My family and I recently went to Australia, to see my grandparents. But before we visited them, we went sightseeing along the Great Ocean Road, on the Australian coast.
Dad had planned to drive, but even though he was used to driving miles without getting exhausted, he then read on the website that the road wouldn't be an easy drive. Anyway, we thought he deserved to enjoy the fantastic views too, which he couldn't do as our driver. So instead, we booked discount bus tickets and off we went.
Our first stop was where wild kangaroo lived—and Dad and I were taking a walk when a big one appeared! For a moment, it seemed to consider coming towards us, which made me a little nervous—but then it went off along the road and into the bushes.
That wasn't the only wildlife we saw. I thought it unlikely we'd see famous Koala bears during our short visit. In fact, at our next stop, we saw roughly six million in that area! Sadly, some gum trees they were in had very few leaves left, which people told us was because of the Koalas, although I'd read that lack of water is indeed the problem.
Dad had booked a campsite for the night, with ready-made tents—for an adventure! I wasn't sure about that, but they were really luxury tents, within walking distance of some famous rocks and other places we hoped to visit. However, Dad also said the sounds of wild creatures would help us sleep. That sounded worrying-until the "wild creatures" turned out to be frogs! So I was embarrassed by my fears-and kept awake by the frogs! But we had fun making meals together
In fact, this whole trip was fantastic!
24. How did the author’s family choose to travel at last
A.By car. B.By bike. C.By boat. D.By bus
25. How did the author feel when he saw the kangaroo at first
A. A little excited B. A little proud C. A little afraid D. A little upset
26. When the author was sleeping at night,he______.
A. heard the sound of frogs B.was a little cold
C.dreamed of some famous places D.was scared by a dangerous wild animal
27.which of the following words might the author use to describe his trip
A.Long. B.Wonderful. C.Cheap. D.Boring.
C
Dancing to loud music in open spaces has been a popular way for many middle-aged and elderly
Chinese people to relax and exercise. But public dancing has long been complained about because of the
noise it makes.
Recently, with the help of a new device, people living near Gumei Population Cultural Park in
Shanghai can now better enjoy themselves in public dancing without causing trouble for others with the
loud music. Set in a white box,the device is an amplifier that can send sound in a certain direction.
Using new technology，the device controls the sound in a fan-shaped area in front of the speaker.People outside the area can hardly hear any sound.
"The device is age-friendly and it's easy to use"， said Li Honglin from the company that made the device. The device is locked when not in use and the dancers take turns to keep the key.
Zhang Fengling,who lives in a community next to the park, said she's glad she can now open her windows
in the evening. Gu Xinzhen，92，who has been dancing in the park for over ten years said the music from the new speaker is not as loud as before,which makes dancing a little less fun，but she is glad to do something for a better living environment.
Five public dancing locations in the city have also used the device.What's more，in Suzhou，Jiangsu Province，over 1000 public dancing locations have used similar technology. "The technology will be introduced to more places，" Li said.
28.Why is the new device used in Gumei Population Cultural Park in Shanghai？ ______
A． To solve the problem caused by public dancing. B．To collect people's ideas about public dancing.
C．To record the beauty of public dancing. D．To play the most popular music for public dancing.
29.What are the advantages of the new device？ ______
①safe ②age-friendly ③easy to carry ④easy to use
A．①② B．②③ C．②④ D．③④
30.How does the author explain how people like the new device？ ______
A．By listing numbers. B．By giving examples.
C．By telling stories. D．By comparing facts.
31.What can we learn from the text？ ______
A．Good relationships don't come easy. B．Exercise improves health.
C．Noise pollution is harmful. D．Technology changes life.
D
Many cities and towns have laws that require people to recycle paper and plastics.Now some state and local governments have passed laws that require citizens to recycle their food waste as well.California and Vermont have statewide laws about recycling food waste that apply to businesses and homes. The process of recycling food waste and turning it into usable soil is called composting (堆制肥料)．
Food waste that can be composted includes fruit and vegetable peels，coffee grounds，tea bags，and eggshells.Garden waste such as stems and leaves can also be composted.Meat，fish，and dairy food waste cannot be recycled.According to environmental groups，composting reduces the amount of trash(垃圾） going into landfills (垃圾填埋地)，and composted waste holds a wide range of nutrients（养分）.When compost is added to the soil in gardens and fields，it helps crops grow.
Reducing the amount of waste that goes into landfills is one reason why cities and states are passing food-waste recycling laws.“Our landfills are far from enough for the creation of new ones is shrinking.” Renee Crowley，a project manager at the Lower East Side Ecology Center in New York City，told TFK.
Officials in Seattle，Washington，say that food waste makes up 30% of the trash going into landfills，and they are looking to reduce that percentage.That city has a law requiring people to recycle food waste.It is banned (禁止) from all garbage.There is a fine（罚款） for people who put it into regular garbage.Crowley points out that even in cities where food recycling is not a law，there are often places where citizens can drop off their food waste for composting.Many schools and colleges have also started composting programs.
Those who are against food-recycling laws say that the composting process is costly.In addition，it can be difficult for people who live in apartments to store（保存） their waste because they don't have access to outside storage bins（垃圾箱）. Patti Ferguson from Orange County，California，told her local newspaper that she thought an indoor container containing food waste would get smelly.
32.What do we know about composting from the text
A．Not all food waste can be reused. B．It is cheap to compost food waste.
C．Not all soil can be composted. D．It is usually processed in empty landfills.
33.What is the third paragraph mainly about
A．Ways of keeping nutrients in the soil. B．Ways of reducing the amount of trash.
C．Examples of different useful nutrients. D．Benefits of recycling food waste.
34.In Seattle，throwing food waste into garbage is .
A．acceptable B. shameful C．required D．illegal
35.Patti Ferguson's attitude towards food-recycling laws is probably ．
A．thankful　　　B．Negative C．uncaring D．supportive

阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
My Best Teaching Experience
Tyler was only in my senior class for a semester. He had been suspended (使停学) many times in previous years because of his anger issues. When he entered my class, I thought the worst.
Tyler sat in the back row. Every time I talked to the class, I would ask students questions, calling them by name. Unfortunately, every time I called on Tyler, he would respond with a joke. If he got an answer wrong, he would become angry.
About a month into the year, I was still trying to connect with Tyler. I can usually get students
involved in class discussions or at least have them sit quietly and attentively (专心地). By contrast,
Tyler was often loud and sometimes rude.
He had been in so much trouble over the years. He expected his teachers to know about his past:
about how many times he had been sent to the office or suspended from school. 1 had found that these sorts of referrals (移交) were not very effective and that students would return from the office behaving worse than before.
One day, Tyler was talking over me while I was teaching. I stopped my lesson and said,“Tyler, why don't you join in our discussion instead of having one of your own " With that, he got up from his chair, pushed it over and yelled something. I can't remember what he said other than that he included some impolite words. I sent Tyler straight to the office, and he received a week’s suspension.
To this point, this was one of my worst teaching experiences. Tyler's anger was almost too much
for me. The week Tyler was suspended from school was a wonderful time, and we got a lot accomplished as a class. However, the suspension week would soon come to an end, and I was fearful of his return.
注意：
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右；
2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好，不计入总词数。
Paragraph 1:
On the day of Tyler 's return, I stood at the door awaiting him.
Paragraph 2:
A spark of surprise flashed across his face.
