    Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches along the highway I travel daily to work.
    There are some particular blue flowers that have always caught my eye. I’ve noticed that they bloom only in the morning hours and the afternoon sun is too warm for them. Every day for about two weeks, I see those beautiful flowers.
    This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I’ve often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Every day I drove past the flowers thinking, “I’ll stop on my way home and dig them.” “Gee, I don’t want to get my good clothes dirty…” Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a folding shovel（铲子）one year in my car to be used for that expressed purpose.
    One day on my way home from work, I was shocked to see that the highway department had destroyed the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, “Way to go, you waited too long. You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring.” A week ago we were shocked and saddened to learn that my oldest sister has a terminal brain tumor（肿瘤）. She is 20 years older than me and unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven’t been as close as we all would have liked. I couldn’t help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us. 
    And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I’ll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.
    小题1: Why did those flowers the writer saw only bloom in the morning?
    A．Because it was hot in the afternoon.
    B．Because someone picked them away.
    C．Because someone took them into houses.
    D．Because the writer passed them in the morning.
    小题2: Which of the following statements is right according to the passage?
    A．The writer’s sister died of lung tumor.
    B．The writer was regretful when she heard her sister’s death.
    C．The writer planned to dig the flowers to give them to her husband.
    D．The writer’s husband planned to plant some flowers in the garden.
    小题3: The writer wrote the passage to tell us ________.
    A．to enjoy what we have now
    B．to value now and not to lose chances
    C．to protect the beautiful flowers we see
    D．to love those who are your close relatives
    ABB
    小题1:通过I’ve noticed that they bloom only in the morning hours and the afternoon sun is too warm for them.这句话可知,他们不耐高温,故选A.小题2:四个选项分别表示作者的姐姐死于肺肿瘤、当听到姐姐的死讯时，她很后悔、作者计划把这些话挖给他的丈夫和作者的丈夫计划在花园里种些花，通过阅读短文可以选项C最符合文意。小题3:通过文章最后一句话，如果我再看见这些花，我发誓我会停下来，并把它们移植到我的花园里，可知选项B最符合题意，珍惜现在不要失去机会。

    Today it is found that school students hardly pay much attention to sports. Is it because they aren’t interested in sports? No. They often say they have other more important things to do.
    What are these important things? Examinations! Students have to spend much time on all kinds of examinations at school. So many of them almost become bookworms (书呆子). Books stop them from doing sports. Because of the pressure from their parents and teachers, the students have to work harder and spend most of their time on books. As for (就……而言) the students, they want to get good results so that they can improve their studies. So it is necessary（必要） for them to give all of their free time to their studies and stop their school sports
    In fact, education can’t go without physical (身体的) exercises, because a quick mind hardly goes along with a weak body. If you don’t have a strong body, you can never get anything, let alone (更不用说) a great success in your life.

    A. work hard all day and all night
    B have all kinds of sports after studying
    C. do not have sports
    D. spend the free time on the studies and give up (放弃)the sports.
    5. which sentence is true?

    It’s important to prepare(准备) for earthquakes because you don’t know where you will be when an earthquake happens. Earthquakes may happen at any time, so prepare some things for your home, office and car.
    1. Clothes.
    If you live in a cold place, you must keep warm. You might not have heat after an earthquake.
    Think about your warm clothes.
    2.Flashlights(手电筒) and spare batteries.
    Keep a flashlight beside you bed, at your office and in your car. Do not use matches(火柴) after an earthquake until you are sure that no gas leaks(气体泄漏).
    Prepare a radio and some spare batteries. Most telephones will be out of order, so radios will be your best source of information(信息来源).
    3. Food and medicine.
    It’s always a wonderful idea to keep some food on hand. For example, some biscuits, some canned food, milk and some other drinks for at least 72 hours. You’d better get some necessary medicine for your family.
    4.Water.
    A person needs at least 1/2 gallon(加仑) of water daily just for drinking. Store at least 1 gallon of water for a person every day and be prepared for 72 hours. It is suggested that you buy bottled water. Do not open the bottle until you need it. Also, do check the “use by”date.
    小题1:Why should people prepare themselves for an earthquake?

    What do you do if you're stranded（处于困境的）on a lonely island? Surely you need to find a way to get in touch with the outside world. Your best chance of doing this is to draw the attention of a passing plane.
    　　Body signals（信号）
    　　Pilots from different countries understand body signals if they have the correct training. When you wave your arms up and down in a straight line, it means "yes". When you point downwards and swing your arm from side to side, it means "no". If you want the pilot to know that it's safe to land, push your hands out in front of you and bend（弯曲）your knees. If you want to say that it's not safe to land, put your arms in the air and move them to one side.
    　　Smoke signals
    　　The smoke from a fire can be seen from far away, so it's a good way to draw attention. If the weather is dry, it isn't hard to start a fire. Remember, however, that fires can be very dangerous if they get out of control. Never light a fire unless you're sure that it can't spread. If the ground is dark, light smoke can be seen more easily. Green grass and leaves produce light smoke.
    　　Ground-to-air signals
    　　It's a good idea to build some signals, too. Use large pieces of wood to make the symbols(标记). If you can't find any wood, use earth. Some useful symbols are:
    　　F "I need food and water."
    　　II "I need medicine."
    　　I "I am badly hurt."
    　　X" I am unable to move from here."
    　　Pilots' replies
    　　If the pilot lowers the plane's wings from side to side, this means "message received and understood". (At night, the pilot flashes the plane's green lights.) If the pilots flies the plane in a clockwise circle, this means "message received but not understood".(At night, the pilot flashes the plane's red lights.)
    However, there is no signal which means "message not received". Why not?
    小题1: Which picture means "it's not safe land"?

    　
    小题2: What can we learn from the passage?
    A．Swinging your arm from side to side means "yes".
    B．If the ground is dark, light smoke can't be seen.
    C．If you need some medicine, make a symbol "II".
    D．The pilots make replies with a blue light at night.
    　　小题3: What is the passage mainly about?
    A．The explanation of building signals on an island.
    B．The importance of making signals on an island.
    C．Ways of sending out signals on a lonely island.
    D．Ways of receiving signals from a lonely island

    Tokyo, March 11, 2011

    People left their houses near Sendai, northern Japan on March 11th.
    A man and child look out over destroyed homes after a tsunami(海啸) and earthquake.
    Nuclear crises(核危机) in Japan’s power plants(核电站).

    Could it have been worse?
    More than a minute before the earth under their feet began to shake, many millions of Japanese people got cell phone alerts; TV networks interrupted (打断,中断) their broadcasts and turned to the latest announcement of Japanese government; loud speakers started suddenly to warn people of the coming tsunami; bullet trains came to a stop. The earthquake on March 11 was the first test of the nation’s earthquake early-warning technology (地震预警技术). However, in the fight of Man vs Nature, Nature won again. Hundreds, if not thousands of people, lost their lives in Japan. Scientists believe it is the fifth-strongest quake in the world since 1900 and the most powerful on record ever to hit Japan.
    Lin tells of calm survivors
    When the office began to shake, his friends were calm and still working. But the shaking became stronger. People shouted at him: “Run out of the building, now!” This was Lin Jia’s first experience of an earthquake. Lin, 26, has been in Japan for three months, working as a software engineer in Shinagawa, Tokyo. Lin stayed with others in a bus station all afternoon. Buildings were shaken by a series(系列) of aftershocks. He was nervous, but the people around him were so calm and organized that he gradually (逐渐) calmed down.
