Even though I just had lunch not long ago, I was feeling hungry again. I went to the kitchen to look for something to eat. That was when I discovered the pudding in the fridge. It was made from milk, sugar,eggs and fruits,and it looked so yummy. I noticed that there was only one left.
I was putting the pudding on a plate when my brother came into the kitchen. He found the pudding and asked for it. “It’s mine! I was the only one who found it!”I shouted.“You are my elder brother. You should give it to me!”said he. Then he started pulling the plate towards himself and I did the same.
Suddenly, the plate moved to one side and the pudding slipped(滑动)out of the plate. It landed on the floor and turned into a yellow mess. My brother and I both looked at each other, feeling amazed and disappointed at the same time. It was such a waste!
To my surprise, Ollie, our pet dog,walked over to the mess on the floor. It began to lap up the pudding happily. Within minutes, the mess on the floor was gone. Ollie licked(舔)its lips when it was done.
After watching Ollie finishing the whole pudding by itself, we realized　　　. If both of us had shared the pudding, we would both have got to eat half of it. It was because of our greed(贪婪)that we ended up with nothing. That day, my brother and I learnt a good lesson.

Internet Boom
Today the Internet is widely used in homes, schools, and businesses around the world. However, that hasn’t always been the case. The Internet was first developed in the 1960s and 1970s by the U.S. government scientists as a way of sharing information. The earliest Internet was called ARPAnet. In 1969, only four computers were connected to the ARPAnet. Just 20 years later, though, as computers became more commonly developed, over 80,000 computers were connected.
The use of the Internet has continued to grow rapidly. Experts think that about 1% of the world’s population used the Internet in 1996. By 2008, that percentage grew to nearly 24%.
How do scientists count more than 1 billion users The programs called Web Crawlers look through the Internet to see how many people are using the Internet and which pages they are visiting. They also make copies of webpages, which are stored by search engines. Web Crawlers work and collect information once they are started. These programs are sometimes called “spiders”because they“crawl”around the Web.
These programs collect and send information 24 hours a day. So if everyone stops using the Internet for one day, the Internet will still be a pretty busy place. Even when people are not online, these programs travel the Internet.
1.The information in the first paragraph shows the idea that the Internet 　　　.
A.is available mainly in the United States
B.has a wider use today than it did in the past
C.is seldom used by people in other countries
D.is used mainly by government scientists today
2.From the third paragraph, we can know that scientists use Web Crawlers to 　　　.
A.clean the web B.catch the spiders
C.find the Internet D.count the users
3.According to the chart, which one of the statements is TRUE
A.There were much fewer people who used the Internet in 2000.
B.There were more than 500 million Internet users in 2000.
C.The number of Internet users became less from 2000 to 2008.
D.The use of the Internet grows slowly between 2000 and 2005.
4.The underlined word “Boom” in the title means 　　　.
A.a loud noise B.a government job
C.a rapid increase D.a computer program
1.【答案】B　
【解析】细节理解题。由第一段可知:互联网诞生之初,用户很少,现在广泛地应用。
2.【答案】D　
【解析】细节理解题。由第三段的第一句和第二句可知。
3.【答案】A　
【解析】细节理解题。由图表可知,2000年使用网络的人数是2000~2008年之间最少的。
4.【答案】C　
【解析】词义猜测题。通过全文来看,互联网在20世纪末,21世纪初迅速发展,因此boom的含义是快速发展。
C
This painting is called The Fighting Temeraire. Temeraire is the name of the big, old sailing ship that you can see on the left of the picture. People chose this picture to be the greatest painting in Britain.
J. M. W. Turner painted it in 1839. It shows the old sailing ship, the Temeraire, on the River Thames near London. There’s a small tugboat pulling the old ship. It’s in fact taking the Temeraire on its last journey. The old ship is going to the breaker’s yard. In the background we can see the sun setting.
The picture, however, is more than just a painting of two boats in the evening. The artist wanted to show the end of an era(时代). The time of the beautiful, old sailing ships is coming to an end. That’s why we see this happening at sunset. In the little, brown tugboat we can see the new industrial era starting. The tugboat is small and dark and it’s making a lot of smoke, but it’s very strong, because it’s pulling the much bigger ship.
The painting shows a real event. Turner watched the Temeraire taking its last journey up the Thames, but he changed some of the details. He painted the old ship white and gold so that it looks like a ghost. In fact, the real ship was black and yellow. We also see the sun setting behind the ship, but in fact, the ship travelled towards the sunset. However, Turner wanted to show the sun setting on the time of the beautiful old sailing ships.
Turner painted The Fighting Temeraire when he was quite old, so perhaps he wanted to show the sun setting on his own life, too. He loved the painting and he never sold it. You can see it today in the National Gallery in London.
1.The Fighting Temeraire 　　　.
A.is the name of a big sailing ship
B.was thought the best painting in Britain
C.shows two nice new ships
D.was painted by a famous young artist
2.The old ship was pulled to the yard 　　　.
A.to be painted new B.to be repaired
C.to be broken up D.to be sold
3.What does the tugboat stand for according to the passage
A.The new industrial era. B.The beautiful old era.
C.The painter’s own life. D.The white and gold ghost.
4.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs
A.The color of the real sailing ship was white and gold.
B.In the painting the sailing ship was going towards the sunset.
C.Finally Turner sold this painting because he didn’t like it.
D.Today the painting is kept in the National Gallery in London.
1.【答案】B　
【解析】细节理解题。由第一段第一句话This painting is called The Fighting Temeraire.和最后一句话People chose this picture to be the greatest painting in Britain.可知答案选择B项。
2.【答案】C　
【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段倒数第二句话The old ship is going to the breaker’s yard.可知,这艘船将要去破拆场,故推测答案选择C项。
3.【答案】A　
【解析】细节理解题。根据文章第三段倒数第二句In the little, brown tugboat we can see the new industrial era starting.可知答案选择A项。
4.【答案】D　
【解析】细节理解题。根据文章最后一句话You can see it today in the National Gallery in London.可知这幅画现存于伦敦国家美术馆。
D
I live in Mentone, a quiet, simple, restful place, where the rich never come. I met Theophile Magnan, a retired, rich, old man from Lyons yesterday, in the Hotel des Anglais. Theophile looked sad and dreamy, and didn’t talk with anybody else, which brought me back to the past.
A long time ago, Francois Millet, Claude, Carl and I were young artists—very young artists—in fact.
Yes, Francois Millet, the great French artist, was my friend.
Millet wasn’t any greater than we were at that time. He didn’t have any fame, even in his own village. We were all poor though we had stacks and stacks of as good pictures as anybody in Europe painted. Once a person ever offered four francs* for Millet’s “Angelus”, which he intended to sell for eight.
It was a fact in human history that a great artist would never be acknowledged* until after he was starved and dead. His pictures climbed to high prices after his death.
Then we made a decision that one of us must die, to save the others and himself.
Millet was elected*—elected to die.
During the next three months, Millet painted with all his might, enlarged his stock all he could, not pictures, no! sketches, studies, parts of studies, fragments of studies, of course, with his cipher* on them. They were the things to be sold.
Carl went to Paris to start the work of building up Millet’s name. Claude and I went to sell Millet’s small pictures and to build up his name as well.
We made Millet a master. I always said to my customer, “I am a fool to sell a picture of Francois Millet’s at all, for he is not going to live three months, and when he dies his pictures can’t be had for love or money.” Claude and I took care to spread that little fact as far as we could.
Carl made friends with the correspondents, and got Millet’s condition reported to England and all over the continent, and America, and everywhere.
The sad end came at last, Millet died, not really. He became Theophile Magnan.
The pictures went up. There’s a man in Paris today who owns seventy Millet pictures. He paid us two million francs for them. Do you still remember the “Angelus” Carl sold it for twenty-two hundred francs. And as for the bushels of sketches and studies which Millet produced in the last six weeks, well, it would astonish you to know the figure we sell them at nowadays.
We are no longer artists and Millet dead.
1.Why did the four friends decide to elect one of them to die
A.They wanted to be rich.
B.They wanted to be famous.
C.They wanted to save money.
D.They wanted to be respected.
2.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the passage
A.The writer lives a busy life in Mentone.
B.Millet was finally made a famous artist.
C.Millet painted best among the four friends.
D.The story was written in memory of Millet.
3.What made the four friends’ plan succeed
A.That they didn’t want to be artists any longer.
B.That Millet’s pictures were sold at very high prices.
C.People’s attitude towards the artists who were starving.
D.People’s desire to own precious art works at low prices.
4.Is Millet living or dead Why (请用约40词回答)
【答案】A　
【解析】细节理解题。由第四至第六段可知四人非常贫困。只有艺术家饿死后,才华才能被承认,作品的价格才会攀升,因此他们决定一个人必须“死亡”,来拯救自己和其他人,因此可知选出一人去“死”的原因就是想致富。由此可知本题选择A。
【答案】B　
【解析】细节理解题。A项的busy与原文第一句中的restful不符;B项符合原文;由第四段第一句可知C项错误;D项表示“故事是为纪念Millet而写”,事实上,Millet并没有死去。由此可知本题选择B。
【答案】D　
【解析】推理判断题。A项“他们不想再当艺术家了”文中没有提及;B项表示“Millet的画作以极高价出售”,原文中Millet在“未死”之前,画作不值钱,曾有人花4法郎买画,因此B项与原文不符;C项“人们对即将饿死的艺术家的态度”文中没有提及;D项“人们对以低价获得珍贵的艺术品的欲望”符合原文的表述。
4.【答案】①Millet is alive. In order to sell his pictures at high prices, he pretended to be dead. He continues to live in the world with a new name Theophile Magnan.(30词)
②Millet is dead. There is no famous artist called Millet living in the world any longer. He only lives in people s memory. Everything related to the artist Millet has become history.(31词)
③Millet is alive. He just pretended to be dead and took a new name Theophile Magnan. To some extent, he is dead. There is no famous artist called Millet living in the world any longer. Everything related to the artist Millet has become history.(45词)
【解析】文中作为画家的Millet在公众眼中已经死去。他隐姓埋名,以Theophile Magnan的名字,苟活于世间;他既不敢让公众知道他的过去,也不敢做他喜欢的事情;他虽富有,却不快乐。他神情忧伤、恍惚。他活着,他也死了。

A Trip to Xisai Mountain
I had a wonderful visit last Sunday.Our class took a special trip to Xisai Mountain.On the morning of Sunday,we took the bus to Xisai Mountain.We got to the foot of the mountain at 8:30 a.m.We began climbing the mountain soon.On our way up the mountain,the air was very fresh and the scenery was very beautiful,everybody was talking and laughing.
After two hours,we reached the top.The Yangtze River appeared in the north.And over the river there was a great bridge.Then we played and had a rest there.We felt very relaxed.Seeing some birds flying in the sky,I suddenly remembered a popular poem of the Tang Dynasty,“Birds are flying in front of Xisai Mountain...”.Finally,we went home with happiness.
I hope I will visit the beautiful place again.
