Light rain fell as I walked along a small path into the 36 . In front of me stood Maverick Concert Hall, an old wooden building that looked more like a barn (谷仓). Then I entered the hall. 37 I sat down on the chair, it creaked (嘎吱作响) loudly, so I stayed still right away. I picked up the concert list. All the other titles looked quite similar, but a strange title 38 : 4’33” by John Cage “What exactly is this music about?” I 39 . The pianist walked onto the stage. He smiled and 40 to the audience before taking his seat at the piano. He then took out a stopwatch (秒表) and 41 it beside the piano. We all waited patiently, being 42 about what performance would follow next. Yet he just kept looking at the watch and did nothing. At first, everyone sat quietly. 43 soon the whole hall felt strange. I looked around and noticed many people seemed confused. Then a cough suddenly broke the 44 . More listeners began to talk in low voices. Outside, rain beat the roof and wind 45 the leaves gently. Somewhere in the woods, a bird sang softly. Then I noticed the smallest sounds, the ones I 46 paid attention to: my own breathing and heartbeat. 47 . I realized why the pianist didn’t play anything: Every sound around us was a part of this special 48 rain, wind, birds, even the people ... There was no perfect silence — unless we 49 and pay attention. We often live a busy life. Music isn’t just something played on a stage.

When they arrived, Cheng Yi was sleeping. Instead of waking him up, they waited quietly outside in the heavy snow. Until Cheng Yi woke up, the snow had covered their feet. Respect and sincerity are the best gifts for teachers. For us, it means we should respect our teachers, and be serious about every lesson. (Peter) “Studying by the Light of Fireflies and Snow” How would you study without light? We may learn from two ancient students, Che Yin and Sun Kang. Chen Yin used fireflies (萤火虫) to read at night, and Sun Kang studied by the light of snow in winter. They never gave up learning even in hard times. Their spirit tells us to value chances and keep working hard. No difficulty can stop a true learner. (Teng Fei) “Sending Charcoal (木炭) in Snowy Weather My favorite story tells us helping others when they are in need. An emperor ordered charcoal for the poor during a heavy snowstorm. Last winter, I caught a bad cold. I felt helpless. Then my friend Lily noticed my situation. She gave up her favorite movie night, bought me medicine and hot soup, and stayed with me until I felt better. It also made me want to be that kind of person for others, too. (Emma) 51.

Daily habits. D. Learning methods. B Jake was playing outside when he found a possum (负鼠) stuck in the window well (窗井). “Hey there,” he said softly. But the possum shouted at him sharply. Unlike the cute, friendly possums in his picture books, this one looked angry and scared, so Jake took a slow step back. Just then, his elder brothers Artie and Danny walked over. “Wow, a stuck possum! Let’s start our action: Rescue Possum!” they shouted. They rushed back to the house, where they began talking about building pulleys (轮滑) and using a sandwich as bait to make it come near, so they could help it out. Jake watched them for a minute and thought their plan sounded too difficult. Quietly, he found a long, strong board in the house. His brothers were so busy with their plan that they didn’t notice him carrying the board to the window well. He carefully put one end into the well and the other end on the ground, making a rising board right next to the possum. The possum shouted at the board, but Jake said gently, “Calm down. It’s safe.” He climbed up to his treehouse to wait. After a few minutes, the possum smelled the board, then touched it with one hand. Slowly, it climbed up the board and out of the well, running into the woods behind the house. Jake smiled as he watched it go. “Rescue Possum” was a success — and sometimes, simple idea works best! 56. Why did Jake step back at first? A. He needed to check the whole situation. B. He wanted to get help at once. C. The possum seemed angry and afraid. D. The possum ran towards him. 57. The underlined word “bait” most likely means “something used to ________ animals”. A. attract B. check C. cover D. warn 58. How did Jake help the possum escape? A. He picked it up with his hands. B. He used a board as a ladder. C. He built pulleys to pull it out. D. He called others to help. 59. What’s the correct order of the following events? ①The possum ran into the woods. ②Jake climbed up to the tree house. ③Jake found a long and strong board. ④Jake’s brothers thought up a rescue plan. A. ③①②④ B. ④③②① C. ④①③② D. ②④①③ 60. What can we learn from the story? A. Less is more. B. Never say never. C. Time is money. D. Seeing is believing. C Have you ever looked up at the sky and wished you could tell what the weather will be like? You don’t need a high-tech machine to do this. Studying clouds is one of the oldest and easiest ways to tell the weather. Cirrus clouds (卷云) are thin, like horse tails. They form very high in the sky, and are made of tiny ice crystals (冰晶). When you see them, it usually means the weather will stay nice and clear. Next are cumulus humilis clouds (淡积云). These are white clouds that look like sheep. They stay low in the sky. They often come with bright sunshine and blue skies, so they are a sign of good weather. Cirrostratus clouds (薄幕卷层云) are thin, sheet-like clouds that also form high up. They are made of ice. If you see them in the morning, rain is likely to come soon. Nimbostratus clouds (雨层云) are low, dark clouds that cover the whole sky. When they roll in, rain or snow is on the way. The good thing is that they don’t bring lightning. Instead of sudden, heavy storms, they cause long lasting rain or snow. Finally, cumulonimbus clouds (积雨云) are tall and huge, like mountains. They form when air rises very quickly, and they are most common in summer. These clouds are a red flag: they mean a thunderstorm is nearby. The sky has a lot to tell us if we just look up. By learning these cloud types, you can tell the weather by yourself. 61. If you see cirrostratus clouds in the morning, what should you do? A. Climb up high. B. Take an umbrella. C. Stay indoors all day. D. Wear cool clothes. 62. What do cirrostratus, nimbostratus, and cumulonimbus clouds have in common? A. They bring rain. B They are tall. C. They form low in the sky. D. They are common in summer. 63. According to the passage, which picture shows cumulonimbus clouds? A. B. C. D. 64. How does the writer organize the passage? A. Tell a story → give advice. B. Present a cause → show effects. C. Raise a question → state facts. D. Describe a problem → offer solutions. 65. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To list different types of clouds. B. To warn against natural disasters. C. To describe seasonal weather. D. To help tell weather through clouds. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题 共40分） 五、词与短语填空（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，然后用下面方框中所给的单词或短语填空，使短文在结构、句义和逻辑上正确。（提示：方框中有两个单词或短语是多余的。） drink / look for / weak / cool / hear from / conditions / clearly Many desert animals have special ways to live in hard 66 .

It all started when a Chinese student left 71 (she) English textbook near Big Ben — the same famous building was on the book’s cover. The idea is simple: Take the textbook to the place on the cover, post a photo, and leave the book for others 72 (discover). Soon, many people joined in. They 73 (hide) textbooks near bridges and walls. Finders either put them back 74 moved them to new places. Part of the fun is finding the book in a 75 (surprise) place. The starter invited people to leave short messages inside. She put the book and a pen in a bag. Slowly, the pages have been filled with warm 76 (wish) like “world peace”. When there was no more space, people added sticky notes; when the pen ran out of ink, someone replaced it 77 (quick). As the books travel among people, 78 (kind) spreads as well. Sometimes we may feel lonely, but small acts like this 79 (remind) us that we are all connected. When we pass it on, it can travel far — from one person 80 another. It’s a beautiful way to spread warmth in the world we share. 七、书面表达（共1大题，满分20分） 本学期，你们学校举办了“成长”主题系列活动，包括：科技节（Science Festival)、阅读分享会（Reading Sharing）、志愿服务活动（Volunteer Service）等。请你根据以下提示写一篇短文，参加学校英语报的征文活动。 What activity did you join in?

We tidied up their rooms, read newspapers to them. We also listened to their life stories and shared our school life. This activity has helped me greatly. I used to be shy and self-centered. Now I am patient and good at getting along with others. I’ve learned true happiness lies in giving others warmth. This special experience makes me a more responsible person. I will keep doing volunteer work in my free time. (105词) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
