Less than 10 percent choose to stay in the nursing home while most live at home. Loneliness and shortage of care are the major problems facing the stay-at-home seniors."After my mother passed away; I struggled to take good care of my father;" said Zhou; an office worker.Those who have retired parents agree that their parents spend a boring and lonely day at home; watching TV all day and filling their stomach with food. The situation becomes worse in winter when elders are unable to go out due to the cold.However; the cost of such nursing homes is different from person to person but stands at around 2;000 yuan $290. Another problem is the shortage of facilities 设施. Even if two seniors share a room in the nursing home; the city still lacks缺少 at least 100;000 such rooms.24.

One year; I hada student; John; who entered my class when he was a junior 三年级学生. John changed to our school from Greece; and seemed to be interested in athletics; so I encouraged him to join our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before; I did believe that he could do well in any event; and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him. He accepted the offer; and began to work hard at every practice.About a month later; I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player; winning various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking; “John; I really appreciate that you came out for the track team; but why didn’t you play tennis instead It seems that would interest you a lot more; since you’re so good at it.”John answered; “Well; I like tennis; but you told me that you believed in me; and that you thought I could do well in track; so I wanted to try it for that rea-son.”From then on; I often remember my student’s re-ply. I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down to share somewhere with more teachers. No matter how critical 不满的 students can be of them-selves; I’ve found that a simple “I trust that you can do it” can go a long way27.

Two hundred years ago; you were old at 35. That was the average life then. At the turn of this century; as medical knowledge advanced; the average life span长度 increased to 45.

Today; a healthy 70-year-old is looking forward to many more active years.So; how old is old The answer is one you’ve heard many times; from all sorts of people. “You are as old or young as you feel” The calendar日历simply tells you how many years you have lived. 32 .Once an unknown au thor wrote ;“ 33 .

AHere are some pet-friendly universities in the UK and US.University of IllinoisStudents are allowed up to two pets in each apartment, as well as a fish tank of no more than 50 gallons.To keep a pet, you will need to get approval from the Family & Graduate housing department at the University of Illinois. You will have to provide proof that your pet is up to date with its vaccinations(疫苗), and pay a monthly US$30 pet fee, which is non-refundable(不可退款的).Your pet can’t be left for extended periods of time, and if there’s evidence that you’ve left it alone due to vacation or illness, the university may remove it.Harvard UniversityWith as many as 12 pet-friendly apartments, Harvard is a very pet-friendly university. It allows students to have fish in a tank of no more than 50 gallons, except for Harvard’s Cronkhite Graduate Center.In Harvard’s pet-friendly apartments, you’re allowed: one cat or one dog, which can’t be over 40 pounds when fully grown. At most, two pet birds.University of British Columbia Students can take advantage of the university’s B．A．R. K program, which uses the calming power of therapy dogs to help them.B．A．R. K started at the University of British Columbia, after an assistant professor called Dr. John-Tyler Binfet noticed that he couldn’t walk across campus without students running over to play with his dog, Frances. The students told him they were homesick and missed their pets, which encouraged Binfet to establish B．A．R. K as a way of fighting their loneliness.University of OxfordThe University of Oxford is famous for its resident pets, who happily wander around college grounds. Many Oxford colleges have their own tortoise and take part in the annual Corpus Christi tortoise race.Although you are not allowed to keep your own pet as a student, several Oxford colleges hold dog petting and walking therapy sessions.1．What is one of the rules for keeping pets at the University of Illinois?A．Pet keepers should pay a monthly US$ 30 pet fee which will be returned.B．Pets can’t be left alone in the apartments due to vacation or illness.C．Students have to keep fish in a fish tank of no more than 20 gallons.D．The cat or dog can’t be over 40 pounds when fully grown.2．Why did Dr. John-Tyler Binfet start B．A．R.

B．University of Oxford.C．University of Illinois. D．University of British Columbia.BA survey by the American Psychological Association shows that one in ten adults reads online news at least once an hour. A lot has been written about the mental health influence from news addiction, and in particular from reading negative reports. Just like junk food, “junk” news can be bad for our health.In recent years, things have been getting increasingly more negative. A study of the content of New Zealand’s largest newspaper showed that while in 1973 the average number of stories about death on the front page was 0.75, by 2013 it was 4.1(and no, there weren’t five times more people dying).What’s more, online news, and the stories we read on mobile phones in particular, tend to be even more negative than print. A 2019 study of 50 U.S. newspapers showed that mobile versions of newspapers report three times more stories about disasters and accidents than paper ones.Such negative reports lead people to believe that things are worse than they really are. They can lead to stress, worry and lower spirits.Experiments also suggest that loneliness and poor relationships have been connected with reading negative reports. After reading negative reports, people are less likely to help others. Even worse, when we check news on smart phones, we may “phub” our loved ones, which leads to lower relationship satisfaction.Negative reports attract our attention far more than positive ones. That’s a global happening. I hope, however, that if we realize that negative news is spoiling our moods, we might all be more willing to change. 4．Why is “junk food” mentioned in the first paragraph?A．To entertain readers.B．To introduce the topic.C．To make an advertisement.D．To keep readers away from it.5．What can we learn about the study in Paragraph 2?A．The death rate in New Zealand is very high.B．Print newspapers have become less popular.C．Stories about death have become less popular.D．Negative reporting has been increasing over years. 6．What may negative reports lead people to do?A．Live a hopeful life.B．Become more careful.C．Become less likely to help others.D．Pay more attention to their physical health.7．What does the underlined word “phub” in Paragraph 5 mean?A．Ignore B．Hate C．Laugh at D．Care about8．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．A Survey on News Reading Habits B．Negative Effects of Mobile PhonesC．Is Online News Better Than Print?D．Is Junk News a Danger to Health?CThere was once a boy called Mario who loved to have lots of friends at school. However, he wasn’t sure whether or not his classmates were his true friends, so he asked his grandpa. The old man answered, “I have just exactly what you need; it’s in the attic (阁楼). Wait here for a minute.”Grandpa left, soon returning as though carrying something in his hand, but Mario could see nothing there. “Take it. It’s a very special chair. Because it’s invisible (无形的) it’s rather difficult to sit on, but if you take it to school and you manage to sit on it, you’ll be able to tell who your true friends are.”Mario took the strange invisible chair and went to school. At break time he asked everyone to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair. “Nobody move. You’re about to see something amazing,” Mario said.Then Mario tried sitting on the chair. He missed and fell straight onto his backside. Everyone had a pretty good laugh. Mario wouldn’t be beaten. He kept trying to sit on the magic chair, and kept falling to theground... until, suddenly, he tried again and didn’t fall. This time he sat, hovering (悬停) in mid-air.Looking around, Mario saw George, Lucas, and Diana — three of his best friends — holding him up, so he wouldn’t fall. At the same time, many others he had thought of as friends were doing nothing but make fun of him, enjoying each and every fall.Leaving with his three friends, Mario explained to them how his grandpa had so cleverly thought of such a good idea. Now he knows that those who take joy in our misfortunes (不幸) when we are in difficulty are not our true friends.9．What did Mario’s grandpa take from the attic?A．An invisible chair.B．An old chair.C．A real chair.D．Nothing.10．Why did Mario’s grandpa give him the invisible chair?A．To see whether Mario could sit on it. B．To test who were Mario’s true friends.C．To let Mario have fun with his classmates.D．To test whether Mario was popular at school. 11．How was Mario able to hover in mid-air?A．He saw the invisible chair suddenly. B．He managed to sit on the chair finally.C．His friends held him up with their hands. D．His classmates gave him a chair to sit on.12．What does the story tell us?A．Never laugh at our friends. B．True friends can help us do magic.C．True friends are those who care for us. D．Having too many good friends isn’t a good thing.DSure, it’s good to get along well with your teacher because it makes the time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes, it’s good to get along well with your teacher because, in general, it’s smart to learn how to get along well with the different types of people you’ll meet throughout your life.In fact, kids who get along well with their teachers not only learn more, but they’re more comfortable with asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier for them to understand new materials and makes them do their best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as problems with learning or school issues (问题).Here is a question：What if you don’t get along with your teachers? In fact, teachers want to get along well with you and enjoy seeing you learn. But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes (个性冲突), which can happen between any two people. If you show your teacher that you want to make the situation better, he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen. By dealing with a problem like this, you learn something about how to get along with people who are different from you.However if a certain teacher isn’t your favorite, you can still have a successful relationship with him or her especially if you fulfill (履行) your basic responsibilities as a student.Here are some of those responsibilities (责任)：Attend class ready to learn.Be prepared for class with the right stationery, books, and completed assignments (作业).Listen when your teacher is talking.Do your best, whether it’s a classroom assignment, homework, or a test.13．According to the passage, what will happen to you when getting along well with your teachers ?A．We will have no problems with studyB．We will get a better seat in the classroomC．We will get the best scores in the examsD．We will have more pleasant time in the classroom14．What does the underlined word “that” refers to in the fourth paragraph?A．The happy time you have in the classroomB．Getting along very well with classmatesC．A better relationship between you and your teacherD．The disappearance of personality differences15．What does the passage mainly talk about?A．The importance of friendship in schools.B．The importance of a good relationship with your teachers.C．Studying skills for students.D．Useful skills to get along well with your teachers.16．As a student, what will you do if you don’t like a certain teacher ?A．You fulfill (履行) your basic responsibilities as a studentB．You are thought of as a good studentC．You know some basic social skillsD．You are easygoing and helpful第二节七选五(每小题1分，共5分，根据短文内容，选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

In late September or early October, falling fruits as hard as baseballs threaten the skulls (头骨) of you, your children, your neighbors and those that reside next door to them. Umbrellas in the yard are a must while dining in early August, and as for me, I wear my bike helmet while working in the garden.The black walnut also releases a chemical substance through its roots as a competitive strategy. It’s poisonous to several common plants. There have been many new plant varieties tha t I brought home with hopes that maybe the black walnut would accept them, but they failed toflourish.What does work are native plants that naturally grow in the area. Native plants are important to have around since they provide beneficial pollinators (传粉者) like birds, bees and butterflies with seeds and contribute to a healthy and biodiverse environment. Native plants for this area are generally easy to grow, so they experience less stress.Have I thought of getting rid of this giant pain in my tiny backyard? Yes, however, getting rid of this tree standing at 50 feet with an 87-inch trunk is next to impossible. It’s also protected under the law. Rightfully so. Trees are important to the urban forest and for all of those that inhabit it.Sometimes I think about my life without the black walnut. I can’t imagine a spring without the birds who arrive every year and loudly sing their songs before dawn. I’d miss falling asleep on lazy weekend afternoons as I look up into its leaves.Every spring, I wonder what the season holds: What are the chances of being knocked unconscious while barbecuing? Like any good relationship, I’ll never be pleased. I’m stuck with this tree, so I’ll listen to its needs and give it the space it requires. In return, my walnut offers a habitat for wildlife and a reminder.19．Why does the author wear a bike helmet while working in the garden?A. To protect the injured skull.B. To prevent herself from sunburn.C. To avoid being hit by the nuts.D. To reduce the chance of getting bitten by bees.20．What is the tree’s survival strategy?A. It attracts beneficial pollinators.B. It lets out poison to drive away pests.C. It produces a chemical fatal to some plants.D. It competes for nutrition with similar species.21．Which of the following DOESN’T account for the author’s love-hate relationship with the tree?A. The volume of its fruits may bring inconvenience.B. The tree outcompetes the native plants in the garden.C. The tree is home to numerous birds and other creatures.D. The presence of the tree takes up much space of the garden.22．The author most probably got a reminder from the tree that ________.A. it’s better to give than to takeB. trees and plants have their own ways to flourishC. even a good relationship is not always trouble-freeD. acceptance, instead of resistance, is the better way to beCIt was raining like nothing before when Ehdaa Bujeldain, an English teacher living with her family in the mountains of Derna in eastern Libya , heard a loud noise that sounded like an explosion (爆炸). Later they learned that a dam (大坝) in Derna had broken down under the pressure of running water. For the next four days, they had no power or internet, and it was only recently that they started to fully understand of the damage caused by the floods.“Half of the city has been destroyed. My mom’s relatives, my friends, my coworkers ——they are all gone. Now we, the survivors, are just ghost s in shells,” says Bujeldain, whose sadness can be easily told from her blank expression.Five days have passed since the terrible flooding in Derna, Libya’s Red Crescent organization estimated that 11,300 people have died, while the city’s mayor believes the number of deaths could be as high as 20,000.Derna is a coastal city with a seasonal river called the Wadi Derna. Despite the abnormally heavy rain, people living near the river had little warning before the floodwaters came rushing in on that terrible morning. United Nations aid chief Martin Griffiths described the scale of the flood as “appalling” (令人惊骇的) and blamed the flood partly on sudden climate change.Now international aid teams are arriving in Derna, but they face challenges due to damaged roads, lack of access to power, water, and fuel. Tarhoni, doctor of the rescue team, warns that the most difficult weeks lie ahead. “One disaster is done and there is another to come,” he says. “The thousands and thousands of people who lost everything these people now need comfort, they need company, t hey need psychological support.”23．What do we know about Bujeldain’s family from paragraph 1?A. The explosion they heard led to the destruction of the dam.B. Bujeldain saved her family from the floods with her bravery.C. Bujeldain immediately recognized the outbreak of the floods.D. For several days, they didn’t fully realize the seriousness of the floods.24．What does Bujeldain mean by saying they are “just ghosts in shells” in paragraph 2?A. They run out of energy and are very tired.B. They feel lucky as they are safe and sound.C. They are completely saddened and shocked.D. They are sorry for the loss of their homeland.25．According to the passage, which of the following does NOT contribute to the loss of lives?A. The absence of warning.B. The extraordinary rainfall.C. Unexpected climate change.D. The damage to environment.26．What might be the main focus of international aid efforts in Derna?A. Addressing mental problems.B. Providing immediate medical care.C. Conducting climate change research.D. Rebuilding roads and access to resources.DBy the end of the century, if not sooner, the world’s oceans will be bluer and greener thanks to a warming climate, according to a new study.At the heart of the phenomenon lie tiny microorganisms (微生物) in the ocean called phytoplankton. Because of the way light reflects off the organisms, these phytoplankton create colorful patterns at the ocean surface. Ocean color varies from green to blue, depending on the type and concentration of phytoplankton. Climate change will fuel the growth of phytoplankton in some areas, while reducing it in other spots, leading to changes in the ocean’s appearance.Phytoplankton live at the ocean surface, where they pull carbon dioxide into the ocean while giving off oxygen. When these organisms die, they bury carbon in the deep ocean, an important process that helps to regulate (调控) the global climate. But phytoplankton are vulnerable to the ocean’s warming trend. Warming changes key characteristics of the ocean and can affect phytoplankton growth, since they need not only sunlight and carbon dioxide to grow, but also nutrients.Stephanie Dutkiewicz, a scientist in MIT’s Center for Global Change Science, built a climate model that projects changes to the oceans throughout the century. In a world that warms up by 3C, it found that multiple changes to the color of the oceans would occur. The model projectsthat currently blue areas with little phytoplankton could become even bluer. But in some waters, such as those of the Arctic, a warming will make conditions more suitable for phytoplankton, and these areas will turn greener. “Not only are the quantities of phytoplankton in the ocean changing.” she said, “but the type of phytoplankton is changing.”And why does that matter? Phytoplankton are the base of the food web. If certain kinds begin to disappear from the ocean, Dutkiewicz said, “it will change the type of fish that will be able to live on.” Those kinds of changes could affect the food chain.Whatever color changes the ocean experiences in the coming future will probably be too gradual and unnoticeable, but they could mean significant changes. “It’ll be a while before we can statistically show that the changes are happe ning because of climate change,” Dutkiewicz said, “but the change in the color of the ocean will be one of the early warning signals that we really have changed our planet.”27．What are the first two paragraphs mainly about?A. The cause of the changes in ocean color.B. The various patterns at the ocean surface.C. The way light reflects off marine organisms.D. The efforts to fuel the growth of phytoplankton.28．What does the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. beneficialB. sensitiveC. significantD. unnoticeable 29．What can we learn from the passage?A. Dutkiewicz’s model aims to project phytoplankton changes.B. Phytoplankton have been used to control global climate.C. Phytoplankton play a declining role in the ecosystem.D. Oceans with more phytoplankton may appear greener.30．What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To explain the effects of climate change on oceans.B. To assess the consequences of ocean color changes.C. To introduce a new method to study phytoplankton.D. To analyze the organization of the ocean food chain.The Chubby Diaries creator is part of a community of larger-bodied travelers who are showing the world that they can do anything. Following them helps because you can be like, “Oh, this place works with larger bodies.” 31 .Second plane seats and belt extendersSouthwest is one of the few airlines to offer plus-size passengers a free second seat. To ensure the extra space, Southwest recommends booking both seats beforehand, then making a request to get your money back. 32 Southwest states: “The armrest is t he definitive gauge (测量仪) for a customer of size. If you’re unable to lower both armrests, you need a second seat.” Even if your frame fits between the lowered arms, you may still need a seat-belt extender.33 .Finding size nclusive tripsFor Natalie Robinson, ziplining (压缩) in Costa Rica determined her bucket list. “Literally for the last 10 years, that’s all I talked about,” said the co-owner of Fat Girls Travel. 34 . Her fortunes changed completely on an August trip to Costa Rica, when a friend found an outfitter without weight restrictions. The guide said Robinson could dash through the rainforest as long as she could reach the starting point high in the tree tops.35When researching a trip, ask about weight restrictions as well as the availability of equipment that can accommodate your size. If you have concerns, bring your own equipment. Plus-size travelers emphasize the importance of being self-sufficient. Finding special clothes and equipment can be challenging in unfamiliar destinations.A. Pack your own equipmentB. Find supportive travel groups and tripsC. Their extra efforts are paying off as they discover how to travel comfortably andconfidentlyD. Ziplining provides much convenience for those fat girlsE. Many airlines use the armrests to determine whether a passenger requires more spaceF. Air-lines provide this extra piece of equipment free, and you can request it at the time ofboardingG. But ziplining generally has a weight limit, so she hadn’t been able to do itYou might say I found marathoning, step by step. Or perhaps it found me. I was 36 an athlete growing up. In fact, I have a hard time 37 that term to myself even today.It started when I joined a group of women in my neighborhood for a daily three-mile walk. At first it was 38 . But soon, my body adjusted and I wanted 39 . Before long, I was running 5 miles. Then I set a goal to run a half marathon. And I did complete the Covered Bridges Half Marathon. I thought, “Now what?” I started to 40 a marathon.It so happened that I 41 a meeting one night and listened to the speaker and coach, Rick Muhr, and was so 42 by his words. I told him that I had signed up for the Ocean State Marathon, just a week away, and that I really didn’t believe I could 43 . Rick locked eyes with me and said, “Trish, you’ve done enough training. You’ll finish!”I never had someone 44 me like that, let alone a real, live coach. He gave me the45 I needed. I set out to run my 46 marathon and completed it in 4:25:00. Little did I know that this would be the beginning of nearly a decade of marathon and distance running. Running a marathon isn’t for everybody. But it is for anybody, anybody who wants to47 the unreachable and to take that 48 into the rest of their life. When you cross the finish line you may never have a 49 picture of what you are made of and capable of accomplishing.

But there is one question that has millions of correct answers. That question is “What’s your name” Everyone gives a different answer, but everyone is correct.Have you ever wondered about people’s names Where do they come from What do they meanPeople’s first names, or given names, are chosen by their parents. Sometimes the name of a grandparent or other member of the family is used. Some parents choose the name of a well-known person. A boy could be named George Washington Smith; a girl could be named Helen Keller Jones.Some people give their children names that mean good things. Clara means “bright”; Beatrice means “one who gives happiness”; Donald means “world ruler”; Leonard means “as brave as a lion”.The earliest last names, or surnames, were taken from place names.A family with the name Brook or Brooks probably lived near brook 小溪; someone who was called Longstreet probably lived on a long, paved road. The Greenwood family lived in or near a leafy forest.Other early surnames came from people’s occupations. The most common occupational name is Smith, which means a person who makes things with iron or other metals. In the past, smiths were very important workers in every town and village. Some other occupational names are: Carter— a person who owned or drove a cart; Potter—a person who made pots and pans.The ancestors of the Baker family probably baked bread for their neighbors in their native village. The Carpenter’s great-great-great-grandfather probably built houses and furniture.Sometimes people were known for the color of their hair or skin, or their size, or their special abilities. When there were two men who were named John in the same village, the John with the gray hair probably became John Gray. Or the John was very tall could call himself John Tallman. John Fish was probably an excellent swimmer and John Lightfoot was probably a fast runner or a good dancer.Some family names were made by adding something to the father’s name. English-speaking people added–s or –son. The Johnsons are descendants of John; the Roberts family’s ancestor was Robert. Irish and Scottish people added Mac or Mc or O. Perhaps all of the MacDonnells and the McDonnells and the O’Donnells are descendants of the same Donnell.36. Which of the following aspects do the surnames in the passage NOTcover A. Places where people lived. B. People’s characters.C. Talents that peopl e possessed.D. People’s occupations.37. According to the passage, the ancestors of the Potter family most probably _______.A. owned or drove a cartB. made things with metalsC. made kitchen tools or containersD. built houses and furniture38. Suppose and English couple whose ancestors lived near a leafy forest wanted their new-born son to become a world leader, the baby might be named _______.A. Beatrice SmithB. Leonard CarterC. George LongstreetD. Donald GreenwoodBSalvador Dali 1904-1989 was one of the most popular of modern artists.

There is also L’Enigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper, objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist’s showman qualities.The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is metwith the beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities无限. “From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras,” explains the Pompidou Centre.The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration合作 with the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg.39.

He was a rural mail carrier, and on Saturdays he would ask me to go with him. Driving through the countryside was always an adventure: There were animals to see, people to visit, and chocolate cookies if you knew where to stop, and Dad did.In the spring, Dad delivered boxes full of baby chickens, and when I was a boy it was such a fun to stick your finger through one of theholes of the boxes and let the baby birds peck on your fingers.On Dad's final day of work, it took him well into the evening to complete his rounds because at least one member from each family was waiting at their mailbox to thank him for his friendship and his years of service. "Two hundred and nineteen mailboxes on my route." he used to say, "and a story at every one." One lady had no mailbox, so Dad took the mail in to her every day because she was nearly blind. Once inside, he read her mail and helped her pay her bills.Mailboxes were sometimes used for things other than mail. One note left in a mailbox read. "Nat, take these eggs to Marian; she's baking a cake and doesn't have any eggs." Mailboxes might be buried in the snow, or broken, or lying on the groom, but the mail was always delivered. On cold days Dad might find one of his customers waiting for him with a cup of hot chocolate. A young wrote letters but had no stamps, so she left a few buttons on the envelope in the mailbox; Dad paid for the stamps. One businessman used to leave large amounts of cash in his mailbox for Dad to take to the bank. Once, the amount came to $32,000.A dozen years ago, when I traveled back to my hometown on the sad occasion of Dad’s dea th, the mailboxes along the way reminded me of some of his stories. I thought I knew them all, but that wasn't the case.As I drove home, I noticed two lamp poles, one on each side of the street. When my dad was around, those poles supported wooden boxes about four feet off the ground. One box was painted green and the other was red, and each had a long narrow hole at the top with white lettering: SANTA CLAUS, NORTH POLE. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those holes.I made a turn at the comer and drove past the post office and across the railroad tracks to our house. Mom and I were sitting at the kitchen table when I heard footsteps. There, at the door, stood Frank Townsend, Dad's postmaster and great friend for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.At one point Frank looked at me with tears in his eyes. "What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas" he asked."The letters"'I guess you never knew.""Knew what""Remember, when you were a kid and you used to put your letters to Santa in those green and red boxes on Main Street It was your dad who answered all those letters every year."I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasn’t hard for me to imagine Dad sitting at the old table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several ofthe people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families.For me, just knowing that story about my father was the gift ofa lifetime.46. It can be inferred推断 from the passage that the writer regarded his travels with Dad as __________.A. great chances to help other peopleB. happy occasions to play with baby chickensC. exciting experience with a lot of funD. good opportunities to enjoy chocolate cookies47.

At that time, the colonies were fighting for independence from Britain. Yet the books that American children used in school all came from Britain. The books were all about British people and British places. Webster wanted books that would mean more to American children. So he wrote three books that used American examples—a grammar book, a spelling book, and a reader. These books were very popular, and millions of them were sold.Webster was interested in changing the spellings of words. He wanted words to be spelled the way they were pronounced. For example, he thought the word "head" should be spelled “hed”, and the word“laugh” should be spelled “laf”. People liked Webster’s suggestions.However, few words were actually changed. One group of words that were changed were words in which an unpronounced “u” followed an “o”. That is why Americans write “color” and “labor”, and the British write “colour” and “labour”.With the money he made from his books, Webster was able to write. It was the first American English dictionary, published in 1828.Webster's dictionary had over 70,000 words and gave the meaning and origin of each. To this day, Webster’s work is the example that most dictionaries of American English follow.16．What was Noah Webster when he was young?A．A writer.B．A teacher.C．A painter.D．A reporter.17．Why did Webster decide to write books?A．Because he wanted to earn more money.B．Because he wasn’t satisfied with the books he used.C．Because there were not enough books in the market.D．Because he had to borrow books from Britain when he was a student.18．What can we learn from paragraph 3?A．Webster spoke English in a different way.B．American people didn't like speaking English.C．Webster was good at correcting mistakes in textbooks.D．American people didn't write English as exactly as English people did.19．What is Noah Webster famous for in American history?A．His teaching methods.B．His dictionary.C．His fighting for freedom.D．Learning foreign languages.20．What does the last sentence of this article mean?A．Most dictionaries in the world are the copies of Webster’s.B．Most American people followed Webster’s advice on writing.C．Webster’s dictionary is the only one used in the United States.D．Most dictionaries in American English have the characteristic (特点) of Webster’s. 4.（12.5分）CLong, long ago people made fires from lightening (闪电). But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightening. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing (摩擦). They made a hole on a piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.About two centuries ago, people began to make matches. Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fires. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric fire starter. Of course an electric fire starter is much more expensive than a box of matches. But it is very useful.21. From the text we know that a spark can _______.A. fire any leavesB. burn anythingC. burn dry leavesD. keep fire burning22. Matches have been used ________.A. for about two thousand yearsB. for about two hundred yearsC. since people began to use fire for cookingD. since people used the heat from the sun23.

The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to “________”．A. matchesB. peopleC. new waysD.fires25. Which of the following is the right order (排序) of the ways to make fires people got to know?a. with a matchb. from the sunc. from lighteningd. by rubbinge. with an electric fire starterA. a, b, c, d, eB. b, c, a, e, dC. c, d, b, a, eD. d, a, c, b, e三、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分12.5分）5.（12.5分）Does this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well. The grammar is now familiar. The reading comprehension（理解）is no problem. You are communicating quite fluently（流利地）. 26 .First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening comprehension is probably the most difficult task for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. So, the most important thing is to listen as often as possible.27 . The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from , which allows you to use the Internet like a radio station.Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated (使沮丧) by limited understanding. 28 .Here is some of the advice I give my students:Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything.Keep cool when you do not understand --- even if you continue not to understand for a long time.29 . Don’t concentrate on (专注于) details until you have understood the main idea.30 . This approach (方法) usually results in confusion（困惑）. Translating leads toa kind of block in one’s brain which sometimes doesn't allow us to understand anything at all!By remaining calm, allowing yourself not to understand, and not to translate while listening, your brain is free to concentrate on the most important thing: understanding English in English.A. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly.B. What should you do?C. Do not translate everything into your native language.D. This situation leads to less -- not more -- understanding.E. The next step is to find listening resources.F. Listen for the general idea of the conversation.G.

By raising awareness about the importance of environmental protection, we can encourage more people to take action. Governments should invest in renewable energy sources and enforce regulations to reduce pollution.Questions:1. What are some of the challenges facing the environment?2. What are two ways to reduce your carbon footprint?3. What role does education play in protecting the environment?五、写作（共25分）Write an essay on the following topic:How has technology changed our lives? Discuss the positive and negative impacts of technology on society, and suggest ways to mitigate the negative effects.Your essay should be approximately 150-200 words in length.

My mother told us that we would not be _34_ Christmas gifts because there was not enough money. I felt sad and thought，“What would I say when the other kids asked what I’d 35 ” Just when I started to 36 that there would not be a Christmas that year，three women 37 at our house with gifts for all of us. For me they brought a doll. I felt such a sense of 38 that I would no longer have to be embarrassed（尴尬）when I returned to school. I wasn’t 39 . Somebody had thought 40 of me to bring me a gift.Years later， when I stood in the kitchen of my new house， thinking how I wanted to make my 41 Christmas there special and memorable， I 42 remembered the women’s vis it. I decided that I wanted to create that same feeling of 43 for as many children as I could possibly reach.So I 44 a plan and gathered forty people from my pany to help. We gathered about 125 orphans （孤儿）at the Christmas party. For every child， we wrapped colorful packages filled with toys， clothes， and school supplies，45 with a child’s name. We wanted all of them to know they were 46 . Before I called out their names and handed them their gifts， I 47 them that they couldn’t open their presents 48 ever y child had e forward. Finally the 49 they had been waitingfor came as I called out，“One， two， three. Open your presents！” As the children opened their packages， their faces beamed and their bright smiles 50 up the room. The 51 in the room was obvious， and 52 wasn’t just about toys. It was a feelingndash;the feeling I knew 53 that Christmas so long ago when the women came to visit. I wasn’t forgotten.

He’d never been caught by the police because he never took chances. He was always prepared for any unforeseen event or emergency.Confidently，he stood outside the house of his intended victim（受害者）and read the sign on thefront gate of the house.“Don #39;t worry about the dog—be aware of the owner！”i t said.Buster smiled and found his way in.The house looked quite normal outside，but inside it was very exotic with fascinating objects on display.As he began putting them into his bag，a dog came into the room.It stopped when it saw Buster，then wagged its tail madly and went over to him，licking his outstretched hand.“Good boy，”Buster whispered. “What a great guard dog you are—trying to lick me to death.”Satisfied he #39;d made friends with the dog，Bluster began to wander round the house，choosing items to put in his bag.His skilled eye picked out only the best antiques（古董）：a pair of silver candleholders，a silver tea-and-coffee service，etc..His new friend，the dog，sat and watched，as if wondering what was happening.“Well，boy，”Buster whispered，finally.“That might do.Any more and I won #39;t be able to carry it！”He swung the heavy bag onto his shoulders， just as the lights came on， nearly blinding him. He shielded his eyes with his hand.“You #39;re a very silly person，“ the figure（身影） in the doorway said. As the man came closer，Buster could see he was well dressed. His face seemed familiar， but Buster couldn #39;t quite be sure of the place where he had seen him before.“You should have taken more notice of the sign outside，“ the man rasped. “I knew about this attempted robbery last week and I also know you will end up behind bars for 20 years. Fancy trying to robthe house of the world #39;s greatest fortune-teller （算命先生）！“54. Why was Buster so confidentA. He was not afraid of dogs.B. He knew the owner of the house lived aloneC. He had never been caught by the police.D. The house had no security alarm.55. Which of the following is closest in meaningto the word “exotic“ in the third paragraphA. Messy and untidy.B. Rich and expensive.C. fortable and calming.D. Foreign and unusual.56. How did Buster decide which objects to takeA. He took those that were easy to carry in his bag.B. He took only the best antiques.C. He took those that he knew he could sell easily.D. He looked for silver objects.57. What punishment waits for Buster BrownA. A prison sentence with hard labour.B. A long prison sentence.C. A heavy fine.D. munity service for 20 years.B.When you are curious about something， and want to know more about it， you can use the way of asking questions. Asking questions is the first step to make discoveries and find interesting answers. The steps below can guide you during the research.Step 1 On a note card or piece of paper， write down the subject that you are interested in. Just get the main idea down. For exle， you might write: Discover more about dinosaurs.Step 2 Next， stop and think for a moment about what you already know about your subject. List what you already know like the sentences below:1. Dinosaurs lived long before human beings appeared.2. Dinosaurs lived on the earth for more than 150 million years.3. Some dinosaurs fed on plants， some on meat.Step 3 What can you do with what you want to learn By asking questions. On your paper， start writingdown questions about the dinosaurs as you think of them:1. What’s the best weather for dinosaurs to live in2. How many kinds of dinosaurs are there3. Have dinosaurs really disappearedStep 4 Armed with your list of questions， you can now go to the nearest library or puter to begin your research. As you learn more about your subject，you’ll probably discover some new questions.For exle， you might discover that dinosaurs disappeared about 65 million years ago. Why What happened Asking new questions can help you research your subject more widely.The next time you find something interesting to research， take time to organize your thinking by asking good questions. And remember—learning more always bring more questions.58. When you do some research， you should take the following steps: .①list what you want to know ②choose a research subject③list what you already know ④discover new problemsA.①④③②B.②③①④C.③②④①D.④③①②59. What does the underlined sentence “Armed with your list of questions” meanA.Putting your list of questions under your arm.B.Discussing your questions with your classmates.C.Writing down your list of questions.D.Taking your list of questions with you.60. According to the passage， which of the following is TRUEA.You can find all the answers online.B.Learn more，and you’ll have no questions.C.During the research， you may keep finding new questions.D.Asking questions is the only way for research.61. The best title for this passage is .A.Discovering DinosaursB.Asking Good QuestionsC.Finding SubjectsD.Having Interesting AnswersC.To what degree can a puter achieve intelligenceThe answer to this question may lie in a newly-developed US puter program called Smarter Child and the Inter.If you ran into Smarter Child online， you would be surprised at this kid’s huge memor y. It can recite many facts. For exle， Smarter Child knows every baseball player in every team this season.He knows every word in the dictionary and the weather in every major city areas across the US. However， if you ask Smarter Child other questions，you get strange answers. A question about Smarter Child’s age returns. “One year， 11 days， 16 hours， 7 minutes， and 47 seconds！” Asking where he lives gets，“In a clean room in a high-tech building in California.”Smarter Child uses the vast information on the World Wide Web as his memory bank. To answer questions about spelling， for instance， Smarter Child goes to American Heritage Dictionary online. For the weather，he visits .intellicast..Some scientists believe that by joining the many systems of the Inter， an artificial being with the bined knowledge of， say， Albert Einstein， Richard Nixon and Britney Spears could be born. However， if Smarter Child wants to think and learn on his own like the boy-puter David in the movie A. I. Artificial Intelligence， he must overe two problems.The first is that puters find it difficult to read web pages because the files are labeled in different ways. That’s why programmers need to tell Smarter Child where to look for the weather. It would be a much more difficult task to let him find it himself.Another problem is that while Smarter Child can process information more exactly and faster than any human， he lacks mon sense—a basic grounding of knowledge that is obvious to any young child.62.From the text we can infer that .intellicast.is a website .A.where we people can find Smarter ChildB.which is specially designed to help Smarter ChildC.where weather forecasts are madeD.which is about artificial intelligence63.It is probably most difficult for Smarter Child to .A.learn the ability to tell right behaviors from wrong ones.B.tell us how to spell a difficult wordC.provide us with a famous poem by ShakespeareD.tell us how the American government is run64.The underlined “it ” in Paragraph 6 refers to ________.A.where to look for the weatherB.Smarter Child.C.a much more difficult taskD.to read web pages65.Which of the following is the best title for the passageA.A New Web ChildB.Intelligence DevelopmentC.Smarter ChildD.The Future of InterDFirst the ground shook in Haiti， then Chile and Turkey. The earthquakes keep ing hard and fast thisyear， causing people to wonder if something evil （邪恶的）is happening underfoot. It’s not.While it may seem as if there are more earthquakes occurring，there really aren’t. Th e problem is what’s happening above ground， not underground，experts say. More people are moving into big cities that happen to be built in quake zones，and they’re rapidly putting up buildings that can’t withstand （经受） earthquakes， scientists believe. And around-the-clock news coverage （报道） and better earthquake monitoring（监测） make it seem as if earthquakes are ever-present.“I can definitely tell you that the world is not ing to an end，” said Bob Holdsworth， an expert in tectonics （筑造学） at Durharn University in the UK.A 7.0 magnitude quake in January killed more than 230，000 people in Haiti. Last month， an 8.8 magnitude quake--- the fifth-strongest since 1900—killed more than 900 people in Chile. And two weeks ago， a 6.0 magnitude quake struck rural eastern Turkey， killing at least 57 people.On average， there are 134 earthquakes a year that have a magnitude between 6.0 and 6.9， according to the US Geological Survey. This year is off to a fast start with 40 so far—more than in most years for that time period.But that’s because the 8.8 quake in Chile generated a large number of strong aftershocks， and so many quakes early this year skews （扭曲） the picture， said Paul Earle， a US seismologist （地震学家）.Also，it’s not the number of quakes， but their devastating impacts（破坏性的影响） that gain attention， with the death tolls （死亡人数） largely due to construction standards （building standard）and crowding，Earle added. “The standard mantra （咒语）is earthquakes don’t kill people， buildings do，” he said.There have been more deaths over the past decades from earthquakes， said University of Colorado geologist Roger Bilham. In an opinion column lastmonth in the journal Nature， Bilham called for better construction standards in the world’s big cities.Of the 130 cities worldwide with populations of more than 1 million， more than half are prone （倾向于） to earthquakes， Bilham said.Developing nations， where populations are growing，don’t pay attention to earthquake preparedness，Bilham said.” If you have a problem feeding yourself， yo u’re not really going to worry about earthquakes.”Another reason quakes seem worse is that we’re paying attention more. The Haiti earthquake quickly followed by the 8.8 in Chile made everyone start to think.But it won’t last， said US disaster researcher Deniis Mileti. “People are paying attention to the violent pla we’ve always lived on，” Mileti said.”e back in another six months if there has been no earthquakes， most people will have forgotten it again. ”66. What is the main idea of the articleA. The number of earthquakes is increasing this year.B. The reasons why earthquakes are so devastating.C. The reasons why recent earthquakes have struck large cities.D. Why earthquakes seem to be more serious this year.67. Which of the following is NOT a reason for the seeming increase in earthquakes this year，according to the articleA. Greater underground activity.B. A larger number of buildings prone to damage during earthquakes.C. Around-the-clock news coverage.D. Better earthquake monitoring.68. According to the article， it is safe to say that ______.A. there is an evil force beneath the world’s surfaceB. large cities are always built in quake zonesC. enough attention has been paid to reducing the impact of earthquakesD. the earthquake in Chili caused many aftershocks.69. According to the article， the greater damageof earthquakes this year can be mainly caused by______.A. the occurrence of larger earthquakesB. not enough warnings about earthquakesC. poor construction standards and overcrowdingD. an increase in large cities第二卷（45分）五、选词组填空从方框内的词组中选择适当的词组并用其正确形式填空，使下列句子意思和结构完整。

Here are some major reasons for such a decision.1.The health reasonMedical studies prove that a vegetarian diet is easier to digest, provides a wider range of nutrients(营养) and has fewer burdens on the body. Vegetarians are less influenced by all the major diseases, and thus live longer, healthier, more productive lives. They have fewer physical plaints, less frequent visits to the doctor, and smaller medical bills.In a word, they are in the most natural conditions of life.2. __________________Planet earth is suffering. In large measure, the great loss of species, destruction of ancient rainforests to create lands where animals can feed on grass, loss of top soils, and the increase of water impurities(杂质) and air pollution have a mon cause which is the single fact of meat in the human diet. No single decision that we can make as individuals or as a race can have such a dramatic effect on the improvement of our planetary ecology(生态) as the decision not to eat meat. Many seeking to save the planet for future generations have made this decision for this reason and this reason alone.3.The economic reasonThe simple fact is that to produce 1 kilogram of meat, it requires over 16 kilograms of grain and much more water. Millions of animals are bred for meat production. If they were not bred, the vegetation would be used to feed people. And more people in hunger would have their food.56. Vegetarians prefer to live on vegetables for the reasons EXCEPT that _______.A. vegetables are easier to digestB. they provide more kinds of nutrientsC. vegetables are cleaner than meatD. the body will have fewer burdens57. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to this passageA. Vegetarians will spend no money on medical care.B. Vegetarians have more children in their life.C. Vegetarians are usually thinner.D. Vegetarians can save the planet for future generations.58. What might be the proper title for the second partA. The ecological reason.B. The pollutant reason.C. The plant reason.D. The generation reason.59. Which of the following might the writer agreeA. Fewer animals should be bred to produce more grain for people.B. Animals shouldn’t be raised.C. We should save animals.D. Living on vegetables can solve the problem of hunger.60. If people live on vegetables, which of the following may NOT be affected by itA. Species of animals.B. Air quality.C. People’s health.D. Grain quality( B )Frank Woolworth was born in Rodman, New York., in 1852. His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be farmer. He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract people’s interest, but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品 ) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store., selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly from the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placedan order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada, and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT.”61. Frank took a short business course in order to ____________.A. earn more money for his familyB. learn something from a salesmanC. get away from the farmD. get enough to eat.62. Frank sold the odds and ends quickly because _____________.A. he knew how to get people to buy his goods.B. he cut down the price by halfC. he had put the goods on a table in a very nice way.D. the sign he put on the table was well designed.63. The price of the knives was cut down by half because ______________.A. the factory workers worked 24 hours a day.B. knives were ordered in large quantities directly from the factory.C. the knives were made in Germany, where labour (劳动力) was cheap.D. the knives were produced in one factory.64. _____________ make Woolworth a world-famous man.A. His business skills and his wealth.B. The low price of the goods he sold.C. His trip to Germany and his huge order of knives.D. His natural skill for showing things.65. The belief that : “ The customer is always right” suggests that_______________.A. whenever there is a quarrel between the customer and shopassistant, the customers are always right.B. If you want to succeed, the rule is the only way.C. stores must always follow the customer’s orders if they wantto make more money.D. stores should do their best to meet the customer’s needs if theywant to be successful.( C )About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green － a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow.A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.66. The passage is mainly about _____________.A. color and its surprising effects.B. women being luckier than menC. danger caused by color blindnessD. color blindness67. According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can_______________.A. tell different shapesB. see in a weak lightC. kill mosquitoesD. tell orange from yellow68. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by womenA. Women are more careful.B. There are fewer color-blind womenC. Women are fonder of driving than men.D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.69. Which of the statements about the color- blind is trueA. Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.B. None of them can see deep red.C. None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.D. All of them see everything in shades of green.70. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a _____________.A. red lightB. yellow lightC. blue lightD. green light( D )Rome had the Forum (论坛). London has Speaker’s Corner. Now always-on-the-go New Yorkers have Liz and Bill.Liz and Bill, two college graduates in their early 20s, have spent a whole year trying to have thousands of people talk to them in subway stations and on busy street ers. And just talk.Using a 2-foot-tall sign that says, “ Talk to Me,” they attract conversationalists, who one evening included a mental patient, and men in business suits.They don’t collect money. They don’t push religion (宗教). So what’s the point“ To see what happens,” said Liz. “ We simply enjoy life with open talk.”Shortly after the September 11, 2001 attacks, they decided to walk from New York City to Washington, a 270-mile trip. They found they loved talking to people along the way and wanted to continue talking with strangers after their return.“ It started as a crazy idea.” Liz said. “ We were so curious about all the strangers walking by with their life stories. People will talk to us about anything: their job, their clothes, their childhood experiences, anything.”Denise wanted to talk about an exam she was about to take. She had stopped by for the second time in two days, to let the two listeners know how it went.Marcia had led her husband to a serious disease. “That was very heavy on my mind.” Marcia said. “ To be able to talk about it to total strangers was very good,” she explained.To celebrate a year of talking, the two held a get-together in a city park for all the people they had met over the past year. A few hundred people appeared, as well as some television cameramen and reporters.They may plan more parties or try to attract more people to join their informal talks. Some publishers have expressed interest in a book, something the two say they’ll consider before making a decision. 71. What did Liz and Bill determined to do after the attack on September 11, 2001A. Telling stories to strangers.B. Setting up street signs.C. Talking with peopleD. Organizing a speaker’s party.72. What they have been doing can be described as ____________.A. pointless (无意义的)B. normal（正常的）C. crazyD. successful73. Why are Denise and Marcia mentioned in the textA. They knew Liz and Bill very well.B. They happened to meet the writer of the text.C. They organized the get-together in the city park.D. They are examples of those who talked to Liz and Bill.74.

ALast night Mr. and Mrs. Rojas stayed home. It was cold and rainy and they didn’t want to go out in the bad weather. Mrs. Rojas made some popcorn and ice tea. At 8:00, Mr. and Mrs. Rojas went into the living room, sat on the sofa and began the movie and ate and drank. At 8:15, Mr. and Mrs. Rojas realized they already watched the movie last year and they didn’t want to watch it again.“Now what?” asked Mr. Rojas. “Let’s play cards!” answered Mrs. Rojas. At 8:30 Mr. and Mrs. Rojas started to play cards. They were playing for about 10 minutes when Mr. Rojas looked out the window. The rain changed to snow and the trees were covered in beautiful white snow. “I’m happy we stayed home tonight. It looks beautiful outside but this weather is very dangerous to drive in.” said Mr. Rojas. “You’re right,” said Mrs. Rojas, “but I’m bored. Let’s play some music and dance.”Mr. Rojas was surprised. “Dance? But I really don’t ….”“Oh come on!” Mrs. Rojas insisted. She put on a romantic CD and they b oth started to dance. They were dancing for about 1 minute when suddenly the music stopped and the lights w ent out. Mrs. Rojas laughed. “We’re just not very lucky tonight, are we?” she said. Mr. Rojas said, “Of course we’re lucky! We are together!” He kissed her and continued to dance with her, in the dark and without music.21. Why did Mr. and Mrs. Rojas stay at home last night?A. They wanted to stay together.B. The weather was so terrible.C. They had a dinner at home.D. They planned towatch a movie.22. When it started to snow, Mr. and Mrs. Rojas were _________.A. making popcornB. watching a movieC. playing cardsD. dancing to the music23. We can infer from the passage that .A. It was a rainy day in summerB. Mrs. Rojas cooked very wellC. Mr. Rojas loved to dance at firstD. Mr. Rojas was in love with his wifeBStaying with family members or receiving professional care ? Seniors（老年人） in Harbin have a new choice to enrich their life in retirement(退休), as reported.The seniors can take a bus to a day-care nursing home every day between 8 am and 5 pm, just like others go to work, and go back home to be with their families in the evening.In the nursing home, they will receive professional care, have lunch, take part in activities such as calligraphy(书法) and singing, and take university courses designed for them.According to a research, there were million seniors by the end of 2017. Less than 10 percent choose to stay in the nursing home while most live at home. Loneliness and shortage of care are the major problems facing the stay-at-home seniors."After my mother passed away, I struggled to take good care of my father," said Zhou, an office worker.Those who have retired parents agree that their parents spend a boring and lonely day at home, watching TV all day and filling their stomach with food. The situation becomes worse in winter when elders are unable to go out due to the cold.However, the cost of such nursing homes is different from person to person but stands at around 2,000 yuan ($290). Another problem is the shortage of facilities (设施). Even if two seniors share a room in the nursing home, the city still lacks(缺少) at least 100,000 such rooms.24. In the day-care nursing home, the seniors can ________.A. go to workB. stay with their familiesC. attend universityD. get professional care25. What is the main problem for seniors staying at home?A. A lot of seniors choose to live at home.B. They are lonely and short of care at home.C. Their children won’t take care of them.D. They are unable to go out especially in winter.26. What information can be inferred from the passage?A. People have no trouble attending their retired parents.B. The day-care nursing home is getting popular among seniors.C. The price of staying in the nursing home remains the same.D. Two seniors must share one room in the day-care nursing home.CWhen I was in my fourth year of teaching, I was also (and am still) a high school track and field coach (田径教练). One year, I had a student, John, who entered my class when he was a junior (三年级学生). John changed to our school from Greece, and seemed to be interested in athletics, so I encouraged him to join our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he could do well in any event, and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him.
