    9．Think about the different ways that people use the wind．You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat．Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources（来源），as well as one of the oldest．Evidence shows that windmills（风车） began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC．They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s，when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power．
    For many centuries，people used windmills to grind（磨碎） wheat into flour or pump water from deep underground．When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s，people living in remote（偏远的） areas began to use them to produce electricity．This allowed them to have electric lights and radio．However，by the 1940s when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States，windmills were rarely used．
    During the 1970s，people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity．People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever．Then，wind was rediscovered，though it means higher costs．Today，there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind．
    32．From the text we know that windmillsC．
    A．were invented by European armies
    B．have a history of more than 2，800years
    C．used to supply power to radio in remote areas
    D．have rarely been used since electricity was discovered
    33．What was a new use for wind power in the late 19th century？B
    A．Sailing a boat．
    B．Producing electricity．
    C．Grinding wheat into flour．
    D．Pumping water from underground．
    34．One of the reasons wind was rediscovered in the 1970s is thatA．
    A．wind power is cleaner
    B．it is one of the oldest power sources  
    C．it was cheaper to create energy from wind
    D．the supply of coal and gas failed to meet needs
    35．What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows？D
    A．The advantages of wind power．
    B．The design of wind power plants．
    C．The worldwide movement to save energy．
    D．The global trend（趋势） towards producing power from wind．

    9．Dear Alcohol，
    You've been around forever．I can remember all the pain you've caused for me．
    Do you remember the night you almost took my father's life？I do．He loves you．Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me．He's addicted to you，to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them．You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street，crashing into two other cars．He wasn't the only one hurt by you that night．
    Do you remember the night of my first high school party？You were there．My friends were intrigued by you．They treated you as if they were never going to see you again，drinking all of you that they could．I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen completely．"I'm so embarrassed，"they said a s I held their hair back so that they could vomit （呕吐）．"I'm sorry，"they said when I called taxies for them，walking them out and paying the driver in advance．"This won't happen again，"they said as they were sent to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped．Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you．
    Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons？Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car？He died the next morning too．His sister walked home from her dance lesson，and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio．She didn't realize her brother was in the midst of it all．She never saw him again．And it's all your fault．
    I wish you'd walk out of my life forever．I don't want anything to do with you．Look at all the pain you've caused．Sure，you've made people happy too from time to time．But the damage you've caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable．Stop luring （引诱） in the people I love．Stop hurting me，please．
    Sincerely，
    Anonymous

    16．Last year，A Bite of China，made by CCTV's Documentary Channel （纪录片频道），sparked discussion not only on Chinese food，but also on locally made documentary programs．
    When you think of documentaries，you may think of them as long，boring programs．But documentaries can be wonderful and bring stories from the real world into our homes．With fascinating footage（影片片段） and stories，documentaries encourage us to think about interesting issues we wouldn't necessarily know about．
    So，what makes a good documentary，and what should we pay attention to when we watch one？Here，we offer a few easy strategies to help you get the most out of watching documentaries．
    Pay attention to the themes
    While watching a documentary，keep your eyes and ears peeled for the themes people talk about and what ideas they focus on．Is it meant to be informative or raise a certain emotional response？
    Think critically
    Listen to what the people in the documentary are saying and ask yourself the following questions：If you were debating with someone or introducing a new concept，would you say the things the people in the documentary are saying？Do the arguments make sense？
    Check the sources
    If you're sitting at the computer and can't think of anything to do，why not look up the points the documentary made and see if they are accurate？You could even read more about what is presented in the documentary．
    Who are the creators？
    The creators or financial backers of a film will usually be involved with how the subject matter is presented．For instance，as the documentary 2016：Obama's America was directed in large part by a conservative writer，it's not surprising that it's critical of President Obama from the beginning．

    29．Which of the following is the most proper to describe documentaries？A
    A．non-fictional     
    B．controversial     
    C．subjective     
    D．thoughtful
    30．The passage is mainly written toB．
    A．inform us of factors of good documentaries．
    B．help us enjoy documentaries better．
    C．introduce ways of making documentaries．
    D．help us figure out themes of documentaries．
    31．Why is 2016：Obama's America mentioned in the article？D
    A．Because the author dislikes Obama．
    B．Because it is directed by a writer．
    C．Because it is quite popular in China．
    D．Because it is a persuasive example．
    32．According to the passage，C．
    A．it is always difficult to get the themes of documentaries．
    B．financial backers often appear in documentaries．
    C．it's better to think twice about what is in documentaries．
    D．many points of documentaries are not accurate．

    13．It was midday when I got the call that my grandfather was not well and he was quickly getting worse．My family did not know how long he would stay in the world．I knew I had to get to the hospital to tell him how much I loved him．As I drove to the hospital，I pictured him before I got to tell him how much he meant to me．Trying to fight back the tears，I wanted to stay calm when I saw him．
    When I got to the hospital，I hurriedly looked for his hospital room．I found him in a semi-conscious state（半清醒状态）．On my knees，I said sofly，"Hello，Grandpa．"
    Still feeling shy，I decided not to leave his bedside without letting him know．While I asked about how he was，he told me，"I'll be fine，Henry．"although we both knew that wasn't true．Then he asked me with a smile how I was doing．
    Hearing what my grandpa said，I was much moved．I made the decision that I had to show my gratitude for him．As I found all the courage （勇气） I hadI hold his hand tightly．I cried out，"Grandpa．I just want to let you know how much I love you．I hope you already know that yet I just want to make sure．"By this time，tears were rolling down my face．All those years of love that I had shut and not let him know，became free．
    Smilingly，he said，"I know．Thank you for telling me that．All I have on this planet is my family and my love for them．If there is anything I could ask of you，I want you to be good to your family，your mother，your father，and your broter．That's all I want of you．"
    What I learned that day changed my whole life．
    From then on，I began telling people how much I love them，care for them，and respect them．I get in touch with，for example，my babysitter，my barber，to show my appreciation．I go down into the city once a week and serve pizza to the homeless．I wake up every morning and list everything I'm thankful to in my life．
    9．The author got the news of Grandpa's illnessB．
    A．in the morning   
    B．at noon    
    C．in the evening   
    D．at midnight
    10．The author didn't tell Grandpa his love becauseA to say love to Grandpa before．
    A．he was too shy     
    B．he was too frightened
    C．he was too busy

    14．Chinese are very generous （慷慨） when it comes to educating their children．Not caring about the money，parents often send their children to the best schools or even abroad to England，the United States or Australia．They also want their children to take extra-course activities where they will either learn a musical instrument or ballet（芭蕾舞），or other classes that will give them a head start in life．The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is，the better it is．So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money on education．Even poor couples will buy a computer for their son or daughter．
    However，what most parents fail to see is that the best early education they can give their children is usually very cheap．
    Parents can see that their children's skills vary，skilled in some areas while poor in others．What most parents fail to realize though，is that today's children lack self-respect and self-confidence （自信）．
    The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple-choice tests and how to study well，but parents are not teaching them the most important skills they need to be confident，happy and clever．
    Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking，sewing and doing other housework．
    Teaching a child to cook will improve many of the skills that he will need later in life．Cooking demands patience and time．It is an enjoyable but difficult experience．A good cook always tries to improve his cooking，so he will learn to work hard and gradually finish his job successfully．His result，a well-cooked dinner，will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence．
    Some old machines，such as a broken radio or TV set that you give your child to play with will make him curious and arouse（唤起） his interest．He will spend hours looking at them，trying to fix them； your child might become an engineer when he grows up．These activities are not only teaching a child to read a book，but rather to think，to use his mind．And that is more important．
    12．Parents in China，according to this passage，C．
    A．are too strict with their children
    B．are too rich to educate their children
