Toronto Garden and Flower Show is the worlds largest garden show B Different weather makes people feel different. It influences health, intelligence(智力) and feelings. In August, it is very hot and wet in the southern part of theUnited States. People there have heart trouble and other kinds of health problems during this month. In the Northeast and theMiddle West, it is very hot at some times and very cold at other times. People in these states(州) have more heart trouble after the weather changes in February or March.The weather can also influence intelligence. For example, in a 1983 report by scientists, IQ(智商) of a group of students was very high when a very strong wind came, but after the strong wind, their IQ was 10% lower. The wind can help people have more intelligence. Very hot weather, on the other hand, can make it lower. Students in many schools of theUnited Statesoften get worse on exams in the hot months of the year (July and August).Weather also has a strong influence on peoples feelings. Winter may be a bad time for thin people. They usually feel cold during these months. They might feel unhappy during cold weather. But fat people may have a hard time in hot summer. At about 18, people become stronger. Low air pressure(气压) may make people forgetful(健忘). People leave more bags on buses and in shops on low-pressure days. People feel best at a temperature of about 18. Are you feeling sad, tired, forgetful, or unhappy today? It may be the weathers problem.21. What can cause problems on health？ A. Hot and wet weather B. A strong wind C. Warm weather D. Low air pressure22. A report shows that people may have more intelligence when _ comes. A. rain B. a strong wind C. very hot weather D. low air pressure23. According to(根据) the writer, fat people may feel bad in _ weather. A. cold B. cool C. warm D. hot24. The writer wants to tell us that _. A. hot and cold weather influences all people in the same way B. weather influences peoples behavior(行为) C. IQ changes when weather changes D. people feel good on low pressure days25. Which is the best title(标题) for this passage？ A. Hot Weather Causes Health Problems B. Different Weather Makes People Feel Bad C. Weather Influences Feelings D. Weather Influences Health, Intelligence and Feelings C Parents should stop blaming(责备） themselves because theres not a lot they can do about it. I mean the teenager problem. Whatever you do or however you choose to deal with it, at certain times a wonderful, reasonable and helpful child will turn into a terrible animal. Ive seen friends deal with it in all kinds of different ways. One strict mother insisted that her son, right from a child, should stand up whenever anyone entered the room, open doors and shake hands like a gentleman. I saw him last week when I called round. Sprawling(懒散地躺) himself on the sofa in full length, he made no attempt to turn off the loud TV he was watching as I walked in, and his greeting was no more than a quick glance at me. His mother was ashamed. “I dont know what to do with him these days,” she said. “Hes forgotten all the manners we taught him.” He hasnt forgotten them. Hes just decided that hes not going to use them. She said that she would like to come up behind him and throw him down from the sofa onto the floor. Another good friend of mine let her two daughters climb all over the furniture, reach across the table, stare at me and say, “I dont like your dress. Its ugly.” One of the daughters has recently been driven out of school. The other has left home. “Where did we go wrong?” her parents are now very sad. Probably nowhere much. At least, no more than the rest of that unfortunate race, parents. 26. We can read this passage in _. A. an advertisement B. a story book C. a magazine D. an entertainment newspaper27. This text is most probably written by _. A. a doctor for physical health problems B. a headmaster of a middle school C. a parent with teenage children D. a specialist in teenager studies 28. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to _. A. the advice that parents want their children to follow B. the change from good to bad thats seen in a child C. the opinion that a child has of his parents D. the way that parents often blame themselves29. From the second example we can infer that the parents of the two daughters _. A. pay no attention to them B. feel helpless to do much about them C. have come to hate them D. are too busy to look after them30. What is the authors opinion about the sudden change in teenage children? A. Parents should work more closely with school teachers. B. Parents should still pay more attention to the change. C. Parents have no choice but to try to accept it. D. Parents go wrong in changing their children.第二节（共5小题，每题2分，满分10分）请阅读文章，根据文章内容从A到F中选出合适的句子填入空格，使文章通顺连贯。选项中有一项是多余的选项。A What will you do if your hair or clothes start to burn?B Dont open a hot door!C Make escape plans.D Practice for a fire.E Put a smoke alarm in the houseF There are many possible causes for fires. People know the dangers of fires. Its good for a family to learn how to prepare for a fire. Here are some suggestions:_31_. Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to go off .The alarm makes a loud sound.

They do fire practice because they teach children about fire safety. Everyone in the family should know the following fire rules:_34_. The fire can grow more quickly if you open the door. Stay close to the floor! Smoke can be more dangerous than fire, The best air is near the floor because smoke rises._35_. First, stop! Dont run! The fire burns faster because of more air. Drop! Fall to the floor. Then roll! Turning over and over will make the fire go out. Put a blanket (毯子) around you to keep air away from the fire that may still be on you. A wise family is ready all the time. If there is a fire, dont forget to call 119 for help.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分25分)第一节 完形填空 (共15小题，每小题1分, 满分15分) Have you ever had problems in your life and dont know how to be happy?
