I was very sad. I hated my life and I hated myself. I felt so alone and I didnt think there was anyone I could turn to. Later on I realized I needed 33 and turned to my family, my school and friends, and I had to go to the hospital for the next three and a half years. When I was 17, I became much better. And I 34 I should do something for the young people in my area. There might be some others suffering trouble. With this idea I created a peer(同伴，同辈) support group, named Evolve. The first meeting was 35 . I was so nervous that I wasnt sure I was even capable. I ended up running out of the room in tears. Luckily my friend encouraged me and said that my 36 would grow, and it did. We have different people who 37 along, each of them amazing, talented and 38 . However, all of us that come along struggle with something, whether its exam pressure, mental health problems, or something else. When we get together, we play games, talk about the good and the bad 39 of life, and give each other advice. My favourite part is talking about one thing we are looking forward to. We went from being a couple of people, to a hundred people. Without Evolve, I wouldnt be so confident. I wouldnt have 40 some of the amazing friendships I have, and I wouldnt be where I am today.

The Chinese New Year festival lasts for 15 days. At midnight on New Years Eve, every door and window in the house are opened to let the old year leave. On the last day we have the Lantern Festival. We carry lanterns at night. There is the Lion Dance. Two people dance under the bright clothes. This brings good luck. People wear red clothes to bring a happy future.

Books are about 8 dollars per copy if the book is paperback. You can get the same book for 2 dollars on a kindle. We should all begin to use e-books to save trees and save money. If we do this, it will not be hard to save trees and reading will be easier. Save the trees. It is said that a whole football field worth of forest or trees is cut down in less than a minute. If we change many of our books into electronic books, imagine how many trees can we save? 65% of readers say NO! E-books are cold. Which would you prefer? Would you like to eat with your friends behind the screen through a web camera, or face to face in a restaurant? Digital channels, including e-books, have their uses. But people will always need and value the real and the touchable books. E-books are not always green. When people say e-books are “environmentally friendly”. Its not really, besides the fact that it cuts down paper use, still it requires battery(电池). And where do we get that from? We mostly get electricity from coal or other non-renewable resources. As a result, were using more electricity in fact. Many people love to hold and enjoy the paper books. E-books are super convenient, but that is one of their only few advantages. When you are holding a paper book, it is always much easier to get the information. Paper books can be taken anywhere, and do not rely on power. You can read them in more places. Its much more natural and after having read so many books, both paper and digital I can tell you now, our bodies and minds prefer natural and physical things such as paper books. In my opinion, e-books and paper books have both advantages and disadvantages. Nobody can tell if e-books can totally replace paper books. It depends on readers choices and preferences. 44. Which of the following is true according to the writer? A. 35% of readers say e-books cant replace paper books now. B. 65% of readers think e-books are “environmentally friendly”. C. The writer thinks our bodies and minds like e-books better. D. Some people feel it easier to get information from paper books. 45. Why do some readers think e-books are not always green? A. Because they dont use other resources. B. Because they cant replace paper books. 5 C. Because they require battery. D. Because they help save paper. 46. What is the main idea of the passage? A. E-books can totally replace paper books in the future. B. Paper books are much more important than e-books. C. Both e-books and paper books have their advantages. D. Readers all decide e-books can replace paper books. C A 13-year-old Inventor Finds Fame Guled Adan Abdi, from the northern town of Buhodle, taught himself how to make plastic toys from bits of useless objects, and then worked out how to motorise(给装上发动机) them by studying real cars. “I started making toys when I was younger,” he told the BBC Somali(索马里的) Service. “I used to play with them without any motor. But later I said to myself: Why dont you make them into a moving machine? So I looked at the cars in the town and invented my toys with the same design.” So far, he has constructed four electronic toys, including a truck and a plane, mainly using plastic from old cooking oil containers(容器). He has also invented a fan that can be used as a light at night. Guled lives at home with his mother and older brother and sister, and goes to a school in Buhodle that is supported by the community. But he has missed out on a lot of his education and is only in the third year at primary school a class usually for eight year olds. “I have never seen anyone make such things and I was not trained by anyone.” To get the toys to move, he connects them to a battery-powered control box. The toys are fashioned from rubbish, so the only things he has to pay for are the batteries. It is his teacher, Asha Ahmed Omar, who has been the real driving force behind Guled, encouraging him to continue with his experimenting and buying him the first batteries. Now his fame has spread beyond Buhodle with the help of his teacher, and he was asked to travel 270 km to Garowe, to show his inventions to Puntland President Ali at state house. President Ali promised that the Puntland government would now supply his education. But for Guled there is another problem getting money to buy new parts for his toys, which he would like to be able to sell. Eyeing his future, the teenager said his ambitions(雄心) are not limited to models. “I would like to gradually learn how to become a producer of cars.” 6 47. The second paragraph mainly talks about _. A. Guleds strong interest in plastic toys at an early age B. the reason why Guled started to make his toys moving C. the way that Guled played with his toy car with a motor D. how Guled taught himself to make plastic toys from rubbish 48. The underlined word “constructed” in the third paragraph means _. A. bought B. drew C. studied D. made 49. Guleds story _. A. tells us never too late to invent things B. helps us to know how to invent things C. encourages teenagers to be creative D. tells teenagers to work with teachers D In the sci-fi film Sunshine, an astronaut named Mace must leave his spacecraft without a protective suit for 15 seconds. He makes it through with the damage as a result of being very cold. Have you ever wondered what might happen to your body in space without a spacesuit? On Earth, our atmosphere (air) protects us from the Suns harmful UV rays, controls temperatures and also keeps a nice atmospheric pressure. The vacuum(真空) of space, however, is full of dangers. One of the serious dangers Mace might face in outer space is ebullism (液体沸腾). The pressure in the vacuum of space is so low that the boiling point of the fluids(液体) in your body drops below the bodys normal temperature (37), which results in the formation of gas bubbles in your fluids that can really make you feel aching. Another serious danger is the lack of oxygen. After around 15 seconds, your body would have used up all of the oxygen in your body and youd lose consciousness(意识). Some of you may be thinking “But I can hold my breath for minutes!” The situation in space is a little different than here on Earth because of the lack of outside pressure, and if you held your breath in space without a suit youd be in a big trouble. This is because any remaining air would rapidly enlarge, breaking the lungs. After losing consciousness, youll probably last a couple of minutes at most before you die. Of course, theres all that awful UV from the Sun which is going to give you serious sunburn, likely leading to cancer. Is it the damage for coldness a reasonable result of Sunshines suitless spacewalk? Actually, its extremely cold in space, but astronauts wouldnt immediately freeze because heat leaves the body very slowly in a vacuum. Therefore, the cold wouldnt cause Mace too much harm in just 15 seconds, even if he faced the very lowest temperatures in space. The more likely damage would be caused from the enlargement and breaking of the skins small blood vessels(血管). 7 Anyway, obviously its never a good idea to go into space without some kind of protection. But dont lose hope because you are probably saved with timely help before you die, so keep up. 50. What is the best title of the passage? A. Keep Alive in Space B. Walking Freely in Space C. Without a Spacesuit D. Coldness Damage in Space 51. What does the writer think of the air or the vacuum? A. The air supplies living protection and temperature control. B. The air brings people serious problems sometimes on Earth. C. The vacuum helps astronauts walking and living in space. D. The pressure of vacuum in space increases the boiling point. 52. Where can we read the passage? A. In a magazine. B. In a movie poster. C. In a how-to book. D. In a diary. 53. What is the purpose of writing this passage？ A. To encourage readers to watch the film Sunshine. B. To show the readers many serious air problems. C. To discuss the causes of cancer from the sunburn. D. To explain the unreasonable damage in the film. 八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共 10 分，每小题 2 分） The most influential Chinese writers Do you enjoy reading? I do.
