Mum pointed at a big chair by the door and I knew she wanted me to sit down. While I watched, mouth open in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift and took out a wet mop (拖把). She pushed the mop past the desk and as the nurse looked up, Mum nodded and said,” Very dirty floors.” “Yes. Im glad theyve finally decided to clean them,” the nurse answered. She looked at Mum strangely and said, “But arent you working late?” Mum just pushed harder, each swipe (拖) of the mop taking her farther and farther down the hall. I watched until she was out of sight and the nurse had turned back to writing in the big book. After a long time Mum came back. Her eyes were shining. She quickly put the mop back and took my hand. As we turned to go out of the door，Mum nodded politely to the nurse and said. “Thank you.” Outside, Mum told me: “Dagmar is fine. No fever.” “You saw her, Mum?” “ Of course. I told her about the hospital rules, and she will not expect us until tomorrow. Dad will stop worrying as well. Its a fine hospital. But such floors! A mop is no good. You need a brush.”24.

A. polite B. patient C. changeable D. cleverC Most animals have little connection with animals of a different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership (伙伴关系) which is good for both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生虫) on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other, they do better together. Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals (珊瑚) of the sea. In their skins they have tiny plants which act as “dustmen”, taking some of the waste products from the coral and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are even prevented from receiving light so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.28. Some birds like to sit on a sheep because _. A. they can eat its parasites. B. they enjoy traveling with the sheep. C. they depend on the sheep for existence. D. they find the position most comfortable.29. The underlined word “they” in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers to _. A. birds and parasites B. birds and sheep C. parasites and sheep D. sheep, birds and parasites30. We learn from the text that corals depend on plants for_. A. comfort B. light C. food D. oxygen31. What does the second paragraph mainly discuss? A. Some animals and plants depend on each other for existence. B. Some animals and plants develop their relationship easily. C. Some plants depend on each other for food. D. Some animals live better together.DIf you are a fruit grower or would like to become one take advantage of Apple Day to see whats around. Its called Apple Day but in practice its more like Apple Month. The day itself is on October 21, but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain. Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples. To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans. Although it doesnt taste of anything special, its still worth a try, as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cats Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else. There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions. One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette, but youll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it, so its a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it. At the events, you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions, and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园).If you want to have a real orchard experience, try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale, near Faversham in Kent.32. What can people do at the apple events? A .Attend experts lectures B .Visit fruit-loving families C .Plant fruit trees in an orchard D. Taste many kinds of apples33. What can we learn about Decio? A. It is a new variety B.I t has a strange look C. It is rarely seen now D. It has a special taste34. What does the underlined phrase “a pipe dream” in Paragraph 3mean? A.A practical idea B. A vain hope C.A brilliant plan D. A selfish desire35.What is the authors purpose in writing the text? A. To show how to grow apples B .To introduce an apple festival C. To help people select apples D. To promote apple research第二节 （共3小题，每小题3分，满分15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。 Do you know what a big dream is? 36 Or, is a big dream something that provides only entertainment? Children dream big dreams, but there are three barriers to realizing dreams.
