This means dogs can do jobs that people can’t. Some of their jobs may surprise you. Many dogs work with people to help them feel better. These dogs are called therapy dogs. Therapy dogs make people feel comfortable and keep them calm. These dogs sometimes visit sick people in hospitals to cheer them up. Therapy dogs need to have a friendly personality. They are trained to act calmly to new places, smells and people. Some dogs help people with disabilities. These dogs are called service dogs. Service dogs can do many different jobs. For example, some of them help people who cannot see well. These dogs are trained to keep people from stepping into traffic. They are also trained to lead their owners around objects. That way, their owners won’t fall. Some dogs work to find people who are lost, hurt, or trapped or find things that are hidden. These dogs are called search-and-rescue (营救) (SAR) dogs. Many SAR dogs use their powerful nose to find people who need help. Dogs help us do many types of jobs. As our work changes and grows, so do the jobs we give to dogs.

He was able to walk around looking at the lions, monkeys, bears and other circus animals. As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not. He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn't try to get away. "Well,” the trainer said, "when they are very young and much smaller, we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they still believe they can not break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.” “How could it be?" said the man. These animals could at any time break free from ropes. But because they were always stuck right where they were, they believed they couldn't. Just like the poor elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we can not do something, just because we failed at it once before? Failing is part of learning. 11．Where were the animals kept? A．In the circus. B．In the zoo C．In the fore D．In the park. 12．What does the underlined phrase "break away" mean?

They looked out their window and saw Spotty. She was on the street in front of their house. She was limping (瘸着走). Michelle’s mum ran outside and looked at Spotty’s paw (爪子). There was a splinter (尖碎片) in it. Her mum carefully pulled the splinter out. Spotty jumped down and ran behind a tree. Michelle and her mum turned to go back home. But before they closed the door, they saw Spotty. She ran up to them and stood at the door. Michelle said, “Can Spotty stay with us, Mum?” “Yes, she can,” said Mum.

Passage 5 Nature is full of power but nature is sometimes very interesting. Let’s take some plants as an example (例子). Monster Flower The monster flower is the name of the plant. It has the biggest flower in the world. To people, the plant’s smell is really bad! But bees and other insects (昆虫) love this smell. And that helps the plant! Giant Tree Most trees are tall. But the tallest trees in the world are redwood trees. These trees are slow growers. It takes them 500 years to grow very, very tall and very wide. Redwood trees are 300 feet tall. That’s about as tall as a stack (一堆) of 40 school buses! Redwoods are 30 feet wide. That’s about as wide as 3 school buses side by side. Pitcher Plant The pitcher plant traps insects. This plant smells nice. Insects like its smell. But when an insect climbs onto the pitcher plant, the insect slips into the pitcher plant. Quickly, the pitcher plant catches it! Sundew Plant Insects love the leaves’ smell of the sundew plant. But when an insect creeps or lands on a sundew’s leaf, the insect can’t get away. The leaves are sticky.

People love these pets and have them as their good friends. Before they keep them in their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them injections(注射) so that they won’t carry diseases. They have special animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every kind of stores. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. When you visit people’s houses, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. You will also find that almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animal in Canada. They have a law against killing wild animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished. If an animal happened to get run over by a car,people would be very sad about it. People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: Their family ties(关系) are not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own life. Then the old will feel lonely. But pets can solve this problem. They can be good friends and never leave them alone. 24．Pets are given injections in animal hospitals ________ .

In ancient China, the first day of entering school was very important. There was no fixed time to begin a new term, so parents would choose (选择) a day for their children to enter school. Next, they would prepare (准备) some school things for their children. They would also prepare sacrifices (供品). In the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (朝代), people usually worshipped (供奉) Confucius with celery to hope their children would be hard-working. As time changed, people also used pigs, cows and sheep.

Today, China has many kinds of tea: white, yellow, green, oolong, black, and dark tea. When we talk about tea culture, we can’t miss an important person Lu Yu. He was the first person to be called “Tea Doctor”, because he wrote the first book about tea—The Classic of Tea (《茶经》). Lu was born in 733 and lived in the Tang Dynasty. As a homeless child, he lived in Longgai Temple (寺庙) and studied there including boiling (煮) tea. When he was thirteen, Jingling Prefect (太守) Li Qiwu not only gave him books but also lead him to learn from a famous teacher. He learned a lot about tea there.

An international study says that using electronic (电子的) products at night can make us sleep badly. Let’s dig into the reasons behind it. In the evening, our bodies make melatonin (褪黑激素). Melatonin makes us feel sleepy and relaxed. It is an important part of our sleep cycle. But the electronic screens stop that cycle from working as usual. That’s because phones, computers and TVs make blue light. Blue light stops our bodies from making melatonin. Even just a little bit of blue light can change our sleep cycles. Eight minutes of blue light can keep your brain (大脑) “working” for another hour, according to the study. Even if you fall asleep, you may have lots of dreams, stopping your brain from resting well. It’s even worse (更糟) if you play an exciting game before bedtime. Playing computer games can make our hearts race, so we have a harder time falling asleep. Then, after we fall asleep, we get less (更少的) “deep sleep”, so people will be in poor health. In the E-era (E时代), many people have the sleep problem, but don’t worry. Here are some tips for you to get a good night’s sleep: ①Do something relaxing every night. Take a warm shower or read a book. ②Sleep in a dark, quiet room that is not too warm or too cold. ③Count sheep. It’s the old trick, and it really works! ④Don’t eat a big meal or have coffee. You’d better drink milk. ⑤Don’t run around or exercise three hours before going to bed. 41．What can we learn about melatonin? A．It makes us feel tired. B．It has nothing to do with our sleep cycle. C．It helps us fall asleep at night. D．It stops us from sleeping well as usual. 42．Electronic screens can make us sleep badly because ________. A．they make us feel hungry B．our brains need more time to dream C．the blue light breaks our sleep cycle D．they make more melatonin than our bodies need 43．________ can help us sleep well according to the passage. A．Doing something relaxing B．Reading an electronic book C．Drinking coffee or milk D．Taking a cold shower 44．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．Why Should We Sleep Well? B．Sleep Well with Less Screen Time. C．Why is Melatonin important? D．Fun Activities to Do Before Bedtime. 45．What’s the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D．     Passage 11  If you have no special plans for your holidays, why not spend your time helping others? More and more students in the USA volunteer to spend their school holidays working for others. And they don’t do it for money. Here are some of their stories. Alice Hamilton, 17     I’m going to help the Forest Centre build new hiking ways in the mountains. It’s going to be wonderful—I’ll spend all the summer living in the tent and breathing the clean mountain air. I’m going to sleep under the stars. It’ll be a nice sport, and I’ll be able to do something good at the same time. Jason Moore, 18     This summer, I’m going to volunteer with Special House Program. They build good, low-cost houses and sell them to families that are not very rich. They’ll teach me what to do, so I’ll help people and also have a chance (机会) to learn how to build houses. Trish Anderson, 16     I’m going to teach kids who have trouble reading. I’ll work for a program called “Reading for Life”. Every day, I’m going to help kids choose and read books that they like.

For example, my full name is Kate Kin Hand. Hand is my family name. My parents also give me other names. People don’t use their middle names very often. So “John Henry Brown” is usually called “John Brown”. People use Mr, Mrs, Ms or Miss with the family name but not with the first name. So, you can say Mr Brown, but you can’t say Mr John. Sometimes people ask me about my name. “Why do your parents call you Kate? Why do they choose (选择) that name for you?” The answer is that they don’t call me Kate. They call me Catherine. In England, people usually call me Kate for short. That’s because it is short and easy. 51．If your English teacher’s name is Mary Joan Shute, you can call her ________.

However, there are a lot of good sides of keeping a pet, too—it can add more family time you spend together, teach you to be responsible and make everyone a little happier to come home. Before you ask for keeping a pet, plan out your words and actions with the following steps: Look for information about how to look after the kind of pet you want. Does it need lots of outdoor space? What about its eating habits? ▲ The more you know about the pet, the more likely your parents may agree. What’s more, your parents need time to think about it and it may take a week or longer. If they refuse, keep silent about it for a few days. Act like a mature adult at home. Finish your homework carefully in time, do chores as possible as you can, and keep the home clean. Last but not least, find out the reason why they don’t let you have a pet. You may have an answer to their worry. Is it because that there isn’t enough space?

They hold different kinds of jobs and have worked with people for thousands of years. What makes dogs such great workers? They learn fast, and they can also hear and smell better than we can. This means dogs can do jobs that people can’t. Some of their jobs may surprise you. Many dogs work with people to help them feel better. These dogs are called therapy dogs. Therapy dogs make people feel comfortable and keep them calm. These dogs sometimes visit sick people in hospitals to cheer them up. Therapy dogs need to have a friendly personality.

He was able to walk around looking at the lions, monkeys, bears and other circus animals. As he was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped. He found that these huge elephants were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was clear that the elephants could, at any time, break away from their ropes but for some reason, they did not. He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and didn't try to get away. "Well,” the trainer said, "when they are very young and much smaller, we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they still believe they can not break away. They believe the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free.” “How could it be?" said the man. These animals could at any time break free from ropes. But because they were always stuck right where they were, they believed they couldn't. Just like the poor elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we can not do something, just because we failed at it once before?

It may be better to read a book. An international study says that using electronic (电子的) products at night can make us sleep badly. Let’s dig into the reasons behind it. In the evening, our bodies make melatonin (褪黑激素). Melatonin makes us feel sleepy and relaxed. It is an important part of our sleep cycle. But the electronic screens stop that cycle from working as usual. That’s because phones, computers and TVs make blue light. Blue light stops our bodies from making melatonin. Even just a little bit of blue light can change our sleep cycles. Eight minutes of blue light can keep your brain (大脑) “working” for another hour, according to the study. Even if you fall asleep, you may have lots of dreams, stopping your brain from resting well. It’s even worse (更糟) if you play an exciting game before bedtime. Playing computer games can make our hearts race, so we have a harder time falling asleep. Then, after we fall asleep, we get less (更少的) “deep sleep”, so people will be in poor health. In the E-era (E时代), many people have the sleep problem, but don’t worry. Here are some tips for you to get a good night’s sleep: ①Do something relaxing every night. Take a warm shower or read a book. ②Sleep in a dark, quiet room that is not too warm or too cold. ③Count sheep. It’s the old trick, and it really works! ④Don’t eat a big meal or have coffee. You’d better drink milk. ⑤Don’t run around or exercise three hours before going to bed. 41．What can we learn about melatonin? A．It makes us feel tired. B．It has nothing to do with our sleep cycle. C．It helps us fall asleep at night. D．It stops us from sleeping well as usual. 42．Electronic screens can make us sleep badly because ________. A．they make us feel hungry B．our brains need more time to dream C．the blue light breaks our sleep cycle D．they make more melatonin than our bodies need 43．________ can help us sleep well according to the passage. A．Doing something relaxing B．Reading an electronic book C．Drinking coffee or milk D．Taking a cold shower 44．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．Why Should We Sleep Well? B．Sleep Well with Less Screen Time. C．Why is Melatonin important? D．Fun Activities to Do Before Bedtime. 45．What’s the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】41．C 42．C 43．A 44．B 45．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了晚上使用电子产品对我们睡眠的影响，并给出了几条关于提高睡眠质量的建议。 41．推理判断题。根据“Melatonin makes us feel sleepy and relaxed.”可知 ，褪黑激素帮助我们入睡。故选C。 42．细节理解题。根据“Even just a little bit of blue light can change our sleep cycles.”可知，电子屏幕会让我们睡不好是因为蓝光打破了我们的睡眠周期。故选C。 43．细节理解题。根据“Here are some tips for you to get a good night’s sleep: ①Do something relaxing every night.”可知，做一些放松的事情有助于我们睡得好。故选A。 44．最佳标题题。根据“An international study says that using electronic (电子的) products at night can make us sleep badly.”及通读全文可知，本文建议减少屏幕时间，睡个好觉。故选B。 45．篇章结构题。通读全文可知，本文第一段提出问题晚上使用电子产品对睡眠不好，第二段和第三段介绍了晚上玩电子产品对睡眠不好的原因，第四段介绍了提高睡眠质量的建议。故选B。     Passage 11  If you have no special plans for your holidays, why not spend your time helping others?

Their family names come last. For example, my full name is Kate Kin Hand. Hand is my family name. My parents also give me other names. People don’t use their middle names very often. So “John Henry Brown” is usually called “John Brown”. People use Mr, Mrs, Ms or Miss with the family name but not with the first name. So, you can say Mr Brown, but you can’t say Mr John. Sometimes people ask me about my name. “Why do your parents call you Kate? Why do they choose (选择) that name for you?” The answer is that they don’t call me Kate. They call me Catherine. In England, people usually call me Kate for short. That’s because it is short and easy. 51．If your English teacher’s name is Mary Joan Shute, you can call her ________. A．Ms Mary B．Ms Joan C．Ms Mary Joan D．Ms Shute 52．The writer of the passage (文章) is probably from ________. A．China B．England C．Russia D．Japan 53．What can we know from the passage? A．All English people have three names. B．The writer’s parents call her Kate because it’s easy and short. C．If a person’s full name is Tommy Ken Johnson, then Johnson is his last name. D．People in English-speaking countries often use their middle names. 54．The passage is mainly about ________ in English-speaking countries. A．how to give family names and last names B．good family names and last names C．the history of the names D．names and titles (称谓) 【答案】51．D 52．B 53．C 54．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了英语国家中人们的姓名结构、使用习惯以及称谓方式。 51．细节理解题。根据文章第二段“People use Mr, Mrs, Ms or Miss with the family name but not with the first name. So, you can say Mr Brown, but you can’t say Mr John.”可知，称谓需与姓氏连用。题干中“Mary Joan Shute”的姓氏是Shute，因此正确称呼为“Ms Shute”。故选D。 52．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Most English people have three names…”以及第三段“In England, people usually call me Kate for short.”可知，作者以英国人的姓名习惯为例，并提到“在英格兰人们通常叫我Kate”，因此作者很可能来自英格兰。故选B。 53．细节理解题。根据第一段“Their family names come last”和例子“Kate Kin Hand”可知，姓氏在最后，因此“Tommy Ken Johnson”中Johnson是姓氏。故选C。 54．主旨大意题。全文围绕英语国家姓名的组成（first/middle/family name）、使用习惯（少用中间名、称谓与姓氏连用）及简称（如Kate）展开，重点讨论姓名与称谓的规则。D项“names and titles（名字与称谓）”最贴合主题。故选D。 话题3 人与自我 Passage 13 Parents don’t want a pet at home for some reasons, such as there’s just a lot of work to do to keep pets clean, healthy and happy. However, there are a lot of good sides of keeping a pet, too—it can add more family time you spend together, teach you to be responsible and make everyone a little happier to come home. Before you ask for keeping a pet, plan out your words and actions with the following steps: Look for information about how to look after the kind of pet you want. Does it need lots of outdoor space? What about its eating habits? ▲ The more you know about the pet, the more likely your parents may agree. What’s more, your parents need time to think about it and it may take a week or longer. If they refuse, keep silent about it for a few days. Act like a mature adult at home. Finish your homework carefully in time, do chores as possible as you can, and keep the home clean. Last but not least, find out the reason why they don’t let you have a pet. You may have an answer to their worry. Is it because that there isn’t enough space? Start a clean-up! 55．What is NOT a good side of having a pet at home? A．Being happy. B．Work. C．Family time. D．Being responsible. 56．Which question is the best for ▲ ?
