There are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in the mall. Most of the products in the supermarket are expensive, but sometimes you can get real cheap ones there. 第 3 页（共 8页） Products Price Made of Made in Used for Jacket ¥60 A hundred percent cotton Thailand Keeping out the cold Umbrella ¥130 Cloth and metal Japan Protecting people against the sun Camera ¥5000 Glass and metal (金属) Germany Taking photos Handbag ¥2200 Metal and leather (皮革) America Holding personal small things 21.

B Do you know that English can be spoken in different ways depending on where you are? People in Britain, America, Australia, and Canada all speak English, but they have some small differences. One big difference is how they say certain words. For example, people in Britain and Canada often say the “r” sound more clearly, even when it’s not at the start of a word. But people in America and Australia might not say the “r” as much. Another example is the word “toilet”. In Britain, they usually say “loo” or “bathroom”, while in America, they say “toilet” or “restroom”. In Australia, they might say “toilet” or “dunny”, and in Canada, they use a mix of British and American terms. They also use different words for some things. In Britain and Canada, a “biscuit” is a small, sweet treat. But in America and Australia, a “biscuit” is usually bigger and not as sweet. They call the small, sweet treat a “cookie” instead. Another example is the word for a sweater. In Britain, they call it a “jumper”, while in America, they call it a “sweater”. In Australia and Canada, they use both terms. Spelling is another way they are different. In Britain, they spell words like “colour” and “favourite” with a “u”. But in America, they spell them “color” and “favorite” without the “u”. Australians and Canadians usually follow American spelling, but they have some differences too. Even though they are different, all these ways of speaking English help people from different places understand each other. So, whether you’re drinking tea in London, coffee in New York, or a hot drink in Australia or Canada, remember that English is a language that connects us all, even with its little differences. 第 4 页（共 8页） 24. How many English-speaking countries are mentioned in the passage? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. 25. Which is NOT used to refer to a toilet in any of the countries in the passage? A. Loo. B. Bathroom. C. Lavatory. 26. The word “jumper” in the passage might be a kind of ______. A. clothing B. food C. animal 27. What is the best title for the text? A. The Differences in table manners B. How English is Spoken Around the World C. Different Languages in Different Countries C Festivals have always been an important part of life and culture. In the modern age, new festivals have appeared over time. Some of the new festivals came from other parts of the world; some appeared just because of the interesting meanings of the dates. International Women’s Day, International Museum Day and International Nurses’ Day are celebrated around the world. These are mostly days for a special group of people or a certain field. These festivals didn’t start in China, but we celebrate them in a Chinese way. For example, many Chinese students call International Women’s Day “Girls’ Day” or “Queens’ Day”. On this day, they have an interesting practice. They come up with interesting activity ideas, such as doing make-up or dressing up in Hanfu. Other new festivals include 520 Day, Eating Day (May 17th), Cute Day (October 10th) and Double 11 Day. 520 is a short form of the day of May 20th. In Chinese, it sounds a lot like “I love you” and 517 sounds like “I want to eat”. And the Chinese words for October l0th look like the Chinese word “meng”, which means “cute”. Double 11 Day is also known as Singles’ Day, because the date November 11th or “11.11” is all about the number “1”. So Double 11 Day is about single (单身者). People in China have celebrated Double 11 Day for a few years. And it is now one of the biggest shopping days in the world. For many young people, new festivals seem to be a lot more interesting than the old ones. But whether they are old or new, festivals always offer a great excuse for us to take a minute and appreciate life with our loved ones. 28. Which is mentioned as a new festival in the text? A. International Museum Day. B. International Women’s Day. C. Double 11 Day. 29. What’s the purpose of the example in paragraph 2? A. To tell us how we celebrate these festivals in a Chinese way. 第 5 页（共 8页） B. To tell us when to celebrate International Women’s Day. C. To tell us these festivals didn’t start in China. 30. What does the word “meng” in the text mean? A. Stupid. B. Cute. C. Angry. 31. Which of the following might the writer agree with? A. Festivals offer young people a chance to go shopping. B. New festivals appear only because these dates have interesting meanings. C. Festivals can give us a chance to spend with our friends and family members. 第二节 （共 4小题；每小题 2分，满分 8分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一个为多 余选项。 The Moon Festival, also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival, is celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar.

When I’m down or tired, I prefer movies that can cheer me up. Comedies like Men in Black or cartoons like Kungfu Panda have funny dialogues and usually have a happy ending. The characters may not be perfect, but they try their best to solve their problems. After watching them, I’m filled with hope again and the problems I have suddenly seem less serious. Laughing for two hours is a good way to relax! I don’t watch dramas or documentaries when I’m sad or tired. Dramas like Titanic make me feel even sadder. Documentaries like March of the Penguins which provide plenty of information about a certain subject can be interesting, but when I’m tired I don’t want to think too much. I don’t mind action movies like Spider-Man when I’m too tired to think. I can just shut off my brain, sit back and enjoy watching an exciting superhero who always saves the world just in time. Once in a while, I like to watch movies that are scary. They can be fun, but I’m too scared to watch them alone. I always bring a friend who isn’t afraid of these kinds of movies, and it doesn’t feel so scary anymore. 56. Why does the writer dislike dramas when he was sad or tired? ___________________________________________________________________________ 57. How many movies are mentioned in the passage? ___________________________________________________________________________ 58. Who does the writer always bring when watching scary movies? ___________________________________________________________________________ 59. Do you like watching cartoons?
