store was different from the others. it was thick soft and well preserved, with a black velvet collar, beautiful tailoring, and a fifth avenue label at an unbelievable price: mym28 （171 yuan）. i looked at my son and we both said nothing, but johns eyes gleamed（隐约闪光）. dark, woolen topcoats were popular with teenage boys, but they could cost several hundred dollars. this coat was even better. john tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. the fit was perfect.he wore the coat to school the next day and came home with a grin. “did the kids like your coat?”i asked. “they loved it,” he said.over the next few weeks, john changed. he was polite, less argumentative, more thoughtful, and overall much happier. “good dinner, mom,” he would say every evening. without a word of objection（反对） he would carry in wood for the stove. one day when i suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, john, who always put things off, said: “youre right. i guess i will.” when i mentioned this to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him. john and i both know that clothes do not define a person, but there is something to be said for looking good. sometimes, watching john leave for school, ive remembered what it felt like to be in the eighth grade a time when it is as easy to try on different approaches to life as it is to try on a coat. the whole future is stretched out ahead, where all the doors are open. and if i were there right now, i would picture myself walking through those doors wearing my wonderful, magical coat.51. what can be the best title of the text?a. a magical coat b. a promising boyc. a shopping experienced. a bright future52. from paragraph 2 we can know that john _.a. refused to try on the

thanksgiving day, and mine is no different. once the national holiday arrives, my mom rises early to make the meal. she puts a turkey in the oven, chops carrots and bakes pies. im sorry to say that the men in the family my dad, my younger brother and myself seldom help. our job is to wash the mountain of dirty dishes after the meal is over.around 2 pm every thanksgiving day, family members seat themselves around the kitchen table. plates of turkey, vegetables, salad, rolls and pies cover it. at this point, we can hardly keep ourselves from drooling (流口水) all over our fancy clothes, but its not yet time to eat.first, we must bow our heads, close our eyes and say a prayer (祈祷) of thanks aloud to god for giving us everything we have. usually i would have no problem making a list of things i am thankful for. i grew up in a loving family. my parents, who arent wealthy, took out loans (贷款) to help me pay for university.but, the funny thing is, every time i sit down for thanksgiving dinner and try to say a prayer of thanks, my mind usually goes blank. i think it has something to do with my growling (咕咕叫) stomach and all of that food sitting right there under my nose.finally, though, we all finish our short prayers and dig in. to be sure, the day includes other highlights visiting with family and watching football. but usually around 6 pm we are all ourselves stuffed like turkeys and thankful to have a nice warm bed to sleep in. 55. the purpose of the text is to _.a. tell the real meaning thanksgiving day conveysb. tell how the family spends thanksgiving dayc. introduce foods served on thanksgiving dayd. introduce the american thanksgiving day56. on thanksgiving day the authors family do the following except _.a. watching a movie b. making visitsc. having a big meal d.

speak.d. he is shy to speak in public.58. the underlined phrase “dig in” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “_”.a. chat with others b. make a holec. mix things up d. start eatingcas rain begins to fall from the clouds, it is very pure. however, as it falls through the air it dissolves some of the gases in the air. it also collects bits of dust and microbes (微生物) that are floating in the air. when the rain reaches the ground it begins to pick up more dust and dirt. many kinds of mineral substances (物质) dissolve in the water. sand and mud cannot dissolve in water. since water is so important to us, it is very important that the water we use should be clean. otherwise, we might get some of the diseases that are carried by water. many microbes are harmful. they are so small that we cannot see them. these microbes must be removed or killed before the water is suitable for drinking. for example, microbes of diseases like cholera live well in water. if the water supply is not clean, people who drink this water may get these diseases. thus, to provide people with clean water, the government purifies (净化) the water.purification is a long process and includes three stages: storing, purifying and distributing(分送). the first stage is storing. man-made lakes are used for this purpose. water from the rains, other lakes, streams and rivers is collected in the lakes. this water is usually dirty and muddy. in the second stage, water from the man-made lakes is filtered (过滤) in a special pond. stones, sand and other unwanted tiny things are caught in it. after that, tiny microbes are still present in the water. these microbes are removed by “airing” the water and by adding a chemical substance called chlorine (氯) to the water. this kills all the microbes in the water. after this, the water can be safely used for drinking.the third stage is the distribution of the purified water to homes, hospitals, offices, factories and other places. this is done through a network of pipes of various sizes. these pipes must be made of a suitable material. 59. from paragraph 1, we can learn that _.a. rain has contained gases when it forms in the cloudsb. dust and microbes are also dissolved in rain when rain fallsc. the closer rain is to the ground, the more impure things it containsd. sand and mud are things rain collects when it falls through the air60. according to paragraph 2, the following statements are true except that _.a. all the microbes in water are harmful so water must be purifiedb. some diseases can spread through drinking water if it is not cleanc. water is safe to drink if harmful microbes are got rid of from itd. it is the governments responsibility to make drinking water clean61. what can we know about man-made lakes? a. it is used through the whole process of purification. b. only rain water can be collected and stored in it. c. water collected can be stored and filtered in it. d. water from it contains a lot of impure substances.62. what is the purpose of adding chlorine to the water? a. to air the waterb. to catch tiny things c. to kill tiny microbesd. to remove harmful gasesd are you a bookworm? is your head stuck in a book for
