Brenda Bongos was a happy, artistic girl. She had one big ambition—to play the drums in a band. But one big problem lay in her way. To be good enough to play in a band, Brenda had to practice a lot, but she lived next-door to a lot of old people. Many of them are sick. She knew that the sound of beating drums would really get on their nerves. So, she had tried playing in the strangest places: a basement, a kitchen, and even in a shower. But there was always someone it would annoy. One day, while watching a science documentary on TV, she heard that sound cannot travel in space, because there's no air. At that moment, Brenda Bongos decided to become a sort of musical astronaut. With the help of a lot of time, books and work, Brenda built a space bubble. This was a big glass ball connected to a machine which sucked out all the air inside. All that would be left inside was a drum kit（成套设备） and a chair. Brenda got into the space suit she had made, entered the bubble, turned on the machine, and played those drums like a wild child. It wasn't long before Brenda Bongos came very famous. Many people came to see her play in her space bubble. Shortly afterwards she came out of the bubble and started giving concerts. Her fame spread so much that the government suggested that she be part of a unique space journey. Finally, Brenda was a real musical astronaut, and had gone far beyond her first ambition of playing drums in a band. Years later, when asked how she had achieved all this, she thought for a moment, and said: ''If those old people next – door hadn't mattered so much to me, I wouldn't have found a solution, and none of this would have ever happened.'' 1.Why did Brenda try to play in the strangest places? A. Because she didn't want others to hear her play. B. Because she didn't mean to disturb others. C. Because she didn't have her own room. D. Because she didn’t like her neighbors. 2.Brenda started to give concerts _______. A. after she practiced in her space bubble B. when she became part of the unique space journey C. after she became a real musical astronaut D. when people came to see her in the space bubble 3.Brenda became famous because _______. A. she was good at music and science B. she became a real musical astronaut C. she invented a special way of practice D. she played well and had a talent 4.Which of the following can be used to describe Brenda? A. Kind, hardworking and clever. B. Brave, kind and hardworking. C. Lovely, brave and kind. D. Nervous, kind and clever. 5.It can be inferred from the text that: " _______". A. He laughs best who laughs last B. It's never too old to learn C. Two heads are better than one D. One good turn deserves another

If you were on the street in Mexico today you might think you were in an operating room, surrounded by doctors. You could see many concerned people with masks (口罩) trying their best to stop the swine flu (猪流感). And the masks aren’t only being used in Mexico. A friend of mine traveling from New York City to Florida was given a mask and a pair of gloves just after he reached the airport. And another friend went to get a haircut only to be faced with a hairdresser wearing a mask! But do the masks really work? Is covering your nose and mouth the key to stopping the swine flu? To find out the truth, ABC’s reporter Sharyn Alfonsi talked with germ (细菌) expert Dr. Elaine Larsen. It turns out that when you sneeze (打喷嚏) the air coming out of your mouth at a speed of one hundred miles per hour carries germs which can travel anywhere around you and make people around you infected (被感染). However, whether you become infected actually depends on the weather. As Sharyn reported, when you sneeze, the germs leave your body in small drops of water coming out of your mouth. If the weather is wet, the wet air will make the small drops bigger and heavier and they drop down towards our feet. If this happens, we won’t become infected. But if the air is dry, those small drops can float higher up, making it possible for them to touch someone else’s nose, mouth or their mask. Larsen says the masks can stop the germs well but after a few hours, they start to get wet, holding a lot of germs they come across and causing you to breathe them in. The masks do work, but the key to stopping the germs is changing your masks often. 1.According to Para.1, in Mexico you can see that ____. A.the patients are treated in the open air B.some doctors work in the street C.people speak little to each other in the street D.many people wear masks in the street 2.According to the passage a patient spreads germs mainly through ____. A.breathing B.Speaking C.touching others D.sneezing 3.We learn from the passage that on a wet day ____. A.sick people will be infected B.germs can spread very far C.germs spread very quickly D.few people will be infected 4.If you keep wearing a mask for a long time, ____. A.the mask will be old and worn out B.you’ll love the feeling of wearing it C.germs will be kept away from you D.it will be easy for you to be infected 5.What should we pay attention to when wearing masks? A.Keeping the masks dry. B.Changing the masks often. C.Choosing very thick masks. D.Wearing big masks.

Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer. Working women with young children often face a dilemma(进退两难的困境) of whether to keep working or to quit to take care of their children. Though the fact that married women work outside the homes has become a social trend, many people still expect mothers to stay home until their children are two or three years old. In my opinion,it’s unfair to deprive(剥夺) mothers of their right to keep working only for the reason of childcare. Women also need a sense of achievement just like men. Working women often find it difficult to give up the chance of self-fulfillment(自我实现) and go back home to play the traditional role. The times that women should stay at home passed and we should not neglect(忽视) mothers’ desire to seek further goals outside the home. Besides, taking care of children is both parents’ responsibility(责任) rather than only mothers’. Children belong to the father and the mother. So it is unreasonable to ask mothers to give up their jobs for childcare because it is also fathers’ duty. Practically speaking, working mothers can help improve family finances. Though there’ll be extra expense for childcare service, working mothers have a steady income to help the family. Therefore, mothers’ working outside is good for the family, especially to those low-income ones. In a word, to expect mothers to put childcare before everything is not practical in today’s society. Only if fathers and mothers cooperate can the problem be solved. Title: 1.mothers

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet. Miss Joan enjoyed picking apples with her students. She smiled as she led her students to the bus that would take them to the Greenly Apple Orchard(果园). The bus stopped in front of the Greenly Apple Orchard and the class got off quickly and quietly. Mr. Greenly was there to greet them. "Let's see! There are eighteen children and two adults at three dollars each. That will be sixty dollars, please." Miss Joan held the brochure(小册子) in her hand. "It says that the price is two dollars each," she pointed out. "We've had to raise the price," Mr. Greenly stated. "You sent me this brochure after we made our reservation(预订)," Miss Joan complained, "and it says two dollars!" "Miss Joan, if you look at the bottom of this brochure," Mr. Greenly said, "you'll notice a very important statement." Sure enough, in very tiny letters, it said, "Prices are subject to change without notice." Miss Joan was determined to keep her good mood. She took three twenty-dollar bills out of her own purse and handed it to Mr. Greenly. "Now children, do you all have your baskets?" Miss Joan called out. "Remember, each of you can pick as many apples as possible." Mr. Greenly said, "You can't pick as many apples as possible." Miss Joan was not smiling now. "The brochure says, 'ALL YOU CAN PICK'!" Mr. Greenly pointed to the tiniest letters Miss Joan had never seen. It also said, "Terms and conditions of group reservations are subject to change without notice." Miss Joan's good mood was now history, so she said in a calm and quiet voice, "We are going home, give me our money back, please." 1.How much did Miss Joan think she should pay for picking apples at first? (no more than 3 words) 2.Why couldn't children pick as many apples as possible?(no more than 9 words) 3.What did Miss Joan do at last? (no more than 8 words) 4.How did Miss Joan feel from at first to at last? (no more than 8 words)
