It is as important as Christmas in the West. On the evening before Spring Festival, all the family members get together and have a big dinner. After dinner, they watch TV and play cards while waiting for the New Year to come. The next one is the Lantern Festival. It falls on the 15th night of the first lunar (农历) month. People often go out to enjoy the lantern show. Then comes the Dragon Boat Festival. It is on the 5th lunar month. It is a festival to honor (纪念) an ancient poet Qu Yuan. People often hold dragon boat competitions on that day. So it is now a festival of the Chinese traditional sports. The next one is the Mid-Autumn Festival. It falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month. The whole family sit in the open air and enjoy the bright moon while (在……时候) they’re eating moon cakes and fresh fruit. 31.

People eat rice dumplings in the Mid-Autumn Festival. B The Greens went to Beijing two weeks ago. They had fun there. Before their trip to Shanghai, they decided to visit the Great Wall. This morning, they left for the Great Wall by bus at 9:00. It took them about one hour and a half to get there. When they arrived there, they climbed the Great Wall and took lots of photos. After four hours, it began to rain. Then they left and went back to the hotel. After they got to the hotel, they found their camera was lost. There were lots of photos in it. Mr. Green’s kids felt sad and they didn’t want to eat anything for dinner. Mr. Green wanted to make them happy, so he told them a joke. “An old man lived in a sixty-storey (层) building. One day he fell down from it, but he didn’t hurt himself,” Mr. Green said. “Do you know why?” The kids were surprised and they didn’t know the answer. “Because he lived on the first floor!” said Mr. Green. The kids all laughed. Just then a policeman came in with a bag. He said a Chinese boy found the bag on the Great Wall. He found a card of the hotel in it and then found them. Mr. Green opened the bag and found the camera. They were all very happy. 34. How long did Mr. Green’s family stay in Beijing? A. For about a week. B. For about two days. C. For about a month. D. For about half a month. 35. When did they leave for the Great Wall? A. At about 2:30 p. m. B. At about 1:00 p. m. C. At about 10:30 a. m. D. At about 9:00 a. m. 36. What does the underlined word “camera” mean in Chinese? A. 播放机 B. 照相机 C. 录音机 D. 游戏机 37. What do we know from the passage? A. Mr. Green’s family lived on the first floor of a building. B. The family would go to Shanghai after they left Beijing. C The policeman found the family’s bag on the Great Wall. D. Mr. Green’s children didn’t laugh until they saw the camera. C Everyone needs friends. If you want to have good friends, you should be a good friend yourself first. When I was 5 years old, I had a lot of friends. Every kid liked to play with me because I always shared my toy cars with others. When I was 11, I was captain (队长) of my soccer team. I was also the best player. At the beginning, I wasn’t captain and I was the weakest player of the team. At that time, nobody (没有人) wanted to make friends with me. Then I trained very hard to be a good player. After a lot of hard work, I became a good player. And my teammates wanted to make friends with me. If you want to be a good friend, always remember to make yourself stronger and stronger. Now I’m 14. I’m good at math and my best friend is good at English. We often help each other. I help him make progress (进步) in math. Many of my classmates are bad at math, and they come to ask me for help. We become good friends, too. 38. What should one do first to have good friends? A. Become a good friend oneself. B. Help others study math or English. C. Make oneself stronger than others. D. Become the best soccer player of the team. 39. How did the writer become a good player? A. By training hard. B. By sharing his toy cars. C. By moving to a good team. D. By teaching his friends math. 40 How old is the writer now? A. 10. B. 11. C. 13. D. 14. 41. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. One should be weak when making friends. B. It’s not easy to make friends when one does well in math. C. The writer has no problem while making friends with others. D. If we want to make more friends, we should become stronger than others. D Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because an airport is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off and it is often late. You can’t open the windows. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but they still take hours to get out of the airport and into the city. I like travelling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually in cities. When you can’t catch a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around on the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way. I know it takes a little more time. I also like cars. You can start your journey (旅行) when you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road. 42. Why do many people like to travel by plane? A. Because it is fast. B. Because it is safe. C. Because it is cheap. D. Because you can walk around on the plane. 43. Which is NOT the good thing about the train? A It is safe. B. It takes a little more time. C. You can open the windows. D. You can walk around on the train. 44. If you want to take a lot of things with you, what do you take to go out? A. A bus. B. A car. C. A train. D. A bike. 45. What is the bad thing about the car? A. You needn’t go to a bus station. B. You needn’t go to a railway station. C. There are too many cars on the road. D. You can start your journey when you want to.
