Money was always tight, but we had a roof over our heads, food on the table, clothes on our backs, and if not a lot, always 16 . Not knowing we were poor, my kids just thought I was strict. Ive always been glad about that.It was Christmas time, and although there wasnt 17 for a lot of gifts, we planned to celebrate with a family party. But the big 18 for the kids was the fun of Christmas 19.They planned weeks ahead of time, asking20what they wanted for Christmas.

Do you get a healthier，safer and more refreshing(提神的)drink when you buy bottled water off the shelf? My answer is“no”，and doing so hurts the environment and your wallet.First of all，there are no studies showing that bottled water is better for you，and in fact，it may be less safe than tap water. A study of over l，000 people in Belfast found that they couldnt tell the differences between tap water and bottled water when asked which was purer，more pleasant，natural and refreshing. Bottled water can come from springs(泉水)or from the mountains. It can also be treated，for example，to have iron(铁)removed. It is reported that there is around 82.8g of CO2 for a half-liter(半公升)bottle. This will be harmful to peoples health when everyones drinking it. However，bottled water is popular with many people. Its success is from excellent marketing and our laziness in filling reusable bottles with tap water.Secondly，bottled water can cost between 500 to 1，000 times more than tap water. In 2015，the UK drank 2.4 billion liters of bottled water，and by 2016 this had risen to 2.6 billion liters. Yet，you get this from the tap, for free.Besides，recycling is improving, but in America, it is said that only a quarter of bottles can be used again. So is it really so good that it is worth both paying for and harming the earth? Or should you stop buying it ?As a general rule，I believe that most of us should enjoy more tap water，and stop using so many bottles.( )35. Why do many people like bottled water? A. Because bottled water has iron remolded. B. Because bottled water has cheaper than tap water. C. Because theres around 82.8g of CO2 for a bottle. D. Because people are lazy to fill reusable bottles with tap water.( )36. What can we learn from the numbers in the third paragraph? A. People spend more and more money on bottled water every year. B. Bottled water sells well because of its excellent marketing. C. More people begin to drink tap water to save money. D. The British drink the most bottled water in the world.( )37. What does the writer mainly talk about in the passage? A. How tap water should be drunk. B. The advantages of drinking tap water. C. Why people like drinking bottled water.D. The disadvantages of drinking bottled water.CWhen you cough or sneeze, youd better turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand. And then, you should say, “Excuse me.”This seems so simple, but it is surprising how many kids have never been told to do this. Actually, I notice adults all the time who cough and sneeze in public without placing a hand over the mouth. One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hands, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. If not, they will be passing those germs (细菌) along to everything and everyone they touch.If you come to a door and someone is following you, hold the door. If the door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the other person to pass through first, then you can walk through. If the door opens by pushing, hold the door after you pass through.After a few weeks of seeing kids try to get through doors in the school and watching them enter restaurants as the door hit other people, I knew I had to discuss the problem with my students. Teaching them small acts of kindness, such as letting someone else go through a door first as they hold it open, may seem unimportant, but it can go along way toward helping students realize how to be polite and thank others. Once theyve been told, theyre halfway there.When we have to go up moving stairs, we will stand to the right. That will give others who are in a hurry a choice of walking up the left-hand side of the moving stairs. When we are going to enter a lift, the underground, or a doorway, we will wait for others to exit before we enter.After college when I moved to London, I was surprised at how polite everyone was in the subways. I was even more touched when I traveled to Japan. In both places, people made efforts to make way for others. On moving stairs, everyone stood to the right and walked to the left. On lifts, everyone would stand over to the side and allow others to exit before they would begin to enter.( )38. When you cough or sneeze, you should _.A. touch everything B. cover your mouthC. point out to the kids D. pass the germs to others( )39. If you come to a door and someone is following you, youd better _.A. hold the door B. pass through C. close the door D. stand to the side( )40. Why should we stand to the right of moving stairs?A. Because its dangerous to stand to the left.B. Because its a traffic rule which we must follow.C. Because we must wait for others to move first.D. Because we should make way for people in a hurry.( )41. From the passage we can know the writer is a _.A. doctor B. traveler C. parent D. teacher( )42. A. The passage is mainly about _.A. the rules of acts in public B. the ways of communicationC. the problems of meeting people D. the knowledge of social life4、 词汇运用（共16小题，每小题1分，满分16分） A)选用方框内的单词填空，其中有一个单词是多余的。millions accepts regretted ability receives polluting43.

There are some traditions that you can find almost anywhere, anytime, such as sending birthday cards, blowing out the candles on a birthday cake and singing the Happy Birthday song. Others are only found for certain ages and in certain countries.In China, on a childs second birthday, family members put many things on the floor around the child. According to Chinese tradition, the first thing that the child picks up tells you what the child will do later in life.For Japanese children, the third, fifth and seventh birthdays are especially important. At this age, there is a special celebration Shichi-Go-San (seven, five, three in Japanese) when children go to the temple wearing a new kimono (和服). The priest (僧侣) gives them special sweets, and the parents usually organize a party for their friends in their home.In Argentina, Mexico and several other Latin American countries, girls have a special birthday celebration when they reach the age of fifteen.

Each year, this butterfly travels about 3000 miles to its winter home in central Mexico(墨西哥). How can it fly so far and why does it make this long and dangerous trip. Scientists still dont have an answer. For many years, people in Mexico wondered where the orange-and-black butterflies came from every winter. Then, in 1937, a scientist started to follow and study the butterflies. For the next 20 years, he discovered that one butterfly started its journey in Canada. Four months later, it arrived in Mexico. The length of the butterflies trip is only one part of the mystery. Another amazing thing is that the butterflies always return to the same area in central Mexico. How do the butterflies find their way back to the same place. This is an interesting question because only every fourth generation (代) makes the trip south. In other words, the butterfly that travels to Mexico this year is the great-great-grandchild of the butterfly t
