But very few people can afford a global tour because hotels, food and airplane tickets are too expensive. Some people, however, have thought of some ways to realize their dreams.Laura Cody and Tanbay Theune, a couple from Britain, decided to travel around the world. They have found a good way to pay for their trips. They look after pets for rich house owners. In exchange, they can stay in the houses for free. They have looked after horses, cows, cats, dogs and fish. In two years, the couple has been to Australia, Germany, Spain and Italy. They have stayed in big cities and small villages. The home owners are usually very generous and have given them food, wine and day trips.Another person who tries to realize her travel dream is photographer Rhiannon Taylor. She travels around the world to visit, review and take photos of the best hotels. She shares the places she stays and the food she eats on the Internet with tens of thousands of followers.With these ways of making money, traveling around the world is no longer a dream. More and more young people are thinking creatively to make their dream come true.41. Why do most people feel hard to make their travel dream come true?A. Because they can hardly find hotels.B.

What does the underlined word “generous” mean in Chinese?A.吝啬的 B.友善的 C.慷慨的 D.冷漠的DI think it is safe to say that snakes are not popular among most people. It would be hard to find a person who is neutral (中立的), or simply doesnt care one way or the other. What I wonder is why something even without legs causes such great fear.Snakes are quite useful, but that doesnt seem to matter. Snakes help control the population of mice. Without snakes, perhaps we would find mice everywhere. Most of us, however, would rather see a mouse than a snake.The poison argument (毒性的争论) is a strong one. Some snakes are poisonous, and this causes peoples death. However, the poisonous snakes are only a small number. We cant say all the snakes are bad just because of a few dangerous ones.And what do we do with the people who really like snakes? They like snakes even more strongly than we dislike them. These people learn about them, find them out, and watch them carefully. Why? The only reason I can think of is that these people are open-minded. They are able to put aside differences and welcome the snake as a friend.Whatever the reason for our like or dislike, snakes do something good in the circle of life. They would prefer to be left alone, and that is what we should do. If youre lucky, you might not run across more than a few of them in a lifetime. That would be fine with most of us.46. How does the writer describe the appearance of snakes?A. Something even without legs.B. Something not popular among people.C. A person who is neutral.D. A person who cares about nothing.47. Which of the following shows that most people dislike snakes?A. They welcome snakes as their best friends.B. They would rather see a mouse than a snake.C. They wonder why snakes can cause great fear.D. They learn about snakes and watch them carefully.48. Although some snakes are poisonous, _.A. they cause many peoples deathB. they control the population of miceC. they are not dangerous to peopleD. they are only a small number49. People who really like snakes are open-minded because they _.A. are able to put aside differencesB. think all the snakes are poisonousC. are able to deal with poisonous snakesD. take part in the poison argument50. The last paragraph seems to tell us that the writer _.A. dislikes snakesB. has the best luckC. loves snakesD. prefers to be left alone四、回答问题（共15小题，每小题2分；满分30分）阅读短文，然后根据内容回答所提问题。AOpen April to October9 am to 11 am2 pm to 5 pmClosed SundaysAdults: 2.00Concessions: 1.50Students: 1.00Children: 0.50Clachan, Bettyhill, Sutherland,KW14 7SSTel: 01641 521418Email: .uk51.

Gracie Goodpasture, from Virginia, US, not only raises them, but also tries to breed (喂养) the “perfect chicken”. And she even won an award for her love of science.Gracie started breeding chickens in her third grade at Steward School. At first, she worked on some farms for her school project. But later, the 14-year-old started to have some ideas of her own.“Some have thicker eggshells (蛋壳), and theyre hearty (健壮的) throughout the winter,” said Grade.Since then, the young science lover started to try to find the healthiest free-range (散养) chickens. And she ended up breeding a type that now bears her name.The National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) gave the 2015 Angela Award to Gracie Goodpasture. Her interests dont end with chickens and eggs. She is also into building robots and testing preservatives (防腐剂) in fast foods. In her words, she wants to go to Virginia Tech for poultry (家禽) sciences in the future.61. Where is Gracie from?62. In which grade did Gracie start breeding chickens?63.

Did you ever 66 who was the first person to have your surname?Many modern British surnames go 67 to the Vikings and Anglo-Saxons who ruled England for 300 years, until 1066 AD. During those 68 , people just had one name. To tell each person apart, the Anglo-Saxons added 69 the place a person came from or the job they did to their first name. For example, a lady called Agatha 70 the town of Blackburn could be called Agatha Blackburn.The Vikings, on the other hand, 71 the name of a persons father or mother. So Erik Jonsson was the son of a man named Jon. Many Viking men 72 had nicknames (绰号). These used to mean the opposite of what the person was actually like. For example, John Short could be a very 73 man, or Erik Wise could be a man who was not very clever!So, next time someone tells you their surname, stop and think for a minute. It might tell you 74 about their ancestors(祖先) from centuries ago!B) 阅读短文，然后用短文括号中所给词的适当形式填空。Today I took part in a quiz show at a TV studio. When I arrived at 75 (eighth) oclock, a woman put make-up on my face, and brushed my hair.Then the director came. He told me to stay 76 (relax) and not to worry. It was really kind of him to do that.
