My mother was a servant (家政工作者). Through her work, she found that 11 people spent a lot more time reading than watching TV. She called my brother and me to the old wooden table at home and said that my brother and I could 12 watch two TV programs during the week, even on weekends. We had to read two books each from the community library and 13 book reports on the rough notebook paper she bought. She would sit by the lamp, look at the paper, and mark (做标记) them with checks (√). Years later we realised her 14 were a trick (诡计；骗局)—she’d just draw random checks. My mother was a person unable to read a word. When I entered high school, I was a (n) 15 student, but not for long. I started noticing my classmates’ brand-new jackets and shoes, wanting fancy clothes myself. I wanted to 16 the cool boys who hung out by the school gate after class. Slowly, I failed tests, going from being an A-student to a C-student. One night my mother 17 her jobs—she usually cleaned three houses a day—and came home early to talk to me. I complained about not having Italian 18 like my classmates. She sat quietly for a minute, then said, “Okay, take all the money I made this week and buy 19 food and pay the bills. With everything left over, you can have the Italian shirts you want.” I was very 20 to hear her words, jumping up to hug her. But once I got through spending money for rice, vegetables, rent, and my brother’s school supplies, there was 21 left. At that time, I realised how difficult it was for my mother to 22 our family with her small income (收入). I also realised that fancy clothes weren’t going to get me anywhere. I went back to my 23 and became an A-student again. Now I’ve become a doctor that I always dreamed of. My story is really my mother’s story. 24 she’s a woman with little education or money, she used her wisdom as a parent to 25 my life, pulling me back from the wrong path. There is no job more important than parenting. This is what I believe in. 11．A．careful B．healthy C．friendly D．successful 12．A．also B．only C．ever D．still 13．A．give up B．write down C．put away D．find out 14．A．reports B．books C．marks D．programs 15．A．lazy B．poor C．excellent D．popular 16．A．beat B．follow C．help D．teach 17．A．continued B．stopped C．understood D．offered 18．A．pizza B．noodles C．shoes D．shirts 19．A．us B．her C．him D．them 20．A．angry B．excited C．relaxed D．sad 21．A．nothing B．something C．everything D．anything 22．A．support B．greet C．enter D．teach 23．A．family B．team C．study D．program 24．A．Because B．When C．Although D．If 25．A．welcome B．change C．start D．stop 【答案】 11．D 12．B 13．B 14．C 15．C 16．B 17．B 18．D 19．A 20．B 21．A 22．A 23．C 24．C 25．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的母亲虽然是一个没有受过教育、收入微薄的家政工作者，但她用智慧引导作者走上正确的道路，最终作者实现了成为医生的梦想。 11．句意：通过她的工作，她发现成功人士花在阅读上的时间比看电视多得多。 careful细心的；healthy健康的；friendly友好的；successful成功的。根据“Through her work, she found that…people spent a lot more time reading than watching TV”可知，母亲发现成功人士更注重阅读，这里说的是成功人士的行为特点。故选D。 12．句意：她说我和弟弟每周只能看两个电视节目，即使是周末。 also也；only仅仅；ever曾经；still仍然。根据“and said that my brother and I could…watch two TV programs during the week”可知，母亲严格限制看电视的数量，所以是 “只能” 看两个节目。故选B。 13．句意：我们必须从社区图书馆借两本书，并在她买的粗糙笔记本纸上写下读书报告。 give up放弃；write down写下；put away收好；find out发现。根据“We had to read two books each from the community library and… book reports on the rough notebook paper she bought”可知，母亲要求他们写读书报告。故选B。 14．句意：多年后我们意识到她的标记是一个诡计。 reports报告；books书籍；marks标记；programs节目。根据“Years later we realised her…were a trick”可推知结论，母亲用随机打勾的方式，在读书报告上做标记。故选C。 15．句意：当我进入高中时，我是一个优秀的学生，但时间不长。 lazy懒惰的；poor贫穷的；excellent优秀的；popular受欢迎的。根据“going from being an A-student to a C-student”可知，作者起初成绩优异。故选C。 16．句意：我想追随那些放学后在校门口闲逛的酷男孩们。 beat打败；follow跟随；help帮助；teach教导。根据“I wanted to…the cool boys who hung out by the school gate after class”可知，作者被不良同伴吸引，作者想和那些酷男孩一样，所以是 “追随” 他们。故选B。 17．句意：一天晚上，母亲停下了她的工作——她通常一天打扫三所房子——提前回家和我谈话。 continued继续；stopped停止；understood理解；offered提供。根据“One night my mother…her jobs…and came home early to talk to me”可知，妈妈提前回家，所以是停下了工作。故选B。 18．句意：我抱怨没有像同学那样拥有意大利衬衫。 pizza披萨；noodles面条；shoes鞋子；shirts衬衫。根据“you can have the Italian shirts you want”，可知这里说的是衬衫。故选D。 19．句意：她说：“好吧，把我这周挣的钱都拿去给我们买食物和付账单。” us我们；her她；him他；them他们。根据“take all the money I made this week and buy…food and pay the bills”可知，买的是 “我们” 的食物。故选A。 20．句意：听到她的话我非常兴奋，跳起来拥抱她。 angry生气的；excited兴奋的；relaxed放松的；sad悲伤的。根据“I was very…to hear her words, jumping up to hug her”可推知结论，作者误以为能自由支配钱，所以很兴奋。故选B。 21．句意：但当我买完大米、蔬菜、房租和弟弟的学习用品后，什么也没剩下。 nothing没有东西；something某物；everything一切；anything任何东西。根据“But once I got through spending money for rice, vegetables, rent, and my brother’s school supplies, there was …left”可知，钱都花在必要的开支上了，所以没剩下什么。故选A。 22．句意：那时我意识到母亲用微薄的收入支撑我们的家庭是多么困难。 support支撑；greet问候；enter进入；teach教导。根据“how difficult it was for my mother to…our family with her small income”可知，母亲艰难维持生计，“support our family” 表示 “养活我们家”。故选A。 23．句意：我回到了学习中，再次成为优等生。 family家庭；team团队；study学习；program节目。根据“I went back to my…and became an A-student again”可知，要成为优等生，需要回归学习。故选C。 24．句意：尽管她是一个没什么文化和钱的女人，但她用作为父母的智慧改变了我的生活，把我从错误的道路上拉了回来。 Because因为；When当……时；Although尽管；If如果。根据“…she’s a woman with little education or money”可推知结论，此处为让步关系。故选C。 25．句意：但她用作为父母的智慧改变了我的生活，把我从错误的道路上拉了回来。 welcome欢迎；change改变；start开始；stop停止。根据“she used her wisdom as a parent to …my life”可知，母亲的引导让作者的人生发生了改变。故选B。 三、阅读理解（共20小题;每小题2分, 满分40分） A）请认真阅读下列材料, 从材料后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。 A Join the 24-Hour Screen-Free Challenge!

They were the first people to live in New Zealand. In the late 18th century, Europeans came to live in New Zealand. At that time, the population of the Maori was maybe 250,000 in New Zealand. Over the next one hundred years, wars and disease killed many Maori people. By the end of the 19th century, there were only about 40,000 Maori people left. During this time, the Maori also lost much of their land to the Europeans. Many of them were afraid that they might lose their traditions and language too, but this did not happen. Today, the Maori population is increasing. There are about 500,000 Maori people in New Zealand. Most live like other New Zealanders, but they are keeping the Maori language and traditions alive. There are now Maori radio and television stations. Many schools teach in the Maori language. Nearly one-half of Maori language speakers are 25 years old or younger. Maori culture is also alive and well. At the center of Maori culture is the “marae”. This is a special place for ceremonies and meetings. Today the number of marae in New Zealand is increasing. Many of the new marae are in the cities. Now people in the cities can meet and learn about their Maori traditions. Today, most New Zealand cities have Maori festivals each year. Among festival activities are competitions in speaking, dancing and singing. Children practice for months. Then all the Maori in the area arrive to watch the competitions and see who wins. The Maori have gone through hard times. Today, they live a comfortable, modern life. They keep their cultural traditions alive, because they have passed and are passing them on to their children. 29．When did the Maori first arrive in New Zealand? A．Around 11th century. B．Around 14th century. C．Around 16th century. D．Around 18th century. 30．What happened to the Maori during the 19th century? A．They owned more land. B．They lost their language. C．They left New Zealand. D．They had a smaller population. 31．How do the Maori keep their traditions alive? a. Increase the number of marae. b. Move to the center of New Zealand. c. Set up Maori radio and TV stations. d. Teach in the Maori language in many schools. e. Hold competitions in speaking, dancing and singing. A．bcde B．abcd C．abde D．acde 32．What would be the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】29．A 30．D 31．D 32．C 【导语】本文介绍了新西兰毛利人的历史、文化传承及现状，他们虽然经历过战争和疾病的困难时期，但如今通过语言教育、媒体和节日活动等方式保持了传统文化的活力。 29．细节理解题。根据“The Maori arrived in New Zealand from Polynesian islands about a thousand years ago.”可知，大约在公元11世纪毛利人到达新西兰。故选A。 30．细节理解题。根据“Over the next one hundred years, wars and disease killed many Maori people. By the end of the 19th century, there were only about 40,000 Maori people left.”可知，19世纪毛利人口急剧减少。故选D。 31．细节理解题。根据“There are now Maori radio and television stations.”“Many schools teach in the Maori language.”“At the center of Maori culture is the ‘marae’… the number of marae in New Zealand is increasing.”“Among festival activities are competitions in speaking, dancing and singing.”可知，毛利人通过增加marae数量、开设电台电视、在学校教授语言、举办比赛来保持传统。即a、c、d、e。故选D。 32．篇章结构题。分析文章内容可知，第一、二两段介绍毛利人古时的情况，第三、四、五段介绍毛利人现在的情况，第六段进行总结。故选C。 C Sports might have started as a way to survive. Long ago, people ran, jumped, and climbed to stay alive. Hunters were known for their special skills. Wall paintings from centuries ago, showing activities like wrestling or dancing, were found in an Egyptian tomb. The ancient Greeks made a big change by holding the first Olympic Games. Modern sports began in England in the early 19th century and then spread globally. These became the models for sports such as football that we play now. Sports come in many shapes and sizes. Organized sports, whether swimming or ice hockey, are serious forms of play. There are rules to obey, skills and positions to learn, and plans to carry out. Team sports like soccer require you to work with teammates, while individual (个人的) sports such as tennis focus on your personal performance. There’s no doubt that sports are valuable. The American Academy of Pediatrics says play is important for kids’ and teens’ thinking, bodies, social lives and feelings. Sports exercise our bodies and teach us about ourselves and our world. Organized sports get us using our bodies and minds, which makes us more imaginative, curious, and creative. The skills we learn can help us in school and later at work. In an ideal world, sports would always be fun. But in reality, sports can cause physical hurt like broken bones, and also harm in mind. In team sports, misunderstandings and hurt feelings are part of the learning process. Sports are supposed to bring people together, but they can also drive people apart. But even when they’re not always a cheerful experience, they show us how to face life’s challenges. You don’t have to be on a school team. But many, like school coaches, have found ways to make play their work, which makes them feel whole. There’s no better place to play and learn about the world than on a sports field. No matter what sport you choose, the key is to play for fun. When you do, you’re already a winner. 33．In which part of a newspaper can we probably read this passage? A．Travel. B．Nature. C．Technology. D．Entertainment. 34．Why is play important for teenagers according to the passage? A．It reduces their physical hurt easily. B．It improves their mind and body health. C．It helps them have more time for sleep. D．It teaches them how to win competitions. 35．Which of the following is the writer’s opinion? A．People should try to become a famous athlete. B．People can play mainly for fun and enjoyment. C．Trying team sports is better than individual ones. D．Avoiding sports that cause hurt is the best choice. 36．What may be the best title for the passage? A．The Styles of Sports B．The History of Sports C．The Charm of Sports D．The Challenges of Sports 【答案】33．D 34．B 35．B 36．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了体育运动的起源、发展、类型、价值以及其带来的利弊，强调无论选择何种运动，关键是享受乐趣。 33．推理判断题。本文主要讲述了体育运动的起源、发展、类型、价值以及其带来的利弊，属于娱乐休闲范畴，故最有可能出现在报纸的娱乐版块。故选D。 34．细节理解题。根据“The American Academy of Pediatrics says play is important for kids’ and teens’ thinking, bodies, social lives and feelings. Sports exercise our bodies and teach us about ourselves and our world”可知，玩耍对青少年的思维、身体、社交生活和情感都很重要，体育运动能锻炼我们的身体，让我们了解自己和世界，即玩耍能改善青少年的身心健康。故选B。 35．推理判断题。根据“No matter what sport you choose, the key is to play for fun. When you do, you’re already a winner.”可知，无论选择什么运动，关键是享受乐趣，当你这样做的时候，你已经是赢家了，由此可推测出作者认为人们可以主要是为了乐趣和享受而运动。故选B。 36．最佳标题题。本文主要讲述了体育运动的起源、发展、类型、价值以及其带来的利弊，强调无论选择何种运动，关键是享受乐趣，以选项C“运动的魅力”为标题最合适。故选C。 D Britain has laws to make sure that women have the same opportunities as men in education, jobs and training. But it’s still unusual to find women doing dirty or heavy jobs. Nikki Honriques is a car maintenance engineer in London. She used to be a secretary, Barty Philips, a journalist with “The Observe”, a Sunday newspaper, asked her why she wanted to work cars. “My first reason was independence,” she said. “1 also wanted to use my hands, and I like learning about how things work. Many people prefer to have a woman repair their cars, too.” Nikki didn’t find it easy to become a car maintenance engineer. She went to Government Skills Centre — a special sort of college where people can learn a new job — for twenty weeks. “For ten weeks I was the only woman among four hundred men, and some of them were rude to me, just because of my sex. It was also very tiring — from 8 in the morning to 5 in the afternoon, with only 30 minutes for lunch.” Now Nikki works free-lance — that is, she’s self-employed, not working for a garage or a company. Barty Philips also spoke to Rose, who works as a general builder in Sheffield, an industrial town in the north of England. Like Nikki, Rose used to be a secretary. “I didn’t enjoy it at all,” she said. “I wanted to do more practical work, and I wanted to be self-employed.” Rose joined a women’s building co-operative, and she learnt her job from other people and from experience. However, many of the women in her group have been specially trained. Most of the jobs they do are improvements to buildings and general repairs. “People often say, ‘Oh, women aren’t strong enough’, but I don’t think strength is important,” said Rose. “The important thing is to get used to doing a different sort of work.” Rose would like more women to come into the building industry. “Everything built at the moment is a product of man’s world. If women become builders, they will be able to understand the production of their houses and their towns.” 37．Why did Nikki Honriques want to be a car maintenance engineer? A．Because she wanted to be a dependent woman. B．Because she wanted to repair her cars. C．Because she wanted to learn about how things work. D．Because she wanted to be rich. 38．How long did Nikki Honriques have to work before she became an engineer? A．About ten weeks per year. B．About twenty weeks per year. C．About nine hours per day. D．Advice them to the airport and take a trip . 39．What does the underlined word “self-employed” mean? A．working for herself. B．working for a company. C．working for money. D．working for government. 40．What can we infer from the passage? A．The woman in Britain like doing dirty or heavy jobs in factories. B．Rose became a car maintenance engineer like Nikki Honriques. C．More and more women come into the Britain building industry. D．Nikki Honriques and Rose are both very brave and hard-working. 【答案】37．C 38．C 39．A 40．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了在英国一些女性遵从自己的意愿选择从事繁重且脏的工作。 37．细节理解题。根据“1 also wanted to use my hands, and I like learning about how things work”可知Nikki Honriques喜欢学习关于事物是怎样工作的，所以她想要成为一个汽车维修工程师，故选C。 38．细节理解题。根据“It was also very tiring — from 8 in the morning to 5 in the afternoon,”可知Nikki Honriques每天要从早上8点工作到晚上5点，共9个小时，故选C。 39．词义猜测题。根据“not working for a garage or a company.”可知Nikki Honriques不为一个汽车修理厂工作，也不为一个公司工作，所以猜测应是为自己工作，故选A。 40．推理判断题。根据文章可知Nikki Honriques和Rose都勇敢的追求自己的梦想，并为实现自己的梦想放弃安逸的生活，刻苦学习和工作，所以判断她俩都是勇敢勤奋的人，故选D。 B）阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的五个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯，意思完整。 Red is a national colour in China. 41 People use it a lot, from celebrations and festivals to everyday life.

Here are some studies about sleep. Read on and find some 52 (suggest). Sometimes, songs get stuck (挥之不去) in our heads while we stay 53 (wake). We call them earworms. They can happen during sleep as well. According to a study, if people listen to a lot of music during the day, it may take them longer 54 (fall) asleep and they may wake up more times during the night. So we shouldn’t listen to music 55 going to bed as it may be worse for our sleep. 56 (wear) socks to bed can help us fall asleep faster! Studies say it can help people fall asleep 15 minutes 57 (early) and they won’t wake up so many times at night. In fact, when we fall asleep, our body temperature goes down. Our body 58 (change) the temperature using blood vessels (血管) in our skin. Socks make our feet warm and help widen blood vessels. Wide blood vessels help lower our temperature, so we get sleepy easily and soon fall asleep. When should we go to bed if we want to get up at 7 a.m.? A smart sleep calculator (计算器) by UK company Hillarys can tell us. Tell it when we need to get up, and it 59 (work) out what time we need to go to bed. Usually, humans sleep in 90-minute cycles. We have four or five cycles each night. If we wake up during a cycle, we will feel tired. The calculator also uses this information to keep us 60 waking during a cycle so that we feel great after waking up. 【答案】 51．A 52．suggestions 53．awake 54．to fall 55．before 56．Wearing 57．earlier 58．changes 59．will work 60．from 【导语】本文主要介绍如何获得好的睡眠。 51．句意：好的睡眠给我们能量并让我们感到更开心。根据语境可知，此处表示泛指，由于good是辅音音素开头所以用不定冠词a，放句首大写首字母。故填A。 52．句意：往下读找到一些建议。根据横线前有some，后加可数名词复数，所以将suggest变为suggestions“建议”。故填suggestions。 53．句意：有时，当我们保持清醒时，歌曲会在我们的脑海中挥之不去。分析句子可知，stay是系动词，后加形容词，所以将wake变为awake“醒着的”。故填awake。 54．句意：根据一项研究，如果人们白天听很多音乐，他们可能需要更长的时间才能入睡，晚上醒来的次数也可能更多。考查句型结构“it takes sb. some time to do”，所以横线上是不定式结构作真正主语。故填to fall。 55．句意：所以我们不应该在睡前听音乐，因为这可能对我们的睡眠更不利。根据常识可知睡觉前听歌，歌曲会在脑海中，影响睡眠。故填before。 56．句意：穿袜子睡觉能帮我们更快入睡！分析句子可知，动名词作主语，所以将wear变为wearing，置于句首首字母应该大写。故填Wearing。 57．句意：研究说它能帮助人们提早15分钟入睡。根据语境可知与不穿袜子作比较，所以是比较级。故填earlier。 58．句意：我们的身体通过皮肤中的血管来改变温度。分析句子可知，此句描述客观事实，所以是一般现在时，由于主语是三单，所以是将change变为changes。故填changes。 59．句意：告诉它我们什么时候需要起床，它就会算出我们什么时候睡觉。根据语境，应是它将算出，所以时态为将来时，所以将work变为will work。故填will work。 60．句意：这个计算器还利用这个信息让我们不要在一个周期中醒来，这样我们醒来后感觉很好。考查短语“keep sb. from doing”阻止某人做某事。故填from。 五、阅读与表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，回答短文后问题。 What do you do when you begin to read an English newspaper?

It usually puts the most important formation at the very beginning”可知，新闻文章中最重要的信息在文章的开头。故填At the very beginning. 63．根据“A news article…”、“A feature article…”以及“Another kind of article is an opinion article.”可知，作者谈论了三种文章。故填Three/3. 64．根据“Remember that people make ads to sell you things.”可知，人们做广告是为了推销东西。故填To sell (you) things. 65．开放性试题，言之有理即可，参考答案：No. Because it is difficult to judge which ads are useful and which are not. 六、书面表达（满分20分） 66．假如你是Millie，想给班主任吴老师写一封推荐信，推荐Sandy当班长。信中要对Sandy进行全面介绍。词数80左右。 1. 我想推荐Sandy当我们的班长，因为她有许多优良的个人品质。 2.

My mother was a servant (家政工作者). Through her work, she found that 11 people spent a lot more time reading than watching TV. She called my brother and me to the old wooden table at home and said that my brother and I could 12 watch two TV programs during the week, even on weekends. We had to read two books each from the community library and 13 book reports on the rough notebook paper she bought. She would sit by the lamp, look at the paper, and mark (做标记) them with checks (√). Years later we realised her 14 were a trick (诡计；骗局)—she’d just draw random checks. My mother was a person unable to read a word. When I entered high school, I was a (n) 15 student, but not for long. I started noticing my classmates’ brand-new jackets and shoes, wanting fancy clothes myself. I wanted to 16 the cool boys who hung out by the school gate after class. Slowly, I failed tests, going from being an A-student to a C-student. One night my mother 17 her jobs—she usually cleaned three houses a day—and came home early to talk to me. I complained about not having Italian 18 like my classmates. She sat quietly for a minute, then said, “Okay, take all the money I made this week and buy 19 food and pay the bills. With everything left over, you can have the Italian shirts you want.” I was very 20 to hear her words, jumping up to hug her. But once I got through spending money for rice, vegetables, rent, and my brother’s school supplies, there was 21 left. At that time, I realised how difficult it was for my mother to 22 our family with her small income (收入). I also realised that fancy clothes weren’t going to get me anywhere. I went back to my 23 and became an A-student again. Now I’ve become a doctor that I always dreamed of. My story is really my mother’s story. 24 she’s a woman with little education or money, she used her wisdom as a parent to 25 my life, pulling me back from the wrong path. There is no job more important than parenting. This is what I believe in. 11．A．careful B．healthy C．friendly D．successful 12．A．also B．only C．ever D．still 13．A．give up B．write down C．put away D．find out 14．A．reports B．books C．marks D．programs 15．A．lazy B．poor C．excellent D．popular 16．A．beat B．follow C．help D．teach 17．A．continued B．stopped C．understood D．offered 18．A．pizza B．noodles C．shoes D．shirts 19．A．us B．her C．him D．them 20．A．angry B．excited C．relaxed D．sad 21．A．nothing B．something C．everything D．anything 22．A．support B．greet C．enter D．teach 23．A．family B．team C．study D．program 24．A．Because B．When C．Although D．If 25．A．welcome B．change C．start D．stop 三、阅读理解（共20小题;每小题2分, 满分40分） A）请认真阅读下列材料, 从材料后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。 A Join the 24-Hour Screen-Free Challenge!

In the late 18th century, Europeans came to live in New Zealand. At that time, the population of the Maori was maybe 250,000 in New Zealand. Over the next one hundred years, wars and disease killed many Maori people. By the end of the 19th century, there were only about 40,000 Maori people left. During this time, the Maori also lost much of their land to the Europeans. Many of them were afraid that they might lose their traditions and language too, but this did not happen. Today, the Maori population is increasing. There are about 500,000 Maori people in New Zealand. Most live like other New Zealanders, but they are keeping the Maori language and traditions alive. There are now Maori radio and television stations. Many schools teach in the Maori language. Nearly one-half of Maori language speakers are 25 years old or younger. Maori culture is also alive and well. At the center of Maori culture is the “marae”. This is a special place for ceremonies and meetings. Today the number of marae in New Zealand is increasing. Many of the new marae are in the cities. Now people in the cities can meet and learn about their Maori traditions. Today, most New Zealand cities have Maori festivals each year. Among festival activities are competitions in speaking, dancing and singing. Children practice for months. Then all the Maori in the area arrive to watch the competitions and see who wins. The Maori have gone through hard times. Today, they live a comfortable, modern life. They keep their cultural traditions alive, because they have passed and are passing them on to their children. 29．When did the Maori first arrive in New Zealand? A．Around 11th century. B．Around 14th century. C．Around 16th century. D．Around 18th century. 30．What happened to the Maori during the 19th century? A．They owned more land. B．They lost their language. C．They left New Zealand. D．They had a smaller population. 31．How do the Maori keep their traditions alive? a. Increase the number of marae. b. Move to the center of New Zealand. c. Set up Maori radio and TV stations. d. Teach in the Maori language in many schools. e. Hold competitions in speaking, dancing and singing. A．bcde B．abcd C．abde D．acde 32．What would be the best structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． C Sports might have started as a way to survive. Long ago, people ran, jumped, and climbed to stay alive. Hunters were known for their special skills. Wall paintings from centuries ago, showing activities like wrestling or dancing, were found in an Egyptian tomb. The ancient Greeks made a big change by holding the first Olympic Games. Modern sports began in England in the early 19th century and then spread globally. These became the models for sports such as football that we play now. Sports come in many shapes and sizes. Organized sports, whether swimming or ice hockey, are serious forms of play. There are rules to obey, skills and positions to learn, and plans to carry out. Team sports like soccer require you to work with teammates, while individual (个人的) sports such as tennis focus on your personal performance. There’s no doubt that sports are valuable. The American Academy of Pediatrics says play is important for kids’ and teens’ thinking, bodies, social lives and feelings. Sports exercise our bodies and teach us about ourselves and our world. Organized sports get us using our bodies and minds, which makes us more imaginative, curious, and creative. The skills we learn can help us in school and later at work. In an ideal world, sports would always be fun. But in reality, sports can cause physical hurt like broken bones, and also harm in mind. In team sports, misunderstandings and hurt feelings are part of the learning process. Sports are supposed to bring people together, but they can also drive people apart. But even when they’re not always a cheerful experience, they show us how to face life’s challenges. You don’t have to be on a school team. But many, like school coaches, have found ways to make play their work, which makes them feel whole. There’s no better place to play and learn about the world than on a sports field. No matter what sport you choose, the key is to play for fun. When you do, you’re already a winner. 33．In which part of a newspaper can we probably read this passage? A．Travel. B．Nature. C．Technology. D．Entertainment. 34．Why is play important for teenagers according to the passage? A．It reduces their physical hurt easily. B．It improves their mind and body health. C．It helps them have more time for sleep. D．It teaches them how to win competitions. 35．Which of the following is the writer’s opinion? A．People should try to become a famous athlete. B．People can play mainly for fun and enjoyment. C．Trying team sports is better than individual ones. D．Avoiding sports that cause hurt is the best choice. 36．What may be the best title for the passage? A．The Styles of Sports B．The History of Sports C．The Charm of Sports D．The Challenges of Sports D Britain has laws to make sure that women have the same opportunities as men in education, jobs and training. But it’s still unusual to find women doing dirty or heavy jobs. Nikki Honriques is a car maintenance engineer in London. She used to be a secretary, Barty Philips, a journalist with “The Observe”, a Sunday newspaper, asked her why she wanted to work cars. “My first reason was independence,” she said. “1 also wanted to use my hands, and I like learning about how things work. Many people prefer to have a woman repair their cars, too.” Nikki didn’t find it easy to become a car maintenance engineer. She went to Government Skills Centre — a special sort of college where people can learn a new job — for twenty weeks. “For ten weeks I was the only woman among four hundred men, and some of them were rude to me, just because of my sex. It was also very tiring — from 8 in the morning to 5 in the afternoon, with only 30 minutes for lunch.” Now Nikki works free-lance — that is, she’s self-employed, not working for a garage or a company. Barty Philips also spoke to Rose, who works as a general builder in Sheffield, an industrial town in the north of England. Like Nikki, Rose used to be a secretary. “I didn’t enjoy it at all,” she said. “I wanted to do more practical work, and I wanted to be self-employed.” Rose joined a women’s building co-operative, and she learnt her job from other people and from experience. However, many of the women in her group have been specially trained. Most of the jobs they do are improvements to buildings and general repairs. “People often say, ‘Oh, women aren’t strong enough’, but I don’t think strength is important,” said Rose. “The important thing is to get used to doing a different sort of work.” Rose would like more women to come into the building industry. “Everything built at the moment is a product of man’s world. If women become builders, they will be able to understand the production of their houses and their towns.” 37．Why did Nikki Honriques want to be a car maintenance engineer? A．Because she wanted to be a dependent woman. B．Because she wanted to repair her cars. C．Because she wanted to learn about how things work. D．Because she wanted to be rich. 38．How long did Nikki Honriques have to work before she became an engineer? A．About ten weeks per year. B．About twenty weeks per year. C．About nine hours per day. D．Advice them to the airport and take a trip . 39．What does the underlined word “self-employed” mean? A．working for herself. B．working for a company. C．working for money. D．working for government. 40．What can we infer from the passage? A．The woman in Britain like doing dirty or heavy jobs in factories. B．Rose became a car maintenance engineer like Nikki Honriques. C．More and more women come into the Britain building industry. D．Nikki Honriques and Rose are both very brave and hard-working.

Sometimes, songs get stuck (挥之不去) in our heads while we stay 53 (wake). We call them earworms. They can happen during sleep as well.

So we shouldn’t listen to music 55 going to bed as it may be worse for our sleep. 56 (wear) socks to bed can help us fall asleep faster! Studies say it can help people fall asleep 15 minutes 57 (early) and they won’t wake up so many times at night. In fact, when we fall asleep, our body temperature goes down.
