Americans like to have different kinds of parties such as birthday parties, surprise parties, tea parties and house-warming parties. Pajama (睡衣) parties are one of the most popular kinds of parties in the US. At a pajama party, a group of friends spend the night at a person’s house. It is a great way for children or teenagers to get together and have a good time.
To hold a pajama party, the host (东道主) will usually plan some fun activities such as watching movies and playing board games and video games. He or she should also prepare some delicious snacks and fun food like pizza. Guests at a pajama party should bring their own pajamas, toothbrushes, pillows and blankets (枕头和毯子). But if they forget something, they don’t need to
worry because the host will give them what they need.
If a pajama party is mainly for fun, a prom is no doubt a very important thing in most American schools. A prom is a formal (正式的) dance party that is held at a high school. The party is usually held near the end of the senior year, the last year of high school, so it is often called graduation (毕业) dance. Students are supposed to wear formal clothes at the prom.

三、阅读表达（共5小题,计5分）
阅读短文,根据其内容回答下列问题。
Do you ever think about how many tissues（纸巾）you use during the winter months? Greenpeace, an environmental group, hopes you’ll start. They recently started a campaign（运动）called “Shop Smart, Save Forests.”
The goal of the campaign is to ask people to give up soft tissues. “Recycled tissues do the job,” says a Greenpeace activist (积极分子). “Soft tissues are luxury (奢侈的) and more expensive than recycled tissues.”
At the same time, the paper industry continues to encourage people to buy the luxury tissues. Their advertising highlights the softness of these products. A manager at the Kimberly-Clark company says many buyers want very soft tissues and recycled paper just can’t achieve it. For these buyers, the company offers the high-priced “Kleenex” brand, made of non-recycled paper. For its other less expensive brands, the company does use recycled paper.
Not good enough, insists Greenpeace. They explain that Kimberly-Clark and its competitors should give up luxury paper. They are destroying many old forests. “How many trees have to be destroyed so people can blow their noses?” asks a Greenpeace activist.
Greenpeace has talked to people on the streets in some of America’s big cities, including San Francisco, New York, and Washington. It has asked people to compare the two kinds of tissues and see if they can tell the difference. The result is that most people can tell the difference, but they say the difference is small. And most say they’d be willing to change to the recycled tissues to help save the environment.
As part of their campaign, Greenpeace has also asked people to write to paper companies and ask them to use recycled paper for their whole product line. Kimberly-Clark reports receiving tens of thousands of emails and letters. Hopefully, this will make them give up the non-recycled paper.
36. What is the goal of the campaign?
_______________________________________________________________________
37. Which are more expensive, recycled tissues or soft tissues?
________________________________________________________________________
38. How does the paper industry advertise the luxury tissues?
_________________________________________________________________________
39. Why does Greenpeace want the paper companies to give up luxury paper?
_________________________________________________________________________
40. To achieve its goal, what has Greenpeace asked people to do?
_________________________________________________________________________

My Favorite Sport
My favorite sport is playing basketball. I have been playing it since I was 10 years old.
I play basketball not only for fun but also to keep fit. I often play basketball with my classmates on the playground on school days. We have great fun playing together. On weekends I sometimes practice basketball skills with my father in the gym. I don’t play as well as he does, but he encourages me not to give up in the face of difficulties.
I benefit a lot from playing basketball. I not only feel relaxed but also feel a sense of happiness when I play basketball. Doing sports is really a good way to relax and refresh ourselves after a busy day.
