C
TWENTY-FIVE years ago director Stephen Spielberg captured the hearts of Western audiences with his family classic．E．T．Now his Hong Kong director Stephen Chow is trying to do the same trick in China．
Chow's latest movie CJ7(《长江七号》)，in cinemas now，is a heart-warming story about a poor migrant worker(外来务工者) and his son．When a strange alien enters their lives，father and son learn a lesson about the value of family．Chow hopes his movie will help to make family films more popular in China．
Family films have been the main part of the Hollywood market for the last 40 years．They have given audiences movies like E．T．, Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park．However, there are few of these movies in China, where expensive history films are more popular．
A family film is not simply a children's movie．It is a film that is not only suitable for children, but appeals to the whole family．
According to Raymound Zhou，a famous film critic，these films are rare in China because“very few families go to the cinema together”．Because of this，there is little demand for movies that appeal to the whole family．
However, in the West，it is common for the family to sit down and watch a movie together．Tim Bridges, from London，says：“I love it at Christmas when I sit down and watch a movie with my family．”
All family films contain similar messages about being honest、remaining positive and learning there is more to life than money．According to the American movie reviewer，Dave Johnson, this is because “When parents watch a movie，they want their children to be learning good values”．
Just like when the alien in Spielberg's E．T．phones home to make contact with his family, Chow will hope Chinese audiences are tuned in and ready to receive his family movie message．
63．Which of the following can replace the underlined part in the last paragraph?
A．understand what others are thinking B．make telephones
C．go to the cinema D．sing songs
64．What is the family film，according to the passage?
A．A kind of film that is about history．
B．A kind of film in which the characters are animals．
C．A kind of film that is meant for both children and adults
D．A kind of film that is about families
65．What is implied but not stated directly in the passage?
A．Families in China should go to the cinema at Christmas．
B．It's good for children to watch family films．
C．Chinese families don't like family films．
D．The movie CJ7 has nothing in common with E．T．
66．It can be inferred that in the future，_______．
A．Chinese families will go to the cinema together
B．there may be more family films in China

My first most vivid and broad impression of the identity of things seems to me to have been gained on a memorable raw afternoon towards evening near my parents’ tomb in the churchyard.
“Hold your noise!” came a terrible voice, as a man started up from among the tombs at the side of the church. “Keep still, you little devil(小鬼), or I’ll cut your throat!”
A fearful man, all in coarse grey, with a great iron on his leg. A man with no hat, and with broken shoes, and with an old rag tied round his head. He seized me by the chin(下巴).
“Tell us your name!” said the man. “Quick!”
“Pip, sir.”
“Show us where you live,” said the man. “Point out the place!”
I pointed to where our village lay, on the flat in-shore among the alder-trees and pollards, a mile or more from the church.
The man, after looking at me for a moment, turned me upside down, and emptied my pockets. There was nothing in them but a piece of bread.
“You young dog,” said the man, licking his lips, “what fat cheeks you ha’ got. Darn me if I couldn’t eat em, and if I han’t half a mind to’t!”
I earnestly expressed my hope that he wouldn’t, and held tighter to the tombstone on which he had put me; partly, to keep myself upon it; partly, to keep myself from crying.
“Now then lookee here!” said the man. “Where’s your mother?”
“There, sir!” said I.
He started, made a short run, and stopped and looked over his shoulder.
“There, sir!” I timidly explained, pointed to the tombstone. “That’s my mother.”
“Oh!” said he, coming back. “And is that your father alonger your mother?”
“Yes, sir,” said I; “him too; late of this parish(教区).”
1. The “voice” in the second paragraph came from______.
A. the church B. the man C. the bank D. the boy
2.The boy probably lived _____.
A. in the parish B. in the valley C. in the city D. in the country

Several times my daughter had telephoned to say, “Mum, you must come and see the daffodils （水仙花）before they are over.” I wanted to go, but it was a two-hour drive from Lake Arrowhead. “I will go next Tuesday,” I promised, a little unwillingly, on her third call.
The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy. Still, I had promised, and so I drove there. When I finally walked into Carolyn’s house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren, I said, “Forget the daffodils, Carolyn! The road is invisible （看不见的）in the cloud and fog, and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see!”
My daughter smiled calmly and said, “We drive in this weather all the time, Mum. You will never forgive yourself if you miss this experience.”
After about twenty minutes, we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church. On the far side of the church, I saw a hand-lettered sign that read “Daffodil Garden”.
We got out of the car and each took a child’s hand, and I followed Carolyn down the path. Then, we turned a corner of the path, and I looked up and gasped. Before me lay the most beautiful sight! There were five acres of flowers! “But who has done this?” I asked Carolyn. “It’s just one woman,” Carolyn answered. “That’s her home,” Carolyn pointed to a well-kept A-frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory. We walked up to the house. On the patio （庭院）, we saw a poster. “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking” was the headline.
The first answer was a simple one. “50,000 bulbs （鳞茎）,” it read. The second answer was, “One at a time, by one woman.” The third answer was, “Began in 1958.”
I thought of this woman whom I had never met, who, more than fifty years before, had begun -- one bulb at a time -- to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top.
1.The author didn’t go to see the daffodils at first because _________.
A. she was not interested in them
B. they were growing on the mountain top
C. the weather was not good enough
D. it was not easy for her to drive there
2.What do we know about the woman living in the A-frame house?
A. She must be out of mind.
B. She acted as a gardener there.
C. It took her great determination to grow the daffodils.
D. She was poor and made her living by selling daffodils.
3.What could the author probably learn from this experience?
A. Nothing is too difficult if you put your heart into it.
B. We must put the interests of others above our own.
C. We can change the world by growing flowers.
D. It’s never too late to learn.
4. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. An Unforgettable Experience. B. Beautiful Daffodils.
C. One Bulb at a Time. D. I Love Daffodils.

In a surprising discovery about where higher life can survive, scientists have found a shrimp —— like creature and a jellyfish swimming beneath an Antarctic ice sheet.
About 180 meters below the ice where no light can get through, scientists had thought nothing much more than a few microbes (微生物) could exist.
That’s why a NASA team was surprised when they lowered a video camera to get the first long look at the underbelly of an ice sheet in Antarctica. A curious shrimp – like creature came swimming by and then parked itself on the camera’s cable. Scientists also pulled up a tentacle (触须) they believe came from a jellyfish.
“We were operating on the presumption that nothing’s there.” Said NASA ice scientist Robert Bindschadler. “It was a shrimp you’d enjoy having on your plate.”
“We were just gaga (狂热的) over it,” he said of the 7.5cm long, orange creature starring in their two – minute video. Technically, it’s not a shrimp. It’s a Lyssianasid amphipod, which is distantly related to the shrimp.
The video is likely to inspire experts to rethink what they know about life in harsh environments. And it has scientists thinking that if shrimp – like creatures can live below 180 meters of Antarctic ice in freezing dark water, what about other cold places? What about Europa, a frozen moon of Jupiter?
Cynan Ellis – Evans, a scientist of the British Antarctic Survey called the finding fascinating. He said it was possible the creatures swam in from far away and don’t live there permanently.
But Kim, who is a co-author of the study, doubts it. “The site in West Antarctica is at least 19 km from open seas. Bindschadler drilled a 20 cm – wide hole and was looking at a tiny amount of water. That means it’s unlikely that two creatures swam from great distances and were captured randomly in that small of an area,” she said.
Yet scientist were puzzled at what the food source would be for these creatures. While some microbes can make their own food out of chemicals in the ocean, complex life like the shrimp can’t, Kim said.
“So how do they survive? That’s the key question.” Kim Sai.
“It’s pretty amazing when you find a huge puzzle like that on a planet where we thought we know everything.” Kim said.
1. What does the underlined word “harsh” probably mean?
A. cold B. loud C. cruel D. ugly
2. According to Kim, the shrimp – like creature .
A. swam great distances to Antarctic B. has always lived in the region
C. gradually evolved from shrimps D. has nothing in common with shrimps
3. The finding is significant in that .
A. it marks NASA’S first Antarctic biological study
B. it proves there is marine life in the Antarctic
C. it could inspire further study of life in harsh environments
D. it shows that Lyssianasid amphipod is closely related to shrimps
4. Which of the following statements about the discovery is FALSE?
A. Complex life usually lives on other forms of life.
B. Scientists saw two creatures in the two – minute video.
C. It is possible for creatures to live 180 meters below the ice though there is no light.
D. Scientists captured the shrimp – like creature in a camera by drilling a hole through the ice.
