    Air is a colorless, tasteless and invisible（看不见的）gas that is around us. An “empty” drinking glass and an “empty” room, in fact, are not really empty. Each is filled with air. When the glass is filled with water, the water pushes the air out of the glass.
    Air, as a gas, has no definite shape, but because it is matter, it takes up space and it has weight. It is easy to prove that air is something that takes up space. Stuff a piece of dry cloth（布）into the bottom of a glass so that it will not fall out when the glass is turned upside down. Push the upside down glass, holding straight up and down, into a jar of water till the glass is completely covered. When the glass is taken out of the water, the cloth is still dry. The air inside the glass shows that it takes up space and keeps the water from coming in.
    小题1:Since air is matter, it has ________.
    A．room , and weight as wellB．both room and shape
    C．either room or weightD．neither shape nor weight
    小题2:The word “Stuff” means ______ in Chinese.
    A．撕B．盖C．取掉D．塞
    小题3:The writer tells that the experiment（实验）___________.
    A．is carried out in the spaceB．must be done in the lab
    C．is made in the roomD．can only be done in the open air

    小题1:A
    小题2:D
    小题3:C

    试题分析：这篇短文介绍了空气也要占据空间，并有一定的重量，并用一个实验说明了这个说法。
    小题1:根据Air, as a gas, has no definite shape, but because it is matter, it takes up space and it has weight.及上文描述可知空气也要占据空间，也有重量，故选A。
    小题2:联系下文so that it will not fall out when the glass is turned upside down.以便这个玻璃杯倒过来时，它不至于落下来。可知是塞住的意思。故选D。
    小题3:短文并没有直接指出这个实验是在哪里进行的，但是分析四个选项可知不是必须在太空，实验室进行，也不只是在户外才可以进行，故选C，在室内进行。为最佳答案。
    点评：本文中长句较多，一时很难读懂句子含义，注意多读几遍，不要强求非得理解一词一句的含义，能把握文章大意就行。然后带着问题阅读短文，一般就能顺利找出答题依据。对于不能直接找到根据的问题注意联系上下文，根据短文中心总结出正确答案。

    Mrs Elise was my teacher in the fourth grade. One day at lunch time, I was getting ready to eat my tuna fish (金枪鱼) sandwich and suddenly Mrs Elise asked me if she could buy my sandwich from me. She explained that I could use the money to buy a hot hunch from the cafeteria (食堂).
    I was excited. I never bought my lunch at the cafeteria. It was too expensive for my family, and I always carried my lunch and took the bag back home to use it again the next day. So you could understand my happiness when I had the chance to buy a hot lunch.
    When we finished lunch that day, Mrs Elise took me aside and said she wanted to explain why she had bought my sandwich. I really didn’t care why, but it gave me a few minutes of her special attention, so I was quiet as she explained. She told me that she was a Catholic(天主教徒) and Catholics didn’t eat red meat on Fridays, they ate fish on Fridays.
    Oh, I couldn’t wait to get home and tell my mother that from then on I wanted a tuna fish sandwich on Fridays. After my mother understood why, she gladly made tuna fish sandwiches for me on Fridays. She even made it with brown bread because she knew Mrs Elise liked brown bread. From then on, every Friday I could get in line with other kids for a hot lunch. I didn’t care how many of the kids complained about cafeteria food. It tasted divine to me!
    I realize now that Mrs Elise could have made herself tuna fish sandwiches on Fridays. But she bought mine because she saw a little girl who was excited at the simple act of having a hot lunch.
    I will never forget Mrs Elise for her pity for me and generosity (慷慨) and what I should do is to follow her example.

    Why do plants grow in some places and not in others? Why does some land have so much growing on it, while other land has almost no plants growing on it at all?
    To grow, plants need several things. One is warmth. In very cold places almost nothing grows. Plants also need water. In very dry parts of the earth only a few unusual plants can grow. That’s why dry deserts everywhere are almost not covered by trees or grass.
    Plants must also have a place in which to put down their roots and grow. They find it difficult to grow on hard land. The town is built on hard land. The plants here have only the soil found between the cracks of the stones to grow in.
    Another thing plants must have before they can grow is food.
    What will happen if we try to make things grow on the sandy beach? A few plants, such as beach grass, will grow in sand, but most plants won’t. Even if the weather is warm enough and we water the plants each day, many of them will die because the sand on this beach has almost no food for plants.
    小题1:What things don’t most plants need to grow well according to the passage?
    A．Warmth.              B．Food.                C．Sandy beach
    小题2:What does the underlined word “cracks” mean in the passage?
    A．表面             B．缝隙                 C．夹层
    小题3:From the passage, we know that it is        for plants to grow in dry places.
    A．difficult                B．impossible           C．important
    小题4:The reason why most plants can’t grow on the sandy beach is that       .
    A．there isn’t enough sunlight
    B．there is too much water
    C．it has little food for plants
    小题5:The passage can most probably be found in a        book.
    A．science              B．history              C．travel

    Have you ever wondered?
    1.      Why do airplanes take longer to fly west than east?
    It can take five hours to go west-east from New York (NY) to London but seven hours to travel east-west from London to NY. The reason for the difference is an atmospheric phenomenon (大气现象) known as the jet stream (气流). The jet stream is a very high altitude (=" above" sea level) wind which always blows from the west to the east across the Atlantic. So the planes moving at a constant air speed go faster from the west to the east when they are moving with the wind than in the opposite.
    2.      What would happen if the gravity on Earth was suddenly turned off?
    Supposing we could magically turn off gravity. Would buildings and other structures（建筑物）float away? What happened would depend on (依靠) how strongly the things were attached (吸附) to the earth. The earth is moving at quite a speed, moving at over a thousand miles per hour. If you turn something around your head on a string, it goes around in a circle until you let go of the string. Then it flies off in a straight line. ‘Turning off’ gravity would be like letting go of the string. Things not attached to the earth would fly off in a straight line. People in buildings would suddenly shoot upwards at a great speed until they hit the ceiling (=" top" surface of a room). Most things outside would fly off into space.
    小题1:What information can we get from the first passage?
    A．It is the jet stream that affects how fast airplanes fly.
    B．Planes go slower when they are moving with the wind.
    C．It takes more time to fly from NY to London than from London to NY.
    D．The jet stream always blows from the east to the west across the Atlantic.
    小题2:The underlined word “shoot” in the 2nd paragraph means “_________”.
    A．send for B．move quicklyC．come out D．grow quickly
    小题3:It can be known that without gravity _________.
    A．buildings and other structures would float away
    B．trees and buildings would not so easily fly off
    C．something around your head would not float away
    D．everything outside buildings would fly off into space
    小题4:Where can we read this passage?
    A．In a research paper. B．In a short story.
    C．In a travel magazine.D．In a student’s book
