It was my 21st birthday and I wanted to have an unforgettable night. So I arranged to have a party at this famous hotel. It was a warm evening in the middle of August, but because it was raining heavily outside we had to stay in the hotel all night. There were a lot of guests at the party and the room was packed. I was dancing when I saw the smoke. People began to panic, but there were so many of us that we couldn't get out quickly. Soon the room was full of smoke. I managed to open a window and get out of the burning building. The fire fighters arrived shortly after, but it took a long time for them to put out the fire. Luckily, all the guests got out in time. Some of them had to go to hospital because of burns and breathing problems. Fortunately, the fire fighters had put out the fire before it spread to the rest of the hotel. However, the room where the party was held was completely destroyed. I was told later that it was because the building had been struck by lightning. Can you believe it

My school appeared on the news last week because we had made an important change in our local area.Our class had planted a large garden where there was once only a vacant lot.It was a lot of work but it was all worth it.I got blisters (水疱) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.
I learned a lot about gardening and teamwork, and then I learned about the media.Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had done.She spoke with the producer.The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours.They wanted to know what was special about our garden, because many schools planted gardens.
The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie (大草原), we had made a prairie garden.We had been to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them.We did not water the garden, but we did weed it.We decided to let nature water it with rain, because that was how prairies grew in the past.We sent a picture of the garden to the news station.In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.
As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school.The reporter interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden.After that, the headmaster interviewed us, and explained to him what we had learned through this project.
That night, we watched the news, and there we were.The news reporter told our story.It was only two minutes long, but it was us.We were famous.All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it.We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己所在的班级在学校种植了一个草原花园。同学们从中学到了很多的知识，还受到了电视台的采访报道。

Grown ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since.A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water.He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away.He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son.A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows：Once we have learned something, additional learning experiences increase the length of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them.We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks.We not only learn but overlearn.
The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.
The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course.By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned.A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.
语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。文章用例证法说明了“过度学习”的概念，最后作者谈到了“过度学习”的好处和“突击学习”的弊端。

A children raising game called “Chinese Parents” has gained popularity among Chinese players recently with its real life setting and realistic plots.Released on September 29, this online game has received over 13,000 comments on Tencent WeGame and Steam, two popular gaming platforms in China, in less than a month, according to data from the two platforms.
“Why not re experience the joy of changing your life through the game？” said Sun Shoubin, a 28 year old in the city of Zibo in east China's Shandong Province.He spent almost all his spare time on the game as soon as he downloaded it.
Players are responsible for cultivating their fictitious children online.During the lifetime of these children, they must make vital choices for them just like Chinese parents do in real life, such as choosing extra curricular classes, deciding their majors in universities, and even finding marriage partners for them.A “child's” physical condition, IQ level, and imagination can be improved by attending courses arranged by the player “parents” in each round of the game.
“From the game, I also learned that ongoing efforts can bring about great changes to our lives，” Sun said.“I can understand my parents more, and show my appreciation for the hardships they have overcome for raising and training me.”
Chinese parents are more likely to plan almost everything for their children.Social issues about Chinese parents families, and education of children tend to arouse heated discussions.“I integrated these ideas into the game, creating a sense of ‘rebirth’ for players and driving them to experience a virtual child rearing life through entertainment，” said Yang Geyilang, the game producer.
Some negative comments were also made by the game players.“This game is somewhat controversial，” a player named Producer Kahn commented, highlighting that although exams are important, we cannot regard the scores as the only standard to judge a child, which has become a routine for many Chinese families.
语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了热门游戏“中国式家长”，在游戏中，玩家负责在网上培养他们虚构的孩子，并列举了玩家对游戏的评价，引发了玩家对中国式教育的思考。
32．Why is the game so popular
A．Because the game can help players change life.
B．Because the setting and plots are real to life.
C．Because of the popular gaming platforms Tencent WeGame and Steam.
D．Because the game received many comments in a short time.
解析：选B 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的A children raising game called ‘Chinese Parents’ has gained popularity among Chinese players recently with its real life setting and realistic plots.可知，“中国式家长”是凭借真实的场景和逼真的情节而广受欢迎的。由此可推断出，这个游戏如此受欢迎是因为它的场景和情节都是源于真实的生活。故选B。
33．How do players play the game
A．Organize classes for player “parents”．
B．Make vital choices like selecting their “children” majors.
C．Raising their own “children” in the virtual world.
D．Experience the joy of changing lives.
解析：选C 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的Players are responsible for cultivating their fictitious children online.可知，玩家是通过在虚拟世界中抚养自己的“孩子”的方式来玩这个游戏的。故选C。
34．What's the author's attitude to this game
A．Objective. B．Subjective.
C．Favorable. D．Negative.
解析：选A 推理判断题。在文章中，作者分别引用了两位游戏玩家Sun Shoubin和Producer Kahn对游戏的看法，根据Sun Shoubin的话可知，Sun Shoubin对游戏的看法是支持的。再根据Producer Kahn可知，Producer Kahn对这个游戏的看法是不支持的。作者只是客观的陈述了不同玩家对游戏的评论，由此可推断出，作者对这款游戏的态度是客观的。故选A。
35．What does the passage mainly tell us
A．Players are given an opportunity to re experience life.
B．Chinese games can also hit popular gaming platforms.
C．A game leads to new parent teen relationship in China.
D．Chinese players test parental skills in the virtual world.

56．beginning 句意：随着高中生活的开始，我现在感到有点焦虑。分析句子可知，前半句为with的复合结构，在整个句子中作伴随状语，名词词组my high school life和begin之间是主动关系，应用现在分词，故填beginning。

58．talks 句意：但是我想知道我是否会交到朋友，或者如果没有人跟我说话怎么办。结合语境和wonder可知，此处为一般现在时，分析句子可知，talk是本句的谓语，主语no one是第三人称单数，故填talks。

63．really 句意：我真想告诉他安静点，让我一个人待会儿！分析句子可知，设空处修饰动词wanted作状语，应用副词形式，故填really。
64．a 句意：总之，第一天是美好的一天。分析句子可知，day为可数名词，并且前面有形容词修饰，表示泛指“美好的一天”，应用不定冠词，且wonderful的发音以辅音音素开头，故填a。

Dear Wang Qiang，
I'm sorry to know that you become addicted to computer games recently.I feel quite worried about you.Now I'm writing to offer you some advice, hoping you can get rid of this bad habit soon.
As far as I'm concerned, it is no good addicting yourself in computer games since spending too much time online does harm to your health and makes it very difficult to focus on schoolwork.Therefore, I'd like to recommend that you take up a new hobby such as running or playing football.Besides, it might be a good idea if you join a school club, where you can take part in all kinds of activities and make new friends.In this way, you will be attracted to your wonderful school life instead of getting lost in a virtual world.
I hope you will take my suggestions into consideration.Looking forward to your good news.
Yours，

Rigo had a loud voice.People were always telling Rigo to be quiet.His mother would tell him to use his quiet voice inside the house because the baby was asleep.His father would ask him to speak quietly in the car so that he could concentrate on his driving.His teacher would tell him to talk quietly so he would not bother others who were studying.
Not only did he have a loud voice, but Rigo liked to talk a lot.Whenever he had time, he would talk with his classmates, sharing everything he considered fun.He liked to yell and shout.Sometimes he just yelled, “Hey！” for no reason.He liked the sound of his very loud voice for he thought it had more penetrating (穿透的) power than that of an actor.But not everyone felt the same way.
When Rigo shouted goodbye as he left for school, his mother shook her head, “Rigo! Be quiet！” When his father drove him to school, Rigo said, “Hey! There's Chris！” He pointed at his friend, who was walking to school.His father shook his head.“Rigo, use a quiet voice in the car.” At school, his teacher talked to him three times about using his quiet voice.His classmates shook their heads, throwing an upset look at him when he talked aloud.
Later, Rigo had to sit by himself for a while.His teacher wanted him to practice being quiet.Rigo had to sit quietly for five minutes.It felt like five hours or five days.When the five minutes was up, Rigo went to his desk and sat quietly.It was not easy.
After school, Rigo was waiting for his father when he saw Chris again “Hey！” he yelled.“Chris! Hey！” The headmaster was walking by.Rigo was sure he was going to get in trouble for his loud voice.He looked quickly at the ground.Maybe the headmaster would keep walking.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
The headmaster stopped and looked at Rigo.
He said goodbye to the headmaster and ran to get in his father's car cheerfully.
参考范文：
The headmaster stopped and looked at Rigo.He waited at the roadside until Rigo raised his head.Confusingly, it seemed as if the headmaster had found a great treasure.Rigo twisted uneasily.“Do you like acting？” asked the headmaster.“I've never seen an actor who speaks louder than you.You're sure to become an extraordinary actor.” “Me An extraordinary actor？” Rigo couldn't believe his ears.“Yes, you，” the headmaster said.“A good actor must be able to speak aloud on the stage to make himself heard by everyone of his audience.You can do that！” At that moment, Rigo saw his father.“By the way, a good actor knows he should use his quiet voice off the stage，” added the headmaster.
He said goodbye to the headmaster and ran to get in his father's car cheerfully.“Dad, the headmaster said I was going to become an extraordinary actor！” he yelled proudly.The next second, he seemed to remember what the headmaster had told him, and lowered his voice, “Yes, I know when to speak at a loud voice.” His father was surprised at his change.Rigo then told him what happened just now and promised he would practice speaking quietly.Pleased, his father smiled, “Yes, you're to become an extraordinary actor, for yourself, and for the headmaster.”

My school appeared on the news last week because we had made an important change in our local area.Our class had planted a large garden where there was once only a vacant lot.It was a lot of work but it was all worth it.I got blisters (水疱) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.
I learned a lot about gardening and teamwork, and then I learned about the media.Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had done.She spoke with the producer.The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours.They wanted to know what was special about our garden, because many schools planted gardens.
The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie (大草原), we had made a prairie garden.We had been to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them.We did not water the garden, but we did weed it.We decided to let nature water it with rain, because that was how prairies grew in the past.We sent a picture of the garden to the news station.In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.
As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school.The reporter interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden.After that, the headmaster interviewed us, and explained to him what we had learned through this project.
That night, we watched the news, and there we were.The news reporter told our story.It was only two minutes long, but it was us.We were famous.All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it.We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.
24．What seemed to be the TV directors' first reaction to the garden
A．They were excited.
B．They were surprised.
C．They were uninterested.
D．They were worried.
25．What is special about the garden
A．The seeds came from the plants of a prairie.
B．The grass grew faster than common grass.
C．We sent a picture of it on the Internet.
D．Underground water was used for the plants
26．What does the underlined word “that work” refer to in the last paragraph
A．Our blisters on our hands.
B．Our hard work planting the garden.
C．The garden we planted.
D．The news we watched.
27．What can you learn from the passage
A．All roads lead to Rome.
B．Never too late to learn.
C．Practice makes perfect.
D．Hard work pays off.

Grown ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since.A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water.He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away.He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son.A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
One explanation is the law of overlearning, which can be stated as follows：Once we have learned something, additional learning experiences increase the length of time we will remember it.
In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them.We continue to listen to and remind ourselves of words such as “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks.We not only learn but overlearn.
The multiplication tables (乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things we overlearn in childhood.
The law of overlearning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination, though it may result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course.By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon to forget almost everything he learned.A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary for one's future development.
28．What's the main idea of Paragraph 1
A．Stories for children are easy to remember.
B．Children have a better memory than grown ups.
C．Poem reading is a good way to learn words.
D．People remember well what they learned in childhood.
29．The author explains the law of overlearning by .
A．presenting research findings
B．setting down general rules
C．using examples
D．making a comparison
30．According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is .
A．a result of overlearning
B．a special case of cramming
C．a skill to deal with math problems
D．a basic step towards advanced studies
31．What is the author's opinion on cramming
A．It leads to failure in college exams.
B．It's helpful only in a limited way.
C．It's possible to result in poor memory.
D．It increases students' learning interest.

A children raising game called “Chinese Parents” has gained popularity among Chinese players recently with its real life setting and realistic plots.Released on September 29, this online game has received over 13,000 comments on Tencent WeGame and Steam, two popular gaming platforms in China, in less than a month, according to data from the two platforms.
“Why not re experience the joy of changing your life through the game？” said Sun Shoubin, a 28 year old in the city of Zibo in east China's Shandong Province.He spent almost all his spare time on the game as soon as he downloaded it.
Players are responsible for cultivating their fictitious children online.During the lifetime of these children, they must make vital choices for them just like Chinese parents do in real life, such as choosing extra curricular classes, deciding their majors in universities, and even finding marriage partners for them.A “child's” physical condition, IQ level, and imagination can be improved by attending courses arranged by the player “parents” in each round of the game.
“From the game, I also learned that ongoing efforts can bring about great changes to our lives，” Sun said.“I can understand my parents more, and show my appreciation for the hardships they have overcome for raising and training me.”
Chinese parents are more likely to plan almost everything for their children.Social issues about Chinese parents families, and education of children tend to arouse heated discussions.“I integrated these ideas into the game, creating a sense of ‘rebirth’ for players and driving them to experience a virtual child rearing life through entertainment，” said Yang Geyilang, the game producer.
Some negative comments were also made by the game players.“This game is somewhat controversial，” a player named Producer Kahn commented, highlighting that although exams are important, we cannot regard the scores as the only standard to judge a child, which has become a routine for many Chinese families.
32．Why is the game so popular
A．Because the game can help players change life.
B．Because the setting and plots are real to life.
C．Because of the popular gaming platforms Tencent WeGame and Steam.
D．Because the game received many comments in a short time.
33．How do players play the game
A．Organize classes for player “parents”．
B．Make vital choices like selecting their “children” majors.
C．Raising their own “children” in the virtual world.
D．Experience the joy of changing lives.
34．What's the author's attitude to this game
A．Objective. B．Subjective.
C．Favorable. D．Negative.
35．What does the passage mainly tell us
A．Players are given an opportunity to re experience life.
B．Chinese games can also hit popular gaming platforms.
C．A game leads to new parent teen relationship in China.
D．Chinese players test parental skills in the virtual world.
