三、阅读单选
A
You may have noticed that the world’s population is not evenly distributed（分别） around our planet. There are some countries where people seem to be living nearly on top of each other because conditions are overcrowded. Then there are others where it seems that hardly anybody lives. What influences this unequal distribution of people There are specific advantages and disadvantages of living in a certain area.
The two main factors that influence people’ choice of location are climate and resources. Climate is the usual weather conditions in a region. Areas that have bad weather are generally less ideal as places to live in. The north and south poles at the top and bottom of the world may be beautiful in their rugged, natural way, but the disadvantages of the bitterly cold and windy conditions usually keep people away. When it comes to climate, warm conditions and a normal amount of rainfall are advantages that attract people.
Natural resources are things that we get from nature that help us survive. Each region offers different resources, and therefore attracts different groups of people. People who enjoy the beach can make their living by catching and selling the ocean’s many fish and other sea creatures. Those who prefer farming can take advantage of rich soil （土壤） in valleys near rivers. Some people are willing to accept the disadvantages of the terrible conditions of deserts or mountains in order to take advantage of the resources like oil or woods.

A．people cannot survive in cold conditions
B．different resource attract different groups of people
C．People usually prefer living at the seaside to living in mountains
D．a normal amount of rainfall is necessary for people to live in the desert
B
Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unluckily, I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circles and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I always say, “Sorry, I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps, I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn’t want to keep him waiting.
When I just got to my office, the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions. Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!
25．The writer always refuses to give people directions because ________.
A．she’s a stranger to the city B．she doesn’t know the people
C．she has no time to help others D．she’s afraid of giving wrong direction
26．A man stopped the writer on the way to ________.
A．sell her something B．ask for the time
C．make friends with her D．ask for the direction
27．The Friendship Building is the place where the writer ________.
A．lives B．studies C．works D．teaches
28．The word “embarrassed” in the last paragraph means “________”.
A．尴尬 B．困惑 C．激动 D．拮据
29．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage
A．The writer is too shy to give. B．The writer has a very poor sense of direction.
C．The writer never got lost when she was young. D．The man was quite nervous.

八、讲稿
Dear classmates,
I am glad to be here and share my life during the winter holidays and my plan for the new term.
During the winter holidays, I visited a high-tech company with my friends. It was a good chance for me to go there and I learned a lot of interesting things there. Besides, I took lessons about programming online, because I was always interested in programming.
Here is my plan for the new term. First, I plan to listen to the English broadcast every day. It’s good for my English listening. Second, I think exercising is also important for our health, so I plan to keep doing exercise. At last, I make a decision to go to bed early in the new term so that I can be active in class. That’s all my plan for the new term.
Thanks for your listening!
