B Once upon a time, there was a king who could not sleep for all his worries about what tomorrow might bring. One day the king found a cobbler in the market, who wore ragged clothes and looked very thin, but his smile was as bright as the moon. “Surely you must worry. How could you smile so brightly?” the king walked close and asked. “Today I earned enough money fixing shoes to buy a loaf of bread!” “But what if not tomorrow?” “I have faith (信心),” the cobbler answered. “All will be well.” This impressed (给…留下印象) the king, and when he left, he wondered what would happen if the cobbler could not earn his bread. The next morning in the market, the king decreed: no one was allowed to repair shoes. Whenever someone’s shoes wore out, that person must buy a new pair. That evening the king dressed in rags and secretly followed to the cobbler’s house to see if he was crying, but through the window, he saw the cobbler drinking soup and smiling. The king knocked. “I came to see if you were all right,” he said. “You saw the new decree? How did you pay for this soup?” the king broke in. “I carried water for an old woman, and she rewarded me with a coin,” the man said. “Please come and share my soup. You look hungry.” “But what will you do tomorrow?” the king asked. “I have faith,” the man said. “All will be well.” The king went up and asked, “Do you know who I am?” “Of course.” the man said, “you are the king.” The king shook his head and said, “I am the beggar (乞丐) who came to your door.” 1.

C Seasons on Earth are caused by the planet’s tilt (倾斜) as it orbits the sun. The Earth tilts at an angle of 23.5 degrees, which means different parts of the planet get different amounts (数量) of sunlight throughout the year. In spring, the Northern Hemisphere (北半球) tilts toward the sun. Days get longer, and the temperature rises. Plants start to grow, and animals wake up from hibernation (冬眠). It’s a season of new life, with flowers blooming and birds building nests. Summer is the warmest season in the Northern Hemisphere. The hemisphere tilts most toward the sun, so days are the longest and nights are the shortest. The sun shines brightly, and the temperature is high. Many people go to the beach or mountains to cool down. Some areas may have sudden showers in the afternoon, which help refresh the air. Autumn brings cooler weather and shorter days. The Northern Hemisphere tilts away from the sun gradually. Leaves turn red, yellow, and orange before falling off the trees. Farmers harvest their crops, and animals prepare for winter by storing food. It’s a season of harvest and change. Winter is the coldest season. The Northern Hemisphere tilts farthest from the sun, so days are the shortest and nights are the longest. In many areas, it snows, and the ground is covered in white. Some animals hibernate, while others adapt to the cold weather. People wear warm clothes and stay indoors more often. 1. What causes seasons on Earth? A. The Earth’s speed around the sun. B. The Earth’s tilt as it orbits the sun. C. The distance between the Earth and the sun. D. The amount of rain in different months. 2. What happens in spring in the Northern Hemisphere? A. Days are the longest. B. Animals wake up from hibernation. C. Leaves turn red and yellow. D. It snows heavily. 3. Why is summer the warmest season in the Northern Hemisphere? A. The hemisphere tilts most toward the sun. B. Days are the shortest. C. There are more showers. D. Animals hibernate. D Napoga is a 12-year old girl in Ghana, Africa. It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They can’t get enough clean water to keep healthy. Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource (自然资源) on the earth. Water covers 70 percent of the earth’s surface. But most of that is sea water. We can’t use it for many things. Freshwater covers only one percent of the earth’s surface. You probably feel lucky that your life isn’t as hard as Napoga’s. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes, and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too. Now, thirty-four percent of all kinds of fish are dying out. How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they pollute the air. Then, when it rains, the rainwater comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain (酸雨), is also bad for plants, animals and buildings. Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won’t have enough clean water. We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice for saving water. •Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450 liters each month. •Leaky taps (漏水的龙头) waste a lot of water. Fix them right away. •You can easily cut your 10-minute showers in half, and you’ll be just as clean. •When you wash dishes, don’t let the water run. •Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash. If your washing machine isn’t full, you are wasting water! 1. Why can’t Napoga go to school? A. Because her family is poor. B. Because she doesn’t like studying. C. Because she has to take care of her little brother. D. Because she has to get clean water for her family. 2. From the passage we can learn ____ ways to save water. A. two B. three C. four D. five 3. What information do we know from the passage about the water on the earth? A. There is 70% of freshwater. B. We don’t need to worry about water. C. There is very little water for our living. D. Sea water is more widely used than freshwater. 4. From the passage, we know that acid rain ____ . A. is only bad for living things B. can be produced in factories C. isn’t bad for people, but bad for plants, animals and buildings D. is bad for all living things including human beings 5. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. It’s time to take good care of the water we use. B. Water is the most important natural resource on the earth. C. Something must be done to prevent water from being polluted. D. Clean water means much to human beings and living things around us. 四、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。 When the sky suddenly turns dark and the wind is strong, be careful.

Start of Winter, the 19th of the year, which means the beginning of winter in Chinese culture, begins on November 7 this year. Here are some customs (习俗) we Chinese people often have during this period. Drinking mutton soup In many places in China, there’s a tradition of “drinking mutton (羊肉) soup on this day, and you won’t fear the cold throughout the winter.” Mutton is rich in fats, proteins, and calories, making it a good choice when the weather gets cold. Having a bowl of mutton soup not only warms the weak body but also provides a pleasant experience. Eating tangyuan Eating tangyuan is a traditional custom, which is especially popular in the south of Yangtze River. “Tangyuan” is a must-have food for people there, because “Yuan” means “getting together”. Eating dumplings In many parts of northern China, it is a custom to eat dumplings. People in northern China eat dumplings on this day because dumplings have the meaning of “cold”, and there is still a folk saying that “the Winter Solstice misbehaves in the dumpling bowl, and the ears are frozen and no one cares (冬至不端饺子碗，冻掉耳朵没人管).” Making winter wine Start of Winter is a good day to start making yellow wine in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, as the water is usually clearer at this time and the low temperature restricts the growth of germs — perfect for the flavor during the fermenting process. Besides these customs, we should also pay attention to some other things during this time. As the weather gets colder and colder, we need to wear gloves, hats and warm cotton-padded shoes to keep ourselves warm. We also need to do exercise, such as choosing some indoor sports to keep our body strong. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 1.

The Earth tilts at an angle of 23.5 degrees, which means different parts of the planet get different amounts (数量) of sunlight throughout the year. In spring, the Northern Hemisphere (北半球) tilts toward the sun. Days get longer, and the temperature rises. Plants start to grow, and animals wake up from hibernation (冬眠). It’s a season of new life, with flowers blooming and birds building nests. Summer is the warmest season in the Northern Hemisphere. The hemisphere tilts most toward the sun, so days are the longest and nights are the shortest. The sun shines brightly, and the temperature is high. Many people go to the beach or mountains to cool down. Some areas may have sudden showers in the afternoon, which help refresh the air. Autumn brings cooler weather and shorter days. The Northern Hemisphere tilts away from the sun gradually. Leaves turn red, yellow, and orange before falling off the trees. Farmers harvest their crops, and animals prepare for winter by storing food. It’s a season of harvest and change. Winter is the coldest season. The Northern Hemisphere tilts farthest from the sun, so days are the shortest and nights are the longest. In many areas, it snows, and the ground is covered in white. Some animals hibernate, while others adapt to the cold weather. People wear warm clothes and stay indoors more often. 1. What causes seasons on Earth? A. The Earth’s speed around the sun. B. The Earth’s tilt as it orbits the sun. C. The distance between the Earth and the sun. D. The amount of rain in different months. 2. What happens in spring in the Northern Hemisphere? A. Days are the longest. B. Animals wake up from hibernation. C. Leaves turn red and yellow. D. It snows heavily. 3. Why is summer the warmest season in the Northern Hemisphere? A. The hemisphere tilts most toward the sun. B. Days are the shortest. C. There are more showers. D. Animals hibernate. 【答案】BBA 【解析】本文主要介绍了四季的形成及各具特色的自然景观。 1. 题干：什么导致了地球上的季节？A. 地球绕太阳的速度；B. 地球绕太阳公转时的倾斜；C. 地球和太阳之间的距离；D. 不同月份降雨量。根据第1段“Seasons on Earth are caused by the planet’s tilt (倾斜) as it orbits the sun.

Many people go to the beach or mountains to cool down. Some areas may have sudden showers in the afternoon, which help refresh the air.（夏季是北半球最温暖的季节。此时北半球向太阳倾斜的角度最大，所以白天最长，夜晚最短。阳光灿烂，气温很高。许多人去海滩或山区避暑。一些地区下午可能会有阵雨，这有助于空气清新。）”可知，答案选A。 D Napoga is a 12-year old girl in Ghana, Africa. It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her family in a village far away. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They can’t get enough clean water to keep healthy. Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource (自然资源) on the earth. Water covers 70 percent of the earth’s surface. But most of that is sea water. We can’t use it for many things. Freshwater covers only one percent of the earth’s surface. You probably feel lucky that your life isn’t as hard as Napoga’s. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes, and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too. Now, thirty-four percent of all kinds of fish are dying out. How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they pollute the air. Then, when it rains, the rainwater comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain (酸雨), is also bad for plants, animals and buildings. Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won’t have enough clean water. We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice for saving water. •Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450 liters each month. •Leaky taps (漏水的龙头) waste a lot of water. Fix them right away. •You can easily cut your 10-minute showers in half, and you’ll be just as clean. •When you wash dishes, don’t let the water run. •Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash. If your washing machine isn’t full, you are wasting water! 1. Why can’t Napoga go to school? A. Because her family is poor. B. Because she doesn’t like studying. C. Because she has to take care of her little brother. D. Because she has to get clean water for her family. 2. From the passage we can learn ____ ways to save water. A. two B. three C. four D. five 3. What information do we know from the passage about the water on the earth? A. There is 70% of freshwater. B. We don’t need to worry about water. C. There is very little water for our living. D. Sea water is more widely used than freshwater. 4. From the passage, we know that acid rain ____ . A. is only bad for living things B. can be produced in factories C. isn’t bad for people, but bad for plants, animals and buildings D. is bad for all living things including human beings 5. What’s the main idea of the passage? A. It’s time to take good care of the water we use. B. Water is the most important natural resource on the earth. C. Something must be done to prevent water from being polluted. D. Clean water means much to human beings and living things around us. 【答案】DDCDC 【解析】这篇短文主要讲述了水资源的情况以及如何节约用水。 1. 细节理解题。根据第1段“It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking.

Start of Winter, the 19th of the year, which means the beginning of winter in Chinese culture, begins on November 7 this year. Here are some customs (习俗) we Chinese people often have during this period. Drinking mutton soup In many places in China, there’s a tradition of “drinking mutton (羊肉) soup on this day, and you won’t fear the cold throughout the winter.” Mutton is rich in fats, proteins, and calories, making it a good choice when the weather gets cold. Having a bowl of mutton soup not only warms the weak body but also provides a pleasant experience. Eating tangyuan Eating tangyuan is a traditional custom, which is especially popular in the south of Yangtze River. “Tangyuan” is a must-have food for people there, because “Yuan” means “getting together”. Eating dumplings In many parts of northern China, it is a custom to eat dumplings. People in northern China eat dumplings on this day because dumplings have the meaning of “cold”, and there is still a folk saying that “the Winter Solstice misbehaves in the dumpling bowl, and the ears are frozen and no one cares (冬至不端饺子碗，冻掉耳朵没人管).” Making winter wine Start of Winter is a good day to start making yellow wine in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, as the water is usually clearer at this time and the low temperature restricts the growth of germs — perfect for the flavor during the fermenting process. Besides these customs, we should also pay attention to some other things during this time. As the weather gets colder and colder, we need to wear gloves, hats and warm cotton-padded shoes to keep ourselves warm. We also need to do exercise, such as choosing some indoor sports to keep our body strong. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 1.

When is Start of Winter this year? ___________________________________________________________ 3. How many customs are mentioned in this article? ___________________________________________________________ 4.
