三、阅读理解 (共5小题,每题2分)
Host: As we know, the British have been sending cards since the 19th century. They spend about 1,700,000,000 pounds on cards every year. However, the number of people sending cards and letters is falling. More than 30 percent of UK children have never sent or received a handwritten letter. Should the tradition of sending cards and letters be stopped?
Group A:
We live in a fast-developing world and using snail mail is unnecessary. Making paper uses lots of energy and some cards are hard to recycle. It’s bad for environment. What’s more, cards are expensive to buy and so is posting. Nowadays, we usually use our phones and computers because they are quick, easy and free. Traditional cards and letters are out of date. They are not young people’s cup of tea. It’s no surprise that most of them end up as litter.
Group B:The tradition has been around for hundreds of years and should stay. Sending a handwritten letter or carefully chosen card shows that you care. Phone messages and emails are quick and easy, but they seem to carry less feeling. Sending letters is good for children because it is a chance to practice writing skills. Also, it’s fun! Receiving post makes you feel special and it’s important if someone lives far away or is lonely—just imagine a birthday without cards!
( )26.What’s the discussion mainly about?
A.When the British send cards and letters.
B.Whether the British should keep the tradition.
C.Why the British like sending cards and letters.
( )27.Who thinks it’s necessary to keep the tradition?
A.The host. B.Group A. C.Group B.
( )28.Which picture can show the meaning of the underlined word snail?
A. B. C.
( )29.What does Group A think of sending cards?
A.Free but slow. B.Fast but expensive. C.Wasteful and expensive.
( )30.Which of the following facts directly caused the discussion?
A.People have different opinions.
B.Fewer British people send cards and letters.
C.The British spend too much money on cards and letters.

八、任务型阅读,每空一词。 (共10小题,每题1分)
Do you know someone who just can’t make friends? Sometimes we may find it hard to connect and make friends. When we talk with others, some social habits need our attention.
Talking about yourself
Conversations are give-and-take. When you only talk about yourself, you’re just taking, not giving. So learn to ask questions, and while listening, don’t prepare your next thought in your mind. When both are listening, the conversation becomes much more interesting.
Looking at your phone
Every time you stare(盯着) at your phone, you cannot connect with another person well. This is not just important with strangers, but even with friends, because looking at your phone tells everyone, “My phone is more important than you.”
Ignoring(忽视) uninterested body language
Some people use their hands a lot when they speak, and some of us don’t. But body language isn’t just about our hands. It’s about our whole body. When we don’t look at the person we’re talking with, it shows that we don’t really care. I feel bad about this sometimes, too.
Rushing
Friendships are a type of relationship, so it’s not proper to get too deep too quickly. Some people share their whole life story too fast, but that will not make the listener feel comfortable.
Social habits
Shouldn’t do
Should do

九、首字母填空。(共10小题,每题1分)
A smile shows that a person is happy. For example, a person may smile when he or she is pleased with some progress in studies. Or a person may smile if a friend t 66 a funny joke. Why do people smile? There are more answers.
First, it is e 67 to smile than to show unhappiness. In fact, it only takes 17 muscles (肌肉) to smile. On the other hand, it takes 43 muscles to show unhappiness. So give the muscles in your face a r 68 and smile!
Second, smiles are nice. People may try to look nice by e 69 or wearing nice clothes. However, people often say a smile is the best thing a person can w 70 . That is because it is easy to be a 71 someone who is smiling and happy. Almost no one wants to stay with someone who is always unhappy.
Third, smiles have power (感染力). Both smiling and laughing can easily and quickly spread from one person to a 72 . If one person smiles, people around him or her want to smile, too. Similarly, when a person laughs, people tend (往往会) to laugh with him or her. If a person is s 73 , the best thing to do is to share a smile or a laugh. It is the easiest way to cheer someone up.
F 74 , smiling and laughing are very good for the body. Even though you are sad, try smiling. You’ll find that it will be difficult to s 75 sad for very long!
