A Long Time to Waft

Rob tapped his foot on the ground impatiently(不耐烦地). His friend, Steve, should meet him in five minutes. They were going to meet and watch a movie together, and Rob didn't want to miss a single minute of the show.

Both of them really liked ______ and tried to see one almost every week, but lately Steve had been arriving later and later. Rob complained about late friends in a low voice while he waited.

Rob began pacing(踱步)back and forth. When pacing didn't ______ him, he started to look at his watch from time to time. There were only three minutes left before he went in without his friend, Rob decided. Pacing was making him more impatient.

He wondered why Steve couldn't be on time. He wondered what______ Steve would have this time. Last time Steve had said it was because his dad needed help in the garden. What would be this time? There was only one minute Left. Then he heard a familiar voice, " Rob, I ______it! " Rob turned around and saw Steve. "You made it, and you are on time, too! " Rob said excitedly.

"Of course, " Steve replied, "I really wanted to see this movie."

"Well let's go then." Rob suggested. He ______ for his wallet, so he could buy a ticket. Where was his wallet?

"What's wrong?" Steve asked.

"I don't have my wallet." Rob replied ______.

"Go check in your car."

"I might be late then." Rob answered, feeling foolish. Here he'd been standing around waiting, and he was going to be the late one now. He ran across the parking lot.

By the time he got his wallet from his car and bought a ticket, he'd already ______ the beginning and he didn't have time to get popcorn or a drink. Steve shared his popcorn, but Rob could hardly eat it. He felt guilty(内疚的)during the whole movie.

When the movie was over, he apologized to Steve. "I'm sorry, Steve. I was complaining about you being late, but then I was the one who was late."

"I see that now. Thanks for ______. "

calm冷静;beat敲击;interest兴趣;warm温暖;根据“he started to look at his watch from time to time”他开始时不时地看看表,所以此处是平静。故选A

3句意:他想知道这次史蒂夫会有什么借口。

plan计划;advice建议;excuse借口;example例子;根据“Last time Steve had said it was because his dad needed help in the garden”上次史蒂夫说是因为他爸爸在花园里需要帮忙,所以此处是借口,故选C

4句意:我准时到了。

5句意:他伸手去拿钱包,以便买票。

reached到达;asked问;cared介意;left离开;根据“so he could buy a ticket. ”所以此处缺拿,故选A

6句意:“我没带钱包。”Rob焦虑地回答。

本文第三题考查名词。先确定四个词的意思。plan计划;advice建议;excuse借口;example例子;根据“Last time Steve had said it was because his dad needed help in the garden”上次史蒂夫说是因为他爸爸在花园里需要帮忙,所以此处是借口,故选C

【题目】Mr. and Mrs. Miller lived with a pet dog, Rita. They started a sailing trip with Rita last November. On the seventh day of the trip, Mr. and Mrs. Miller were having a wonderful time when a storm(暴风雨) suddenly came. While the Millers were trying hard to keep the boat out of danger, they forgot about Rita. A moment later, they found Rita was lost. The couple were worried if she had died in the water. “Because it was a cloudy day, we just couldn’t find her even though we searched carefully for over an hour,” Mrs. Miller told BBC News. “We thought that if she fell into the water, she would be gone because of the big waves.”

Mr. and Mrs. Miller kept sad on their way home because they lost their favorite pet. But four months later, they received some surprising news — Rita had been found on an island. After falling off the boat, she had swam five miles to the island. And she lived by eating small animals there.

The people on the island first thought that she was a wild dog because she did not let people come close to her. However, when Mr. and Mrs. Miller came to pick her up, Rita knew who they were at once. “After I called her name, she jumped up and almost knocked me down,” Mrs. Miller said.

Rita’s terrible experience was finally over. She is all right at home now, relaxing by the pool. But Mrs. Miller is still not sure what her dog went through.

Rita was just a common house dog. She swam over five miles and lived successfully on her own.

根据短文内容,回答下列问题。

1When did Mr. and Mrs. Miller start a sailing trip?

2What happened on the trip?

3Where was Rita found at last?

4How did Rita live during the four months?

5Did Rita remember the Millers when they came to pick her up?

【题目】根据短文内容,选择正确答案。
It was just three degrees above zero. "That's cold," thought Jane as she got ready to deliver her morning papers. Jane had 50 customers, and on cold mornings when she couldn't ride her bicycle, it took her more than an hour to make her rounds. As she collected her papers and put them into a big canvas bag, Jane regretted that she hadn't finished her math homework the night before. There was still time. She'd hurry with the papers and finish the math before breakfast.
Less than an hour later, Jane was nearly finished. She had only five customers to go. She could then head for home to complete her math while her room fixed breakfast. As she rounded the corner, she saw a car in the middle of the street. It was Mr. Zimmerman, the elder man, who walked with a walking stick. His car was out of gas. "I'd like to help Mr. Zimmerman," thought Jane, "but if I do, I won't have time to do my homework." She hated to think what Mr. Roberts would say if she hadn't completed her papers.
"It's his own fault for running out of gas," Jane talked to herself. "The station is only a half mile down the street. Surely Mr. Zimmerman can walk that far, even on a cold morning like this — can't he?" As she walked down the street, Jane wondered what to do.

According to a new Ministry of Education (教育部) survey, student safety has become a big problem. Nearly 50 percent of students say they are worried about robbery on the way to and from school. Now in many big cities in China, some school has taught an unusual lesson: self– protection. Students like this lesson as there are no exams or boring classes. And they can learn how to save lives and know how to stop danger before it really happens.
Chen Haoyu, a teacher at Beijing No.25 Middle School and a self–protection expert, gives young students advice on how to deal with danger.

If it is raining hard and there is lightning

When there is a fire
Get away as fast as you can. Put wet things on your body and try and find an exit. Do not take the lift!

【题目】 In an ancient country there were two great carpenters(木匠), Andy and John.

One day, their king wanted to know who was better so he had a match for them two. During the three days, the one who carved(雕刻)the more lovely mouse would be the National First Carpenter.
