On a cold morning in 2015, five-year-old Lucas stood on the bank of Blue Star River, hugging
a dead salmon（鲑鱼）against his thick yellow coat. He looked up at his father, Steve, who nodded
encouragingly. “Go ahead,” he said. “Put it in.” The young boy dragged his feet forward and held
the fish as far as he could into the shallow water. “It’s floating!” Lucas yelled, delighted. For a moment, it’s almost as if the handsome salmon could come back to life.
Lucas’ salmon was just one of 100 or so dead bodies that will land in Blue Star River in a
half-hour activity this morning, delivered by dozens of volunteers. None of the salmon will rise
from the dead, but Andy, president of the Fish Rescue Society, who has promoted this gathering, is
carrying out the resurrection （复活）project of salmon.
Andy led the group’s campaign to recover this urban waterway’s salmon population. “The Fish
Rescue Society started exploring the possibility of recovering the salmon in the river in the
mid-1990s, and they also focused on river recovery in cities worldwide.”
Andy and his group are devoted to giving the river a full make-over. This monumental repair
job, supported by approximately $95,000 of funding from the Pacific Salmon Foundation over the
past 15 years, has involved recovering the river-habitat of salmon and preventing it from wearing
away. Work on the river’s final section was completed in October 2016.

Our neighbour’s son was getting married at an out-of-town church, and my husband and I were
invited. We immediately rushed out to a store, and I bought a nice pink dress with a jacket. The dress
was a little tight, but I had a month to go before the June 30 wedding and I would lose a few pounds.
June 29 came and, of course, I hadn’t lost a single pound; in fact I had gained two. But I figured
a nice new girdle (紧身内衣)would cure everything. So on our way out of the city we stopped once
again at the store. I ran in and told the clerk I needed a large-size girdle. The shop assistant found the box with the described girdle marked "LG", and asked if I would like to try it on. “Oh, no, a large
will fit just right. I needn’t try it on.”
The next morning was rather hot, so I waited to get dressed until about 45 minutes before time
to go. I opened the box only to find a new girdle in a small size. Since it was too late to find another
one and the dress wouldn’t fit right without a girdle, a fight broke out in the hotel room between me
and the girdle. Have you ever tried to shake 20 pounds of potatoes into a five-pound bag? That’s it.
Finally my husband, laughing like crazy, got hold of each side and shook me down into it. At once I
put on the pink dress, which didn’t match my red face well, and was ready to go.
Finally we got to the church. I heard one of the people say that they were having a High Mass. I
turned to my husband and asked, "What is a High Mass?" He shrugged his shoulders.Unfortunately,
I learned that this particular mass would last one hour, twenty-two minutes and eight and one half
seconds—the priest (神父) was going to bless everything except my girdle.
28．The author most probably bought a nice pink dress with a jacket__________.
A．4 weeks later B．4 weeks earlier C．a fortnight earlier D．a fortnight later
29．What had the author wanted to do with the tight dress ?
A．To make herself thinner B．To buy a large size girdle
C．To put on some weight D．To shake herself into it
30．What can we know about the author ?
A．She was very lucky to buy a girdle to go with her dress .
B．She had no choice but to put on the dress without a girdle .
C．She complained to the shop assistant about her carelessness .
D．She managed to put on the girdle with her husband’s help .
31．What would be the best title for the passage ?
A．A Funny Wedding B．A Wise Decision C．A Tight Situation D．A Fierce Fight

Sir William Osler has a few words for you: “In the Life of a young man, the most essential
thing for happiness is the gift of friendship.” Truer words were never spoken. For what
more could you ask than comradeship during the peaks and valleys of life? To whom else
but a close, valuable friend can you show off your successes and complain about your
failures or losses?What is a “good friend”? How is he best described? Well, it has been my observation that
although many will cry with you, few can sincerely rejoice (欣喜) with you. Therefore, in
my opinion, a good friend is one who can enjoy your successes without envy; one who can
say, “That was wonderful! You can do it again, even better if you want!” and mean it.
Nothing taxes a friendship more than the success of one and not the other. Even the closest
of friendships often cannot resist such pressure and fail. No wonder many minor friendships
go down day by day for the same reason.
A person of good character and sound moral, of honor and humor, of courage and belief is a
friend to be sought and treasured — for there are few. Too often we hear, “If you can count
your good friends on more than one hand, consider yourself blessed.” And even then I
would add, “Even if you have lost two fingers of that hand to the electric saw.
What makes a friendship last? Well, I don’t know all the answers, but one of my
observations is that most good friends usually have similar tastes. They generally like and
dislike many of the same things. There also usually seems to exist a similarity of personality
types — especially in the fundamental values of life such as honesty, sincerity, loyalty, and
dependability. More often than not, birds of a feather do fly together. I don’t think it matters
a lot whether one prefers jazz or hockey to another’s Mozart or ballet. Much other matters
far more: relying, sharing, giving, getting, enjoying; a sympathetic ear always there;
criticism when it can help; praise — even if only because it would help. With not many
people on this earth will you find this much in common. When you find one, hang on to
him, for a good friend found is a rare treasure.
32．What is the meaning of the underlined sentence in Paragraph two?
A．People don’t have to pay taxes to develop friendship with others.
B．Success of one person can promote his friendship with others.
C．Friendship can be affected by the difference in success between friends.
D．Nothing can affect friendship because it has gone through the peaks and valleys of life.
33．What is the main idea of Paragraph three?
A．One is lucky to have many friends.
B．A friend should have a good character.
C．We should count our friends on more than one hand.D．A true friend should be treasured because there are few.
34．According to the passage, which of the following plays the LEAST important role in a
long-lasting friendship?
A．Hobbies. B．Tastes. C．Personality. D．Sympathy.
35．The passage mainly tells us “________”.
A．How good friends share the same taste and hobbies?
B．Why is friendship essetial in one’s life?
C．What is friendship and what makes it last?
D．What one can do to keep friendship last?
