He was there every morning, sitting still on the front steps of his house. In the morning light, I could see the shadows that were etched (蚀刻) deep within the lines around his eyes.

Each morning I walked this route with my daughter to her school. We were new to the neighborhood so I didn’t know many of my neighbors. On one beautiful auturnn morning, as we passed his house, my daughter called out to him, “Hi, Mr. Man!” Always the outgoing child, I wasn’t surprised at her enthusiasm (热情). But her cheerfulness soon faded when the man didn’t look at her and say “Hi” back.

As we continued on our walk to school, my daughter asked why the man didn’t want to say hi to her. Because I didn’t have an answer, I said simply, “Maybe he is having a bad day.” Later I knew that Bob lost his wife in a car accident.

A few days later, as we approached Bob’s house on our way to school, my daughter called out “Hi, Mr. Man!” and as usual, he didn’t answer. But then she ran onto his front garden and picked up a beautiful red auturnn leaf. She continued up one step and handed it to him. I held my breath.

As she skipped back to me, she said, “See you tomorrow, Mr. Man!” This time, he made a reply. In a soft gentle voice, he thanked her and said, “See you tomorrow.”

From then on, Bob and my daughter exchanged greetings each morning. Our friendship with Bob continued for many years. But, the sweetest day was when Bob attended my daughter’s high school graduation. Bob gave my daughter a gift—a book on recognizing various plants and trees. There, collected in the pages that described an oak tree, was the leaf my daughter had given to Mr. Man when they met. He had dried and pressed it and kept it all these years. 26．What puzzled the girl? A．The cause of the man’s sadness. C．The man’s sitting still on the steps.

B．The shadows in the man’s eyes. D．The man’s not answering her greeting.

27．The underlined word “faded” in paragraph 2 probably means ________. A．continued

B．improved

C．increased

D．disappeared

28．How did the writer feel when her daughter gave the red leaf to the man? A．She was nervous about what would go on. B．She was proud of her daughter. C．She felt happy to see the changes of the man. D．She felt it strange to do so.

29．Why did Bob keep that little red leaf? A．It was a reminder of his painful days. C．It was care and kindness from the girl.

Cultures across the world have different ways for people to greet one another. In New Zealand, they bump noses! The goal of these actions is to make others feel welcome. However, some people would rather say hello orally. They don’t like being touched. Neither does the sensitive plant. Some people keep the sensitive plant as a houseplant because of its interesting behavior. When you touch the leaves of the sensitive plant, it releases (释放) water from its leaves and stalks. As water runs to the plant’s base, the leaves close and the stalks droop. This causes the plant to look wilted (枯萎)！

The sensitive plant draws back from physical contact because it doesn’t want you to touch it, of course! Just like people, this plant sends physical signals that you should leave it alone. This reaction to touch is a defense system. Many animals and insects eat plants, so the sensitive plant learned to move to scare away predators (捕食者). Frightened by the sudden wilting, hungry animals move away to find a different plant to cat. Additionally, wilted plants don’t look mouth-watering. This encourages other nearby predators to look for their dinner elsewhere.

If you touch the sensitive plant and it wilts, have no fear! It’s still a healthy plant. After a few minutes, it will send water back to its leaves and stand straight up again. However, it takes lots of time for the sensitive plant to refresh itself. Don’t touch the plant just to watch it wilt. It may seem like fun, but it’s not fun for its refreshment.

It’s always important to pay attention to the body language of plants, animals, and other people! We should never want to make other living things uncomfortable, and especially not for our own entertainment.

30．What’s the main purpose of writing paragraph 1? A．To introduce the cultures across the world.

B．To list the actions that can make others feel welcome. C．To compare different ways for people to greet one another. D．To lead readers to make a connection between people and the plant. 31．We can infer that the sensitive plant may be also called _________. A．forget-me-not

B．touch-me-not

C．rose of sharon

D．daughter of wind

B．It stood for the girl’s coldness. D．It showed his rich knowledge of trees.

32．The sensitive plant’s interesting behavior is actually a way to _________. A．protect itself

B．entertain itself

C．attract animals

D．kill animals

33．In the writer’s view, _________. A．watching the sensitive plant wilt is fun B．we should treat other living things kindly

C．body language doesn’t help us know each other better D．it’s a good idea to keep the sensitive plant as a houseplant

Chicken eggs are just thin shells (壳) made of mineral (矿物), but you may be surprised how strong they are. What you need *Four eggs *A bowl *A pen *Scissors or a knife *A piece of paper *Some books What to do ① Use the scissors or knife to break a hole in the small end of each egg. Empty out what’s inside into the bowl. Wash and dry the shells. ② Draw a fine line around the widest part of each egg. Break away the shell between the line and the hole slowly. ③ put shells in a square at the four comers of the piece of paper, with the round end of the egg on top. ④ Place books gently onto the four egg shells one after another, and see how many books you can add before the egg shells break down!

What happened The strength of an eggshell lies in its shape. It’s like a 3D arch (拱形) or dome, which is one of the strongest shapes. The shape of the eggshell spreads pressure all over the whole egg rather than at one point. In fact, the shape of the egg hell is seen in many types of architecture, including doorways and large windows. The strong walls of the shell will support the weak point. At right conditions, the thin eggshell can even hold up 20kg weight! 34．The main purpose of the passage is to ________.A．show that eggshells are strong B．learn how to break eggshells

C．find out different kinds of eggshells

D．test what eggshells are made of

D．

36．From the passage, we know that the eggshell is strong because ________. A．the material of eggshell is special C．it spreads pressure to the whole egg

Being a teenager can be challenging, but it can also be exciting. You’re becoming more independent and making decisions for yourself. You are also learning to take risks and solve problems better. And changes are happening throughout your body, even in your brain.

The changes in your brain are influencing how you develop into an adult. Imagine the structure（结构）of your brain is like a big road map. Lots of roads lead to different destinations（目的地）. When you were a child, as you learnt new things, your brain created more and more roads to different destinations. By the time you become a teenager, many different roads lead to the most important places on the map. Now your brain's job is to make that map more efficient.

As a result, your experiences as a teenager actually influence the way that your brain develops. If you spend hours playing video games, what skills do you use? You learn to see something with your eyes and respond to it with your hands. As you develop those skills, your brain is making sure that the roads leading to them are especially fast and efficient. So, your video-game playing could be preparing you for a career such as a pilot.

This is a great time for you to practice new skills and discover what you're good at and try what you love doing. Go out and try different activities, and stick to them if you think they’re useful. Remember that with everything you do, you’re shaping your brain for the future. 37．What happens as children learn new things? A．Their brains make the maps more efficient.

Sheng Men RolesSheng is the man role in Peking Opera, which can be divided into Laosheng, Wusheng, Xiaosheng and Wawasheng. Laosheng is the middle aged or older man who is decisive and honest.

Earthquake rescue robots have experienced their final tests in Beijing. Their designers say with these robots, rescuers will be able to buy more time to save lives during an earthquake.

This kind of robot looking like a helicopter is a flying robot. It’s about 3 metres long, and it took about 4 years to develop the model. Its main functions are to collect information from the air, and send goods of up to 30 kilos to people trapped by an earthquake. It has a high-definition 360-degree panoramic (全景的) camera. It can work day and night and is also able to send the latest pictures from the quake area.

Dr. Qi Juntong, a researcher at Chinese Academy of Sciences, said, “The most important feature of this flying robot is that it doesn’t need a distant control. We just set the destination information on it, and then it takes off, and lands by itself. It flies as high as 3,000 metres, and as fast as 100 kilometres per hour.”

This robot has a different function—it can change as the environment changes. Its main job is to search for any signs of life in places where human rescuers are unable to go. As well as a detector (探测器) that finds victims and detects poisonous gases, a camera is placed in the 3-metre-long robot, which can work in the dark. Another use for the rescuers is the supply part, with its 10-metre-long pipe, people who are trapped in the ruins will be able to get supplies including oxygen and liquids.

Experts have said that the robots will enter production and serve as part of the national earthquake rescue team as soon as possible.

When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does?

As I got a little older, I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids and the sun hurts their eyes...The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.

When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like sales people.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once said, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters. 33．Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine? A．He could not catch a fish.

C．His father did not teach him fishing. 34．What did the author’s father really mean? A．To read about fish.

C．To understand what fishermen think.

B．To learn fishing by oneself. D．To study fishing in many ways. B．His father was not patient with him. D．He could not influence a fish as his father did.

35．According to the author, fish are most likely to be found ________. A．in deep water on sunny days C．in shallow water under waterside trees

B．in deep water on cloudy days D．in shallow water under direct sunlight

36．After entering the business world, the author found ________. A．it easy to think like a customer

B．his first boss’s sales ideas reasonable

C．his father’s fishing advice inspiring

D．it difficult to sell services to poor people

Imagine a vegetable garden that everyone can reach: one you don’t have to bend down to weed, that can follow the sun around in a small backyard and that won’t take up too much space. “Impossible!” you say think-again! A group of people living in suburb came up with a creative way to garden in small space.

They all love growing vegetables but not everyone could do that when they just had conventional vegetable garden. To solve the problem, they added a movable vegetable patch (小块菜地). They turned an old hospital bed into a garden on wheels. The bed can be raised and lowered so everyone, including people in wheelchairs, can enjoy working in the garden. Their local greengrocer provided some containers, where they planted their vegetables. This perfect garden can be easily wheeled around to follow the sun!

It is a great activity for Michelle, Marianne, Shelly, Jimmy and Ashley, who have a disability and are supported in their homes by people employed by the Department of Human Services. The garden is a joy to everyone and provides the vegetables for a lot of cheap and nutritious meals. “Our garden is coming along well,” says Michelle.

“We’ve been eating lots of salad items lettuce, cucumbers, spring onions. Everyone loves them. Unfortunately, the strawberries were a failure. I think it was a bit too hot in the pots for them. We have plans for a potato crop next year, grown on newspapers and covered with straw and sheep manure. It is a very ‘no-dig’ way to grow them.”

37．What does the underlined word “conventional” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Traditional.

B．Special.

C．Real.

D．Large.

38．What is the most obvious advantage of the new garden? A．It can save energy. C．It is quite cheap.

B．It is environmentally friendly. D．It can be easily offered.

39．Why may disabled people especially love the new garden? A．Because it offers a new career to them. B．Because it brings them a lot of pleasure. C．Because it encourages them to help other people. D．Because it helps them make some money. 40．What can we learn from the passage?

A．People need to get more fresh and cheap vegetables. B．It’s a joy for people to be in close touch with creative gardens. C．People want to make the best use of waste and old materials.

D．It’s necessary for disabled people to eat vegetables planted by themselves.

I am a music store owner. One day, when I was cleaning the instruments in my store, I saw an old man come in. “Is 77 too old to learn the banjo(班卓琴)?” he asked.

“You can learn to play it well,” I replied, holding back my doubts. My mind told me I was giving false encouragement. I passed him the teaching schedule, the available time and the information that he would need. To my surprise and joy, the old man, Carl, began banjo lessons three days later with my most patient teacher.

With nothing to do at home but practice, Carl made surprising progress. After breakfast he practiced for his required half an hour. While waiting for lunch he picked up his banjo again for just a couple of minutes. Since TV was difficult for him to see and hear, he often played the banjo in the evenings. Carl was always early for lessons so it was a surprise that he didn’t arrive one Tuesday.

The next morning I listened to the answering machine with sadness. “Carl’s in hospital,” the voice recorded.

Two months later, I shared the newspaper obituary with the banjo teacher. We both felt sad for losing a surprisingly clever banjo student.

Several months later, a woman came into the store carrying a plant. “This is for Carl’s banjo teacher,” she said. “I’m his wife, Mary.”

“Why did Carl want to play the banjo?” I asked. Mary took a deep breath and let it out slowly. “Carl was at a show when he was 10 years old. He came close to the stage to watch the performers. When they were packing up their instruments, the banjo player said to Carl, ‘You want to see this up close?’ Carl climbed up on the stage and from then on he wanted to play the banjo.” Carl had waited 67 years to realize a dream!

A British man has learned the skills needed to perform Beijing Opera, making the audience enjoy his lively performance of the Monkey King.

Ghaffar Pourazar, born in Iran, said he had been a big fan of Bruce Lee since he was a child and was full of interest about China. In 1993, he happened to watch Beijing Opera performed in London by professionals from Jingju Theatre Company of Beijing. Ghaffar said he fell in love with the beautiful voices, colorful costurnes, excellent shows and so on. So after one year, he arrived in China alone and became a student of Beijing Opera at a Beijing school.

At the age of 32, he had to learn with teenage students every day, starting from the most basic training of the legs and waist. At the time, he was mostly troubled by the dialogue in Beijing Opera. To him, it was the biggest problem. But he never gave up.

Four years later, he began to learn to perform the Monkey King, a traditional character from the Chinese classic story Journey to the West. He said he arrived at the workroom an hour earlier than other performers and also bought books and CDs to better understand the character.

When he found that the language was difficult to understand, he started to translate Beijing Opera song lyrics. Ghaffar took a group of actors to perform 66 times in a month and a half in the United States. He also took a 48-member team to perform in Malaysia. In the past 10 years, he has performed in more than 400 shows. 36．In the year of 1994, Ghaffar began to ________________. A．learn Beijing Opera in Beijing C．make friends with Bruce Lee

Q: At recess (课间休息)，I don't know what to do because all my friends are playing games I don't like or don't want to play. So I end up standing by myself at recess doing nothing. What should I do? Alex Rider, 13 A: In fact, recess was my least favorite part of the school day for Grades 1 to 5. I was never really into playing kickball. So, like you, I spent many days at recess standing alone. Take advantage of the extra time you have. I learned that reading a book is the best way to pass time, especially if it is sunny. Books are good for a lonely recess, because they take you out of your world and into another. If reading isn't your thing, then try making new friends. Some other things I would do at recess were chess and paper cutting. Those might be worth trying. Maybe the teacher who is watching over all the kids needs someone to talk to as well. Whatever you want to do, don't let your time go to waste.Johnny Hayes, 15 A: Do you believe in time travel, Alex? Because you just dragged me 40 years into the past. When I was 13, half my friends threw themselves into kickball at recess which was too vigorous ( 剧 烈 的) for me right after lunch. So, like you, I stood around a lot. Then, one day, my teacher, Susie, asked me, “What do you want to do?” I had no answer for her. But suddenly, it came to me: marbles! I asked a few friends, and they were happy to join me. Now, I'm not suggesting you play marbles, only that you consider what you feel like doing and can make you happy. And one last idea: There's no harm in trying games your friends are playing that you think you won't like. You might just surprise yourself.Philip Galanes 41．Who is asking for advice?A．Alex Rider. B．Johnny Hayes. Galanes.

42．One of Philip's suggestions is to ______________. A．read a book
