    Recently a Beijing father sent in a question at an Interact forum(论坛)asking what“PK”meant．

        “My family has been watching the‘Super Girl’singing competition TV programme．My little daughter asked me what’PK’meant，but I had no idea，”explained the puzzled father．

        To a lot of Chinese young people who have been playing games online，it is impossible not to know this term．In such Internet games，“PK”is short for“Player Kill”，in which two players fight until one ends the life of the other．

        In the case of the“Super Girl”singing competition．“PK”was used to refer to the stage where two singers have to compete with each other for only one chance to go up in competition ranking．

        Like this father，Chinese teachers at high schools have also been finding their students’compositions using Internet jargons which are difficult to understand．A high school teacher from Tianjin asked her students to write compositions with simple language，but they came up with a lot of Internet jargons  that she didn’t understand．

        “My‘GG’came back this summer from college．He told me I’ve grown up to be a‘PLMM’．I loved to‘FB’with him together；he always took me to the‘KPM’，”went one composition．

        “GG”means Ge Ge(Chinese pinyin for brother)．“PLMM”refers to Piao Liang Mei Mei(beautiful girl)．“FB”means Fu Bai(corruption)．“KPM”is short for KF．Pizza Hut and McDonald’s．

        Some specialists welcome Internet jargons as a new development in language．

        If you do not even know what a Kong Long(dinosaur，referring to an ugly looking female)ora Qing wa (frog，referring to an ugly looking male)is，you will possibly be regarded as a CaiNiao!

    1.By writing the article，the writer tries to         ．

    A．explain some Internet language

    B．suggest common Internet language

    C．laugh at the Beijing father

    D．draw our attention to Internet language

    2.What does the writer think about the term“PK”?                       

    A．Fathers can’t possibly know it．

    B．The daughter should understand it．

    C．Online game players may know it．

    D．“Super Girl”shouldn’t have used it．

    3.The examples of the Beijing father and the Tianjin teacher are used to show that Internet jargons          ．

    A．are used not only online

    B．can be understood very well

    C．are welcomed by all the people

    D．cause trouble to our mother tongue

    4.The underlined word“jargons”means“        ”in Chinese．

    A．行话       B．粗口       C．歌词        D．趋势

    三、阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

    第一节（共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分）

        Grandma Moses is among the most famous twentieth-century painters of the United States, yet she did not start painting until she was in her late seventies. As she once said of herself: “I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me.” No one could have had a more productive old age.

        She was born Anna Mary Robertson on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls. At twelve she left home and was in domestic(家庭的) service until, at twenty-seven, she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers. They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge. She had ten children, of whom five survived; her husband died in 1927.

        Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery(刺绣) pictures as a hobby, but only changed to oils in old age because her hands had become too stiff(硬的) to sew and she wanted to keep busy and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at a local market and were soon noticed by a businessman who bought everything she painted. Three of the pictures exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, and in 1940 she had her first exhibition in New York. Between the 1930s and her death she produced some 2,000 pictures: detailed and lively portrayals(描绘) of the country life she had known for so long, with a wonderful sense of colour and form. “I think really hard till I think of something really pretty, and then I paint it.” she said.

    36. According to the passage, Grandma Moses began to paint because she wanted to______.

       A. make herself beautiful               B. keep active

       C. earn more money                   D. become famous

    37. The underlined word “survived” means_____ .

       A. graduated from college               B. examined the condition of the house

       C. lived longer than the other children      D. gave up themselves to the police

    38. From Grandma Moses’ description of herself in the first paragraph, it can be inferred that she wa__________.

       A. independent     B. pretty     C. rich     D. nervous

    39. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

       A. Grandma Moses: Her Life and Pictures.    B. The Children of Grandma Moses.

       C. Grandma Moses: Her Best Exhibition.    D. Grandma Moses and Other Older Artists.
