  Old George bought the black gloves for just $35 ten years ago. They were made of lamb skin, soft and warm and very strong. Until then, he had worn cheaper man-made material. Those gloves never lasted longer than three years. He first decided to buy the expensive gloves, because they would make him feel nice in front of others.   George never let a drop of water or rain touch his expensive gloves, so they looked new. Losing this favorite thing was almost like losing a child to him.
  Bad luck! George lost his expensive gloves on New Year’s Day.
  In deep winter, he could not do anything without a pair of gloves. If he bought cheap ones again, he would have to replace (更换) them very soon. If he bought a new leather (皮革) pair, it would cost $50 now. He was upset that people no longer returned things they found on the road.
  After the holiday, poor George decided to buy another leather pair. Before boarding the subway, he went into Value Mart again to see if his gloves had been returned to the Lost and Found Office.
  “What colour are they?” the woman in the office asked again.

  The next time you sit down to a delicious dinner, ask yourself, “How much food will I be able to eat?” If you think about only taking as much food as you can eat, it will help you cut down waste.
  Every day, plenty of food goes uneaten and turn into rubbish. This is very sad when we consider that many people can’t even afford to have one meal every day. The problem of waste happens all over the world. People often want more than they really need.
  The most important thing for us to remember is to be friendly to the environment. Only take as much as you can eat, buy things in environmentally friendly packing such as paper or cardboard, and leave rubbish in its proper place. If every person could cut down waste, even just a little, the whole effect would be great.   Rubbish and waste can be a big problem in large cities, if rubbish or food is left in the streets in our city, it can make the city dirty and may also lead to a bad smell in the streets. We should try our best to solve this problem and make our city more beautiful. In this way, we will feel more comfortable living in the city.
  16.According to the passage, what problem happens all over the world?
  17. What is the key point of solving the problem?
  18.What can we do to be friendly to the environment?
  19.What will happen if we leave the rubbish or food in the streets in our city?

  Do you know why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their special colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
  Some birds like eating locusts (蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? Because locusts change their colors with the change of the colors of crops. When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are easily found. So they have to hide themselves for lives in the daytime and appear only at night.
  If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions, and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters, because they have the colors much like the trees.
  Have you ever noticed an even stranger act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid (液體) when in danger. While the liquid spreads over, its enemies cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.

  If you look into the sky at night, you may see something moving and shining that you have never seen before. It might be a comet (彗星). A comet sometimes looks like a star. Like a planet, a comet has no light of its own. It shines from the sunlight it reflects. Like the earth, a comet goes round the sun, but on a much longer path than the earth travels.
  Some scientists think that a large part of a comet is water frozen into pieces of ice. This is mixed with iron and rock dust and perhaps a few big pieces of rock. When the sun melts (融化) the ice in the comet, great clouds, together with the dust, forms a long tail. Many people have seen a comet. However, no one knows how many comets there are. There may be millions of comets, but only a few come close enough to the earth for us to see. Even then it’s not often that a comet comes close enough to be seen without a telescope (望遠镜).
  An English man named Edmund Halley, who lived from 1656 to 1742, found out a lot about the paths that comets take through the sky. Some comets never come back. Others keep coming back at regular intervals (有规律的间隔). A big comet that keeps returning was named after Halley because he was the one who worked out when it would come back again.
  Some people saw Halley’s Comet in 1910. Maybe you have ever seen Halley’s Comet because the last time it came close to the sun and the earth was in 1986. If not, you will probably wait for a long time.
  11. Which is TRUE about comets according to Paragraph 1?
  A. They travel on a shorter path than earth do.
  B. They are either stars or planets.
  C. They can shine by themselves.
  D. They travel around the sun.
  12. According to some scientists, a large part of a comet is ___ .
  A. rock           B. ice C. dust D. iron
  13. What did Halley find about the comets?
  A. The paths of them. B. The size of them.
  C. The weights of them. D. The return time of them.
  14. When may you be able to see Halley’s Comet?
  A. In 2022. B. In 2056.
  C. In 2062. D. In 2090.
  15. What can we learn from the passage?
  A. Halley died in the 17th century.
  B. Halley’s Comet looks like a star.
  C. Not many comets can be seen by people.
  D. Halley discovered a few paths that comets take.   D

  Students have to take tests. Sometimes, robots do too. Torobo from Japan is one of these robots.
  Torobo is a robot brain with two arms. It is part of a project called “Can a Robot Get into the University of Tokyo? ” A group of Japanese scientists started it in 2011.
  To go to the University of Tokyo, Torobo has to take Japan’s national college entrance exam. So in 2013, the robot started to take the test with Japanese students. Sadly, Torobo has failed the test every year. It couldn’t get a good enough score for the University of Tokyo. This year it was the same.
  Torobo has a big database (数据库). So it is good at knowledge and calculations (计算). That’s why it got high scores in physics, history and math. But Torobo is not good at thinking by itself. So it got low scores in language and writing.
  Scientists started the Torobo project to learn about the intellectual abilities (智能) of machines. Now after Torobo’s several years of hard work, they may have learned a lot.
  16. “Can a Robot Get into the University of Tokyo? ” was started in 2011.

  One pleasant evening, I was holding Grandpa’s hand and taking a walk in the park. “Where are the peanuts? Give me now!” He suddenly said. How I wished I had some with me! “William, the monkeys are taking long to come out today. Wait till they smell the peanuts (花生).” I knew he was lost in one of his memories again.

  Give your dead batteries (電池) a new life. Recycle them!
  Batteries are used to power clocks, computers, tools and more. However, your batteries have some serious power when their lives are over.
  WHY TO RECYCLE BATTERIES
  Remember, batteries are harmful waste. This means we should properly throw them away. You may not think one little battery can cause that much pollution. But don’t think of it as just one battery—there can be millions. In Canada, each person uses about 20 single-use batteries every year. That’s about 700 million batteries! If all these batteries end up in landfills (垃圾填埋场), the heavy metals inside them can get into the water, land and air. It can be harmful to humans and wildlife.
  By recycling single-use batteries instead of throwing them away, you can cut down pollution and also help save energy. All batteries are mainly made of plastic and valuable metals. Through recycling programs, dead batteries can be changed into something useful like steel products, or even new batteries!
  HOW TO RECYCLE BATTERIES
  Make a difference by starting to collect batteries at your home or school today.
  You can prepare a box for battery collection and invite friends, family and classmates to bring in old batteries to be recycled.
  There are many safe ways to deal with your batteries.
  You can:
  ● Find a Call to Recycle public collection station near you.
  ● Ask the store where you bought the batteries if you can return them there.
  ● Communicate with your local city government to find out if there are special programs for recycling used batteries!

  Nowadays, many children spend hours a day looking at computer screens or other digital (数字的) products. Some eye care doctors say all the screen time has caused more children to have what they call computer vision syndrome (视力综合征).
  Nathan Warford is an optometrist in the US. He says he has seen more children having eye problems. “More children come into my office because their parents have noticed that they have headaches or red eyes, or because their degree of short-sightedness appears to be increasing very fast and they’re worried,” he says.
  Dr Warford says part of the problem is that even if their eyes start to feel uncomfortable or they start to get a headache, some children don’t tell their parents because they don’t want their games or the computer taken away. Another part of the problem is that people blink (眨眼睛) less often when they look at the screen. A person who uses a computer or a digital product blinks about a third as much as we normally do in everyday life. If eyes can’t stay wet or are too tired, they will not be protected normally.

  A. They don’t think it is serious.
  B. Their parents don’t care about them.
  C. They don’t want their parents to worry.
  D. They want to continue playing on the screen.
  13. What can we learn from the passage?
  A. It’s useless to blink.
  B. Tears can’t protect eyes.
  C. Blinking is good for eyes.
  D. Children should blink as much as possible.
  14. When people use computers, they blink about           as they normally do.
  A. two thirds as much B. a third as much
  C. half as much D. as much
  15. What is the passage mainly about?

  For all the nights that were filled with worries: free.
  For the toys, food, clothes, and even cleaning your nose: free.
  Son, when you add it up, the full cost of my love is free.
  After the boy finished reading, there were tears in his eyes and he looked straight at his mother and said, “Mom, I sure do love you.” And then he took the pen and in great big letters he wrote, “PAID IN FULL.”

  Time Temp Glasses
  Do you want to know the time and temperature during the day? You might like Time Temp Glasses. These special glasses show the time above your right eye and the temperature above your left eye. It is surely easier than wearing a wristwatch, and you never have to guess the temperature.
  Alarm Fork
  Do you eat too quickly and too much? How can the Alarm Fork help you? Aren’t you curious? Well, this special fork has two lights: green and red. When the green is on, it’s OK to eat a piece of food. The fork “knows” when you eat a piece, and soon the red goes on. Wait for the green light before you eat another piece.
  Smell This
  So do you know if your breath smells nice, or if it smells bad? It’s difficult to know, because it’s very hard to smell the air that comes out of your own mouth. Smell This is useful for this situation. It tells whether your breath is nice, or you need a piece of gum (口香糖).   Banana Suitcase

  I’m Alice. One day last month, my friend Mary came to school wearing a new pair of Zee jeans. “Your new Zee jeans are so cute!” I said.
  “I went shopping with my grandma last weekend,” Mary said. “The Zee jeans were on sale. They have cool pockets and are unbelievably comfortable. When you’re at my house after school, try them on and see for yourself.”
  “Hmm.” I didn’t think so. But when I tried them on, I couldn’t help agreeing. As soon as I got home, I told my mom that I wanted to buy a pair of Zee jeans.
  Mom said, “Alice, you already have three pairs of good jeans. There is no way Dad and I are paying that much for another pair of jeans. If you want to buy them with your own money, I would be happy to make a long list of chores you can do.”
  “I’ll start this minute,” I said.
  It took me three weeks to save enough money. I took out the rubbish, took care of my little brother, and cleaned our washroom. The washroom cleaning was the worst. It took me one and a half hours to clean it up!
  Anyway, I finally bought my Zee jeans, and I loved them even more than I thought. I loved them half because they had cool pockets and super comfortable, and half because I have worked so hard to make the money to buy them myself.   6. Mary is Alice’s ___ .

  Music plays an important role in our daily life. But for some people, music is no fun at all. They have the illness that scientists call “amusia (失歌癥)”. People with amusia are born without the ability to enjoy music. They often cannot tell the differences between two songs. As a result, songs sound like noises to them.
  Life can be hard to people with amusia. In fact, most people cannot understand what it feels like—just going to a restaurant or a shopping center can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is why many people with amusia have to stay away from places where there is music. However, this can result in social loneliness. “I used to hate parties,” says Elizabeth, a 70-year-old woman who only recently discovered that she had amusia. By studying people like Elizabeth, scientists are finally learning how to identify (识别) this unusual condition.
  Scientists say that the brains of people with amusia are different from those that can enjoy music. The difference is complex, and it is not connected with poor hearing. People with amusia can understand other non-musical sounds well. They also have no problems understanding common speeches.
  Many people with amusia are happy when their condition is finally diagnosed (诊断). For years, Elizabeth felt embarrassed about her music problem. Now she knows that she is not alone. That makes it easier for her to explain. “When people invite me to a concert, I just say, ‘No, thanks, I have amusia,’”says Elizabeth.
  11. What can we know about people with amusia?
  A. They like music.
  B. They have poor listening.
  C. They don’t listen to music.
  D. They are born unable to enjoy music.
  12. Why is life hard for people with amusia?   A. Music seems to be noisy for them.
  B. Most people cannot understand them.
  C. They have to stay at places full of music.
  D. They hate parties, restaurant or shopping centers.
  13. Scientists identify people with amusia by .
  A. studying their behaviors
  B. going to parties regularly
  C. comparing music to colors
  D. studying different kinds of music
  14. Scientists think that people with amusia have .
  A. poor hearing B. different brains
  C. problems about colors D. problems with speech
  15. What is the text mainly about?
  A. Music ability.
  B. Music problems.
  C. Some people’s inability to enjoy music.

  Clothes Donation Box
  Have you ever put your old clothes into the donation (捐赠) box in your neighborhood? If not, you can do it right now because the clothes donation is becoming a trend (趋势) in Urumqi.
  “From time to time, my mother clears out the clothes which I no longer wear. You know, we teenagers are growing fast. I think it’s a good way to help others.” Lin Tao, a junior student says.
  “I often pick out some of my clothes which are out of style after going shopping. Then I’ll put them into the donation box.” Miss Li, a pretty young lady says.
  “That seems like a good idea. Some clothes in the box are quite new. People can either wear them or use them to make things such as handbags and pencil cases.” Mrs Wang, an old woman says, “Sometimes I also look through the box for some nice clothes.”
  However, there are some problems along with the popularity of clothes donation. Recently, a UTV reporter from “Focus on the City” has made a survey. Here are the results:
  The box is full of clothes in a short time. There is no more room for people to give away clothes.
  Some people sell the clothes in the donation box for making money instead of wearing them.
  Some communities set the box in unsuitable places. So there are few clothes in it.
  Many clothes are too old and shabby(破爛的).
  “What’s worse,” one of the staff in a community added, “We quite often see people throw rubbish into the box when they pass by. We’ve tried to stop them several times but failed.  It has been the most serious problem since we set the box.”
  In order to make the donation box work in an efficient (有效的) way, our government is taking action. Clothes donation will be better-organized and it’ll be more convenient for people in need to take the clothes away.   16. Why does Miss Li give away her clothes?
  17.What can people do with some clothes which are quite new in the box?
  18.What has been the most serious problem since the box was set?
  19. How many problems has the reporter from UTV collected?
  20. What is the government trying to do with clothes donation?

  It was Mother’s Day. John was so busy with his work that he couldn’t go back home. When he passed by a flower shop in the evening, an idea came to his mind. “I’ll send Mum some roses (玫瑰).”
  While John was picking his flowers, a young man went inside. “How many roses can I get for only five dollars, Madam?” he asked. The salesgirl told him roses were as expensive as forty dollars a dozen (一打). Maybe he would be happy with carnations (康乃馨). She told him they were much cheaper than roses.   “No, I have to have red roses,” he said, “My mum was badly ill last year and I didn’t spend much time with her. Now I want to get something special. It has to be roses. Roses are her favorite.”
  After hearing this, John said he would pay the rest of the money for the young man. Moved by both of them, the salesgirl said, “Well, lovely young men, thirty dollars a dozen, only for you two.” Taking the roses, the young man jumped with joy. He thanked John, and ran out of the shop. It was well worth twenty-five dollars John paid to see the exciting moment. Then John paid for his dozen of roses and told the salesgirl to send them to his mother.
  As he walked out, he felt nice. Suddenly he saw the young man crossing the street and going into a park. But soon he realized it was not a park but a cemetery (墓地). Crying, the young man carefully laid the roses, “Mum, oh, Mum, why didn’t I tell you how much I loved you? God, please help me find my mum and tell her I love her.”

  The undersea world is very beautiful. Now more and more people want to dive in the water to find the secret there. Scuba diving (水肺潛水) is a new sport today. It can take you into a wonderful undersea world.
  You will find many strange animals in the sea. Some are as large as a school bus. Many sea animals give out light in the dark and some have sharp teeth.
  During the day, there is enough light. Here, under the sea, everything is blue and green.   When fish swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands. When you have bottles of air on your back, you can stay in deep water for a long time. However, you can’t dive too deep. And you must be very careful when you dive in deep water.
  The deep sea is not an easy place to live in. It’s cold, and it’s dark, too. The deeper it is, the less sunlight there is. About 3,000 feet, there is no light at all. It is very dark in the sea. Many fishes have no eyes. Some have big eyes. A few have eyes on one side.
  Besides the cold and the darkness, deep-sea animals face a third danger—other animals. Animals eat! They must find food to eat. Many animals eat plants. However, some animals eat meat. This means these sea animals have two big jobs. They need to find animals as food, and they have to try not to become other animals’ meal.
  11. Why do people want to dive in the sea?
  A. To catch fish.
  B. To see how deep the sea is.

  根据短文内容,判断正(T)误(F)。
  A famous teacher was speaking to the students at our school. He began his lesson by holding up a $100 bill. Then he said to the three hundred students, “Who would like this $100 bill?” The students began to put up their hands at once. Then he said, “I am going to give this $100 to one of you, but first, let me do this.” He then made the bill into a ball. Then he said, “Who wants it now?” The hands went back into the air. “Well,” he said, “what if I do this?” He dropped it on the floor and stepped on it. He picked up the dirty, crumpled (變皱的) bill and said, “Who still wants it?” The hands went back into the air. “My friends,” he said, “you have learned a valuable lesson today. No matter what I did to the money, you still wanted it because it did not go down in value.”Many times in our lives, we are dropped, crumpled, and stepped on by the chances we take and the things that happen to us. We feel as if we are worth nothing. But remember, no matter what has happened to you, you will never lose your value: you are always valuable to those people who love you. Your value doesn’t come from what you do or whom you know, but who you are.   16. “The hands went back into the air” means “The students put up their hands again”.
  17. The teacher used the bill in order to make the students know what value was.
  18. Even though it was dirty, the bill was still valuable.
  19. Your value comes from what you do, not from who you are.
  20. We are always valuable to the people who love us.

  The story happened during the Second World War. An old man lived in a small town of Germany. He had three sons and they all worked in the same factory where he had worked. After the war began, his sons were all made to join the army one after another and they all died in the battle. The old man was very sad. He didn’t have enough food and was often hungry. Nobody helped him and he didn’t know how to go on living.   It was a very cold winter night. The old man couldn’t go to sleep. He had been hungry for two days and it was so cold in his room that ice could be seen. He had to get up and begin to run in the room until he lay down on the ground. The next morning he had to beg from door to door. He had been to a lot of cities ever since.
  Once he came to a village, but the villages were all poor and couldn’t give him anything. He was too hungry to go to another village. He thought hard and found a way. He came to a police station and called out, “Hitler is a foolish pig!”
  Out came an old policeman at once. He took the old man into a room, gave him some bread and a cup of tea. Then he said, “Don’t say that in our village, sir!”
  “I’m sorry, sir,” said the old man, “I don’t know it’s Hitler’s hometown.”

  What are you holding in your hand while you are taking the examination? Right. A pen.
  Though it is small, the pen has changed the history, improved the trade of countries, recorded events, carried news, and done far more work for human beings than all other tools.
  Progress without it would have been almost impossible. The invention of the wheels, the introduction of steam engine (蒸汽機), the use of electricity—all these have changed the lives of millions of people, but the pen has done more. It has taken away mountains, and it has prepared the way for all progress and development of the society.
  In the past the pen did all the work if you wanted to keep any writing for some time. The lawyers took up their pens and wrote the law of the country from the days when papyrus (纸莎草纸) was first used. The most famous letters in the world were written with a pen. It was with a pen that the greatest thinkers of all time wrote down their thoughts.   The pen is very utilitarian. We cannot sign a bill or write a letter or buy a house without our pen. An agreement is worthless till our name is written with a pen. The writers encourage the world with it. The students take their examinations with it as well.
  Our coming into the world is recorded with a pen. Before we have been at school, our name is written on the name list with a pen. We cannot be married till we have signed. A pen records the important events in our life.
  Let us remember that we hold in our hand the most powerful instrument which man owns. The pen is a magic tool. Whenever you use it, enjoy it.

  Every year since 1996, on the last Monday of the last week in March, the National Day of Education on the Safety of Elementary and Middle School Students (全国中小学生安全日) is held. This year it falls on March 29. It offers us a chance to learn more rules about school safety.
  A survey (调查) shows that the worst accidents were a result of stampedes (踩踏), fires and traffic. Experts suggest that right safety ways could avoid 80% of these accidents.
  When facing an accident, the first and most important rule is to stay calm. But different accidents mean different ways of dealing with them.
  A stampede happens easily in a place where a lot of people are gathered. When students around you begin to push, stand still (不动的) and hold onto something or stay in a corner.
  发生火灾时,要保持冷静,听从老师的指示。Leave the classroom and use a piece of cloth to cover your mouth and nose so that you don’t breathe in smoke.
  If you take a school bus on your way home or to school, remember to fasten (系牢) your seat belt and don’t walk around when it is moving. If you walk to school or go by bike, follow traffic rules. Wait for the green traffic light, and look left and right for cars before you cross the road.
  16.从文中找出与下面所给句子意思相同的句子。
  According to a study, the worst accidents were caused by stampedes, fires and traffic.
  17.What is the first and most important rule when facing an accident?
