A newspaper C. A dictionary D. A novel B As we know, it is not enough to just ask a question correctly. We also need to learn how to be polite when we ask for help. Good speakers change the way they speak in different situations. The expressions they use might depend on whom they are speaking to or how well they know each other well. It is all right to ask direct questions to your classmates because you know them well. However, if you say to your teacher, “When is the school trip?”, this might sound impolite. But if you say, “Excuse me, Mr. West. Do you know when the school trip is?”, this will sound much more polite. Usually polite questions are longer. Sometimes we even need to spend time leading in to a request. It might seem more difficult to speak politely than directly but it is important to learn how to use the right language in different situations. This will help you communicate better with other people . ( )36. It is necessary to use some ______questions when we need other’s help. A. polite B. impolite C. direct D. politely ( )37.

Which of the following is TRUE? A. It’s just enough to ask for help correctly. B. we should change the way we speak when we speak to different persons. C. It might seem easier to speak politely than directly D. Speaking directly will help you communicate better with other people . ( )39.What’s the meaning of “in different situations” in this passage? A.在不同的条件下 B. 针对不同的人 C. 在不同的场合 D.在不同的文化里 ( )40.How can you communicate better with other people ? A. Use polite questions B. Make polite requests C. Use the right language D. Use the correct language C As you read this passage, you probably have some paper, a pen and at least one pencil in front of you. Have you ever wondered how they were first made and where they come from? The word “paper” comes from the name papyrus, a plant. The ancient Egyptians took the soft centre of this plant and added water to make a wet mixture which was then pressed together and hung up to dry. The resulting paper was strong yet flexible and was used as writing material in Greek(希腊) and Roman（罗马） times. However, it was the Chinese who invented what we now know as paper. The method, in use over 2,000 years ago, also involved pressing and drying wet material to form paper. Many materials were used. It was not until the 19th century that paper became easy to make and cheap to buy. The earliest pens were hollow reeds (空心芦苇) that were put into ink（墨水） to produce a form of writing. By the 6th century BCE, feathers（羽毛） had taken the place of the reeds and continued to be used until the appearance of the metal（金属） nib (笔 尖). The ballpoint pen was developed in the second half of the 20th century by the Hungarian Biro brothers. From the time of the Romans, a metal stick, made of lead (铅), was used to write on papyrus. The lead left only a light mark and was later replaced by another soft metal, called graphite (石墨). Unlike lead, graphite produced a much firmer and heavier line. The graphite sticks, however, broke very easily. So an Italian couple invented something a little like our modern pencil. ( )41．What does the underlined word “flexible” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．柔韧的 B．复杂的 C．舒适的 D．坚硬的 ( )42．When did the paper become easily to buy? A．In the 6th century. B．In the 12th century. C．In the 19th century. D．In the 20th century. ( )43．Which of the following is the correct order of pens’ development? ①feathers ②hollow reeds ③metal nib ④ballpoint pen A．①→②→④→③ B．②→①→③→④ C．④→②→①→③. D．②→④→①→③ ( )44．Why did pencil makers change the pencil sticks from lead to graphite? A．Because lead is harmful to people. B．Because lead breaks more easily. C．Because graphite makes darker lines. D．Because graphite can’t be found easily. ( )45．What does this passage mainly talk about? A．The benefit of the pen. B．The inventor of the pencil. C．The important inventions in China. D．The history of paper, pens and pencils. D Many people have sleep problems. 46. Here are some good ways for you to follow. Test your pillow (枕头). Experts suggest changing new pillows often. 47. If not, it can cause neck pain. When your brain senses the pain, you can’t sleep well. Get an hour of sunlight each day. 48. It’s necessary to get about 30 minutes’ direct light and 15-minute outdoor break during the day. It will make you have a sound sleep at night. 49. “More salt woke up people more often to go to the bathroom in the evening,” one doctor says. “When people cut down salt, their toilet trips were fewer than before,” he adds. Deal with your troubles before dinner. If you need to do with your troubles, don’ t wait until night. 50. A. Sunlight is useful for good sleep. B. Keep salty snacks away before bed. C.
