One evening, there was a knock at the door. I opened it to see a 35 sick-looking man. His face looked terrible – it was red and unusual. Yet his voice was pleasant. He told me that he came for treatment and that he’d been 36 for a spare room since noon, but no one would give him one. “I guess it’s my 37 …” For a moment, I couldn’t decide, but his next words touched me: “I’ll sleep in this armchair in the doorway. My bus leaves early in the morning.” The old man had a 38 heart inside his small body. He told me that he fished for a living to support his daughter, his daughter’s five children and her disabled husband. He didn’t complain while telling me his story. He felt 39 that no pain was with his disease, which was seemingly a form of skin cancer. The next morning, he said, “Can I come back and stay the next time I need treatment?” I told him he was 40 to come again. On his next trip, as a 41 , he brought a big fish and some unknown shellfish. In the years that he stayed with us, there was never a time that he did not bring us gifts like these. My neighbour told me that I could lose customers by 42 up the old man after he left the first morning. Maybe we did lose customers once or twice. But if they had known him, perhaps their illnesses would have been 43 to cure. From the old man, we learned what it was to 44 the bad without complaint and the good with thanks. I know our family will always be happy to have known him! 35. A. highly B. truly C. smoothly D. widely 36. A. preparing B. wondering C. dreaming D. hunting 37. A. face B. hand C. finger D. nose 38. A. weak B. careful C. big D. broken 39. A. sad B. lucky C. sick D. crazy 40. A. healthy B. correct C. welcome D. generous 41. A. gift B. celebration C. cost D. fashion 42. A. looking B. turning C. giving D. putting 43. A. harder B. easier C. cheaper D. safer 44.

They share good times with us — we have fun together, laugh together and they make us smile. But good friends are also there for us when things aren’t so great. They listen to us, help us and support us through difficult times. What makes a good friend? A good friend is always there for you, whatever happens. They don’t judge you — they accept you, value you and respect you for who you are. You can be yourself when you’re around them. A good friend is kind, loyal and honest and isn’t afraid to tell you the truth, even if it’s difficult. You enjoy spending time together and maybe share some 英语试卷 第 6 页 （共 10 页） hobbies or interests. What is the International Day of Friendship? Friendship is so important that, in 2011, the United Nations decided to make a special day for it! The International Day of Friendship takes place on 30 July every year. The idea is that friendship between different groups of people, countries and cultures can help us live more peacefully together. ▲ The International Day of Friendship on 30 July is not the only day celebrating friendship around the world. Some countries celebrate on different days. For example, Argentina, Brazil and Spain celebrate Friend’s Day on 20 July, and in India and the USA, they celebrate it on the first Sunday in August. In Finland and Estonia, people celebrate Friendship Day on the same day as Valentine’s Day, 14 February. What do people do on the International Day of Friendship? The main aim of the International Day of Friendship is to show your friends that you care about them and that you value their friendship. You could make a card or write a note telling them why they’re such a great friend. You could make them a small present, such as a friendship bracelet, or bake a cake for them. Whatever you do on this day, it’s a time to have fun and celebrate with friends, and perhaps make some new ones! Happy International Day of Friendship! 48. What does the underlined word ones mean? A. Presents. B. Wishes. C. Plans. D. Friends. 49. Which of the following is the best for ▲ ? A. Friendly activities around the world B. Different celebrations about friendship C.

However, according to 16-year-old twin Gerald Scott, there are ways in which some sets of twins are quite amazing. “My twin, Owen, and I have had a very special bond (关系) since we were born. When we were very small, we had our own language. Our mum says we used to talk to each other using our own special language. We knew what we were saying but nobody else understood. Even our mother didn’t understand us. As we got older, we started using telepathy to communicate. Sometimes we don’t need to speak at all; we just use our minds. We can somehow send messages to each other even when we aren’t in the same place. I know it sounds unbelievable, but I’ve always known if Owen was in trouble. Once he had a bad fall in rugby - he broke his leg and when it happened, I got this terrible pain in my leg.” Although it sounds strange, telepathy between twins isn’t so unusual. There have been a lot of studies which have proved that some twins have this ability. One experiment involved eight-year-old Richard Powles and his twin, Damien. First, they were put in separate (隔开的), soundless rooms, and Damien was wired up to a machine that measured his responses (反应). Richard was then asked to put his arm into ice cold water. At the exact moment he put his arm into the water, Damien’s responses went wild. And it was the same whenever anything scary or surprising happened to Richard - his brother in the other room reacted too. There have been cases between famous twins too. Actor Ashley Olsen tells us that, even when they are far away from each other, she knows when her twin sister, Mary-Kate, is going through a difficult time or when she isn’t happy. 54. What does the underlined word telepathy mean? A. A language that only a few people can understand. B. A language that is only for twins around the world. C. A way of sending messages without using words. D. A way to speak to very close family members. 55. Which of the following is a fact? A. Richard Powles and Damien were able to use telepathy to communicate. B. Richard Powles and Damien did an experiment to show they were unusual. C. Gerald Scott and Owen’s parents speak different languages at home. D. Gerald Scott and Owen began to learn new languages when they got older. 56. The following sentence can best go after ____________. So, maybe it’s true - maybe some twins don’t need words at all to speak to each other. A. Paragraph 1. B. Paragraph 2. C. Paragraph 3. D. Paragraph 4. 57. What can we learn from the passage? A. Some twins like to share their ideas with themselves. B. Studies show some twins can communicate specially. C. Twins know more languages than most other people. D. Twins have special abilities when they are not together. 英语试卷 第 9 页 （共 10 页） 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共 40 分） 五、词汇运用 (本大题共 10 小题，每小题 1 分，共 10 分) (A) 根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 58.

I thought as I stomped (跺脚) away. My friends and I were trying to make the best cardboard town to play in. We had boxes that we were turning into stores and playgrounds and all kinds of other fun things! We weren’t getting along very well, though. I could hear them talking as I was walking away. “Wow, I didn’t think he’d get so angry,” Katie said. “This was supposed to be fun,” said Max. “Johnny can’t do it all by himself. Maybe if we give him some space he’ll want us to help again.” Yeah, right. Since it was my idea, I would just do it without them. The only problem was that I wanted it done before Thanksgiving so that I could show all of my family when they came over. When Thanksgiving was two weeks away, I began to know that it was just too big of a job. I couldn’t make the buildings out of boxes and put them around the town, and decorate them all by myself. It was taking way too long. I guess that’s why people work together. When we each had a job, this was fun and went a lot faster. Maybe I should say sorry to Katie and Max, they were just trying to help and have fun with me. cardboard 英语试卷 第 10 页 （共 10 页） The next day at school I said sorry to Katie and Max. “I don’t know why I got so angry, building a town was just supposed to be fun. Will you come back to my house today to complete our town?” I asked. “Sure, Johnny,” they said. We all took on a role and the town was done in no time. It was great! 78.
