A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present.On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office, a street urchin (顽童)was walking around the shining car.“Is this your car, Paul?” he asked.

Paul answered, “Yes, my brother gave it to me for Christmas.” The boy was surprised.“You mean your brother gave it to you and it cost you nothing? Boy, I wish„” He hesitated.

Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for.He wished he had a brother like that.But what the boy said surprised Paul greatly.

“I wish,” the boy went on, “that I could be a brother like that.” Paul looked at the boy in surprise, and then he said again, “Would you like to take a ride in my car?” “Oh yes, I’d love that.”

After a short ride, the boy turned and with his eyes shining, said, “Paul, would you mind driving in front of my house?”

Paul smiled a little.He thought he knew what the boy wanted.He wanted to show his neighbors that he could ride home in a big car.But Paul was wrong again.“Will you stop where those two steps are?” the boy asked.

He ran up to the steps.Then in a short while Paul heard him coming back, but he was not coming fast.He was carrying his little crippled (残疾) brother.He sat him down on the step and pointed to the car.

“There she is, Buddy, just like I told you upstairs.His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn’t cost him a cent.And some day I’m going to give you one just like it„ Then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Christmas window that I’ve been trying to tell you about.”

When I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called \"Brownie\". My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.

One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up (咬破) one of my Dad's shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl,” she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.

Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she'd let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we'd be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is that she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone. Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss the days when she was with us.

25. What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family?

A. Look at them sadly. B. Stay with them .

C. Play games with them. D. Touch them gently.

26. We can infer from Paragraph 2 that Brownie ________.

A. would eat anything when hungry B. felt sorry for her mistake

C. loved playing hide-and-seek D. disliked the author's dad

27. Some people got frightened by Brownie when she ________.

A. smiled B. barked

C. rushed to them D. tried to be funny 28. Which of the following best describes Brownie?

A. Shy B. Polite

C. Brave D. Caring

Did you know that a turtle(乌龟)can lay 12 eggs in one minute? A large sea turtle lays around 150 eggs at a time. She lays all these eggs in just a few minutes..

Large sea turtles live in the warm seas of the world. Except when they lay their eggs, they spend their whole lives in the water. When it is time to lay their eggs, the females swim to land..

They usually return to the place where they themselves were born. How they find their way back there is unknown. When they reach shore, the big, heavy turtles crawl slowly up to the high water mark. Using their flippers(脚蹼), they pull themselves along the sand. They must struggle like mountain climbers. When they finally reach dry sand, they rest before beginning the difficult task of laying eggs. The turtles lay the eggs in deep holes and cover them with warm sand. The sand protects the eggs from harm. Then the females leave them. After a few weeks, if you happened to be walking along the beach, you might see the sand begin to shake. You may see tiny black balls coming out of the sand. The tiny heads of baby turtles!

29. The first sentence lets us know that this passage is about _________. A. turtles B. oceans C. time D. speed 30. Turtles bury their eggs to protect them from __________.

A. deep water B. heat C. danger D. bad weather 31. We can conclude from this passage that __________. A. many turtles die while swimming to shore B. female turtles protect their babies

C. once turtles land, they never return to the sea D. the job of laying eggs takes great strength

32. The writer compares turtles to climbers __________. A. because they lay their eggs in mountain areas B. to tell you that they like to climb

C. to give you a picture of how hard they work

D. to show that mountain climbers are as slow as turtles

D

Have you ever felt that you want more friends? Have you found that you don’t know how to make friends? Don’t worry. It’s easier than it looks.

Start with small actions. If you’re uncomfortable with long conversations with people, start by just saying “hi” and asking what the person is doing. Even if you do more listening than talking in the beginning, people will usually still like you. When it comes to conversations, remember “F.O.R.”. It stands for family, occupation(职业) and recreation

(休闲). You are most likely to be asked about these three topics when you meet someone new. Most people feel comfortable talking about the three topics. The great thing is that you also can communicate with someone new in these three areas.

Honesty is the best policy. In friendship, “honesty” is the basic quality that one must have. One should always be honest with his or her friends. Don’t laugh at people’s fault. Praise them honestly and openly. Say you are sorry if you hurt your friend.

Give more than you take. Be there when they need you, Encourage them; we all need encouragement now and then. Encourage their dreams. Life seems meaningless without them. Wish your friends good luck. Examine your purpose before you “help out”. Love and never forget them. 33. The writer thinks making friends is _________.

4

A. easy B. difficult C. funny D. interesting 34. What can you ask when you meet people?

A. How old are you? B. What do you do?

C. How much do you earn each month? D. What’s your attitude towards politics?

35. Which would be the best title for this passage?

A. Where to Meet Friends? B. What Is a Friend Indeed?

C. How to Make Friends? D. Everyone Needs Friends

36 Many students feel stressed around big moments in their lives like during final exams or when applying to college. Stress can be a pretty dangerous thing, because it can cause you to become sick. Here are some ways to cope with stress:

Laugh Laughter is really one of the best medicines. When things get stressful, do things that make you laugh. Watch a funny movie. 37 Chat with friends and family.

Sleep Sleep is another great tool in reducing stress. 39 You should be getting at least 6 to 8 hours of sleep each night. As you know, a lack of sleep can be bad for your health.

Dear Editor,

The students in our class had a discussion about whether the only way for senior high students to succeed is to go to college.

75% of the students thought it necessary to go to college, for college education can increase their knowledge and improve their personal qualities as well. However, 15% of the students thought that it is no use going to college because it’s extremely difficult for college graduates to get satisfactory jobs. In addition, the tuition is too high for their families to pay for. The remaining 10% held the view that “All roads lead to Rome.” Therefore, they thought it doesn’t make any difference whether they go to college or not.

In my opinion, it’s a better choice to go to college because we can receive more education. But if we are unable to enter college, there are many other choices for us, and we can still contribute to society.

Yours sincerely Li Hua
