A story says that when you see a rainbow you should run at once to the place where it touches the ground, and there you would find a bag of gold. Of course, it is not true. You could not find the bag of gold, you could not ever find its end, either. No matter how far you run, it always seems far away.
A rainbow is not a thing which we can feel with our hands as we can feel a flower. It is only the effect of light shining on raindrops. The raindrops catch the sunlight and break it up into all the wonderful colors which we see.
It is called a rainbow perhaps because it is made up of raindrops and looks like a bow (弓). That is why we can never see a rainbow in a clear sky. We see rainbows only when there are raindrops in the air and the sun is shining brightly through the clouds. Every rainbow has many colors in the same order. A rainbow is indeed one of the wonders of nature.
44. What would you find if you reach the end of the rainbow according to the story?
A. A bag of gold. B. A bottle of raindrops. C. A bow. D. A flower.
45. We can see a rainbow when ________ .
①there are raindrops in the air ②it’s cloudy
③the sun shines brightly ④we run far away
A. ①② B. ①③ C. ②③ D. ②④
46. How does the writer introduce his topic?
A. By telling a story. B. By listing some numbers.
C. By doing a survey. D. By using famous people’s words.
【答案】44. A 45. B 46. A
【解析】

【45题详解】
细节理解题。根据“We see rainbows only when there are raindrops in the air and the sun is shining brightly through the clouds.”可知,我们只有在空气中有雨滴且太阳透过云层明亮照耀时才能看到彩虹。故选B。
【46题详解】

War started in our house in late July with a month to go before my first day of college. It was a war of wills (意愿) over what college I was to attend. Mum wanted me to attend a nursing school, and I wanted to go to a writing college. Every night for two weeks, we shouted until both of us went to bed angrily.
It was mostly my fault (过错). Since my first year of high school, I wanted to be a nurse. I took all the courses, and even worked as a volunteer in my town’s local hospital. My purpose was to help the sick and be superwoman to the world.
As time went by, it changed. Treating the sick was great, but I don’t want to do it for the rest of my life. I could picture myself in hospitals, making rounds (巡视), and taking temperatures, but I couldn’t picture myself happy. It wasn’t the future I wanted.
Then, I realized I loved creating and writing stories when I was young. Writing was my hobby. It was going to be my career. And it had to be.
On August 1st, Mum and I sat down at the dinner table and I told her that she had every right to choose where to spend her money, just like I had every right to decide where I wanted to go to school. I could work to make money by myself and go to the college I wanted.
I was determined (坚定的). ________, and she decided to support me.

Athletes take part in many different events including football, basketball and tennis.
In August 2011, the 26th Summer Universiade was held in Shenzhen, China.

Shenzhen did a lot to prepare for the Games. It opened several new underground lines, and added 200 electric buses and 300 electric taxis to the city. Also, the building of 21 new locations for events to take place at was successfully completed. The Games made use of 54 different stadiums, including 29 competition halls and 25 training halls.

Growing up in difficulties
Growing up is like a long journey and I have learned a lot by far.
Learning about the world is part of growing up. I usually learn about the world from teachers at school. They teach me lots of useful knowledge. I also learn about the world through the Internet. I can get a great deal of information quickly.
But I also have some problems when growing up. For example, I don’t have enough sleep because of too much homework. What’s more, I can’t achieve a balance between schoolwork and hobbies. I ask my teacher Mr. Green for advice and he advises me to plan my time well.

A story says that when you see a rainbow you should run at once to the place where it touches the ground, and there you would find a bag of gold. Of course, it is not true. You could not find the bag of gold, you could not ever find its end, either. No matter how far you run, it always seems far away.
A rainbow is not a thing which we can feel with our hands as we can feel a flower. It is only the effect of light shining on raindrops. The raindrops catch the sunlight and break it up into all the wonderful colors which we see.
It is called a rainbow perhaps because it is made up of raindrops and looks like a bow (弓) That is why we can never see a rainbow in a clear sky. We see rainbows only when there are raindrops in the air and the sun is shining brightly through the clouds. Every rainbow has many colors in the same order. A rainbow is indeed one of the wonders of nature.
44. What would you find if you reach the end of the rainbow according to the story?
A. A bag of gold. B. A bottle of raindrops. C. A bow. D. A flower.
45. We can see a rainbow when ________ .
①there are raindrops in the air ②it’s cloudy
③the sun shines brightly ④we run far away

The Universiade is a sports competition for university student athletes. The name is a combination of the words “University” and “Olympiad”. The competition is also known as the World University Games. It is held every two years in summer or winter and was first held in Turin, Italy, in 1959. Athletes take part in many different events including football, basketball and tennis.
In August 2011, the 26th Summer Universiade was held in Shenzhen, China.

Shenzhen did a lot to prepare for the Games. It opened several new underground lines, and added 200 electric buses and 300 electric taxis to the city. Also, the building of 21 new locations for events to take place at was successfully completed. The Games made use of 54 different stadiums, including 29 competition halls and 25 training halls.
