“Smile!” I shouted, holding a yellow sign up on a busy street in Seattle. We are three thousand miles away from home on a Random Acts of Kindness and Volunteerism Road Trip. We had two aims. One was to try out our new “Smile!” signs and see how much kindness and joy we could spread in Pike Place Market. The other was to raise $80 by doing street performances, enough for gas to Portland and a small hotel room.
We weren't sure how people would react to our signs. I nervously raised up our signs and shouted, “Hi, there!” to a young couple. They looked over and felt confused. Then they read our signs and broke into a smile. Before long, some tourists wanted to take a photo with us and some strangers stopped to ask us about our signs.
In fact, we paid so close attention to our “Smile!” project that we forgot the other aim. Before we knew it, the sun was setting, and we had no money for our trip to Portland. We sat down to watch a blind musician play the guitar while thinking about what to do. He was packing up when a passing crowd kicked down his change bowl. He stumbled (绊倒) into the crowd. We rushed to help him, but another man moved more quickly to help him.
Once the musician had his money safely returned, we ran over to meet the strange helper and said, “We just wanted to praise you for your good deed.” He smiled, looking at our signs. “Your trip reminds me of something similar I once did when I was young,” he said, “Look! I'd like to donate (捐赠).” We told him, “No, thanks! We are fine. We've collected plenty of money.” We lied. “Please let me donate. It will make me feel like I'm a part of this adventure,” he insisted. And then the stranger opened his wallet and pulled out four $20 bills. The money was exactly what we had intended to raise that day. We were astonished. It seemed as if he had known somehow.
24.What's the main purpose of the road trip
A.To spread kindness and joy.
B.To invite more people to join in the trip.
C.To raise money for a trip to Portland.
D.To encourage people to take happy photos.
25.How did people react to the “Smile!” signs later
A.Disappointed. B.Worried.
C.Interested. D.Moved.
26.According to the last paragraph, why did the strange helper want to donate money
A.Because he felt pity for the author.
B.Because he wanted to join in the project.
C.Because he hoped to help the homeless.
D.Because he felt sorry for his impoliteness.
27.What does the underlined word “astonished” in the last paragraph most probably mean
A.Tired. B.Satisfied.

Being in the school's science lab can be exciting, because you're doing something different from sitting at your desk listening to your teacher. But fun as lab work is, you have to observe the safety rules if you don't want to hurt yourself or your lab partner.
The first rule is to behave responsibly in the laboratory at all times. When your teacher is showing you lab equipment, listen to what he is telling you, because some of the equipment can be dangerous. Become familiar with your lab assignment (任务) before you start doing it. This means reading everything the teacher has written down and asking questions if you don't understand an instruction or a term. Do not try to work alone. If your partner is absent, let your teacher know so she can assign another student to work with you. And don't do any other experiments other than what you have been assigned. Wear your lab apron (围裙) and safety goggles (护目镜) whenever you are working on a lab assignment. On lab days, wear old clothing that you won't mind getting damaged. Make sure this clothing covers as much of your skin as possible. Keep your hands away from your skin, face, eyes and mouth when you are working with dangerous chemicals. You will be working with fire in the lab with an alcohol lamp. Use gloves when handling hot lab equipment. If you have long hair, pull it back in a ponytail (马尾辫) and roll up long sleeves. Don't put paper, chemicals, lab equipment or any part of your body in the flame. When you use a sharp instrument, treat it with care. Do not point it at yourself or any one of your fellow classmates during the experiment.
28.If you don't follow the safety rules, you will probably ________.
A.be laughed at B.lose your life
C.hurt yourself D.fail in the experiment
29.The underlined word “observe” in Paragraph 1 means “________”.
A.follow B.watch
C.notice D.report
30.Having long hair can be dangerous when you ________.
A.roll up long sleeves
B.use an alcohol lamp
C.use a sharp instrument
D.work with dangerous chemicals

Laptop (便携式) computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains, airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.
Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork at anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1,500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a $10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110 year old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e mail to “speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the more important of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to the computer lab. They can work with it at home, in a fast food restaurant or under the trees — anywhere at all.
Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptops used in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries, and other resources. State higher education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are testing laptop programs at other universities as well.
At Westlake college, more than 60 percent of the staff use the computers. The laptops will allow teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, “Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we are giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”
32.The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to ________.
A.access the Internet B.use for their schoolwork
C.work at home D.connect them to libraries
33.Which of the following is TRUE about Westlake College
A.All teachers use computers.
B.1,500 students have laptops.
C.It is an old college in America.
D.Students there can do everything.
34.A window on the world in the last paragraph means that students can ________.
A.attend the lectures on information technology
B.travel around the world
C.have free laptops
D.get information from around the world
35.What can we infer from the passage
A.The program is successful.
B.The program is not workable.
C.We don't know the result yet.
D.The program is too expensive.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The cheerful girl, Jenny, with golden hair was almost five. Waiting with her mother at the checkout stand, she saw a necklace of shining white pearls in a pink metal box. Quickly the mother checked the back of the little metal box and then looked back into the begging blue eyes of her little girl's upturned face. “A dollar and ninety five cents. That's almost $2. If you really want it, I'll think of some extra housework for you and in no time you can save enough money to buy it for yourself. Besides, you might get another dollar bill from Grandma on your birthday a week away.”
After dinner back home, she did more housework and even she asked the neighbor for housework for ten cents. On her birthday, Grandma did give her another new dollar bill and at least she had enough money to buy the cheap necklace from the dime store (廉价商店).
Jenny loved her pearl necklace. She wore it everywhere. The only time she took it off was when swimming.
Jenny had a very loving daddy and every night when she was ready for bed, he would stop whatever he was doing and come upstairs to read her a story. One night when he finished the story, he asked Jenny, “Do you love me?”
“Oh, daddy. You know that I love you.”
“Then give me your necklace.”
“Oh, daddy, not my pearl necklace. But you can have my Barbie doll — the one you gave me. She's my favorite.”
“That's okay, Honey. Daddy loves you. Good night.” And he brushed her cheek with a kiss.
Daddy repeated the same request about a week after the story time. However, Jenny refused and wouldn't give up her necklace to her daddy.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;

One possible version:
A few nights later when her daddy came in, Jenny was sitting on her bed, waiting for her father. As he came home, he noticed her lips were trembling and tears rolled down her cheeks. “What's it, Jenny What's the matter?” Jenny didn't say anything but lifted the metal box up with her little hand to her daddy. And when she opened it, there was her little pearl necklace. With a little trembling voice, she finally said, “Here, daddy. It's for you.” She gave her treasure to her father eventually.
With tears in his own eyes, Jenny's kind daddy reached out one hand to take the cheap necklace. Meanwhile, with the other hand he reached into his pocket and pulled out a blue box with a necklace made of natural pearls and gave it to Jenny. He had had it all time. He was just waiting for her to give up the cheap necklace made of artificial pearls so he could give her a real valuable treasure. Jenny was very glad to take the necklace and a big smile appeared on her face. She said, “It's very kind of you, dad!”Unit 3 CELEBRATIONS【过习题】

“Smile!” I shouted, holding a yellow sign up on a busy street in Seattle. We are three thousand miles away from home on a Random Acts of Kindness and Volunteerism Road Trip. We had two aims. One was to try out our new “Smile!” signs and see how much kindness and joy we could spread in Pike Place Market. The other was to raise $80 by doing street performances, enough for gas to Portland and a small hotel room.
We weren't sure how people would react to our signs. I nervously raised up our signs and shouted, “Hi, there!” to a young couple. They looked over and felt confused. Then they read our signs and broke into a smile. Before long, some tourists wanted to take a photo with us and some strangers stopped to ask us about our signs.
In fact, we paid so close attention to our “Smile!” project that we forgot the other aim. Before we knew it, the sun was setting, and we had no money for our trip to Portland. We sat down to watch a blind musician play the guitar while thinking about what to do. He was packing up when a passing crowd kicked down his change bowl. He stumbled (绊倒) into the crowd. We rushed to help him, but another man moved more quickly to help him.
Once the musician had his money safely returned, we ran over to meet the strange helper and said, “We just wanted to praise you for your good deed.” He smiled, looking at our signs. “Your trip reminds me of something similar I once did when I was young,” he said, “Look! I'd like to donate (捐赠).” We told him, “No, thanks! We are fine. We've collected plenty of money.” We lied. “Please let me donate. It will make me feel like I'm a part of this adventure,” he insisted. And then the stranger opened his wallet and pulled out four $20 bills. The money was exactly what we had intended to raise that day. We were astonished. It seemed as if he had known somehow.
24.What's the main purpose of the road trip
A.To spread kindness and joy.
B.To invite more people to join in the trip.
C.To raise money for a trip to Portland.
D.To encourage people to take happy photos.
25.How did people react to the “Smile!” signs later
A.Disappointed. B.Worried.
C.Interested. D.Moved.
26.According to the last paragraph, why did the strange helper want to donate money
A.Because he felt pity for the author.
B.Because he wanted to join in the project.
C.Because he hoped to help the homeless.
D.Because he felt sorry for his impoliteness.
27.What does the underlined word “astonished” in the last paragraph most probably mean
A.Tired. B.Satisfied.

Being in the school's science lab can be exciting, because you're doing something different from sitting at your desk listening to your teacher. But fun as lab work is, you have to observe the safety rules if you don't want to hurt yourself or your lab partner.
The first rule is to behave responsibly in the laboratory at all times. When your teacher is showing you lab equipment, listen to what he is telling you, because some of the equipment can be dangerous. Become familiar with your lab assignment (任务) before you start doing it. This means reading everything the teacher has written down and asking questions if you don't understand an instruction or a term. Do not try to work alone. If your partner is absent, let your teacher know so she can assign another student to work with you. And don't do any other experiments other than what you have been assigned. Wear your lab apron (围裙) and safety goggles (护目镜) whenever you are working on a lab assignment. On lab days, wear old clothing that you won't mind getting damaged. Make sure this clothing covers as much of your skin as possible. Keep your hands away from your skin, face, eyes and mouth when you are working with dangerous chemicals. You will be working with fire in the lab with an alcohol lamp. Use gloves when handling hot lab equipment. If you have long hair, pull it back in a ponytail (马尾辫) and roll up long sleeves. Don't put paper, chemicals, lab equipment or any part of your body in the flame. When you use a sharp instrument, treat it with care. Do not point it at yourself or any one of your fellow classmates during the experiment.
28.If you don't follow the safety rules, you will probably ________.
A.be laughed at B.lose your life
C.hurt yourself D.fail in the experiment

Laptop (便携式) computers are popular all over the world. People use them on trains, airplanes, in airports and hotels. These laptops connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, laptops also connect students to their classrooms.
Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork at anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1,500 students at the college will receive a laptop. The laptops are part of a $10 million computer program at Westlake, a 110 year old college. The students with laptops will also have access to the Internet. In addition, they will be able to use e mail to “speak” with their teachers, their classmates, and their families. However, the more important of the laptop program is that students will be able to use computers without going to the computer lab. They can work with it at home, in a fast food restaurant or under the trees — anywhere at all.
Because of the many changes in computer technology, laptops used in higher education, such as colleges and universities, is workable. As laptops become more powerful, they become more similar to desktop computers. In addition, the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet, but also libraries, and other resources. State higher education officials are studying how laptops can help students. State officials are testing laptop programs at other universities as well.
At Westlake college, more than 60 percent of the staff use the computers. The laptops will allow teachers to use computers in their lessons. As one Westlake teacher said, “Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we are giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”
32.The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to ________.
A.access the Internet B.use for their schoolwork

A.attend the lectures on information technology
B.travel around the world
C.have free laptops
D.get information from around the world
35.What can we infer from the passage

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The cheerful girl, Jenny, with golden hair was almost five. Waiting with her mother at the checkout stand, she saw a necklace of shining white pearls in a pink metal box. Quickly the mother checked the back of the little metal box and then looked back into the begging blue eyes of her little girl's upturned face. “A dollar and ninety five cents. That's almost $2. If you really want it, I'll think of some extra housework for you and in no time you can save enough money to buy it for yourself. Besides, you might get another dollar bill from Grandma on your birthday a week away.”
After dinner back home, she did more housework and even she asked the neighbor for housework for ten cents. On her birthday, Grandma did give her another new dollar bill and at least she had enough money to buy the cheap necklace from the dime store (廉价商店).
Jenny loved her pearl necklace. She wore it everywhere. The only time she took it off was when swimming.
Jenny had a very loving daddy and every night when she was ready for bed, he would stop whatever he was doing and come upstairs to read her a story. One night when he finished the story, he asked Jenny, “Do you love me?”
“Oh, daddy. You know that I love you.”
“Then give me your necklace.”
“Oh, daddy, not my pearl necklace. But you can have my Barbie doll — the one you gave me. She's my favorite.”
“That's okay, Honey. Daddy loves you. Good night.” And he brushed her cheek with a kiss.
Daddy repeated the same request about a week after the story time. However, Jenny refused and wouldn't give up her necklace to her daddy.
