Ⅲ.阅读理解(每小题2分，满分30分)
A
Have you noticed your life becoming a little easier? Now, when you go to a certain shopping mall, you can enjoy its free Wi-Fi there. When you want to take a taxi, you can book one with your phone. In fact, all these can be seen as the basic parts of a smart city.
The idea of a smart city was brought up by US company IBM in 2010. Generally, a smart city is a city that uses digital technologies such as the Internet to improve city planning, save money and resources, and make our life convenient. How smart can a city be? Here are great examples that we can learn from.
In 2009, Dubuque became the first smart city in the US. The city used smart water meters to take the place of traditional water meters. They can detect(探测) water waste and leakage(泄漏) and send data to let the house owner know. The same system is used for other city resources like electricity and natural gas. This way, people know how they use their resources and are glad to help reduce waste.
Santander in Spain also gives us a look at the future. If people point a phone toward a nearby bus stop, the phone immediately shows all bus lines that serve the stop as well as their arrival times. The government organized a research team and provided an App(应用程序) that collects data on almost everything: light, temperature, and the movements of cars and people. Opening the App near a supermarket provides immediate information on special offers.
51. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Digital technologies are used in smart cities.
B. An English company first raised the idea of a smart city.
C. A smart city is mainly made up of free Wi-Fi and phones.
D. A smart city is still an idea and hasn’t come into being.
52. The underlined word “convenient” is the closest in meaning to _______.
A. useful B. normal C. suitable D. easy
53. Compared to traditional water meters, smart water meters do better in _______.
A. cleaning water B. supplying water C. saving water D. producing water
54. The example of Santander shows the use of smart systems in aspects(方面) EXCEPT _______.
A. business B. health care C. traffic controlling D. public transportation
55. What’s the main idea of the passage?
A. Digital technologies help improve city planning.
B. Smart cities will make our future life better and smarter.
C. Smart cities are very common in both Dubuque and Santander.
D. Spain and the US take the leading position in building smart cities.
B
It is true that people with better education are usually able to get better paying jobs. In other words, they have more chances to choose a good job while people with little or no education don’t. It seems that the purpose of education is to make people get jobs. But this isn’t accepted by all people.
Some people may think that a person should spend the best years of his life to get education only for a way of living. This was probably one of the earliest reasons of education. In fact, if education is just a way of making a living, people don’t need to spend so much time in school. People can get education for a living in a short time. Subjects like history and geography need not be taught to everyone. Even language and mathematics need not be taught in detail(详细地), either. Here it is clear that education is much more than teaching a man to get a way of living.
Education is well-rounded and it is mainly for improving a man. It is not only to teach him to speak, read and write, but also to develop his creative thinking and other abilities. After that, it is to make him a wise man and thankfully enjoy the achievements of humans. Education is to make a man lead a better life. Educated people are expected to be able to listen to good music, read good books, watch plays and most of all take an interest in the world.
I would agree that making a good living is an important reason for education, but certainly not the most important or the main reason.
56. People with little education usually _______.
A. spend a long time in school B. have a good chance to get a job
C. spend the best years to choose jobs D. have a smaller chance to get a good job
57. The earliest education was probably to _______.
A. make a man lead a better life B. teach a man to write and think
C. make people get a way of living D. teach people to read good books
58. The underlined word “well-rounded” in the passage means “_______” in Chinese.
A. 圆满的 B. 崭新的 C. 公平的 D. 全面的
59. It is expected that educated people will be able to _______.
A. accept education as a way of living B. take an interest in the whole world
C. develop their abilities to make plays D. learn subjects like language and math
60. The passage mainly tells us that _______.
A. education should make a man improve
B. people can get education in a short time
C. people should be able to get better-paid jobs
D. all subjects are so important for a way of living
C
Every year thousands of people get hurt or die when they are crossing the road. Most of these people are old people and children. Old people often get hurt or die because they can’t see or hear very well. Children often get hurt or die because they are not careful. They forget to look and listen before they cross the road.
How can we lower traffic accidents? First, (64)all of us must obey the traffic rules. For the drivers, they shouldn’t drive too fast. If they drive too fast, it will be very difficult to stop the cars in a very short time. For the pedestrians(行人), first, they must be careful when they are walking on the road. When we walk across the road, we must try to walk underpasses(地下通道) or footbridges(步行桥). We must walk the crosswalk. (65)We must stop and look both ways before crossing the road. Look left first, next look right, and then look left again. Only when we are sure that the road is clear can we cross it. The right way to cross the road is to walk quickly. It’s not safe to run. If people run across the road, they may fall down. Second, try to help children, old people or the blind people to cross the road. Third, never play in the street.

21. B in front of“在……前面”，指在某物外部的前面。
22. A nobody“没有人”;everybody“每个人”;somebody“某个人”;anybody“任何人”。由答语后句句意“我自己打扫的”可推知没有人帮助她，故选A。
23. C be full of与be filled with同义，意为“充满，装满”。
24. D size意为“尺寸，尺码”;design意为“设计”;price意为“价格”;color意为“颜色”。由答语句意“当然!你穿红色衣服看起来总是很漂亮”可知问句句意应为“你认为这条裙子的颜色适合我吗?”故选D。
25. A get on“上车”。
26. B 由题干及句意“大部分学生喜欢那些很理解他们的老师”可知本题含有定语从句，引导定语从句时which修饰表示物的先行词;who修饰表示人的先行词;where修饰表示地点的先行词;when修饰表示时间的先行词。空格前的teachers是表示人的名词，用who来修饰，故选B。
27. D in one go意为“一下子，一口气”。
28. A even if引导让步状语从句，意为“即使”。句意：我即使一夜不睡，也要帮助你。
29. B as usual“像往常一样”;at first“最初;起初”;after all“毕竟”;so far“到目前为止”。由But now it’s widely used in every field.(但是它现在被广泛应用于每一个领域)中的now (现在)及表示转折关系的but推知前句句意为“最初因特网只被政府使用”。故选B。
30. B 本题考查一般过去时态。由句中的时间状语last month(上一个月)可知应用一般过去时态。故选B。
31. D a few修饰可数名词复数，表示肯定意味。
32. A the number of表示“……的数目”，后面的谓语动词用单数形式。a number of表示“许多”，修饰可数名词。
33. A 问句中介词短语in red(穿红色衣服)作定语修饰woman，由此可知此处是特指，前面应加定冠词the，排除B、D两项;虽然university的第一个字母是元音字母，但其读音以辅音音素开头，其前用不定冠词a。故选A。
34. B 句意为“六月是一年中的第六个月”。
35. B visitor的所有格是visitor’s;后句用名词性物主代词mine作主语，代指my car。
36. A conversation意为“交谈，谈话”;report意为“报告”;survey意为“调查”;speech意为“演讲”。由文章第三段第三句中的this phone call changed his life(这次通话改变了他的人生)可知，此处应选A项，表示“但最近和他妈妈的一次谈话改变了他的人生”。
37. D so意为“所以”;but意为“但是”;therefore意为“所以”;however意为“然而”，用于句首时，与句子其他部分要用逗号隔开。由前句句意“他过去不常给他妈妈添麻烦”和空格后面的叙述，特别是第二段第二句Unfortunately, Martin still caused problems.可知，此处应表转折关系。再由空格后的逗号可知，应选D项。
38. C 空格后的more difficult是形容词的比较级，而选项A和D用于修饰形容词或副词原级;选项B是形容词，修饰名词复数;much可修饰比较级，表示程度，故选C。
39. B 由上文His mother couldn’t afford to pay for her child’s education.(他的妈妈不能支付她孩子的教育费用)可知，此处句意应为“为了做到这一点，她不得不工作，所以经常不在家”。have to意为“不得不”，表示由客观原因决定必须做某事，故选B。
40. C look after意为“照看，照顾”，是动词短语，应用副词修饰，故排除D项。而A、B两项意思不符合语境。well是副词，意为“好，好地”，符合语境要求。句意：他的妈妈尽可能好地照顾他。
41. D 由上句句意“不幸的是，马丁仍然闯了不少的祸”和后半句句意“他经常麻烦缠身”可知，此处句意应为“他对学习不感兴趣”。短语be interested in doing sth.意为“对做某事感兴趣”，故选D。
42. B worried意为“担心的”;patient意为“有耐心的”;careful意为“仔细的”;serious意为“严肃的”。由马丁四处闯祸可知，此处句意应为“幸运的是，他的妈妈非常有耐心，而且她从未放弃过尽力帮助他”，故选B。

44. D argue with意为“与……争吵”;say不与with搭配;discuss的搭配为discuss sth. with sb.;talk with意为“与……谈话”。由后面的with可知，B、C两项首先排除;而A项在此不符合语境，故应选D项。句意：老师说马丁有必要跟他妈妈谈一下。
45. C to one’s surprise是固定搭配，意为“令某人惊讶的是”，此处surprise用作名词，意为“惊讶，惊奇”。
46. B 分析该句结构可知，空格处在此引导一个表语从句，且在从句中作needed的宾语，what有此双重功能，故选B。
47. D see意为“看见”，强调看见的结果;notice意为“注意”，指注意到某事或某物，强调动作;help意为“帮助”;watch意为“注视”，强调状态。分析上下文可知，此处表示“……爸爸虽然不再与我们在一起了，但他一直在注视着我……”，强调的是一种持续的状态，故选D。
48. A since意为“自从”;before意为“在……之前”;after意为“在……之后”;when意为“当……的时候”。由后面my father died, I have been afraid of being alone...可知，此处符合“since+一般过去时态的从句，主句用完成时态”这一句型特点，所以选A。
49. C always意为“总是，一直”;hardly意为“几乎不”;really意为“确实”;just意为“仅仅”。由下文的He has been working hard and is now one of the best students in his class.(他一直努力学习，并且现在是班上最好的学生之一)可知马丁发生了很大的变化，故正确答案为C，表示“现在马丁确实变了”。
50. B advice意为“建议”;love意为“爱”;idea意为“主意”;decision意为“决定”。通读全文可知，是妈妈的爱使他改变了，故选B。
51.

52. D useful意为“有用的”;normal意为“正常的”;suitable意为“合适的”;easy意为“容易的;舒适的”。结合第一段第一句Have you noticed your life becoming a little easier?(你注意到你的生活变得更容易些了吗?)可知make our life convenient中的convenient与easy同义，故选D。

55. B 由文中提及的“城市智能化能让人们的生活更方便、省钱、节能”可推知，文章的中心思想应该是：智能城市会让未来的生活更好、更智能。故选B。

Dear Tina,
Thank you for your letter.
I know that you want to visit China. That’s a good idea. As you know, Beijing is the capital of China. It has a long history, and there are many places of interest, such as the Great Wall, the Palace Museum and the Summer Palace. Summer and Autumn are the best time to come to Beijing. You can go surfing in Dalian or Qingdao in summer. The waves there are very beautiful. I’m sure you will have a good time in China. I’m looking forward to seeing you soon.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Ming

He was Matthew. 36 he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, then they were told he would not make it to 37 . Now he was thirteen. He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal weight lifter.

He said, “You are a champion. You earned that medal. Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”
Last summer I got the news that Matthew had 42 and a letter Matthew had written to me a few days before:

“Make-A-Wish” is one of the world’s most well-known charities. It makes wishes come true for children who have serious illnesses. It gives them hope and joy and helps them forget about their health problems and have fun.
It all started in 1980 in Phoenix, Arizona. Christopher was a 7-year-old boy who was very sick. He always dreamed of becoming a police officer. Tommy Austin and Ron Cox, two police officers, made his wish come true. They gave Christopher a tour of the city in a police helicopter (直升机) and made a real police uniform for him.
There are four kinds of wishes children usually have:
I wish to go. Children usually want to travel or go to a concert, a game or a park.
I wish to meet. Children sometimes want to meet their favourite actors, singers or players.
I wish to be. Some children wish to become actors, singers or police officers.
I wish to have. They often want to have a computer, a game, a bike or many other things.
Let’s hope more wishes will come true in the future. People who work in the charity always try for the best. Almost 25,000 volunteers help, work or give money. Will you be one of them?

Scene 1
On a wild mountain, two goats met on a rock just over a high cliff (峭壁). The rock was so narrow that there was neither room for them to pass each other nor to turn round and go back.
One of them with great care laid himself down on the narrow rock, pressing as close to the rock as he could. Then the other goat gently and softly stepped over his friend, till, safely past him, he could lightly get away.
The goat that had lain down then drew himself up, safe and free to leap again from rock to rock, and eat the sweet grass on the hills.
Scene 2
Two other goats met on the banks of a wild, rushing stream. They found there was a tree across the stream. It formed a bridge from one side to the other.
They stood for a moment with one foot on the tree, each thinking that the other would draw back. But neither of them would give away, and they met at last on the middle of the narrow bridge!
They then began to push and fight with their horns (犄角), till at last their feet slipped, and both the goats fell into the stream, and were lost in the waters!
Both might have been saved if either of them had known how to give way to another at the right time.
48. How did the two goats in Scene 1 manage to get away from the rock?
A. One goat turned around and went back.

Einstein often received invitations to explain his theories at different universities. On these trips, his driver was always the same man called Hans. Hans often said to him. “It is a pleasure to drive a talent like you, Dr Einstein.”
One evening, on their way to a university, Einstein said, “I’m so tired. I wish I could refuse to give my lecture(讲座) tonight, Hans, but I don’t want to let my audience down.”
“I know what to do,” said Hans. “I can give the lecture for you. You can trust me. I’ve listened to your lecture so many times that I’ve learnt it by heart. No one knows you at this university, so they won’t find out.”
So, they changed places. At the university, Hans was guided to the front of the hall. Einstein took a seat, listened to Hans give his lecture without difficulty, and joined in the applause (掌声) at the end.
However, before Hans left, a man shouted, “I’d like to ask you a question.” He then asked a difficult question and Hans had no idea what he was talking about.
Einstein turned pale. “Oh no! 51 ,” he thought. “Now we’re in trouble.” But Hans just laughed and said, “That’s such an easy question that even my driver can answer it. Hans, please…”
Einstein stood up and answered the question perfectly.
They left the university, with Einstein driving. A little later, Hans offered to drive. “No, ” laughed Einstein. “It’s a pleasure to drive a talent like you, Hans.”
51. Which of the following is the most suitable for “ 51 ”?
A. Lies have short legs B. Rome was not built in a day
C. A miss is as good as a mile D. Life is not all roses
52. Just as the mind map, the story can be divided into five parts: opening, rising action, turning point, falling action and ending. Which do you think is the turning point of it?
A. Einstein answered the question perfectly.
B. A man asked a difficult question.
C. Hans offered to give a lecture for Einstein.
D. Hans asked Einstein to answer the question.
53. What would be the best title for this story?
A. Great Minds B. An unforgettable Lecture
C. Two Talents D. An Easy Question

The willful blindness in hockey toward concussions (头部撞击) has dropped. Hockey Canada has followed the lead of USA Hockey in preventing bodychecking (身体拦截) below age 13. A bad head injury of Sidney Crosby, the hockey's greatest star, opened the eyes of hockey people everywhere. This country's children have been facing similar danger at early ages, and Hockey Canada had to deal with a deep worry in the minds of Canadians to make the rule change. The liking for bodychecking from an early age is part of what makes Canadian hockey what it is.
The change in rules should be taken as a chance to draw special attention to skill development in an environment free of danger. It may also control the loss of thousands of young players who don't enjoy that environment.
For years, many Canadian hockey parents and coaches have insisted that bodychecking at early ages is necessary to ensure that players can do it safely at older ages. True or not, there may be a safer way to teach hitting than to make younger players pay a price for it in head injuries. When USA Hockey changed its rules for the 2011-2012 season, it also created bodychecking-education programs that will be mandatory (强制的) for all coaches, including those teaching players in the pre-checking ages. And it began to encourage more "touch" - without real bodychecking - from 9 to 12. It also made the rules for 13 and up stricter. The USA is trying to show that it's possible to teach hockey protective skills without putting 11 and 12-year-olds in greater danger. It's worth the try.
Hockey Canada has taken serious steps to do away with hits on the head. However, it's hard to change a sports culture so connected with who we are as a country. Too often, bodychecking has been used to try to separate a player from his head rather than from the ball. Children were paying a price for this country's love of the game.
There are always changes in Canada's game, and the change in the bodychecking age sends the clearest message yet to coaches and parents that player safety is paramount (至上的) in the game.
56. We can tell that the problem of bodychecking in Canada____________.
A. is controlled strictly B. is taken more seriously now
C. is caused by players' carelessness D. is connected with players' interest
57. What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph 2?
A. The safe ways of controlling the loss.
B. The steps of drawing special attention.
C. The possible results of changing the rules.
D. The methods of improving the environment.
58. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The USA found a safer way to teach bodychecking.
B. Bodychecking-education programs in the USA are successful.
C. Bodychecking is a good way to value players' skills in the USA.
D. The USA has tried to create an environment of less bodychecking.
59. What is probably the best title' for this passage?
A. Which is more important? B. How do we change the rules?
C. Why is hockey a dangerous game? D. When should bodychecking be prevented?

Online schools are becoming very popular with many people today. And now, even regular students are going in for online education. As it leaves them with enough time to do other things, such as a part-time job or a hobby, along with studying. However, as with everything, there are two sides about online schooling.
Let’s start with the good side. Online schools cost very little. You don’t have to spend money on books, or bus fees. Also, since you can work along with studying at an online schools, you would not need to take an education loan. Another benefit of going to school online is the freedom it provides. You can study wherever you want—in your house, at a cafe or even in a park. Some people who want to study further, now no longer have to take a break in their jobs, thanks to online schools.
However, those students who often need a push from their teachers to do well have a very high chance of not doing well at online schools. When studying in a class, different topics in a given subject are discussed and different students give their points of view. This is something that online schooling cannot provide.
Also, there are many employers who prefer students with a regular and traditional degree to those who have an online degree. The employers feel that students who go to full-time colleges have more knowledge compared to those who have online degrees.
In general, it can be said online schools are good for some, while others should give them up! A person should see the situation he is in and then decide whether or nor to choose an online school.
Are online schools a good idea?[
The present situation Online schools are so popular at present that some regular students also ___________ (1) them.
Main point Online schooling, like everything, has two sides as follows.
Advantages of online schooling ●You spend ___________ (2) money at an online school and you can work along with studying.
●You are free at online schools because you can study anytime and anywhere you want.
●If you want to accept further __________ (3), you needn’t give up your job thanks to online schools.
Disadvantages of online schooling ●Some students are likely to do badly at online schools for lack of a push from their teachers.
●Students do not have the __________ (4) to discuss with their classmates.
●After graduation, students with online degrees are not ____________ (5) by many employers.
Conclusion Whether online schools are good for you is decided by your situation.

Fishing is my favorite sport. I often fish for hours without catching anything. But this does not worry me. Some fishermen are unlucky. Instead of catching fish, they catch old boots and rubbish. I am even less lucky. I never catch anything - not even old boots. After I had spent whole mornings on the river，I always go home with an empty bag. “You must give up fishing!” my friends say. “It’s a waste of time. But they don't realize one important thing.

In some science fiction movies, evil robots refuse to die, no matter how hard people fight back.
Now science fiction has become science fact. For the first time, scientists have made a robot that can take a beating (挨打) and keep on going. Scientists from Cornell University made the robot, which looks like a spider with four legs.
Until now, even the most advanced (先进的) robot was almost certain to break down when it was damaged. That is because its computer inside simply doesn’t know how to make the machine work after its shape has changed.
To deal with this problem, the scientists put eight motors (发动机) and two sensors (传感器) that read how the machine is working. They all give signals to the machine’s software. Using this information, the computer can then figure out the machine’s shape at any moment.
The new technology is a big advance in robot-making, scientists say, and it’s far from scary. It may someday help scientists create better artificial (假的) arms and legs and give new freedom to people who lose them. It might also help scientists understand how people and animals figure out their own sense of place in space.
“It has been difficult to design robots that can work well when the environment changes or when it’s damaged,” says Olaf Sporns of Indiana University in US. “With this work, we are nearer to solving this problem.”
( )56.Why do robots easily break down when they are damaged?
A. They cannot repair themselves.
B. The computer has changed a lot.
C. They have no computers inside.
D. The computer cannot work if the robot changes.
( )57.The new technology allows the robot to _________.
A. do house work for humans
B. keep working after being damaged
C. remember a lot of information
D. tell people where it is
( )58.The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 5 refers to ________.
A. sensors B. robots
C. arms and legs D. scientists
( )59.How do the sensors in the robot work?
A. They can replace the computer when it’s broken.
B. They can find out where the damage comes from.
C. They help the computer learn the robot’s condition.
D. They can send signals to the person who uses the robot.
( )60. The passage is probably from_____________.
A. a newspaper B. an advertisement
C. a tour guide D. an application
C
In order to know a foreign language thoroughly, four things are necessary. Firstly, we must be able to understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves, correctly, with confidence and without hesitation. Thirdly, we must be able to read the language and fourthly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to compose(组成)sentences that are grammatically correct. We must know how to arrange sentences in paragraphs, so as to write a good letter or composition.
There is no easy way to succeed in language learning. A good memory is of great help, but it is not enough simply to memorize rules from a grammar book. It is not much use learning by heart long lists of words and their meaning. We learn words not by ourselves, but in sentences. We must learn by using the language. “Learn through use” is a good piece of advice for those who are studying a new language. Practice is very important. We must practice speaking and writing the language whenever we can.
( )61.The most important things to learn a foreign language are_______.
A. understanding and speaking
B. memorizing and listening
C. writing and understanding
D. hearing, speaking, reading and writing
( )62.Someone hears and writes English very well, but he speaks it very badly. This is because________.
A. he doesn't have a good memory
B. he often hesitates to practice speaking it
C. he always remember lists of words and their meanings
D. he doesn't understand the language when he hears it spoken
( )63. One can never learn a foreign language well only by_______.
A. doing more exercises
B. studying the dictionary
C. learning through use
D. using the language
( )64. Which of the following is the most important in learning a foreign language?
A good memory. B. Speaking. C. Practice. D. Writing.
( )65. "Learn through use" means_______.
A. we use a language in order to learn it
B. we learn a foreign language in order to use it
C. we can learn a language before using it
D. we can learn a language well while we are using it

B.阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成表格中所缺信息，每空一词。(共10题，每小题1分，计10分)
In today’s society, everyone is busy and running at a fast pace every day. We feel our time is valuable and needs to be used well. We need cheap meal ideas that can help us save time and money and still provide a healthy and nutritious (有营养的) dinner for us and our family.
The fast food makers know we have little time and that the idea of cooking dinner after a long day at work is not something we look forward to. So the fast food makers offer us cheap food that requires no cooking, no cleaning, and only 25 minutes to pick up.
But eating so much fast food will cause body fatness and fast food is not nutritious, so it’s not the healthiest choice to consider. There are some very cheap meal ideas that take almost no time to prepare and will make coming home for a good meal more enjoyable.
The first cheap meal idea is one dish which includes meat, vegetables and rice. This is not only a cheap meal idea, but also it is fast because it can be made in only 20 minutes.
You can quickly make some pancakes and scrambled eggs for the family in about 30 minutes. If you think it is strange to eat breakfast food for dinner, consider how the same foods give you what you need to go through a whole day.
Another cheap meal idea to try is a “macaroni and cheese with meat” dish, which only takes around 20 minutes to cook.
If you are interested in these cheap meal ideas, you’re welcome to visit our website for details. When you fix one of these or other cheap meal ideas at home, you are taking time out of your busy day to treat yourself and your family in a special way.

C.阅读与回答问题。(共5题，每小题2分，计10分)
New rules and behavior standards for middle school students came out in March. Middle schools are going to use a new way to decide who the top students are. The best students won’t only have high marks. They will also be kids who don’t dye(染) their hair. The following are some of the new rules.
Tell the truth. Have you ever copied someone else’s work on an exam? Don’t do it again! That’s not something an honest student should do. If you have played computer games for two hours in your room, don’t tell your parents you have done homework.
Do more at school. Good students love animals and care for other people. April is Bird-loving month in China. Is your school doing anything to celebrate? You should join! In that way, you can learn more about animals and how to protect them. When more people work together, it makes it more fun for everyone. Have you ever quarreled with your teammates when your basketball team lost? Only working together can make your team stronger. Be friendly to the people you are with. Try to think of others, not only yourself.
Be open to new ideas. Have you ever thought that people could live on the moon? Maybe you’ll discover Earth Ⅱ some day. Don’t look down on new ideas. Everyone’s ideas are important. You should welcome them, because new ideas make life better for everyone.
Protect yourself. Has someone ever taken money from one of your classmates? Don’t let it happen to you. If you have to go home late, you should let your parents know.
Use the Internet carefully. The Internet can be very useful for your studies. But some things on the Internet aren’t for kids, so try to look at web pages that are good for you. You can use the web for fun or homework. Can’t you find any good websites for children? Here are some: Http:// kids.eastday.com, Http://www. chinakids. net. com, http ://www. cycnet.com.
76.How many rules are mentioned in the passage?
_______________________________________________________________
77.Which month is Bird-loving month in China?

78.Why should we welcome new ideas? (in no more than 8 words)

79.If we go home late, what should we do? (in no more than 6 words)

听第二篇短文，回答第16～20小题。
People are very busy these days. Many people have no time to cook. However, most families love home cooking! The food tastes delicious, and a family meal brings everyone together. In some families, everyone can see each other at the same time only when they have meals together.
Another reason why people enjoy home cooking is that it is often a way of showing love. Parents make some cookies not just because their children like eating them. They are sending a message. The message says, “I love you so much that I spend an hour making cookies, however, you will eat them up in fifteen minutes.”
There is also something about the smell of home cooking. The smell of home cooking makes all the people happy. It makes most of us feel good and loved-even if we are the ones doing the cooking!

Study Abroad or Study in China?
In recent years, more and more students go abroad for further study after graduating from junior middle school. In our school we had a discussion on whether students should go abroad at that early age.
Some students hold the opinion that it can provide better study conditions. They can make rapid progress in their foreign language study. It is also a good chance for them to learn a foreign culture.
However, other students hold the opposite opinion. They think they are too young to take care of themselves. Moreover, studying abroad can cost a lot.
As for me, I would like to go further study abroad. Studying abroad is challenging, but we should learn to depend on ourselves. We can see wonderful outside world as well. When I come back to China, I can make a great contribution to my country.
