Long ago, little attention was paid to a person’s birthday. Even though everyone knew that people grew older, they had no way of correctly marking time. It wasn’t until the early people learned more about how time passed that they made a note of time changes. Then they developed a calendar and began to celebrate (庆祝) special events such as birthdays. When birthdays first started to be celebrated during the early days, common people, especially children, hardly celebrated their birthdays.
Today, birthdays are celebrated by the young and the old alike all around the world. Many countries have different customs from ours of celebrating birthdays. At the same time there are a lot of people that celebrate birthdays in quite similar ways as we do. Some of the countries are very similar to the United States, such as Austria, Denmark, Ireland, Sweden and Switzerland.
Customs within countries can be affected by things like language, religion, geographic location (位置), and economic conditions. No matter what the customs are, however, they are always followed by the majority of the people in each country. For example, not all children in the US have birthday parties, candles or birthday cakes, but most of them do.
However, the reasons why we celebrate birthdays and use different symbols are very much the same to everyone. The reason why we have birthday parties goes back to long time ago. At that time people believed that good and bad spirits appeared when a child was born and influenced that child through his / her life. The belief brought about the custom of having birthday parties. They believed that surrounding the birthday person with friends, family and good wishes would frighten the bad spirits away.
64. According to the passage, when did people begin to celebrate birthdays
A. When they learned that no one could stop time.
B. Before they invented a calendar.
C. Before they learned how time went by.
D. After they had a right way of marking time.
65. We can guess that in the early days, _________.
A. only grown-up people celebrated their birthdays
B. only old people celebrated their birthdays
C. only people in the upper class celebrated their birthdays
D. people only celebrated birthdays for children
66. Which of the following will NOT affect birthday customs according to the passage
A. Religion. B. Education.
C. Economic conditions. D. Language.
67. At first, people had birthday parties to _____.
A. bring good luck
B. get rid of bad luck
C. honor the important day
D. express their wishes
Ｄ
Malaria makes thousands of people ill every year and kills a large number. It is carried from one person who has it to another by mosquitoes (蚊子), and it spreads quickly if there are mosquitoes. If there is no mosquito, there is no problem.
On the island of Cyprus (塞浦路斯) there used to be a lot of malaria, but there is very little now. There were millions of mosquitoes there in the past, and they laid eggs on any standing water they could find. More and more insects (昆虫) appeared, and the danger increased.
The people of the island acted wisely. They drained (排水) away all the standing water and left the ground dry. This took some time, but when it was done, the mosquitoes had no place to lay their eggs. Their number decreased year after year and at last none remained. Then malaria died away.
It is possible to prevent malaria. If there are large numbers of mosquitoes, every one ought to sleep under a mosquito net. Then nets will prevent the mosquitoes from biting people when they are asleep, and they will not get malaria. People used to take quinine (奎宁), and they often remained free from malaria. What is quinine How was its value discovered Here is an old story about it, which may or may not be true. 68. From the passage we can infer that “malaria” is a kind of ______.
A. blood B. drink C. disease D. tool
69. Mosquitoes can live well in places where ______.
A. there is a lot of standing water
B. there are a lot of people
C. there is a lot of flowing water
D. there are many ill people
70. The next paragraph will probably talk about ______.
A. mosquitoes B. malaria C. quinine D. flies
71. What’s the best title of the passage
A. Mosquitoes.
B. Mosquitoes and people.
C. Malaria.
D. Malaria and mosquitoes.

Five years ago, I was sent to a better middle school. For me, everything there was new and strange. After I had been there for two months, there was an important test in the middle of the term. It covered all my courses. In that test, I didn’t get a good grade, but most of my classmates got an A or A-.
It made me upset for a long time. I felt everything in the world was changing. I thought my classmates were all better than me. During those days I was very unhappy.
One day, my aunt, after talking with my teachers, talked to me. She told me to think about what I had done in the past and what I should do in the future. I was shocked by her words. I thought about what I had done during the past months, and I found I had done nothing to improve my grades. I thought I should work harder.
After that, I paid more attention to the teachers’ talking in the classes, and I asked my teachers or my classmates when I didn’t understand something. I studied very late at night when I met with difficult problems. Most of all, I came to understand the importance of taking notes in class. As a result, I did better in some tests.
About three months later, the most important test came at the end of the term. This time, I stood out not only in my class but also in the grade. From then on, I have tried to do my best when I do something because I know if I want something, I should work hard for it.

A. She punished him for not working hard.
B. She helped him find out the reasons for his poor performance.
C. She forced him to work harder.
D. She asked his teachers to talk with him about his problems.
74. Which of the following studying methods helped the writer most
A. Asking teachers for help when in difficulty.
B. Working deep into the night every day.
C. Making notes in class.
D. Listening to every word his teachers said.
75. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean
A. The writer failed again in the exam.

During the summer holiday, I took a trip to the moon. It was an exciting and unforgettable experience. When we took off, we felt we were pressed onto our seats because of the gravity. But a few seconds later, after we got out of the atmosphere, we felt much better and were flying like birds in the capsule.
When the spaceship arrived on the moon , we got out of it. To my surprise, I made a step much farther than I did on the earth. When I jumped, I could jump higher, too. It was so interesting. I also saw the beautiful sight on the moon, which I had never seen on the earth before.
It was such a great trip that I look forward to taking another space trip again.

Long ago, little attention was paid to a person’s birthday. Even though everyone knew that people grew older, they had no way of correctly marking time. It wasn’t until the early people learned more about how time passed that they made a note of time changes. Then they developed a calendar and began to celebrate (庆祝) special events such as birthdays. When birthdays first started to be celebrated during the early days, common people, especially children, hardly celebrated their birthdays.
Today, birthdays are celebrated by the young and the old alike all around the world. Many countries have different customs from ours of celebrating birthdays. At the same time there are a lot of people that celebrate birthdays in quite similar ways as we do. Some of the countries are very similar to the United States, such as Austria, Denmark, Ireland, Sweden and Switzerland.
Customs within countries can be affected by things like language, religion, geographic location (位置), and economic conditions. No matter what the customs are, however, they are always followed by the majority of the people in each country. For example, not all children in the US have birthday parties, candles or birthday cakes, but most of them do.
However, the reasons why we celebrate birthdays and use different symbols are very much the same to everyone. The reason why we have birthday parties goes back to long time ago. At that time people believed that good and bad spirits appeared when a child was born and influenced that child through his / her life. The belief brought about the custom of having birthday parties. They believed that surrounding the birthday person with friends, family and good wishes would frighten the bad spirits away.
64. According to the passage, when did people begin to celebrate birthdays
A. When they learned that no one could stop time.
B. Before they invented a calendar.
C. Before they learned how time went by.
D. After they had a right way of marking time.
65. We can guess that in the early days, _________.
A. only grown-up people celebrated their birthdays
B. only old people celebrated their birthdays
C. only people in the upper class celebrated their birthdays
D. people only celebrated birthdays for children
66. Which of the following will NOT affect birthday customs according to the passage

Malaria makes thousands of people ill every year and kills a large number. It is carried from one person who has it to another by mosquitoes (蚊子), and it spreads quickly if there are mosquitoes. If there is no mosquito, there is no problem.
On the island of Cyprus (塞浦路斯) there used to be a lot of malaria, but there is very little now. There were millions of mosquitoes there in the past, and they laid eggs on any standing water they could find. More and more insects (昆虫) appeared, and the danger increased.
The people of the island acted wisely. They drained (排水) away all the standing water and left the ground dry. This took some time, but when it was done, the mosquitoes had no place to lay their eggs. Their number decreased year after year and at last none remained. Then malaria died away.
It is possible to prevent malaria. If there are large numbers of mosquitoes, every one ought to sleep under a mosquito net. Then nets will prevent the mosquitoes from biting people when they are asleep, and they will not get malaria. People used to take quinine (奎宁), and they often remained free from malaria. What is quinine How was its value discovered Here is an old story about it, which may or may not be true. 68. From the passage we can infer that “malaria” is a kind of ______.
A. blood B. drink C. disease D. tool
69. Mosquitoes can live well in places where ______.
A. there is a lot of standing water
B. there are a lot of people
C. there is a lot of flowing water
D. there are many ill people

I thought about what I had done during the past months, and I found I had done nothing to improve my grades. I thought I should work harder.

I studied very late at night when I met with difficult problems. Most of all, I came to understand the importance of taking notes in class. As a result, I did better in some tests.
About three months later, the most important test came at the end of the term. This time, I stood out not only in my class but also in the grade. From then on, I have tried to do my best when I do something because I know if I want something, I should work hard for it.

During the summer holiday, I took a trip to the moon. It was an exciting and unforgettable experience. When we took off, we felt we were pressed onto our seats because of the gravity. But a few seconds later, after we got out of the atmosphere, we felt much better and were flying like birds in the capsule.
When the spaceship arrived on the moon , we got out of it. To my surprise, I made a step much farther than I did on the earth. When I jumped, I could jump higher, too. It was so interesting. I also saw the beautiful sight on the moon, which I had never seen on the earth before.
It was such a great trip that I look forward to taking another space trip again.
