You can probably all ride a bike well. I’m an exception (例外).
I started riding a bike when I was three. It was a tiny toy bike with four wheels. I loved it very much and rode it every day.
When I was 5, my cousin gave me a pink bike. It was a true bicycle with just two wheels! At the time, my parents were too busy to teach me how to ride it. So I had to learn to ride by myself. I practiced hard on weekends and during vacations, although I still didn’t know how to make turns. One summer vacation, I borrowed an old bike and rode it with my friends on a country road. We sang and practiced our riding skills. Suddenly, a small boy ran into the road. I was shocked and couldn’t control the bike at all. My bike ran into the boy and he fell. He didn’t get very seriously hurt, but his grandma was too angry to accept my apology. My cousin appeared five minutes later and saved me from the mess. But the experience frightened me: I no longer dared to ride a bike.
Then, last year, free bikes were offered to children. My mother tried to teach me how to ride. But the traffic made me so nervous that I had to ride really slowly. But I’m not going to give up.
One day, believe me; you’d see me riding a bike in a big street. 1. What kind of bike did the writer have when he was five?

A. His father B. His mother C. His brother D. No one. 3. Who did the writer hit on the road?
A. A small girl. B. A small boy. C. An old man. D. An old woman. 4. Why did the writer say “I no longer dared to ride a bike”? A. Because his parents didn’t allow him to ride a bike. B. Because he didn’t have bikes any longer.
C. Because he hit a small boy and was very frightened.
D. Because he was afraid of that small boy’s grandma. 5. What is the best title of the passage?

The students' answers ranged from 20 g to 500 g. \"It does not matter on the weight itself. It depends on how long you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK.

Do you laugh every day? Most people do. Scientists say that people laugh about 17 times a day. That is a lot of laughter.
In India, there are hundreds of laughter clubs. The people in these clubs get together every morning. First they stretch their hands above their heads. Then they pretend to laugh. Soon everyone is laughing naturally. People say they feel good after laughing together.
Scientists believe that laughter is good for you. Why? For one thing, laughter is good exercise. When you laugh, you exercise many muscles in your body.

Do you know why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their special colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.
Some birds like eating locusts (蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops(庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.
If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters (猎人). This is because they have the colors much like the trees.
Have you ever noticed an even stranger act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid (液体)when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over (散开), its enemies (敌人)cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.
( )11.From the passage we learn that locusts________. A. are small animals B. are easily found by birds
C. are dangerous to their enemies
D. change their colors to protect themselves
( )12.How can pests with different colors from plants keep out of danger? A. They run away quickly.
B. They have the colors much like their enemies. C. They hide themselves by day and appear at night. D. They have to move quietly.

A. Because it is very and strong.
B. Because the liquid it sends out can help it escape from its enemies. C. Because the liquid it sends out can kill its enemies. D. Because it swims faster than any other fish.

In 1993 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the filmmaker Walt Disney. He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney’s cartoon(动画片) film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash’s voice, he said ”Stop! That’s our duck!”
The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the firm The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat(水上住家) and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight – minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy(贪婪的), and because he lost his temper (发脾气) very quickly. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey’s eight nephews(侄子). Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probably because he wasn’t a goody-goody like Mickey.
In the 1930S, ‘ 40s and ‘ 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared – there were no more new cartoons.
Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today’s children can still see the old cartoons on television and hear that famous voice.
( )16. Who made Donald Duck film? ______ A. Mickey Mouse. B. Clarence Nash. C. Walt Disney. D. Pluto.
( )17. When was the first Donald Duck film made? ______ A. In 1933. B. In 1934. C. In 1966. D. In 1930.
( )18. Who was Clarence Nash? ______
A. A cartoonist. B. Donald Duck’s voice. C. A film-maker. D. A film star.
( )19. Where do today’s children see Donald Duck ? ______ A. In new film. B. At the cinema. C. On television. D. At concerts.
( )20. The underlined word ”audience” in the second paragraph means______ . A. reads B. formal interview
C. law freedom D. the people who watch a film at a cinema 五.写作

Many places in the world need more fresh water(淡水). Every country is trying to find ways to turn salt water into fresh.
Why aren't there many factories like the Symi factory?
In some places, the sun isn't hot enough, or it doesn't shine every day. In these places other ways to heating(加热) sea water can be used. These ways cost more money, but they work faster than the sun. By boiling(煮沸) sea water with high heat,a lot of fresh water can be made quickly. But heating is not the only way to get fresh water from salt water. Other ways are tried. One way is freezing(冷冻). The fresh part of salt water freezes first. To get fresh water, the pieces of ice are taken out.
Which way is best? The one that gives the most water for the least money. It may be a different way for each place.
Symi's way seems very good for small, hot places. It doesn't make very much water at a time. But the factory is easy to build and cost little.

Most people have flown a kite or have seen one ride and dip(下降) in strong spring wind. Not so many people know that kites were first made in China thousands of years ago. The ancient Chinese were making and flying kites even before they were writing.
A long time ago, the Chinese made kites to use in wars. They would fly these war kites in the dark. The kites were fixed so that they made strange sounds. Men who were at war with them would hear these sounds and run away. They thought those strange sounds were made by gods in the sky.
The ancient Chinese also flew kites to bring good luck and to make their crops(农作物) grow well. Sometimes they tied long strings and hooks(钩) to their kites. Then they would fly the kites over water, letting the hooks hang down to catch fish.
The Chinese use sticks, strings(线) and paper to make their kites. Some of these kites look like animals or trees and some look like birds. 56. Which of the following is NOT true? A. Kites were first made in China. B. Kites were flown for good luck.

The undersea world is very beautiful. Now more and more people want to dive in the water to find the secret there. Scuba diving is a new sport today. It can take you into a wonderful undersea world.
You will find many strange animals in the sea. Some are as large out light in the dark and some have sharp teeth.
During the day, there is enough light. Here, under the sea, everything is blue and green.
When fish swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands. When you have bottles of air on your back, you can stay in deep water for a long time. However, you can’t dive too deep. And you must be very careful when you dive in deep water.
The deep sea is not an easy place to live in. It’s cold, and it’s dark, too. The deeper it is, the less sunlight there is. At about 3,000 feet, there is no light at all. It is very dark in the sea. Many fishes have no eyes. Some have big eyes. A few have eyes on one side.
Besides(除了) the cold and the darkness, deep-sea animals face a third danger—other animals. Animals eat! They must find food to eat. Many animals eat plants. However, some animals eat meat.

The first robots were invented in the 1920s. Robots have appeared in many American films. In some films, they are stronger, faster and cleverer than people.
In real life, robots are mainly used in factories. They do some dangerous and difficult jobs for humans.
Robots also helped disabled people, for example, blind people. Today many blind people have a guide(向导) dog to help them. In the future, guide dogs might be robot dogs.
One kind of robot guide dog has wheels. It moves in front of the owner. It is very clever. It knows the speed of its owner’s walk. The owner wears a special belt(带子). This belt sends instructions to the owner from the dog, such as “Stop here”, “Turn left” or “Turn right”. In the United States, another kind of robot helps disabled people to take care of themselves in their daily life. The robot hears the sound of its owner’s voice. It follows instructions such as “Turn the page” or “Make a cup of coffee”.
Robots are also used in American hospitals. They can do simple jobs. At one hospital, for example, a robot takes meals from the kitchen to patients’ rooms. It never gets lost because this robot has a map of the hospital in its computer memory.
Though robots can help people in many different ways, they will never take the place of humans. 6.From the passage, we know robots cannot be ______.
A. dangerous animals B.factory workers C.guide dogs D.hospital helpers 7.A robot guide dog ______.

For most people, the word “fashion(时尚)” means “clothes”. But people may ask the question, “What clothes are in fashion?” And they use the adjective “fashionable” in the same way, “”She was wearing a fashionable coat.” “His shirt was really a fashionable colour.”
But of course there are fashions in many things, not only in clothes. There are fashions in holidays, in restaurants, in films and books. There are even fashions in school subjects, jobs… and in languages.
Fashions change as time goes. If you look at pictures of people or things from the past, you will see that fashions have always changed. An English house of 1750 was different from one of 1650.
A fashionable man in 1780 looked very different from his grandson in 1860.
Today fashions change very quickly. Some of this is natural. We hear about things much more quickly than in the past. Newspapers, radios, telephones and television send information from one country to another in a few hours.
New fashions mean that people will buy new things, so you see there is money in fashions. 51. From this passage we know that “fashion” means ________________. A. clothes B. many things C. most of the popular things D. everything 52. Which of the following things is fashionable today? A. Surfing on the Internet.
B. Having a family dinner on New Year’s Day. C. Learning to sing songs on the radio. D. Doing morning exercises at school.
53. Today fashions change very quickly because ____________. A. people read newspapers every day
B. radios send information from one country to another C. new things that people like are often shown on TV D. people quickly learn what is happening in the world
54. “There is money in fashion” means _______________. A. clothes are expensive B. money comes from fashion
C. people like new things D. there are no fashions without money 55. The best title for the passage is ______________. A. Fashions B. Fashion Means Money
C. Fashion Means Clothes D. A Fashionable Colour (C)
Long, long ago people made fires from lightening(闪电). But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightening.

The train started moving. It was packed with people of all ages. Most of them were working men and women and young college boys and girls. Near the window sat an old man with his son, who looked about thirty years old.
As the train moved, the son was filled with joy because he was very excited at the scenery(景色) outside. He said in a high voice, “See Dad, the green trees and the scenery are very
beautiful!” It made the other people feel very strange. Everyone started talking in a low voice about the old man’s son. Suddenly, it started raining. Raindrops fell on the travelers through the opened window. Seeing the rain, the old man’s son said happily, “See Dad, how beautiful the rain is!” Hearing these words, a young lady became angry with the man, as the raindrops were dropping on her new clothes. She couldn’t help shouting at the noisy son and his father.
“Can’t you see it is raining? You! Old man! If your son is not feeling well, get him to a mental hospital(精神病院) quickly and please don’t disturb(干扰) us any more!” The old man’s face turned slightly red and then in a low voice, he replied, “We are on the way back from hospital.

Do you carry your mobile phone around ? Don’t do it again. Leave it at a place where you can hear it ringing. In this way you make sure that you at least get up and walk towards it . This might sound silly but I really mean it . You need a reason to keep yourself going.
Life today has become so easy . All we have to do is to push a button here and push a button there. The only things that get any exercise at all are our fingers . According to Darwin , when we often use a part of the body , it develops a lot , but if a part is not used at all , it will become smaller and smaller and finally disappear.
One example is the long neck of the giraffe . When the giraffe reached higher and higher for the leaves on the top of a tree , its neck appeared to become longer and longer . And the other example is the tails in human beings . They disappeared because they were not used for a long time .
Now if Darwin’s idea is true , man in the future is likely to have just a huge head , a few fingers and maybe some other parts of the body that are also being used . That is why I say that you have to make yourself move about.
What I would suggest is that at home or school or in your office , leave the mobile phone lying about so that you can hear it ring , but can’t just reach into your pocket and answer it . Make sure you have to stand up and walk a few steps before you can pick it up.
51. Where does the writer suggest you put your mobile phone ?
A. in your hand B. At a place where it’s difficult to reach C. In your pocket D. At a place where you can hear it ringing
52. According to the writer , what are the only parts of man’s body that can get exercise in modern life ?
A. The ears B. The legs C. The fingers D. The arms 53. Which of the following supports Darwin’s idea ? A. The tail of the dog B. The neck of the giraffe
C. The leaves on the top of a tree D. The fingers of human beings .
54. What will a man be like in the future , according to the writer , if Darwin’s idea is true ? A. He will have a huge body and a big head .
B. He will mainly have a huge head and a few fingers . C. He will be strong and very clever D. he will be too weak to push a button.
55. What’s the main idea of the passage ?
A. Man should try to do any possible exercise in modern life
B. Man should make good use of modern technologies to live a comfortable life
C. it will take many years to prove Darwin’s idea to be true . D. Modern Technologies are making people busier and busier. (C)
Watering plants is an important part of having a garden. But different plants have different needs. Plants like plenty of water, but how do you know what is too much or too little? Here are just a few helpful suggestions you may want to consider. 3 Do’s 3 Don’ts Water early.
Water in the morning before it begins to get hot. It’s a perfect time to water your plants. This way they are ready for the hottest parts of the day. Don’t water too much.
Although plants are usually thirsty, too much water can be harmful to their growth. If you notice the leaves are becoming yellow and falling off, it is a clear sign of too much water. Drain (排水) properly.
Be sure to check the surrounding area of your plants regularly. The extra water should be drained well. Don’t water late.
This is especially important. Although not everyone will be able to do their watering in the early morning hours, try not to wait too late in the day. If you water in the afternoon when it is hot, lots of water will evaporate (蒸发)before reaching the roots. If you water in the evening, the roots will be too wet. Prevent insects. A thin, fine mist (喷雾) will prevent insects from setting on the leaves and flowers. Don’t water the leaves.
The most ideal place to begin is the root. This is where most of the growth and development takes place. In order for your plants to be strong, the roots have to be healthy.
To really know what works well for your plants, watch them for signs of over watering or signs of not getting enough water. For more great advice on rose watering and growing roses, visit http:// www. myroseguide. com.

Do you feel happy in your life ? Happiness are for everyone . You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on . Why ? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time . In fact , happiness are always around you if you put your heart into it . When you are in trouble at school , your friends will help you . When you study hard at your lessons , your parents are always taking care of your life and your health . When you get success , your friends will say congratulations to you . When you do something wrong , people around you will help you to correct it . And when you do something good to others , you will feel happy too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them , you can see that happiness are always around you . Happiness are not the same as money . It is the feeling of your heart . When you are poor , you can also say you are very happy , because you have something else that can’t be bought with money . When you meet with difficulties , you can say loudly you are very happy , because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck . As the saying goes , “ Life is like a revolving(旋转的)door ” When it closes , it also opens . If you take every chance you get , you can be a happy and lucky person. 61. Those who have big houses may often feel ______. A. happy B. excited C. free D. lonely
