My soccer coach retired in last week. I wanted to do anything special for him at his retirement party. My mum makes the better biscuits in the world, so I decide to ask her for help. Mum taught me some basic step of baking. I insisted on doing most of the baking myself. I thought the biscuits were really well. My only mistake was that I dropped some on the floor after I was packing them up.
At a party, my coach, with a biscuit in his mouth, asked surprisingly who made them and joked, “I might have to retire again next year get some more of these biscuits.”
My favorite picture at the party is of my coach and me enjoy the biscuits with happy laughter!

The Cuban iguana is a species of lizard(蜥蜴) of the iguana family. It is the largest of the West Indian rock iguanas, one of the most endangered groups of lizards. This species with red eyes and a thick tail is one of the largest lizards in the Caribbean.
The Cuban iguana is primarily herbivorous; 95% of its diet consists of the leaves, flowers and fruits from as many as 30 plant species, including the seaside rock bush and various grasses. However, Cuban iguanas occasionally consume animal matter, and individuals have been observed eating the dead flesh of birds, fish and crabs. The researchers wrote that quite a few people on Isla Magueyes could have caused this incident.
The Cuban iguana is distributed throughout the rocky southern coastal areas of mainland Cuba and its surrounding islands with a wild population booming on Isla Magueyes, Puerto Rico. It is also found on the Cayman Islands of Little Cayman and Cayman Brac, where a separate subspecies occurs. Females guard their nest sites and often nest in sites half destroyed by Cuban crocodiles. To avoid the attack from them, the Cuban iguana often makes its home within or near prickly-pear cacti(仙人掌).
In general the species is in decline, more quickly on the mainland than on the outlying islands. One of the reasons for their decline is habitat destruction caused by the over consuming of farm animals, housing development, and the building of tourist resorts on the beaches where the animals prefer to build their nests. Although the wild population is in decline, the numbers of iguanas have been sharply increased as a result of captive-breeding(圈养)and other conservation programs.
1.The underlined word "herbivorous" (Paragraph 2) probably means .
A. dangerous B. gentle
C. plant-eating D. flesh-eating
2.Why does the Cuban iguana build its nest near prickly-pear cacti?
A. To keep itself cool.
B. To get the food easily.
C. To stay away from people.
D. To avoid crocodiles' attack.
3.How many reasons are mentioned for the habitat destruction?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
4.What's the author's purpose of writing the text?
A. To give us a brief introduction to the Cuban iguana.
B. To show he is concerned about the Cuban iguana.
C. To explain reasons for the Cuban iguana's decline.
D. To draw people's attention to the endangered Cuban iguana.

No one knows exactly how many disabled people there are in the world,but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.
In the United Kingdom,about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people:as we get older,many of us will become less mobile,hard of hearing or have falling eyesight.
Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities.Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases.The longer time goes on,the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents.Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people’s attitude towards them.
Disabled people face many physical barriers.Next time you go shopping or to work or to visit friends,imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or onto buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through,so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability,not their disability,which counts.
1.The key word in Paragraph 4 is_______.
A. disability B. ignorance
C. prejudice D. Barriers
2.The last word of the passage “counts” most probably means_______.
A. being most important B. being considered
C. being included D. being numbered
3.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Even the able-bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older.
B. There are about 10 percent disabled persons in the UK.
C. The whole society should pay attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people.
D. There no longer exists prejudice against the disabled.
4.It can be concluded from the passage that_______.
A. we should try our best to prevent disablement
B. both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down
C. we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled
D. the able-bodied people will never fully understand the disabled

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。
Last Sunday I made a visit to some new neighbors down the block.No specific in mind, just an opportunity to sit at the kitchen table, have some tea and chat.As I did so, it occurred to me how rare the Sunday visit has become.
When I was a kid in New Jersey of the 1960s, Sunday visits were routine.Most stores were closed, almost nobody worked, and the highways, as a result, were not desperate steeplechases(障碍赛跑)they have become today.My family normally traveled eight city blocks to the home of my grandmother, where adults would sit on the front porch and chat while we children played hide-and-seek.
The Sunday visit was something to desire strongly.It was the repetition to church, our reward for an hour of devotion, an opportunity to take advantage of the fact that Dad was not at work, we were not in school, and there was no housework that couldn’t wait until Monday.Sunday was, indeed, different from the other days of the week, because everyone seemed to be on the same schedule, which means that there was one day when everyone seemed to have time for everybody else.
Sunday as a day of rest is, or was, so deeply rooted in the culture that it’s surprising to find that, in a short span of time, it has almost entirely lost this association.In my childhood, it was assumed that everyone would either be home or visiting someone else’s home on Sunday.But now the question is, “What do you plan to DO this Sunday?” The answer can range from going to the mall, to participating in a road race, to Montreal for lunch.If one were to respond, “I’m making a Sunday visit to family,” such an answer would feel strange, which sounds like an echo from another era.
I suppose I should be grateful to live in Maine, a state of small towns, abundant land and tight relationships.Even though folks work as hard here as they do anywhere else, the state’s powerfully rural feature still keeps at least remnants(残余部分)of the moral of yesterday’s America, where people had to depend on one another in the face of economic vagaries(反复无常的情况)and a challenging environment.
1.The writer’s general impression of the Sunday in the past was a day when__.
A.everyone was paying a visit to some relatives far away
B.everyone seemed to be free for others
C.Dad was not at work while Mom was busy cleaning the house
D.nearly every adult would go to church and children weren’t at school
2.In the fourth paragraph, the writer compares the response “I’m making a Sunday visit to family” to an echo from another era because_____.
A.people nowadays prefer staying at home on Sunday
B.such answers are rarely heard in our modern society
C.people in the city dislike being disturbed on Sunday
D.visiting someone on Sunday was routine in the past
3.From the last paragraph we may infer that_____.
A.people in Maine suffer more from economic depression and the changed environment
B.people in Maine have abandoned their tradition and lived an absolutely new life
C.land in Maine is short, thus the relationship between people is tense
D.people in Maine tend to help each other out of necessity
4.What’s the main idea of the passage?
A.Doing many activities on Sunday is beneficial.
B.We should often travel a long distance to visit some friends and relatives.
C.Nowadays, Sunday has almost lost its association as a day of rest.
D.We should abandon some old tradition.
