Life is like potato salad; when it’s shared it becomes a picnic.
When my three children were young, my husband，Roy ，and I were very 31 , even on weekends.
“Can we go on a picnic, Mom?” my six-year-old daughter, Becky begged（祈求） . “Please.”
I had said no so many times in the 32 months, and I decided the usual Saturday morning chores could wait. To her 33 , I agreed.
I prepared a few sandwiches and 34 a cooler with ice and drinks and called Roy 35 . My eleven-year-old twin sons put the cooler and the picnic basket in the trunk and off we went to spend some 36 time together as a family.
About the time I got the lunch spread out(铺开) on the 37__, Roy arrived just 38 .
That was one of the happiest meals we ever shared together. The meal was filled with laughter. We felt a closeness that had been hidden by work and school 39 for so many months. Roy and the boys skipped rocks into the lake. Becky fed the ducks and I sat quietly on the picnic table, 40 God for blessing me with such a wonderful family.
That night as our 41 went to bed, I kissed their cheeks and realized what a wonderful life I had.
As I walked out of the room I realized that even the busiest 42 could become a picnic when it’s shared with the ones you love.
Even though the kids have now grown up and 43 from home, I can still remember how I felt that day while sitting at the picnic table.
Maybe today would be a good time to 44 potato salad, call all of my grown kids, feed some hungry ducks and skipped a few rocks into the lake. Since life is like
potato salad, let’s make it a 45 .

六．阅读理解（共15小题，计30分）。

第一节，阅读下面的短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。

A
When my son, Mark, was in the third grade, he saved all his pocket money for over three months to buy holiday presents. The third Saturday in December Mark said he had made his list and had twenty dollars in his pocket.
I drove him to a nearby supermarket. Mark picked up a hand basket and went in while I wailed and watched in the car. It took Mark over 45 minutes to choose his presents. Finally he came to the checkout counter (交款处) and reached into his pocket for his money. It was not there! There was a hole in his pocket, but no money. Mark stood there holding his basket, tears falling down his face.
Then a surprising thing happened. A woman came up to Mark and took him in her arms. "You would help me a lot if you let me pay for you," said the woman. "It would be the most wonderful gift you could give me. I only ask that one day you will pass it on. When you grow up, I would like you to find someone you can help. When you help others, I know you will feel as good about it as I do now."
Mark took the money, dried his tears and ran back to the checkout counter as fast as he could. That year we all enjoyed our gifts almost as much as Mark enjoyed giving them to us.
I would like to say "thank you" to that very kind woman, and tell her that four years later, Mark went house to house collecting blankets (毯子) and clothes for the homeless people in the fire. And I want to promise her that Mark will never forget to keep passing it on.
46. When did the story probably happen?
A. On Christmas Day.
B. Before Christmas Day.
C. On New Year’s Day.

D. with his friends
48. What happened to Mark in the supermarket?
A. His gifts were stolen.
B. He broke his basket.
C. He lost his money.
D. He lost his way.
49. Why did the writer want to say "thank you" to the woman?
A. Because she bought Mark a nice present.
B. Because she always paid money for others.
C. Because she collected clothes for the homeless.
D. Because she taught Mark to help people in need.
50. What’s the best title f or this passage?
A. A big supermarket
B. A kind woman
C. A happy family
D. A wonderful gift
B
Air is a colorless, tasteless and invisible gas that is around us. An “empty” drinking glass and a n “empty” room, in fact, are not really empty. Each is filled with air. When the glass is filled with water, the water pushes the air out of the glass.
Air, as gas, has no definite shape, but because it is matter, it takes up space and it has weight. It is easy to show that air is something that takes up space. Stuff a piece of dry cloth into the bottom of a glass so that it will not fall out when the glass is turned upside down. Push the upside-down glass, holding straight up and down, into a jar of water till the glass is completely covered. When the glass is taken out of the water, the cloth is still dry. The air inside the glass shows that it takes up space and keeps the water from coming in.
51. Why air has no definite shape? Because ________.
A. it’s a mixture
B. it’s gas
C. it is matter
D. it is
nothing
52. Since air is matter, it has ________.
A. neither shape nor room C. either shape or weight
B. both room and shape as well D. both room and weight
53. The underlined word “stuff” means _________.
A. to take away
B. to fill with
C. to cover
D. to cut off
54. The writer tells us that _________.
A. the experiment must be carried out in the space
B. this kind of experiments must be done in the lab
C. the experiment is made in the room
D. this kind of experiments can only be done in the open
air
55. Which of the following pictures gives us the correct result of the experiment? (W=water, A=air, C=cloth)
A.
B. C.
D.

Hello, boys and girls. This morning, I’ going to say something about how to relax ourselves.
In today’s fa st world, every one of us may have a little stress, sometimes even too much. It is important for us to understand it and deal with it in a right way. Now, everybody has got a piece of paper , I would like you to listen carefully and put a tick in the small square before the words or the sentences you hear. Are you ready? OK, let’s begin.
When you are nervous, angry or sad, you may try physical activities, such as walking, running, swimming and taking showers. Tennis, table tennis, badminton, basketball and football are also some of the activities you may try. Physical exercise will take away your worries and help you relax. Taking care of yourself is also very important to you. Because if you can’t sleep well or eat well, you will be stressed out as well. If it happens, please go to the doctor’s and ask him for some advice. If you don’t feel well, go ahead and cry, because a good cry can help you relax. It might even keep a headache or other kinds of worry and stress
away from you. Have you finished?

One possible version:
Saturday, March14th
I took part in the “Civilized Citizen”activity with my classmates today. We
got together at the school gate at 8:30a.m.and left for the People’s Park. On the
way to the park, we found some people break the traffic rules. For example, two men went across the street when the traffic lights were red. In the park, people were having fun. But a few children were climbing the trees or drawing pictures on the walls. Many people were talking loudly in public. And on the ground, too much litter
had been thrown here and there.
To change this situation, we began to pick up the litter and throw it into the dustbin, clean the walls, and plant trees. And then we told the children that climbing trees was dangerous and bad for the trees. Also, we said politely to some people, “Would you mind keeping your voice down and enjoy the quiet of the park?” After hearing our words, those people all realized their mistakes and corrected them immediately. At that moment, we felt excited and proud.
Environment is rather important to all of us. Though our today’s activity can’t totally solve the problem of the environment, I believe we can make people understand
that even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. Let’s work together to make the world a better place to live in!
