Do you know what an important role it plays in the whole world? Did you visit any famous places along the road? Although it’s called the Silk Road, people bought and sold much more than silk. The Silk Road went through Asia, the Middle East, North Africa and Europe. It was 6,500 km from Xi’an to Rome. My dad is very interested in the Silk Road and he has told me many things about it. Last summer, my family got away for a holiday and went to some places on the road. We started at Lanzhou and went on to Wuwei. Wuwei was a very important city on the Silk Road. It connected (连接) three main cities in the area. In ancient times, it was also a capital. Although it’s now a modern city, you can get a feeling of history when you visit it. We saw lots of very old stone monuments and people there were very proud of their city’s long history. The next stop was Jiayuguan. It’s on the edge (边缘) of the desert, and was also an important place on the Silk Road. It was a busy city with a lot of people coming and going. Even today, it’s also a city that many business people travel through. An important part of the Great Wall was also built here. After that, we went on to Yumenguan. I first found out about Yumenguan in the famous poem written by Wang Zhihuan. It was in the Gobi Desert and was the only connection between Central Asia and China. I wonder how people ever made it through the hot desert so long ago. This trip wasn’t just a scenic (观光的) journey. It helped me understand the history of the area and learn how people from different places influenced (影响) each other in many ways. 59. Why does the writer use three questions in Paragraph 1? A.

D. The writer thought ancient people couldn’t go through the desert. C A shop owner put up a sign above his door that said: “Pets For Sale”. Just as he expected, a boy appeared at the sign. “How much are you going to sell the dogs for?” he asked. The owner replied, “Any money from $30 to $50.” The little boy took out some money from his pocket. “I have $2.37,” he said. “Can I look at them?” “Sure,” the owner smiled, taking out five little dogs. One was left behind. The little boy pointed to him and asked “What’s wrong with him?” The owner then explained that the little dog was disabled (残疾的). And he would never be able to walk quickly. The little boy became excited, “That’s the dog I want to buy!” The owner said, “No, you don’t need to buy that little dog. If you really want him, I’ll just give him to you.” The little boy got quite upset. He looked into the store owner’s eyes and said, “I don’t want you to give him to me for free. That little dog worths (价值) the same as all the other dogs and I’ll pay full price. In fact, I’ll give you $2.37 now, and I will pay the rest of the money in a month.” The owner was surprised, “He can’t run or jump and never play with you like the other dogs.” On hearing this, the little boy rolled up (卷起) his trouser leg to show his left leg supported by a big metal bracket (支架). He looked up at the shop owner and softly replied, “Well, I don’t run so well, either, and the little dog needs someone who understands him!” 63. What did the boy want to do when he knew about the price for the dogs? A. To buy all of them. B. To feed all of them. C. To take a look at them. D. To get one of them for free. 64. Why was the boy interested in the disabled dog? A. Because the dog looked like the one he had before. B. Because the dog was similar to him. C. Because the dog was active and ran the fastest. D. Because the dog was the only one that he could afford. 65. What can we infer (推断) from the text? A. The little dog will walk quickly with the help of the boy. B. The shop owner gave the disabled dog to the boy for free. C. The boy will go to the shop again to pay the rest of the money. D. The shop owner will never know why the boy wanted that dog. D Do you get angry when your friends sing loudly while you are working, or when your best friend does not wait for you after school? If you do, you need to take control of your feelings and stop getting angry so easily. Getting angry with people can make you lose friends. Gary Egeberg, an American high school teacher, has written My Feelings Are Just Like Wild Animals to help you control your feelings. It tells teenagers how to stay cool when bad things happen to them. The book says that getting angry only makes problems worse. Getting angry is not a natured (本性的) way to act. It is just a bad habit, like smoking. The book says you can control your anger easily-all you have to do is to tell yourself not to be angry. When a baby falls over, it only cries if people are watching it. Like a baby, you should only get angry if you are sure it is the right thing to do. The book gives many tips to help you if you get angry easily Here are the top three: ★Keep a record. Every time you get angry, write down why you are angry. Look at it later and you will see you get angry too easily. ★Ask your friends to stop talking to you when you get angry. This will teach you not to be angry. ★Do something different. When you get angry, walk away from the problem and somewhere else. Try to laugh! 66. The writer thinks that if you get angry easily you will ________. A. lose your job B. get ill very easily C. lose weight easily D. lose your friends 67. In the fourth paragraph, the underlined word “it” refers to ________. A. the book B. the habit C. the baby D. falling over 68. What’s the best title of this passage? A. How to keep a record B. How to keep cool when you get angry C. When to stop getting angry D. How to use the book E Have you ever wished that your life was like a reality (现实) TV show? Well, like it or not, things might be this way in the future. This is because of Google glasses (谷歌眼镜), this kind of glasses is the latest technology (科技) from Google. They have more useful features than you could possibly imagine. For one thing, people who wear the glasses can shoot videos and record the sounds around them. So if your friend is wearing Google glasses, he or she can record your every move and broadcast live on the Internet for the world to see. For another thing, there is a GPS system in the glasses. So if you get lost, you can say—OK, Glass, where am I? And it will find where you are and tell you where you need to go. Lastly, Google glasses are a bit like a helpful secretary (秘书). You can tell them what you want to write in an e-mail and they will type it for you. Since April 16, Google glasses have been on the market in small numbers. And by the end of the year anyone will be able to buy a pair for about 2,500 yuan. Some people are not sure whether Google glasses are cool or not. When someone is wearing Google glasses, it is not easy to see whether or not he is using them. 69. The passage is mainly about ________. A. what Google glasses can do B. the designer of Google glasses C. the safety of Google glasses D. The price of Google glasses 70. How many features (特征) of Google glasses are mentioned in the passage? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 71. What can’t we learn about Google glasses from the passage? A. How many Google glasses there are. B. The price. C. Who develops (研发) them. D. The features. 72. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A People don’t like wearing Google glasses. B. People with Google glasses are not so cool. C. People don’t believe they can find Google glasses. D. It’s hard to find whether someone is using Google glasses. F Many parents ask their children to do chores around the house. Mary, a mother of three children, never did that before. She always thought her children were too young to do chores. However, a TV show called Old Enough changed her. It’s a popular reality show (真人秀) in Japan. The idea of the show is from a children’s picture book. The book describes a mother asking her five-year-old daughter to run to a store near their home to get some milk. The child is nervous about going alone but she finishes it successfully. The TV show has a similar story: children as young as two or three years old go out alone to run errands (跑腿) for their family. After watching the show, Mary decided to have a try. She then found a way on the Internet to make her children interested in the housework. Mary used an app called You Rule Chores. It can make doing housework more like playing a game. Every time the children finish a chore, they can get a coin (硬币) on the app as a prize. The more chores they do, the more coins they can get. Then they can use the coins to watch their favorite movies or take a trip. Now, her children can do lots of chores themselves and they become more independent. 73. Where does the idea of the TV show come from? (不超过5个词) __________________________________________________ 74. How did Mary make her children interested in the housework? (不超过10个词) __________________________________________________ 75. What can the children do with the coins?
