B篇（节假日活动）本文是说明文。节礼日（Boxing Day）是英联邦部分地区在圣诞节次日庆祝的节日。
In Britain, Australia, Canada and a few other English-speaking countries, people don't stop celebrating when Christmas Day is over---they also celebrate the following day, known as Boxing Day. Boxing Day has nothing to do with the sport of boxing. In fact, it is a popular day for giving additional gifts. Boxing Day has been celebrated for so long, but it is not known how it started.
Some people believe Boxing Day began in the Middle Ages. In those days, churches had a special collection box into which people threw money for the poor,. The day after Christmas the box was opened, and the money was counted. Then the money was given to the poor in the area. Others believe Boxing Day started about 300 years ago when nobles(贵族)hosted Christmas feasts，offering lots of food to many guests. Because many servants were needed to make and serve the food, they could not celebrate Christmas with their families. As a gesture of thanks, the nobles would have leftover food put into boxes for their servants to take home.
Now Boxing Day has become a public holiday in the countries that celebrate it. Although most offices and businesses close, malls are full of people looking for low prices on Christmas goods. Some people spend the day making boxes of old or unwanted things and donating(捐赠)them to the Poor. Many people donate their time to help service organizations like the Red Cross.
No matter how Boxing Day got its start，it’s a wonderful time to donate things or give small gifts to people. By doing so you can make someone’s holiday much happier.
25. What do we know about Boxing Day?
A. It is a public holiday in most countries. B. It is closely related to a kind of sport.
C. It is a newly celebrated festival. D. It comes after Christmas Day
26. Paragraph 2 is mainly about Boxing Day’s .
A. spirit B. origin C. meaning D. importance
27. How do people celebrate Boxing Day nowadays?
A. They make boxes for their families.
B. They throw away old or unwanted things.
C. They volunteer their time to help other people.
D. They go to malls to buy cheap goods for the poor.
C篇
As we all know, it was Thomas Jefferson who wrote the Declaration of Independence (《独立宣言》). He wrote it in two weeks, and after a few changes, it was accepted by the Congress (国会). As a result, he became famous.
Born in 1743 in Virginia, Thomas Jefferson, a wonderful student at school and almost talented(天才的 ) lawyer later, was much interested in politics.
Jefferson was elected the Governor of Virginia in 1779, and he was sent to France as the representative of the American government in 1784. Sixteen years later, at the age of 57, he was elected president after Washington and Adams.
Far from a handsome man, he was tall with long arms and big hands. Jefferson, who was an amusing(令人愉快的) talker in conversation but a poor speaker, was generally good-natured.
Jefferson was regarded as a defender of freedom in America. As a president, he protected the right of free speech. Interestingly enough, in his eight years as president, Jefferson never vetoed (否决) a bill which the Congress had passed. He did a lot in organizing the new University of Virginia.
Thomas Jefferson died on July the fourth, 1826, the fiftieth anniversary of American Independence.
28. From the passage we can infer that America won its independence in _______.
A. 1786 B. 1800 C. 1842 D. 1776
29. How old was Thomas Jefferson when he was elected President of the U.S.A.?
A. He was 47. B. He was in his forties. C. He was 57. D. We don’t know.
30. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

B. Jefferson was not an easy person to get along with.111]
C. Jefferson was not only very talented but also very handsome.
D. Not being politically minded, Jefferson never vetoed a bill passed by the Congress.
31. Jefferson died when he was ________.
A. 72 B. 83 C. 73 D. 92
D篇
Last week I visited my friend Pete in the new home where he lives with his wife and daughter. Pete used to spend his holidays travelling the world, visiting the pyramids in Egypt or scuba diving(潜水) in the Caribbean. Nowadays he prefers to spend his holidays and weekends making his house look more beautiful. Like hundreds of thousands of other British people, he has discovered the joy of DIY (Do It Yourself), which means if there are any things that need fixing around the house, he will try to do the job himself.
As he showed me the new kitchen he put together by himself and the newly painted walls, I asked Pete where he got his inspiration (灵感) from. He told me that his favorite source of ideas was a DIY program on TV.
This got me thinking about the great popularity of DIY programs in the UK. Each major channel has at least one home or garden improving show and there’s even a satellite channel
completely about the subject.
I guess it is not really surprising that DIY programs are so popular. Two common sayings in Britain－ ‘an Englishman’s home is his castle’ and ‘there’s no place like home’－show how important our houses are to us. With the present economic downturn, many people can’t afford to buy a bigger house so they are looking at how they can make their house better without spending a lot of money. DIY is the perfect choice.
But be careful! I read a report that said over 230,000 people were injured while doing home improvements in the UK in just one year, including 41,000 who fell off ladders(梯子) and 5,800 who were seriously hurt by hammers. So I won’t be going down to the hardware store.
32. How did Pete spend his holiday in the past?
A. Visiting his friends. B. Diving.
C. Travelling around the world. D. Making his house beautiful.
33. Which might NOT be shown in a DIY program on TV?
A. Scuba diving B. A garden improving feature.
C. Home improvements. D. Fixing things in kitchens
34. Which is NOT the reason why DIY is popular among British people?
A. They enjoy DIY.
B. They want to make their houses better themselves.
C. They can improve their houses without spending much money.
D. They want to be on TV.
35. At the end of the article the writer wants us to remember _____.
A. not to go to the hardware store
B. to be careful not to get hurt while doing DIY
C. to keep watching DIY on TV while drinking a nice cup of tea
D. not to climb ladders or use hammers

The main problem was that I always thought in Chinese and tried to translate into my own language everything which I came across while I was reading. My teacher advised myself to keep a diary.
