    Being organized is an important skill for school and life．When you’re well organized, you can stay focused, instead of spending time hunting things down．  1.For schoolwork, it means having one notebook or place where you store all your assignments, so you know what you have to do and when．Keeping labeled folders（贴有标签的文件夹） for handouts（课堂讲义）and keeping all your schoolwork neat and in a specific place—these are the main parts of organization．

    For home stuff, being organized means having a place to put your things and putting them back as you go．  2.It means keeping your schoolbag, your shoes, and your clean underwear in the same places so you always know where to find them．

    Planning is part of being organized, too．  3.Calendars, lists, and schedules can help you plan．You can buy or draw a calendar and keep it near your workplace．Making a schedule or “to-do” list for yourself is a good idea．Looking at your list helps you keep track of what you need to do． 4.Check off things when you’ve done them．Use your list to help you decide which thing is most important to work on first．

5.But once you’re organized, it feels great．The less time you spend hunting around for things or panicking about homework, the more time you have for better things, like reading a good book or playing．

    A．Planning means deciding what you will do and when you will do it．

    B．First, you should get your schoolwork organized．

    C．Add new things as you get assignments．

    D．You will benefit a lot from a good habit．

    E．What does it mean to be organized?

    F．It takes some extra efforts to organize yourself and your stuff．

    G．It means hanging your coat up instead of dropping it on the floor or throwing it on a chair．

    It’s hardly surprising that weather is a favorite topic for so many people around the world---it affects where we choose to live, what we wear, our moods, and perhaps even our national characteristics．Studies have shown that changeable weather can make it difficult to concentrate, cloudy skies slow down reaction, and high humidity with hot, dry winds makes many people bad-tempered．

    If you live in a place like Britain, where the weather seems to change daily if not hourly, you could be forgiven for thinking that the weather is random．In fact, the weather is controlled by systems which move around areas of the globe．In the UK the weather depends on depressions, often called lows, and anticyclones, also known as highs．These systems start in the Atlantic Ocean, and make their way across the British Isles from the west to the east．Highs bring sunny weather, while lows bring rain and wind．In modern times, human activities seem to be altering weather patterns．Gases produced by heavy industry change the temperature of the Earth’s surface, and affect cloud formation．Some researchers say that factories in Europe and North America may have been one of the causes of the droughts in Africa in the 1980s．

    The human race has always tried to guess the weather, especially in areas of the world where there are frequent changes．Traditional rhymes point to early attempts to identify weather patterns, popular poems include:

    Red sky at night, shepherds’ delight; red sky in the morning, shepherds’ warning．

    Flies will swarm before a storm．

    Rain before 7, clear by 11．

    While folk wisdom can still provide a guide to help forecast weather, today’s methods of prediction increasingly rely on technology．Satellites, balloons, ships, aircrafts and weather centers with sensitive monitoring equipment, send data to computers．The data is then processed, and the weather is predicted．However, even this system cannot predict weather for longer than about a week．

1.When weather keeps changing, _____________．

    A．people become bad-tempered

    B．people’s reaction slows down

    C．people find it hard to focus on their work

    D．people become hungrier

2.What is mainly talked about in the second paragraph?

    A．Changes in weather．             B．Weather in Britain．

    C．African droughts．               D．Research on weather．

3.The weather in Britain is _______________．

    A．random         B．moist          C．depressing     D．satisfying

4.According to a traditional rhyme, if there is a red sky at night, the next day will be _______．

    A．windy          B．rainy          C．fine           D．snowy

5.Which of the following statements is true?

    A．Anticyclones often bring rain and wind．

    B．Weather forecasting has been done for a long time．

    C．Weather could never be predicted．

    D．Modern methods of weather prediction are developed from folk wisdom．

    Not long ago, the world’s lowest-priced car was launched（投放市场） in Mumbai, India．The Nano, made by Tata Motors, is expected to cause a transportation revolution for millions of Indian families．The small three-meter long car will cost 2,000 dollars, which is about half the price of similar cars．That is expected to make car ownership possible for more Indians．So it is being called “The People’s Car．”

    Ratan Tata, Tata Motors chairman, says, “It was never thought of as being the cheapest car but a car that would give the people of India an opportunity to own a car that had not been within their reach before．I hope that is what we will achieve．” Industry observers predict that soon roads throughout the country could be filled with Nanos．Tata, India’s top automaker, has done almost no traditional advertising of the Nano．However, early interest in the vehicle has been huge．The company says the Nano’s website has been visited 30 million times．

    Tata Motors says it will begin taking orders for the car on April 9^th both at car dealerships and on the Internet．However, the cars will not be ready for purchase（购买） until July．Demand is expected to be far greater than supply．Ratan Tata says the first 100,000 buyers of the car will be chosen by chance．The car is expected to be popular in industrial as well as developing nations．Experts say demand for low-priced automobiles is likely to increase as the international economic crisis continues．

    However, some critics say the new cars will increase India’s traffic and pollution problems．However, Tata company officials say the Nano will produce less pollution than any other car in the country．

1.The Nano is called “The people’s Car” because it _____．

    D．The tiniest car will be on sale．

    When the population of the port town began to suffer from poisoning, the police came to find the cause of the poison．They thought someone was poisoning the people on purpose but no one knew how it was possible．Soon people took the position that the pork was poisoned．It was a popular food everyone ate and it could have possibly made everyone sick．Anyone who had possession of pork would throw it out．Even the poorest of the poor wouldn’t eat pork．Signs were posted on poles and letters were sent to everyone to warn people of the pork．Shortly afterwards, even policemen in high positions were also getting sick．

    Soon it became political and popular．Politicians rushed to the town to talk about politics and promised how they would find the solution if they were elected．Everyone was so sick that they didn’t care about politics．Everyone was in a position where he or she didn’t know what to do anymore．They went to the post office to mail posts out asking for help．The poor town didn’t know how to deal with the situation．

    One day, a well-known scientist from New York came to the town with a huge box containing many instruments and his possessions．He went to pools and the port and made measurements．He was quiet and polite．Then one day he made a speech at a newspaper meeting-room to announce his findings．

    “I am sorry to say your water supply is so heavily polluted; it is poisoned．I know who has been poisoning you all for such a long time．It is you who have been poisoning yourselves with pollution．A great deal of rubbish has been thrown into the water day after day．No one here has taken good care of the environment．It is no wonder all of you have been sick．” Shocked at the news, the people present were lost in thought．

    C． a, e, b, d, c, f                                  D．f, c, d, b, e, a

2.Which of the following statements is correct?

    B．According to the scientist from New York, not all the population in the town have taken good care of the environment．

    C．The reason why the people in the town got sick was that they ate the pork poisoned by the heavily polluted water．

    D．if the people in the town hadn’t polluted the water supply, they would not have suffered from poisoning or sickness．

3.After reading the passage, we can infer that ________

    C．people in the town were not well-educated

    D．even some police officers were getting ill

    My sister and I shared a typical sisterly relationship: we couldn’t stand each other．Or, to be honest, she couldn’t stand me．I took her as a hero．My clothes mysteriously looked like hers, and even my words tended to copy those I heard from her．Any sort of talk we had usually became a fighting, and try as I might, my sister had an extra six years worth of rude vocabulary．

    After a while, I stopped trying to impress her and learned to be totally indifferent（冷漠的）；we soon fell into a sad pattern — I avoided her, she paid no attention to me, and deep inside, it hurt．She was only a sister in name．I truly believed that we would forever be apart, two housemates without conversation, two strangers without warmth．

    I still remember the day I learned to ride a bike．I had received the bike that Christmas, which was great, until I realized I had no idea how to ride it．My mom had long since abandoned any attempt to teach me; I had proved to be a frustrating student．I had to learn by myself, a little bit each day, but unsuccessfully．On that day I was so disappointed that I threw my bike aside and began to cry, I guess that was what caused my sister to come outside．At first I was nervous, as I thought she would begin to laugh at me．She did not．She gently picked my bike up．That was the beginning．She fearlessly held my hand while the tears dried on my cheeks．She never once let me fall．And for three hours — three wonderful hours — we learned to ride my bike．No shouting．No fighting．No arguing．

    That day I learned that my sister was human — how else could she have been my teacher? It was a life-changing experience．We still occasionally have our quarrels, but since that day, it’s been easier to get along because we have an unspoken respect for each other．

1.From the first paragraph, we can infer that _____．

3.What caused the writer to cry when she learned to ride a bike?

    A．She fell off the bike and hurt herself seriously．

    B．Her mother refused to buy her a bike．

    C．She couldn’t learn how to ride a bike by herself．

    D．Her sister laughed at her old bike．

    Sometimes I really doubt 1there is love between my parents．Every day they are very busy trying to earn money in order to pay the high tuition for my brother and me．They don’t act in the romantic ways  2I read in books or I see on TV．In their opinion, “I love you” is    3luxurious for them to say．Sending flowers to each other on Valentine’s Day is even more out of the question．Finally my father has a bad temper．When he’s very tired from the hard work, it is easy for him to lose his temper．

    One day, my mother was sewing a quilt．I silently sat down beside her and looked at her．

    “Is there love between you and Dad?” I asked her in a very low  4

    My mother stopped her work and   5her head with surprise in her eyes．She didn’t answer immediately．Then she bowed her head and continued to sew the quilt．

    I was very worried because I thought I had   6her．I was in a great embarrassment and I didn’t know what I should do．  7at last I heard my mother say the following words:

    “Susan,” she said    8, “Look at this thread．Sometimes it appears, but most of it disappears in the quilt．The thread really makes the quilt strong and durable．If life is a quilt, then love should be a thread．It can hardly be seen    9or anytime, but it’s really there．  10is inside．”

    I listened carefully but I couldn’t understand her   11the next spring．At that time, my father suddenly got sick seriously．My mother had to stay with him in the hospital for a month．When they returned from the hospital, they both looked very pale．It seemed both of them had had a    12illness．

    After they were back, every day in the morning and dusk, my mother helped my father walk slowly on the country road．My father had  13been so gentle．It seemed that they were the most harmonious couple．Along the country road, there were many beautiful flowers, green grass and trees．The sun gently glistened  14the leaves．All of these    15the most beautiful picture in the world．

    The doctor had said my father would recover   16two months．But after two months he still couldn’t walk    17．All of us were worried about him．

    “Dad, how are you feeling now?” I asked him one day．

    “Susan, don’t worry about me．” he said gently．“To tell you the truth, I just like walking with your mom．I like this kind of life．”   18his eyes, I know he loves my mother deeply．

    Once I thought love  19flowers, gifts and sweet kisses．But from this experience, I understand that love is just a thread in the quilt of our life．Love is inside,  20life strong and warm．．
