But for me, whenever I do give money, thats just the wrapping (包装纸) . The real gift is hidden insideits love. And I havent ever found any reason to limit gifts of love.” By the end of the night, I decided to get some pizza. In front of me in line was a homeless-looking man. He was counting the few dollars bills in his hand, over and over again, until it was his turn to order. Just then, he told the young woman behind the counter, “Ill have the full cheese pizza.” “Full?” she asked. “Its really big,” she added, although what she really meant to say was that itd be too expensive for him. “Yeah, the full” “$18.65,” she submitted. The bills he was counting werent going to make it. I wasnt intending to get the whole pizza for him. But thinking back to my conversation with the business man, I realized that money was really just the wrapping. I made my move. “Can you charge that pizza with my order” I said to the cashier. “Really?” the homeless-looking man said. “Really?” the young woman behind the counter repeated. “Yes, really.” That confused man and I had a sweet silent moment. To his silent question of why I was doing it, I added, “Just pay it forward for someone else.” And he said, “Well, you know what? I was actually treating these five homeless guys out there.” He was actually paying it forward, in the first place. What an unexpected fortune to get a chance to be a part of a mans act of kindness.29. What can we learn about the author from the first paragraph?A.He believes its not money but love that matters.B.

B.Because he wanted to pay it forward.C.Because he wanted to treat his own five children.D.Because he wanted to help some homeless people.32.What is the best title for the passage? A. Paying it forward B. Helping a homeless man C. A talk with a businessman D. Money was just the wrappingDThe splendid aurora light displays that appear in Earths atmosphere around the north and south magnetic(磁的) poles were once mysterious phenomena. Now, scientists have data from satellites and ground-based observations from which we know that the aurora brilliance is a massive electrical discharge similar to that occurring in a neon sign.To understand the cause of auroras, first picture the Earth enclosed by its magnetosphere(磁层), a huge region created by the Earths magnetic field. Outside the magnetosphere, rushing toward the earth is the solar wind, a speedily moving body of ionized(离子化的) gases with its own magnetic field. Charged particles(粒子) in this solar wind speed earthward along the solar winds magnetic lines of force. The Earths magnetosphere is a barrier to the solar winds, and forces the charged particles of the solar wind to flow around the magnetosphere itself. But in the polar regions, the magnetic lines of force of the Earth and of the solar wind gather together. Here many of the solar winds charged particles break through the magnetosphere and enter Earths magnetic field. They then rush back and forth between the Earths magnetic poles very rapidly and ionize and excite the atoms of the upper atmosphere of the Earth, causing them to produce aurora radiations of visible light.The colors of an aurora depend on the atoms producing them. The leading greenish-white light comes from low energy excitation of oxygen atoms. During huge magnetic storms oxygen atoms also undergo high energy excitation and produce pink light. Excited nitrogen(氮) atoms contribute bands of color varying from blue to violet. Viewed from outer space, auroras can be seen as dimly shining belts wrapped around each of the Earths magnetic poles. Each aurora hangs like a curtain of light stretching over the polar regions and into the higher latitudes. When the solar flares(闪光) that result in magnetic storms and aurora activity are very strong, aurora displays may extend as far as the southern regions of the United States.33. What is it that directly gives off aurora light?A. The Earths magnetic field.B. The solar winds magnetic field.C. The Earths ionized particles.D. The solar winds charged particles.34. What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?A. The appearance of auroras around the Earths poles.B. The periodic change in the display of auroras.C. The factors that cause the variety of colors in auroras.D. The covering area of auroras based on their colors.35. What can we infer from the passage?A. The magnetosphere increases the speed of particles from the solar wind.B. The color of greenish-white appears least frequently in an aurora display.C. Earths magnetic field contributes to the variety and difference of auroras colors.D. The strength of the solar flares has a positive effect on the extending distance of aurora.第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多于选项。HomeworkDo maths problems 15 through 25. State the different forms of the verbs on page 50 of your French workbook. Read pages 12 through 20 of the Shakespeare play, and dont forget to fill in the missing chemical symbols on the worksheet.Sound like a list of your homework for the next few nights or maybe even just for tonight? 36 Its your teachers way of evaluating how much you understand whats going on in class. And it helps strengthen important concepts. Here are some tips on how to do your homework.37 Its inviting to start with the easy things to get them out of the way. However, youll have the most energy and focus when you begin, so its best to use this mental power on the subjects that are most challenging. Later, when youre more tired, you can focus on the simpler things. If you get stuck on a problem, try to figure it out as well as you can but dont spend too much time on it because this can mess up your homework schedule for the rest of the night. 38 But dont pick someone whom youll be up all night chatting with, or youll never get it done! Most peoples attention spans arent very long, so take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you less productive than if you stop every so often. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most people.39 Once your homework is done, you can check over it if you have extra time. Be sure to put it safely away in your backpacktheres nothing worse than having a completed assignment that you cant find the next morning or that gets ruined by a careless brother or sister. 40 Now youre free to hang out. A. Luckily, you can do a few things to do less homework. B. Homework is a major part of going to school. C. No one is expected to stay long, and people have very different learning styles. D. If you need to, ask an adult for help or call or email a classmate for advice. E. But if youre really concentrating, wait until its a good time to stop. F. And no teacher still believes that “chewed by the dog” lineeven when its true! G. When you start your homework, deal with the hardest tasks first.第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节 完形填空（共20小题：每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。There is a big hospital across the street from where we live.
