I decided to take a walk even though I didnt know where I would go. The most extraordinary thing happened when I was out on this walk. I saw an old man sitting on a chair. He was a seller of second-hand shoes. I thought he looked at least 70 years old. He seemed so tired and nobody bought his shoes. I wanted to give him something but I hadnt brought anything with me. Then, a little girl came toward him. I heard the child say, “Grandpa, may I polish(擦亮) your shoes?” That old man took pity on her and he gave her a shoe to polish. The girl said, “I polish the shoe because I need money to buy my little brother a new school uniform.” I heard this and tears filled my eyes. The old man answered, “Oh, little girl. Just stop doing this. Come with me and I will buy you a uniform.” Then they walked to a market and I followed close behind them. There he bought her a uniform. The girl said, “Thank you so much for doing this. May God bless you.” Then she left, leaving the old man smiling there. The old man walked away from the market, but I stopped him. I whispered in his ear, “You are a hero! Thank you for your kindness!” As I walked away, I glanced back and I could see him still smiling.My own sadness had disappeared and was chased away by the light of this kind act. I began realizing that I have a lot to be thankful for. I hope, some day, I can show my appreciation of what I have by following the example of the old man who only had a little, but shared it happily with someone who had nothing.24.

Over the years I have had all kinds of neighbors, ones that were enjoyable and others that were to be avoided at all costs.One of the most important things in being a good neighbor is to respect a persons privacy(隐私).When someone new moves into the neighborhood it is a good idea to watch them to see how friendly you should be. If you go rushing over as soon as they move in they may think you are going to be one of those neighbors that come over at all times of the day, not respecting their privacy.It is a good idea always to be friendly to everyone in the neighborhood. This can not only put you on good terms with them, but will also be a form of protection for your family and home. If you wave as they drive by or offer a friendly hello while they are out in their yard this shows that you respect them. If you are friendly to them they are much more likely to watch out for any wrong doings going on around your home while you are out and let you know if anything happens.Another way of being a good neighbor is to be helpful in times of need. If you see that they are in need of a helping hand doing something or in times of a disaster, it is good to offer your help. Even though you have never really talked to the people down the street, they are willing to take the time to help out a neighbor in need.In conclusion, if you respect a persons privacy, treat them kindly and be helpful when you see they are in need, you will be a great neighbor and anyone would be happy to have you next door!28. When someone moves into your neighborhood you should_.A. visit them frequentlyB. know their privacyC. respect them alwaysD. avoid meeting them29. If you are always friendly to your neighbors you can_.A. keep your family safeB. often visit their yardC. make friends with themD. have your own privacy 30. In the opinion of the author, neighbors should always be_.A. helpful, strong and kindB. respectful, friendly and helpfulC. honest, active and friendlyD. polite, honest and kind31. The author develops the passage based on his_.A. wide knowledgeB. scientific experimentsC. careful researchD. real experiences D Plays are an important part of British culture. The West End theatre district in London is the best place to watch a professional play, but acting also takes place in every school and village hall and the country.There are over 2,500 non-professional drama groups in the UK today and they are an active part of community life. People from all walks of life take on acting roles in addition to their regular jobs. They do it for fun, for the love of acting and as a way to meet new people.Not everyone in a drama club is a skilled actor, but enthusiasm(热情) is considered to be more important than talent. Friends, family members and neighbors enjoy getting together to watch the final performance and tell the people they know to “break a leg(祝演出成功)”. Its a great way of bringing people together. Also, in many rural（乡村的） parts of Britain, the non-professional theatre is the only chance that people have to see plays for miles around.Many people get a taste of acting at school. Every school puts on a play at least once per year, usually at Christmas, and parents love coming to watch their children perform. Ask many British persons and theyre sure to have happy memories of being in their schools Christmas play, whether they played the role of Mary or Joseph or perhaps even a sheep or a monkey.Another Christmas theatre tradition is the pantomime（童话剧）. Pantomimes are a type of the musical comedy for families. The audience is encouraged to take part in the performance singing along with music and shouting at the actors. Pantomimes are really fun to watch, especially for children.British people love going to the theatre, professional or not, and many of them also enjoy performing. If you have the chance, go and see a play in the UK.32. In the writers opinion, what is more important for an actor in a drama club?A. talent. B. support from family. C. professional training. D. enthusiasm.33. According to the article, what is special about pantomimes?A. All the performers are professional child actors.B. The audience is allowed to play some small roles in them.C. The audience is encouraged to take part in the performances.D. The musical comedy is always about family life.34. From the passage, we know that most Britain people _.A.greatly enjoy acting roles in plays.B.have good memories of their schools.C.have no interest in plays.D.watch plays only in the West End theatre district in London.35. What can we infer from the passage?A. Everyone in a drama must be a skilled actor. B. Plays are very popular among British people.C. In Britain, acting can only take place in theatres.D. The writer doesnt think the pantomime is good for children to watch.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。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。Sleep is vital to your physical and mental health.
