This is about the family standing ahead of us. The family had eight children. Their clothes were not expensive but 35 . The children were well behaved. They stood in line, two by two behind their parents, holding hands. They were excitedly talking about the clowns (小丑 ), elephants and other acts they would see that night. You could 36 that they had never been to the circus before. The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He 37 replied, “I want eight childrens tickets and two adult tickets please, so I can take my 38 to the circus.” The ticket lady quoted (报 ) the price. The mans wife let go of his hand. The mans lip started to quiver (颤抖 ). He leaned (靠 ) toward 39 and asked again, “How much did you say?” The ticket lady quoted the price again. The man didnt have 40 money. How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight kids that he couldnt take them to the circus? My dad put his hand into his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and 41 it on the ground. ( And we werent rich! ) Then he 42 down, picked up the bill, tapped the man on the shoulder and said, “Excuse me, sir, this 43 out of your pocket.” The man knew 44 was going on. He looked into my dads eyes, held my dads hand in his, and took the $ 20 bill. With a tear in his eye, he replied, “Thank you, thank you, sir. This really 45 a lot to me and my family.” My father and I went back to our car and drove home. We didnt get to see the circus that night, but we didnt 46 . 35. A. clean B. large C. thick D. warm 36.

The programme “English classroom” lasts minutes. A. 35 B. 30 C. 60 D. 20 B Which country grows the most tea? The answer is India. It grows three times as much as China. Which country drinks the most tea? Its neither China nor Japan. Its Great Britain. In the wild, tea plants may be 30 feet tall. But a plant grown for market is pruned (修剪 ). Pruning keeps the plant only three or four feet tall. This is an easy height for tea picking. Only the two top leaves and bud of each new shoot are picked. So to make money, tea plantations must be huge. In general, there are two kinds of tea. Black tea and green tea. Black tea is fermented (发酵 ). In the process, the tea loses nearly all of its healthy qualities. Green tea is steamed(蒸炒 ) right after the leaves are picked. Green tea retains its healthy qualities. For example, it may prevent heart disease. How did we get tea bag? The answer: by accident. Tea merchants(商人 ) used to send samples in tin boxes. This was costly. One merchant thought of a cheaper way. He sent samples in small silk bags. Customers would cut open the bag. They would brew the leaves as usual. One customer put the bag into a pot. Then he just poured(倒 ) hot water over it. And the tea bag was born. Shen Nong was the first to drink tea. (Shen was a Chinese emperor. ) This was about 2737 B.C. Shen had bad digestion. So he drank several cups of hot water daily. One day something happened. Leaves from a wild tea tree fell into the hot water pot. The next cup was poured. The water was now colored. Shen sipped it. He liked it. He drank it all. Shen was proud of his new drink. He served it to his guests. Word spread. People thought this way. Tea is good enough for the Emperor. So it must be good enough for the people. Tea became the drink of China. 51. The best title for this passage should be . A. Black Tea B. Tea Plant C. About Tea D. Tea Bag 52. One difference between green tea and black tea is that green tea . A. must be pruned B. has a better taste C. is fermented D. is much healthier 53. What does the underlined word “retains” mean? A. Keeps. B. Makes. C. Produces. D. Loses. 54. We can learn from this passage that . A. tea bag was invented by a merchant B. tea is better than any other drink C. tea is popular in many countries D. tea only grows in warm climates C Geography is the study of Earth and its climates. Scientists use it to study global (全球的 ) warming and track (跟踪 ) the weather. Governments use it to learn where people live and work and to plan what to do with the land. It is now easier than ever to use geography because of a science called space technology. The United States launched its first satellite in 1958. Some space missions(使命 ) that followed were geographical studies. In fact, earth science is a big part of the work of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Astronauts looked out of the space shuttle(航天飞机 ). They decided to take photographs of Earth from their vantage point. Over the years, picture quality improved. Shuttle photography now shows land features, such as rivers. It can even show the streets of large cities. Photos of the same places at different times show how the land is changing. NASA does not use just photographs, though. In 1958 it launched TIROS (the Television Infrared Observation Satellite). This first use of a satellite to study Earth was effective(有效的 ) in giving weather forecasts. It led to the creation of new space tools to use in geography. The Landsat Program began in 1972. This satellite sent detailed(细致的 ) views of Earth from space. The pictures were so precise (精确 ) that scientists could count the number and kinds of crops in a field. Landsat showed where Earths surface had faults along which earthquakes might happen. This information helped in the planning of new cities and factories. Landsat also made discoveries. In Antarctica it located ranges of unknown mountains. It pinpointed small lakes in Virginia that were not on maps. Landsat, now more advanced, still flies today. Another space tool is Earth Observing - 1 ( EO - 1 ). This spacecraft flies right behind Landsat. It takes pictures of the same sites. The two sets of pictures, viewed together, show how cities grow and how other places, such as rain forests, become smaller over time. This helps scientists learn how people affect(影响 ) geography. One of the newest space tools is the Geographical Information Systems (GIS). GIS is computer software that helps scientists to study Earth. GIS is different from earlier space tools. Businesses, schools, and even average people not just the government can use it to show them how changes in the planet might affect them. 55. Why do governments study geography according to the passage? A. To improve the environment. B. To make the land use plan. C. To make new discoveries. D. To count the crops in a field. 56. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. The U.S. satellite program began in 1972. B. Landsat was able to take pictures of other planets. C. TIROS was successful in giving weather forecasts. D. GIS can only be used by the government. 57. EO -1 takes photographs of the same places as Landsat because . A. the two groups of pictures can show the changes of Earth B. EO - 1 is practicing for future photography missions C. Landsat is out of date and new pictures are needed D. Landsat cant send detailed views of Earth from space 58. From the passage, we can infer that . A. GIS is the newest computer to study Earth B. NASA only depends on photos to study Earth C. satellite pictures can give more detailed imformations D. recent U.S. satellites are as advanced as the old ones 第卷 (非选择题 50 分 ) 一、听独白，按要求完成下面的听力任务。 (共 8 分，每小题 2 分 ) 请根据所听到的独白内容和表格中的提示词语，独白读两遍。 Our Class Number of students 59 All students like 60 Number of subjects 61 Programs in the party 62 二、根据 中文意思完成句子。 (共 10 分，每小题 2 分 ) 63. 12 点半了，该吃午饭了。 Its half past twelve. lunch. 64. 我这周很忙，下周二怎么样 ?

Energy has many different forms. One form, electricity, comes mostly from steam-powered generators(蒸汽发电机 ). Steam is made by burning coal, oil, or natural gas. Gasoline(汽油 ) is another form of energy. Gasoline is made from oil. Oil has many other uses. Paints, fertilizers, and plastics are made from it. We even use it to heat buildings. Coal, oil, and gas are natural resources (资源 ). We take them from nature to make our lives easier. We can classify(分类 ) natural resources as either renewable or nonrenewable. Coal, oil, and gas are nonrenewable. They take millions of years to form. Some scientists predict that we will run out of oil and gas in 50 to 100 years. Coal is more plentiful. So it may last for hundreds of years. Resources such as wood and water are renewable. They can be grown or recycled naturally. They can, however, become limited from overuse. We have developed some alternate (替代的 ) sources of energy. But these sources have disadvantages. For example, hydroelectric power, or energy from running water, affects the ecology (生态 ) of surrounding areas. Nuclear power(核电 ), another alternate source, presents the threat (威胁 ) of nuclear accidents. There are also problems related to the storage (储存 )of nuclear wastes. Solar and wind energies arent consistent. We cant depend on them. Geothermal energy, caused by heat from inside the earth, is tapped by drawing steam and hot water from pools and geysers. This energy source, like most others, isnt fully developed. Its time to get serious about energy. We must find practical, alternate energy sources. If we wait too long, it will be too late. We will run out of coal, oil, and natural gas. Then we wont have the resources to make alternate energy sources. 75. Does oil have many uses? 76. How long may coal last according to the passage? 77. Why are wood and water renewable resources? 78. What can be problems with nuclear power? 79. Whats the main idea of the passage? 五、书面表达。 (共 15 分 ) 根据中文提示和英文书信内容，写一封意思连贯，符合逻辑，不 少于 60 词的回信。 (信中不能出现真实姓名或校名 ) 英国学生 TONY 在 DIARY 网站上发了一个帖子。假如你叫 Henry，请根据其内容做出回复。 要针对他的问题谈谈你的看法，同时提出一些建议。 Dear Diary, Im a 14-year-old boy, and in the eighth grade.

You may not be able to solve all the problems before the mid-term exam. But if you keep trying, youll do much better in the future. Best wishes!
