I am 13 years old and in eighth grade. One day, when I was walking home from school, I saw some words on a fence(栅栏)of a house. It said, “Happiness is a direction, not a destination(终点).” I had been having a bad day and just reading this made me a little happier.
I saw the quote(格言) every day while walking home from school. One day I decided to write one of my favourite quotes on the fence for someone else to see. But when I came back to the fence, I saw another quote under mine. I added another, and we kept at this pattern for quite a while.
A few days later, when I was writing another quote on the fence, the old man, one of my neighbours, who owned the fence, saw me. He came out and I was afraid he would be angry with me. He was not known to be a friendly person. He looked at me angrily and then read the quotes on the fence. Without saying a word, he went back inside. I was terrified for a while, but when I went back to the fence, I noticed two words had been added: “Thank you.”
Later, I saw the old man in his front yard. He called me over and told me that he was glad to see that young people still had values. We are now good friends. I still don’t know who wrote that very first quote, but I’d like to say “thank you” to that unknown hero.
43. How did the author feel before he saw the words on the fence
A. Excited. B. Bored. C. Unhappy. D. Tired.
44. What does the underlined word “terrified” in the third paragraph mean
A. Afraid. B. Glad. C. Excited. D. Sad.
45. What did the old man do after he read the quotes
A. He shouted at the author. B. He wrote another quote on the fence.
C. He warned the author and went inside. D. He expressed his thanks in his own way.
46. What can we learn about the old man
A. He was the author’s new neighbour.
B. He knew who first wrote the words on his fence.
C. He was glad to see that young people had values.
D. He was known for his friendliness.

When a cake is brought to the table at a birthday party, it is usually decorated with candles. It is said that the tradition of lighting birthday candles was invented by the ancient（古老的）Greeks; it has taken on different meanings through the years. Today, one of the most popular birthday traditions is to blow out the candles all at once to make a secret wish come true.
In order to please Artemis, the goddess of the moon, the ancient Greeks arranged something special for birthdays. A moon-shaped cake was baked and decorated with lit candles. They thought the smoke from the candles would carry an offering(祭品) up into the sky, where they believed Artemis lived.
The tradition of lighting birthday candles continued in Europe, where candles were sometimes kept burning all day on a person’s birthday, partly as celebration and partly to keep away evil spirits. It was believed that the blowing out of candles represented one’s prayers(祈祷) to the gods. Some cultures believe it is a bad luck to blow out the candles until after the evening meal is eaten.
Traditionally, one candle represents a year of the person’s age. Some families prefer to add an extra candle for good luck. But that practice is improper when a very young child is celebrating a third birthday. Generally, older people’s birthdays are celebrated by placing just a few candles to represent, such as an eight for 80th birthday.
Today’s birthday candles are made in different shapes, like animals or flowers. One or two candles in the shape of numbers are sometimes used instead of lots of candles; for example, a four-shaped and a zero-shaped candle would represent 40.
47. Why did the ancient Greeks arrange something special for birthdays
A. To make their dreams come true. B. To celebrate a person’s birthday.
C. To protect themselves from evil spirits. D. To please the goddess of the moon.
48. What is the tradition of lighting candles for birthdays like in Europe
A. The candles were always kept burning all day on a person’s birthday.
B. The blowing out of candles represented one’s prayers to the god.
C. Some cultures believe it is right to blow out the candles before the evening meal.
D. The Europeans sometimes keep burning the candles all day just as a celebration.
49. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs
A. In some families, people would add an extra candle without any special meaning.
B. It is common to see a cake with four candles on a three-year-old child’s birthday.
C. Traditionally, people can use an eight-shaped and a zero-shaped candle to represent 80.
D. Usually one candle is placed on a cake for each year of the person’s age.
50. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. It is said that the ancient Greeks invented the tradition of celebrating birthdays.
B. The ancient Greeks believed that Artemis lived in heaven(天堂).
C. Lighting birthday candles hasn’t taken on any new meanings through the years.
D. The tradition of lighting candles for birthdays came from Europe.
C
With the fast development of China, is Putonghua becoming the preferred language Not anytime soon, says EF Education First, a company that works on English language training. Instead, English will keep its dominance(绝对优势). The British council(国会) reports that by 2020, two billion people will be studying English.
That study result is good news for English speakers like me, who have tried to learn a foreign language. It is reported that only 10% of native(本土的) Americans can speak a second language, compared(与…比较) to 56% of European Union citizens. At present English still seems to be the most basic language for global business success. In fact, as many as 100,000 native English speakers are teaching in China at present.
Here are some findings of EF’s study, which may have some implications (启示) for future global development. First, women speak better English than men. More and more women are going to colleges, and they often perform better in literacy classes than men. Second, international companies use English more than local ones. People there usually speak English at work. At last, people in European countries speak great English, Asian countries are in the middle, and everyone else falls behind. Scandinavians and the Dutch are the English-as-a-second-language superstars; as you move south through Europe, people’s English language ability goes down but is still good. Asian countries, led by Singapore and Malaysia, are at the middle level. And if you’re planning to visit Panama, Thailand or Libya, make sure you have your dictionary with you.
51. Where does the author probably come from
A. An Asian country. B. A native English-speaking country.
C. A European country. D. A Middle Eastern country.
52. What does the underlined sentence mean
A. More Chinese people study English now than before.
B. The EF Company has sent the most teachers to China.
C. Chinese people have the ability to speak a second language.
D. Chinese people learn English mainly through language training.
53. The purpose of listing the results of EF’s study is to ___________.
A. improve English language teaching
B. show which country’s people speak English best
C. give implications for future global development
D. find out which kind of company uses English most
54. Which is the right order, from high to low, when we talk about English speaking level
A. Singaporeans --- Libyans --- The Dutch. B. Libyans --- The Dutch --- Singaporeans.
C. Libyans --- Singaporeans --- The Dutch. D. The Dutch --- Singaporeans --- Libyans.
五、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题1分, 满分5分）
阅读下面短文，在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每格限填一词)。
Do you have trouble finishing your work within a given time Do you find yourself having to scramble(艰难完成) through your work because time is running out It is important to manage your time properly.
First, you should write down your tasks on paper. This is to make sure that you do not miss any of them. Having them written down somewhere ensures(确保) that you will get the task completed even if you forget about it. Of course, you need to make sure that the task list is always within your sight(视野). Make sure you have a clear view of your tasks. You can write them down in a diary.
After you have written down your tasks, it is time to plan your action. Which tasks need not be completed as urgently(急切地) How much time are you going to give each task I suggest that you complete the urgent tasks first, but at the same time, be sure to include some time to take breaks in between. The breaks ensure that you have a moment to run away from stress until you return to continue from where you left off.
Above all(最重要的是), however, don’t procrastinate(拖延，耽搁) because it is your number one enemy. Procrastination can also mean that you will not be as focused when you do your work. Time is valuable, so do not waste it by procrastinating. Focus on completing the task and get it over once and for all.
How to finish your work within a given time
Firstly * Write down your tasks on paper in order not to 55 any.
* Make sure you can 56 your task list at any time.
Secondly * Complete the urgent tasks.
* Leave some time for breaks to 57 yourself.
Most 58 * Don’t procrastinate or waste your 59 time.

According to some studies, 80 % of the brain receives information through the eyes. Color makes it easier for us to see things and encourages the memory to hold information.
Warm colors, such as red, orange and yellow, can increase the brain activity of students. Calm colors, such as blue and white, make students feel relaxed. Teachers can decorate the classroom to match either an active or a relaxed style of learning. Children that are over-active can use calm colors. Children that find it difficult to pay attention in class can use warm colors.
In general, warm colors are recommended for primary school classrooms. Calm colors are recommended for middle school and university classrooms.

Dear Nick,
As for your problem, I want to share my opinions with you.
As well as you and me, many other students suffer from great stress too. So there is no need to be too nervous about coming exams. Put them aside and clam yourself down. （I think it’s a good way to relax yourself by taking a walk after supper every day or doing some sports. ） Then, you should make a plan for your study, getting aware of what to do at any time. Putting heart into what you need to do will make sure you complete each task on time. Besides that, communication with your parents is also of importance. You can make yourself well understood. Last but not least, keeping confident about yourself will bring in good results.
I hope my advice will be of some value to you / worth taking.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Andrew

I am 13 years old and in eighth grade. One day, when I was walking home from school, I saw some words on a fence(栅栏)of a house. It said, “Happiness is a direction, not a destination(终点).” I had been having a bad day and just reading this made me a little happier.
I saw the quote(格言) every day while walking home from school. One day I decided to write one of my favourite quotes on the fence for someone else to see. But when I came back to the fence, I saw another quote under mine. I added another, and we kept at this pattern for quite a while.
A few days later, when I was writing another quote on the fence, the old man, one of my neighbours, who owned the fence, saw me. He came out and I was afraid he would be angry with me. He was not known to be a friendly person. He looked at me angrily and then read the quotes on the fence. Without saying a word, he went back inside. I was terrified for a while, but when I went back to the fence, I noticed two words had been added: “Thank you.”
Later, I saw the old man in his front yard. He called me over and told me that he was glad to see that young people still had values. We are now good friends. I still don’t know who wrote that very first quote, but I’d like to say “thank you” to that unknown hero.
43. How did the author feel before he saw the words on the fence
A. Excited. B. Bored. C. Unhappy. D. Tired.
44. What does the underlined word “terrified” in the third paragraph mean
A. Afraid. B. Glad. C. Excited. D. Sad.
45. What did the old man do after he read the quotes
A. He shouted at the author. B. He wrote another quote on the fence.
C. He warned the author and went inside. D. He expressed his thanks in his own way.
46. What can we learn about the old man
A. He was the author’s new neighbour.
B. He knew who first wrote the words on his fence.
C. He was glad to see that young people had values.
D. He was known for his friendliness.

When a cake is brought to the table at a birthday party, it is usually decorated with candles. It is said that the tradition of lighting birthday candles was invented by the ancient（古老的）Greeks; it has taken on different meanings through the years. Today, one of the most popular birthday traditions is to blow out the candles all at once to make a secret wish come true.
In order to please Artemis, the goddess of the moon, the ancient Greeks arranged something special for birthdays. A moon-shaped cake was baked and decorated with lit candles. They thought the smoke from the candles would carry an offering(祭品) up into the sky, where they believed Artemis lived.
The tradition of lighting birthday candles continued in Europe, where candles were sometimes kept burning all day on a person’s birthday, partly as celebration and partly to keep away evil spirits. It was believed that the blowing out of candles represented one’s prayers(祈祷) to the gods. Some cultures believe it is a bad luck to blow out the candles until after the evening meal is eaten.
Traditionally, one candle represents a year of the person’s age. Some families prefer to add an extra candle for good luck. But that practice is improper when a very young child is celebrating a third birthday. Generally, older people’s birthdays are celebrated by placing just a few candles to represent, such as an eight for 80th birthday.
Today’s birthday candles are made in different shapes, like animals or flowers. One or two candles in the shape of numbers are sometimes used instead of lots of candles; for example, a four-shaped and a zero-shaped candle would represent 40.
47. Why did the ancient Greeks arrange something special for birthdays
A. To make their dreams come true. B. To celebrate a person’s birthday.
C. To protect themselves from evil spirits. D. To please the goddess of the moon.
48. What is the tradition of lighting candles for birthdays like in Europe
A. The candles were always kept burning all day on a person’s birthday.
B. The blowing out of candles represented one’s prayers to the god.
C. Some cultures believe it is right to blow out the candles before the evening meal.
D. The Europeans sometimes keep burning the candles all day just as a celebration.
49. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs
A. In some families, people would add an extra candle without any special meaning.
B. It is common to see a cake with four candles on a three-year-old child’s birthday.
C. Traditionally, people can use an eight-shaped and a zero-shaped candle to represent 80.
D. Usually one candle is placed on a cake for each year of the person’s age.
50. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. It is said that the ancient Greeks invented the tradition of celebrating birthdays.
B. The ancient Greeks believed that Artemis lived in heaven(天堂).
C. Lighting birthday candles hasn’t taken on any new meanings through the years.
D. The tradition of lighting candles for birthdays came from Europe.
C
With the fast development of China, is Putonghua becoming the preferred language Not anytime soon, says EF Education First, a company that works on English language training. Instead, English will keep its dominance(绝对优势). The British council(国会) reports that by 2020, two billion people will be studying English.
That study result is good news for English speakers like me, who have tried to learn a foreign language. It is reported that only 10% of native(本土的) Americans can speak a second language, compared(与…比较) to 56% of European Union citizens. At present English still seems to be the most basic language for global business success. In fact, as many as 100,000 native English speakers are teaching in China at present.
Here are some findings of EF’s study, which may have some implications (启示) for future global development. First, women speak better English than men. More and more women are going to colleges, and they often perform better in literacy classes than men. Second, international companies use English more than local ones. People there usually speak English at work. At last, people in European countries speak great English, Asian countries are in the middle, and everyone else falls behind. Scandinavians and the Dutch are the English-as-a-second-language superstars; as you move south through Europe, people’s English language ability goes down but is still good. Asian countries, led by Singapore and Malaysia, are at the middle level. And if you’re planning to visit Panama, Thailand or Libya, make sure you have your dictionary with you.
51. Where does the author probably come from
A. An Asian country. B. A native English-speaking country.
C. A European country. D. A Middle Eastern country.
52. What does the underlined sentence mean
A. More Chinese people study English now than before.
B. The EF Company has sent the most teachers to China.
C. Chinese people have the ability to speak a second language.
D. Chinese people learn English mainly through language training.
53. The purpose of listing the results of EF’s study is to ___________.
A. improve English language teaching
B. show which country’s people speak English best
C. give implications for future global development
D. find out which kind of company uses English most
54. Which is the right order, from high to low, when we talk about English speaking level
A. Singaporeans --- Libyans --- The Dutch. B. Libyans --- The Dutch --- Singaporeans.
C. Libyans --- Singaporeans --- The Dutch. D. The Dutch --- Singaporeans --- Libyans.
五、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题1分, 满分5分）
阅读下面短文，在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每格限填一词)。
Do you have trouble finishing your work within a given time Do you find yourself having to scramble(艰难完成) through your work because time is running out It is important to manage your time properly.
First, you should write down your tasks on paper. This is to make sure that you do not miss any of them. Having them written down somewhere ensures(确保) that you will get the task completed even if you forget about it. Of course, you need to make sure that the task list is always within your sight(视野). Make sure you have a clear view of your tasks. You can write them down in a diary.
After you have written down your tasks, it is time to plan your action. Which tasks need not be completed as urgently(急切地) How much time are you going to give each task I suggest that you complete the urgent tasks first, but at the same time, be sure to include some time to take breaks in between. The breaks ensure that you have a moment to run away from stress until you return to continue from where you left off.
Above all(最重要的是), however, don’t procrastinate(拖延，耽搁) because it is your number one enemy. Procrastination can also mean that you will not be as focused when you do your work. Time is valuable, so do not waste it by procrastinating. Focus on completing the task and get it over once and for all.
How to finish your work within a given time
Firstly * Write down your tasks on paper in order not to 55 any.
* Make sure you can 56 your task list at any time.
Secondly * Complete the urgent tasks.
* Leave some time for breaks to 57 yourself.
Most 58 * Don’t procrastinate or waste your 59 time.

According to some studies, 80 % of the brain receives information through the eyes. Color makes it easier for us to see things and encourages the memory to hold information.
Warm colors, such as red, orange and yellow, can increase the brain activity of students. Calm colors, such as blue and white, make students feel relaxed. Teachers can decorate the classroom to match either an active or a relaxed style of learning. Children that are over-active can use calm colors. Children that find it difficult to pay attention in class can use warm colors.
In general, warm colors are recommended for primary school classrooms. Calm colors are recommended for middle school and university classrooms.

Dear Nick,
As for your problem, I want to share my opinions with you.
As well as you and me, many other students suffer from great stress too. So there is no need to be too nervous about coming exams. Put them aside and clam yourself down. （I think it’s a good way to relax yourself by taking a walk after supper every day or doing some sports. ） Then, you should make a plan for your study, getting aware of what to do at any time. Putting heart into what you need to do will make sure you complete each task on time. Besides that, communication with your parents is also of importance. You can make yourself well understood. Last but not least, keeping confident about yourself will bring in good results.
I hope my advice will be of some value to you / worth taking.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Andrew
