One early morning, I went into the living room to find my mother reading a thick book called Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again. My interest was aroused only by the fact that the word “Poems” appeared in big, hot pink letters.
“Is it good?” I asked her. “Yeah,”she answered. “There’s one I really like and you’ll like it, too.” I leaned forward. “ ‘Patty Poem,’ ” she read the title. Who is Patty? I wondered. The poem began:
She never puts her toys away,
Just leaves them scattered① where they lay,… ① 散乱的
The poem was just three short sections. The final one came quickly:
When she grows and gathers poise②, ② 稳重的
I’ll miss her harum-scarum③ noise, ③ 莽撞的
And look in vain④ for scattered toys. ④ 徒劳地
And I’ll be sad.
A terrible sorrow washed over me. Whoever Patty was, she was a mean girl. Then, the shock.
“It’s you, honey,” My mother said sadly.
To my mother, the poem conveyed a parent’s affection when her child grows up and leaves. To me, the “she” in the poem was horror. It was my mama who would be sad. It was so terrible. I burst out crying.
“What’s wrong?” my mother asked.
“Oh Mama,” I cried. “I don’t want to grow up ever!”
She smiled. “Honey, it’s okay. You’re not growing up anytime soon. And when you do, I’ll still love you, okay?”
I calmed down.But I could not help thinking about that silly poem. After several years, I read the poem again and was confused. It all fit so well together, like a simple puzzle easy to understand, yet it was still beautiful. I was now attracted by the idea of poetry, words that had the power to make or break a person’s world.
I have since fallen in love with other poems, but “Patty Poem” remains my poem. After all, “Patty Poem” gave me my love for poetry.
24. Why was the writer attracted by the book Best Loved Poems to Read Again and Again?
A. It was a thick enough book.
B. It has a significant title.
C. I was attracted by something on its cover .
D. Her mother was reading it with interest.
25. After her mother read the poem to her, the writer felt ______ at first.
A.depressed B. thrilled C.puzzled D.terrified
26. It can be concluded from the passage that“Patty Poem” leads the writer to _______.
A.suffer from great homesickness B. find the power of poetry
C. discover her eagerness to grow up D. realize her love for puzzles
C
Antarctica's ice white environment is going green and facing other unexpected threats.Scientists say that as temperatures go up in the polar area, invading (入侵) plants and insects, including the flies, cause a major threat.
More and more of these invaders, in the form of larvae(幼虫) or seeds, are surviving in coastal areas around the South Pole, where the temperature has risen by more than 3℃ over the past three decades. Glaciers have melted, exposing more land which has been occupied by mosses that have been found to be growing more quickly and thickly than ever before---providing potential green homes for invaders.
“The common house flies are a perfect example of the problem the Antarctic now faces from invading species,” said Dominic Hodgson of the British Antarctic Survey. “It comes in on ships, where it exists in kitchens and then at bases on the continent. It now has an increasing chance of surviving in the Antarctic as it warms up, and that is a worry. Insects like the house flies carry bacteria that could have a deadly effect on native lifeforms.”
The Antarctic has several native species of insects. Together with its native mosses these are now coming under increased threat from three major sources: visiting scientists increasing numbers of tourists and global warming. However, it is global warming that is the main driver of the greening of Antarctica.
In 2015. more than 38, 000 tourists visited Antarctica. “These tourists are often very careful about not leaving waste or having mud. But they could carry seeds or larvae on their boots when they set foot on the Antarctic, ” said Hodgson.
More and more invasive insects and plants have been found on the Antarctic and have required removal. “The insects and plants that are native to Antarctica have survived there for thousands of years,” said Hodgson, “We have got to act now if we want to save the environment.”
27. What does the underlined word “mosses” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. House flies. B. Coastal areas. C.A kind of plants. D. A kind of animals.
28. What is the main cause of the Antarctic going green?
A. The arrival of scientists. B .The increasing number of visitors.
C. The rapid spread of native planting. D. The rising temperature around the world.
29. What do we know about the house flies in the Antarctic?
A. They are native species to the Antarctic.
B. They will die out because of the freezing weather.
C. They come to the Antarctic from nearby islands on their own.
D. They severely influenced plants ,insects and others native to the Antarctic.
30.What's the best title for the text?
A.The Antarctic Is Becoming Green and Energetic
B. Various Threats Are Putting The Antarctic At Risk
C. More and More Scientists Get to Explore the Antarctic

Dear Editor,
Recently I have found that some classmates stay up late and skip breakfast, which are not healthy lifestyles. Actually , to help all the students lead a healthy life, I want to offer some suggestions as follows.
First and foremost, we are supposed to have a balanced diet and enjoy breakfast
every day, because we consume much energy while studying. Additionally, it is of equal importance to take exercise on a regular basis, which can contribute to strengthening our bodies and keeping fit. More importantly, it’s a positive attitude toward life that makes a difference, helping us release stress and deal with things optimistically whatever happens.
I sincerely hope my advice will be adopted by us students and that we all can live a healthy life.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

W: Man, the traffic is bad today! I hope we can get to work on time. Maybe we should call the boss and let him know we’re going to be late.

Text 6
W: Eddie, you’ve got to come over and see my parrot! He’s learning so many words now.
M: Really? Last time I saw him, all he could say was something that sounded like “Hello”.
W: Well, now he can sing a song, too!
M: Which song did you teach him?
W: “Calorie.” You know that popular song by a group of girls, right? Actually, I didn’t teach Gobi the words. I was dancing to the song on the radio, and he just picked it up.
M: That’s a pretty smart bird! I’ll come over after school today. Let’s take a video of him and put it online.

M: Well, I guess by planning ahead and making sure that I always have enough ingredients at home.

After talking about it for months, my friends and I finally took a road trip to Los Angeles last weekend. We rented a car and left Seattle early in the morning on Saturday. Our first stop was Portland, where we stopped for a quick lunch. After lunch, we drove around downtown Portland for an hour before getting back to the highway. Our next destination from there was San Francisco. It was a long drive. We left Portland at about 1:00 p.m. and didn’t reach San Francisco until about 11:00 at night. Although there were five of us, only John and I knew how to drive. So by the time we checked into our hotel, we were both exhausted from driving and went to sleep right away. While we were sleeping, Simon, Danny and Henry went dancing in a club and didn’t return until almost 3:00 in the morning. With the three of them sleeping in the back seat, we headed for Los Angeles at 7:00 in the morning on Sunday. After six hours or so, we finally made it to the beach of Los Angeles!
