阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。
A
Today the word friendship has been used so often that it has lost its meaning. Some jokingly or seriously say that friends are made to be used. It makes me sad.
True friendship doesn’t mean that when you need your friend’s help, you will invite him to dinner, and that when you have to get out of trouble, you will get your friends in great trouble.
In fact, true friendship is communication and understanding of the hearts.
True friendship is like pared with good wine, water is tasteless, but is of great help when we are thirsty. True friends don’t need to be with each other every day, but are connected in heart every minute.
True friendship is like medicine. Though it doesn’t taste good, it cures your illness. True friends give you some suggestions even if they know you would not take. They criticize(批评)when others have a good word for you, not because of envy(嫉妒)but worrying that you may lose your cool head.
True friendship has nothing to do with fame, power, or money. True friends would often watch you silently far away when you are influential, but come to you whenever you need their help. You are not their stepping-stone(进身之阶) to success, but are their crutch(拐杖)to live through difficulties.
True friends make you complete. Many people go along with you through your life—your parents, your husband or wife, and your children, who take care of you and make your life happy. However, you still need someone who understands your thoughts and souls. Without them, you are likely to be unhealthy in spirit.
True friends stay in your heart, rather than at your side; they know you more than yourself, and try to better you.
21. The writer feels sad because some people _____________.
A. don’t have friends B. don’t understand friendship
C. make wrong friends D. criticize their friends.
22. The writer speaks of water because _____________.
A. it has no taste B. it is important to our life
C. it is easy to get D. it stays with us every day.
23. The underlined word “influential” in Paragraph 6 means “_________”.
A. powerful B. busy C. helpful D. quiet
B
China is a land of bicycles. At least it was back in 1992 when I travelled the country. Back then everyone seemed to be riding a bicycle. Millions of them, all black. Cars were rare(罕见). Yet, since my arrival in Beijing last year, I’ve found there are millions of cars. However, people still use their bicycles to get around. For many, it’s the easiest and cheapest way to travel today. Bicycles also come in different colors—sliver, green, red, blue, yellow, whatever you want.
It’s fun watching people biking. They rush quickly through crossroads, move skillfully through traffic, and ride even on sidewalks. Bicycles allow people the freedom to move about that cars can’t provide.
Eager to be a part of this Chinese culture, I bought a bicycle. Since the weather was great that day, I couldn’t wait to jump up on my bicycle and started for home.
My first ride home was orderly(守秩序的). To be safe, I stayed with a pack of bikers while cars on the streets appeared suddenly now and then. I didn’t want to get hit. So I took the ride carefully.
Crossing the streets was the biggest problem. It was like crossing highway back in the United States. The streets here were wide, so crossing took time, skill and a little bit of luck.
I finally made it home. The feeling on the bicycle was amazing. The air hitting my face and going through my hair was wonderful. I was sitting on top of the world as I passed by places and people. Biking made me feel alive.
24. According to the writer, why are bicycles still popular in China today
A. Because they are traditional and safe.
B. Because they are fast and don’t pollute the air.
C. Because they are colorful and available(可以得到的).
D. Because they are convenient(方便) and in expensive.
25. The writer decided to buy a bicycle because he intended __________.
A. to ride it for fun B. to experience local culture
C. to use it for transport D. to improve his riding skill
26. How did the writer feel about his street crossing
A. It was boring. B. It was lively
C. It was difficult. D. It was wonderful.
27. Which of the following best describes(描写) the writer’s biking experience
A. The writer enjoyed showing off his biking skills.
B. The writer took great pleasure in biking.
C. The writer was praised by other bikers.
D. The writer was annoyed by the air while riding.
C
Did you know that the color of sports suits can influence(影响)the performance of an athlete It may sound strange, but a study suggests this might be true.
Two British scientists studied the results of four sports in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games where the athletes had been given either a red or a blue sports suit. They discovered that when there was a big difference in the score, color had no influence on the result. But if it is a close match, the athlete in a red sports suit was more likely to win. Then they looked at the sports suits of the soccer team at the Euro 2004 championship. Again, teams wearing red won more games.
The two scientists got their idea from earlier studies of wild animals. It had been discovered that when a male shows red on its body, it sends a signal(信号)of it power and strength. For example, in many kinds of monkeys, the more the male shows off its red scars(伤疤) the more females it can attract.
Based on (根据)this fact, the British scientists thought that the idea might work for humans, too. According to them, when an athlete sees a competitor in a red sports suit, he gets a feeling that his competitor could be stronger than him. And that kind of feeling may have a bad influence on the player’s performance in the actual game. Although the idea is interesting, most people don’t accept that color signals in the animal world can really be useful to human sports. They think that it is unreasonable to develop an idea based on such a small number of examples. Much more research has to be done to prove(证明)the influence of sports suit colors on the performance of athletes.
28. What did the scientists find out about the 2004 Athens Olympic Games:
A. Athletes played equally well in four sports.
B. Game results had a big influence on the athletes.
C. Athletes dressed in red scored more in a close match.
D. There was a big difference in red and blue team’s scores.
29. What may be the red scars of a male animal suggest
A. It is quite strong. B. It is a failure.
C. It is more powerful than other males. D. It has attracted a lot of females.
30. The underlined part “ that kind of feeling” in Paragraph 4 refers to a feeling of _________.
A. weakness B. pride C. danger D. shame
31. What is most people’s view on scientists’ idea
A. Interested B. Satisfied C. Doubtful D. Thankful.
D
Earthquakes are something that people fear. There are some places that have few or no earthquakes. Most places in the world, however, have them regularly. Countries that have a lot of earthquakes are usually quite mountainous.

Strong earthquakes are not always the ones that kill the most people. In 1755, one of the strongest earthquakes ever recorded was felt in Portugal.

One of the worst earthquakes ever was in China in 2008. It killed a large number of people. The worst earthquake ever reported was also in China, which happened in 1556.
Earthquake worries people a lot. The reason is that we often do not know when they are coming. People can’t prepare for earthquakes.

Dear Jenny,
How nice to hear from you! In your letter you asked me how to keep healthy. I would like to give you some advice.
As we know, we teenagers grow very fast, so we need plenty of nutritious foods, such as fish, beans fresh fruit and vegetables. You should not eat too much meat or too many sweets. Also, you should take physical exercise regularly instead of studying all the time. For example, you can play basket ball or swim after school. What’s more, having enough sleep is very important. So I advise you to have at least eight hours every day and not to stay up too late. Only in this way can we keep fit.
Yours,
Lihua
