【题目】阅读理解
Light travels at a speed which is about a million times faster than the speed of sound. In one second, light travels about 300,000 km, but sound travels only 344m. You can get some idea of this difference by watching the start of a race. If you stand some distance away from the Starter, you can see smoke come from his gun before the sound reaches your ears.
This great speed of light produces some strange facts. Sunlight takes about 8 minutes to reach us. If you look at the light of the moon tonight, remember that the light rays (光线) left the moon 1.3 seconds before they reached you. The nearest star is so far away that the light which you can see from it tonight started to travel towards you four years ago at a speed of nearly 2 million km per minute. In some cases the light from one of tonight's stars started on its journey to you before you were born.
Thus, if we want to be honest, we cannot say “The stars are shinning tonight.” We have to say, “The stars look pretty. They were shining four years ago but their light has only just reached Earth.”
（1）Light speed is __________ sound speed.
A.as fast as
B.a million times slower than
C.about millions of times faster than
D.about a million times faster than
（2）If you stand 200 meters away from a man who is firing a gun to start a race, you will find out that __________.
A.you can hear the sound before you see the smoke
B.the sound does not travel as fast as light
C.the sound will reach you before the man fires
D.sound travels about a million times faster than light
（3）Sunlight obviously (显然的) __________ than the light of the moon.
A.has to travel a greater distance
B.moves less quickly
C.travels much more quickly
D.is less powerful
（4）The scientific way of saying “The stars are shining tonight” should be __________.
A.the stars have been shining all the time
B.the stars seen tonight will shine four years later
C.the stars were shining long ago but seen tonight
D.the starlight seen today could be sera four years ago

【题目】When Seattle-based poet Heather McHugh won $500,000 from the Mac Arthur Foundation, she didn’t buy a Maserati or fly to Paris. Instead, she put the money in the bank and continued teaching college courses and writing poetry. It wasn’t until about two years later, in 2011, that she finally figured out what to do with it.
She discovered there are millions of caregivers in the United States taking care of the chronically（长期地）ill or disabled. “It’s a heartbreaking contract of love,” she says. So in 2012, Heather formed Caregifted, a non-profit organization that offers a seven-day, all-expenses-paid vacation to Vancouver Island to people who have been caregivers for at least ten years.”It’s hard physical, psychological, and emotional work. “It’s clear they deserve and need a respite,” she says.
Tricia Eisner, a single mother of 19-year-old triplet（三胞胎中的一个）boys，two of them with severe illness, was one of the first caregivers to go on vacation, in 2013. When Tricia got a phone call saying Caregifted wanted to send her to Eastport，Maine，she “couldn’t believe” someone would pay for her to go on a vacation; disbelief gave way to concern about her sons. But after two days away, the worry was gone. n After being in Maine by myself, with nobody to take care of or think about except myself, I realized that rock was gone," says Tricia. She was afraid the heaviness would return when the week was over, but to her surprise, it hasn’t been back since.
Heather says, “Everybody needs restorative time. For some, it’s life-extending.” Tricia and the other guests aren’t the only ones to benefit from Caregifted ； Heather has too. “I thought I was the queen of love, being a poet, ” Heather says. “But I didn’t know a thing about love until I met these people.”
【1】Whom is Caregifted intended for?
A. The disabled. B. The kids.
C. The caregivers. D. The patients.
【2】What does the underlined word “respite” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. reward B. rest
C. job D. promotion
【3】How did Tricia feel after staying in Maine for two days?
A. Concerned. B. Relieved.
C. Excited. D. Doubtful.
【4】What does the last paragraph suggest?
A. People benefit when they give.
B. Poets are full of love and helpful.
C. Caregifted is life-extending.
D. Heather once lackedlove.

Last Saturday I went to the library as usually. At about noon, I was enjoying my reading near a lake while suddenly I hear someone crying for help. I went up to see what was happened. I was shocking to find a little child struggling in the water in the distance while many peoples were standing by without doing anything. Without any hesitation, I had pushed through the crowd as I took off my coat, but jumped into the water quickly. I managed to reach him and carried him back to safety. To his great relief, the kid was saved.
I am proud what I did. I hope everyone can give a hand when someone else is in need.

【题目】根据短文理解，选择正确答案。
Retirement (退休) should be time of joy and freedom. However, for some people retirement comes with feelings of depression (沮丧), which makes life difficult for them.
Retirement is a major life change. Even good changes usually involve some kinds of loss. When you retire, you find yourself lacking whatever working used to provide. That could include, for example, 1. knowing you're working for society, 2. getting admiration from your skills, 3. having “aha” moments when you solve problems, 4. having people to socialize with, and 5. simply having a place to go and a reason to get out of bed every day. For most people, there's a financial loss, too. Also, retirement age is a time when a lot of people have to deal with losing their parents or having serious health problems of their own.
Because of all these, retirees are more likely to get depressed.
Depression is very harmful. First, depression can make physical health problems worse. Second, it takes a toll on relationships, because it can make people angry. Third, it's hard to get much done when you're depressed.
What can we do to overcome (克服) the feelings of depression? First, do all the things that help depression in general: drink enough water, exercise, talk to friends, have a hobby, laugh, and spend time in nature. If you feel depressed more often than not, it's probably time to talk to a doctor about your feelings. Second, it's important to keep busy and get out of the house when you can. Make specific plans with friends. Take a class Volunteer. Or just make sure you start each day with some kind of goal. Third, try to focus on what you've gained by retiring. Think about what you may have now that you wished you had before you were able to retire. For example, days that are less stressful, a chance to rest and take better care of your body, more time for your family and yourself. To write, to start a hobby and to learn something new are all new possibilities. Finally, tell your story. You've lived a long time and you become an oral historian each time you talk with someone about your experiences. You can also write in a journal or make a video recording of your memories. Telling your stories can help you look back on your life and career with a sense of wholeness and achievements.

A.it makes people's relationships unusual
B.it makes people's relationships in peace
C.it makes people's relationships in danger
D.it makes people stay in touch with each other.
（4）What would be the best title for the passage?

【题目】根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Safety in the highway is not totally out of our hands. Here are four ways we can protect ourselves when we travel.
people in small cars are injured more often and more severely than people traveling in large cars. Factories of small cars are strengthening their products' safety, which helps. But the mix of large cars and small cars on the road is the main reason of the problem.
Being thrown into glass and mental cars parts, or being thrown from the car can really hurt or even kill you.
The safety belt's main purpose is to pull you back if your car has a sudden crash with another vehicle or object, or if it rolls over. A belt can reduce the chance of deadly injury by 45% and the chance of serious injury by 50%.
Air bags are important. More than half of all new cars sold have air bags. Air bags provide protection in frontal crashes—the type of crash that kills the most drivers—when they are also wearing safety belts. Most people are demanding air bags in the cars they buy. Effective as they are, they can't take the place of safety belts.
Drunk driving crashes are less likely to happen if you don't drink. Many people have realised that drunk driving can lead to death and injury, prison time and other results. There are movements to strengthen penalties(处罚) for drinking and driving.
A. How to drive safely?
B. You are safer in a large car
C. How to protect ourselves in the highway?
D. Air bags are not installed in all cars.
E. That's why safety belts should be worn.
F. Drunk driving is the most serious problem.
G. But the protection provided by air bags is limited in side or rear crashes.
