Mrs. Smiths dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house.Considering that there was no better way. Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it：“Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently：“Take this to the butcher (*person whose job is selling meat) and hes going to give you your lunch today.”Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butchers. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the ladys handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up at once.At noon, the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After reading it. he gave it half a pound of meat once more.The next day, the dog came again exactly at noon. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog as one of his customers (*people who buy sth. from a shop).But, the dog came again at four oclock. And the same thing happened once again. To the butchers more surprise, it came for the third time at six oclock, and brought with it a third piece of paper. The butcher felt a bit puzzled. He said to himself, “This is a small dog. Why does Mrs. Smith give it so much meat to eat today? ”Looking at the piece of paper, he found that there were not any words on it!56Mrs. Smith treated her little dog quite _.AcruellyBfairlyCkindly Dunfairly57It seemed that the dog knew well that the paper Mrs. Smith gave it_.Amight do it much harmBcould do it much goodCwould help the butcherDwas worth many pounds58The butcher did not give any meat to the dog _.Abefore he felt sure that the words were really written by Mrs. SmithBwhen he found that the words on the paper were not clearCbecause he had sold out all the meat in his shopDuntil he was paid enough by Mrs. Smith59From its experience, the dog found that _.Aonly the paper with Mrs. Smiths words in it could bring it meatBthe butcher would give the meat to it whenever he saw itCMrs. Smith would pay for the meat it got from the butcherDa piece of paper could bring it half a pound of meatBFebruary 14 is Valentines Day. Although it is celebrated as a lovers holiday today, with the giving of candy, flowers, or other gifts between couples in love, it originated in 5th Century Rome as a respect to St. Valentine, a Catholic bishop(基督教主教).For eight hundred years before Valentines Day was celebrated, the Romans had practiced a pagan(* not Christian) celebration in mid-February honoring young mens ceremony of passage to the god Lupercus. The celebration was characterized by a lottery (抽签) in which young men would draw the names of teenage girls from a box. The girl given to each young man in this way would be his wife the rest of the year.In an effort to do away with such a festival, Pope Gelasius ordered a slight change in the lottery. Instead of the names of young women, the box would contain the names of saints. Both men and women were allowed to draw from the box, and the game was to copy the ways of the saint they drew during the rest of the year. However, many young Roman men were not too pleased with the changes. Instead of the pagan god Lupercus, the Church looked for a suitable saint of love to take his place. They found an appropriate choice in Valentine, who, in AD 270 had been killed by Emperor Claudius.Claudius had determined that married men should be made poor soldiers, and banned(* not allow)marriage from his empire(* country). But Valentine would secretly marry(* 为主持婚礼) young men that came to him. When Claudius found out the secret, he first tried to make him a pagan. On the contrary(* 恰恰相反), Valentine was trying to make him a Christian(* 基督徒). When he failed, he was killed.While in prison, Valentine fell in love with the blind daughter of his jailer. His love for her managed to heal her from her blindness before his death. Before he was taken to his death, he signed a farewell message to her, “From your Valentine.”The phrase has been used on this day ever since.60What was Valentine?AA Roman king.BA pagan.CA Christian.

Every living thing has one. In humans, a body clock controls normal periods of sleeping and waking. It controls the times when you are most likely to feel pain. Eating, sleeping and exercising at about the same time each day will help keep body activities normal. But changes in your lifea new job, for exampledestroy the balance and thus cause health problems. You could have difficult sleeping, for example. Scientists suggest that early afternoon is the best time of day for physical exercise. They say we are stronger and faster then. Later, about four oclock, most people feel tired because of the drop of sugar level in the blood. Early afternoon also is a good time to do tasks about memory (记忆) and mathematics. If you must study, however, do it just before going to sleep at night. Scientists say you are more likely to remember information when there is a short delay (耽搁) between study and bed. Body clocks control all the activities from day to day. They also produce changes about every ninety minutes during the day. At the end of such a time period, our ability to think hard begins to become weak. That is the time we are most likely to daydream. Within fifteen minutes, we are ready to go back to what we were doing.68According to the passage, _.Aone can keep balance in the “body clock”Bscientists can control body activitiesCbody activities are under the control of an unseen force (力，力量)Dthe human body is always in balance69Irregular signs shown by “body clocks”may serve as a warning of _.Athe body clockBgrowing oldCpossible illnessesDdifficulty in sleeping70Wed like to do physical exercise early in the afternoon because _.Awe feel tired of doing anything elseBthe level of sugar in the blood dropsCwe cannot study thenDour body is most active then71The writer suggests that the best time to study is _.Aat night Blate afternoonCat about 4 oclock pmDin the morningEThe following findings, compiled from several surveys of Japanese aged 10 to 29, outline the characteristics of unique culture.72The percentage of girls singing karaoke is _.A63B83C42D2773The people who have cell/car phones are in the age group of _.A15-29 B10-14C11-16 D20s74 What does a 19-year-old boy often do?ATravel abroad BOwn video gamesCSmoke DUse e-mail75Whats the most popular thing for both boys and girls?ASing KaraokeBhave cell/car phones CSmokeDOwn video games第四部分：写作（共两节，满分 35 分） 第一节对话填空 (共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分)W: Dad, allowance day.
