When I was a boy, I sometimes hated others for what they did...” As the boy listened carefully, the grandfather went on, “There are always two tigers inside my heart. One is good and kind. He gets on well with everything around him. But the other is bad and unfriendly. Even the smallest thing will make him angry. He fights with everyone all the time, and for no reason. He can’t think carefully because he always hates others. It is difficult to live with these two tigers inside my heart. They both try to control (控制) me.” The boy looked into his grandfather’ s eyes and asked, “Which tiger always controls you, Grandfather?” The old man said slowly and seriously, “The one that I feed.

(B) China is famous for its china (瓷器), which is popular for thousands of years. China is made from clay and other materials. People first shape them into different forms, such as bowls, plates and vases. Then they put them on fire to make them hard and smooth. This makes them strong and easy to use. China is famous for its beautiful colours and designs. The colours are usually bright, such as blue, white and red. The designs can be very detailed (精细的), including flowers, birds and dragons. China is made from everyday materials and mainly made for everyday use. But you can also see fine china in the museum too. As china becomes more popular, it goes into other countries. It is highly prized for its beauty and quality. It is a symbol of Chinese culture and craftsmanship. Since china is very popular and highly valued around the world, many artists collect it as a hobby. 15. Which step makes the china hard and smooth? A. Designing it with patterns like flowers. B. Mixing clay and other materials together. C. Shaping clay into different forms. D. Putting china in different forms on fire. 16. What is china famous for? A. Its cultural background. B.

In space, astronauts can’t eat the same food as we do on Earth. Their food is specially prepared. It is often dried or in tubes (管子). They need to add water to some of the food before eating. And they have to be careful not to let the food float away. Sleeping is also difficult. Astronauts sleep in special sleeping bags. They need to tie the sleeping bags to the wall or their beds because there is no gravity. If they don’t do this, they will float around in the spaceship. Astronauts also have to exercise regularly. Without gravity, their muscles will become weak. So they use special exercise equipment in the spaceship to keep their muscles strong. Communication is another problem. Although astronauts can talk to people on Earth, there is a time-delay (延迟) because of the long distance. Sometimes they have to wait for a few seconds or even minutes to get a reply. Despite these challenges, astronauts enjoy their life in space. They get to see the beautiful Earth from space and do scientific experiments that can’t be done on Earth. 19. Astronauts’ food in space is often ________. A. fresh and delicious B. dried or in tubes C. the same as on Earth D. clean and wet 20. Astronauts tie their sleeping bags to the wall or beds because ________. A. they like to sleep in a fixed place B. it is more relaxing C. it is more comfortable D. there is no gravity 21. Astronauts use special exercise equipment to ________. A. have fun B. keep their muscles strong C. make the spaceship move faster D. keep safe 22. What is the best title for the passage? A. Astronauts and spaceships B. Special experiments C. Astronauts’ Life in Space D. Scientific experiments (D) ①Do you have true friends? Who do you usually ask for help? Do you want to know better between you and your friends? There are three different kinds of friends: “pest fiends”, “guest friends” and “best friends”. ②The first kind of friends is simply an acquaintance. All you usually know about them is their names. You may meet this kind of friends at school, at work, or on the bus, but you don’t miss them when they’re not around. When this kind of friends does something bad, you don’t tell them. That is why they are called “pest friends”. ③The second kind of friends could also be called “social partners”. They are closer than acquaintances, but not as close as true friends. You know their names, a little of what they like or dislike, and a little of their family histories. You usually have a few things in common, but you don’t talk about anything deep, such as your wishes or fears, and they don’t open up to you how they really feel. ④The last kind of friends, the “best friend”, is the one you know the deepest. You’re like family, and know everything about each other. You have no problem staying at each other’s houses, and you share your deepest feelings and thoughts. They will correct you when you’re wrong. Sometimes they may not be perfect, but at least they will always care about you, and never do anything on purpose (故意地) to hurt you. ⑤We all have our pest, guest, and best friends. We should value all friendships and remember, all best friends start out as just acquaintances. 23. The underlined word “acquaintance” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________ in Chinese. A. 熟人 B. 陌生人 C. 同事 D. 邻居 24. If you and John are neighbors and classmates, and do things together, but don’t share your feelings, you are ________. A. pest friends B. guest friends C. best friends D. true friends 25. The fourth paragraph mainly tells us ________. A. how to learn from your best friends B. how to make a best friend C. what a best friend is D. a best friend can help to correct you 26. Which of the following shows the structure (结构) of the passage? A. B. C. D. 第二节（共4小题；每小题2分，满分8分） 阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，从下面的五个选项中选择四个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺、结构完整（一空一句）。 Middle school life is not so easy.
