She climbed out of bed and stood on a chair by the shelf. Her mothers Mr. Fix-It Book was on the top shelf. Cassie stepped down quietly. She read the book quickly until she found the page she was looking for, and then began to read carefully. Next, Cassie opened a box in the kitchen and picked out the tools she needed a hammer, a wrench, and several small things. It was no easy job for her to do the repair, and she tried several times. Finally, the water tap was in pieces. One by one, she carefully laid them out on the table. That way she would know how they went back. While this was going on, her cat walked over to watch what she was doing.Cassie worked late into the night. At one point, she thought she was done. Oops!

From the passage we know that Cassie is a(n)_girl.AfunnyBableChonestDlazyAlthough shes quite young, Drew Barrymore can be a Hollywood legend (传奇). She was born on February 22, 1975, in California. Being from a family that produced great actors, she quickly found her way into the spotlight (聚光灯).When she was 11 months old, she made her first advertisement on TV. She made her first movie at the age of 2. Five years later, she acted Gertie in Steven Spielbergs famous film E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial (1982).However, it wasnt all roses and sunshine when Barrymore was growing up. She was drinking wine by the time she was 9, smoking marijuana (大麻) at 10.Most kid stars in Hollywood fail to become stars as adults. And most of the time, once theyre out of the spotlight, they stay out. But Drew Barrymore doesnt.As she was growing older, Barrymore got to learn that life is more meaningful than dangerous actions in the films. She started to build a career in 1997. She has made many successful films since then, including Charlies Angels (2000) and 50 First Dates (2004).“In my life, there is darkness and drama, and I m trying my best. I just want to challenge myself and prove that I can do more.”In fact, if you dont know herdisorderedchildhood, you might find it hard to believe shes such a sweet person now. Like many of the characters she plays in her comedy, Drew is easy-going and laughs a lot. In 2007, she was on the cover of People magazines 100 Most Beautiful People issue.“Life is very interesting in the end, some of your greatest pains, become your greatest strengths,” Drew said.31 .

Which is the correct order of Drew Barrymores life?She made the film Charlies Angels.She was on the cover of People magazines 100 Most Beautiful People issue.She started to drink wine and smoke marijuana.She acted Gertie in Steven Spielbergs famous film E.T.the Extra- Terrestrial.ABCD34 . Which of the following chart can best describe Drew Barrymores career (till 2007)?ABCDNow, it may be difficult to predict the future, but many people believe that we will live on Mars by the year 2100. Our own planet, Earth, is becoming more and more crowed and polluted. Well, what problems will we need to solve before we prepare to go to Mars?First of all, transport should be much better. At present, humans need to spend months going to Mars by spaceship. However, by 2100, spaceship can travel at half the speed of light. It might take us two or three days to get there!Secondly, humans need food, water and air to live. Scientists should develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produce the food, water and air that we need. However, there is no answer for all the problems now.There is also a problem for us to live on Mars. Mars attracts us much less than the Earth does. This will be dangerous because we could easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space there. We will have to wear special shoes to make ourselves heavier.In some ways, life on Mars may not be better than that on the earth today. Food will not be the same meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as they are today. Also, space travel will probably make many people feel very uncomfortable.35 . So far, how long will it take us from the earth to Mars by spaceship?ATwo or three days.BA few days.CA few months.DA few years.36 . According to the passage, which of the following is wrong?AA special plant which can produce water, air and food should be needed on Mars.BWe may go to Mars when transport is much better and faster.CWe can jump higher than on the earth on Mars.DFood on Mars will be much better to eat.37 . Which looks like life on Mars according to the passage?AWe can wear the shoes that we like to wear.BWe can drink easily and conveniently.CWe can walk faster than on the earth.DWe can boil food to eat.38 . Why do we want to live on Mars?ALife on Mars is more interesting than that on the earth.BThe earth is becoming dirty and crowded.CThe journey to Mars is very interesting.DThe scientists want us to do that.It was Christmas Eve. When everyone went to bed, Bunny couldnt fall asleep. He still couldnt think of what he wanted as a special Christmas present. He wondered how Santa Father Christmas would know what to bring him if he didnt know himself.As he was sitting up in bed, Bunny heard a big noise on the roof(屋顶) and a sound downstairs. It was Santa Claus, he realized. Bunny jumped out of bed and ran down the hall to the stairs. He hoped to take a look at the old man before Santa left for his next stop.By the time Bunny was at the bottom of the stairs, everything was silent again. Lots of presents were put under the Christmas tree, but Santa was gone. A little disappointed(失望的), Bunny turned to climb back upstairs when he heard a cry.“Hello,” said Bunny. “Is somebody there?”He was answered by another cry. Bunny looked around the big pile of presents to see what was making the noise. Right under the tree was a funny looking brown animal with big feet and sad eyes. It also had antlers(鹿角) on its head. Bunny almost mistook it for a dog. “Are you a reindeer?” asked Bunny.“Yes,” replied the brown animal with antlers. “My name is Ralph.”“And you were pulling Santas sled(雪橇)?”“I was until I got air-sick,” replied Ralph. “Santa had to leave me here and go on with the other seven reindeer.”“Isnt it a bit unusual for a reindeer to get air-sick? I mean, isnt flying what reindeer are famous for?”“Not me, Im afraid. It makes me scared. I always feel sick when it comes to flying,” replied Ralph. “But everyone wanted me to pull Santas sled, so when it was my turn I gave it a try. Im afraid I just wasnt cut out for the job. Now Im stuck here and I dont know how to get back to the North Pole.”“Well, if you like, you can stay with us as a friend,” said Bunny. As he made the offer, Bunny suddenly realized the special present he wanted from Santa was a new friend!39 . The underlined phrase “cut out” probably means .AsuitableBfamousCreadyDbad40 . What can we learn from the article?ARalph is a brown dog with antlers.BRalph is afraid of flying in the air.CBunny got a sled as a Christmas present.DBunny sent Ralph back to the North Pole.41 .

Mayme Clayton collected books, magazines and letters written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton, thought her collection was important. Unlike most books, these were rare and hard to find. They were written by writers who helped shape African American culture. One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish a book. Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons collection. No one else owns a copy signed by Phillis Wheatley.
