    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

    With all the wars, fighting and sadness in the world today, it's not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives. Putting a smile on someone's face when you know they are feeling down in the dumps (处于沮丧中), as the saying goes, makes me feel good and warms my heart.

    How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife, husband, child, co-worker neighbor, close friend, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your comer store? I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don't know the person I'm joking around with. My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is common courtesy (礼貌) to speak to others that are around you.

    I know of a few people that don’t have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say. Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face. They don't get the joke that makes others laugh. I am busting a gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space. How can people not get a really funny joke?

    Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control. Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy. There is too much sadness in this present world. It drives people crazy. We all need to find a way to bypass the sadness and bring a little light into our lives. So, I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together.

    1.The author answers the question in the second paragraph with ________.

    A. facts and descriptions B. examples and conclusion

    C. evidence and argument D. stories and persuasion

    2.In writing the passage, the author mainly intends to ________.

    A. encourage people to be humorous in daily life

    B. talk about his own understanding of humor

    C. introduce a practical way to get through daily life

    D. convince people of the power of being optimistic about life

    3.What is the author' s attitude towards the present world?

    A. Positive. B. Indifferent.

    C. Satisfied. D. Critical.

    I believe that my country，Poland，is a perfect example for a place where food is particularly important. When we were little children, we began to understand how much a loaf of bread meant to our parents—to some it might sound silly but for me the custom of kissing bread before you started cutting it was simply amazing. It’s not so common nowadays to treat food that way，since you hardly ever bake your own bread. Besides, everyone would call you crazy if you tried to kiss every bread roll before you ate them! But though we no longer make our food from scratch (起点), some customs have been kept—that’s why I feel so sorry every time I have to throw any food away—even though I no longer live with my parents and nobody would blame me for this anymore!

    Many people of our nation are still working as farmers, eating what they grow and harvest and therefore enjoying everything more. It’s widely known that you value more anything that needs your effort in the first place. In most homes in Poland, especially those of farmers, the whole family would try and have their meals together—extremely difficult now, but so rewarding! You can share other members’ troubles and successes, give your children some attention, or just sit down for a moment, instead of rushing through life aimlessly. Furthermore, your body，and stomach in particular will be very grateful for such a time!

    In Poland, a wedding，Christmas or even a birthday is celebrated with a great meal. Women in the house get together and cook ,sometimes for a few days before the event，and the extremely good or unusual food will be remembered and widely talked about.

    You cannot over-value the importance of food in the country. What’s more, almost everyone in Poland will be as interested in the topic as I am.

    1.When the writer was a child, he/she _______.

    A. found people were crazy about bread

    B. began to realize the importance of food

    C. thought that cutting bread was amazing

    D. learned people hardly baked their own bread

    2.The writer feels very sorry when he/she has to throw away any food because___________.

    A. he/she makes food from scratch

    B. his/her parents would blame him/her

    C. some customs still have effect on him/her

    D. many people are still working hard as farmers

    3.From the text, we can learn that, in Poland, ________.

    A. most meals can be interesting topics for a long time

    B. the whole family often have meals together nowadays

    C. it’s common for women to get together to cook for a few days

    D. family members can know more about each other by having meals together

    Plants are very important living things. Life could not go on if there were no plants. This is because plants can make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight. Animals get their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore animals and man need plants in order to live. This is why we find that there are so many plants around us.

    If you look carefully at the plants around you, you will find that there are two kinds of plants: flowering plants and non-flowering plants. Flowering plants can make seed. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed, some have two, three or four, and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores (胚芽). Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.

    1.The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______.

    A. plants are important for life

    B. plants cannot grow without air

    C. there are many plants in the world

    D. we can’t live without water

    2.Plants can make food from _______.

    A. flower, water and air B. water, sunlight and air

    C. air, water and soil D. air, sun and light

    3.What can we infer from the passage?

    A. Of all living things animals are most important.

    B. Spores are seeds.

    C. All fruits of flowering plants have seeds.

    D. Without plants, man will die out.

    4.This passage may be taken from ______.

    A. a medicine book B. a novel

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

    Long, long ago, there were a lot of donkeys. The donkeys worked hard every day. They had no time to play or to relax, but they never felt appreciated for the work they did.

    One day two donkeys got bored. They wanted to live a comfortable life. So the donkeys went to see a wise old man. They told him their problem. The wise old man agreed that they worked too hard, and he wanted to help the donkeys. “I have an idea，” he said.

    “What is your idea？” asked the donkeys.

    “I will paint you and no one will know you are donkeys，” said the man.

    The man went off to find some paint and he returned in just a few minutes. He had two pots of paint. One pot was filled with white paint, and the other black paint.

    The old man first painted them white, and then painted black stripes (条纹) over the white paint. When he finished, the donkeys did not look at all like donkeys. “You no longer look like donkeys，” the old man said. “Everyone will be fooled. I will call you something else, zebras.”

    The zebras went to a field to eat grass. Now they did not have to work.

    Soon, other donkeys saw the zebras. They asked the zebras where they came from. When the zebras told the donkeys their secret, the donkeys all rushed to see the old man.

    “Make us into zebras, too，” they pleaded. So the wise old man painted more donkeys. As he did, more and more donkeys came.

    The old man could not paint fast enough. Soon the donkeys became impatient. They began to kick about, and they knocked over the paint pots.

    There was no more paint. The painted donkeys ran off to become zebras. The unpainted donkeys, because of their impatience, had to return to work.

    This is why it is important to be patient.

    1.The two donkeys went to see a wise old man in order to ________.

    A. tell him their problem B. ask him for help

    C. change into zebras D. get some grass

    2.When the two donkeys returned, why didn't they have to work?

    A. Because they didn't eat enough grass.

    B. Because they didn't want to work.

    C. Because no one knew they were donkeys.

    D. Because they were no longer donkeys.

    3.What does the underlined word “pleaded” mean?

    A. Advised. B. Ordered.

    C. Agreed. D. Begged.

    4.Many donkeys were not painted by the old man because ________.

    A. no more paint was left

    B. all the paint was used up

    C. they couldn't wait any longer

    D. he was too tired to paint

    阅读理解。

    At thirteen, I was diagnosed（诊所） with kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks, I could not.

    In my first literature class, Mrs. Smith asked us to read a story and then write on it, all within 45 minutes. I raised my hand right away and said,“Mrs.Smith, you see, the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.”

    She glanced down at me through her glasses, “you are no different from your classmates, young man.”

    I tried, but I didn’t finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.

    In the quietness of my bedroom, the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person, Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn’t get much education. But Louis didn’t give up. Instead, he invented a reading system of raised dots（点）, which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.

    Wasn’t I the “blind” in my class, being made to learn like the “sighted” students? My thoughts spilled out and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed, I was no different from others; Ijust needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way out of his problems, why should I ever give up?

    I didn’t expect anything when I handled in my paper to Mrs.Smith, so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day—with an“A” on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words:“See what you can do when you keep trying?”

    1.The author didn’t finish the reading in class because ________.

    A. He was new to the class.

    B. He was tried of literature.

    C. He had an attention disorder.

    D. He wanted to take the task home.

    2.What do we know about Louis Braille from the passage?

    A. He had good sight. B. He made a great invention.

    C. He gave up reading. D. He learned a lot from school.

    3.What was Mrs. Smith’s attitude to the author at the end of the story?

    A. Angry. B. Impatient.

    C. Sympathetic. D. Encouraging.

    4.What is the main idea of the passage?

    A. The disabled should be treated with respect.

    B. A teacher can open up a new world to students.

    C. One can find his way out of difficulties with efforts.

    D. Everyone needs a hand when faced with challenges.
