It's a cold, grey Sunday afternoon in March. The British are all working in their gardens. They're digging, cutting leaves and planting new seeds (种子)，By summer, their gardens will be full of bright colours. The British love their gardens. A British newspaper recently asked people for their opinions about them. Around 70% of the people felt it was important to spend time in the garden, and over 50% of these described gardening as the most enjoyable thing .they ever did. Only one in ten houses in Britain do not have a garden. People who live in houses without gardens often rent (租用) land from the government. At first, only very rich people had gardens. You can still see the gardens around houses with a long history, such as Chatsworth House or Castle Howard. In the early twentieth century, however, gardening became a hobby. People bought different kinds of seeds and plants for their gardens. Although roses, sunflowers and tomatoes are often grown in British gardens, they originally (起初) grew wild in other countries. Every year, there are competitions for the largest vegetables, but don't expect to win: Britain's biggest carrot is almost six metres long. 1.In summer, British gardens are often ______ A. full of people digging there B. colorful with different plants C. too hot for people to work there D. covered with grey leaves and plants 2.A recent survey showed that ______ of the British felt it important to do some gardening.A. around 70% B. over 50% C. only 20% D. about 10% 3.We can infer from Paragraph 4 that ________ A. seeds were provided for free B. roses were first grown in Britain C. gardening is a hobby in the world D. the owner of Chatsworth House was rich 4.What does the writer mean by the underlined sentence?

The teacher stood before his class of 30 students and was going to hand out the final exam papers. “I know how hard you have all worked to get ready for this test.” he said. “And because I know you are all able to understand these questions. I am ready to offer a B to anyone who would prefer not to take the test.’’ A number of students jumped up to thank the teacher and left the classroom. The teacher looked at the rest students and said. “Does anyone else want to get a B? This is your last chance. ”Two more students decided to go. Seven students stayed. The teacher then handed out the papers. There were only three sentences on the paper： Congratulations! You have received an A in this class. Keep believing in yourself. I never had a teacher who gave a test like that, but I think that it is a test that any teacher could and should give. Students who do not have confidence in what they have learned are B students at most. The same is true for students in real life. The A students are those who believe in what they are doing because they have learned from both successes and failures. They have learned life’s lessons whether from school education or from events in their lives, and have become better people. Scientists say that by the age of eight, 80% of what we believe about ourselves has already been formed. You are a big kid now and you realize that you have some limits(局限). However, there is nothing you can’t do or learn to be. Sir Edmund Hillary, the first person to reach the top of Mount Qomolangma (珠穆朗玛峰)said, “We do not conquer the mountain, but ourselves.” 1.Some students left the classroom because_____ .

American and British people both speak English of course. But sometimes it does not seem like the same language. In fact, there are some important differences between British English and American English. 1.Often, Americans don’t say each word separately. They say several words together. Americans may say “I dunno” instead of “I don’t know”. Or they may say “Whaddya say?” instead of “What did you say?” However, the British are more careful in their speech. They usually say all the words and keep them separate. Sound is not only the difference between British English and American English. Words sometimes have different meanings too.2.Americans drive trucks, but in England people drive lorries. 3.In England, if you are going to telephone your friends, you “phone them up”. In America, you “give them a call”. There are also some differences in grammar. For example, Americans usually use the helping verb “do” when they ask a question. They say “Do you have a storybook?” But the British often leave out the helping verb.4. Most languages are like this. Languages change over time. When people live in separate places, the languages change in different ways. This is what has happened to English. It can also happen to other languages, such as French. Many people in Canada speak French but their French is very different from the French of France. 阅读上面短文，从下面选项中选择合适的句子填入文中空白处，有一项为多余选项。 A.They say “Have you a storybook?” B.It can also happen to other languages, such as French. C.For example, the vocabulary for cars and driving is very different. D.First of all, they sound very different. E.Many expressions are also different in the two countries.

He gave a confident performance of traditional Syrian songs. “We only heard the sound of a mortar (迫击炮). It fell near us. Many buildings fell down. That is all I remember,” said Youssef. “Music makes me forget everything. Music is the most important thing.” Basma, director of Action for Hope, said the music school offers strength to the children who suffer (遭受) from the war.
