二、阅读单选
A
The song Happy Birthday to You is an example of just how interesting the world is. Think about this song-it is only 6 notes. Yet it is one of the best-known songs in the world. It was written in 1893 by Mildred and Patty Hill and first published with the words, “Good morning to you”.
The words “Happy Birthday to You” were first seen in print in 1924, although the author is unknown. The Clayton F. Summy Company became the song’s publisher in 1935. Through a series of purchases and acquisitions (收购), the song now belongs to AOL Time Warner. ASCAP represents the song for public performance licensing.
The copyright to Happy Birthday to You should have expired (过期) in 1991, but copyright Act of 1976 extended (延长) it, and the Copyright Term Extension Act of 1998 extended it again, so the song is protected until 2030 at least.
Happy Birthday to You brings in about $ 2 million per year. If you ever hear the song in a movie, TV show or an ad, a licensing fee has been paid. Any manufacturer that plays the song pays a licensing. The manufacturer of any musical card playing the songs pays a licensing fee. This 6-note song is a big business!

B
If you miss out a meal, do you ever notice yourself starting to get angry or annoyed very easily? Well, this is often known as being “hangry” or being angry because you are very hungry.
It’s not just a funny phrase, but is scientifically true! Scientists found this feeling of anger usually comes from having low glucose (葡萄糖) levels in the blood. Glucose is put into the body after you eat.
The brain also needs this to work correctly. When the body is low in glucose, the brain sends hormones (激素) to increase the amount of glucose in the body. Brenda Bustillos, a dietitian at Texas A&M University, the US, says, “Hunger leads to high stress hormones, which make it hard to manage our feelings.”
Amanda Salis, PhD, University of Sydney, says that we may also be able to thank our ancestors (祖先) for our “hanger”. Salis says that long ago when there was not much food, people had to be aggressive to eat as much as they could to get enough food to live. So even now when most people have enough food to eat, there is still that aggressive feeling toward needing food.
16.From Paragraph 1, we learn that “hangry” _______.
A.is “angry” spelled wrong B.is the wrong word for “hungry”
C.means that one is very hungry D.means being angry because of hunger
17.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Glucose in your body comes from the food you eat.
B.People may get angry easily because of low glucose levels.
C.Hormones can increase the amount of glucose in the body.
D.Hunger can cause high stress hormones in the brain.
18.What does the underlined word “aggressive” in the passage mean in Chinese?
A.好斗的 B.分享的 C.自私的 D.坚强的
19.The passage mainly talks about _______.
A.the reasons for getting angry B.the science behind being “hangry”
C.the changes of brain chemicals D.the importance of food
20.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Why do people feel hungry? B.Being hungry or being angry
C.Where does hunger come from? D.Anger comes hand in hand with hunger
三、阅读判断
阅读下面一篇短文,判断文后各小题的正(A)误(B)。
There are many colors in nature. But do you know if a color has weight? If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment (实验).
First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes. Wrap (包裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.
Why does it happen? A scientist found that different colors have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind. The heaviest color is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.
According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the color they like, and refuse the color they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture (家具) for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only one hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change when we see different colors.
21.A color has weight in a man’s mind.
22.Red is the lightest color in a man’s mind.
23.Using the color you don’t like will keep you healthy.
24.Your temperature will fall when you get into a cool colored room from a warm colored room.
25.According to the passage, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours if you stay in a red room for an hour.

My Favorite Chinese Traditional Festival
There are many traditional festivals in China, such as the Spring Festival, the Mid - Autumn Festival and the Dragon Boat Festival. My favorite one is the Spring Festival.
The Spring Festival is the most important festival in China. It usually comes in January or February. On that day, people get together with their families. We clean our houses thoroughly to sweep away bad luck and then decorate them with red couplets and lanterns. Red is a lucky color in China, which can bring us good luck.
In the evening, the whole family sits around the table and has a big meal. We eat dumplings, which are a symbol of wealth and good luck. After the meal, we watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV. Children can get lucky money from their elders, which is wrapped in red envelopes.
I love the Spring Festival because it makes me feel the warmth of the family. It is a time for reunion and celebration. We can enjoy the delicious food, wear new clothes and have a great time with our relatives and friends. It is really an interesting and unforgettable festival.
