into this house.
Little Roy ran around the new house 17 and tried to move his own
things—his toys and books into the house. Suddenly, his little hand knocked over a
bottle of paint on the shelf. The paint made the tidy floor and white wall a terrible

We spent the whole afternoon 23 and laughing. The wall became a
beautiful forest with plants, birds and small animals. Blue sky and white clouds were
painted by Roy. On that day, we all knew something 24 happened.

阅读下列短文，从 26~40各题所给的 A、B、C和 D项中选出最佳选项。
(A)
Students these days often have a lot of worries. Sometimes they have problems
with their schoolwork, and sometimes with their friends. ▲ Some people
think the worst thing is to do nothing. Laura Mills, a teenager from Washington,
agrees. “Problems and worries are normal in life,” says Laura. “But I think talking to
someone helps a lot. If we don’t talk to someone, we’ll certainly feel worse.”
Laura once lost her purse, and worried for days. She was afraid to tell her parents
about it. She even walked three miles to school each day because she didn’t have any
money. She just kept thinking. “If I tell my parents, they’ll be angry!” But in the end,
she talked to her parents and they were really understanding. Her dad said he
sometimes made careless mistakes himself. They got her a new purse and asked her to
be more careful. “I will always remember to share my problems in the future!” Laura
says.
Robert Hunt advises students about common problems. He feels the same way as
Laura. “It is best not to avoid our problems. We should always try to solve them.” He
thinks that you can first find someone to talk to. This person doesn’t need to be an
expert like himself. Students often forget that their parents have more experience than
them, and are always there to help them.
In English, we say that sharing a problem is like cutting it in half. So you’re
halfway to solving a problem if you talk to someone about it!
26. Which of the following can be put in the blank ▲ in Paragraph One
A. What can they do about this
B. Where do the problems come from
C. When did they have these problems
D. Why do they have so many problems
27. In Paragraph 2, the writer used the story of Laura to ______.
A. answer a question B. give an example
C. introduce his friend D. share his experience
28. According to the passage, Robert Hunt might be ______.
A. Laura’s teacher B. the writer of the passage
C. a person with a problem D. an expert on students’ problems
29. What is the main idea of this passage
A. Few children are careful with their money.
B. Parents are more experienced than children
C. Talking to someone helps to solve problems.
D. Students often have a lot of worries at school

(B)
Mom was cooking in the kitchen. She could hear the girls arguing in the living
room. It was the third time this week that the sisters had been arguing over nothing. A
few minutes later, Maria rushed into her bedroom angrily and closed the door heavily.
“Come to the kitchen, young lady,” Mom firmly said to Maria in her best mother tone
of voice.
Maria walked into the kitchen and shouted, “I can’t stand living with Felicia
another minute. I don’t ever want to talk to her again!”
Mom called out, “Felicia, come to the kitchen right now.”
While Felicia was on her way, Mom put two chairs opposite each other but very
close together.
“Maria, you sit here and Felicia you sit there.” The girls sat face to face, with
their knees almost touching. “Now you look each other in the eye for five minutes,”
Mom ordered.
At first the girls moved their bodies from side to side. Mom said firmly, “You
must stay staring at each other for five minutes. Each minute you don’t make eye
contact means another minute sitting in the chairs. ” They both wanted out, so they
had to sit there and look at each other.
Felicia looked at Maria’s pouting (噘嘴的) face while Maria looked at Felicia’s
angry face. They each thought the other one looked ridiculous (可笑的). In fact, they
were being ridiculous to fight and be mad at each other over nothing.
Soon Maria couldn’t stand it any longer and began giggling (咯咯地笑) and so
did Felicia. They giggled and laughed.

(D)
It’s been 100 years since the actor and filmmaker Charlie Chaplin produced the
film The Kid, which many consider to be his greatest one.
Like all films at the time, The Kid was made in black and white and was silent
(made without any sound, not even the characters talking). The story is about the
relationship between “the Tramp”, played by Chaplin, and his adopted (领养的) child,
played by Jackie Coogan. The pair develop a partnership where the six-year-old boy
breaks windows and runs away, so that Chaplin’s character can offer his services as a
window fixer.
Although the film is a comedy, it also has some tragedy, reflecting Chaplin’s own
life. He started testing actors for the role of the Kid just a few days after his baby son
had died. Chaplin was known for being hard to please, and it is said that if he could,
he would have played every role in every one of his films. When Chaplin visited a
theatre, a dancer brought his son, Jackie Coogan, on stage, and Chaplin knew he had
his co-star (联袂主演者). Chaplin later wrote, “All children in some form have talents;
the trick is to bring it out in them. With Jackie it was easy.”
Like the Kid in the film, Chaplin and his brother Sydney grew up very poor.
They lived in London and were raised by their mother. When Chaplin was 10 years
old, his mum became too ill to look after her sons, so they had to take care of
themselves. He later wrote that the film sets in The Kid were based on the places
where he and Sydney had lived with their mother as children. “Perhaps that’s why the
film had some truth,” he said.
37. The second paragraph mainly talks about ________.
A. why The Kid was made B. when The Kid was on
C. how The Kid got successful D. what The Kid is about
38. We can infer from Paragraph 3 that Jackie Coogan ________.
A. always visited the theatre alone
B. was possibly talented in acting
C. knew much about Chaplin before
D. played every role in Chaplin’s films
39. Which of the following is TRUE about Chaplin
A. He had a poor childhood experience.
B. He was brought up by his father.
C. He looked after his mother very well
D. He produced films with his brother.
40. What’s the best title of the passage
A. A film about a dancer B. A family in London
C. A place or film-making D. A life on film
第二节 阅读填空（共 5小题；每小题 1分，满分 5分）
阅读短文及文后 A~E选项，选出可以填入 41~45各题空白处的最佳选项。
Many of us like to read books. We read everything from fiction to nonfiction (非
小说文学). In the past, we could only read traditional paper books. 41 Now,
6
we can read e-books most of the time. They still have covers and pages, but they’re
not made of paper. Instead, they’re pictures on a screen.
Some people really love e-books. 42 They can read them on their cell
phones and computers. However, in another way, they’re not so great because they
have changed the way people read.
43 Sometimes, we feel like we’re in the stories and forget about the real
world.
However, that’s not true with e-books. With them, we might not focus on the
books and our attention may be on other things.
When we read an e-book written in a foreign language, we can look up new
words right away. That takes us out of the stories and to an online dictionary. 44
We can chat with our friends, check our e-mails, surf the Internet, search for things to
buy, and more.
In a word, it makes a difference on our reading habits. Our eyes stop reading
everything on the page. 45 Some people don’t mind that, but for others, it
takes the fun out of reading.
A．We only look for key words to get information.
B．From there, we can easily change to something else.
C．E-books are great because people can carry a “library” of books with them all the
time.
D．They have front and back covers and many pages in between.
E．With traditional books, we mainly pay attention to the stories in front of us.
