Why? The reason is pretty simple: a big storm means a snow day and a day off! Similar to the snow day, many Chinese students have been given smog days in recent years. They have days off as a result of the smog.The best thing to do during a smog day is probably stay inside with the air freshener on. However, in the US, kids will happily play in the snow, make a snowman or go sliding (滑动). Adults will have a hot drink in their hands and watch their favorite movies on TV.The contrast (对比) between snow days and smog days highlights the problem of smog. It seems quite serious in China today. But in fact, the air condition in some developed countries was not much better in the mid-20th century.Because of the smog, the rate of asthma (哮喘) in Los Angeles, US, was twice as high as that in the surrounding regions in the 1940s. More than 4,000 people died within six days in London, UK, in 1952. It took thirty to fifty years on average to deal with the smog and bring back the clear blue sky in those big cities.It will be a long and tough process to solve the smog problem in China. We need to be patient and have confidence in our government. We can also take some simple steps in our daily life to help improve our environment.31. If its a snow day on weekdays, students in the New England region will _.A. only study in their classroomB. stay in bed the whole dayC. have a day off schoolD. stay with their parents32. What does the underlined word highlights in the third paragraph mean?A. 突出B. 提及C. 解决D. 解释33. Which is TRUE according to the last two paragraphs？A. The air problem used to cause great problems in some developed countries.B. How developed countries dealt with air problems in the mid-20th century.C. Developed countries can teach us to solve the smog problem in China.D. Its the governments duty to improve our environment in China.第 3 页 共 8 页Storyline(故事情节)： A group of clever dogs operate cars to work, play and party.

But some experts believe that when it comes to successfully communicating in English, non-native English speakers are actually better at it.Often you have a room full of people from different countries communicating in English and all understanding each other. And then suddenly the American or British person walks into the room and nobody can understand them, Chia Suan Chong, a UK-based communications culture expert, told the BBC.Chong said that happens because non-native speakers communicate more carefully. English speakers, on the other hand, often talk too fast, use jokes, slang (俚语) and make references (引用材料) to their country that others might not understand, Chong said.It is something that I keep in mind when talking to my Chinese colleagues (同事). I am careful to speak slowly and use words I know they will understand. Sometimes we confuse each other though.Once I told my colleague no dramas, which means no problem. She thought I was calling her a drama queen (咋呼女王), though, and got upset!But dont worry. Experts say that it is the native speakers fault if they cant understand you, not第 4 页共 8 页yours! English speakers with no other language often lack awareness (缺乏意识) of how to speak English internationally, said English language teacher Dale Coulter.The best way to avoid any trouble might be to ask for some patience. If you find it difficult to understand an English speaker, dont be afraid to ask them to slow down and speak clearly.38. What do we know from Chia Suan Chongs words?A. Native English speakers are the best at speaking the English language.B. Non-native English speakers are sometimes better at communicating in English.C. Its a good way for people from different countries to communicate in English.D. Its easy for non-native English speakers to speak English well.39. According to Chong, native English speakers are not fully understood because _.a. they are poor at communicationb. they dont like foreignersc. they talk too fastd. they use jokes and slange. they make references to their countryA. abcB. bcdC. cdeD. acd40. When the writer used the phrase no dramas, his colleague thought it meant _.A. youre welcomeB. you are too serious about small problemsC. you can play dramas wellD. you are not as beautiful as a queen41. When you find it difficult to understand native English speakers, _.A. you can ask them to slow downB. you can point out their impolitenessC. you should learn to speak like them.D. you should be more patientDAndrew Holleman, a 12-year-old boy, loved playing in the open land near his home. The land was wet and forested, and made a home for birds, other animals and many different plants.It made the perfect place for him to study and get to know the nature. He had seen some red-tail hawks, red foxes, wood turtles and other animals. He also found special native flowers.Suddenly it was announced that the empty land would be improved by a lot of houses on it. The plants would be removed, the animals would run away and most would probably die. Then the wet soil(土壤) would be covered with extra grounds.When he heard about the news, he was not happy. He was very worried that the land and water would be polluted.Andrew wrote down clearly all the research he had done about the area, and how the houses would affect the local environment. He sent letters to members of local government and television reporters. He also called on his neighbors to oppose the building of the houses.Although he was only 12 years old, he had the courage and wisdom of a person much older. Andrews teachers described him as gentle, shy and active. His classmates also admired how much he knew about local animals and plants, and the environment. Each day after school, Andrew went door-to-door, to ask the people to sign, who did not want the houses to be built. In only one month, he got the signatures of 250 people.In the end, the land remained a safe place for birds, animals and plants that belonged there. Andrew won many prizes for his brave and great work to stop the houses being built, and thus helpsave the environment.第 5 页共 8 页42.

This spring, I chose Yangzhou to be my first stop on a 16-month trip around China. It was like love at first sight. At 15, I bought a book that was a collection of poems of the Tang Dynasty. In it, I heard of Yangzhou for the first time. I was deeply attracted to a poem written by Li Bai Sailing to Yangzhou in March when blossoms curl (卷曲) like smoke on the river.Yangzhou, sitting for 2,500 years at the crossing of the Yangtze River and the 2,500-year-old Grand Canal (大运河), is one of 24 cities on the list of Historic and Cultural Cities in China. In the old town, there are many streets and houses. Its best to visit the city in spring. Spring paints the city in bright colors.Yangzhou has always been famous for its gardens. Among them, the Slender West Lake, one of the biggest attractions in the city, was my first stop. The park with its fantastic landscape and lots of history has enough to keep a tourist busy for the whole day. What a shame I simply could only afford half a day!My next stop was He Garden, one of the best protected gardens in Yangzhou. It was once owned by the family of He Zhidao during the Qing Dynasty. He Zhidao successfully brought Chinese and Western第 6 页共 8 页architectural (建筑的) features together.Yangzhou is also the starting point of the Grand Canal tour. Taking a boat along that part of the canal in Yangzhou, I was amazed at the liveliness of this ancient waterway and the citys history and culture.Luckily, my two-day trip to Yangzhou was filled with pleasure and wonder.
