A friend of mine was fond of drawing horse.He drew the horses very well,but he always began the tail.Now it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse, that is why I was surprised.It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly（肚子）or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business.And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people’s rule.They make their own rules.Every one of them does his work in a way peculiar(奇特的)to himself;and the peculiarity means only that he finds it more easy to work in that way.Now the very same thing is true to literature(文学).And the question, “How shall I begin?” only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else.That is, you are not yet experienced(有经验的)enough to trust to your own powers.When you become more experienced you will
never ask the question, and I think that you will often begin at the tail--that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.1.A friend of the writer’s drew the horses ____.A.very well
B.in the way of western rule

2.The writer was surprised because ____.A.the artist began to draw at the head of the horse
B.the artist began to draw at the tail of the horse
C.the artist made his own rule
D.the artist did not follow other people’s rule
3.You are not yet experienced because ____.A.you don’t know where to begin
B.you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail
C.you always asked question
D.you do not trust to your own powers
4.When you become more experienced you will ____.A.never ask question
B.often begin at the tail
C.should write the end of the story

Dear editor(编辑)，I live in a beautiful city.Many visitors come to my city.there are so many colorful peacocks(孔雀)here.The peacocks mostly live on the grass land of Dongfeng Square

We know mosquitoes very well.Mosquitoes fly everywhere.They can be found almost all over the world, and there are more than 2,500 kinds of them.No one likes the mosquito.But the mosquito may decide if she loves you.She? Yes, she.The male mosquito doesn’t bite!Only the female mosquito bites because she needs blood to lay eggs.She is always looking for things or people she wants to bite.If she likes what she finds, she bites.But if she doesn’t like your blood, she will turn to someone else for more delicious blood.Next time a mosquito bites you, just remember you are chosen.You’re different from the others!
If the mosquito likes you, she lands on your body without letting you know.She bites you so quickly and quietly that you may not feel anything different.After she bites, you will have an itch(痒)on your body because she puts something from her mouth together with your blood.When the itch begins, she has flown away.And then what happens? Well, after her delicious dinner, the mosquito feels tired.She wants to find a place to have a good rest.There, in a tree or on a wall, she begins to lay eggs, hundreds of eggs.()51.All the people don’t like mosquitoes.()52.All mosquitoes like to bite people for blood.()53.If a mosquito wants to bite you, it means she is very tired.()54.The mosquito bites you too quickly and quietly to let you know.()55.The itch begins after the mosquito flies away.51-55 FFFTT(12)
Do you know why different animals or pests(昆虫)have their special colours? Colours in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Some birds like eating locusts(蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them.Why? It is because locusts change their colours together with the change of the colours of crops(庄稼).When crops are green, locusts look green.But as the harvest(收获)time comes, locusts change to the same brown colour as crops have.Some other pests with different colours from plants are easily found and eaten by others.So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of colouring is to protect themselves.Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests.They cannot be easily seen by hunters.This is because they have the colours much like the trees.Have you ever found an even more strange act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid(液体)when it faces danger.While the liquid spreads over(散开), its enemies(敌
人)cannot find it.And it immediately swims away.So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.()56.From the passage we learn that locusts________.A.are small animals
B.are easily found by birds
C.are dangerous to their enemies
D.change their colours to protect themselves
()57.How can pests with different colours from plants keep out of danger?

C.they like brown and grey colours D.they live in forests
()59.Why can the kind of fish live up to now? A.Because it is very big and strong.Because the liquid it sends out can help it escape from its enemies.B.Because the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies.C.Because it swims faster than any other fish.()60.Which is the best title for this passage? A.The Change of Colours for Animals and Pests.B.Colours of Different Animals and pests.C.The Main Use of Colours for Animals and Pests.D.Some Animals and Pests.56-60 D C A B C

一、What are you going to do if you are in a burning house？ How will you escape？ Do you know how to save yourself？ Please read the following passage.Escaping a fire is a serious matter.Knowing what to do during a fire can save you life.It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family，such as stairways and fire escapes，but not lifts.From the lower floors of the buildings，escaping through windows is possible，learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury.The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground.An average person，hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground.It is about the height of an average man.Of course，it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help.Be sure to keep the door closed.Or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room.Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may leaked（渗）into the room.On a second or third floor，the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof.From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely.Dropping onto cement（水泥）might end in injury.Bushes（灌木丛）and grass can help to break a fall.1.It is important to _______.A.put out the fire in the burning house B.know the ways to escape the fire

二、Napoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana，Africa.It is hard for her family to get clean water.Every morning，she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away.It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking.She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends.Millions of people in the world are like Napoga.They can't get enough clean water to keep healthy.Earth Day is April 22.But on all other days，we must also remember it.The water we use is the most important natural resourceon the earth.Water covers 70% of the earth's surface。But most of that is sea water.We can't use it for very many things.Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth's surface.You probably feel lucky that your life isn't as hard as Napoga's.But that doesn't mean you don't have to worry about water.We all face serious water problems.One of them is water pollution.All kinds of things from cars，factories，farms and homes make our rivers，lakes，and oceans dirty.Polluted water is very bad for people to drink.And dirty water is bad for fish，too.Now，34% of all kinds of fish are dying out.How do cars and factories make our water dirty？ First，they pollute the air.Then，when it rains，the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty.Dirty rain，called acid rain，is also bad for plants，animals and buildings.Scientists say that in 30 years，more than half of the people in the world won't have enough clean water.We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children.Here is some advice for saving water：
Turn off the water while you brush your teeth.You can save as much as 450 liters each month.Leaky taps（漏水的龙头）waste a lot of water.Fix them right away！
You can easily cut your 10-minute showers（沐浴）in half-and you'll be just as clean.When you wash dishes，don't let the water run.Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash.If your washing machine isn't full，you're wasting water！

3.Acid rain _______.A.is only bad for living things
B.can be produced in factories
C.doesn't do harm to people，but it's bad for plants，animals and buildings

“Pardon？” said the salesman.“My brother Andrew has something bad growing in-side his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him.So how much does a miracle cost？” “We don't sell a miracle here，child.I'm sorry，” the salesman said with a smile.“Listen，if it isn't enough，I can try and get some more.Just tell me how much it costs.”
A well-dressed man heard it and asked，“What kind of a miracle does your brother need？”
“I don't know，” she answered with her eyes full of tears.“He's really sick and mum says he needs an opera-tion.But my daddy can't pay for it，so I have brought all my money.”
“How much do you have？” asked the man.“$ 1.11，but I can try and get some more，” she answered.“Well，what luck，” smiled the man.“$ 1.11，the price of a miracle for little brothers.”
He took up the girl's hand and said，“Take me to where you live.I want to see your brother and meet your parents.Let's see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”
That well-dressed man was Dr Carlton Armstrong，a famous doctor.The operation was successful and it wasn't long before Andrew was home again.How much did the miracle cost？

四、Waste can be seen everywhere in the school.Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom.They say they can afford these things.But I don't agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems.Although China is rich in some resources（资源），we are short of（缺乏）others，for example，fresh water（淡水）。It is reported that we will have no coal（煤）or oil to use in 100 years.So if we go on wasting our resources，what can we use in the future and where can we move？ Think about it.I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day.Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life，we can do many things to prevent waste from happening，for example，turn off the water taps（水龙头）when we finish washing，turn off the lights when we leave the classroom，try not to order more food than we need，and so on.Little by little，everything will be changed.Waste can be stopped one day，if we do our best.1.From the passage we know that some students often _______ in the school.A.eat too much B.don't work hard

五、“Well，we're in our new house.Let's get a new pet to get along with it，” Mrs Brown said to her husband.“That sounds like a pretty good idea，” he answered.“Do you want to see the ads in the newspaper？”
“Let's go to the animal shelter.Many pets there need homes.Since tomorrow is Saturday，we can both go，” she said.Next morning the Browns met Mr Snow at the animal shelter.“We want to be sure that the pets here go to good homes，” Mr Snow said，“So I need to ask you some questions.”
After they talked for a while，the Browns decided to get a small dog.It wouldn't need a big house or a big yard.A small dog would bark（吠）and warm them if someone tried to break into their house.After Mr Snow gave the Browns a book on pet care，they chose one and wanted to take her home right away.But the animal doctor hadn't checked her yet.So Mr Snow told them to return on Sunday.On Sunday afternoon the Browns went to the animal shelter.The animal doctor said，“Shadow has had all of her shots（预防针）。She will be healthy.” The browns thanked the doctor and took Shadow home.1.From the reading we learn that _______.A.the Browns have never had a pet before.B.the Browns knew about Shadow from the newspaper.C.Shadow is a small and healthy dog.D.Mr Brown didn't quite agree with his wife.2.The word shelter in the reading means _______.A.a place to sell small dogs

五、Now satellites are helping to forecast（预报）the weather.They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world.The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）.They send these pictures to the weather stations.So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world.From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures.When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare（比较）them with earlier ones.Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours.This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too.In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists.Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours.Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days.Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.1.Satellites travel _____________.A.in space B.in the atmosphere

The people standing around were very sorry for the girl.They were silent for a while.Then a gentleman came up to the mailman and paid the postage for Alice‟s letter.When the gentleman gave her the letter, she said with a smile, “Oh, thank you very much, sir.This letter is from the young man I‟m going to marry.His name is Tom.He went to London to look for work.He has to get enough money for our marriage(结婚).I‟ve waited a long time for this letter, but now don‟t need it.I don‟t have to open the envelope because there is nothing inside.”

七、Typhoons(台风)in the northern part of the world have girls‟ names.Sometimes they have very beautiful names.Rose is a pretty name but there was nothing pretty about Typhoon Rose.It was the worst typhoon to hit Hong Kong in ten years.It began to rain in the morning of Monday, August 16th, 1971.At ten o‟clock in the morning, Typhoon Rose was still 130 miles away but already the wind was blowing people‟s umbrella away.The wind became stronger and stronger.The typhoon shelters(避风港)were soon full of boats.Ships that were too big to go inside the shelters put down more anchors(锚).Some very big shops went out to sea.It is safer for a big shop to be at sea in a typhoon because it cannot be blown onto rocks.Kai Tak Airport closed.No planes were able to take off or land.At 9:00 in the evening, all the lights went out.No one slept well that night.It is difficult to sleep in such bad weather.In Typhoon Rose, more than one hundred people died.229 people were hurt and 66 of these had to go to hospital.1500 lost their homes.The people of Hong Kong will not quickly forget Typhoon Rose!

十、If you get into the forest with your friends, stay with them always.If you don‟t, you may get lost.If you really get lost, this is what you should do.Sit down and stay where you are.Don‟t try to find your friends—let them find you by staying in one place.There is another way to help your friends or other nearby people to find you.Give them a signal(信号)by shouting or whistling(吹口哨)three times.Any signal given three times is a call for help.Keep up shouting or whistling always three times together.When people hear you, they will know that you are not just making noise for fun.They will let you know that they have heard your signal.They give you two shouts, two whistles, or two gun-shots(枪声).When someone gives you a signal, it is an answer to a call for help.If you don‟t think that you will get help before night comes, try to make a little house---cover up to the holes with branches(树枝)with lots of leaves.Make yourself a soft bed with leaves and grass.What should you do if you get hungry or need drinking water?

一、If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak;when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again.Everybody knows that.Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it.When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错).But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault.Have you ever found that some people can‟t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write them down in a little notebook.They have to remember days, names, songs and stories;so their memory is the whole time being exercised.So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering.1.The main reason for one‟s poor memory is that _________.A.his father or mother may have a poor memory
B.he does not use his arms or legs for some time
C.his memory is not often used
D.he can‟t read or write
2.If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, ______.A.you can‟t use them any more
B.they will become stronger

3.Which of the following in NOT true?
A.Don‟t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory.B.Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don‟t give it enough chance for practice.C.Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.D.A good memory comes from more practice.4.Some people can‟t read or write, but they usually have better memories, because ______.A.they have saved much trouble
B.they have saved much time to remember things
C.they have to use their memories all the time
D.they can‟t write everything in a little notebook
5.The best title for this passage _________.A.Don‟t Stop Using Your Arms Or Legs

二、When you are ill, you must be unhappy because your body becomes hot, and there are pains all over.You don‟t want to work.You stay in bed, feeling terrible.What makes you ill? It is germs(细菌).Germs are everywhere.They are very small and you can‟t see them with your eyes, but you can find them with a microscope.They are very small and there could be hundreds of them on or in a very small thing.Germs are always in dirty water.When you look at dirty water under a microscope, you will see them in it.So your parents will not let you drink dirty water.Germs are found not only in dirty water, they are also found in air and dust.If you cut your finger, and if some of the dust goes into the finger, it will become big and red, and you will have much pain in it.Sometimes they will go into your body and you will have pain everywhere.1.The writer thinks that you‟ll _____ when you are ill.A.feel hot B.not want to work C.not feel happy D.A, B and C

三、Is there anything more important than health? I don't think so.“Health is the greatest wealth(财富),” wise people say.You can't be good at your studies or work well when you are ill.If you have a headache, toothache, backache, earache or bad pain in the stomach, if you complain of a bad cough, if you run a high temperature and have a bad cold, or if you suffer from high or low blood pressure(血压), I think you should go to the doctor.The doctor will examine your throat, feel your pulse, test your blood pressure, take your temperature, sound your heart and lungs, test your eyes, check your teeth or have your chest X-rayed.After that, he will advise some treatment, or some medicine.The only thing you have to do is to follow his advice.Speaking about doctor‟s advice, I can't help telling you a funny story.An old gentleman came to see the doctor.The man was very ill.He told the doctor about his weakness, memory loss and serious problems with his heart and lungs.The doctor examined him and said there was no medicine for his disease.He told his patient to go to a quiet place for a month and have a good rest.He also advised him to eat a lot of meat, drink two glasses of red wine every day and take long walks.In other words, the doctor advised him to follow the rule: “Eat at pleasure, drink with measure and enjoy life as it is.” The doctor also said that if the man wanted to be well again, he shouldn't smoke more than one cigarette a day.A month later the gentleman came into the doctor‟s office.He looked much more cheerful and much happier.He thanked the doctor and said that he had never felt a healthier man.“But you know, doctor,” the man went on saying, “it's not easy to begin smoking at my age.”

四、Do you love the holidays, but hate the increase(增加)in weight(体重)that follows? You are not alone.Holidays are happy days with pleasure and delicious foods.But many people are worried about the weight that comes with these delicious foods.With proper(合适的)planning, it is possible to control your weight.The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much.You don‟t have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy.The following advice may be of some help to you.Do not miss meals.Before you leave home for a party, have a small, low-fat meal or fast food.This may help you to keep you from getting too excited before the delicious foods.Begin with clear soup and fruit or vegetables.A large glass of water before you eat may help you feel full.Use a small plate;a large plate may make you eat more than enough.Better not have high-fat foods.Choose lean(瘦的)meats.Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables.If you have a sweet tooth, try mints(薄荷)and fruits.They do not have fat like cream and chocolate.Don‟t let exercise take a break during the holidays.A 20-minute walk after a meal can help you burn off excess calories(多余的热量).1.Holidays are happy days with pleasure but they may ______.A.bring weight problems B.bring you much trouble in your life

五、Building a house costs quite a lot of money.Suppose you plan to build a house.Your first step will be to find a right piece of land.Your choice(选择)will depend on many different things.You will probably try to find a sunny place, with pleasant surroundings(环境)near shops and bus stops, not too far from your friends and the place where you work.Next you will find a good builder, and together with the builder you will work out a plan.The builder will draw the plan.It will show the number of rooms, their position and size, and other parts, which must be noticed, such as windows, doors, and electric outlets.The builder will work out how much money is needed to build your house.He will work out the cost of the wood, bricks, the glass, and everything else that must be used in building the house.Later on, when he starts to build, this estimate(预算)must be corrected and revised(修订).His estimate is based on existing prices, but prices of such things may change, and many other things may happen between the time when he makes the estimate and the time when he builds the house.When the builder gives his estimate, you may wish to change your plan.(You may also wish to change your builder, if his estimate is too high!)You may find that the house you wanted at first costs too much, or that you can spend a little more and add something to your plan.The builder's estimate depends on the plan, but the final plan depends on the builder's estimate.1.The best title of this passage is ___________.A.Building a House Costs Much Money B.Estimate Is Important

六、Hundreds of years ago, life was harder than it is today.People didn‟t have modern machines.There was no modern medicine, either.Life today has brought new problems.One of the biggest is pollution.Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty.It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water.Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily.Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution to all living things in the world.Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day.Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a quilt(被状物)over a city.This kind of quilt is called smog.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution.Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away, and they mustn‟t let dirty smoke go into the air.We need to do many other things.We can put waste things in the dustbin and do not throw them on the ground.We can go to work by bus with our friends in the same car.If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.Rules are not enough.Every person must help to fight pollution.1.Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today because _______.A.there were not modern machines B.there was no modern medicine

八、For many people the subject of hiccups(嗝)is a joke, but for Harry Mendes, a fifteen-year-old schoolboy from Birmingham, it was something quite different.His hiccups began one Sunday lunchtime and continued day and night for two weeks.After the first week, Harry's parents took him to hospital, but it took another week for the doctors to cure his attack.Harry, who is now back at school, described what happened to him.“When I began to hiccup, I drank a glass of water but that didn't do any good.That evening I had hiccups every four seconds.We tried everything to stop them.I held my breath and drank cold drinks.My father even tried to give me a shock but that didn't work either.”
After a week of sleepless nights, he went to hospital.The doctors took an X-ray of his chest but they couldn't find anything wrong.“They gave me some medicine and my hiccups slowed down, but it was another week before the medicine worked completely and my hiccups stopped.”

二、I often dreamed about Pisa when I was a boy.I read about the famous building called the Leaning Tower of Pisa.But when I read the word Pisa, I was thinking of pizza.I thought this tower was a place to buy pizza.It must be the best place to buy pizza in the world, I thought.Many years later I finally saw the Leaning Tower.I knew then that it was Pisa and no pizza.But there was still something special about it for me.The tower got its name because it really did lean to one side.Some people want to try to fix it.They are afraid it may fall over and they don‟t like it leans over the city.I do not think it‟s a good idea to try to fix it.The tower probably will not fall down.It is 600 years old.Why should anything happen to it now? And, if you ask me, I like what it looks like.To me it is a very human kind of leaning.Nothing is perfect.It seems to say.And who cares? Why do people want things to be perfect? Imperfect things may be more interesting.Let‟s take the tower in Pisa.Why is it so famous? There are many other older, more beautiful towers in Italy.But Pisa tower is the most famous.People come from all over the world to see it.1.This passage is about_______.A.Italian pizza B.Italy‟s problems
C.How the Leaning Tower of Pisa got its name D.Why the writer likes Pisa
2.The writer used to think Pisa______.A.in Spain B.not very famous C.not the same as pizza D.the same as pizza

三、Strange things happen to time when you travel because the earth is divided(划分)into twenty-four zones(时区), one hour apart(一个时区相差一个小时).You can have days with more or fewer than twenty-fours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.If you make a five-day trip across the Atlantic Ocean(大西洋), your ship enters a different time zone every day.As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour.Traveling west, you set your clock back, traveling east, you set it ahead.Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours.If you travel by ship across the Pacific Ocean(太平洋), you cross the International Date Line(国际日期变更线).By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins.When you cross the line, you change your calendar one full day, backward or forward.Traveling east, today becomes yesterday.Traveling west, it is tomorrow.1.Strange things happen to time when you travel because ______.A.no day really has twenty-four hours B.no one knows where time zones begin

四、Some British and American people like to invite friends and colleagues for a meal at home.You should not be upset(心烦意乱)if your English friends don‟t invite you home.It doesn‟t mean they don‟t like you.Dinner parties usually start between 7 and 8 p.m., and end at about 11.Ask your hosts what time you should arrive.It‟s polite to bring flowers, chocolates or a bottle of wine as a present.Do you want to be extra(特别地)polite? Say how much you like the room, or the pictures on the wall.But remember—not to ask how much things cost.You‟ll probably start the meal with soup, or something small as a “starter”(酵母), then you‟ll have meat or fish with vegetables, and then a dessert(甜食), followed by coffee.It‟s polite to finish everything on your plate and to take more if you want it.Some people eat bread with their meal, but not everyone does.Before they take out their cigarettes after the meal, most people usually ask, “Do you mind if I smoke here?”

Call your hosts the next day, or write them a short “thank you” letter.Perhaps it seems funny to you, but British and American people say, “thank you, thank you, and thank you.” all the time.1.If your English or American friends don‟t invite you to dinner at home, ______.A.it shows they don‟t like you B.B.it shows they have no time to get together

五、Are you carrying too much on your back at school? You‟re not alone.Back experts in the United States are worried that young students are having back and neck problems as a result of carrying too much in their backpacks(schoolbags).“It hurts my back when I run,” said Oberlin Reyes, a student in Virginia.“It‟s hard to get up the stairs with my backpack, because it‟s too heavy.”
Oberlin is among students whose backpacks were weighed for a week in a recent study.They had regular backpacks with two straps(带子)to carry them, but a number of students with heavy loads had switched to rolling backpacks(which have wheels and can roll on the ground).Shirley Park, whose backpack weighed 10 kilograms, said she changed to a rolling backpack because she was starting to have back pain.How much is too much? Experts say students should carry no more than 10 to 15 percent of their own body weight.A few students had one suggestion to lighten the load: less homework.P.S.(附)Doctor‟s suggestion:
① Lighten the load.Clean out binders(活页材料)and take home only the books you need that night.② Wide straps are better.They send out the weight over your shoulders more evenly(均匀).And be sure to wear both straps rather than hanging the pack over one shoulder.③ Pack smart.The heavier things should be packed closed to the back.④ Bend both knees when you pick up the pack, and don‟t just bend over at the waist(腰).1.“_____” is the main idea of the text.A.The problem of backpacks is worth studying B.The problem made by heavy backpacks
C.What is the best backpack for a student D.How to make students‟ backpacks light
2.According to Enderlin Reyes and Shirley Park, we know ______.A.students have to do too much homework
B.backpacks have to carry heavy backpacks
C.backpacks without wheels are bad for students
D.too much homework leaves students no free time
3.The expression “switched to” in the text perhaps means ______.A.started to use B.turned to C.caught up D.used for
4.According to the passage, it‟s better for a student of 40 kilograms to carry a backpack of _____ at most by the words of experts.A.10 kg B.8 kg C.6 kg D.7 kg
5.If students follow the doctor‟s suggestions they ______.A.may lighten their backpacks B.can learn how to help themselves
C.may feel their backpacks are lighter D.will know how to wear backpacks 五

七、Dear Sir or Madam, Last Thursday, I traveled on the 8:00 a.m.train from Glasgow to London King‟s Cross and I was quite angry with the service of your company.The train didn‟t come on time and it was forty minutes late when it left Glasgow.A man at the station said sorry to us, but he didn‟t give us any reasons for the delay(误点).We then had further delays on the way and had to wait another thirty minutes.As a result, I missed my plane from London to Frankfurt and had to wait for several hours.What‟s more, the service on the train was also very poor, The trip took more than five hours.Unluckily, we could buy nothing but some soft drinks on the train.Worst of all, something was wrong with the air conditioning(空调系统)and it got hotter and hotter in the train.Before we reached King‟s Cross, the temperature was over 40°C.Because of your poor service, I feel you should pay me compensation(赔偿).I am looking forward to hearing from you.Yours faithfully David Roberson 1.When did the train leave Glasgow?

八、Do you know why different animals or insects(昆虫)have their special colors? Colors are used mainly to protect themselves.Why can‟t some birds easily catch locusts(蝗虫)? It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops(庄稼).When crops are green, locusts look green.But as autumn comes, locusts change to the same brown color as crops have.Some other insects with autumn comes, locusts change to the same brown color as crops have.Some other insects with different colors from plants are easily found and eaten by others.So they have to hide themselves for lives in the day 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 can‟t be easily seen by hunters(猎人).This is because they have the colors much like the trees.Have you ever noticed an even more strange thing? A kind of fish in the sea can send out black liquid(液体)when it faces danger.While the liquid spreads over(散开), its enemies(敌人)can‟t find it.And it quickly swims away.So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.1.From the article we learn that locusts __________.A.are dangerous to their enemies B.are easily found by birds C.change their colors to protect themselves D.are small animals 2.How can insects with different colors from plants keep out of danger?

Because __________.A.it is very big and strong B.the liquid it sends out can help it swim away from its enemies C.the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies D.it swims faster than any other fish 5.Which is the best title for this passage? A.The Main Use of Colors for Animals and Insects B.Colors of Different Animals and Insects C.The Change of Colors for Animals and Insects D.The Change of Different Animals and Plants 五
