I like them because they can change colours. Lots of people think that chameleons change colours to match (相配) where they are. But that’s not right! Chameleons change colours when they’re scared or unhappy, or when they’re too cold or too hot. Chameleons have very long tongues (舌头). They can use their tongues to get their food easily. I think they’re interesting animals! Anna: I really love elephants because they are strong and clever. I love their large ears and long trunks. Elephants can pick up food and put it in their mouths with their trunks. I like watching elephants on TV and I love baby elephants best. They’re so lovely. But elephants are in great danger now. We must find out some ways to save them. Isabella: Dolphins are my favorite animals. I like them because they’re so clever and friendly. Some dolphins live in zoos and they can bring exciting shows to us, like jumping or playing with balls. 11. When do chameleons change colours? A. When they feel happy and warm. B. When they feel too cold or too hot. C. When they want to find some food. 12. How does Anna like elephants? A. Strong and clever. B. Clever but awful. C. Clever and friendly 13. What can Isabella’s favorite animals do? A. They can change colours. B. They can bring exciting shows to us. C. They can pick up food with their trunks. B In a small village during the Song Dynasty, there lived a kind mother and her three daughters. The mother worked hard every day weaving (编织) baskets to sell at the market. One day, she became very sick and couldn’t work. The eldest daughter said, “Don’t worry, Mother, I will weave the baskets for you.” But when she tried, she made many mistakes and the baskets broke. The second daughter tried next. Though she wove carefully, her baskets were too loose (松的) and couldn’t hold anything. Finally, the youngest daughter, who had only watched her mother work before, tried her best. But her baskets were even worse than her sisters’. The mother weakly (虚弱地) called them to her bedside. “Work together,” she said softly. “Let the eldest prepare the bamboo, the middle daughter weave the base, and the youngest add the finishing touches.” When the sisters combined (结合) their skills, they created the most beautiful and strong baskets they had ever seen. The mother smiled and said, “Alone we are weak, but together we are strong. This is how a family should be.” Soon, their baskets became famous throughout the province, and the family lived a good life. 14. Why couldn’t the mother work? A. Because she was too old. B. Because she was very sick. C. Because she wanted to teach a lesson. 15. What was the mother’s advice for her daughters? A. To work alone. B. To find other work. C. To work together using their different skills. 16. What happened when the sisters worked together? A. They failed again. B. They made common baskets. C. They created excellent baskets. 17. What is the main lesson of this story? A. A good start makes a thing half done. B. Working together makes the work easier. C. Only by working hard can we get results. C How do you feel when you have to make a speech in front of class? What about when you go to a birthday party? Do you get really shy? Shyness means feeling worried or afraid when you’re around other people. Experts (专家) have found that more than 80 percent of middle school students feel afraid to be the center of attention (注意). Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences. It’s OK if it takes you a minute to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just a problem of how much. Most people have red faces and talk in broken language when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they hardly go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person. If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Some great people in history were shy, too. You see, being shy isn’t all bad. But remember not to let good chances pass by just because of it! If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practice your spoken English in front of others, just do it! There’s nothing to be afraid of. 18. How does the writer start the passage? A. showing facts B. listing numbers C. asking questions 19. What does the underlined phrase “to feel yourself again” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. to be oneself B. to change oneself C. to help oneself. 20. What kind of shyness can be bad according to the passage? A. You find it hard to enjoy yourself at a party. B. You feel a little nervous when you go to a new place. C. You are afraid of meeting new people and hardly go outside. 21. What can we infer from the passage? A. shy people can also be successful B. shy people can’t change themselves C. shy people become shy from their birth (出生) 第四部分 任务型阅读（共4小题；每小题2分，共8分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容，完成下列各题。 Many young people travelled to Xi’an in Shaanxi Province to find out about the city through a “Citywalk” during the summer holiday.
