In the past 16 years, not one student has got hit by a car. However, Tang got hit twice. That didn't stop him from helping students. “I always feel happy when I see students cross the road safely,” he said. Tang retired from teaching in 2017.

He even dreamed of filming (拍摄 ) and studying fish under the sea. But he didn’t start to do that until he was in his twenties. Juan describes a normal workday on his 45-meter boat: I get up before everyone else. I have breakfast and jump into the sea as soon as I can. I usually work underwater three or four times a day. I film anything that looks interesting. In the afternoon, I make notes about my work on my computer. After dinner, I’m usually so tired that I go to bed. My friends sometimes invite me to go to a party, but I’m always asleep by the time the fun starts. I work hard, but I don’t need holidays. I have so much fun every day! My friends often say that they would like to have a job like mine. They need to pay a lot of money to spend their holidays in interesting places, but they can’t see so many unusual fish. Juan is planning to do some underwater filming in the Queensmen Islands soon. “I’ve never visited those islands,” he said. “I’d like to study the plants and fish there.” 29.

Some even use digital recorders to record what teachers say in class. The children are clever to make use of technology (技术).They might think there are too many notes to take. They might also think that teachers write too fast. They are just trying to find ways to make things easier. But so digital cameras or recorders really make taking notes easier? Not really! Before you can read the notes on your digital cameras, there are a lot of things to do. You have to find a computer to download the photos. You also have to find a printer to print the photos out. To listen to the sounds from the digital recorder is even harder. There is usually a lot of noise with what you have recorded. You will have to listen to it several times before everything is clear. In fact, taking notes by hand really helps you to remember and understand what you are learning. You only need to write down key points. You don’t have to write down everything. 33. Why do some students use digital cameras and recorders in class? A. Because they want to take pictures of what their teachers write on the blackboard. B. Because they want to record what their teachers say in class. C. Because they want to show they are clever to make use of technology. D. Both A and B. 34.

Because there is usually a lot of noise with sound and you’ll have to listen to it several times to make everything clear. D.Because teachers don’t allow them to bring recorders into class. 36. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A.Taking notes by hand of everything that the teachers write on the blackboard is necessary. B.Taking notes by hand is helpful for remembering and understanding what you are learning. C.Taking notes of the most important things can save your time. D.Digital cameras or recorders don’t make taking notes easier. 第二节（共 4小题，每小题 2分，共 8分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有一个为多余选项。 What is a school bully?

In the dictionary, a supermarket is a large self-service department store. Some supermarkets have two floors. When you enter such a supermarket, an elevator will take you to the second floor. Here you can buy things such as CDs, pens, clothes, TVs and refrigerators. After you have collected the things you want to buy on the second floor, you can go downstairs to the first floor where food and drinks are sold. You can also buy fresh fruit, vegetables and meat on this floor. People like to go shopping in the supermarket. Here are some of the reasons. First, the prices are reasonable. The prices are lower than in special shops and you can choose whatever you want, without going place to place. Second, the service is excellent. You can walk around freely and no one will ask you “What can I do for you?” If you can’t find something, just ask a service person and he or she will tell you where it is at once. Third, the quality is good. If you get home and find the food has gone bad, you can return it and they will say sorry and change it for you. Nowadays many people don’t have much time to walk from one shop to another, so people choose to go to the supermarket in order to save time and money. What’s more, if you don’t want to buy anything, you can just come and look around in the supermarket. It’s a good place to have a walk. 71.
