13、n a big city. He worked very hard and enjoyed traveling in his holidays.He usually went to the seaside, but one year he saw 2 advertisement in a newspaper. “Enjoy country life. Spend a few weeks at West Hill Farm. Good food, Fresh air, Horse riding, Walking, Fishing, cheap and interesting.” “This 3

14、(sound) a good idea,” he thought. “Ill spend a month at West Hill Farm. I think I can enjoy horse riding, walking and fishing. Theyll make a change from 4 (sit) by the seaside and swimming.”He wrote to the farmer. In the letter he said that he would like to spend all of July there. Then on the first

15、 day of July, he left 5West Hill Farm.But four days later, he returned home.“What was wrong 6West Hill Farm?” his best friend, Ed, asked him. “Didnt you enjoy country life?” “Country life was very good,” Henry said. “But there was another problem.”“Oh. What?”“Well,” he said, “the first day I was the

16、re a sheep died, and we had roast mutton for dinner.”“Whats wrong with that?” Ed asked. “Fresh meat is the best.”“I know, but on the 7 (two) day a cow died, and we had roast beef for dinner.”“How 8 (luck) you are!”“You dont understand,” Henry said. “On the third day a pig died and we had roast pork

18、inding eggs, but every year it gets quite a bit worse for rabbits.And no, not because the kids like to pull their ears. The point is because of weather change, and some researchers found that rising temperatures are having harmful effects on at least five kinds of rabbits in the US.Take the Lower Ke

19、ys Marsh rabbit as an example. It lives on the islands, but it is seriously affected（影响）now by rising sea levels. According to the Center for Biological Diversity, an ocean level rise of 0.9-meter would destroy their living place completely.The snowshoe hare, on the other hand, has a color problem.

20、Most of these rabbits change their fur color from white in the wintertime to brown in the summer, which gives them better cover from predators (捕食者) . As the number of days with snow becoming less, more and more rabbits are being left in white fur during the days of both fall and spring, making them

21、 an easier mark for predators. American pikas or rock rabbits might be the first of these species to go die out because of the weather change. Pikas live high in the cool, damp mountains. As global temperatures rise, they would naturally move to higher ground but they already live on the mountaintop

22、s. They cant go any higher. The National Wildlife Federation reports that they might not be able to stand the new temperatures as their living place heats up.The volcano rabbit has the same problem. Recent studies have shown that their lower living place has already moved upward about 700 meters, bu

23、t there are not right plants for them to move higher, so they have to stay in the middle.Native to the US, pygmy rabbits weigh less than 1 pound and live in the American West. They are believed to be the smallest rabbits in the world. Their living places have been destroyed by development. They also

24、 live on winter cover, but lesser snowfall is leaving them unprotected.All of these give new meaning to dressing up in a huge rabbit costume（服装）this Easter.1Why does the writer mention Easter at the beginning of the passage?ATo raise the problem about rabbits.BTo remind people of Easter traditions.C

25、To show the importance of Easter Day.DTo discuss the relationship between Easter and rabbits.2Why can some rabbits be easily discovered by predators now?ABecause they have moved to the places with fewer plants.BBecause they can hardly live on color cover as before.CBecause they cant change their col

26、or into white.DBecause they are left to more skillful hunters.3What is the problem faced by rock rabbits and volcano rabbits?AThey are both affected by less snow.BNeither of them can find enough food.CNeither of them can move to higher place.DThey are both affected by rising sea levels.4What can you

27、 infer from the passage?APredators are more skillful than before.BThe weather is getting much hotter now.CThere will be no rabbit costume for Easter soon.DPeople should care more about the rabbit problem.B14、A TRIP TO SINGAPOREChild: Aged from 3 to 12根据表格所提供的信息选择最佳答案。1What can you see at Night Safar

32、6、Peter wondered why he didnt have many friends. The reason was he was always taking, never giving.One day Peter told Bill,“Id like to give a party on Saturday, Id like you to come and bring Martha, too.”“Thanks, Peter. Wed be happy to come.”“Perhaps youd like to bring your violin. You and Martha si

33、ng well together. Im sure everyone will want you to sing fw us.”That was how Peter began to plan his party. Next he asked another friend, Betty, to bring a cake.“You make the best cake in the world, Betty, and I like to eat your cake better than have one from the bakery(面包店) Peter invited a few othe

34、r friends to come to his party. He didnt forget to ask for something from each of them. He even asked Jim and Mary Jackson to let him give the party at their house! They agreed.The party was a big success. However, as the guests were leaving, they said“Thank you”to Bill and Martha for the music, Bet

35、ty for the cake, the Jacksons for the use of the house and to others for their hard work. To Peter they just said,“Thanks for the invitation.”1Peter asked Bill and Martha to bring_.Aa violin Bsome toys Ca cake2The party was held_.Aat Peters house Bin a large hall Cat Peters friends house3 liked Pete

At that time, the

37、y decided to stop speaking Spanish at home and only communicate in English. This was because they were now living in an English-speaking country. Now the Smith children are adults, and they sometimes travel to Spain to visit their family and friends. But they cannot communicate with them. Unfortunat

38、ely this is common. When people move to new countries, they often leave their own customs and mother language behind. This is a mistake because there are many advantages to knowing more than one language.If you can speak more than one language, you can communicate directly with more people around th

39、e world. You do not have to depend on others to talk for you, so youre more independent. People who know only one language must use others to help them communicate.Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions,

40、 vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a persons understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.Finally, having more multi-language speakers improves relationships between countries. If people from different countrie

41、s can communicate well, the world can become closer. Countries will then have more respect for each other and better understand each others problems.Its clear that knowing more than one language is really good. In fact, there are no disadvantages. It is very sad that many people dont try to learn an

42、other language. It is even worse when people let themselves forget their mother language and become silenced.1The passage begins with the experience of the Smith family in order to_.Adiscuss the need for teaching a new languageBintroduce the passages main characters to the readersCdescribe the advan

43、tages of moving to another countryDshow the problems of speaking only one language2The underlined phrase “multi-language speakers” (Paragraph 4) means “people who know _.”Atheir mother language Ba new languageCmore than one language Dbody language3According to the last paragraph, which of the follow

44、ing is the worst?ANot knowing another language.BForgetting ones mother language.CRefusing to learn another language.DFailing to communicate with others.4What is the passage mainly about?AThe advantages of learning other languages.BThe reasons why people come to America.CThe importance of learning En

45、glishDHow to learn another languageF18、In fact, at the time they seemed to be ordinary events, but now everything seems different. I had spent 10 years away from the place where I was born. Even though I made the decision to leave my country by myself, I miss a lot of things now. The person that bro

46、ught me the happiest memories is my best friend. She is the greatest person in the world, and I am not exaggerating(吹嘘). She is kind, funny,polite,and always willing to listen,and has been a great friend. I always recall(回想)events from our childhood. I think about the school where we met in the firs

47、t grade and went on until the 5thgrade. I think about the talks we had and the things we did together. If someone wants me to describe our friendship, Id say we have been close friends for 17 years and we never got angry with each other. Its amazing, isnt it? I havent been able to do that with anybo

48、dy else. Sometimes I even feel guilty(有罪的). I miss her more than my own brothers and sisters. And of course besides those memories, my kids are number one in my life. I have plenty of beautiful memories with them, especially when they were born, which also turned out to be a sad moment for both of t

49、hem, because they were premature babies(早产儿). Anyone, who has had an experience with a premature baby, can_what I mean.1How does the writer feel about her best friend?AShe is patient and funBShe is famous in the worldCshe is more important than her sonsDThey have been best friends and lived close.2How long has t
