My school appeared on the news last week because we had made an important change in our local area. Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work, but it was all worth it. I got blisters from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.
I learned a lot about gardening and cooperation, and then I learned about the media. Our teachers telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them.
The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie(大草原), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it. We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth-grade students.
As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school. He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project.
That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.
1.What seemed to be the TV directors' initial reaction to the garden
A.They were excited. B.They were surprised.
C.They were worried. D.They were uninterested.
2.What is special about the garden
A.Weeds were allowed to spread naturally.
B.The grass grew faster than common grass.
C.The seeds came from the plants of a prairie.
D.Underground water was used for the plants.
3.What does the underlined word "that" refer to in the last paragraph
A.We got blisters on our hands. B.Our hard work was worthwhile.
C.The garden would be famous. D.The project would be finished.

Having attended a first-aid-at-work course, Brian Cracknell soon found himself responding to two emergencies in a week.
Brian was at work in his bus company office in Weston-super-Mare on May 18 when a colleague called to say there had been an accident at a bus stop nearby. He ran to the scene with his first-aid kit and found an old lady sitting at the bus stop. When boarding (上车) the bus, the old lady painfully hurt her left leg, which was bleeding.
He introduced himself, and asked some basic first-aid questions to get a general picture of her health. Then he put his jacket on the floor, using the lady's coat as a pillow, and gently laid her down so he could raise her legs and apply some bandages. Brian said, "At first I was a bit worried about remembering to do all the right things. I made sure she was as comfortable as possible." When he had nearly finished, he told the lady that she was his first one. The lady said he was doing a great job.
Just a week later, Brian got a second call-out to help another lady at a bus stop.
Having used his new skills twice within a short time, Brian has decided to sign up as a Red Cross first-aid volunteer.

A ten-year-old boy from Howell, Michigan is being praised as a hero thanks to his persistence(坚持) that led to saving the life of an elderly neighbor. The event happened late in an evening when Danny DiPietro was being driven home from hockey practice by his mom.
That's when the young boy noticed an open garage(车库) and a figure that he believed was a dog outside an apartment building near his house. Given the freezing weather, the young boy got a feeling that something was not right. But instead of dismissing it like most kids at his age, he insisted that his mother, Dawn, find out what was going on. Dawn tried to make Danny believe that no one would leave a dog out in such cold weather, but he refused to take no for an answer.
Dawn finally gave in and decided to drive to the area with the family dog and see if there was any truth in Danny's hunch(直觉). Sure enough, as she got closer to the apartment building she noticed a garage that was wide open and someone waving madly for help. Upon getting there, she realized that it was not a dog the young boy had seen, but Kathleen St. Onge. The 80-year-old woman had fallen down on some ice in front of her garage and had been lying there for two hours, unable to get up.
Dawn called 911 at once. The two then returned with some blankets to cover Ms. St. Onge, while they were waiting for the ambulance to arrive. Though still in hospital, the elderly woman is recovering well and forever grateful to Danny for following his hunch!

Heads up! Across the country, sports injuries are a safety concern for young athletes. Now, the American Medical Association (AMA) has a new set of guidelines aimed at protecting players from the danger of concussions—serious injuries caused by a blow to the head.
"By raising awareness of the serious risks associated with concussions and ensuring that the appropriate guidelines are in place, we can reduce the number of young athletes who may return to the game too soon, which can put their health at further risk, said AMA Board Member Jack Resneck Jr, M.D., in a statement.
The policy recommends that young athletes who may have a concussion be taken off the field as soon as possible. Then, they are only to return to their sport with a doctor's written approval. The policy also sets age-specific rules for health care professionals and athletic organizations in evaluating and caring for concussions.
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a concussion is a type of traumatic (创伤) brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This type of movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist inside the skull (颅骨). It can damage brain cells and create chemical changes in the brain.
The CDC says that between 1.6 million and 3.8 million traumatic brain injuries caused by sports and recreation-related activities occur in the U.S. every year. A study from the Center for Injury Research and Policy showed that as many as 40% of high school athletes return to playing before they should. The AMA's new guidelines should help to bring those numbers down.
1.Why does the AMA set the new guidelines
A.To raise safety standards of sports. B.To protect athletes from concussions.
C.To set rules for health care evaluation. D.To help players return to the game quickly.
2.What should young athletes who may have a concussion do
A.Avoid using the head. B. Leave the field forever.
C. Get treatment in time. D. Switch to another sport.
3.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about
A.What a concussion is. B.What causes damage to brain cells.
C.How the CDC works. D.How a concussion can be prevented.
4.Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Rules for Safer Play B. Sports Injuries in the U.S.
C. Advice to Athletes D. New Policies for Doctors

I had run out of printer ink, so I drove to the only store to buy some. It was the worst possible 1 to shop. The store was 2 with people and the wait at the checkout counter was long. I could see the 3 and frustration on the faces of the people around me. It was no 4 in the parking lot and I found myself in the middle of a long line of cars 5 to pull out.
As my car was inching forward I saw a young, thin woman in a 6 coat, holding up a cardboard sign that 7 : "Homeless. Please Help!" I watched as car after car drove past her, the drivers ing closer I grabbed my wallet and pulled out the little cash I had left. I stopped next to her, 9 down my window, and put it in her dirty hand, half covered with her ragged sleeve. She looked at me with a small 10 and whispered "Thank you" before the honking (鸣笛) car behind me forced me to 11 on.
I drove away hoping that I had helped her even little. Did my small act of kindness make a 12 to her I don't know. Did it change the 13 of the driver behind me Probably not. In life we all want to make great changes and do great things, 14 sometimes a small kindness is enough.

第二节 (满分25分)
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。续写的词数应为150左右。
Fifteen years ago, I was born in a big family. I had been taught that money couldn't buy everything ever since I was a little kid. My parents are the most hard-working people I have ever seen. As much as my parents tried to teach me these values, some could only be learned through personal experiences.
As a child, I would sit in the church trying to concentrate on the words of the priest (牧师), but my attention was soon attracted by the shining gold and the diamonds worn by the Saturday churchgoers. As my eyes began to wander, I noticed men dressed in their tailored suits and shirts accompanied by women in their designer dresses with matching handbags and shoes.
My family, on the other hand, was the opposite of rich. Our hand-me-down clothes had been washed so many times that the colors had become dull and lifeless. Although this revealed the money struggles of our large family, our faces were always washed and hair neatly combed. When sitting on the big old red and white truck after the service, I pictured the lives led by those driving their brand-new cars, wishing I would be one of them.
I never stopped those fantasies, even when I was in middle school. Since it was a private school, most of the children came from wealthy families. As a result, I constantly felt ashamed. Although I could hide my lack of wealth at school by wearing our school uniforms, my poverty was embarrassingly apparent on weekends with my classmates wearing designer jeans and I had no choice but to wear my sister's old jeans. I never fitted in with my classmates. To my relief, there was only one girl named Julie who opened her heart to me. I was attached to her like a shadow. Soon, her birthday was approaching. Julie invited me to attend her birthday party.
However, I grew upset as I couldn't afford a gift. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When she opened the gift box, my heart missed a beat.

答案:
Dear Tom,
My name is Li Hua, who was assisted by you last Sunday. I am writing to thank you for helping me out in the sports meeting.
Last Sunday, unfortunately, my left foot got injured in the competition. Luckily, you just learned first aid. First, you dialed 120 immediately and performed first aid before the doctor came. Besides, you put my foot in a comfortable position. Then you rushed to a shop nearby and fetched bags of ice, and carefully applied the ice to the injury. Lastly, you covered the injury with a clean and dry bandage. Ten minutes later an ambulance arrived, and you accompanied me to the hospital.
Now I have got well again. Thanks again for your help.
Best wishes to you.
Yours,
Li Hua
答案:
Paragraph 1:
However, I grew upset as I couldn't afford a gift. It would be such an embarrassing scene to be present without a gift. I even thought about quitting, but I was not able to bring it forth. I struggled for days but couldn't figure out any solution. One day, while helping with my hardworking parents with the housework, it suddenly occurred to me that maybe I could make a gift by myself. I immediately started my DIY project, which ended up with a toy doll. The big day finally came. I arrived at her house and handed her the box.
Paragraph 2:
When she opened the gift box, my heart was too nervous to beat. I looked closely at her face, wondering if she would just laugh at me. What happened next was totally beyond my imagination. Upon seeing the doll, Julie let out a cry of excitement and she held it close to her face, saying repeatedly that it was the sweetest gift she had ever received. Her words freed me. I couldn't help smiling together with her. At that precious moment, I realized money couldn’t buy everything. It was our friendship that really mattered.
