A
Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the color of most growing plants.
Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet ripe(成熟的) or finished. For example, a greenhorn is someone who has no experience, who is new to a situation. In the fifteenth century, a greenhorn was a young cow or ox whose horns(角) had not yet developed. A century or so later, a greenhorn was for a soldier who had not yet had any experience in battle. By the eighteenth century, a greenhorn had the meaning it has today—a person who is new to a job.
Someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from the early nineteen hundreds. A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.
The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural scientists who had green thumbs.

B had done C. do
Green is also the color used to describe the powerful feeling, jealousy(嫉妒). The green-eyed monster is not a frightening creature from outer space. It is an expression used about four hundred years ago by British writer William Shakespeare in his play Othello. It describes the unpleasant feeling a person has when someone has something he wants to get. A young man may suffer from the green-eyed monster if his girlfriend begins going out with someone else. Or, that green-eyed monster may affect your friend if you get a pay rise and he does not.
16. What do people really mean when they say someone has a green thumb? A. His thumb is green in color.
B. His garden is greener than others’ garden. C. He doesn’t have any working experience. D. He’s good at growing plants.
17. According to the passage, when can a young man most probably suffer from the green-eyed monster?
A. When he is going out with his girlfriend. B. When his friends have better jobs than him. C. When his girlfriend is shopping with her friends. D. When his friends lose their new jobs. 18. How does the writer develop this passage? A. By analyzing and listing examples. B. By explaining and giving numbers.
C. By telling stories and comparing different facts. D. By informing and providing scientific discoveries.
B
Almost five years ago, I announced to my loved ones I was to become a Mrs. Naturally，I then began to wonder about the perfect wedding dress, hoping that it would fit me. Even at the age of 23, I had gone through my share of dieting.
I am an emotional eater and I knew that at 5 feet 5 inches tall and 180 pounds, I wasn’t at my healthiest. My mother had been doing Weight Watchers for some time and was rapidly seeing results without starving herself. She shared her books with me and explained the program: estimate your daily target based on your weight and other factors, write down everything you eat and move! The longer I stuck to it, the more I noticed a difference in the way I enjoyed food. I soon began to like eating fruits and vegetables for snacks instead of chocolate bars and chips. My mother and I went on walks together and kept each other in check. Unsurprisingly, I lost twenty pounds soon and looked amazing in my wedding dress.

I buy healthy foods, replace ice cream and faithfully keep a food journal. I exercised and take evening walks. Because I have a hard time reaching for something healthy by myself, I bought a Weight Watchers cookbook and use it to prepare our meals. I use small plates and bowls to trick myself into believing there is more food than the serving size.
It’s been hard to discipline myself not to eat badly. But when I find myself having a desire for strawberries instead of chocolate, I know it’s all worthwhile. 19.The author successfully lost twenty pounds ____________． A. with the help of her mother B. by only eating fruits and vegetables C. by walking and eating less every day D. under her doctor’s direction
20.What is the third paragraph mainly about？ A. How to prepare healthy food．
B. The role exercise plays in keeping fit．
C. What the author does to keep healthy． D. The ways of eating less food． 21. We know from the last paragraph that the author ____________．
A. likes strawberries most B. has formed healthy eating habits C. finds keeping a healthy diet easy
D. can’t resist chocolate

My friend Jim and I finally decided to spend our 14 days off in the eastern country. We stayed with a local family, which made it possible for us to share a real life experience with the locals and in return bring ourselves a richer experience of the local culture and tradition.
With one of our local tour leaders, we started one of the trips to the nearby town . As we were passing elephants, we stopped , confused by the fact that these huge animals were tied(栓) only by a small rope(绳子) to their front legs. It was obvious that these elephants could, at any time, break away from the ropes they were tied by but for some reason, they did not. My friend went up to the trainer and asked why these beautiful animals just stood there and never tried to get away. ―Well,‖ he said, ―When they were young and much smaller we used the same size rope to tie them and at that age, it was enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are used to believing that they can not break away. They believe that the rope can hold them, so they never try to break free. We were amazed. These animals could at any time break away from their ropes but just because they believed they couldn’t, they just stayed where they were.
Like the elephants, how many of us go through life believing that we can not do something, simply because we couldn’t do it before ? How many of us have avoided trying

Here are some ways to help you have a happier and more successful life:
26 Instead of saying, \"Why is this happening to me?\" you say, \"What can I learn from this trouble?\" Trust that anything difficult in life is temporary(临时的). Then life will get better. 27 Without life's challenges, we would never know what we are truly made of. Therefore, we become stronger and more confident．
28 It actually is very useful! Don't say it doesn't work until you've tried it. We all have a blueprint for our lives and making plans will help us realize it．
Take care of people around you honestly． 29 If you truly care about your friends, family or someone else, they'll be with you through any difficulties because they know you care about them. Refuse to compare your progress with others. It will only damage your confidence. Everyone is different in their lives. If you understand that you’re what you are like, then it won't matter what others are doing. You are the only one in the world with special talents, skills and so on． 30

A．Pay attention to your imagination．
B．The power of making plans cannot be ignored(忽略）． C．Try to learn from the difficult situations you meet． D．Everything you've experienced has been in preparation．
E．There is no one like you, so how can you compare yourself to others? F．It is through the hardest times that we learn what we can do． G．People can feel whether you're honest or not.

High school is a golden time in one's life with great fun and fond memories. In the school, my school friends and I work hard together. I'll never forget those days when we enjoyed ourselves in all kinds of activities, such as the sports meeting, Science Week and Art Festival. Meanwhile, we have developed our abilities and harvested
valuable friendships. More importantly, I am lucky to have met many lovely teachers, who teach me not only how to study, but also how to be a good person in society. As a student of senior high school,I feel proud of my school.
I'd like to express my gratitude to my teachers and parents，with whose help I've grown up，and made great progress in every way.
