Her life was so difficult that she decided to escape. She travelled for 145 kilometres, and finally crossed into the North. Harriet Tubman became a free woman.But Harriet Tubman could not leave her family enslaved in the South. So she travelled back to help them escape as well.

Harriet Tubman also fought bravely in the American Civil War and in 1865 slavery was not allowed in the US.Harriet Tubman died in 1913.

Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap(包装).On September 11, 1958, Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying.I promised you a gift, and here it is. What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it.I told it stories. I told it over and over how much I loved it!One morning, however, I found its bed empty. My doll was gone! I cried for it. Mum wept and told me that the poor little thing had been sent to a hospital. It had a fever.For several days, I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as hopeless, pitiful, and dying, which sounded ominous.Christmas was coming. Dont expect any presents this year. Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. If your baby brother lives, thatll be Christmas enough. As he spoke, his eyes filled with tears. Id never seen him cry before.The phone rang early on Christmas morning. Dad jumped out of bed to answer it. From my bedroom I heard him say. What? Hes all right? He hung up and shouted upstairs. The hospital said we can bring Richard home! Thank God. I heard Mum cry.From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs.My sacks still hung there flat. But I knew they were not empty; they were filled with love!8.

But in the earthquake capitals of the worldJapan, Los Angeles, Turkeyrats will soon be mans new best friends.What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they cant get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rats brain gives a signal (信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rats brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. Christian Linster at Cornell University, New York, says, “Robots noses dont work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark. They are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they dont need electricity!The “rat project” is not finished, but Julie Ryan of International Rescue Corps in Scotland says, “It would be fantastic. A rat could get into spaces we couldnt get to, and a rat would get out if it wasnt safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course)12. In the world earthquake capitals, rats will become mans best friends because they can _.A. take the place of mans rescue jobsB. find the position of people alive who are trapped in buildingsC. serve as food for people alive who are trapped in buildingsD. get into small spaces13. From the third paragraph we know the rescuers can judge a person who is alive by _.A. the noise made by the rat B. the rats unusual behaviourC. the signal sent by the radio on the rats backD. the smell given off by the person14. In doing rescue jobs, _.A. rats smell better than dogsB. dogs dont need to be trained to smell peopleC. robots sense of smell can be affected by other smells aroundD. rats can see in the dark and are bigger than dogs15. Rats have all the following advantages except that _.A. they are more fantastic than other animalsB. they are less expensive to train than dogsC. they dont need electricityD. they are small and can get into small places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。How to keep a travel journalAre you looking for fresh travel journal writing ideas? Read on these tips to get some ideas for creating a journal you will cherish.Just do it. A travel journal is not scholarly (学文精深的). 16 There are no rules, and no one is grading what you write. The best way to get going is to get started.Pay attention. Your journal doesnt have to only be about where you go each day. 17 Did you meet someone new? Where and when? What did you talk about? Recording observations will make your travel journal colorful.Try to write something every day. Make a habit of writing something every day or at least every other day. 18 If you let more time pass, it can be different to remember what you did three or four days ago, especially the brief impressions of those experiences. Your journal will be richer if you keep up with it. 19 If writing paragraphs doesnt fit either you or your trip, try something else. You can make lists, such as your favorite restaurants for dinner or the best places to watch the sunset. Try sketching(素描)too and dont be discouraged if you are not sure as an artist. Sometimes sketching is really the best way to record an experience that would be lost when described with text. As the saying goes, a picture is worth one thousand words.Take the bad along with the good. For all the great travel experiences we enjoy, there are days when things go wrong. 20 Though they are not highlights(亮点) of a trip, they are part of your unique travel story and often are as much fun to tell about in the future as the ones that go as planned.A. Write at a comfortable place.B. Use different ways to keep a journal.C. Be sure that the size of the notebook is right for you.D. Then you can catch your thoughts while they are fresh.E. It is about your experiences- written by you, and for yourself.F. Write about these experiences too for they are just as memorable.G. Stop for a moment, look around and ask yourself some questions. 第二部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。When I was in seventh grade, I was a candy striper(志愿当护士助手的小姑娘)at a local hospital in my town.
