13.Daryl set out to watch an overnight sky-watching event on 18th November 2007.He lived on Bainbridge Island,Washington and left home to attend the event to be held 180miles to the Southeast of Trout Lake.He wanted to come back immediately in order not to miss the football game the next day.
As fate would have it,he never reached Trout Lake.He was stuck in a heavy autumn snowstorm.As he was driving along the forest service road,which was thankfully in good condition,he realized that snow was fast piling up.The tires of  his jeep Cherokee sank into soft,deep snow 35miles from his destination.
Luckily,Daryl had filled his jeep with full gallon water and had kept a Wal-Mart sleeping bag.He had a jacket and some food for the night.He settled down in his jeep confident in his hope that someone would find him and save him the next day.
But,no one came and he continued to survive drinking very little water.He had to try hard to keep brushing off the snow on the roof and door of his jeep,or it would be impossible to be found.In order to do this,he slept and woke up in fits and starts (间歇地).He knew that leaving his vehicle in search of help was not a good idea.He managed till day 8,after which he became completely dehydrated(脱水的).Daryl had the presence of mind to fight his hopelessness and reach out for snow but knew that eating snow would lower body temperature after which the body had to spend more energy to keep itself warm.
He finally decided to go in search of water.He discovered water,drank to his heart's content and filled himself with renewed energy.It was not until 14days of struggle for survival that Daryl was discovered by a local snowmobile.Fortunately,he neither suffered from hypothermia or frostbite(体温过低或冻疮)even though he lost ten pounds.
Daryl's survival is amazing,He kept his brain active and continuously surveyed his environment,looking for solutions.Most importantly,he did not panic.

64.How did Daryl feel at first when he was caught in the snow?A
A.Hopeful.    B.Frightened.  
C.Worried.    D.Helpless.
65.Why did Daryl keep brushing off the snow on his jeep's roof and door?D
A.To keep himself warm.  
B.To keep it in good condition.
C.To stop himself falling asleep.   
D.To make it easily discovered.
66.What is the biggest trouble Daryl had to fight against while waiting for help?B
A.Coldness.               B.Lack of water.  
C.The fear of death.      D.Lack of sleep.
67.What message does the passage want to show?D
A.The power of nature is too great at times.
B.One should be prepared for the worst.
C.It is important to leam about first aid.
D.One should be brave in face of natural disasters.

3.As a boy growing up in India,I had longed to travel abroad.I used to listen to the stories my father would tell me about his stay in Canada and tours to Europe in the 1970s,with great interest.
My big moment finally came in the summer of 1998when I was able to accompany my parents to Europe,where my father was to attend a meeting.We planned to travel to Belgium,Netherlands and West Germany.
I have clear memories even today of going to Mumbai airport at night all excited about finally going abroad.I had heard several great things about Lufthansa till then but now I finally got to experience them first hand,during the flight to Frankfurt.We flew business class and even today I can remember the excellent service by the Lufthansa crew (工作人员).The flight was really smooth and thoroughly enjoyable,even for someone like me,who is especially afraid of flying.
After spending almost two weeks in Europe,we took the Lufthansa airport express from Dusseldorf to Frankfurt airport,for our return flight.What a journey that was!All along the Rhine (莱茵河),it was simply an unforgettable experience.I had a  sombre feeling on the flight back to Mumbai as it marked the end of a wonderful vacation,but the Lufthansa crew members were able to change it into a most enjoyable experience yet again,with the quality of their service.
Being the first airline to take me abroad,Lufthansa will always hold a special place in my heart.Even today,I continue to enjoy flights on Lufthansa and simply cannot dream of choosing any other airline.Flying,in general,for me,has always been a terrible and painful experience.Flying on Lufthansa,however,is something I always have and always will look forward to.

8.Dear Daisy,
Phew!I'm so glad that day is over.I was so worried all summer that my first day at my new school would be terrible.
I'm really tired,but my first day at school went well and I feel much better now.
First of all,we had to meet outside the school building.I was very nervous because my primary school only had 300 pupils but in the secondary school there are about 1,300.What a difference!The older pupils are really big.I felt so small waiting there in front of the school.
The other problem was that I didn't know anyone.My family moved over the summer holidays,because of Dad's new job.So now I have to try to make some new friends.Standing in front of the school this morning,I wanted to be back at my old school with my old friends.
The head teacher came out and told us to go into the school hall.Then he called our names out to tell us which class we were in.My class teacher is called Mrs.Black.She took us to our classroom.It's on the 5th floor and …guess what?…We aren't allowed to use the lift.I couldn't believe it.
When we were walking up all the stairs I started talking to another boy who didn't know anyone.He said his family had moved from Hong Kong over the summer.He seemed really nice so we sat together when we got to our classroom,out of breath!He said his English was very poor but I thought it was really good.
We spent all morning with Mrs.Black looking at our timetables.Everyone in the school has a different timetable-can you believe it?Half of the school is learning Spanish as a second language and the other half learns French.I'm in the Spanish group,which sounds like fun.I'm worried that I'll forget my timetable and go to the wrong room!How will anyone help me if nobody else has the same timetable as me?
Lunchtime was OK.After lunch we started lessons.I had maths,which was complicated and difficult and then history,where we started to learn about ancient Greece.That looks interesting.I have to do some homework tonight to find out how the ancient Greek people lived.
So far so good.I'm quite looking forward to tomorrow,even though I've got science.I hate science!
Jason
