The book is so interesting. Even today, it is quite popular among kids. Although I am in my thirties, the book is still one 5 of my favorites. After re-reading the book recently, I have learned an important lesson from Tom Sawyer. In our daily lives, we often face some boring or tiring work. What’s in your mind when your mom tells you to clean the floor? Did you ever complain(抱怨)? I think most people did. Tom Sawyer, however, thought “differently” when he was given a boring task. One Saturday morning, Aunt Polly told Tom to paint the fence(篱笆). Tom’s friend Ben Rogers happened to walk past. Instead of complaining, Tom told Ben that he felt “excited” about the task. “Only one in a thousand-maybe even two thousand-boys can do this!” Tom said. Tom’s words made Ben interested in the task. He even gave Tom his apple so that he could have a chance to paint the fence. If Tom had thought about nothing but complaining, he would have had a bad day painting the fence. This story teaches me a lesson: Complaining is useless. The next time you are given a boring or tiring task, don’t complain. Unlike what happens in the story of Tom Sawyer, it is unlikely that someone will come and do the work for you. However, without complaining, you’ll feel better and probably even do a better job! 46. Who is the writer of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer? A. Aunt Polly. B. Mark Twain. C. Ben Rogers. 47. According to the writer, what is most people’s immediate reaction(即时反应) to a boring task? A. Complaining about it. B. Taking it happily. C. Turning it down. 48. What did Aunt Polly ask Tom to do in this text? A. Visit Ben. B. Clean the floor. C. Paint the fence. 49. Why did Tom say the underlined sentence to Ben in Paragraph 3? A. To show his sadness. B. To catch Ben’s interest. C. To show his anger. 50. What does the writer learn from Tom Sawyer? A. It is no use complaining. B. Saying no is the best choice. C. Waiting is the only way out. B _________ about Hamburgers Although “hamburger” has a German name, it in fact started in the USA and is now popular all over the world. The most common hamburger is two buns with a piece of beef and some lettuce and sauce in the middle, but a hamburger can have many other ingredients as well. In Las Vegas, you can even taste a 6 burger with gold foil(金箔)! 51. When did people start eating hamburgers? A. 100 years ago. B. 120 years ago. C. 200 years ago. 52. Which of the following pictures could be a part of the menu for the first McDonald’s self-service drive-in restaurant? 53. What can we know from the pie chart? A. Hamburgers are a kind of sandwich. B. People don’t like hamburgers with beef. C. Hamburger restaurants are the most popular restaurants in the U.S. 7 54. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the article? A. Hamburgers were created by Americans. B. Hamburgers may have different ingredients all over the world. C. The most expensive hamburger makes a good lunch for a person. 55. What could the missing word in the title probably be? A. Stories. B. Facts. C. Ads. C In 2003, China sent its first astronaut, Yang Liwei, into space. Since then, many Chinese astronauts also “reached for the stars”. ZhaiZhigang, Cai Xuzhe, Song Lingdong, and Wang Haoze are some of them. The last three carried out the tasks(执行任务) of Shenzhou-19 in space. Do you dream of becoming an astronaut like them? To be an astronaut, you need to be very healthy. Good eyesight and a strong heart are important. You’d better not have any small problems. For example, a decayed tooth(龋齿) could get worse in space and bring problems for astronauts. In China, you must be a great pilot before you can be an astronaut. You must fly more than 600 hours without accidents(事故 ). And then you might start hard training after becoming a backup astronaut. For example, you have to wear a 200kg suit and do tasks underwater for six or seven hours without eating or going to the toilet . This is like doing tasks in spacewalks. Education is important as well. Astronauts take about 60 courses to get ready for a task, such as math, English, science, and many more. So they can also do scientific experiments(实验) in space. However, it’s possible that backup astronauts can never go to space. During the Shenzhou-18 task, only three astronauts could go into space. But there are other backup astronauts. They are also heroes of this great space program. 56. Who are the members of the Shenzhou-19 task? ①Yang Liwei ②Cai Xuzhe ③Song Lingdong ④Zhai Zhigang ⑤Wang Haoze A.①③④ B.②④⑤ C.②③⑤ 57. What might happen if astronauts have a decayed tooth in space? A. They might have heart problems. B. They will have bad eyesight. 8 C. Their tooth decay might become worse. 58. Who may be called a“ backup astronaut”? A. Jenny — She can do the same tasks as other astronauts but never took a task in space before. B. John — He carried out two tasks in space in the past three years. C. Tom— He is in good health and good at science, math, and English. 59. What training should an astronaut take? A. Flying an airplane for about 600 days. B. Wearing special clothes and doing tasks underwater. C. Practicing spacewalks for six or seven hours every day. 60. What question can we find the answer from the passage? A. How do astronauts stay healthy in space? B. What does it take to become an astronaut? C. Why does one need to be a pilot before being an astronaut?

Then, the stork said to the fox, “What about having dinner at my home tomorrow”? She was going to teach the fox a lesson. She prepared soup, too, 6 this time the soup was in a tall, narrow vase. It was quite easy for her to get the soup from the vase. But it was hard for the fox because his mouth was much 7 than the vase. The fox knew that the stork just wanted him 8 back.

It is common for some of us to feel down when the days get less long. 1 While autumn sadness is a common seasonal feeling we have as there is less sunlight, for some people, it takes on a more serious form known as seasonal affective disorder(季节性情绪失调), or SAD. 2 People who have SAD usually oversleep, overeat, and lose interest in activities they once enjoyed. Commonly, almost all people who have SAD feel sad and helpless. 3 Johns Hopkins University points that if people get less natural light during the autumn and winter months, their body’s hormones(荷尔蒙) will be influenced(受影响). 4 Light therapy(光疗法) is a common and useful way. Patients are advised to let under sunlight or man-made light that copies natural sunlight. Light therapy can help regulate patients’ hormones and get their lives back on track. 5 For example, you can keep a regular sleep schedule, take part in regular physical activity, and have a balanced diet. It’s worth noting that, in most cases, SAD begins in young adulthood. So, while learning in books and classes, don’t forget to enjoy the sunlight outdoors and get energy from nature! 三、阅读表达（共 10小题，计 20分） A. 完成图表 根据短文内容，完成图表中所缺信息。（共 5小题；每小题 2分，计 10分） Hole-in-the-wall restaurants are more and more popular in China. They are small restaurants that may not have beautiful environment or good service like traditional restaurants but have many delicious local(当地的) dishes. You cannot find them on the busy streets these days, because more tall buildings are built. A. People call this autumn sadness. B. Dealing with SAD often needs medical help. C. But it’s not an easy job to find out what leads to SAD. D. On the other hand, living a healthier life, can also be helpful. E. SAD mostly starts in late autumn or early winter and goes away in spring and summer. F. Scientists are still not sure about the reasons for SAD, but it makes a difference to people’s health. 10 Now, you can find hole-in-the-wall restaurants in some small streets in different parts of a city. The most popular hole-in-the-wall restaurants usually have a history of more than10 years. Many hole-in-the-wall restaurant lovers expect more natural life. Kit Chen, a 30-year-old Beijing office worker, is one such example. During weekends, he always walks through different hutongs to find hole-in-the-wall restaurants. “Before that, I usually went to internet-famous restaurants. However, I found out that they only use pre-made food or just stir-fry (炒 ) their dishes. They are expensive and not fresh,” said Chen. But hole-in-the-wall restaurants are different. “They buy the ingredients(食材) from local markets, so the dishes are also cheap,” he added. Wang Hongjie, a 16-year-old student from Chengdu, likes the experience of eating at hole-in-the-wall restaurants. “There are always a lot of people at meal times, and because of the little space, many diners at hole-in-the-wall restaurants usually need to eat at the same table. We don’t know each other but we can talk with each other.” she said. “But at internet-famous restaurants, diners just quietly enjoy their meals. It’s boring.” However, some people worry that the dishes in these restaurants are not clean enough, and eating too much may bring us some health problems. To solve it, experts advised that these restaurants should get more training and have better service. 1 2 3 4 5 11 B. 任务型阅读 根据短文内容，按要求回答问题。（共 5小题，每小题 2分，计 10分） “Do you want to grow your own vegetables?” Mom asked. “Yes!” My eyes got big. Mom smiled at my excitement. She gave me a book on gardening, and I carefully planted some seeds(种子) in the back yard. After supper, I rushed to see how much they might grow. Nothing! My mouth dropped. “Someone stole my seeds!” Mom laughed from ear to ear. She said, “Johnny, go and check the book.” I read the book and I knew something needed to be done. Early the next morning, I ran to the back yard. Everything looked the same but I wasn’t that disappointed(失望的). As the book said, I slowly watered my seeds and put my finger in the soil(泥土) to make sure it wasn’t too dry. That evening, I couldn’t help going to check my garden again. No sign of anything green. Just dirt. The next morning I raced to the garden again. No changes. “Why is it taking so long for the seeds to grow?” I asked. “Grow up!” I shouted. “Please, just grow,” I almost cried. Mom was too busy with housework to help. “Read the book, and wait patiently.” So I read again. I removed(除去) the grass from the soil and watered the seeds. Then one morning, I walked out to my garden. I wasn’t expecting to see anything yet. To my surprise, a little bit of green came into my eyes. I got down on my knees for a closer look. “They grew!” I shouted. I could see little green leaves growing everywhere! I was so excited! “They finally grew! The book is right. It took several days for the seeds to be in the soil before popping up.” 6.
