People 17 and have fun in the streets of Australia and New Zealand. And of course, there are some celebrations in Ireland, too. What is Saint Patricks Day? Saint Patrick was a priest hundreds of years ago who made many Irish people 18 Christianity(基督教). He was actually born in Britain, but he has become an important 19 in Irish culture. There are many stories about him, 20 killing all the snakes in Ireland and speaking with Irish ancient kings. Saint Patricks Day is a religious holiday to remember 21 , but today it is also a day for celebrating Ireland and Irish culture in general. So 22 do people celebrate it? The most 23 way is to wear something green. Green is one of the colors of the Irish flag, and Ireland is also famous for its beautiful green countryside. If you forget to wear green, you may get pinched(捏、掐), 24 pinching people who forget to wear green is another Saint Patricks Day tradition. But perhaps the second most common way to celebrate, if you are 25 enough, is to drink lots and lots of Irish beer. Remember only adults can drink beer. Otherwise, you will be punished for being too young. 16AhabitBholidayCparadeDgame17AdrinkBsmokeCfightDswim18Atake in Bhand inCbring inDbelieve in19AsoldierBheroChunterDking20Afor exampleBalong withCinstead ofDsuch as21AherBhim Cthem Dit22Ahow Bwhy Cwhen Dwhere 23AinterestingBspecial Ccommon Dstrange24AthoughBsoCuntil Das 25AbraveBold Cstrong Dexcited 三、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分）阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳答案。 A1.

They belong to the farm, rounding up sheep and cattle. In the city they are just a kind of smelly, noisy trouble. If we must have dogs in the city, they need to be trained properly. There are homeless dogs and the barkers, there are also the chasers and the bounders (野狗). These terrible creatures rush up and almost knock you down before you have time to decide if they are greeting you or attacking you. Farm dogs earn their keep, but these city ones have too much from their owners. Their foods not just dog food. Its delicious dog food which the city dogs can eat happily from their doggy bowls. They also have a home-visit haircut which makes them different from common dogs and fur-lined baskets which they lie down and have a good sleep in. Sarah WillistonMay 28Dear Editor,Yes, Sarah Williston (May 21), we do give dogs a good life, but they pay us back generously, with affection and intelligence and good humour. Dogs are loyal and can be wonderful companions (同伴). They will play safely with the kids, or stay with patients and old people all day long. Dogs are increasingly being used in nursing homes and hospitals as a companion, and in some places, teachers even have a pet dog in the classroom. It is true that training a dog takes considerable time and effort, but it is worth it. Taking care of a dog builds character, as well as offering a lot of pleasure. Sincerely,John Bonavista29According to Sarah, which of the following dogs is worth keeping? ABarkers.BChasers.CFarm dogs.DHomeless dogs.30Both of the two people think that _. Adogs should have good foodBdogs should be properly trained Cdog owners spend too much on dogsDdog owners should play with kids31Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the two passages? ADogs can work well on farms. BCity dogs can have a home-visit hair-cut. CDogs may appear in the classroom in some places.DCity dogs cannot be trusted when they are left alone. CFlorida teen band The Garbage-Men is performing on the stage. The band has five members. They are Jack Berry, Ollie Gray, Harrison Paparatto, Austin Siegel and Evan Tucker. The five teens are making music from waste. The Garbage-Men bands instruments are made from recycled things. The guitars are boxes. A horn(号) is made from pipes. The keyboard is formed from old bottles.The band started about two years ago. Jack Berry who was in eighth grade at the time decided to make a playable, home-made guitar, after some trial-and-error(反复试验), he ended up building it from a cereal box, a yardstick and toothpicks. After Jack showed his creation to his friend Ollie Gray, Ollie had the idea to form a band using other home-made instruments as a way to improve recycling. “We want to show people there is more to recycling than throwing things away in the bin.” Jack, 16, told TFK. “You can actually reuse materials.”Last year, the Garbage-Men played at local events, including festivals, farmers markets. Typically, the teens set up on the street and performed popular songs from the 1960s, including classic Beatles and crowd favorite “Wipe Out”. They talked about recycling and offered tips for how to improve the environment. While they were performing, Jacks little brother Trent, 11, gave out leaflets about recycling and helped sell the bands CDs and other musical products. The band donated the money from sales to charity. They have raised more than $2,500 for Heifer International. The organization gives farm animals, seeds and agricultural training to people in poor countries to help end poverty and hunger. “Its a good, sustainable-development (持续发展的)charity,” Jack says, “By donating one animal, you help the whole community.”The band, all tenth graders, tries to play a show every week. Theyve also played on a Florida radio station. The teens hope to take their shows on the road by touring in other states. “Music is a really good way to get a good message across to people because its really close.” Jack says. Their instruments may be rubbish, but their message isnt. 32They are all members of the Garbage-Men band EXCEPT _.AOllie GrayBTrent BerryCAustin SiegelDJack Berry33Which of the following is the correct order of what the teens have done? The Garbage-Men played at local events. Jack Berry made a playable, home-made guitar. The band donated the money from sales to charity. Ollie decided to form a band using home-made instruments.ABCD34Whats the best title for the passage?AClassical music and rubbishBA special bandCHome-made musical instrumentsDA pioneer of country music35The five teens formed the band with the purpose of _.Amaking musical instruments from rubbish Bearning more money to help support their own familiesCasking more people to recycle daily rubbish around themDmaking their musical products known all around the worldDDo you sometimes find you want to eat chocolate or ice cream very much? Do you then make it but feel guilty about it later?The next time this happens to you, think back if you have had enough sleep over the last 3-5 days. Many adults and even teens have noticed that they crave midnight snacks when working or watching TV late.New research shows that lack of sleep could lead us to have an increased appetite (食欲)- especially for the unhealthy kind.Recently, researchers at the University of Chicago carried out a study that clearly shows that a lack of sleep actually changes our brain chemistry! Studies were done on two control groups over four days. Both groups had their food and sleep strictly controlled. All of them received three meals. The only difference was that one group was allowed to sleep for 7.5 hours while the other group slept for a little more than four hours.During the following visit, their sleep patterns were exchanged. After the last night of the session, the volunteers were offered as much food as they wanted to eat. Researchers noticed that in both sessions, people who sleep less ate on an average 300 calories more than those who had slept more. This was much more calories than what their bodies would need to make up for the three fewer hours of sleep.What Is Going On?The researchers then analyzed the chemicals (化学成分) in the blood of the people in the study. What they noticed was surprising. High levels of ghrelin (a chemical that makes us hungry) and lower levels of leptin (the chemical that tells the brain that it is satisfied) were found in the people with less sleep.Even more surprising was that this group had higher levels of endocannabinoids - the same chemical that is caused by drugs such as cannabis (大麻). The endocannabinoid system causes a craving for sugar and fatty foods and leads to overeating even when the body is not hungry. This study suggests that sleep changes help produce chemicals in the body that are similar to taking drugs!Furthermore, researchers noticed that food cravings continued for a long period of time, well after the lack of sleep. This increases the risk of over-eating for longer periods, leading to obesity (肥胖).Your body needs 7-8 hours of sleep each night. So, the next time you reach for a bag of chips or a slice of decadent cake, think of the amount of sleep you have had recently!36According to the passage, people want to eat more when they _. AworkBwatch TVCsleep lessDsleep more37The word crave in paragraph 2 most probably means _. AhopeBwantChateDdislike 38From the passage, we can learn that _. Apeople feel guilty about eating chocolate Bunhealthy food makes people sleep less and less Ca persons sleep has nothing to do with his/her appetite Da study about sleep and obesity was carried out at the University of Chicago39The chemical that makes us feel hungry is called _.
