Ten years ago, there were even no these names. Today they have been part of people’s daily life, especially the teenagers’ daily life. In fact, they are three of the most popular websites. In the early days of World Wide Web (万维网), writers and editors wrote articles or took photos for a certain website. As users, we could only read things that others had written. It was not much different from reading a newspaper or a book. The only difference was one thing—the words were on a screen, not on paper. In the last five years, all that has changed. Since the websites like Bebo and Facebook appeared, they have become more and more popular. Why are these new websites so popular? Unlike those past websites, these new websites allow users to make the web pages of their own. So every day many articles, photos and home-made films are on show on the websites. They’re interactive. You can communicate with people on the other side of the world. If you read an article online and don’t agree with the writer, you can write a message to the writer on the website. 26．The first paragraph tells us that Facebook, MySpace and YouTube are the names of________.

So you can easily understand whether people are at home or not. But I used to park my car in the car barn (车库) when I was on holiday. It was a Sunday morning. I got up early and went to the garden behind our house with my husband. We planted some flowers and trees there. About one hours later, I heard our lazy dog yipping (犬吠) in our house. I at once realized that something must be happening in the house. Quickly, my husband and I came back to the house and saw a boy rush out of our house and run away. “Come in and see what was gone.” My husband said. “He must think nobody is in.” “Shall I go to run after him or call the police?” my husband asked. “No, after all, we have nothing lost.” I replied. Some days later, a woman with the boy came to my house and asked, “Is it your dog? I found that it killed my chicken yesterday, and I wanted to kill it. But my son said it was yours.” When I was shaking hands with the boy to thank him. I felt something hard in my hand. I wanted to say something, but he has run away again. 根据短文内容，回答下面问题。 67．How can you know whether people are at home in American countryside? 68．Where was the writer when the dog yipped? 69．What did the couple (夫妇) find missing after the boy ran away? 70．Why did the woman want to kill the dog? 71．Did the writer feel embarrassed when she knew the fact? 【答案】67．People often park their cars in the yard when they are at home. 68．In the garden behind their house. 69．Nothing. 70．Because it killed her chicken yesterday. 71．Yes, she did. 【分析】本文是记叙文，作者讲述了和丈夫在花园里种花时，邻居男孩偷偷跑进她家，但他们没有报警；几天后才知道是自家的狗吃了邻居的鸡，男孩母亲想杀死作者家的狗，正是男孩阻止了他的母亲。 67．根据第一段“In American countryside, people often park their cars in the yard when they are at home. So you can easily understand whether people are at home or not”，可知人们在家时经常把车停在院子里，故填People often park their cars in the yard when they are at home。 68．根据第二段“I got up early and went to the garden behind our house with my husband…I heard our lazy dog yipping in our house”，可知作者在他们房子后面的花园里，故填In the garden behind their house。 69．根据第五段丈夫的话“after all, we have nothing lost”，可知没丢东西，故填Nothing。 70．根据第六段“I found that it killed my chicken yesterday, and I wanted to kill it”，可知是因为那只狗昨天咬死了她的鸡，故填Because it killed her chicken yesterday。 71．根据最后一段“When I was shaking hands with the boy to thank him”，可知作者误会了男孩应该是感到尴尬，需作肯定回答，故填Yes, she did。 B.书面表达（10 分） 72．你校英语报正举办以“My Country, My Pride (骄傲)”为主题的征文活动。请你写一篇短文投稿。内容包括： 1. 简要阐述在环境、文化、旅游以及科技等4个方面中国近几年的变化； 2. 谈谈你的感想。 注意： 1. 词数100左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3. 文中不得出现真实的姓名、校名等关键信息。 My Country, My Pride ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文： My Country, My Pride Obviously, great changes have taken place in China these years.

Ten years ago, there were even no these names. Today they have been part of people’s daily life, especially the teenagers’ daily life. In fact, they are three of the most popular websites. In the early days of World Wide Web (万维网), writers and editors wrote articles or took photos for a certain website. As users, we could only read things that others had written. It was not much different from reading a newspaper or a book. The only difference was one thing—the words were on a screen, not on paper. In the last five years, all that has changed. Since the websites like Bebo and Facebook appeared, they have become more and more popular. Why are these new websites so popular? Unlike those past websites, these new websites allow users to make the web pages of their own. So every day many articles, photos and home-made films are on show on the websites. They’re interactive. You can communicate with people on the other side of the world. If you read an article online and don’t agree with the writer, you can write a message to the writer on the website. 26．The first paragraph tells us that Facebook, MySpace and YouTube are the names of________. A．books B．websites C．articles D．people 27．The underlined word “they” in the third paragraph refers to “________”. A．some new websites B．some interesting articles C．some photos online D．some books online 28．The underlined word “interactive” means “________” in Chinese.

D．Now people can write articles on Facebook. 30．Which can be the best title of the passage? A．Some popular websites B．The new World Wide Web C．The past and present of World Wide Web D．How to express yourself on websites C Question: Did you use to be shy?
