第一节（共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
For years I wanted a flower garden. I’d spend hours thinking of different things I could plant that would look nice together. But then we had Matthew. And Marvin. And the twins, Alisa and Alan. And then Helen. Five children. I was too busy raising them to grow a garden.
Money was tight, as well as time. Often when my children were little, one of them would want something that cost too much, and I’d have to say, “Do you see a money tree outside? Money doesn’t grow on trees, you know.”
Finally, all five got through high school and college and were off on their own. I started thinking again about having a garden.
I wasn’t sure, though. I mean, gardens do cost money, and after all these years I was used to living on a pretty lean tight budget(财政紧张).
Then, one spring morning, on Mother’s Day, I was working in my kitchen. Suddenly, I realized that cars were tooting their horns (按喇叭) as they drove by. I looked out of the window and there was a new tree, planted right in my yard. I thought it must be a weeping willow (垂柳), because I saw things blowing around on all its branches. Then I put my glasses on - and I couldn’t believe what I saw. There was a money tree in my yard!
I went outside to look. It was true! There were dollar bills, one hundred of them, taped all over that tree. Think of all the garden flowers I could buy with one hundred dollars! There was also a note attached: “I owe you eight hours of digging time. Love, Marvin.”
Marvin, my first son, kept his promise. He dug up a nice ten-by-fifteen-foot bed (花坛,花圃) for me. My other children bought me tools, a sunflower stepping stone (踏脚石) and gardening books. We built a garden together.
That was three years ago. My garden’s now very pretty, just like what I wanted. When I go out and weed or tend my flowers, I don’t seem to miss my children as much as I once did. It feels like they’re right there with me. When I think about what my children have done for me, I get tears in my eyes every time. I’m still not sure whether money grows on trees. But I know love does!
21. Why had the writer never had a flower garden before?
A. Because she had five children to take care of.
B. Because she didn’t have enough time and money.
C. Because her children wanted expensive things.
D. Because her children were going to high school and college.
22.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The writer put one hundred dollar bills on the tree to decorate it.
B. The writer was wearing her glasses when she saw the weeping willow.
C. The children bought their mother a new garden and some gardening books.
D. The flowers in the garden make the writer feel that her children are with her.
23. The best title for the passage would probably be _____.
A. My flower garden B. Marvin helps to realize my dream
C. Love in Michigan D. Money grows on trees
B
Travel is one of the most exciting experiences a human being can have. Imagine how Italian traveler Marco Polo must have felt when he found himself on Chinese soil, seeing a way of life quite different from anything he’d seen before.
And how great must it have been to listen to Zhang Qian when he returned to China from his journey through Central Asia and West Asia? His brain must have been packed with everything he’d seen and heard, leading to the founding of the Silk Road.
Some people have traveled all over the world, and travel is a way of life to them. They perhaps know what to expect before they travel. That’s why the best travel is when it’s for the first time. Imagine a person who has always wanted to travel to the
United States. Of course, they’ve probably seen the Statue of Liberty a thousand times on TV, and the White House, and all the other famous sights. But none of that would compare to the thrill of looking out of the cabin window as the plane lands, watching the cities and streets of the real America come into view.
Although travel is often just for recreation, it’s also educational. We may not know that we are getting an education, but we still are.
We’re learning every day: new words in a new language, new people, and new ways of life. But this learning takes place in the school of the world, not the classroom. One of the lessons we learn is undoubtedly a moral one. As we get to know foreign places, we come to understand that there are many different ways to live, and that the way we live isn’t necessarily the best way. The British politician Benjamin Disraeli summed this up well when he said, “Travel teaches toleration.”
24. The writer uses Marco Polo and Zhang Qian as examples to ______.
A. explain how the Silk Road was founded
B. present travel as an amazing experience
C. show how the way people travel has changed
D. describe important cultural exchanges in history
25The underlined word in paragraph 4 probably means__________.
A. learning B. knowledge C. fun D. risk
26. According to the last two paragraphs, the writer believes that ______.
A. traveling should be included in formal education
B. traveling improves people’s confidence in their lifestyle
C. a foreign journey may raise people’s cultural understanding
D. there is more to learn from adventures than being in classrooms
C
Human beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more than two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. In this way, they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals, and also for making other tools out of wood. Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.
Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the first tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to success of mankind.
Since 1960, a new kind of tool has appeared. This is the silicon (硅) chip — a little chip of silicon crystal. It is smaller than a finger nail, but it can store more than a million “bits” of information. It is an electronic brain. Every year these chips get cleverer, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways. In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do everything for us. They will even talk and play games with us. People will have plenty of spare time. But what will they do with it?
Human beings used stone chips for more than two million years, but human life changed very little in that time. We have used silicon chips for only a few years, but life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now? What will the world be like two million years from now?
27. From paragraph 1, we can know_____________.
A. what early human beings used the tools for
B. why early human beings cut skin from dead animals
C. how early human beings discovered the tools
D. what food early human beings stored
28. The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it ______.
A. led to the invention of machines in the early time
B. developed cooking abilities of mankind
C. was one of the first tools of mankind
D. was very important to the development of mankind
29. The silicon chip is mentioned in the passage to________.
A. compare the effects of two kinds of tools
B. show the changes of tools
C. introduce a new kind of tool
D. give an example of using tools
30. At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in future is ______.
A. out of order B. hard to predict C. less colorful D. full of meanings

High School Study Skills
Excited about starting high school? You should be! High school is one of the most fantastic experiences of your life! 56 This is the time when you begin to develop the skills that you will use in college and in the working world. As you go forward in these important years, you should change your study habits and skills.
Improve note-taking skills. To some degree, high school will bring a new challenge for students who learned to rely on textbooks during junior school. 57 This means students must learn to take notes with careful attention — or the information will be lost! The key to take good notes is identifying the most important things to write down.
58 One skill that doesn’t get so much attention is the ability to really listen! In order to take good class notes, you need to listen carefully in class and mark each word that is repeated. Once you learn to become an active listener, you will be able to study much better.
Get ready for class discussions. As you are preparing for the next day, write down anything that might worth a good discussion. 59 When classroom discussions do arise, you should record important points on different opinions. This is the sort of thing that will pay off on your test.
Get more organized. In junior school you learned to use many folders, and you met
different teaching styles. This continues in high school; you will have to become more organized and take on much more responsibility when it comes to keeping track of homework. 60
A. Learn how to listen better.
B. Be prepared to discuss further.
C. Think about what to note down.
D. Remember to increase your test prepare time.
E. In fact, high school sets the stage for college and adulthood.
F. It’s important to keep checklists to complete all of your homework.
G. In high school, teachers will introduce some new ideas beyond textbooks.

Dear Han Meimei,
I know from your e-mail that you have difficulty with English. I’d like to give you some advice on how to learn English well.
First, you should listen carefully to your teacher in class and practice as often as possible after class because mastering a language requires a lot of practice. Second, I’d like to recommend that you read some English storybooks, which will help you enlarge your vocabulary. Third, I think it is a good idea to communicate with native English speakers. Last but not least, watching English movies and listening to English songs are good ways to learn idiomatic English.
I hope my advice will be helpful!
Yours,
Li Hua

I still remember the day my mom suggested, "Lets get you some new clothes. "You can imagine that to a little girl that may mean the world, but to me it meant the universe because we were not rich. So I went wide-eyed, wondering what I could select. To my surprise my mom allowed me to pick out a pink one, a navy blue one and, best of all, a yellow and blue one. I loved that yellow and blue dress and to this day I love just thinking about it.
I had a best friend whose family was even worse off than ours. Her name was Emma. I was excited to show her my new beautiful dresses. She loved them all and was happy for me. She explained to me that her father could only afford to buy her clothes for her birthday. I felt she was very sad so I asked her to pick out one of the dresses. She picked up the best one—the yellow and blue dress. I always remember Emma’s smile and how at that moment nothing mattered other than her smile.
