Many people are worried about their weight. With proper planning, though, it is possible to keep normal weight during the holidays. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much. You don’t have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy.Here are some tips for preventing weight gain and maintaining physical fitness:Don’t skip meals.

Dishes that look oily or creamy(奶油的)may have large amount of fat. Choose lean meat(瘦肉). Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables.

Sometimes you will meet fair weather friends. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability .Above all else, I look for understanding in a friend. A good friend tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.At the same time, however, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favour, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.There is a fourth quality that makes a friend special. A special friend is someone with whom we can have fun. We would enjoy our lives, and we would enjoy our friendship. That is why I especially like friends who are fun to be with. A good friend likes the same things I like. We share experience and learn from each other. A good friend has a good sense of humour, too. He likes to laugh with me. That is how we share in the joy of being friends. And I know that he is looking for the same quality in me.When I meet someone who is reliable, honest and understanding, I know I’m lucky that I’ve found a friend! （358 words）61. What does the underlined word “reliability”(Para.4) mean in Chinese?A. 说谎B. 勇敢C. 胆小D. 可靠62.

If you have fair weather friends, _________.A. they will give you all that they have when you need helpB. you will be refused when you get into troubleC. you will become richD. you can be sure that you get real friends64.

This passage mainly discusses _________.A. the qualities of a friendB. where to choose friendsC. how to get along with friendsD. the importance of having a friendCButterflies(蝴蝶)are some of the most fascinating (迷人的) and beautiful insects in the world. Adult butterflies will live about two to four weeks. They use their senses of sight, touch, hearing, smell and taste to survive in the world, find food and mates, lay eggs in a proper place, migrate (迁移) and avoid hungry enemies.Butterflies have large compound eyes (复眼), which allow them to see in all directions without turning their heads. Like most insects, butterflies are very near-sighted, so they are more attracted to many flowers. Butterflies do not “see” colors such as red, green and yellow, but they can sense sunlight, which shows the direction in which the sun is shining, as well as ultraviolet light (紫外线), which is present on many flowers and guides butterflies to find honey sources.Butterflies have a very well-developed sense of smell, but it is not in their nose, since they don’t have one. Sense receptors (感受器) are in their antennae (触角), feet and many other parts of the body. They can help butterflies find their favorite flower honey, food and mates.Butterflies’ feet have sense organs that can taste the sugar in flower honey, letting the butterflies know if something is good to eat or not. Some females also carefully choose host plants by tasting to find proper places to lay their eggs. Adult butterflies feed their babies using a long tube. Butterflies force blood into the tube to straighten it out, allowing them to feed. Butterflies get all their food from this tube.Butterflies don’t have ears. Instead they “hear”sounds through their wings by sensing changes in sound vibrations (振动).Butterflies may possess senses we haven’t known about till today, because their body structure (结构) is very different and difficult to understand, when observed through our own human senses. （325 words）66. What can we learn from the second paragraph?A. Butterflies have good eyesight.B. Butterflies can see in all directions and don’t need to turn heads.C. Butterflies are sensitive (敏感的)to bright colors including red and yellow.D. Butterflies cannot sense the ultraviolet light.67. How do butterflies hear sounds?A. Using their feet to sense the vibration of thingsB. Using their ears to listen directlyC. Using their wings to sense the sound vibrationsD. Using their antennae to judge the sound68. Why do female adult butterflies carefully choose the host plants?A. To find high-qualified honey.B. To have a good place for living.C. To make it easier for them to hide from the enemies.D. To find a proper place for their eggs.69. What does the last paragraph imply?A. There’s a long way to understand butterflies wellB. Butterflies give great help to human beingsC. Butterflies are the most beautiful insects in the worldD. Butterflies possess more senses than humans70. The text mainly focuses on __________.A. butterflies’ living habitsB. butterflies’ beautyC. butterflies’ daily activitiesD. butterflies’ sensesPART FOUR WRITINGSECTION A （1 x 10 = 10）Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram / Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information for the passage.Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.Frederick M. Hess is the director of education policy study at the American Enterprise Institute, which is a nonprofit organization that does research on many public topics. He says that a long summer vacation doesn’t make sense in today’s world.Can American students afford to take a summer vacation? In a summer vacation, millions of children spend valuable time sending messages, watching TV, playing video games and doing shopping in the mall. They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.Summer vacation once made sense in the past when you didn’t need an education to get a good job. But now things have changed. For today’s students, academic skills are important to students’ future success, but such skills are affected in the summer time. Many other countries don’t give children an American style summer vacation. They offer no more than seven consecutive (连续的) weeks of vacation. Most American school districts offer up to thirteen weeks. To compete in the global marketplace, Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.Summer vacation also causes challenges for today’s families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stay-at-home Mum. Now, two thirds of American children live in households where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more a burden than a break. Someone must watch the kids.But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Researchers have found that disadvantaged students lose ground in the summer time.Any good suggestion? Yes. A longer school year does not have to be an invitation to hard boring work. Rather, it should allow time-pressed teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Students would have more time to devote to sports, music and the arts.To conclude, a long summer vacation can be a great thing. But in the 21st century, it may also be outdated. （313 words）SECTION B （2+2+3+3=10）Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.Everyone has got two personalities – the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control your behavior, but when you’re asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their positions. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don’t like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings. You’re quite shy and you aren’t very c onfident.If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive person. You worry a lot and you’re always easily upset. You’re very stubborn, but you aren’t very ambitious. You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.If you sleep curled up, you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you’re often defensive. You’re shy and you don’t normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You’re easily hurt.If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You’re usually careful and confident. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don’t get depressed. You always say what you think even if it makes other people angry.（253 words）81.

Complete the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.Internet shopping is a new way of shopping. You can shop for just aboutanything from your armchair. All you need is a computer which is linked to the Internet.People can shop for different kinds of products on the Internet. Physical products(产品) include items such as books, CDs, clothes and foods. You can also buy information products such as on-line news or magazine stories, or you can download computer software through the Internet. Services such as booking airline tickets, reserving(预订) hotels or renting cars are also available on the Internet. You can also go shopping on the Internet for entertainment services such as on-line games or e-mail “chats”.To find something on the Internet, people often use powerful computer tools called “search engines”. You can search for a type of product, such as sports shoes, or a brand name, such as Nike. The search engine will give you a list of websites where you can find these products. These websites may be specialist shops such as a Nike shop, or they may be general stores, called malls, which sell a variety of goods.The main disadvantage of Internet shopping is that you can not actually see the products you are buying or check their quality. Also, many people enjoy shopping in the city and miss the opportunity to talk to friends. Some people are worried about paying for goods using credit cards(信用卡), so Internet companies are now finding ways to make on-line payment safe.Internet shopping is sure to become more and more popular in the years ahead. It promises to change the way we buy all kinds of things ---- from tonight’s dinner to a new car.71 _____________Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.Many everyday American expressions are based on colors.Red is a hot color. Americans often use it to express heat. They may say they are red hot about something unfair. When they are red hot，they are very angry about something.People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good health．Theexpression was first used in America at the beginning of the 20th century. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.Blue is a cool color. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite(相反的) of red hot music. Blues is slow and sad. Someone who is blue is very sad.The color green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural color for humans. A person who has a sick feeling stomach may say she feels a little green. A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green.People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day. The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day. Blackouts were coming during World War II.81.
