Even before I learned to write, when I watched TV programs that showed animals from around the world that needed help, I drew the shapes of the phone numbers from the screen. I would take what I had copied to my mother and tell her, “We need to call here. They need help. We need to help them.” For my fifth birthday party, my mom said that we could ask my friends to bring donations (捐赠) of cat and dog food instead of birthday gifts. Then we could give them to the local animal shelter. When I first saw the big pile of pet food, I was amazed. Together, my friends and I could help many animals, I thought. Afterward, when we went to the shelter, we told the volunteer, “We’ve brought the animals here some cat and dog food. Could you open the back door so it will be easier to bring the food in?” The shelter worker looked at us and you could tell she thought opening the back door was unnecessary (不必要的). Finally, she said, “Okay.” Then, she met us around back, and when we opened the van loaded with food, her mouth hung open. “Wow! You sure do have pet food! What’s all this?” I told her about the whole story, and she almost cried. “You and your friends are so amazing! Thank you for being so generous (大方的) and kind.” We felt really proud. Even as little kids, we could do something big. She let me go through the shelter. Holding kittens, I felt my heart filled with love and joy, “We do make a difference.” 30. The writer asked for cat and dog food instead of birthday gifts to ________. A feed her own pets B. give it to the animal shelter C. sell it to the pet store D. save her friends some money 31. At the end of the story, the writer felt ________. A. happy B. lucky C. tired D. worried 32. What can we learn from the story? A. We shouldn’t be afraid of problems. B. It’s unnecessary to buy birthday gifts. C. Advice from parents is always helpful. D. Kids can play a part in helping animals. C Physical activity is important and we often plan to do it. However, we don’t often think about making time to exercise as a family. While we find time for family games or movie nights, we often forget family sports. Family exercise may seem silly, but there are many benefits (益处). Form Lifelong Habits By spending family time on a physical activity together, you encourage (鼓励) your children to exercise and build lifelong habits. When children see physical activities as an enjoyable thing to do together, they may keep family exercise as a family-time tradition as they grow up. ________ Children get more life skills at home than they do anywhere else. Teamwork is taught and encouraged in sports. By exercising together, you’re encouraging teamwork and working together to reach a common goal, which helps teach the importance of goal setting as a team. Bring Encouragement Parents are great encouragers in education and sports. You can give your children encouragement when doing family sports. Studies show that family encouragement influences (影响) children’s mental health in a good way. Good family bonding (联结) with family encouragement builds confidence (自信) in children. It may be all well and good to think about exercising together as a family, but it may be difficult to get started. Here is some advice for you. ● Take turns on who gets to choose the physical activity. Maybe you enjoy traditional exercise while your child wants to dance. On your exercising day, encourage your child to follow along. Then allow your child to choose the next family physical activity. ● Staying safe is always something important to think about for not only children but parents as well. Choose an activity with your child’s abilities in mind. If some of your family members are not good at running, try to slow down or have them ride a bike along. Family exercise can be both fun and a good chance for bonding. Remember to always choose the activity as a family and stay safe. 33. Which of the following would be the best heading for Paragraph 3? A. Build Teamwork B. Improve Health C. Keep Traditions D. Bring Happiness 34. According to the passage, the writer probably agrees that ________. A. it’s always safe to exercise together as a family B. it’s good and easy for families to start exercising C. children should play a part in deciding family exercise D. children will exercise with family more if they are confident 35. The passage is probably written for ________. A. children B. students C. teachers D. parents 36. What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage? A. The ways for families to exercise together and stay safe. B. The choices of family exercise and the reasons to start it. C. The benefits of family exercise and advice on how to start it. D. The importance for children to exercise and get more life skills. 六、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共12分，49-52每题2分，53题4分） If you like unusual places, you should visit the Hebrides Islands. Not many people live on these islands in the northwest of Scotland. The land is not good for farming. It’s only good for keeping sheep. The winters are long, cold, and wet. It’s hard to make a living on the Hebrides, but for a visitor, these islands can be very special. They’re not for everyone, however. Even summer days are cool and often windy. The water is too cold for swimming. There are no forests, and there are only a few trees and green fields. Instead of fields, there are just rocks and small plants. The hills, too, are just piles of rocks. Sometimes the view looks like pictures of the moon. But there is beauty in this place. From the beach you can often see all the way to the rocky hills. From the hills you can see far out to other islands and the open ocean. The colors, too, are special. Blue is everywhere. It’s in the sky and in the ocean. It is in the tiny flowers that grow on the hills. In the spring there is also green in the hills. In the summer and fall the hills are more purple. Often the air is soft and gray with clouds and rain. On these islands you can forget about the rest of the world. The evenings are quiet. The restaurants close early and there isn’t any nightlife. Visitors stay at a guest house or a Bed and Breakfast. This is the best way to learn about life on the islands. The islanders are often friendly, and they like to talk. If you want to meet islanders, you can also try the pubs (酒吧) or even the shops. People are in no hurry here. They like to chat about the weather or the fishing. There are also some tourist shops, but not many. They sell the usual tourist things. They also sell some beautiful clothes made of wool from the islands. Do not come to the Hebrides for shopping. Come to walk in the clean, cool air. Enjoy the quiet beauty and the views. 37. Are there many people living on the Hebrides Islands? _____________________________________ 38. What’s the weather like on the Hebrides in the summer? _____________________________________ 39. Where can you see all the way to the rocky hill? _____________________________________ 40.
