Many children’s books use animals as the main characters. Many people look after animals as pets. The love for animals may be why both children and adults (成年人) enjoy going to zoos. In the past, zoos were usually started by rich people. The first zoo was started by a queen in Egypt in 1500 BC. Raising animals was a way for people to show they were wealthy and powerful. Sadly, the animals in the early zoos were not treated well. They didn’t receive enough attention or care. Today, zoos still bring people pleasure, but they try to protect animals and teach people as well. Zoos must follow rules. People must provide animals with a clean place to live, food, water, and health care. In this way, the rules help protect the animals. Some people think the rules are not enough. They want to do more to protect the animals they love. For example, people disapproved of the use of some large animals in shows. They thought the zoos didn’t have enough space for the animals to put on shows. They also thought the animals were not treated properly. Because so many people were against the shows, the zoos decided to make a change. People see animals in zoos. At the same time, they try to learn about and protect them. Both people and animals can get a lot from each other. 36. Who started the first zoo? A. A queen in Egypt. B. A king in Egypt. C. A queen in England. D. A king in England. 37. How does the writer feel about the animals in the early zoos? A. He doesn’t care about them. B. He feels sad for them. C. He is proud of them. D. He is afraid of them. 38.

The underlined phrase “disapproved of” in Paragraph 4 means “________”. A. wrote about B. depended on C. were against D. were good at 40. What is the passage mainly about? A. Large animals in shows. B. Famous zoos around the world. C. Animals in the wild. D. Zoos in the past and today. C Progress means the act of going forward. Making any kind of progress can make us healthy and happy in life. By setting and actively working towards our goals, we can make progress in our life. To make more progress in life, start looking at problems in a different way. Whatever happens, if we think positively, it can be useful and helpful. We need to know that problems are part of our life. After we solve problems one after another, we can make more progress and become stronger. Having confidence (信心) is helpful for us to make progress. Confidence comes from different places, such as proper education, training or having good relationships. We should also stay with people who believe in our success and actively support us. These people can help push us towards progress. Slow progress is still progress. Just as the old saying goes, “It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.” Progress usually comes a lot more slowly than we expect. Even if progress is slow, try not to be worried. One important thing is that we keep taking steps towards our goals, and another is that we clearly remember what our goals are all the time. The actual speed isn’t important. The road to progress is not always smooth. Most progress often comes with setbacks along the way. Sometimes, maybe it feels like we’re taking one step forward and three steps back, but it won’t always be like that. Keep going towards our goals and we can much more easily make the progress we want. Progress doesn’t always happen in a straight line. As long as we keep working, we will achieve higher levels. 41. What does progress make us do? A. Set lifelong goals. B. Go forward easily. C. Live healthily and happily. D. Think about new things. 42. What does Paragraph 3 tell us? A. We should support different people. B. Some people can push us to failure. C. Confidence helps us make progress. D. Different schools expect the same progress. 43. What does the writer say about slow progress? A. It often goes smoothly. B. It still means progress. C. It sometimes stops progress. D. It always gives us a clear mind. 44. Which word is close to the underlined word “setbacks”? A. Prizes. B. Advantages. C. Excuses. D. Difficulties. 45. Which can be a proper title for the text? A. Ideas about Making Progress B. Keys to Speeding up Progress C. Meanings of Having Confidence D. Suggestions on Relationships 四、补全对话。 根据对话内容，选择恰当的句子将对话补充完整。（选项中有两项是多余的） A: Morning! What can I do for you? B: We’d like to take a trip for a weekend holiday, please. A: There are many travel routes. ____46____ B: We’d like to choose Huangshan Mountain. A: It’s one of the most famous mountains in China.

If we are feeling great, we may give our body signals (信号). If we look at someone else’s body, we can often tell how they are feeling by their body signals. So reading body language signals is a great tool for daily communication. Someone doesn’t think that learning how to read and use body language is important. In fact, 7% of the information we receive is from what people actually say and 38% of the information we receive is from the tone (语气) and the speed of their voice, while 55% of the information we receive is from their body language. Facial expression is one of the body languages. Scientists say that humans have 80 muscles (肌肉) on their faces. These muscles can make 7000 different facial expressions. They can be divided into six kinds: happiness, sadness, anger, surprise, fear and disgust (厌恶). For example, when people think a certain food tastes disgusting, they usually make a funny face. When people are surprised, they often raise their eyebrows and open their eyes wide. If people can read body language correctly, they may be better at knowing other people’s feelings. However, be careful not to stare at others for a long time because it is not polite. 61. ________ is a great tool for daily communication. 62. We can receive ________ from the speed of people’s voice. 63. The six kinds in the facial expressions are ________ sadness, anger, surprise, fear and disgust. 64. People show their surprise through facial expression by ________. 65. People shouldn’t stare at people for a long time because ________. 七、首字母填空。 On the first day of school, children can be very nervous.

A new British survey s____66____ that one in three parents are worried that their children will not make friends when they start school.

They questioned more than 2,000 parents and f____67____ that parents are more likely to care about their children’s ability to make friends than their lessons. 33% of the parents put not making friends on top of the list of their worries about their children, w____68____ just 11% of the parents said their main worry is that their children will not be able to keep up with the schoolwork.
