Jack is 11, and he is one year older than me. Alice and my sister Nancy are 8 years old.At weekends, Nancy and I like to go to play with Alice and Jack. Both Jack and I really enjoy playing computer games. Sometimes the girls join us, but the games they enjoy are different from the ones we like.There is a big park near our house. Sometimes, when the weather is fine, the four of us will go for bike rides there. We often stop at the huge playground to have some fun. Jack and I like to play basketball, but the girls prefer to sing and dance.Our families often have dinner together. On some days, they come over to our house and on other days, we go over to theirs.

The writer thinks its _ to be friends with the new neighbours.A. boring B. great C. difficult D. safeBDo you know that in some parts of the world, people build temporary(暂时的) hotels made of snow and blocks(大块) of ice? These are known as ice hotels.Unlike usual hotels, all the rooms in the ice hotels are made of ice. In some ice hotels, even the glasses for drinks are made of ice blocks. So they only serve cold drinks. Also, hot food is not served in the ice hotels, but guests can eat hot food at places nearby.To keep warm, guests sleep in comfortable sleeping bags on ice blocks that are covered by mattresses(床垫) and reindeer skins(驯鹿皮).There are some places in the ice hotels that are heated, such as the bathrooms. This is because, even though it is not as cold in the ice hotels as it is outdoors(在户外), indoor temperatures are still very low.Perhaps the most interesting thing about the ice hotels is that they are rebuilt every year. They can be used only during the winter months. The ice hotels melt(融化) away when spring arrives. The ice blocks used to build these hotels are from nearby rivers. So, when the ice hotels melt away, they melt back into the rivers.76. According to the passage, ice hotels _.A. are found everywhere B. do business in summerC. are made of glass D. are made of snow and ice77. Which of the following about the ice hotels is true?A. They are just like usual hotels. B. The glasses are made of wood.C. They serve cold drinks. D. The rooms are made of bamboo.78. You cant see _ in the ice hotels. A. hot foodB. reindeer skinsC. sleeping bagsD. mattresses79. Why are bathrooms heated in the ice hotels?A. Guests want to eat in them. B. Indoor temperatures are very low.C. Guests ask the hotels to do that. D. It is as cold indoors as it is outdoors.CMany people travel to different places in the world by air. Usually it takes a long time, perhaps half a day, for passengers to stay in the plane. So airlines(航空公司) offer passengers food. But it is common that they feel bad about food taste. Do you agree?To solve this problem, airlines try hard to improve their food. They would like to do so because they dont want to lose customers.However, according to scientific research, part of the reason why plane food tastes bad is that at high altitude(海拔) we can not taste things as well as we do on the ground. Also scientists have found that our noses become very dry even before a plane takes off. As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure(气压) reduces one third of the sensibility(感觉) of our taste buds(味蕾). So our taste buds become senseless. The sad fact, however, is that our noses dont know it.All of these help explain why food on the plane tastes so bad. They also help explain why airlines choose to offer passengers salty and spicy(辛辣的) food. Without doing so, the food would be tasteless.Now there are many researches on this. According to one of them, some volunteers are asked to lie with their feet higher than their heads for weeks. And scientists write down their feelings about food taste.Though scientists try their best, it is not as easy as they thought. Because they cant deal with the special environment successfully, such as the change in air pressure, making food taste good is still hard for them.80. In Paragraph 2, “this problem” means _.A. passengers stay long in the plane B. food on the plane tastes badC. passengers have no food to eatD. food on the plane is expensive81. What do airlines do to solve this problem?A. Get more customers. B. Offer more food.C. Improve their food. D. Reduce the ticket price.82. As the plane moves up, the change in air pressure reduces _ of the sensibility of our taste buds.A. half B. one third C. one fourth D. one fifth83. Why do scientists feel it hard to make food on the plane taste good?A. The volunteers dont know about food taste.B. The volunteers dont understand them.C. They cant find enough volunteers.D. They cant deal with the special environment successfully.84. What is the best title of the passage?A. Taste of Airplane Food B. Airplane TravelC. Scientific Research on Noses D. The Change in Air PressureDWhen was the last time you saw three men running down a forest trail(小径) in the rain wearing flip-flops(拖鞋)? Thats what my friend Brandon, Josh and I were doing last autumn. We were looking for a waterfall(瀑布). We didnt have much time to get to the waterfall and back, so we were running. We were wearing flip-flops to prevent our shoes getting dirty.It was raining, but lightly. It kept us cool as we climbed over giant stones and through a shallow(浅的) stream. We followed red arrows(箭头) and crossed that stream several times, walking on toward the promised waterfall. Time was not on our side, however, and we were forced to turn around. As we started back, we looked at the shallow stream we had just crossed. Where did this rushing river come from? That was when we realized a flash flood was around!In the few minutes the water rose at a fast speed. Now there were no big stones to be seen-only what looked like lumps(隆起) covered with rushing water. We had no choice but to move our way back carefully in the rushing water -in flip-flops. We had crossed the stream not once or twice, but six times in search of a waterfall that we never even reached!With most of the crossings, we needed each others help if we didnt want to be washed away by water. Wet all over, we felt relaxed after we made the last crossing.My dad always told me to keep off a river when travelling in the rain. Josh said as we hurried back down the path.Why didnt you tell us that earlier? I laughed.Would it have made a difference? came the reply.He had a point.85. Why were there no big stones to be seen in the stream when they came back?A. The big stones were moved away by someone else.B. They were running too fast to notice the big stones.C. The big stones were covered with rushing water.D. The big stones were washed away by rushing water.86. Why didnt they find the waterfall in the end?A. Because they were s
