After the ants were in the glass farm, they started to make tunnels(地道). I was amazed that each one knew exactly what to do. Each had its own job.On the fifth day a tragedy(悲剧) happened. I put my face so close to the glass farm that I knocked it over. All the tunnels fell down. Although the ants remained alive after their earthquake, one by one began to die. I was scared as I watched them give up building their tunnels to carry the bodies to a corner the farm. My mother said that the ants were dying of sadness. They simply could not stand that their tunnels were gone.Although much time has passed, I still think of that ant farm. Mom had hoped it would teach me about the natural world, but it taught me much more.Over the years, I came to realize the importance of teamwork. Working together, the ants were able to make an amazing world for themselves. I also learned that they should be admired for their hard work.But there was an even larger lesson that I did not realize until recently: Adversity(逆境) is a natural part of life, and must be accepted. Unlike the ants, we cannot give up when we are sad. We have to realize that if a tunnel is gone, we must build another.Giving up, I say, is not a good choice.（1）What did the writers family do for him when he was seven?A . They built a farm of ants.B . They bought a few ants.C . They caught a lot of ants.D . They found an ant city.（2）Which statement is WRONG according to the passage?A . The writer knocked the glass box over because he put his face so close to the glass farm.B . The ants didnt die one by one after the tunnels were destroyed.C . Like people, teamwork is very important for the ants.D . Giving up isnt a good way when we meet trouble.（3）Among the following events, which one happened first?A . All the tunnels fell down.B . The ants died one by one.C . The ants got into the glass box.D . The ants began making tunnels.（4）What did the writer learn from the ant tragedy a few years later?A . Working together is useless.B . Teamwork is important.C . He cant accept adversity.D . Working alone is amazing.（5）What is the best title for the passage?A . Ants Fear AdversityB . My Family and AntsC . Giving Up in AdversityD . Dont give up anytime19. （8分）阅读理解 Friends are important to the children. Research shows that children who have no friends can suffer from difficulties later in life. Friendship provides children with more than just fun. By making friends, children learn how to get in touch with others and solve problems. Having friends even does good to childrens study for they can help each other after class.If parents care about their children whether they have made many friends, what matters is that the child is comfortable and happy with his friends. Parents need to understand the steps children take in building friendships.First of all, be a friend of your childs. Good friendships start at home. Children begin to develop the necessary ability to go out and meet others through getting on with their parents. Greet the child warmly and let him know you are glad to see him. Children learn a lot from how their parents stay with them and other people.Teach children how to solve conflicts. Being able to work out conflicts is an important skill in getting along with others. If parents know the children have a conflict, let them work it out on their own. Only step in if it is really necessary, for example, an argument is getting physical.Give children chances to practise staying together. Make children play games that require teamwork and group problem-solving skills. For example, races are fun and provide plenty of practice in teamwork. In what way didnt you work well together? What might you do differently next time? For these ideas, read books such as Cooperative Sports and Games Book by Terry Orlick, and Team Building Activities for Every Group by Alanna Jones.Encourage children to express thanks to others. Parents can encourage children to do this by setting examples for them.（1）According to the article, if one child has no friend, he will . A . have some troubles in the futureB . worry about everything in the futureC . not know the importance of making friendsD . not find anybody to help him（2）Friendships can be helpful to children EXCEPT . A . providing a lot of funB . getting in touch with othersC . solving problemsD . helping others to cheat in the exams（3）The writers purpose of writing the article is to . A . tell what parents should do to help children make friendsB . show having friends even does good to childrens study during the classesC . tell parents to understand the steps of childrens friendshipsD . show how important friendships are to children（4）When children have a conflict, parents should . A . let them fight with each other until they find who the winner isB . do nothing to the children and believe their abilitiesC . let them work it out by themselves and help if necessaryD . talk with them and try to find good ways to let them stay together20. （10分）阅读理解It was a cold winter day. A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth (收费站). “Im paying for myself, and for the six cars behind me,” she said with a smile, handing over seven tickets. One after another, the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed, “Some lady up ahead already paid your fare.”It turned out that the woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friends refrigerator: “Practice random(不经意的) kindness and senseless acts of beauty.” The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down.Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home. When it stayed on her mind for days, she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down. “I thought it was beautiful,” she said, explaining why shed taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters, “like a message from above.” Her husband, Frank, liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students, one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson, a local news reporter. Alice put it in the newspaper, admitting(承认) that though she liked it, she didnt know where it came from or what it really meant.Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Marin. It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days.“Heres the idea,” Anne says. “Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby(破败的) schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says, “Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can.”The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later. Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act. Let it be yours!（1）Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her? A . She knew the car drivers well.B . She wanted to show kindness.C . She hoped to please others.D . She had seven tickets.（2）Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she _. A . thought it was beautifully writtenB . wanted to know what it really meantC . decided to write it on a warehouse wallD . wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom（3）Who came up with the phrase according to the passage?

Kindness and violence can change the world.B . Kindness and violence can affect ones behavior.C . Kindness and violence can reproduce themselves.D . Kindness and violence can shape ones character.（5）What can we infer from the last paragraph? A . People should practice random kindness to those in need.B . People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others.C . People should practice random kindness to strangers they meet.D . People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver.四、 词汇应用。根据句子意思,用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当 (共10题；共28分)21. （10分） English is one of my s_at school. I like it very much.
