I landed on a piece of glass that cut my eye badly. From then on, my sightless and cloudy gray eye lived on with me. Sometimes people asked me embarrassing questions. When kids played games, I was the“monster”. I grew up imagining that everyone looked down on me. Yet my mum would say to me,“Hold your head up high and face the world.” I began to rely on that saying. As a child, I thought Mum meant,“Be careful or you will fall down or knock into something because you are not looking.” As a teenager, I usually looked down to hide my shame. But I found that when I held my head up high, people liked me. In high school I even became the class president, but on the inside I still felt like a monster.All I really wanted was to look like everyone else. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mum and she would look at me with loving eyes and say,“Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them see the beauty that is inside instead of your appearance.” My mum's love gave me confidence. I had faced hardships, and learned not only to appreciate(感激) myself but to have deep compassion (同情) for others. “Hold your head up high” has been heard many times in my home. I say it to my children. The gift my mum gave me lives on. 34. There was something wrong with the writer's according to the text. A. eye B. ear C. face 35. The underlined word“monster” in the second paragraph means“ ” in Chinese. A.对手 B.玩伴 C.怪物 36. From the story, we can infer(推断) that . A. the writer understood the saying very well as a child B. the writer felt like everyone else in high school C. the writer is living with a warm and brave heart now 37. Which would be the best title for the article? A. My Mom's Gift to Me B. How I Found My Life Partner C. My Terrible Childhood Accident C Licorice (甘草) is a magical plant whose name comes from its sweet taste. In the wild, it doesn't look special, but it's one of the most widely used plants in traditional Chinese medicine. It's used in small amounts in formulas (配方), but it can balance many herbs, so it's called the“balance master”. In Ordos City, Inner Mongolia, licorice grows very well. The ground here is dry, but there is water underground. The roots of licorice can grow two or three metres deep underground, holding the sand tightly and preventing sandstorms. That's why licorice is also called the“sand control fighter”. The seeds of licorice are very hard. They can stay good even in high heat and mold (霉菌). They can wait for the best time to come up. It's interesting that strong acid (酸) doesn't harm licorice seeds.Instead, it helps them come up. Licorice was also very important in ancient medicine. Zhang Zhongjing from the Eastern Han Dynasty mentioned 113 prescriptions ( 处方) in his Treatise on Cold Pathogenic and Miscellaneous Diseases(《伤寒杂病论》), and 70 of them included licorice. Licorice is used very often, but it doesn't take over. It helps to reduce the side effects (副作用) of other herbs. Now, to protect wild licorice, researchers have set up a resource library. Through a national survey of Chinese medicine resources, they have a better understanding of the distribution (分布) of wild licorice. Licorice is not only used in medicine but also plays an important role in food. In Chaozhou, people boil licorice water and mix it with fruit to make a cool dessert. Licorice can also be used as a spice (香料), and mixed with other spices to make the taste more wonderful. Licorice is a plant that grows freely, and it brings rich rewards to humans. It comes from the wild north and brings a sweet taste to people. 38. What is the main reason why licorice is called the“balance master”? A. It has a very sweet taste. B. It balances different herbs in a formula. C. It is used in many medicine formulas. 39. What is the main idea of paragraph 2? A. Licorice fights against sandstorms. B. Licorice can't grow in Ordos. C. Ordos has dry ground conditions. 40. What will happen when licorice seeds meet strong acid? A. They turn into water. B. They get destroyed easily. C. They aren't affected and can even grow. 41. What does the underlined word“it” in paragraph 5 refer to? A. Licorice dessert. B. Licorice seed. C. Licorice water. D 阅读短文，根据短文内容，完成下列各题。 Lily loved singing more than anything. Every evening, she closed her bedroom door and sang softly to her old radio. But outside her room, she stayed silent— even her parents hardly heard her voice.

At the audition, Lily was so nervous that her knees were shaking as she stood before the judges. The music started, but her voice shook and sounded strange. She forgot the words halfway through. A judge smiled gently:“Maybe next time.” Lily ran to the bathroom, tears out of her eyes. That night, Mia arrived with cookies shaped like music notes and a plan.“Meet your new audience!” She pointed at Lily's fat orange cat sleeping on the sofa.“Mr. Whiskers loves your songs!” At first, Lily whispered the songs, but Mia's silly dances made her laugh. Night after night, they sang to the cat, and Lily's voice grew louder and she became confident. On Music Day, Mia caught a cold and couldn't perform. Backstage, Lily froze, clutching(紧握) Mia's sparkly hairpin(闪亮的发夹).“Just sing like we do for Mr. Whiskers,” Mia told Lily.When Lily's clear voice filled the hall, even the teachers tapped their feet(用脚轻轻打节拍).After the cheers, her friend Mia hugged her happily. 42.
