二．阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
A
Neighbors play an important role in our lives. Their lifestyle, friends, and social habits can have a strong influence on our lives. So it's a good idea to get along well with neighbors and build a better relationship that will last for many years to come. But how should you get along with your neighbors?
When you hear of a special need you can meet, do it, such as sitting with a sick child
while your neighbor goes to work or taking an elderly parent to a doctor's appointment when their car won't start.
If you hear that someone close by is ill, has an accident, or is out of work, give him or her a hot meal or a fresh dessert. Your kindness will add a special feeling during a difficult time. If your neighbor is cutting down a tree or building a doghouse, offer helping hands to him or her. There is no better way to build relationships. Besides, you never know when the favor(恩惠) might be returned.
Exchange holiday cards, gifts or traditions. Invite your neighbors over for a cup of coffee or lun ch. A backyard barbecue(烤肉) can be a great way to share food and fun. If they've watched your kids grow up or been concerned about your family events, they may want to share these special events.
Plan a party. Invite all your neighbors to your party. Planning and carrying out the activity helps everyone to know and understand each other. Your neighbors are like your family in many ways since you have to live with them, or near them for a long time. Appreciate their stron g points and ignore weak points, and everyone will get along well. 21．The purpose of the first paragraph is to ________.
A. introduce how you can get along well with your friends

A. try to give them a helping hand
B. do housework for them when they are sick
C. give them a good job if they're out of work
D. lend them money when their parents are ill
23．What d oes the passage mainly talk about?
A. Tips on how to form a healthy lifestyle.
B. The best way to form good habits.
C. The importance of being helpful.
D. Tips on how to get along with your neighbors.
24．This passage most probably belongs to ________.

Tips for travel to England
Good afternoon，and welcome to England. We hope that your visit here will be a pleasant one. Today, I would like to draw your attention to a few of our laws. The first one is about drinking. Now, you may nor buy alcohol in this country if you
are under 18 years of age, nor may your friends buy it for you. Secondly, noise. Enjoy yourselves by all means, but please don't make unnecessary noise, particularly at night. We ask you to respect other people who may wish to be quiet. Thirdly, crossing the road. Be careful. The traffic moves on the left side of the road
in this country. Use pedestrian crossings and do not take any chances when crossing the
road. My next point is about litter(throwing away waste materials in a public place). It
is an offence (冒犯)to drop litter in the street. When you have something to throw away, please put it in your pocket and take it home，or put it in a litter bin. Finally, as for smoking, it is against the law to buy cigarettes or tobacco if you
are under 16 years of age. I'd like to finish by saying that if you require any sort of help or assistance, you
contact
should
your local police station, who will be pleased to help you.
Now，are there any questions? 25．The main purpose of this speech would be to ________.

My daughter's birthday is May 29. She was 6 by then. As it was Monday, we preferred to celebrate it earlier, i．e. on Saturday, May 27. This was easier for me as I'm free on Saturdays. On Thursday the entire family was busy packing the presents and putting funny pins on them. I promised my little princess that I would wake her up early in the morning and distribute the presents to her classmates.
I woke up at 05：30. After I took a bath, I planned to wake her up.However, as I came out from the bathroom, I realized that an earthquake struck. I screamed to wake my husband up and asked him to carry my daughter and run out of our house. It happened for just 3 minutes, but some cracks appeared on the wall.
However, as we had planned, I went to my daughter's school at 08：00 but no one was there except the teacher who warned us to get back to our house. On the way home I heard a police cried out loud: “Stay calm, no tsunami！”
After some discussion, we decided to give the presents to the children in hospital. Entering the hospital, I was really shocked. There were thousands of people bleeding and lying outside the rooms.
A boy came up with a bandage(绷带) on his head. He stared at me with his questioning eyes as if he wanted to say，“Could I have one？” Quickly I handed over one present to him. He received it and ran to his mum, shouting，“Mommy…there's a turtle pin on it！！” His eyes glittered. God, I can't ever forget his glittering eyes!
29．Why did they celebrate their daughter's birthday ahead of schedule?
A. Because they knew there would be an earthquake.
B. Because they were busy on May 29.
C. Because Saturday was a lucky day.
D. Because their daughter hoped so.
39．The family packed the presents and pinned something funny on them ________.
A. to sell them before the earthquake
B. to give them to the children in hospital
C. to give them to the daughter's classmates
D. to show them to the daughter's teacher for praise
31．Which of the following is RIGHT according to the passage?
A. The destruction and injury caused by the earthquake were not serious.
B. The earthquake broke out when the writer was taking a bath.
C. When the earthquake hit the city, the writer's husband was still asleep.
D. They were too frightened to carry their daughter out.

The average American child spends three to five hours a day watching TV. In 1961, the average child began to watch television at age three; however, today it is nine months. Yet, most parents think that television has bad influence on their children. For example, in the early 1970s, my parents believed that my bad eyesight was the result of sitting too close to the screen, and they therefore made my stay at least six feet from it. Today, most people have no such worry, but many new ridiculous(荒谬的) sayings have appeared：*TV makes kids stupid. Many children watch more educational programs when they are pre-schoolers. When they grow up, they can read more books and have much better ideas to solve difficult problems than other children.
*TV makes kids violent. The real story is not so simple. Hundreds of studies show that watching violence on TV makes children more aggressive (好斗的)．But a study of over 5，000 children also finds that some positive programs make children kinder. The problem is that kids are increasingly watching shows with violence instead of those suitable for their age.
*Sitting around watching TV makes kids overweight. An experiment finds that when
children watch less television, they do lose extra weight; however, reducing their television time does not make them more active. The real problem lies in snacking (吃零食)，a widespread habit for kids, and junk food advertisements.
*TV helps kids get to sleep. The opposite is true. The more television children watch, the more likely they are to have irregular sleep and nap(小睡) patterns. Allowing kids to watch television is part of the problem, not the solution.
32．Which one is the advantage of educational TV programs?
A．They will make children solve difficult problems better than others.
B．They will improve children's ability to get along with others.
C．They are likely to make children more aggressive.
D．They will make sure of children's success in the future.
33．Why are children spending much t ime watching TV likely to be fat?
A．Watching TV makes children lazy and inactive.
B．Children are attracted by the food advertisements on TV.
C．Watching TV doesn't burn up as much fat as doing sports.
D．Children like to snack while watching TV.
34．What influence does watching TV have on a child's sleep?
A．Children are likely to sleep deeper after watching TV.
B．Children's sleep time will be greatly reduced.
C．It will make children form a bad habit of sleeping.
D．It will make children sleep easier.
35．What is the purpose of this text?
A．To increase people's knowledge of watching TV.
B．To warn parents of the disadvantages of watching TV.
C．To explain the bad influences that watching TV has on children.
D．To correct parents' wrong ideas of tel evision's effect on children.
三．七选五(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Everything you do to protect the planet helps all living things, including humpbacks(座头鲸) and other species of whales that live in oceans worldwide. And yes—just one kid, like you, can make a difference.__36__．
Don't litter. Rubbish thrown away carelessly outside often washes into storm drains(排水沟), which empty into rivers and eventually flow to the oceans.__37__， including whales.
Say, “No bag, thank you.” Whether you're buying toys, snacks, or clothes, tell the checkout person you don't need a bag.__38__， you'll help reduce the 100 million plastic bags that each year block sewers(下水道), and get swallowed by whales, sea turtles, and other wildlife.
Plant a tree.__39__．They produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide(二氧化碳), a gas that animals, including humans, produce naturally as they breathe. But because carbon dioxide also comes from cars and factories, there is too much of it in the atmosphere, which is contributing to global warming. If everyone planted one tree, those trees would remove a large amount of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
__40__. Every time you leave a room for more than a minut e, turn off the light you're using. In this way, you save energy and keep greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere.

B．Turn off t he light

Li_Hua_and_Wang_Hai_are_two_students_of_Senior_Three.Both_of_them_work_hard_but_th ey_have_different_learning_methods.Li Hua listens to her teachers attentively, tries to catch everything that the teachers say in class and consults her teachers as often as possible if she has some problems. Because of this, she spends less t ime doing her homework, so it is certain that she can go to bed earlier and she always keeps energetic in the day.
However, Wang Hai has quite a different way of learning. He likes to sit up late at night doing his homework, so he often feels sleepy in class. As a result, he misses lots of key points and it usually takes him more time to finish his homework, which makes it difficult for him to concentrate on what he is doing.
In my opinion, Li Hua learns more effectively in class and has more free time to enjoy
herself. So I prefer her learning method.
