Passage 1

In China many students spend much of their time on their studies and don’t help with housework at home. As a result, they lack (缺少) basic skills. L 1 , things are changing. Last year, many schools began to teach students life skills.
In Hope Middle School in Jiangsu, students have a s 2 life skill class. They learn to make dumplings in d 3 kinds of shapes. “I couldn’t make dumplings before, but now I am good at doing it. I really love my life skill class. It’s my favorite class.” said Zhang Yan, a boy at the school.
Suren School set up some farming courses. Their students l 4 to plant vegetables. “At f 5 , I thought I could only g 6 some vegetables here, but I learned a lot about vegetables.” said Chen Jia, a girl at the school.
In fact, learning life s 7 is as important as learning Chinese and Math b 8 it helps us prepare for our future life. T 9 activities, students can develop their hobbies and enjoy their school life. But do you help our parents do housework at home?
I 10 not, maybe you should get started now.
Passage 2
Recently, I visited my former classmate Leo in his new home, where he lives with his wife and daughter. Nowadays, he would like to spend his h 1 and weekends making his house look more beautiful. Like hundreds of thousands of other British people, he has found the j 2 of DIY home repairs. This means that if anything needs f 3 around the house, he will try to do the job himself.
Leo showed me his new kitchen that he put together himself, and his newly-painted walls. I asked him w 4 he got the idea to do these things. He told me that it came from a DIY program on TV.
This got me to think about how p 5 DIY programs are in the UK. Each channel (频道) has at least one home or garden makeover (装饰,翻新) show. Some channels are e 6 completely talking about the subject.
I don’t think it’s really s 7 that DIY programs are so welcomed by people. There are two common British sayings – “an E 8 home is his castle” and “there’s no place like home” – which show how i 9 their houses are to them. With the economic (经济) changes of the last several years, many people don’t have enough money to buy bigger houses than before. So they are looking at how they can make their houses b 10 without spending a lot of money. DIY, obviously, is the perfect choice.
Passage 3
Many kids like to read comic books in their spare time. It worries many parents and teachers, because they do not think the comic book is a great r 1 . They think kids are just looking at the pictures and not p 2 them together with the words. But some experts’ opinions are the opposite, they say reading comics can help them a lot.
Comics are fun to read. The general reason for choosing something to read is for p 3 . Comics just do that! They p 4 stories that people of all ages can have fun with. Comics are not just silly cartoons. They’re also important works of art, and people can get a lot of k 5 from them. For example, looking at comics from around the world is also a great way to learn about different cultures.
While reading novels, children might find it hard to guess the meanings of unknown words. But w 6 it comes to comics, it is different. Children can e 7 manage to do that according to (根据) the pictures. What’s more, even kids at p 8 school can understand the plot (情节) when they read comics, as pictures can help them in some ways.
All in all, comics are a great way to relax and get kids to fall in love with reading. As a parent, you shouldn’t just stop your kids reading comic books, picking some good ones for them is a good choice i 9 When you help them develop a good habit of reading, you put them on a path to s 10 both in the classroom and in life. Reading is a really powerful tool for children’s growth.
Passage 4
Strawberries look nice, but light pressure can make them out of shape. Nowadays, there are many young people just like strawberries. They are easy to break down when they face p 1 . They don’t know what to do when they are in trouble—this is one of their common growing pains. Why are many students so easy to break down? Parents and schools are the main reasons. Parents do almost e 2 for them in their everyday life and schools care more about their grades. Liu Yue, 13, is from Fujian. His mom seldom criticizes him and he is always confident about h 3 . One day, when he was criticized by a teacher, he felt surprised and sad. He began to lose c 4 . It was at that moment he r 5 he needed to change. Then he asked his favourite teacher Mr Wang for help. Mr Wang said to him, “You should do something to make yourself strong. When you have problems, don’t ask for help too q 6 . You should try to solve the problems first by yourself. It can help you gain a sense of a 7 .I also advise you to take an active part to build up your courage.” G 8 up is not just a happy process. Pains also go along with it. The i 9 thing is to face the pains bravely, learn from them and turn them into valuable g 10 .
Passage 5
Students often want to practice their English outside class. One of the best w 1 to practice your English is to speak to a foreigner. Most of the students ask “Is it Okay to try to talk to foreigners when we meet t 2 in the street?” The answer is yes or no, b 3 probably no! When you see a foreigner looks lost, it is polite to ask him or her, “May I h 4 you?” But, if not, you should probably let him or her get on with the business(公事). You can talk to a foreigner at some time or p 5 . It is quite OK to ask him or her questions when a foreigner c 6 into your school, classroom or your teachers’ office. It’s also OK to talk to foreigners in some p 7 places. When you see a foreigner and there is no other one with him or her in a r 8 , a waiting room, or a shop, it is the right t 9 for you to ask him or her, “Is this seat free?”
O 10 questions like this. It’s a pleasure to talk to a foreigner if you choose the right time and place.

He lives and works in the Daxing’anling region of Heilongjiang Province. The area has t 3 forests full of wildlife, but forest fires are common at c 4 times. These fires are highly d 5 , endangering both people and animals.
When a fire starts, Fan Yuan and his team act fast. They fly by plane and parachute down as the fires are hard to reach. After l 6 , they use simple t 7 to clear away d 8 leaves and stop the fire.
To be a smokejumper, one must be brave, t 9 , smart, and fit. Survival skills in the wild are also necessary.
Despite the job’s difficulty and danger, Fan Yuan is p 10 of his work. He loves the land and is committed to protecting it.
Passage 7
My dream is to work in a hospital. I think that a d 1 is one of the most important jobs in the world. M 2 people are busy working everyday. They don’t have much time to relax or do exercise. Lots of them are in poor health b 3 they don’t look after (照顾) themselves well. I would like to help them get h 4 again. I know it’s not easy to be a doctor. I need to learn a lot. I am going to study hard to i 5 my skills (技能).
As a doctor I am g 6 to try to help patients (病人). I’ll a 7 be there with them when they need me. If someone doesn’t have enough m 8 , I’m still going to help him. I believe after he gets some money, he will give the money back to m 9 . I don’t care how much money being a doctor can make. It will be great to be a doctor because I can help others. Helping others can make me h 10 .
Passage 8
根据短文意思和首字母提示,写出一个完整正确的单词。
A few days ago, I sat on the sofa watching TV. Just then, I got a c 1 from a friend of mine. I haven’t seen him for a very long time. We talked about our schooldays on the phone; then he started talking about his m 2 .
His mother was b 3 ill in hospital. She couldn’t sleep at night and often t 4 to herself. My friend was angry with her and asked his mother to stop talking. Since then, his mother didn’t say anything. The d 5 said she had a kind of mental disease (心理疾病). She couldn’t look after herself like a n 6 person. My friend was very sad.

Everyone wants to be a good-looking person, especially young people. Did you d 1 of being tall when you were young? If a girl has a beautiful face, maybe she can join in the storytelling when she grows u 2 . Of course, a handsome boy can take part in model shows. And a tall boy can be a basketball player. In fact, most people around us are of medium h 3 and medium build.
For students, food can be useful to your body. If you want to be tall, you can drink more milk. Fruit and vegetables also make your body s 4 and healthy. Walking is good for our health. If you don’t want to w 5 glasses, you must have good reading habits to protect your eyes.
Most people have ordinary faces. You can’t judge someone only b 6 his or her looks. A good appearance may be important for someone, but it isn’t all for your life.
The inner beauty is the thing everyone n 7 . If you are kind and f 8 to people, they will like you. If you can use your abilities to help o 9 , you will be powerful and helpful.
People may describe good looks differently, but the ideas about inner b 10 are the same. It’s the most important.
Passage 10

Our parents often c 1 us to others. They try to encourage us to do better. They mean well, but the m 2 we often get is that we’re not good enough. We begin to b 3 that in order to be special, we have to be better than someone else, but we are often disappointed (失望). There will a 4 be someone out there who is better than we are at something. It is i 5 to be better than everyone else all the time.
We all want the things that will make us a better p 6 . But we don’t realize that we have already had the very things that we want i 7 us. These things make us d 8 from others. When we are growing up, our parents sometimes f 9 to tell us that we are special and good enough. But we should remind them that each of us, in our o 10 way, is special.
Passage 11
根据短文内容和首字母提示,在短文的空格处填上一个恰当的词 (注意使用其正确形式),使短文完整、通顺。
A small talk is a good way to kill time and make friends. When you are in other countries, do you know h 1 to have small talks with people?
In England, the best topic (话题) is the w 2 . It’s also a safe (安全) topic. You can start a small talk by saying “It’s a fine d 3 , isn’t it?”
English people love their pets, so it’s also nice to start with “A l 4 dog!”, “What’s its name?” But American people like to talk a 5 sports like soccer and basketball. They also talk about clothes like “It’s a nice shirt. Where d 6 you buy it?” The weather is a safe topic in America, too.
Of course, there are also a lot of topics to avoid (避免) during small talks. Don’t ask people, “How old are you?” And never ask, “How much money do you make? Where are you w 7 now?” It makes people f 8 impolite (不礼貌的). Don’t ask the other person if he or she has a girlfriend o 9 a boyfriend when you first meet.
At last, please remember it’s also important to be polite when you talk with o 10 .
Passage 12
请认真阅读下面短文, 并根据各题所给首字母的提示,写出一个合适的英语单词完整、正确的形式,使短文通顺。
Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then how? Here is an e 1 .
There was a farmer who grew corn (玉米) all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market, and each time his corn was chosen as the b 2 and won the first prize (奖励).
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something surprising about how he grew it. The farmer would always o 3 his seed (种子) corn to his neighbors.
“How can you share your good seed corn with your neighbors?” the reporter asked. “You know they are taking part in the competition with you each year.”
“Well, you know, sir,” said the farmer. “The wind will pick up pollen (花粉) from the corn and will quickly m 4 it from field to field. If my neighbors grow b 5 corn, cross-pollination (异花传粉) will be not good for my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, I must h 6 my neighbors to grow good corn.”
As a great man says, “We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give to others.” We can’t live w 7 food, clothes, or many other things. H 8 , a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get, but by how much we can give to others. Giving, not taking, will m 9 us different from other animals. So those who choose to live well must help others to live well, and those who choose to be happy must help others to find h 10 in their life.

Passage 12
请认真阅读下面短文, 并根据各题所给首字母的提示,写出一个合适的英语单词完整、正确的形式,使短文通顺。
Do you want to be successful in everything you do? If so, then how? Here is an e 1 .
There was a farmer who grew corn (玉米) all his life. Each year he took his corn to the market, and each time his corn was chosen as the b 2 and won the first prize (奖励).
One year a newspaper reporter interviewed him and learned something surprising about how he grew it. The farmer would always o 3 his seed (种子) corn to his neighbors.
“How can you share your good seed corn with your neighbors?” the reporter asked. “You know they are taking part in the competition with you each year.”
“Well, you know, sir,” said the farmer. “The wind will pick up pollen (花粉) from the corn and will quickly m 4 it from field to field. If my neighbors grow b 5 corn, cross-pollination (异花传粉) will be not good for my corn. So if I want to grow good corn, I must h 6 my neighbors to grow good corn.”
As a great man says, “We make a living by what we get; we make a life by what we give to others.” We can’t live w 7 food, clothes, or many other things. H 8 , a meaningful life is not decided by how much we can get, but by how much we can give to others. Giving, not taking, will m 9 us different from other animals. So those who choose to live well must help others to live well, and those who choose to be happy must help others to find h 10 in their life.
