Dad took out a big piece of paper and put it on the fridge. “Every job needs a name,” he said. Mum is good at cooking, so she cooks dinner. My brother Kevin cleans the bathroom, and I sweep the floor and wash the windows. Kevin does not like his job at all, so Dad adds a small star to the chart for every job we finish. Five stars mean a family film night. Our bedrooms are small, so we tidy them by ourselves. Kevin's desk is always a mess, but he cleans it before Saturday. Now there are many stars on the chart. The chart is not only about cleaning. It teaches us to share the work at home, and that makes everyone in the family happy. ( ) 1. When did the family talk about the housework for the new week? A.

They asked the community to let them grow a small garden in that place. On Saturday morning, more than ten people came. Mrs Wu brought young tomato plants, and Mr Chen carried two heavy bags of soil(土壤). Children helped too. We put water on the plants and took out the wild grass. The work was hard, but nobody wanted to stop. In summer, the garden turned green. Red flowers stand along the wall, and the tomatoes smell sweet in the sun. When we pick them, we wash the freshly picked ones and put a plate of them on a small table for everyone to share. Now the garden is a favourite place in our street. Neighbours stop and say hello to each other there. A small garden brought a big change. ( ) 1. Who had the idea of growing a garden in front of the building? A. Some teachers. B. Some children. C.

She has a small grey cat called Mimi. When Mrs Lin went to see her daughter in another city last month, she asked me to look after Mimi for a week. Every morning I went to her flat before school. I opened the window, gave Mimi her food and washed her water bowl. At first Mimi hid under the bed. She was afraid of me, a stranger in her home. After three days, her little face began to look familiar to me, and she waited for me at the door. One evening my dad gave me a lift home from the sports centre. On the way I told him a joke about Mimi: she now sits on my schoolbag and never lets me go. Dad laughed and said Mimi found a new friend. On Sunday, Mrs Lin came back.

You can turn one strong box into a book corner for your room. First, clean the box and let it dry. Then choose some paper you like. Use a pair of scissors to cut the paper into long strips(纸条). Put the glue on the box and cover it with the paper. After ten minutes, the old box has a new face. Next, put your books inside. You can also put a small light on the top, so you can read in the evening. If you have no books, borrow a few from the school library. Books are heavy, so ask a friend to help you when you carry them home. My little sister made a book corner last month. She put it next to her bed. Now she reads for twenty minutes every evening. An old box in the corner became her favourite place. ( ) 1. What can we do with old boxes at home? A. To turn one into a book corner. B. To throw them away. C. To sell them in the street. D. To give them to the school. ( ) 2. What should the box look like before we start the work? A. It should be full of books. B. It should be very heavy. C. It should be dry and clean. D. It should be as small as a hand. ( ) 3. Why should we put a small light on the box? A. To make the box heavy. B. To read in the evening. C. To keep the paper dry. D. To help the sister sleep. ( ) 4. What happened after the little sister made her book corner? A. She gave it to her friend. B. She put it in the living room. C. She reads for twenty minutes every evening. D. She bought many new books. 第 5 篇　A Video Call Home My grandma lives in a small town and is seventy this year. Last month she got her first smartphone, and she is learning to use it. On Tuesday I sent her a text(短信) to say hello. She answered at once: “I can see your face!” Then she called me, and we talked for about half an hour. I wanted her to see my new room, so I turned the phone around and described every corner of it to her: the desk, the window and my small bookshelf. Grandma said the flowers on my desk were lovely and asked their names. It does not matter that we are far away. A video call makes the distance(距离) short. Grandma did not visit our flat yet, but she says she will come in October. Before we said goodbye, she took a photo of the screen(屏幕) with her other hand. “Now I can look at you every day,” she said. I laughed and could not say a word. ( ) 1. Where does Grandma live? A. In a big city. B. In a flat in the city. C. Near the school. D. In a small town. ( ) 2. How long did the phone call last? A.

It was Clean-Up Day. We put on old clothes and took big bags for the rubbish. Mr Zhao, our team leader, handed every helper a pair of gloves and a small note with a map on it. “Work in pairs,” he said. “Do not go near the river until I tell you it is safe.” My partner was a quiet boy called Leo. We walked along the small roads and pulled dry leaves and old bottles out of the grass. At first Leo said nothing. Then he found a broken toy car and smiled. “This was mine when I was little,” he said. “Someone threw it away.” At noon our bag was so heavy that we had to stop and rest. Several neighbours came out with cold water and thanked us again and again. An old man said he would join us next time. When Mr Zhao asked us to say what we learned, nobody needed much time. We all said the same thing: a clean street is not the work of one person. It begins when people decide to move together. ( ) 1. What did every helper get from Mr Zhao? A. A big bag of food. B. Gloves and a map. C. A new toy car. D. A bottle of cold water. ( ) 2. Why did Leo smile when he found the toy car? A. Because it was his own old toy. B. Because he wanted to sell it. C.

Old clothes, broken toys and boxes of paper filled every corner. We tried a simple idea: two boxes. One box was for the things we still use, and the other was for the things we never touch. It took us a whole weekend to pack and choose. It was harder than I thought. Almost every old thing carried a story. But here is what surprised me. The moment the door closed behind a full box, the room seemed to open its arms. Sunlight reached the wall again. My mum sat on the floor and laughed like a child. We did not throw everything away. Good clothes and books went to a second-hand market at the gate of our block, where other families could take them home for free. Now our home is still small, but it feels large. Fewer things, more joy — that is the small lesson our family learned this spring. ( ) 1. What did the family do with the two boxes? A. They bought two more big boxes. B. They moved to a bigger house.

Two Boxes for a New Life C. A Weekend in the Market D. The Toys I Loved 第 8 篇　A Birthday Clue Game For my twelfth birthday, my parents did something different. They did not buy me a big cake. Instead, they set up a treasure hunt at home. In the morning, I found a card on my breakfast table. It said: “Welcome to your own birthday game! Find four clues and the surprise is yours.” The first clue took me to the place where we keep our shoes. The second one waited under my pillow(枕头). I invited my two best friends to join in. They came at ten, and their arrival made the house noisy and happy at once. We worked as a team, and each clue gave us a small puzzle(谜题). The last clue hid behind a plant and asked us to sing a song before we could open the box. Inside the box there was no gold, of course. There were three tickets for a science museum and a letter from my parents. “Time with you is our best gift,” it said. We ran to the kitchen and hugged them. That was the best birthday I ever had.

Children should learn to make puzzles. 第 9 篇　A Night Without Phones Last month my father made a new rule for our family: one night every week, no phones. At first my brother and I thought it would be boring. What can a family do without phones? The answer came quickly — a movie night. The first Friday was not easy. My brother's phone was dead, and he was worried about missing messages from his friends. My father put all our phones into a small box and closed it. “This box will rest tonight,” he said. “So can we.” We chose an old film about a long journey by train. Halfway through the story, my mother stopped the film and told us about her own trip to see her grandparents when she was young. We listened, and the room felt warm. Wherever our family goes in the future, I think we will remember that night. We did not travel anywhere, but we went a long way together — from a quiet sofa, in front of a small screen, back to each other. Now Friday is my favourite day of the week. ( ) 1. Why did the father make the new family rule? A. Because the phones were broken. B. Because the children asked for it. C. Because he wanted to save money. D.

A Box for Phones B. A Family Night Without Phones C. My Favourite Friday Night D. How to Choose an Old Film 第 10 篇　The Shop at the End of the Street There is a small biscuit shop at the end of our street. Its owner, Mr Huang, opens the door at six every morning, and the whole street knows that the warm butter is ready before the sun is up. Mr Huang remembers everyone. He knows that old Mrs Zhou always comes before eight, that the twins on the third floor buy two bags each time, and that my father needs his coffee before work. He never puts these things down on paper; they live in his head. Last month our neighbourhood newspaper asked students to send in stories about the people around us. I chose Mr Huang. I sat in his shop for three afternoons and watched him work. Then I sent in a short piece called “The Warmest Corner on Our Street”. Two weeks later, the paper came out. Mr Huang read it five times. He said nothing at first. Then he put a small bag in my hand and said, “Now I am a famous man. Perhaps I should work harder.” I am not a real writer, but that day I understood something. A good story is often about an ordinary person who quietly makes a street warmer. ( ) 1. When does Mr Huang open his shop every day? A. At six in the morning. B. At eight in the morning. C. At noon. D. At six in the evening. ( ) 2. Why does Mr Huang remember everyone? A. Because he keeps a long list in the shop. B. Because his shop is very big. C. Because he asks people about themselves every day. D. Because he knows the habits of his neighbours. ( ) 3. Why did Mr Huang say “Perhaps I should work harder”? A. Because the newspaper was expensive. B. Because he wanted to make more money. C. Because the shop was very busy that day. D. Because he felt happy and proud after reading the story. ( ) 4. The underlined word “ordinary” in the last paragraph means ______. A. very rich B. hard-working C. not famous or special D. quiet and shy ( ) 5. What does this passage mainly tell us? A. Students should send stories to newspapers. B. Ordinary people can make our life warmer. C. Small shops sell the best food. D. A good newspaper needs many stories. 参考答案 第 1 篇 D A A B 第 2 篇　　1. C　2.
