When I was small, my mum used to give the family something special for meals---she would make breakfast food for dinner.
I still remember one night my mum 16 some bread in front of my dad, something very burnt. I waited to see if anybody noticed. To my surprise, my dad just took his 17 , smiled at my mum and then turned to ask me how my day at school had been. I've 18 what I told him that night. 19 I do remember watching him put some butter on that bread. He 20 as usual, every single bit.
After dinner, my mum said 21 to my dad for burning the bread. And I'll never forget what he said, "I 22 burnt bread, dear. It doesn't matter at all."
23 , I went to kiss Dad good night. I asked him if he really liked his burnt bread. He held me in arms and 24 , "Your mum worked very hard all day. She's really 25 . And you see a bit of burnt food never hurt anyone!"

Even kids know that we should wait for the traffic light to turn green before crossing a road, but not everybody follows this basic rule.
“Chinese style road crossing” has become a hot expression recently. Chinese people “cross roads without thinking about traffic lights, so long as（只要）they are part of a crowd”, said a post on Sina Weibo.
A CCTV news program showed that in only an hour, more than 600 people jumped red lights when crossing a road at a crossing in Shijiazhuang, Hebei.
Many people say that they jaywalk（乱闯马路）because the red light lasts too long. Such an opinion is supported by a research team at Tongji University. The team did research on people’s waiting times at different road crossings from 2008 to 2010. They found that Chinese people would
9
wait for 70 to 90 seconds before they lost their patience. “People are likely to ignore(忽视) the light when the waiting time is longer than they can stand,” said Ni Ying, a member of the research team.
However, a survey on Sina Weibo suggested that half of the respondents（调查对象）believe that people jaywalk mainly because they disregard（忽视）rules.“I always obey traffic rules. Time is important but safety should come first,” wrote “Qixiaoe” on Weibo.
Many countries give out punishments to jaywalkers. In Singapore, the maximum(最大量) can be three months in prison. Some Chinese cities have started taking some actions, too. For example, the first three people in a jaywalking group will be fined 50 yuan in Shijiazhuang.
But calling on people to respect rules is more important. To completely solve the problem, everyone should realize the importance of obeying the traffic rules.
36. Which of the following is the “Chinese style road crossing”?
A. To wait for the traffic light to turn green. B. To cross a road slowly.
C. To cross roads without looking at traffic lights. D. To follow the basic traffic lights.
37. What does the phrase “the team” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指的是)?
A. A CCTV news program. B. A research group at Tongji University.
C. A post on Sina Weibo. D. A daily newspaper.
38. How long will Chinese people wait to cross the road before they lose patience?
A. Less than one minute. B. About five minutes.
C. Less than one and a half minutes. D. More than ten minutes.
39. Why do people jaywalk according to the survey on Sina Weibo?
A. Because there are too many people on the road.
B. Because the red light lasts too long.
C. Because people don’t pay much attention to rules.
D. Because people have less patience.
40. The writer suggests that we should________ to solve the problem of jaywalking.
A. punish the jaywalkers B. disregard the traffic rules
C. reduce the time of red lights D. call on people to obey the traffic lights
C
You are visiting the Eiffel Tower in France, but the next second you are in Thailand. Then, suddenly you may have dinner with Barack Obama in America. But you are not dreaming. This is what might happen in the near future. With the help of virtual reality (VR, 虚拟现实) technology, a lot of changes are taking place in our life.
VR is a computer technology that makes an environment and allows users to see and even interact (互动) with it. Just wear a pair of VR glasses joined to your computer and you can experience a lot of things without stepping out of your room.
“The most interesting part of VR is that it offers an immersive experience,” said Wang Bing, leader of the Chinese entertainment company Funshow. “That’s why VR movies are popular among users. You become a part of the story.” According to the Report on Chinese VR Users’ Behavior last month, over 960,000 people in China have bought VR products and 83.2 percent of them have watched VR movies.
VR can also be used in some other ways. It can help to train workers before they have to work in highly dangerous environments. VR also helps patients with acrophobia (恐高症) by making them think they are standing on the top of a tall building.
9
However, VR technology still has a long way to go. Users report feeling sick while wearing VR glasses. Maybe it could take a period of time for VR to be widely used around the world.
41. With a pair of VR ______, users can experience many things at home.
A. eyes B. shoes C. glasses D. ears
42. The underlined word “immersive” means ________ in Chinese.
A. 惊险刺激的 B.身临其境的 C.虚幻缥缈的 D. 神妙莫测的
43. VR movies are very popular because they make the users _______.
A. become much healthier B. stand on the top of a tall building
C. become a part of the story D. work in dangerous environments
44. To be widely used, VR glasses must solve the problem of ________.
A. making people feel sick B. providing unreal environment
C. costing too much money D. taking a long time to join to the computer
45. The best title of the passage may be “_________”.
A. Traveling with VR B. VR Changes Our Life
C. VR Movies Get Popular D. VR Needs to Be Developed

四、阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下面的短文，根据短文内容回答问题。每题答案不超过7个单词。
Lin Xiao, 21, a student at Guangdong University, has a big family – her parents, a younger brother and two younger sisters. Lin took her role as the “big sister” seriously. When her first sister was born, Lin took turns with her mom holding the baby late into the night. “I almost did everything that was supposed to be a parent’s job, but I felt proud of myself,” she said.
Not all of Lin’s classmates shared her experiences because of the family planning policy (政策), The one-child policy has been carried out in China for about forty years. But the situation is about to change. A new policy made on October 29 said all couples can now have two children.
The new policy is expected to help raise the population of China. Recently, China has been facing an aging population and labor shortages because of the low birth rate (比率).
The two-child policy may also be the gift for every only child. Researchers found that growing up with a brother or sister can have good influence on one’s mental (心理) health.
“Brothers and sisters do matter in unique ways. They give kids something that their parents don’t.” Laura Walker, a professor from Beijing University, told China Daily. She noted that having a brother or a sister protects teenagers against loneliness, fear and so on.
Liu Fang, 20, from Shenzhen University, has a 2-year-younger sister. When her sister disagreed with parents over choosing a college major, she helped her to communicate with her parents. “If necessary, I would always have her back,” said Liu. “The best part of having a sister is that you have a partner, friend and supporter throughout your life.”
But children with brothers or sisters also have to learn to understand and look after each other, said Laura.
46. How many children are there in Lin Xiao’s family?
47. How did Lin Xiao feel when she did what a parent should do?
48. How long has China carried out the one-child policy?
49. Why is China facing an aging population and labor shortages?
50. What’s the best part of having a sister according to Liu Fang?
五、任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
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。
Televisions have been necessary in most houses for a long time. Children are very fond of
9
watching TV. Some parents are happy about that because it keeps their children from playing with and breaking things.
Watching TV can help your children learn about lots of things, such as music, other countries, and many other things. They will learn about what is good and what is bad. TV also provides children with up-to-date information about the outside world.
However, it's not right to say that watching TV doesn't have any bad effect on children. You can't let them watch TV as much as they want. Watching TV takes a lot of time. Children need to discover the world by themselves, not just from TV. Besides, children are growing and they need to move around and get lots of exercise. Sitting still and watching TV too much will make children become weaker physically.
Most children like to eat snacks while watching TV. That will make them put on weight. To make it worse, there may be too many ads and violent(暴力的)scenes on TV. These things, of course, are bad for children.
As parents, you should control the amount of TV that your children watch. You have to choose the right channels for them, and shouldn’t let the TV be on all day. Turn it off right after their programmes end. Encourage them to take part in outdoor activities and do more things. Never put a TV in the bedroom, especially in your children’s room!

At the end of the day you should review what you have learnt during the day and prepare the lessons you’ll learn the next day.
Don’t forget to try a___76___ your parents or teachers for help if you cannot come up with answers by yourself.

It’s important for us to live a healthy life.
First of all, we need to form good eating habits. We’d better eat more fruit and vegetables. We shouldn’t have too much meat or sugar.
Second, It’s necessary for us to do more exercise. We can ride or walk to school. We should take an active part in all kinds of activities. For example, we can play ball games. We can also go jogging and swimming after school.
Third, it’s important for us to have enough sleep. So we should plan our time carefully so that we can go to bed early and get up early.
Last but not the least, keeping clean is also important. We must wash our hands often so that we can prevent some diseases from spreading. We shouldn’t drop litter carelessly. What’s more, it’s necessary for us to clean our rooms every day. We can open the windows to keep the air fresh.
In a word, the healthier life we live, the happier we will feel.
