Alet off fireworks Bsing with American pop singersChave good Chinese meals Dwatch exciting Chinese dragon danceBA Car Drives Through ItWhen youre in a hurry, theres nothing more convenient(方便的) than a drive-through. Often written “drive-thru,” this convenience began because Americans love cars a lot. Companies wanted to make it easier for people to do business without leaving their cars.A bank opened a drive-through in1943. Fast-food restaurants followed in the 1940s. Both fast-food restaurants and banks use microphones and speakers to communicate with customers. Fast-food customers give their orders from their car. Then they drive up next to a window in the building to receive their meals. Banking customers receive their cash from an automatic drawer.Coffee shops and chemists have windows where drivers pull up to get coffee or medicine. Alan Hilowitz, a spokesperson for the Starbucks Coffee Company, told The New York Times newspaper, “Drive-throughs are a matter of customer want and customer need. Living a busy life, people often try anything that will fit a little more into the day while they are talking on mobile phones(手机).”51 opened drive-thrus in the late 1940s.

Now about 1,000 companies are allowed to take children into the great outdoors without their parents.The reason why people like “Survival Holidays” is that they think being close to nature is good for children. Many children in big cities spend all time watching TV and playing computer games. “Survival Holidays” gives them an important change.Is “Survival Holidays” a wonderful idea? Maybe it is. Children need more free time to play. They need to be left on their own, without adults disturbing them. Parents care too much about their children. They like to see the children being busy with activities that are controlled by adults, which causes many problems. Children dont know what to do when they are in danger. Even something like crossing a small river seems to be a hard challenge. Children are not comfortable with danger. Even slight danger like getting their feet wet or falling down seems very terrible to them.Many people think the survival activities are good for children. Even years later, they will still remember what they have learned. Some have learned to stay calm in different times. Some have learned how to keep safe. Others have learned how to work in a team. All these skills will help them a lot in their lives.54According to the passage, the activities in “Survival Holidays” are .Adangerous Bcomfortable Cboring Dexciting55What do you know from the passage? AParents and children will join “Survival Holidays” together. BChildren are not allowed to watch TV during “Survival Holidays”. CThe skills children learn during “Survival Holidays” will be of great help. DChildren play computer games together during the “Survival Holidays”.56We can infer(推断) from the passage that . Achildren like the activities controlled by their parents Bchildren are tired of their lives in the “Survival Holidays” Cmore parents may send their children to join “Survival Holidays” Dliving in nature is not a big challenge to childrenDWhy dont birds get lost on their long flights from one place to another? Scientists have puzzled over this question for many years. Now they are beginning to fill in the blank.Not long ago, experiments proved that birds depend on the sun to show them the way during daylight hours. But what about birds that mainly fly at night? Tests with man-made stars have shown that certain night=flying birds are able to follow stars on their long-distance flights.One such bird a warbler had spent its lifetime in a cage(笼子) and had never flown under a natural sky at night. Yet it showed an inborn ability to use the stars. The birds cage was put under a man-made star-filled sky. The birds cage as its outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the man-made stars caused a change in the direction of its flight.Scientists think that warblers, when flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But stars are their main dependence of flying at night. What do they do when stars are hidden by clouds? They find their way by such landmarks as mountains, beaches, and rivers. But when its too dark to see these, the warblers circle helplessly, unable to get their directions.57The reason why birds dont get lost on long flights .Ais still a secret Bis well known Chas recently been discovered Dhas been known for many years58What does the underlined word “cousins” in paragraph 3 refer to?AStars. BWarblers. CScientists. DExperiments.59The experiment with the warbler shows that birds .Acannot fly at night Bwill not fly long distances Chave to be taught to fly at night Dfollow the stars when flying at night60Which may be the best title for the passage?AClever Birds BNight-flying Birds CAn Interesting Experiment DMan-made Stars and Warblers七、阅读短文，还原句子。（共8分，每小题2分）阅读下面的短文，从文章后所给的五个句子中，选择四个句子填入文中空缺处，使短文内容完整、合理。Mobile Phones in Middle SchoolsMobile phones are more and more popular nowadays.

He is said to make $ 1 million an hour. But for Bill Gates, the founder of the world s biggest soft ware company, Microsoft, money is just a tool.In 2008, Gates said he would give all his money to help those in need. Since then, he has spent most of his time with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Its the worlds biggest charity foundation(慈善基金会) under him and his wife.But Gates was not born to help the poor. He didnt reply the letters asking for help. Nut in 1993, after a trip to Africa, he understood how much others needed his help. Then he changed his lifestyle. “We knew that we were just holders of the money. Our money would go back to society,” said Gates.His idea is shared with his best friend, Warren Buffett, the richest man in the world in 2008. “Money is just like claim checks (提货单) on society that I should give back,” said Buffett.Buffett, 79years old now, says he still loves Coca-Cola and burgers, wears old clothes and lives in the same house he bought 50 years ago. However, Buffett has decided to give 85 percent of his money to Gates charity progr
