Sitting there worrying is no fun and it won’t solve your problems. Grades at school are often a top worry for children. If you worry most about grades, ask yourself these questions: ● Why are grades important? What do grades mean to me? ● How do I get ready for class? Do I go over my notes even when there isn't a test? ● Do I have a good place to do my homework? ● Have I tried different ways of studying? If your worry is about a fight you had with your friend, you might write down all the things you could do ---- write a note to him or her, invite him or her to watch a basketball game, say sorry to him or her and so on. Once you have a list of things you could do, you can choose one thing that could get your friend back. You can ask for help when you're worried. You can find someone to talk to, such as your parents, friends, and teachers. 34. What do children often worry most about? A. Their hobbies. B. Their homework. C. Their grades at school. D. A fight with their friends. 35. According to the passage, when you're worried, you’d better________. A. work hard B. ask for help and talk to someone C. get ready for class D. do your homework 36. If you're worried about grades, Don't ask yourself “___________”. A. Why are grades important? B. What do grades mean to me? C. How do I get ready for class? D. Why not give up my studies? 37. If you had a fight with a friend, you could____________. A. invite him or her to watch a game B. put the blame on him or her C. try to make new friends D. leave him or her alone C Is your TV connected to the Internet? What about your chair or your fridge? It is possible that they are not. But in the future, most things in your home may be connected, as the so-called "Internet of things" is developing. The Internet of things may be coming sooner than you think. It is reported that during his speech earlier this year, Samsung CEO(首席执行官)BK Yoon spent a lot of time talking about the Internet of things. He said that five years from now，every Samsung product will be part of the Internet of things, whether it's a washing machine or a vacuum cleaner(吸尘器). So, how do household(家用)objects that are part of Internet of things work? Well, think of a usual chair. When connected to the Internet, the chair warms up when it knows that the user has just walked into the room and is feeling cold. An Internet-connected camera, like a smart-home camera, could help people feel safer in their homes. It can recognize(识别)people's faces, and even can see when someone passes by in the dark. Then it can send you a message on your smartphone to let you know who's there. If the person is someone you don't know, it can tell you that, too. But according to MIT Technology Review, whether companies are connecting dog food bowls or security(安全)systems to the Internet, there may be problems. For example,many early connected-home devices(装置)don't have much built-in security, which means they could be hacked(被黑客攻击)，In addition, it could be difficult to get these devices to work together because they are made by different companies. To fight this, many companies have joined the Open Interconnect Consortium, which had 45 members by late 2014. So, picture this: you walk in through the front door of your home. The temperature changes to make you feel comfortable after a long day at school. Your favorite music starts playing for you. Do you think that this would be a good thing? It may happen sooner than you think. 38. The Samsung CEO's speech is mentioned to prove that_____. A. the Internet of things will appear in our daily life sooner B. Samsung has produced the Internet of things recently C. Samsung products have been part of the Internet of things D. he spent a lot of time talking about the Internet of things 39. We can infer(推断)from paragraphs 3 and 4 that A. the chair can know whether the user feels cold or not B. a usual chair can warm up when it knows the user comes in C. an Internet-connected camera can be used to take photos in the house D. an Internet-connected camera can be connected to the user's smartphone 40. According to the passage, it is mentioned that_____· ①the temperature inside is neither too high nor too low ②your fridge provides the drinks for you ③the chair warms up if you feel cold ④your favourite music starts playing ⑤your washing machine starts working A.①②⑤ B.②③④ C.①③④ D.①④⑤ 41. What's the problem about the Internet of things? A. Companies which produce connected-home devices haven't joined together. B. Connected-home devices may not work together and can easily get hacked. C. Companies have difficulty connecting security system to the Internet.’ D. These new devices are produced by different companies. D One day when some government officials were rebuilding a barn（谷仓）, they found a mouse hole in a corner and used smoke to force the mice inside the hole to come out. A while later they indeed saw mice running out, one after another. Then, everyone thought that all the mice had escaped. But just as they began to clean up, they saw two mice squeezing（挤）out at the mouth of the hole. With some efforts, the mice finally got out. However, it was strange that after they came out of the hole, they did not run away immediately. Instead, one chased after the other near the mouth of the hole. It seemed that one was trying to bite（咬）the tail of the other. Everyone was puzzled, so they stepped nearer to take a look. They realized that one of the mice was blind and could not see anything, and the other was trying to allow the blind mouse to bite on his tail so that he could pull the blind one with him to escape. After seeing what happened, everyone was speechless and lost in thought. During the meal time, the group of people sat down in a circle and started to chat about what happened to the two mice. One serious American official said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of king and guard. “The others thought for a while and said: “That was why!” A smart French said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of husband and wife.” Again the others thought for a while, and all felt it made sense. A Japanese said: “I think the relationship between those two mice was that of mother and son.” Once again the others thought for a while, and felt this was more reasonable. So they expressed agreement another time.[来源:学科网ZXXK] At that moment, one Chinese asked: “Why did those two mice have to have a certain relationship？ “Suddenly, the group looked back at the Chinese and remained speechless. The American official, the French and the Japanese who had spoken earlier all lowered their heads in shame, and did not dare to answer. In fact, the true love is not built on friendship, loyalty or blood relationship. Instead, it is based on no relationship. 42. Neither of the two mice ran away immediately because ______. A. one was biting the other B. the mouth of the hole was too small C. they were not afraid of smoke D. one was trying to help the blind one 43. “it made sense” probably means ______. A. it was correct B. it was strange C. it was funny D. it was sweet 44. Why did they lower their heads in shame according to the passage？ A. They did not dare to answer. B. They had mistaken the relationship of the mice. C. They regretted（后悔）driving a poor blind mouse away. D. They did not express themselves much better. 45. It is clear that ______. A. all the mice came out of the hole easily B. each of the people understood the relationship differently C. the people wanted to kill the mice with smoke D. the people knew one of the mice was blind at the first sight 第II卷（非选择题 共60分） 四、词汇（本题共15小题；每小题1分，共15分） A.根据题中空格后的中文提示，英文释义或句意，写出句中所缺单词，使句子通顺 46.

With this spirit, people try hard to make their team the best of all. Everyone has experienced team spirit one way or another, whether they were part of a team or saw a group of people cheer for their favourite player. There are different kinds of team spirit. One kind is the connection between a team of people because their efforts and cooperation (合作) are necessary in reaching a particular goal. Another kind is when a group of people support a person or a team. Another is people’s natural love for and pride in their country, when a whole nation cheers for its country in competitions. Team spirit creates various good effects. It creates friendship and trust（信任） between people who may not get along when they don’t have such team spirit. There may also be bad effects. Too great team spirit may cause arguments or fights with other team members. Some people don’t understand team spirit properly. They think team spirit means having to become an official member of an organization, team or fan club. In fact, team spirit can be built between friends, coworkers or even between two people sitting next to each other. You don’t have to be wearing the team spirit clothes. Anyone can show team spirit just by showing support for the goal. 76. What does team spirit mean? 77. When can we see people’s natural love for their country? 78. What good effects does team spirit create? 79. Where can team spirit be built? 80.
