The following diagrams(图表) show some results of it. Diagram1: Hours for people of different ages who search(搜索) the Internet in a week. Diagram2: Different days people go to the library. Diagram3: Different programs people like. 31. People aged_ spend the most time searching the Internet every week. A.7-16 B.17-30 C.31-55 D. over 56 32 How many people go to the library on Monday? A.

A. what people do every day B. people's different habits C. people's different lifestyles(生活方式) D. how people spend their free time (B) Bananas are good fruit. Not only are they sweet and delicious, but they are easy to take around, so you can take them anywhere. Best of all, bananas provide (提供) different things that the human body needs! Bananas grow best in warm places that get lots of rain. They grow on plants that look like trees. The banana plant, however, is seen a herb (草本) rather than a tree because it doesn’t have a strong, woody stem (干、茎). The plants can grow as high as 30 feet. When they reach their full height, flowers grow out from the stem. These flowers produce bananas. Two or three times each year, the plants produce fruit. The bananas grow together, which seem like "hands". A hand is made up of 10 to 20 bananas. Growers sometimes call bananas "fingers". Each bunch (丛) of bananas has about 15 hands, and so a whole bunch may have as many as 200 bananas and can weigh more than 100 pounds. After about three months, farmers pick(摘) the bananas. At this point, they still aren’t the sunny yellow color: bananas. Farmers pick them when they’re green. That’s how they’re shipped to stores. They turn yellow along the way and are ready to be sold. If you love bananas, you’ve got a lot of company. Americans have been enjoying bananas since the first shipment arrived in the United States in 1876. Today Americans eat more bananas than any other fruit. More bananas are sold than apples and grapes together. Every American eats over 26 pounds of bananas each year! 34.The first paragraph mainly talks about _. A.why people like bananas B.how bananas taste C.what bananas are rich in D.where bananas are taken 35.The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 probably refers to _ A.bananas B.the banana plant C.herb D.tree 36.What is the correct order in which these happen? a. The bananas begin to turn yellow. b. A banana plant grows to full height. c. The flowers produce bananas. d. The bananas are ready to be picked. A.c-b-a-d B.b-c-d-a C.b-c-a-d D.c-b-d-a 37.Why do farmers pick bananas when they’re green? A.Because they are always green. B.Because people like green bananas. C.Because it’s convenient to ship. D.Because yellow bananas aren’t delicious. (C) If you go into the forest with friends, stay with them. If you don't, you may get lost. If you get lost,these are what you should do. Sit down and stay where you are. Don't try to find your friends-let them find you. You can help them to find you. You can shout or whistle(口哨)three times. Stop. Then shout or whistle three times again. Any signal(信号) for three times is a call for help. When people hear you, they will know that you are asking for help. If you don't think that you can get help before night comes, try to make a little house with branches(树枝). Make a bed with leaves and grass by yourself. When you need some water, you have to leave your little house to look for a river. Don't just walk away. Get small branches and drop them when you walk to find the way back. If you have a pen and paper, leave notes(标记)along the way. If you are careful and know what you are doing, you can also build a fire. Maybe someone will see the smoke(烟) and ask why there is a fire this time of the year ,and they may come to find you. The most important one is that you must be calm when you get lost in the forest and try to enjoy being lost for a while. 38. If you get lost, you can and stay where you are. A.sit down B. shout all the time C. look for friends D. do nothing 39. Which of the following is NOT TRUE? A. Stay in one place and give signals if you get lost in the forest. B. Make a house with branches if you think you'll get help before night comes. C. Build a fire so that your friends may find you by seeing its smoke. D.

What to do when we get lost in the forest. B. What to do when we need help. C. How to travel in the forest. D. Where to go on vacation (D) Do you have true friends? Do you want to know better between you and your friends? There are three different kinds of friends: “pest friends”, “guest friends”, and “best friends”. The first kind of friends is simply an acquaintance (熟人). All you usually know about them is their names. You may meet this kind of friends at school, at work, or on the bus, but you don’t miss them when they’re not around. When this kind of friends does something bad, you don’t tell them. That is why they are called “pest friends”. The second kind of friends could also be called “social partners”. They are closer than acquaintances, but not as close as true friends. You know their names, a little of what they like or dislike, and a little of their family histories. You usually have a few things in common, but you don’t talk about anything deep, such as your wishes or fears, and they don’t open up to you how they really feel. The last kind of friends, the “best friend”, is the one you know the deepest. You’re like family, and know everything about each other. You have no problem staying at each other’s houses, and you share your deepest feelings and thoughts. They will correct you when you’re wrong. Sometimes they may not be perfect, but at least they will always care about you, and never do anything to hurt you. We all have our pest, guest, and best friends. We should value all friendships and remember, all best friends start out as just acquaintances. 42.If you and John are neighbors and classmates, and do things together, but don’t share your feelings, you are “_”. A.pest friends B.guest friends C.best friends D.true friends 43.The fourth paragraph mainly tells us _. A.how to make a best friend B.how to learn from your best friends C.what a best friend is D.a best friend can correct you when you are wrong 44.From the passage, we can learn that _. A.pest friends are more important than guest friends B.we miss our best friends when we’re not with them C.a best friend hardly does anything bad to you D.a pest friend will never become your best friend 45.Which of the following shows the structure(结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 阅读下面信息,请从以下选项(A.B.C.D.E和F)中选出符合46-50题的选项,其中有一项是多余选项。 How to Be Outgoing If you think you are too shy and want to be a little outgoing, try the following. You can make it. 46 There’s no need to hide(藏) it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they’ll understand you better. This also helps you feel more comfortable when talking with others. 47 Smile to others so they will think you are friendly and easy to talk to. Remember that other people have feelings too and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face. 48 Try to start a talk. If you find it hard to do so, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to those people? 49 Don’t waste(浪费) time worrying about your looks or if people like you. Think more about ways to enjoy the party or the game. 50 Each time after you say “hi” to someone for the first time, say to yourself “You did it!” or it could be something bigger, like buying yourself an ice-cream. Keep trying and one day you won’t be “shy” any more when you talk to others. A.Turn your mind to somewhere else. B.Reward(奖励)yourself. C.Try to smile more. D.Don’t laugh at others.
