At least it was back in 1992 when I traveled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare. Yet since my arrival in Beijing last year, Ive found the opposite is true. There are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, its the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors-silver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.Its fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks(人行道). Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars just cant provide.Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture, I decided to buy a bicycle. Great weather accompanied my great buy. I immediately jumped up on my bicycle seat and started home.My first ride home was orderly (守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a “pack” of bikers while cars on the streets came running swiftly out of nowhere at times. I didnt want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was a lot like crossing a major highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.8. According to the author, why are bicycles still popular in China today?A. Because they are traditional and safe.B. Because they are convenient and inexpensive.C. Because they are colorful and available.D. Because they are fast and environment friendly.9. The author decided to buy a bicycle because he intended_.A. to ride it for fun B. to use it for transportC. to experience local culture D. to improve his riding skills10. How did the author feel about his street crossing?A. It was boring. B. It was difficult.C. It was lively. D. It was wonderful.11. Which of the following best describes the authors biking experience?A. The author enjoyed showing off his biking skills.B. The author was annoyed by the air while riding.C. The author was praised by the other bikers.D. The author took great pleasure in biking.DDo you like to eat out? Do you like to eat quickly? Do you like inexpensive food? Some people like to go fast-food restaurants for these reasons . In the past, people usually went to diners for these reasons. In fact, many people in the States still go to diners today for the same reason.A man named Walter Scott had the first “diner” in 1872. it wasnt really a diner. It was only a food cart. People on the street walked up to the cart to buy food. These carts served late-night workers who wanted a cup of coffee and a late-night meal. The meal was a sandwich or boiled eggs. In 1887, Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come inside. However, they did not sit down. Later, people built diners with counters and stools, and people sat down while they ate.Before long, many diners stayed open around the clock. In other words, people were able to eat in a diner at any time. Diners changed in other ways, too. The original menu of sandwiches and coffee became bigger. It included soup, favorite dishes, and a breakfast menu. In addition, diners soon became permanent buildings. They were no longer carts on wheels.Diners today look similar to the diners of the early 1900s. They are usually buildings with large windows. Inside, the diners have shining counters with stools, booths, and tables and chairs. People can eat all three meals in a modern diner.Today, many people eat in fast-food restaurants such as McDonalds and Burger King. However, the diner remains an American tradition, and thousands of people still enjoy eating there. It was popular a century ago, and it is still popular today.12. What meals did the first diners serve?A. Only breakfast.B. Only lunch.C. Only night-meals.D. All of the above.13. According to paragraph 3, diners changed in _.A. two waysB. three waysC. four waysD. five ways14. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Diners existed before fast-food restaurants.B. The menu included more food than sandwiches and coffee.C. Burger King is a fast-food restaurant.D. Sandwiches became bigger.15. The main idea of the passage is _.A. the diner is a traditional, popular place to eat in the United StatesB. Samuel Jones built the first diner big enough to allow the customers to come insideC. American diners serve many types of food 24 hours a day to their customersD. diners are different from fast-food restaurants in many ways.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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Learning begins earlyParents, even more than care centers and good schools, help children develop skills. Here are some measures you can take:16 They grow well when they have parents or other caregivers who are loving and dependable. Small children need attention, encouragement and hugs. Children who feel loved are more likely to be confident.17 Children imitate what they see others do and what they hear and say. When parents exercise and eat nourishing food, children are more likely to do so. When parents treat others with respect, their children probably will, too. If parents share things, their children will learn to be thoughtful of others feelings.Have a positive(积极的) attitude toward learning and toward school. 18 Parents need to encourage this curiosity（好奇心）if children are to keep it. Showing interest in what children do helps to make them proud of their achievements. Children also become excited about school when their parents show excitement. As your child approaches kindergarten, talk to him about school. Talk about the exciting activities in kindergarten, such as going on field trips and making fun art projects.Be positive and encouraging. 19 Smiles and encouragement go much further to shape good behavior than punishment.20 Young children need to be closely watched. But they learn to be independent and to develop confidence by doing tasks such as dressing themselves and putting their toys away. Its also important to let them make choices, rather than deciding everything for them. Remember to give them a choice only when there really is one.A. Set a good example.B. Provide opportunities for repetition.C. Praise your child for a job well done.D. Show that you care about your children.E. Talk to your children, beginning at birth.F. Let children do many things by themselves.G. Children come into this world with a powerful need to discover and explore.第二部分：英语知识运用第一节：完形填空（共20题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后所给各题的四个选项 A、B、C、D中选出能填入相应空白处的最佳选项。Ella Fant was a middle-aged lady who lived with her only son John in a small house.
