From art to music, Buku is a unique festival in the summer. With a post-industrial setting as the background and offering electronic music and hip hop, Buku succeeds as a true festival experience. Catch up on your sleep—with the all-night shows in the city of New Orleans, you need to get some rest.

Tickets: $65 — $149 Camping: No

As a little girl, one of my favourite family traditions was held on the first day of May. Along with my sister, my mother and I would make simple rower baskets by making paper into cones (圆锥形). Then, we filled the bottom of the cone with small candies before putting some flowers into it
With our May Day baskets in hand, my sister and I became anonymous gift-givers. After hanging a basket on the front door of a neighbor or friend, we rang the doorbell and ran away. The goal was to remain secret givers.
Historically, the first day of May, often referred to as “May Day”, has been recognised as a celebration of spring, of life and growth. Parades (游行) and dances are ways that the day has been — and continues to be — celebrated in many parts of the world. Although formal May Day celebrations may be less common now, it is always worth celebrating. Here are some simple and lovely ways to celebrate May Day in our homes and with those we love:
Making a May Day basket is always a great choice. Although the May Day basket we made as children was simple, the making of the basket was a joy in itself. Consider making or buying some flowers for friends. Fill the basket with a few sweets and write a note thanking your friend or neighbour for their kindness, their presence, and their love.
On May Day, we also take flowers to a local hospital or nursing home. Flowers are always welcome in places that are too often full of sadness. Stopping to have a conversation with a patient and thanking a nurse would be an additional gift — to the receiver and to us!
Besides, we always give friends small gifts to celebrate May Day. A small book or magazine with a note, an art print celebrating spring — the choices are endless. When your friends are far away, an unexpected gift can reawaken friendship across the miles.
4．The underlined part “anonymous gift-givers” refers to people who ________.
A．are serious about gift-giving
B．don't know the value of gifts
C．are careful about every small detail
D．give gifts but don't want their names to be known
5．What do we know about May Day from the passage
A．It is celebrated all over the world.
B．The date of its celebration has changed.
C．It traditionally celebrates the arrival of spring.
D．There is an increase in formal May Day celebrations.
6．In the author's eyes, May Day is a great chance to ________.
A．express thanks B．visit faraway friends
C．read a book or magazine D．stay with family members
7．What is the passage mainly about
A．The history of May Day. B．Great family traditions.
C．Celebrating May Day. D．Flowers for festivals.
C
I was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled(贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.
War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, “Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!” Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.
The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute without a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled(爬) under her covers, weeping. Obviously, that was something she should not go through alone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart.
Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn’t noticed Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me. “Thanks.”
Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn’t always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.
8.What made Kate angry one evening
A. She couldn’t find her books.
B. She heard the author shouting loud.
C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.

A. she was scared by Kate’s anger
B. she hated herself for being so messy
C. she wanted to show her care
D. she was asked by Kate to do so
10.How is Paragraph 1 mainly developed
A. By analyzing causes. B. By showing differences.
C. By describing a process. D. By following time order.
11.What might be the best title for the story
A. My Friend Kate B. Hard Work Pays Off
C. How to Be Organized D. Learning to Be Roommates
D
I travel a lot in my work, and what I dislike about my job is eating alone. It always makes me feel lonely to see others laughing and talking. So, room service for several nights was a better choice for me.
After having room service three nights at a hotel in Houston, however, I needed to get out of my room. Although the restaurant opened at 6:30, I arrived at 6:25. The waiter at the front desk made a comment about my “being there really early”. I explained my dislike of eating alone in restaurants. He then seated me at a lovely table and asked me whether I would mind if he sat down with me for a while.
I was glad! He sat and talked with me about his career goals and the difficulty of being at work on nights, weekends and holidays. He said he hadn’t enough time to be with his family. After 15 minutes, he saw some customers at the front desk and excused himself. I noticed that before he went to the front desk, he stopped in the kitchen for a moment.
Then another waiter came out of the kitchen and had a wonderful chat with me. Before I left that night, some other waiters, even the cook, had come out of the kitchen and sat with me!
When I asked for my bill about one hour later, all the people who had sat down with me came over in a big group to my table, and presented me with a red rose. And I cried! What had begun as a lonely night ended as a beautiful experience.
12. The reason why the author hated to eat in the hotel restaurant is that the author didn’t like ____________.
A. the discomfort caused by eating alone
B. being disturbed by the noises around
C. meeting strangers in the restaurant
D. being pointed at or laughed at
13. How did the waiter feel when he saw the author come in at 6:25
A. Dissatisfied. B. Pleased. C. Surprised. D. Angry.
14. From the third paragraph, we can learn that the waiter at the front desk ____________.
A. knew how to attract more customers to his restaurant
B. found it hard to balance his work and his family
C. was getting tired of his present job
D. had never had such a chance to talk about his worries
15. The author wants to tell us that ____________ .
A. people can get help for their loneliness
B. restaurants should put the need of customers first
C. the kindness of strangers can make you less lonely
D. restaurants are full of surprises

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
It should come as no surprise that the more stressed parents are at work, the greater the burden on their family is. 16． After all, the more time parents spend working, the less time and energy they have to plan and prepare healthful meals. Previously, most studies have focused on the role of working mothers while fathers were ignored. 17． It adds a new wrinkle to the relationship between work stress and family nutrition. Mom’s work related stress is still a central factor in how well families eat because they typically do most of the food shopping and cooking. 18．
The study finds that when mom or dad experience high levels of work related stress, their families are eating one-and-a-half fewer family meals per week, and the parents themselves report eating fewer fruits and vegetables, more fast food, and are less likely to eat breakfast regularly.
It’s worth noting that the study looks mainly at low income families who belong to ethnic or minority groups. 19． But the implications are wide-ranging.
20． Teaching kids, especially teenagers, to help with grocery shopping and to cook actual meals, instead of just putting a frozen pizza in the microwave, could be an important piece of the puzzle in helping families improve their eating habits.
A．But dad’s work related stress has a large impact, too.
B．As to family nutrition, the entire family plays a role, even kids.
C．Yet, the kid’s stress may affect the families’ nutrition, too.
D．So the findings don’t necessarily apply directly to other types of families.
E.It’s also probably not a surprise that this can negatively affect a family’s nutrition.
F.Now, a study looks at the family as a whole and at the role of fathers in particular.
G.It is parents who give their kids a good model to develop a good eating habit.

Nowadays there’s a common phenomenon that when senior three students finish school, most of their reference books are 41 (throw) away, which are still in good condition. 42 a great waste it is!
I strongly suggest that students should recycle all these reference books. On the one hand, 43 (recycle) them can save a lot of 44 (nature) resources, 45 I think are used to make textbooks. On the other hand, the notes in the books are helpful to whoever 46 (need) them.
As a matter of fact, recycling textbooks has been 47 (increasing) popular in such 48 (country) as America and Australia. We should learn from them, and make every effort to build 49 energy-saving society. From where I stand, it is sure to be quite 50 (benefit) to our present and our future.

Recently, our school has held the meaningful discussion on whether it is reasonable for middle school students to have classes on weekends. Some of our classmates believes we should have classes on weekends because we can make fully use of free time to review the lessons we had learnt. The others are against the opinion, saying we had better to have a good rest on weekends so that we can work effective during the weekdays. The rest agree with neither of the opinion. They have the view that keeping the balance between work and play are important for us. They suggest one day of the weekends should used to learn our lessons and on the other day, we should do something interested or have a rest.
