One was on the fourth floor and the other was on the seventh floor. “We Chinese like the number 8. 8 means we will get rich. We also like 9 because it means we can live long. But we don’t like the number 4 because it sounds like ‘death’ in Chinese. I think if we sleep on the fourth floor, we may die.” The Greeks said, “We want the room on the fourth floor. In Greece, 4 is a lucky number.” The South Korean said, “We don’t like number 4 or 13. 4 sounds like ‘death’ and 13 is an unlucky number in the west.” The tourists from the west said, “Oh, we love number 7. There are seven days in the world as it says in the Bible (圣经). We don’t like the number 13. It is an unlucky number. If we sleep on the 13th floor, ...” “In Japan, 4 sounds like ‘death’, so we don’t like it. And 6 is also not welcome. There isn’t the fourth floor or the sixth floor in the tall buildings in our country. However, we like 7 very much”, said the Japanese. At last, only the Greeks lived on the 4th floor, and the rest slept on the 7th floor. 31. Why do Chinese people like number 9? A. Because people like drinking wine. B.

He grew up in a poor family and didn’t have enough money for lamp oil to study at night. One night, he saw fireflies (萤火虫) outside his house and came up with an idea. He caught some fireflies in a cloth bag and hung the bag up as a lamp. It is said that he spent all of his summer nights reading like this. Another child named Sun Kang also loved reading. One night during winter, Sun used up all his lamp oil and couldn’t study at night. When he woke up at night, he saw the snow reflecting (反射) the moonlight outside his house. “Oh, I can use the reflected light to read!” he thought. He took out his books and read, even though he was freezing cold. Both of the kids later became successful government officials (政府官员). People were moved because of their hard-working spirit (精神) and turned their stories into the Chinese idiom (成语) nangying yingxue. Present Xi Jinping once told these stories at the Party School of the CPC Central Committee (中共中央党校). He talked about nangying yingxue, xuanliang cigu and zaobi touguang. All of these stories encourage people to study hard even though they will meet difficulties. Xi hopes that government officials can keep this hard-working spirit in mind. All of us can learn a lot from these stories. Although they don’t take place in modern times, they are just like the light of fireflies—they light up the road to knowledge. 36. Why did Che Yin collect fireflies? A. Because fireflies are bright enough for him to read. B. Because he wanted to do an experiment. C. Because he wanted to play with them for fun. D. Because he wanted to show them to his friends. 37. What did Che Yin and Sun Kang have in common? A. They liked nature and animals. B. They were rich and they liked to read. C. They worked very hard and became successful. D. They became teachers. 38. How many idioms are mentioned in the passage? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 39. What is the purpose of President Xi Jinping to talk about the stories? A. He hopes that government officials can read more books. B. He hopes that government officials can keep the hard-working spirit in mind. C. He hopes that more people can become government officials. D. He hopes that all people can learn more knowledge. 40. What is the best title for the passage? A. Read More and Become Successful B. Work Hard at Night C. Road to Knowledge D. Old Stories, Hard-working Spirits C Though oceans cover about 71 percent of the earth’s surface, there’s still a lot we don’t know about them. Only about 20 percent of the seafloor has been mapped, and the remaining 80 percent is still a secret to us. Some scientists even think that 91 percent of sea animals have yet to be discovered. So why do we know so little about the deep sea? Well, getting to those depths is very difficult and requires high technology that simply didn’t come into being for most of human history. The first navigable submarine (可驾驶的潜水艇), for example, was built in 1620, and it couldn’t go more than five meters below the surface. In fact, for a long time many scientists didn’t even think that there could be any life at depths greater than 550 meters and didn’t see much need to explore (探索) the deep sea. However, this changed in 1862 when life was discovered as far down as 945 meters below sea level with the help of a digging machine. Ten years later, around 4, 700 species (物种) unknown before from the ocean floor were discovered. Since then, high technology has been developed to help explore the deep sea, including satellites. But why is deep-sea exploration still so difficult? Well, at greater depths it is freezing (极冷的), everything is completely dark, and the pressure can be over 1, 000 times greater than that on the surface. Though we have the difficulties, it’s important that we understand the seas. They help control the earth’s temperature and produce half of the oxygen (O2) in the air. They can also provide us with information about climate change. Our future depends on learning more about our oceans, and it is possible for us to really understand what is ongoing below the surface. 41. Why are some numbers listed in Paragraph 1? A. To introduce how important oceans are. B. To discuss why sea animals have yet to be found out. C. To explain that oceans cover a large area of the earth. D. To show that we have only a little understanding of oceans. 42. What caused the change of exploration into the deep sea? A. High technology. B. Unknown species. C. A pleasant environment. D. Valuable information. 43. What does the underlined word “They” in the last paragraph refer to? A. Sea animals. B. The seas. C. The satellites. D. Many scientists. 44. What can we learn from the text? A. It is difficult to build a navigable submarine. B. The seas have a strong influence on our future. C. The seas have no lives at a depth of 550 meters. D. It is easier to go into the deep sea than we think. 45. What could be the best title of the text? A. Hidden Treasures in Deep Sea B. Unlocked Secrets of Deep Sea C. Deep-Sea Exploration: Into the Freezing Depths D. Deep-Sea Exploration: The Past and the Future 五、阅读填空（共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分） 根据短文的内容，从所给的选项中选出能够填入短文空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.
