Clothes and toys surround him. Bags of potatoes line the walls. But these things are not for him. Jonathon gives them all away.Many people celebrate Christmas by giving gifts to family and friends. But Jonathon spreads holiday cheer to people he has never met.When Jonathon was in fourth grade, his class learned about the Appalachian region (地区) of Virginia. Jonathon was surprised to learn that a lot of the kids in that part of the state dont have many toys or clothes. Jonathon told his Dad that he wanted to donate (捐赠) some of his own toys and clothes to kids in Appalachian.Over the next few weeks, Jonathon asked other people for donations. Neighbors, friends, and kids from Jonathons school dropped off toys and clothes on his doorstep. Every day, new presents appeared. Soon there was enough to fill two huge trucks!Jonathon and his Dad drove to the Appalachian Mountains and gave away all the presents. Their goal had been to help five needy families. They had enough to help more than 100 families! Over the past few years, Jonathons gifts for Appalachian Project has donated thousands of boxes filled with toys, books, clothes, and food. Jonathon and his Dad packed all of them. They visited a different part of the Appalachian region each year. Jonathon says the best part of it is when kids see the toys. “All the faces light up with excitement.” Each year, after giving away the gifts, Jonathon and his Dad return home to celebrate their holiday together. They are tired but happy. A few months later, Jonathon will start collecting donations again. He is already thinking about what his Christmas visit will bring to others next year.21. Before starting his project, Jonathon learned about kids in Appalachia _. A. from his father B. from one of his neighbors C. during a visit here D. during school time22. Lots of presents Jonathon received _. A. were bought by his parents. B. were donated by people around. C. were from those who loved him. D. were sent to his school mates.23. Jonathon and his Dad go to the Appalachia to _. A. collect donations B. spend Christmas there C. send Christmas gifts D. get people to pack the gifts24. The text is mainly about _. A. kids in the Appalachian region B. donations from Appalachia C. a boy helping needy kids D. a lucky boy with a lot of presentsB Kevin Donnelly loves to play soccer. Not long ago, the New Jersey teen spent all weekend on the soccer field - three games on Saturday and three on Sunday. Hes not alone. 40,000,000 kids play sports. But its not just the number of kids playing thats amazing. Parents are spending a lot of money and time on their kids sports. Kevins parents will pay about $3,000 this year for him to play soccer. Many parents pay top dollar so that their kids can have the private lessons and the best equipment. Others spend hours driving their kids to games. Has the love of competition gone too far? Or, are the benefits (好处) of team sports worth the high costs and pressure to win? Experts say that kids benefit from playing team sports as long as they are having fun. “We know from a lot of research that kids who join in sports are likely to do better at studying,” says Mark Goldstein, a researcher at Roosevelt University in Chicago. “It forces them to be more planned with their time.” Yet parents and coaches can take all the fun out of playing. Many say that is why 73 percent of kids give up their sports by age 13. “They stop playing because it is no longer fun, and the pressure put on them by coaches and parents doesnt make it worthwhile (值得的),” says Fred Engh, a coach and the author of the book Why Jonnny Hates Sports. Even worse, injuries from competition seem to be on the rise. The Consumer Product Safety Commission reports that four million kids end up in hospitals for sports-related injuries each year. Still, some kids live for sports. They say that the joy of competition cant be measured (衡量) in dollars and cents or runs and goals. “Its my life,” says Aidan Wolfe, 10, a soccer player in Portland, Oregon. “I love soccer. If my parents told me I couldnt play anymore, Id be devastated.” 25. Mark Goldstein may agree that _. A. kids should play sports based on a fair rule B. team sports help kids become well organized C. parents should control the money spent on sports D. the time spent on sports should be less than on study26. Many kids stop playing sports by age 13 because _. A. their parents can not afford the high costs B. they face great pressure of study C. it is no fun anymore D. they get hurt easily27. The underlined word “devastated” in the last paragraph expresses a feeling of _. A. happiness B. sadness C. excitement D. fear28. Whats the best title for the text? A. The price to play B. The popularity of soccer C. Sports or study? D. Time or money? CThe Flamingo Las Vegas is one of the oldest Las Vegas hotel.

Some records from about 2,000 years ago tell about fish and frog falling from the sky. There is one place where animal rain is common. In the city of Yoro, in Honduras, fish fall from the sky in May or June every year. The fish are small and silver-colored. They are even still alive. People can collect the fish to eat. But where have the fish come from?There are some theories (理论) about animal rains. Some researchers say the fish are fresh water fish. The fish are also all blind. This leads them to believe the fish usually live under the ground, they would not need to see. Another theory held by most researchers is that water spouts make most animal rains happen. A water spout is a tall stream of water that the wind pulls up from the sea during a violent storm. Water spouts are strong enough to lift small animals, like fish, from the water. So during a storm, a water spout gathers fish from the water into clouds. Then the clouds travel across land, following normal weather movements. Finally, the storm ends. The fish drop to land.However, this theory does have some problems. Many people do not believe the rain of fish in Yoro comes from a water spout. That is because most animal rains do not happen often-or a year after year. But the rain of fish in Yoro happens every year, near the same time. And it has happened for over 100 years in this way!People may never know the scientific reason behind Yoros rain of fish. But the people of Yoro do not need a scientific explanation. They call it a miracle (奇迹).33. What is the main cause of animal rains according to the most scientists? A. Ground movementsB. Water spouts C. Weather changes D. Storm clouds34. In what way is the animal rain in Yoro different from those in other areas? A. It has a history of 2,000 years. B. It sometimes rains frogs. C. It seems much heavier. D. It happens regularly.35. What is the text mainly about? A. A kind of a silver-colored fish. B. A true miracle of science. C. The mystery of fish rain. D. The amazing city of Yoro.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。 注意，请把答案涂在答题卡上，E=AB, F=AC, G=AD As we all know, friendship is of great importance in our daily life.
