There was a famous church(教堂) in London. It was 110 meters high. The center of the church was like a bell. The ceiling of the church was painted by a famous artist.

Life comes in a package. This package includes happiness and sadness, failure and success, hope and despair. Life is a learning process. Experiences in life teach us new lessons and make us a better person. With each passing day we learn to deal with various situations. Love plays a main role in our life. Love makes you feel wanted. Without love a person could become cruel(残忍的). In the early stage of our life, our parents are the ones who show us with love and care. They teach us about what is right and wrong, good and bad. But we don’t always care about it. It is only after marriage and having kids that a person understands others’ feelings. Happiness can bring people a peaceful mind. No mind is happy without peace. Sadness is the cause of the death of a loved one or the failure. But all of these things will pass away. Failure is the way to success. It helps us to touch the sky, teaches us to survive and shows us a specific way. Success brings in money, pride and self-respect. Hope is what keeps life going. Parents always hope their children will do well. Hope makes us dream. Hope builds in patience. Life teaches us not to despair even in the darkest hour, because after every night there is a day. Life teaches us not to regret(后悔) over yesterday, for it has passed and is out of our control. Tomorrow is unknown, for it could either be bright or dark. So the only choice is to work hard today, so that we will enjoy a better tomorrow. 1.We usually have to accept _______ if we want to be successful. A. love B. failure C. sadness D. hope 2.In which section can readers probably read the passage? A. Business. B. Travel C. Lifestyles. D. Education. 3. What does the word “despair” mean in Chinese? A. 颓废 B. 遗憾 C. 悲伤 D. 绝望 4.What’s the meaning of the last sentence of the whole passage? A.When choosing between “today” and “tomorrow”, you’d better enjoy tomorrow. B. If you work hard today, you’ll have a better life in the future. C. What you can only choose is to work hard today rather than tomorrow. D. The only choice you make is that you should enjoy a better tomorrow. 5.What’s the purpose of the passage? A. To encourage people to love each other. B. To tell people how to deal with happiness and sadness. C. To give readers some information about life. D. To remind people to keep having a beautiful dream.

任务型阅读（10分）（共10题，每题1分） 阅读下面短文，根据所读内容，在文章后第1～10小题的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。 注意：每个空格只填一个单词。 Now students’ English handwriting gets worse and worse. Their teachers worry about that. Is your English handwriting beautiful? If not, here are four steps that really work. Use paper with lines Using paper with lines can keep you writing straight instead of up or down when you write English words or sentences. Those lines on the paper can help you to write words in the right size. Be sure to fill the lined space completely. And remember to write those capital(大写) letters properly. Slow down If your writing is hard to read, try slowing down a little. For some kids, going a little slowly makes the handwriting clear. If you write too fast, it’s hard for you to stop where you should, and even worse, you may make more mistakes. Hold your pencil correctly When you hold your pencil correctly, writing is much easier. Some kids press down really hard when they write. That makes the handwriting not nice. Try to be relaxed and don’t hold the pencil so hard. Let your writing appear nice and clean. If you do so, people will guess you are a student with a good habit. Draw more pictures Drawing can make your handwriting better. You need to use the skills to control your pencil better when you are drawing pictures. Even though（即使）you have no chance to draw at school, you can practice by yourself at home. Handwriting is very important. Imagine（想像）you are a world-famous movie star or a well-known sports player, what do you do when your fans run up to you? Give them your autographs（亲笔签名）, of course!

阅读表达（10分）阅读短文后回答问题。（共5题，每题2分） Kyra Komac, 28 years old, now has 25 furniture（家具）stores all over the country. The new store, in London's Camden High Street, takes her back to where it all started. She tells us about how the business began. When I was little, my mother began selling flowers in Camden Market. She couldn't leave me at home on my own, so I had to go to the market with her. To begin with, I didn't have to do anything. I just sat there, and my mum told me jokes and stories so I didn't get bored. When I got older, I gave my mum a hand and I really enjoyed it. Then, one year, my grandma gave me a book for Christmas. It was all about making candles and I loved it. I was 14, and I didn't have to go to the market any more because mum could leave me at home on my own. I spent my free time making candles of all shapes and sizes. I made hundreds of them. One day, my mother was ill so I had to go to the market on my own. I decided to take some candles with me and see if I could sell them. They were sold out in twenty minutes! The next week, my mum gave me some money to buy some wax（蜡）to make more candles. They sold out really quickly, too. Nine months later, we decided to stop selling flowers. My mum and I couldn't make enough candles during the week, so some of my school friends started to give us a hand. I paid them one pound for every candle, and we used to sell them for three or four times that. It was fun and my friends worked with me in the market. At the age of 22, my uncle lent me some money and I opened my first shop in Portobello Road. Since then, I've never looked back, even in difficulties. In the first store, we only sold candles, but now we sell everything from furniture to paintings. Oh, and candles, of course. Answer the following questions with No More Than 8 Words 1.How many furniture stores does Kyra Komac have now? 2.Where did Kyra's mother sell flowers? 3.What did Kyra do in her free time when she was fourteen? 4.Who helped when Kyra and her mum couldn't make enough candles? 5.How did Kyra's uncle help her to open her first shop?
