15、Don’t be too surprised if you see a car going down the road without a driver in Beijing these days. It might be one of Baidu’s self-driving cars.

Self-driving cars have been in development since 2010, when Google announced that it was making such cars. Since then,companies like Tesla, Uber and Baidu have been working to produce and test their own

self-driving cars.

Self-driving cars are expected to change the way we get around. They are safer and more environmentally friendly than usual cars. They can remove the stress of driving and allow disabled or blind people to get around more easily.

But self-driving cars have their own flaws (缺陷)as well. In one test, researchers pointed a laser pointer (激光棒)at the car’s sensors (传感器)while it was moving. The car mistakenly thought that the laser beam(激光束）was in its way and slowed down or changed direction. Flaws like this could be used by people to trick self-driving cars.

The software (软件)that is used to direct the cars may not be safe enough. It may crash (崩溃),When we use our computers or smart phones, they sometimes crash without any reason. But if this happened to a self-driving car, the results could be deadly. Improvements to the software could be a way to deal with this problem.

Anyway, whether you like it or not, it’s only a matter of time before they’ll become more affordable and popular on our roads.

1． was the first company to develop self-driving cars? A．Google.

B．Telsa

C．Uber.

D．Baidu.

2．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A．Solutions for disabled people. C．Reasons for testing self-driving cars.

B．Tips for riding in self-driving cars. D．Advantages of self-driving cars.

3．When sensing an obstacle(障碍物）in the road，self-driving cars will . A．attack it with a laser pointer C．crash into it to get past it

B．slow down or change direction D．stop and move around it

4．Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage? A．Self-driving cars free people from the stress of driving. B．Self-driving cars can reduce traffic accidents.

C．Researchers have solved the problems self-driving cars have. D．The software of the self-driving cars needs improvements. 5．What’s the writer’s opinion about the self-driving cars? A．They are more dangerous. C．They cause more pollution.

B．They’ll be well developed in the future. D．They’ll be more expensive in the future.

17、Science fiction is a popular kind of writing, and many people think of Jules Verne as the father of science fiction. He was born in France in 1828. His father wanted him to become a lawyer(律师), but when he was about twenty years old, Verne decided to become a writer. At first he wrote plays for the theater. Then, in 1863, he wrote a story called Five Weeks in a Balloon.

It was the first Disney movie to use real actors instead of cartoon drawings. Around the World in Eighty Days is another famous movie based on one of Verne’s books.

16、Rock and roll music developed in the United States in the early nineteen-fifties. It was based on the music called rhythm and blues that was performed by African American musicians.

Early rock and roll singers developed their own kinds of music. Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, the Beach Boys, and Bob Dylan were the most popular rock and roll musicians in the early 1960’s. All were American. Then, in 1964, a new rock and roll group from England invaded America: the Beatles.

Some people say the Beatles’ music shook America like an earthquake. The Beatles changed rock and roll forever. Their early songs were influenced by American rock and roll musicians, including Chuck Berry. But the Beatles looked different and sounded different from any musical group before them. The Beatles released their first album in the United States in 1964, when all of the top five records in America were by the Beatles. In 1967, they released an album called “Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.” It was one of the first “concept” albums. That is, all the songs were linked by a common story or idea.

The popularity of the Beatles led the way for more rock and roll bands from England to become popular in America. The Rolling Stones was the most important of these bands. The Rolling Stones is one of the few groups from the 1960’s that is still performing and recording today. In 1965, the group recorded one of its most famous songs, “Satisfaction”.

The musical instrument most linked to rock and roll is the guitar. Experts say Jimi Hendrix was one of the most influential guitar players in rock and roll during the late 1960’s. His “Purple Haze” was liked by many people.

By the 1970’s, rock and roll music became known as rock music. It expanded into many new forms. For example, there was country rock, hard rock, acid rock, and heavy metal rock. Punk rock, jazz rock, and glitter rock.

In the middle 1970’s, experts say rock music regained some of the energy of early rock and roll. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band became popular with their album “Born to Run”. Springsteen’s music was like the lively rock and roll music of the early nineteen-sixties. Many of his songs were about social issues. He sang about the effects of unemployment and the war in Vietnam. 1．（小题1）The main topic of this passage is _______. A．the history of American music B．the famous rock and roll groups

17、 There are some popular family videos that are being posted on Chinese social media these days. In these videos, a young child calls out to their mother or father; the parent comes into the room smiling, turns around and calls out to their own parent; the grandparent then comes into the room smiling and calls out to their parent---the great- grandparent.

The form of these videos is being described as the “four-generation (四代人的) challenge”. It started on Douyin and has been popular in social media in other countries. People from all over the world have talked much about the videos and even made their own. The videos also make some people remember their family members who have been dead and remind them to love what they have. “Because of the video, I will visit my grandmother this weekend,” a Twitter user wrote.

“I have to say that family love is usually a strong value in China,” wrote Justin. “The ?four-generation? videos have not only touched foreign viewers, but also given them a deeper look into Chinese family values.” In most East Asian cultures, many generations of a single family like to live together. This is called an extended family (大家庭). In most Western countries, most families are nuclear families (小家庭), or families that are made up of just children and their parents.

In Western culture, private secrets and independence are highly valued. Kids usually move out of the house after they turn 18. Many of them work part-time jobs in order to pay for college. If they

choose to continue living with their parents after becoming an adult, it can be seen as a sign of immaturity (不成熟).Although family forms in the East and West may be different, the love and connections between family members are the same. That might be why the “four- generation” videos have won so many hearts around the world.

1．A Twitter user wants to visit his grandmother because he . A．has no choice but to do so C．lives in a single-parent family

B．is reminded by his parents

D．is touched after watching the videos

2．The underlined part in Paragraph 3 refers to . A．advise them to visit their Chinese relatives B．let them know more about Chinese family values C．give them a chance to move their families to China D．ask them to do something valuable for Chinese families 3．The word “independence” in Paragraph 5 means “ ”. A．自由

B．独立

C．快乐

D．成长

4．The “four-generation” videos are popular because . A．Justin has already written some reviews B．family forms in the East and West are similar C．the love between family members is the same D．many generations of a single family live together

11、Some people succeed, while others may not. This is because some people own certain qualities, which 1 don't have. If you want to be successful, you should have the following qualities at least. The 2 thing you must remember is that in order to succeed, you must be optimistic(乐观的). If you do not 3 to win, you will not try as hard as those who do expect to win. You also need to have a clear purpose and a 4 for doing something. If you do not have a purpose, you will not do your best to work hard and make sure that every detail you have done 5 right. Reading is another thing to success, as it will help you learn about 6 other people have achieved

success. If you want to learn how to set up a successful business, you should read books about like Bill Gates and Jerry Yang, who have 7 amazing success in their areas of business. Another 8 that helps people succeed is creativity—thinking about things differently and wondering how others will do 9 thing. Think about some successful people you know.

14、On October 17,2016 the Shenzhou-11 manned spaceship was sent into space from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Centre in Gansu. Two days later the spaceship successfully connected with the space laboratory Tiangong-2. It meant China got closer to its plan of building a space station in 2020.

The spaceship took two Chinese astronauts to space this time. Jing Haipeng was an experienced astronaut who flew on Shenzhou-7 in 2008 and Shenzhou-9 in 2012. But it was Chen Dong’s first space flight. Jing and Chen were given a 30-day task on Tiangong-2. They tested new technology and did experiments to prepare for future space station tasks. The astronauts themselves were also the subject(对象) of those experiments. The life support devices(设备) they used and how they lived inside the space laboratory were studied. No Chinese astronaut had stayed in space for that long before.

A month-long space task was not easy, so Chinese scientists and engineers had come up with lots of new technologies to allow astronauts to stay more safely and more comfortably in space.

One of the new technologies tested during this task was a device called “space hospital”. The space hospital was two little silver boxes tied around the two astronauts’ legs. Through the “space hospital”, scientists and doctors on the Earth could watch the astronauts’ heart rate and temperature. When the astronauts felt tired, the “space hospital” could even massage(为……按摩) them.

After this task, China is expected to send an unmanned cargo spaceship(无人货运飞船) in mid-April next year. It will dock with Tiangong-2 and take new fuel to the space laboratory. 1．The spaceship docked with the space laboratory Tiangong-2 on _______. A．October 17 B．October 19 C．November 19 D．November 20 2．How many times has Jing Haipeng been to space?

A．Once. B．Twice. C．Three times. D．Four times.

3．From this passage, we can learn that Jing and Chen stayed in the space laboratory for_____. A．three days B．a month C．thirty-three days D．two months 4．What is the “space hospital” used for?

A．Protecting astronauts’ safety B．Watching the astronauts’ heart rate and temperature C．Massaging the astronaut D．All the above

5．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A．China will build its own space station in 2020.

B．In October, 2016 Chen Dong took his first space flight. C．The two astronauts themselves did experiments in space.

15、Imagine the situation. You are driving along a desert or on a mountain. You have no idea where you are. You passed the last house two hours ago. Then your car breaks down. It is night and it is cold. You have no mobile phone. What do you do? Well, next time take a GPS with you. This invention may be able to help you. It is a device(装置) which uses satellites (卫星) to find the user’s position(位置). It can find your position to within 20 metres. A GPS cannot start your car, but at least you will know where you are. GPS, which means Global Positioning System, is a small radio receiver. It looks like a mobile phone. You can hold it in your hand, or put in your pocket. It is sometimes put into a watch or a telephone. We also find GPS devices in cars, planes, or boats. Some of these devices have electronic maps, so you know where you are. For example, in a city they can tell you the name of the street.

There are three parts to the Global Positioning System. The first part is the receiver. You can hold it in your hand, or have it fixed into your car, plane, etc. The second part is a group of satellites orbiting the Earth. The receiver contacts at least four of the satellites and calculates(计算) its position. The third part of the system is a network of ground stations.____are all over the world. They control the satellites and make sure they are working well.

Some people think that in the future the GPS will be as common as the mobile. They are becoming cheaper and more and more accurate(精确的). There are also new uses for the GPS. Perhaps they will become like watches. Everyone will have one and you will never be lost again. 1．According to the passage, with the help of the GPS, people ________. A．can’t be lost in a new city

B．can’t find their way in different countries C．can learn about the culture of an unknown place D．can spend the least time getting to another place 2．We can learn from the passage that ______. A．there are three parts to the GPS B．a GPS can’t be put into a watch C．a GPS can help you start your car

D．the GPS are becoming more and more expensive

3．The underlined word “They” in paragraph 3 means “________”. A．Receivers B．GPS devices C．Satellites D．Ground stations

4．The passage is mainly about _____.

A．the history of the GPS B．the introduction of the GPS C．the shape of the GPS D．the three parts of the GPS 5．What can we infer(推断) from the passage? A．All GPS devices have electronic maps.

B．People in many countries will use the GPS for free.

C．The receiver of the GPS contacts at least five of the satellites. D．The GPS will become more and more common in everyday life.

16、 A gift card is a card that is issued(发行) by a store. These cards are big money makers for stores. One reason is that when gift-card holders go to the store, they often see other things to buy, and they spend more money than the gift card is worth. Unused cards are another reason. Stores make millions of dollars because large numbers of people never use their cards. They either lose them, forget about them, or decide that it's not worth the effort.

Gift cards are becoming very popular in many countries around the world. In the US, they are one of the most popular kinds of gifts. Why? People love the convenience—gift cards are easy to buy and easy to use, either in the store or online. The recipient can choose his or her own gift, and the giver does not have to worry about finding just the right thing.

Receiving a gift card, however,is not the same as receiving a gift. A real gift is a better reminder of the person who gave it. The message of a real gift is more likely to be,\right gift for you because I care about you.\It may seem to say,\

In today's world, gift cards are certainly convenient. However, they can make us forget the real purpose of giving gifts, which is to build a closer connection between the gift-giver and the gift-recipient. 1．How many reasons are given to explain why gift cards are big money makers for stores? A．One

B．Two

C．Three

2．What does the underline word\A．商家

B．接受者

C．发行者

3．What is the second paragraph mainly about? A．Why gift cards are popular in the US. B．Different kinds of gift cards. C．Where to buy gift cards.

4．What message does a gift card send according to the writer? A．I didn’t have time to buy you a real gift.

B．I know you like the gift cards. C．I couldn’t find the right gift for you.

5．Which of the following is the writer's opinion? A．It's easy for people to lose gift cards. B．Gift cards help people save money. C．Real gifts can bring people closer.

13、People often decide where to live based on the natural resources in the area. Natural resources are things that are useful to people and come from the earth. Materials for building houses are natural resources. So are foods, such as fruits, vegetables, animals that could be caught or hunted and water. The weather and land forms let certain things grow in different areas. They also determine(决定)which living things will be able to grow there. Areas with very rich soil are made to be good farming communities. Poor soil may send farmers to look for better places. However, areas with poor soil may attract those who have other purposes for the land. Poor soil doesn’t matter if you want to build a factory. It also doesn’t matter if it grows grass well.

Each area attracts people based on their interests and purposes. Areas that support many different interests will naturally have larger populations. You may not think of the mountains, lakes or oceans as natural resources. In fact they are. Villages and cities built near water sources have been the most successful. People who want to catch fish for a living choose to live by the ocean, instead of the desert. People living near water can use it to meet their daily needs.

Places that are difficult to reach will naturally have fewer people. Places that are high on mountain tops are not very desirable to most people. Neither are places that are in the middle of hot, dry deserts.

For too long, humans have destroyed resources. We have been using up those that can’t be easily replaced. Renewable(可再生的) resources are those that can be replaced easily. We are lucky to have many resources that are renewable, such as the sun, wind, water and trees. We need to use more renewable resources. This will protect our planet.

1．Areas with very rich soil can be used as_______. A．fishing places B．ranching places C．a factory D．farming communities 2．What does the third paragraph mainly tell us? A．What people living near water live on except fishing. B．How big villages and cities by the oceans come out.

C．People choose places to live according to interests and purposes. D．People don’t live in places that are difficult to reach.

3．Which of the following does NOT belong to natural resources? A．Animals that could be caught. B．Beds, tables and chairs. C．The mountains, lakes or oceans. D．Materials for building houses. 4．What is the best title for the passage?

A．The natural resources. B．An area’s weather. C．How to choose your house. D．Renewable resources. 5．This passage may come from________.

A．a story B．a fashion magazine C．a school report D．a cartoon film

14、All over the world the need for more laptops and computers increases each year. Networks have been part of our life. Probably everyone with a portable device (移动设备) has once logged on to a public WiFi network without paying for it, while they are having a coffee, on a train, in a shopping mall or at a hotel. However, is this kind of public WiFi network safe?

Some networks are better protected than others because encryption (加密) methods are used. Therefore, they are safer than others. But a survey in 2015 showed that more than 950 million records were not protected, including addresses, emails, birth dales, phone numbers, passwords and so on. These open WiFi networks are really not safe, because it is very easy for hackers to break into the operating system and get people's private information.

Most smartphones and laptops, by themselves, search and connect to WiFi networks. They usually prefer a network with a connection that has been used before. Hackers' devices are able to record these searches and look like the trusted WiFi networks. When these smartphones and laptops log on to the networks which are not real, hackers can easily steal their private information.

So next time, when we want to use our laptops or our smartphones in public places which offer free WiFi networks，please think it twice or take safe measures before using them. 1．We can learn from the passage that______.

A．not all the public WiFi networks are safe B．none of the public WiFi networks is safe

C．in 2015 more than 950 million records were protected D．there is no way to protect our private information

2．Hackers would probably get the following EXCEPT_______when we connect our laptops or smartphones to a public WiFi network.

A．our birth dates B．our passwords C．our phone numbers D．our smartphones

3．Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?

A．Don't Use Public WiFi Networks B．Why the Public WiFi Networks a Possible Danger

C．We Needn't Protect Our Private Information D．Why Hackers Break into the Operating System

16、Throughout history, people have been interested in knowing how language first began, but no one knows exactly where or how this happened. However, we do know a lot about languages, the language of today and also the languages of earlier times. There are probably about 3000 languages in the world today. Chinese is the lang uage with the most speakers. English, Russian and Spanish are also spoken by millions

of people. On the other hand, some languages in the world have less than one hundred speakers. There are several important families of languages in the world. For example, most of the languages of Europe are in one large family called Indo-European. The original language of this family was spoken about 4,500 years ago. Many of the present-day languages of Europe and India are modern forms of the language of 4,500 years ago.

Languages are always changing. The English of tod ay is very different from the English of 500 years ago. In time, some even die out completely. About 1,000 years ago, English was a little known relative of German spoken on one of the borders of Europe.

If a language has a number of speakers, or if it is very old, there may be differences in the way it is spoken in different areas. That is, the language may have several dialects. Chinese is a good example of dialect differences. Chinese has been spoken for thousands of years by many millions of people. The differences between the dialects of Chinese are so great that speakers of Chinese from some parts of Ch ina can’t understand spe akers from other parts.

1．The first paragraph mainly tells us that_______. A．most people in the world speak Chinese

B．there are thousands of languages in today’s world C．people have much knowledge about languages D．some people know several languages

2．Most European and Indian languages_______. A．will soon die out completely B．were once a relative of English C．are no longer spoken

B．English was a well-known relative of German spoken on one of the borders of Europe.

C．A language has many speakers, but there may be no differences in the way it is spoken in different areas. D．Speakers of Chinese from some parts of China can understand speakers from other parts. 4．It is considered to be the most difficult thing for one to learn to speak Chinese because _______. A．there are great differences between the dialects of Chinese B．Chinese and many foreign languages are not of the same family C．Chinese is a ve ry old language

D．there are great differences between the old Chinese and the present-day Chinese

5．The underlined word “dialect” in the last paragraph means_______. A．a special language spoken by Chinese

As a part of the campaign, police officers watched bars, restaurants and KTVs in Beijing, Shanghai, Liaoning, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Hubei and Guangdong. It ended up on December 5. But it told the drivers the meaning of the new traffic laws and the dangers of drinking.

In Beijing, some restaurants put up notices and told drivers about their responsibility. “Usually if a group of guests come by car, the driver won’t drink. If he does, we will remind him,” said a waitress from Dongfang Restaurant in Beijing. Fewer drivers are drinking alcohol nowadays, since many know about the campaign.

Wang Lankun, a traffic policeman in Beijing said, “Some drivers think a glass of beer is not a problem. But a blood test will show that their blood-alcohol level is more than 20mg for each 100ml of blood, that is enough to affect their driving.”

During the campaign, drivers who have a blood-alcohol level of over 20mg for each 100ml of blood will get a fine of 500 yuan. Also, they will not be allowed to drive for three months.

In fact, there are strict laws to punish drunk driving in many other countries. For example, in the USA, if someone has a blood-alcohol level of over 80mg for each 100ml of blood, he will be sent to prison for one year. But in Britain, he will be fined 5,000 pounds and banned （禁止）from driving for 12 months, also he will be sent to prison for 6 months. In Germany, if a driver has a blood-alcohol level of over 60mg for each 100ml of blood, he won’t be allowed to drive until he passes a new driving test. 1．How long did the campaign last?

A．For about half a year. B．For about four and a half months. C．For about 12 months. D．For about three months. 2．The police officers watched many places except ___________. A．restaurants B．KTVs C．schools D．bars

3．If a driver drinks a glass of beer before driving in China,_________ A．it won’t affect his driving.

B．he will take a new driving test and get a driver’s license. C．he won’t be allowed to drive for three months.

D．his blood-alcohol level will be over 60mg for each 100ml of blood.

4．If a driver has a blood-alcohol level of over 80mg for each 100ml of blood in Germany, which punishment will he accept?

A．One year in prison. B．Banned until he passes a new driving test. C．A 12-month ban from the roads. D．A fine of 5000 pounds. 5．From the text, we know_________.

C．The Ministry Publish Security began this campaign to punish the drivers D．All drivers must pass a new driving test if they drive after drinking

13、A 12-man Chinese team landed on the Antarctic icecap(南极冰盖最高点) peak on January 18. They are

the first people to reach the peak of Dome A (海穹A). It is 4,039 meters above sea level (海拔).

The team built a station there to study the changes of the weather, get ice samples (标本) from 150 meters to 200 meters below, and do other studies. So far, the team has got nearly 100-meter long ice samples from a place about 300 meters under the icecap peak.

It is the first time that people have been able to get samples from the icecap peak in Antarctica and it is very important for people to study the weather changes and environmental changes in this area(地区). The Chinese scientists have also built a weather study system (系统) at the peak. The system can send out information about temperature, how strong the wind is, and many other things about the weather.

The Antarctic icecap makes up 70% of the earth's freshwater (淡水). By studying Dome A, scientists can get the lowest temperature of the earth and other information about the world's weather changes. We can't get this information from other places on the earth because Dome A is the best place for this kind of studies. So it is very important to land on the peak of Dome A． 1．The team has got about 100-meter long ice samples ___.

A．from 150 meters to 200 meters below B．from a place about 300 meters below C．from 200 meters to 250 meters below D．from a place about 150 meters below 2．They built a weather study system to get ___.

A．②①④③ B．②①③④ C．③②①④ D．②③④①

4．From this passage, we can infer (推断): After the Chinese team landed on the Antarctic icecap peak, ___. A．we can go there for holidays

B．the world's weather must be better and better C．the peak will be the best place for people to live in D．our country will do better in the world's weather research

14、In the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what \It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.

The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23.

They moved back to an apartment in New York City.

Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it \with the Joneses\appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.

17、Many kids help parents to do chores such as washing the dishes, cleaning the floors and taking out the trash in the house. In return, some kids get money or other rewards from their parents, such as 20 minutes to play computer games.

But some people do not think that kids should get rewards(奖赏) for doing chores. One of them is Susie Walton, a parenting educator. She believes that if kids get rewards, they will think that work isn’t worth doing unless you get something in return. For example, kids won’t sweep the floor if they see it is dirty. But they will clean the floor if their parents reward them for it. “Every house is a team effort,” Susie said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It’s important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities to keep our home clean.

Other people have different opinions. They believe that money or other rewards can motivate kids to do more chores. It also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. Now, there are also apps(应用软件) that encourage kids to do chores. The apps give kids points and digital gifts that can be used either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids earn digital points after doing chores. Kids can exchange their points for real rewards, such as time to play video games or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards,\ChoreMonster. “Kids need positive(积极的) power to make them do chores.

What do you think? Should kids be rewarded for doing chores? Or should kids help out around their homes without getting anything in return?

Write a 200-word response. Send it to tfkasks4you@timeforkids.com. Your response may be published in Time For Kids. Please include your grade and contact information of your parent or teacher if you want your response to be published. The deadline for responding is February 18.

1．How does the author start the passage?

A．By giving some facts. B．By listing some opinions.

C．By comparing different views. D．By showing his own experiences. 2．Which of the following is Susie Walton's opinion?

A．Don’t ask kids to do housework. B．Don’t reward kids for doing anything.

C．Don’t give kids rewards for doing chores. D．Don't allow kids to play computer games. 3．What's Paragraph 3 mainly about? A．How to earn money by doing chores. B．The apps that encourage kids to do chores. C．How to exchange their points for real rewards. D．The advantage of rewarding kids for doing chores.

4．What's the meaning of the underlined word “motivate” in the passage? A．remind B．encourage C．prevent D．warn 5．What is the purpose of writing the text? A．To call on readers to do more chores. B．To tell readers of two different opinions. C．To invite readers to express their opinions. D．To show the author’s views about doing chores.

18、Touch is one of the most important of our five senses. It is one of the first senses we develop. One of the most commonly accepted forms of touch among people is also one of the first experiences we have in the world-A hug !

There is no better way to understand the importance of hugs than to lose them. For those who have experienced the loss of hugs ,you will know how important they are to share.

A recent research has shown that when people hug , the brain releases(释放)the chemical which increases our willingness to trust and reduces fear. It has also shown that hugs are great for your heart.

In 1995,a pair of newly born twins was being cared for in hospital. While one of the twins seemed quite healthy,her sister was not. After trying different medical treatments,the nurse on duty, Gayle Kasparian , placed the twins in bed together. The twins immediately snuggled(依偎)up to each other. As one placed her arm around the other, the weak baby became better gradually. How great the power of a hug is !

The need for hugs doesn't disappear as we grow older,though it seems we are less willing to give them. Research on people of all ages has proven that a hug is necessary for physical and emotional health.

Without hugs we can become sad. A hug provides safety and gentleness. A hug provides us with social contact,a sense of health and a feeling of importance and belonging.

1．The writer believes that .

A．touch is the most important sense B．the hug is one of humans ' five senses C．touch is the first developed sense D．the hug is one of the forms of touch 2．What does the recent research show about hugs?

A．Hugs can release a kind of chemical. B．The hug is good for people 's heart. C．The hug increases people 's fear. D．The hug reduces the feeling of trust. 3．What can we learn from the story of the twins?

A．Twins should be placed in bed together. B．The power of a hug is great. C．Twins should be looked after together. D．Medical treatments are important. 4．A hug provides all the following except . A．a sense of social contact B．a sense of health C．a sense of belonging D．a sense of power

5．Which of the statements is TRUE according to the text? A．A hug is the only form of touch among people. B．The loss of hugs can make them more important. C．Hugs can get people to trust each other more. D．We don 't need hugs when we grow older. Ⅴ.书面表达

19、Last Monday Wang Qiang rode his bike back home. On his way home, at a crossroads he saw an old lady going across the road. Because the traffic lights didn’t work at that time, all the traffic crossed the road without stopping one by one. The lady hesitated in whether she should cross it, but she was afraid to do that When Wang Qiang saw that, he offered to stop the traffic with his bike in order to lead her to cross the road safely.

In my opinion, Wang Qiang is such a good example that we should learn from him. At the same time we also suggest that all the drivers should let people cross first and then traffic when this situation happens.

During his stage life, he combined(融合)the traditions of the past and his own creations，creating a style of his own and giving birth to \foreigners, winning international fame(名声)in the world. For half a century, Mei Lanfang was a household name in China.

Thanks to his efforts，he managed to change his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.

In over 50 years on the stage，Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the traditional Peking Opera performance(表演).He completely changed both stage make-up and costumes，and made characters' performance richer. He also wrote many new plays，designing the dances himself. They are part of the great legacy(遗赠)that he left to Peking Opera.

17、 For the past over forty years, Billy Barr has been living alone in Gothic, Colorado, a US ghost town (遗弃的城镇）. He passed the time by recording all kinds of data about snowfalls, such as the temperature and the depth of the snow.

He never imagined that the results of his hobby would one day help scientists better understand global warming and make him get a cool superhero name-the Snow Guardian（守护者）.

Bur first came to Gothic in 1972 as a university student doing water chemistry research. He liked the

quiet life here so much that he began to live here after finishing university.

Barn began the winter of 1974 camping in a tent. It was not exactly perfect in a place where snow reaches 7.6 metres a year. Luckily, the owner of a small old house was kind enough to let Barr move in. It became his home and he started his records on snow there.

The house was buried in the snow eight years after he moved in, but that didn't drive him away. He just found another place to stay and continued his research.

Though he spends most of his time alone, Barr doesn't consider himself lonely. He says, \the way things are. I mean, if I weren't, I would leave.” 1．Barn is called the Snow Guardian because . A．he has solved the problem of global warming B．he lives in Gothic alone and it snows all year round C．he has recorded snowfalls in Gothic for over 40 years D．he has become a superhero in American people's hearts 2．How long did Bars live in the small old house? A．For two years. C．For eight years.

B．For four years. D．For over forty years.

3．The underlined word \A．推倒

B．燃烧

C．消失

D．概埋

4．How does Barr feel about his life in Gothic? A．Satisfied.

B．Bored.

C．Worried.

18、One of the easiest and cheapest ways to help your health is just to sleep eight hours or more every night, but more and more people in the world are not sleeping enough. According to the World Health

Organization, over half the people in the world may besleep-deprived. The result of this is not just a lot of tired people; in the United States alone, sleepy drivers cause at least 100,000 car accidents, and 1,500 deaths a year. Problems with sleep can also cause mental （心理的） problems, as well as medical problems such as high blood pressure and heart problems.

American culture values work and often doesn’t value sleep. In fact, people who sleep a lot are often called “lazy”. Many famous men say proudly, “I only have time to sleep four or five hours a night.” Students, especially college students, often sleep only a few hours a night. They often say, “I’m used to sleeping only a little.”

But according to experts, sleep is like money. If you sleep only five hours a day, you don’t “get used to it”, but instead, build up a “sleep deficit （亏损）”. “It’s like a credit card （a card used to buy things or services）,” says Dr. James Maas, “You are only borrowing time. You always have to pay it back.” The more

D．Disappointed.

hours you don’t sleep, the more hours you should sleep to “pay back” the hours on your “sleep credit card”. For example, if you sleep four hours on Monday and then sleep eight hours on Tuesday, on Wednesday you will still have a “sleep deficit” of four hours. This deficit can continue for months or even years. People with a “sleep deficit” are sleep-deprived. Driving and making decisions can be dangerous for these people. Another research shows people should sleep nine or ten hours every night. More than half the people in the world may be running a “sleep deficit”. You didn’t do your homework last night? Maybe you can tell your teacher that you were working hard on your sleep deficit.

“Don’t think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the day. That’s a foolish idea which is held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to do more,” said Winston Churchill. 1．How many hours do we need to sleep every day if we want to keep healthy? A．7. B．6. C．11. D．8.

2．What does the underlined word “sleep-deprived” mean? A．Easily sleepy. B．Having difficulties falling asleep. C．Short of sleep. D．Afraid of sleeping.

3．From the passage we know sleep-deprived people ________. A．are easily tired

B．most likely cause traffic accidents

C．can have both mental and medical problems D．have all the above problems

4．What Winston Churchill said means ________. A．sleep more during the day, work more at night B．sleep during the day influences your work

C．people who sleep during the day have no imagination D．sleep during the day is helpful to your work

5．Which of the following may be the best title for the passage? A．Sleep and Health

B．The Less Sleep, the More Danger C．Work Less, Sleep More D．Pay Back Your Sleep Hours Ⅴ.书面表达

17、A popular saying goes, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” However, that’s not really true. Words have the power to cheer us up or let us down. It doesn’t matter if the words come from someone else or ourselves — the positive and negative (正面和负面) influences are just as lasting.

We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We’re usually too shy to admit(承认) it, though. In fact, we really shouldn’t be because more and more scientists believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit. This “self-talk” helps us make ourselves active, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. It is said that as much as 77% of self-talk is likely to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only

speak words of encouragement to ourselves.______________________________The next time you finish a project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “Good job!”

Often, words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the influence they will have. But we should realize that our words cause certain influence in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm, friendly language during the exchange. And the salesperson will probably answer in a similar manner. Otherwise you may get into trouble.

Words have power because of their lasting influences. Many of us feel sorry for something we once said. And we remember unkind words said to us! Before speaking, we should always ask ourselves: Is it true? Is it loving? Is it needed? If what we want to say doesn’t pass this test, then it’s better left unsaid. Words have power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak positively. We can offer hope, build self-confidence and encourage others to do their best. Negative words destroy all those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to cure? The choice is ours. 1．There is no need for us to feel shy when we talk to ourselves because ________. A．almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves B．talking to ourselves always gives us courage

C．we may gain quite a few advantages of talking to ourselves D．it does no harm to have “self-talk” when we are alone

2．The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also ________ in time. A．remind ourselves B．praise ourselves C．make ourselves relaxed D．give ourselves fun

3．The writer would probably hold the view that ________. A．it is better to think twice before talking to others B．negative words may encourage us to make more progress C．people prefer to remember friendly words D．encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers

4．In which column(版面) of the newspaper can you most likely read this passage? A．News.

B．Nature.

C．Health.

F

D．Culture.

18、

How could we tell time if there were no watches or clocks anywhere in the world? The sun was probably the world’s first “clock”, except in the far north, where the Eskimos(爱斯基摩人) live. There, it’s dark most of the winter, and light most of the summer. But in most of the world, people have used the sun for a clock. Even today, if you don’t have a clock, you still know that when the sun shines, it’s day, and when it’s dark, it’s night. The sun can also tell you if it’s morning, noon, or afternoon.

People who live near the sea can tell time from the tides. In the daytime, for about six hours, the water rises higher and higher on the beach. And then it goes down and down for about six hours. The same thing happens again at night. There are two high tides and two low tides every 24 hours.

Seamen on a ship learn how to tell time by looking at the moon and the stars. The whole sky is their clock.

In some places in the world the wind comes up at about the same time every day or changes direction or stops blowing. In these places the wind can be the clock.

A sand clock is an even better clock. If you had fine dry sand in a glass shaped like the one in the picture, you would have what is called an hourglass. The sand in the hourglass goes from the top part to the bottom part in exactly one hour. When the hourglass is turned over, the sand will take another hour to go back again.

1．According to(根据) the passage, there are ____________ ways to tell time besides（除了）the clock and watch. A．3

B．4

Values reflect a person’s views of what’s right and wrong, as well as what’s important in one’s life. We teenagers are in the golden period of forming good values. We need adults’ right guidance. In my opinion, it’s extremely necessary for us to learn to be independent. Because we’ll leave our parents some day in the future. It’s impossible for us to depend on our parents forever. We can learn to do something new as well as making our own decisions. What’s more, it’s also important for us to learn to be helpful. Because helping others will make us feel happy. We should learn to help the people who are in trouble in our daily life. Only in this way can we form healthy values. What’s more, we’ll benefit from these healthy values all our life.

13、Some time ago I discovered that one of my chairs had a broken leg. I didn’t think there would be any difficulty in getting it repaired, as there are a lot of antique (古董) shops near my home. So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me. I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception(接待). I was quite wrong. The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.

The second shop, though slightly more polite, was just the same, and the third and the fourth--so I decided that my approach must be wrong.

I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind. I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper, “Would you like to buy a chair?” He looked it over carefully and said, “Yes, not a bad chair. How much do you want for it, sir?” “Twenty pounds,” I said. “OK,” he said, “I’ll give you twenty pounds.” “It’s got a slightly broken leg,” I said. “Yes, I saw that, it’s nothing.”

Everything was going according to my plan and l was getting excited. “What will you do with it?” I asked.

“Oh, it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.” “I’ll buy it,” I said. “What do you mean? You’ve just sold it to me,” he said. “Yes, I know but I’ve changed my mind. I am sorry. I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.” “You must be crazy,” he said. Then, suddenly the penny dropped. “I know what you want. You want me to repair your chair.” “You’re right,” I said. “And what would you have done if I had walked in and said, ‘Would you repair this chair for me?’” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it,” he said. “We don’t do repairs, not enough money in it and too much trouble. But I’II repair this for you. Shall we say for five

pounds?” He was a very nice man and was greatly amused by the whole thing. 1．We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer_______. A．was rather impolite B．was warmly received

C．asked the shopkeeper to buy his chair D．asked the shopkeeper to repair his chair 2．The expression \A．changed his mind B．accepted the offer

C．saw the writer’s purpose D．decided to help the writer 3．How much did the writer pay?

14、Fashion treadmill desks (跑步机办公室) might actually help improve job performance after employees get used to working while walking, according to new research.

A yearlong study of workers at a company St. Paul, Minn, found that the productivity of 40 treadmill users dropped at first because they were unable to master typing and operating a mouse while walking at a speed of up to two miles per hour.

But within four to six months, measures (测量) of performance-quality, the amount of work done, and the quality of interactions(互动) with workmates rose gradually, according to weekly surveys. At the end of the survey period, workers with treadmill desks improved their performance, which was 0.1 points higher than that before the project began.

For tasks like solving problems or taking conference calls, “ A little bit of walking is useful because it means there’s more blood flow to the brain,” said Avner Ben-Ner, a professor at the University of Minnesota’s Carlson School of Management and an author of the study. “ You get more oxygen (氧气) and it increases the ability to think .”

Treadmill desks have got attention because of research which showed the negative (负面的，消极的)effects of sedentary lifestyles and jobs that leave workers sitting all day. But data on the effectiveness of the desks has been relatively rare.

There are other downsides (不利方面) , as The Wall Street Journal wrote last year, including the possibility of falls and injuries.

Mr. Ben-Ner noted that treadmill users need some time to get used to the ergonomics (人体工程学) of walking while working, including the proper desk height. His team provided no training to employees, and he said that employers who provide such desks should offer help to get users comfortable on the machines. “This wouldn’t be very good for people who use a needle for their jobs,” he said. “ But everyone who does brain work knows that if you need fresh ideas, taking a walk helps.”

1．According to the passage, fashion treadmill desks offer users many advantages EXCEPT to_______.

A．improve their quality of work B．increase their amount of work

D．keep good relationships with workmates

C．make their health become better and better

2．Which of the following does Mr. Ben-Ner agree?

A．People can do different kinds of work when walking on treadmill. B．The treadmill desks are fit for people solving difficult problems. C．The more oxygen you get, the better your mood is. D．A little walk can make your brain work more actively.

3．The underlined part “sedentary “in Paragraph 6 probably means leading a life with ____________. A．much sitting

B．daily stress

C．no money

15、If they eat up their food, students can collect coupons (优惠券) and exchange them for small gifts, such as books, magazines, mobile phone covers and hand warmers.

“It’s been such a surprise,” said Liang Zhaoyun, a student at a university in Shanghai, “It has given us one moremotivationto finish our food.”

The action is part of a national “eat-up” campaign (行动) which is organized by students to deal with food waste on campuses (校园).

Why only on campuses? You might ask. Because according to a report by Xinhua News Agency, students waste twice as much food as the national average (平均).

The campaign on campus food waste is receiving attention across the country.

“The aim of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food. We hope it can also encourage students to choose a more environment —friendly and healthy lifestyle,” said Tao Siliang, Secretary of the Youth League Committee at Shanghai University.

Some school food doesn’t taste delicious, so students do not like to finish it all. Some schools have taken notice of this and they are taking actions to improve it.

“I’m glad that we’ve reduced food waste since the “eat-up” campaign began. But if we call on students to waste less food, we should also improve the service and food quality on campuses.” said Tao. 1．From Paragraph 1, we know that the students will get a coupon . A．when they eat school food B．after they exchange gifts C．if they finish all their food D．if they collect the waste 2．The underlined word “motivation” in Paragraph 2 means “ ”. A．condition B．power C．experiment D．chance

3．The “eat-up” campaign is carried out on campuses because . A．students waste too much food B．schools offer small gifts

D．great worry

C．students get a good education D．school food is more delicious 4．The purpose of the campaign is mainly to . A．improve the school food quality

B．further improve the service in universities C．receive attention from the society D．encourage a greener and healthier lifestyl
