三、阅读理解
Buck's first day in the frozen Northland was terrible. Every hour there was filled with shock and frightening surprise. Here was neither peace, nor rest, nor a moment's safety—only endless noise and movement. At every moment life itself was in danger, because these dogs and men were not town dogs and men. They knew only the law of club and tooth.
Buck had never seen dogs fight like these dogs: they were like wolves. He learnt this from his friend Curly. She tried to make friends with a big dog. But without warning, the dog jumped on Curly. Curly's face was torn open from eye to mouth. And the fight did not finish then. More dogs ran up and made a circle around the fight, watching silently. Curly tried to attack the dog who had bitten her. He bit her a second time, and jumped away. When Curly tried to attack again, he knocked her backwards. And she fell on the ground. Curly never stood up, and this was what the other dogs were waiting for. In a moment, she was under a crowd of dogs. Then Francois and other men with clubs jumped in among the dogs. Soon the dogs were chased away. But Curly lay dead in the snow, her body torn almost to pieces. Curly's death often came back to Buck in his dreams. He understood that once a dog was down on the ground, he was dead.
That night Buck discovered a problem. Where was he going to sleep? He found Francois was in the tent. Buck followed him quietly. But when he went in and wanted to sleep in the corner, Francois shouted angrily and beat him with a club. Buck ran out and walked around the tent, very, very cold, wondering what to do. Suddenly, the snow under his feet fell in, and he felt something move. He jumped back, waiting for the attack, but heard only a friendly bark. There, in a warm hole under the snow, was Billee. So he knew what he could do. _______. He slept well, although his dreams were bad.
In the north, Buck was learning the law of club and tooth. He learnt to eat any food—anything that he could get his teeth into. He learnt to break the ice on water holes with his feet when he wanted to drink. He learnt to travel through the forest and kill for meat with wild dogs. He was stronger, and could see and smell better than ever before. It was easy for him to learn to fight like a wolf, because it was in his blood.
( ) 1. Buck's first day in the frozen Northland , what was there filled with?
A. peace B. rest C. safety D. shock and frightening surprise
( ) 2. Curly lost her life because ________.
A. she didn't want to fight with a husky
B. she was not so large as a husky
C. she was warned not to attack a husky
D. she didn't know that life itself was in danger at any time
( ) 3. Curly's death made Buck realize _________ in the north.
①how terrible the new life was ②the secret of winning a friend
③how dangerous the men were ④the importance of fighting like wolves
A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①④ D. ③④
( ) 4. Which of the following can be put in ______in paragraph 3.
A. Buck slept outside the tent silently
B. Buck lay on the snow and finally fell asleep
C. Buck ran into the tent secretly and rested in the corner
D. Buck dug himself a hole and soon was warm and asleep
( ) 5. What's the best title for the passage?

八、阅读回答问题,每个问题答案不超过六个词
We all have our own ways of sharing our life experiences with others. Photographers use cameras, artists use brushes, musicians use songs and writers use stories.
Spencer Johnson’s story Who Moved My Cheese? shows changes exist in(存在于) our life. Life changes and so we do. We must change ourselves to face the changing environment, or we will fail.
Just look at the cycle of the seasons. Trees bud(发芽) in spring and in summer their leaves turn green. In autumn, their leaves start to fall onto the ground. When winter arrives, there are no leaves on trees. Next spring the cycle begins again. Since we know there are cycles in nature, we can prepare for them. We know it is colder in winter and hotter in summer, so we can dress properly.
Since we accept the cycles of nature, we should also accept the changes in our life.
We can prepare ourselves for changes by becoming more flexible(灵活的). We can regard the changes in our life as chances. As we keep changing ourselves, we can keep up with the changes in our life. So we should change ourselves when life changes.
