My husband hasn’t stopped laughing about a funny thing that happened to me. It’s funny now but it wasn't at the time.
Last Friday, after doing all the family shopping in town, I wanted a rest before catching the train, so I bought a newspaper and some chocolate and went into the station coffee shop － that was a cheap self-service place with long tables to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep a place, and went to get a cup of coffee.
When I went back with the coffee, there was someone in the next seat. It was one of those wild-looking youngsters, with dark glasses and worn clothes, and hair colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did surprise me was that he'd started to eat my chocolate!
Naturally, I was annoyed. However, to avoid trouble--and really I was rather uneasy about him--I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me closely. Then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could hardly believe it. Still I didn't dare to start an argument. When he took a third piece, I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought, “Well, I shall have the last piece.” And I got it.
The boy gave me a strange look, and then stood up. As he left he shouted out. “This woman's crazy!” Everyone stared. That was embarrassing enough, but it was worse when I finished my coffee and got ready to leave. My face went red--as red as his hair--when I realized I'd made a mistake. It wasn’t my chocolate that he’d been taking. There was mine, unopened, just under my
newspaper.

A. wanted a newspaper and some chocolate to take home to her family

A. more and more disappointed at losing the chocolate
B. too tired to start an argument
C. too shy to look in the boy’s direction
D. more and more angry with the boy
26. The woman’s face turned red ________.
A. because she realized that she had been quite wrong about the boy
B. because she realized that the boy was poor and angry
C. because she saw everyone staring at her

A gunman killed eight people at a mall in Omaha this afternoon and then killed himself, setting off panic among holiday shoppers, the police said.
“The person who we believe to be the shooter has died from self-inflicted(自残式的) gunshot wounds,” Sergeant Teresa Negron of the Omaha Police Department said at televised news. “We have been able to clear the mall,” she said. “We don't believe we have any other shooters.” The police said that at least five other people had been injured in the shootings.
She did not give the shooter's identity. “We are still conducting the investigation,” Sergeant Negron said, adding that the city’s mayor, who was out of town, was on his way back to Omaha.
She said the police received a 911 call from someone inside the Westroads Mall on the west side of Omaha, and shots could be heard in the background. The first police officers arrived at the mall six minutes after the first call, she said but by then the shootings were over.
It is reported that the gunman left a suicide note that was found at his home by relatives. A law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity(匿名) said the note indicated that the gunman wanted to “go out in style.”
The shootings broke the usually ordinary routine of holiday shopping. The gunman was said
by some witnesses to have fired about 20 shots into a crowd. Some customers and workers ran screaming from the mall, while others dived into dressing rooms to hide from the shooter.
Shoppers and store workers were trapped inside the mall, which has roughly 135 stores. Others streamed out of mall exits with their hands raised. Our president was in Omaha this morning to deliver a speech, but he had left the city by the time the shootings took place.

A. A travel magazine.
B. A daily newspaper.

30.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

B. The city’s mayor went to the site when the shooting took place.
C. Police arrived at the mall before the shooting was over and rescued customers.
D. The official who showed what the note meant wanted to keep himself from
being known to the public.

Millions of teenagers are in danger of putting their health at risk by getting hooked on e-cigarettes, experts warn. Leading health researchers say they are “very concerned” by the growing number of youngsters trying the devices.
Ecigarettes have been marketed as a healthier alternative to smoking conventional cigarettes. But previous research shows ecigarettes generate poisonous chemicals similar to those found in tobacco and may harm the lungs and immune system.
Worryingly, researchers at Liverpool University discovered 16% of teenagers who have used ecigarettes had never previously smoked. The experts also found ecigarettes were “strongly related” to drinking among teenagers. Study author Prof. Mark Bellis said, “Our research suggests that we should be very concerned about teenagers accessing ecigarettes. While debate on ecigarettes has focused largely on whether or not they act as a gateway to tobacco cigarette use, ecigarettes themselves contain a highly addictive drug that may have more serious and longer
lasting impacts on children because their brains are still developing.”
Researchers surveyed 16,000 students aged 14 to 17 in the North West of England and asked them about their alcohol and tobacco use. They found that one in five answered yes to the question: “Have you ever bought or tried electronic cigarettes?” More males than females said they had.
Of the teenagers that had accessed ecigarettes, 16% had never smoked, 23% had tried smoking, 12% only smoked when drinking, and 14% were exsmokers. The research also found teenagers who drank alcohol were significantly more likely to have accessed ecigarettes than nondrinkers.
Among those who had never smoked, it was found that those who regularly have excessive(过多的)drinking were four times more likely to access ecigarettes than those who never drink. In all of those that drink, regardless of smoking status, ecigarette access was associated with excessive drinking and involvement with violence after drinking. The researchers said their findings suggest that teenagers who use ecigarettes are most susceptible to other forms of substance use and risktaking behaviors.
32.How have ecigarettes been promoted in the market?
A. As a healthier substitute for traditional cigarettes.
B. As a device meeting the mental needs of smokers.
C. As a product preventing smokers from using tobacco products.
D. As a new device promoted among youngsters.
33.What do we learn from the survey made in the North West of England?
A. E-cigarettes are now widely available and heavily promoted.
B. Ecigarette access is linked to excessive drinking and violence after it.
C. Teenagers are very knowledgeable about alcohol and tobacco use.
D. The number of adult cigarette smokers is dropping at present.
34.Which of the following can replace the underlined words “susceptible to” in the last paragraph?
A. greatly interested in
B. commonly accustomed to
C. deeply disappointed at
D. easily influenced by
35.What's the main idea of the passage?
A. Experts are concerned about excessive drinking in teenagers.
B. The harm of the ecigarettes is greater than that of alcohol.
C. Teenagers are in danger of risking their health on ecigarettes.
D. Researchers are aware of smokerelated health harm.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Sometimes, we can be defeated by our worries and anxieties. In addition, our worries can change our understanding of what is reality and what is not. Here is a brief list of techniques that you can use to help gain a better viewpoint on things during the anxious moments.
36 A person should take a deep breath and try to find something to do for a few minutes to get their mind off the problem. A person could get some fresh air, listen to some music, or do an activity that will give them a fresh perspective on things.
Remember that our fearful thoughts are made to seem worse and can make the problem worse. 37 When unexpectedly having thoughts that make you fearful or anxious, challenge these thoughts by asking yourself positive questions that will maintain objectivity and common sense.
Be smart in how you deal with fears and anxieties. Do not try to deal with everything all at once. When facing a current or upcoming task that makes you anxious, break the task into small ones. 38
Remember that all the worrying in the world will not change anything. Most of what you worry about never comes true. 39 Then you should leave everything else in the hands of God.
It is not easy to deal with all the fears and worries. When your fears and anxieties have the best of you, try to calm down and then get the facts of the situation. The key is to take it slow. All you can do is do your best each day, hope for the best, and when something does happen, take it easy. 40
A. This will give you the confidence to manage your anxiety.
B. Take it one step at a time and things will work out well at last.
C. When feeling anxious, stop what you are doing and try to do something relaxing.
D. Instead of worrying about something that probably won’t happen, concentrate on what you are able to do.
E. The next time you feel depressed, review your list and think about the good things that you have in your life.
F. A good way to manage your worry is to challenge your negative thinking with positive statements and realistic thinking.
G. Completing these smaller tasks once at a time will make the stress more manageable and increase your chances of success.

Dear Tim,
I’m one of your students, Li Hua. Our class is planning to go for an outing this Sunday, so I am writing on behalf of our classmates to invite you to join us.
Since autumn is coming with clear sky, cool weather and all the maple trees turning red, we all think it a good opportunity for us to get close to nature and relax ourselves. We are scheduled to gather at the school gate at 9:00 a.m, and take a bus to the Sun Island Resort, which will take about half an hour. The varieties of activities will definitely appeal to us. We will have lots of fun riding bicycles, fishing, rowing boats in the lake and even barbecuing. About 3 hours later, we will be back to school.
We sincerely hope you can come and enjoy a good time with us.
Yours,
Li hua
