. film-makers are crazy about trying out new ideasD. Hollywood doesn't use film sets any more9. The passage mainly tells us .A. the film industry in the USAB. the importance of soap operasC. the old good days of HollywoodD. a visit to Universal Studios【阅读表达】In many western schools，sports day is a big event．Children take part in competitive(竞争性的)sports, trying to break school records and take the first place. Sports days, or sports meetings, are usually held in the warmer seasons, either at the beginning or the end of the school year. They are also called field days.Primary school sports days are fun．They usually have activities such as the egg and the spoon race and the sack race. Other events include the skipping race(跳绳)and the three—legged race. In middle and high schools，sports days include many of the common track and field events. They are more serious and competitive than primary school ones．Students’ parents a nd other relatives also come to the school on sports days．They watch children play. Many schools in the West have ’mothers and fathers’ races for parents to take part in!In the US，sports days have become too competitive to be good for students．Some parents put too much pressure on the children. Some schools don’t have ‘mothers and fathers’ races any more as there is much fighting and cheating1.What do children try to do when they take part in sports meetings?_____________________________________________________________2.What does the writer think about sports days?_____________________________________________________________3.Do you think sports days are good for students?

When I talk about the person who influenced me most, I must think of my best friend quickly.When I was in my university, one of my classmates sat beside me. His name is Wang Tao. He is my unforgettable friend in my life. He is good at study and handsome. Everyone knows that he is a genius of my university.He is kind-hearted and is always ready to help others. But he doesn't like others to praise him, because he thinks what he did is common. There is an old saying: A friend in need is a friend in deed. Wang Tao sets a good example in many parts in my life.I remembered that my maths was mediocre at that time, but he was excellent in solving maths questions. He often received high scores. Of course, I wished I could reach his level. Since we talked all day long, he was patient and polite to answer my maths questions. Slowly, I made great progress in maths. I passed the exam finally. Then we became friends naturally. And now, I still remember his strong will to study.We know that we live in a society, so we all need a lot of friends. There are two kinds of friends, good and bad. Bad friends may make our life failed, while good ones make our life successful. To me, Wang Tao is a very good friend. I learned so many advantages from him, and I changed more and more excellently.We separated three months ago. Now I miss him very much, and I hope that our friendship will continue to be just as strong after we graduate.19．The writer believes that an excellent friend ____.A．is a man who works on artB．can change his life slowlyC．can influence his idea about lifeD．must think of him quickly20．The underlined word "mediocre" most probably means "____".A．better B．not very goodC．the best D．very good21．In the fifth paragraph, the writer mainly suggests that we should ____.A．make good friends and learn from themB．have two kinds of friends, good and badC．make our best friends successfulD．make fewer bad friends22．What's the best title for the passage? ____A．My University Life B．An Unforgettable FriendC．How to Make Friends D．How to Learn Maths Well阅读短文，回答问题Picture the scene: It's midnight. You're very hungry after studying for a long time. Then you see a nice pie in the fridge. Will you eat it? It seems that you shouldn't, for many reasons, including its influence on your studies.Scientists have long known that eating late at night can make us put on weight. But now a new study has shown that late night eating can also have a bad influence on our brains—it might hurt our ability to learn new things and store memories."We believe that late night eating may have an influence on the parts of the brain that control learning and memory," Dawn Loh, PhD, a scientist at the University of California, Los Angeles, said, "We believe the timing of when we eat may be the main cause of the damaged memory. "For the study, the researchers did an experiment. They looked at two groups of mice with strict feeding plans. For two weeks, the mice were allowed to eat either during the time when they are usually the most active, or during the time when they usually sleep. The mice received the same amount of sleep and calories.Then the researchers tested the brains of the mice. In one test, the scientists tried to find out whether the mice had a good memory by putting the mice in a room connected to an electric shock for some time. The researchers noticed that, when the mice were put in the room again after 24 hours had gone by, those mice that ate when they should have been sleeping were less scared than those mice that ate during usual hours. It means that they didn't remember.So think twice before the midnight snack—it might be bad for more than your weight.23．Which one is the correct order of the experiment? ____①Researchers put the mice in the room again after 24 hours.②Researchers fed the mice in different times for two weeks.③Researchers watched which group of mice were more scared in the room.④Researchers put the mice in a room connected to an electric shock for some time.A．②④①③B．②④③①C．②①③④D．②①④③24．According to the passage, we can know that ____.A．the mice became smarter after the experimentB．they chose the mice that enjoyed eating late at nightC．the mice that ate during usual hours were less scaredD．they gave the mice the same amount of sleep and calories25．Which of the following could be the best title for the passage? ____A．Snacks make us fat B．Late eating hurts brainC．Never stay up late D．Keep away from snacks阅读短文，回答问题Michael sat on the ground outside the house, holding a four-leaf clover. Michael had believed that four-leaf clovers brought good luck, but he started questioning that kind of power.Michael was 11. Two months ago, his parents died in an accident. Luckily, Jill adopted him. Michael had a disliking for Jill. She always made him do boring housework. Michael didn't feel like a son to her at all. He often cried secretly.

While most of Asia celebrates the year of the rabbit, Vietnam celebrates the year of the cat. In the Chinese zodiac*, there are 12 animals, and the 4th animal is the rabbit; while in the Vietnamese zodiac, the 4th animal is the cat. Why did the cat substitute for the rabbit in Vietnam?Ancient storytellers said the Jade Emperor organized a race across a river for all the animals in the world. The first 12 to reach the other side would appear in the zodiac. In the Chinese story, the cat and the rat were riding across a river on an ox when the rat pushed the cat into the water. The rat won the race and that is why cats have been hunting rats ever since. But in the Vietnamese zodiac story, there isn’t a rabbit. The cat could swim and ended up arriving. The two countries have different origins* of zodiac.Quyen Di, a lecturer at UCLA, said the custom has to do with the landscape of Vietnam. “In the past, the Chinese lived in the savanna* area, while the Vietnamese lived in the lowland area. The people of the savanna like to live near the wilderness, and they chose the rabbit as an animal that lived in the wild fields. But the lowland people of Vietnam consider rabbits as animals that are used for food and chose the cat because they believe cats are friends living in their house.”34. The underlined words “substitute for” in paragraph 1 can be replaced by ________.A．take off B．take care of C．take the place of D．take up35. What can we learn from the Vietnamese zodiac story?A．The Jade Emperor liked the cat.B．The rabbit fell into the river in the zodiac race.C．The rat and the rabbit were friends in ancient times.D．The cat finished fourth by swimming across the river.36. Why did the Vietnamese choose the cat according to Quyen Di?A．Their living environment. B．Their language pronunciation.C．Their way of life. D．Their favorite animal.37. What is the main idea of the passage?A．To explain the history of the Chinese zodiac.B．To show ways of celebrating the year of the rabbit.C．To tell the traditions of Chinese culture.D．To introduce the origin of the year of the cat in Vietnam.Not all fat is created the same, according to several new studies. We all know there’s good cholesterol and bad cholesterol. It turns out there’s good and bad fat, too. Good fat is medically known as “brown fat”.Brown fat, mainly found in the neck and shoulders of newborns, has the ability to burn lots of calories, which can keep them warm. It makes up about 5 percent of a baby’s total weight. We lose most of our brown fat as we grow up. By the age of six, we have less than 5 percent of the brown fat we were born with; the fat we get over time is almost all white fat.Researchers now believe that some people keep brown fat until adulthood. Brown fat—the “good” kind can burn excess energy better to make heat. But white fat—considered the “bad” kind—is a way for your body to keep excess energy and take more calories than you use. It is bad for the body. And it doesn’t use much energy, is hard to burn off, and causes other health problems.Some studies suggest that taking a cold shower or an ice bath could let brown fat help your body burn more calories. Researchers have also found ways that may help people get brown fat without the need for cold. You build fat from the foods you eat. As brown fat is rich in iron, choosing food rich in iron can keep you healthy. Nutrition is very important for your health, especially if you want to increase brown fat.One main reason of the growth in illnesses is the increasing level of white fat. Though changing white fat into brown fat is helpful to increase brown fat, some scientists think they will learn how to keep brown fat as large and active throughout adulthood as they are like babies. We should try our best to keep brown fat forever instead of having to recreate it.38. Who has the most brown fat among the four persons?A．A teenage girl. B．A collegestudent.

When it was over, she went back to school and studied hard for that terrible thing known as “the Entrance”. Anne grew so quickly that one day Marilla was surprised to find that the girl was taller than her. Another difference was that she talked less.After months of studying, Anne went to town for the exams. When she returned to Green Gables, three weeks passed without the exam results appearing. Anne did not know what to do with herself! Then, one evening, Anne was sitting at her open window when she saw Diana come running up the hill with a newspaper in her hand.“Anne, you’ve passed,” she cried, “and you came first—you and Gilbert both.”“Well now, I always said it,” said Matthew, looking at the exam result list happily. “I knew you could beat them all easily.”The next three weeks were a busy time at Green Gables. Anne was getting ready to go to Queen’s, and there were a lot of things to do. Marilla even made Anne a beautiful green dress for special occasions. As she watched Anne packing her things, she began to cry.“I wish you could have stayed a little girl, Anne. You’ve grown up now, and you’re going away. This makes me a little sad.”“Marilla!” Anne sat down next to her. “I will always be your little Anne, who will love you and Matthew and dear Green Gables every day of her life.”Marilla put her arms around her girl and held her close, wishing that she need never let her go.The day finally came for Anne to go to town. She and Matthew drove in one fine September morning.The next day, Anne and the rest of the Avonlea students went to Queen’s Academy. Anne decided to try hard to win the Avery scholarship*. If she won the scholarship, she would be given money to attend Redmond College. Then, one day she would become a real graduate*! Imagine how proud Matthew would be then!That night, Anne found herself alone in her little bedroom. It was a boarding* house in town with a hard and cold street, instead of trees outside. She wanted to cry.—Adapted from Anne of Green Gables 42. What was Marilla surprised to find?A．Anne talked more. B．Anne was studyingC．Anne was shorter than her.
