But some plants get Venus flytraptheir nutrients in other ways. The Venus flytrap is a good example of this. It does make its food using energy from the sun.

After graduating from university in 1963, Miyazaki joined the Toei Animation (动画⽚制作)Company. At Toei, he worked on many animated movies, like the famous Puss in Boots. In 1984, he made Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind, which was based on a comic book he wrote.

It is a children's movie, but many teenagers and adults like it too. The movie is about two sisters who become friends with a big, supernatural (神奇的)animal named Totoro. It is a very warm-hearted story, with many strange and interesting characters such as Cat Bus, a cat which is also a bus. Miyazaki's 2001 movie, Spirited Away, was even more popular than My Neighbour Totoro.All of Miyazaki's movies have strange but charming people and creatures. Many of his stories happen in worlds that are different from ours. However, they still show his ideas about real life. He often points out how humans hurt the natural world. He thinks people should change the ways how they live. This may be why so many people like his movies.51. What is the main idea of this passage? A. The movie My Neighbour Totoro. B.

He wants to protect the environment.BTropical cyclones (热带旋风)are called typhoons (台风)in Asia, and hurricanes (飓风)in North and South America. These storms go around like a wheel(轮⼦)turning to the left. They have wind speeds of 60 kph or more. They can be very destructive (毁灭性的). In the United States, the Tropical Prediction Centre in Miami, Florida, looks out for hurricanes.When scientists discover a true hurricane, they give it a name. They can use either a man's or woman's name. Why should hurricanes have names? The names make it easier for people to keep up with information about a hurricane and its dangers.The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), an international weather group, decides what names will be used. The WMO makes six lists (列表)of names, using the English alphabet. Each list is used for one year. When a hurricane happens, it gets the next name on the list for that year. For example, the first hurricane of the year might have the name Abel, while the second one could be Betty. The name lists do not include (包含)names beginning with the letters O, U, X, Y, and Z, since there are few names that begin with these letters. Asian countries use a different list. This list has a few personal names, but most of the names are of flowers, animals and trees.Why should hurricans have names? A. It sounds interesting. B. The names help people get information abouta hurricane. C. The names are only for the WMO. D. It is traditional.57. _________ decides what names will be used for hurricanes. A. The Tropical Prediction Centre B. A scientist C. The WMO D. Abel58. Which name would a hurricane never have? A. Rita. B. V eronica. C. William. D. Yanni.59. The Fifth hurricane of 2010 might have the name ________. A. Diana. B. Darren. C. Eric. D. Connie.60. Asian countries name typhoons after ________. A. books and buildings B. flowers and animals C. mountains and riversD. oceans and riversCDJs (disc jockeys) are the people who play and present music on the radio, or in a nightclub. A VJ (video jockey) is a person who introduces music videos on television.VJs were first seen on television in the early 1980s when MTV went on the air. As MTV became popular and the audience for music videos increased, different kinds of music video channels started broadcasting. By the 1990s, international music video channels like Channel V in Asia and VIV A in Europe had started.The VJs for the new international stations had to be chosen carefully. Although some VJs showed mostly local content (本地内容), other VJs presented shows for international viewers (电视观众). These VJs, and the material (素材)they presented, needed to be popular in several different cultures.One successful international VJ in Asia is Asha Gill. She is from Malaysia, but her parents and grandparents are from India, France, and England. She speaks three languages and has fans across Asia.When asked what makes a good VJ, many successful VJs have given similar answers. To be a good VJ you need to know a lot about music, you need to be funny, and you can't be shy.61. DJs play music _________, while VJs introduce music videos _________.62. When did VJs first appear on television?63. VJs for international channels should be chosen carefully because they have to be _________.The map below shows the central part of a town and some of its important buildings. Use the map to answer questions 65—67.65. The parking garage entrance opens onto _________ Street.66. In what direction do you walk to the Convention Centre from the bank?67. The theatre is in a building between the Fifth Avenue and _________.E“It's really cool to have a dad who flies fighter jets (喷⽓式战⽃机),” thought 11-year-old Casey as she was watching him fly overhead.Living on an Air Force base (空军基地)was not as bad as some people might think. Casey rather enjoyed being around friends who had something in common with each other. They had their own school, bowling area, and movie theatre. She especially loved it when her dad would come home each day and greet her with a new joke and tickles (搔痒).Today was different, though. When her dad walked into the room, he looked sad for some reason. He just kissed her on the forehead and told her mum that he needed to talk to her. Casey knew something was wrong.When her mum and dad came out of the other room, mum was crying. Dad sat down and began to explain that he has been told to go to Iraq to help with the war effort. Casey was so surprised that she couldn't speak for a moment. She began to feel tears in her eyes.Soon, the day came. Her dad was leaving. It was hard for Casey to believe that she wouldn't be seeing her dad for a whole year. They depended on (依赖)him for so many things. Who would fix the broken window? Who would greet her with jokes and tickles at the end of the day? Casey began to cry more than ever.68. According to the story, one thing Casey enjoyed on the base was that she and her friends _________.69. How did Casey know that something was wrong when her dad got home?70. How long would her dad be away?AIvan Fletcher loves crazy inventions. He writes a weekly magazine column called “Un-believable Inventions”.“One of my favou rite inventions is the Butter Stick. It looks like a stick of glue, but it's butter. You rub it on the bread instead of using a knife,” he says. “Another cool invention is Duster Slippers for pets. You put these special shoes on your dog or cat. As the ani mal runs around your house, it collects dust from the floor. Very useful!” A lot of these inventions come from Japan —the home of the crazy invention.Ivan says that the British also invent a lot of crazy things. “The other day I found an invention call ed a Cat Seat Saver,” he says. “The Cat Seat Saver looks exactly like a sleeping cat — but it isn't real. You put it on your seat if you have to go to the restroom. No one will sit in your seat because they think there's a sleeping cat on it. Pretty cool!”However, does anyone buy these things? Yes. Lucy Wade from the shopping website/doc/acdfe47d31b765ce050814d7.html says that their customers are young, professional people.“They buy these small things mostly for fun,” she says. “They are usually looking for a pres ent for a friend's birthday or a silly gift for a colleague.”If you have an idea for an amazing invention, send it to Lucy atlucyw@/doc/acdfe47d31b765ce050814d7.html .Fish RadioThis useful radio is completely waterproof, so you can listento it in the shower.

He was the store's first customer of the day.“Good morning, sir!” Ernie said. “What can I help you with?”“Well, I...,” Kyle started to say.“Wait, don't tell me,” Ernie (a)_________ him. “You're looking for a... a new puppy... for your daughter's birthday.

Would you like some cat food and toys as well?”“No, thank you,” Kyle said. By this time, he was walking up and down. He had a pained look on his face.“Really, I'm not interested in cats or fish or puppies.”“What do you want, then?” Ernie asked.Kyle looked like he was going to cry. “I just want to know if I can use your bathroom!” he finally said.56.

When one of the stars needs to go to the bathroom, a seat-filler sits in the star's seat. (62) That way, the TV cameras won't show any empty seats. Kathy Miller talks about her night as a seat-filler.I was told to arrive at the theatre at noon, wearing my dress for the evening. There were about 200 of us seat-fillers, all very excited. We were told what we should and shouldn't do (for example, “Don't talk to the stars”), and then we waited until five o'clock. That's when the stars started arriving. Through the crowd, I saw Gwyneth Paltrow (beautiful in a blue gown), and Mel Gibson (He's a lot shorter than he looks in his movies!).The show started at six o'clock. We had to stand outside the doors. Then, when someone came out to go to the bathroom or have a cigarette, we were told to go and sit in his seat. The show was three hours long, and I only sat down five times. In the end, I was really tired. But I was happy because, during the evening, I sat behind Jim Carrey (He's very tall!) and close to Denzel Washington, Nicole Kidman and Julia Roberts. It was an exciting night, but I think next year I'll watch the Oscars on TV at home like everyone else!61-62. Translate the underlined sentences into Chinese.63. When was a seat-filler allowed to sit in a star's seat?64. What did Kathy Miller feel about being a seat-filler?DEvery year students from schools around the country enter the Top Student Competition. The top students are those who score more than 90% in a national test. It is good for both students and schools to score well on the test. Students who score well can get money for university. Schools that score well are more respected, so good teachers want to work there. Schools keep track of the number of top students each year. For example, below are the records for Spring Hill High School. It is not a very large school with fewer than two hundred students. Each year, there are fifty to sixty high school seniors who take the national test. Do you think Spring Hill is a respected school?Look at the graph.65.

He went to schoolin St Albans, a small city near London. Although he did well, he was never top of his Class.After leaving school, Hawking went first to Oxford University where he studied physics,and then he went to Cambridge University where he studied cosmology(宇宙论). As hehim-self admits, he didn't work hard. He was a very lazy student, and did very little work.How-ever, he still got good marks.It was at the age of 20 that Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him. Hestarted to bump(撞下)into things. When he visited his family at Christmas time, his motherwas so worried that she made him see a doctor. Hawking was sent to hospital for tests. Finally, the result came back. Hawking had motor neuron disease, an incurable illness which would make him unable to speak, breathe or move without the help of a machine. Doctorssaid they had no way to help him. He would die before he was 23.At first, Hawking became very depressed. After a while, though, he began to see his lifein a different way. As he later wrote,“Before my illness was diagnosed, I had been with life. There had not seemed to be anything worth doing. But shortly after I came out of hospital, I suddenly realized that there were a lot of worthwhile things I could do.married, found a job at Cambridge University, and had three children. He also went to dosome of the most important scientific research.Today, Hawking still works at Cambridge University as a professor. He strongly believes that his story shows that nobody, how had their situation is, should lose hope.he once said.“You just have to do the best you can in your own situation.is not fair,”42.AS a university student, Stephen Hawking ___________.A.worked very hard B.studied math and physicsC.was the best student in his class D.was lazy and did very little work43.Hawking first noticed something was wrong with him when _________.A.he was sent to hospital for test B.his mother made him see a doctorC.he was twenty D.he visited his family at Christmas time one year 44.

What would be the best title for this passage?A.Motor Neuron Disease B.Life is FairC.Professor Stephen Hawking D.A Lazy BoyKAbout 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 aremillions of very small things called "cones". These help us to see in a bright light and to tell the 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 (蚊子) 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 tan 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.47. The passage is mainly about _____.A. color and its surprising effectsB. women being luckier than menC. danger caused by color blindnessD. color blindness48. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?A. Women are more careful.B. There are fewer color-blind women.C. Women are fonder of driving than men.D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.49. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a _____.A. red lightB. yellow lightC. blue lightD. green light50. Which of the statements about the color-blind is true?A. 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.参考答案A.CBADAB. ADCBCCDAD.ADDDBE. CDCBAF.ADACBG.DCAABH.BCDI.AACJ.DCADCK.DBCA。

My friend named Steve and I decided to sleep in the open air. I found the sleeping bags under the bed in my room. I also packed some snacks. We could hardly wait for it to get dark. We opened our sleeping bags and put them on the grass in front of my house. Steve and I played some games, talked about somethinginteresting and had a snack. In the end it got dark. We were just falling asleep when we heard something unusual.“Maybe it is just a small animal,” I said. Steve said nothing, but I could feel he was frightened.

It gives us some interesting phrases(短语).One is “to let the cat out of the bag" It is the same as “to tell the secret”. There is an old interesting story about it.Long ago, when people sold things in big cloth bags, a woman asked a man for a pig. The man held up his cloth bag. There seemed to be a little pig in it. The woman asked to see it. When the man opened the cloth bag, a big black cat ran out. Not a pig! The man's secret was out and everyone knew it.Now when someone lets out(泄漏)a secret, he "let's the cat out of the bag". And that is the story where the interesting phrase came from.根据短文选择正确答案。
