    On Thanksgiving Day, a teacher asked her class of first-graders to draw a picture of something they were thankful for. She thought that these children from poor families actually had little to be thankful for. And she found most of them drawing pictures of flowers or tables with food. The teacher was very surprised to see the picture Douglas handed in. It’s a hand, a simple hand.
    But whose hand? The class were very interested in the strange picture. “I think it must be the hand of God that bring us food,” said one child, “A farmer,” said another, “Because he grows beautiful flowers.” Finally when the others were at work, the teacher went over Douglas’ desk and asked whose hand it was. “It’s your hand, Teacher,” she said quietly and shyly.
    She remembered that she had often taken Douglas, a dirty lonely child, by the hand while having a class break. She often did that with the children. But it meant so much to Douglas. Perhaps this is everyone’s thanksgiving, not for the material things we get, but for the chance, in whatever small way, to give to others.
    【小题1】When did the story happen?

    A．On Christmas Day.B．On Teachers’ Day.
    C．On Mother’s Day.D．On Thanksgiving Day.
    【小题2】Why did Douglas draw the picture?
    A．He was good at drawing it.
    B．His teacher asked him to draw it.
    C．He wanted to show his thanks to the teacher.
    D．He hoped to get a prize in drawing.
    【小题3】What do you learn about Douglas from the passage?
    A．He was a lonely child.B．He was very active in class.
    C．He always kept his hand clean.D．He often answered questions loudly.
    【小题4】According to the passage, which of the following is an opinion (意见；主张；看法), but not a fact?
    A．The teacher went over Dauglas’ desk and talked to him.
    B．Different people show their thanksgiving in different ways.
    C．The teacher often took Douglas by the hand after class.
    D．Most of the students were drawing the pictures of flowers or tables with food.


    【小题1】D
    【小题2】C
    【小题3】A
    【小题4】B

    解析【小题1】本文第一句提到感恩节，所以本故事发生在感恩节，故本题选D。
    【小题2】本文第一段提到老师要求学生们画一幅画以表示对某人的感谢，第二段提到道格拉斯画了一只手，是老师的手，以表示对老师的感谢，故本题选C。
    【小题3】本文第三段第一句为She remembered that she had often taken Douglas, a dirty lonely child, 所以我们可知道格拉斯是一个孤独的儿童，故本题选A。

    A group of swans flew down to a beach where a crow (乌鸦) was jumping around. The crow watched them with disdain (笔试).
    “You have no flying skills at all!” he said to the swans. “All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air? No, that’s beyond you. Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what real flying is!”
    One of the swans, a strong young male, took up the challenge (挑战). The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, performed other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.
    Now it was the swan’s turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments (评价) about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn’t see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so exhausted that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to struggle to keep himself from falling into the water.
    The swan pretended (假装) not to notice, and said, “Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another trick? “
    “No,” said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition. “I’m in trouble because of my pride (自大) ! If you don’t help me, I’ll lose my life...”
    The swan took pity on him, and took him on his shoulders and flew back to the beach.

    Last weekend, when Jack was walking in the park, he saw a woman, who lived a few miles away, sitting on a bench with a dog beside her. The dog was looking up at the woman.

    One morning, Wu Liang discovered that her classroom had changed. She found that the desks were no longer in rows, but pushed together to make eight bigger desks. She was too excited about it for the first two days and she couldn’t listen to the teachers carefully. But soon she and her classmates got used to this new classroom arrangement (安排). ‘Now our class is quieter,’ said Wu Liang. ‘What’s more, we can come up with our own ideas and learn more through discussion. It’s a better way to study.’
    Li Yu liked it, too. He said, ‘Group members first discuss, and then show ourselves in front of the whole class. It makes us believe in ourselves.’ It was part of a reform (改革) at Li’s school. The school made this reform because they wanted to provide students with easier ways to study and more chances to discuss. ‘Our school hopes it can improve students’ abilities (能力) to study by themselves and work in groups,’ said Zhang Ming, an English teacher.
    However, the reform has demanded (要求) more from teachers. Now they have only 15 minutes to give the lesson which should be taught in 45 minutes before. It is difficult to teach in such a short time. The teachers have to find better ways to teach more effectively.
    ‘The reform demands more, but I’m sure it is helpful,’ added Zhang Ming.

    The worst danger is a house on fire when people are asleep. Always be ready to leave through a window into the garden by making sure you can open it if necessary. If you should be on holiday in a tall building or hotel, make sure you know where the fire escape（太平梯） is . When you can’t find any way out, try to find pieces of cloth and make a rope to get out of a window to safety. If you smell burning in your home, get out right away. If you can’t breathe properly because of smoke on your way out, crawl（爬行） on your hands and knees because smoke rises and the air will be cleaner near the floor. Smoke is a killer and more people have died from breathing it in than actually being burnt.
    Fire in a cinema, hall or public place often means people pushing to reach a door. Keep your head up with arms up in front of your chest（胸）.This protects your chest and gives you the best chance to breathe. Above all, don’t get frightened!
    【小题1】In a room filled with smoke ,you’d better crawl on the floor because__________.

    A．you won’t get burnt.B．the floor is cleaner
    C．there is less smoke near the floorD．you won’t breathe any smoke
    【小题2】Which of the following is NOT true?
    A．In a fire, more deaths are caused by smoke.
    B．The most important thing is not to be frightened in a fire
    C．When a public place is on fire, people usually push to leave.
    D．Be ready to leave a burning house through a window if there is a garden down below.
