At noon the rush hour passed. In the small restaurant, all the customers left. When the boss was about to take a break to read a newspaper, an old man and a little boy came in.
“How much is a bowl of beef soup ” the grandpa sat down, took out his wallet, counted the money and asked a bowl of beef soup. The grandpa pushed the bowl towards the little boy, and the boy really wanted to eat. He asked his grandpa, “Grandpa, did you really have lunch ”
“Of course,” his grandpa just ate a piece of pickled radish (腌萝卜) slowly. The little boy ate up the meal in a few minutes.

At the moment, it may be difficult to imagine, but many people believe that, by the year 2100, we’ll live on the planet—Mars. Our own planet, the earth, is becoming more and more crowded and polluted. Luckily, we can start again and build a better world on Mars. Here is what life could be like.
First of all, transport should be much better. At present, our spaceships are too slow to carry large numbers of people to Mars—it takes months. However, by 2100, the spaceship can travel at half the speed of light. It might take us two or three days to get to Mars!
Secondly, humans need food, water and air. Scientists should be able to develop plants that can be grown on Mars. These plants will produce the food and air that we need. However, can these plants produce water for us There is no answer now.
There is a problem for us to live on Mars. The gravity on Mars is much less than the gravity on earth. This will be dangerous because we could easily jump too high and fly slowly away into space. To prevent this, humans on Mars have to wear special shoes to make themselves heavier.
Life on Mars will be better than that on the earth in many ways. People will have more space. Living in a large building with 10 bedrooms is highly possible. Many people believe that robots will do most of our work, so we have more time for our hobbies.
There will probably be no school on Mars. Every student will have a computer at home which is connected to the Internet. They can study, do their homework and take exams in online schools. Each student will also have his or her own online teacher called “e-teacher”. However, in some ways, life on Mars may not be better than that on the earth today. Food will not be the same—meals will probably be in the form of pills and will not be as delicious as they are today. Also, space travel will make many people feel ill. The spaceship will travel fast but the journey to Mars will probably be very uncomfortable.
44.According to the passage, by the year 2100, some of us will possibly live ________.
A.on Mars B.on the moon C.under the sea D.on the sun
45.So far, how long will it take us from the earth to Mars by spaceship
A.Two or three days. B.A few months.
C.A few days. D.A few years.
46.In the future, the students on Mars ________.
A.will study mainly on the Internet
B.will study mainly in the classroom
C.will meet each other face to face
D.needn’t study at all
47.Life on Mars will be better than life on the earth because ________.
A.only a few people will live there
B.there will be more space and less work to do
C.there will be much delicious food
D.all students don’t need to do any homework
48.Which of the following about Mars is NOT true
A.Transport will be much better and faster.
B.We need to develop a special plant which can produce food and air.
C.On Mars, we can jump higher than on the earth.
D.Food will be much tastier.
In most languages, people often start small talk after a greeting. Small talk means the little things we talk about at the start of a conversation. In English-speaking countries people often make small talk about the weather: “Nice day, isn’t it ” “Terrible weather, isn’t it ” But there is something special about small talk. It must be about something that both people have the same opinion about. The purpose (目的) of small talk is to let both people agree on something. This makes meeting people easier and more comfortable. People usually agree about the weather, so it is a safe topic for small talk. But people often disagree about religion (宗教) or politics (政治), so these are not suitable topics for small talk. The topics for small talk also depend on where the conversation is taking place. At football matches, people make small talk about the game they are watching: “Great game, isn’t it ” At bus stops, people may comment about the transport system: “The bus service is terrible, isn’t it ”
Small talk is an important part of conversation in any language. People in different countries start small talk in different ways. This shows that when we learn a language, we should learn the vocabulary and the grammar as well as the social behavior of the people who speak it.
49.Small talk ________.
A.is a kind of conversation with short words B.is a greeting when people meet each other
C.is to let people disagree about something D.is a polite friendly conversation on unimportant topics
50.The favorite topic of small talk is about ________.
A.the weather B.politics C.games D.languages
51.The passage suggests that when we learn a language, ________.
A.we should learn about the transport system of the country
B.we should only learn the grammar and the vocabulary
C.we should know the culture about the country
D.we should know the importance of the language
52.What we learn from the passage is that ________.
A.different languages have different grammars
B.small talk is an important part in a language
C.small talk depends on the purpose of the conversation
D.we can talk about religion and politics in small talk
How to talk to someone you don’t know It depends on the situation (情况).
If one of your friends introduces you to a new friend, it would be OK to start talking about the person who introduces you. You may ask him/her how they knew each other. Show you’re interested in it even if you aren’t. Nod (点头) after he / she talks. This will give you more time to listen to what he/she says, and you think about next question from his/her talking.
Now if you go to a class on the first day where you do not know anyone, the first thing you should remember is not to be shy when talking to other people. You may remember when you were in the first or second grade, someone would just walk up to you and talk to you. Be open, but think before you talk.
When it comes to meeting people face to face for the first time, find a situation which both of you are in. Maybe you are sitting next to each other. Maybe the other person says something you don’t understand. Find a situation that seems proper (恰当的). Start by a simple conversation. It may seem strange at first. But the more you talk and take action with them, the more they will like you.
53.What does the underlined part “the person” refer to
A.The weather. B.One of your friends. C.Yourself. D.A new friend.

Venice is a very beautiful city. It is quite different from other cities in the world. There aren’t any roads and streets in the city, so there aren’t any cars and buses.

Let’s suppose it is a common day of 2060. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.
Trips to the moon are being made every day. Taking a holiday on the moon today is as easy as taking a holiday in Europe in the 2010s. At a number of scenic spots (风景胜地) on the moon, many hotels have been built. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon, every room has at least one picture window. Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment of the young and old.
What are people eating now People are still eating food. But a lot of food now comes in pill (药片) form, and the food that goes into the pill comes mainly from green plants.
Because people in the world today are much more than those about fifty years ago, most of the earth's surface has to be filled. The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer eaten by pests (害虫). The harvest is always good. Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farms. It is possible to run the farms by just using a few computers.
People are row largely vegetarians, and they eat only bread, vegetables, fruit and so on and they don’t eat meat or fish. You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animals decreases.

Do you like the idea of space travel It is becoming more and more real.
In July, Richard Branson, the founder of Virgin Galactic, and Jeff Bezos, the founder of space company Blue Origin, flew into space aboard spacecraft (航天器) developed by their companies.
When explaining the importance of space travel, Branson told Daily Mail that many people are not “fully educated as to what space does for Earth”. He said, “we need more rocket ships going into space because they can help us to watch things like climate change.” But some people have different opinions.
They think it is part of the so-called “billionaire space race”, which offers what’s seen by some as “joyrides (兜风)” for the super-rich. According to Forbes, one open seat on the Blue Origin rocket sold for $28 million (181 million yuan) at an auction (拍卖会).
So, with the sky-high prices, should common people give up their dream of space travel Maybe not. US flight engineer Bobak Ferdowsi said that we are at the point at which space tourism is only for the super-rich, but that doesn’t mean it will be like that forever. He thinks that the price will come down. Maybe in 10 to 15 years, it’s a decision between do I buy a new car, or do I go to space We should invest (投资) in a future that allows us to live somewhere else.

Dear future Linda (or rather myself),
I hope when you read this letter, you don’t find my writing too messy! At the moment, I’m 15 years old and living at home with my family. I love school and have lots of good friends. We have a lot of fun together. My biggest worry is not doing well in my school exams, but I’m working really hard so hopefully I have nothing to worry about.
There’s so much I (you!) want to do. I hope you’ve travelled all over the world and seen lots of things and met lots of people. I hope you’ve visited the Great Wall in China and the pyramids in Egypt, shopped in New York City and in Paris, seen the Great Barrier Reef in Australia. I’ve just remembered that you always wanted to see elephants in India—I hope you’ve managed to do that, too.
I promise myself I’ll always try my best and have no regrets. I never want to forget where every step of my life has taken me. Already it seems as if so much has happened. I’ve moved from primary to junior high (about to graduate), been taught to swim and dance, learned to speak Chinese and French, and raised money for those in need by selling old toys and books.
I really hope you’re happy. I hope you have an interesting job that you enjoy doing and look forward to each morning when you wake up. I hope you get on well with good friends and family and maybe also have a family of your own. More than anything else, I hope you’ve enjoyed every single moment so far!
Love,
Linda

Mike Moore has visited China more than 20 times since his first visit in 1984. In his eyes, the change of ways of transportation in Chinese cities could show the great changes that have taken place in the past years.
“My first impression (印象) of China was: thousands of people in blue or green uniforms on bikes in the cities. About 15 years later, you saw many people on motors. Another five years later, you see more private (私人的) cars, in different colours,” he said.
“Now you can see all kinds of cars in Chinese cities, no difference with other big cities in the world,” he added.
“So first bikes, then motors, and now all kinds of cars, you can feel the great changes that have happened in China in the past few years,” said the former WTO chief.
Moore described himself as a “China fan”. He said that Chinese people now became more confident (自信的), happier and healthier than before and the environment quality in big cities has been improved.
He believed that China will be stronger in the world in the future.

If you travel in some areas in India, you will be lucky enough to be waited by special guide-monkeys. Dressed in waistcoat(马甲), these monkeys are always ready to be of service(服务)to you. Hungry, you only have to point to your own stomach and they will lead you to the restaurant. Tired, you put both your hands behind your head and monkeys will take you to the hotel. If you want to drink, monkeys will send you to a bar. But do not feel puzzled when they put out their hairy hands after the service is done. They are just asking for a little money as a tip. After that, they wave their hands as if(好像)they were saying good-bye to you.
Believe it or not, the monkeys are from the school for monkeys in India, where they were trained for one year to get their diplomas(毕业证). They’re not the only monkey students in the world. Some are now being trained as nurses in an American medical college. These monkeys are about to look after patients and help them with housework after graduation.
A three-year-old monkey named Helen has learned to turn on and off the light, use a recorder and open doors and windows when she is told to. In the tropical(热带的)Malaysia where coconut trees reach high up to the sky, monkeys would jump to the top and pick off the coconuts for people. Once the job is done, they would rush to their master, hoping to get some wild fruits as rewards(奖赏).

Do you have any close friends I’m sure you do. Everyone has a good friend or two. I learnt an interesting lesson about the power of friendship (友谊的力量) a few days ago.
It was a story about two friends—a Canadian girl named Jessica Stuart and a Japanese girl named Fukue. Stuart’s parents moved to Japan to work when she was a child. After Stuart met Fukue at school, they became good friends. Stuart often protected Fukue from bullies (欺凌).
After one year, Stuart’s family moved back home. Stuart and Fukue stayed in touch by writing letters to each other. But after two years, Fukue’s letters stopped coming.
Stuart didn’t know what happened. Why did the letters stop She began a long journey (旅程) to find her old friend. Many years later, she found Fukue. Both girls were adults (成年人) by then. It turned out that Fukue dropped out of school (辍学) because she was bullied again after Stuart left. Luckily, they were able to find each other again, even after many years.
Not every friendship can last forever. People come and go. But true friends can find a way to stay together forever—even if they’ve been far apart for a long time.

Have you watched the TV show Home with Kids (《家有儿女》) You might hear the laughter (笑声) when something funny happens. But every time, the laughter sounds the same.
This is called canned (预先录制的) laughter. The US sound engineer (工程师) Charley Douglass made it in the 1950s. He recorded (记录) different kinds of laughter. When editors (剪辑员) needed laughter in their shows, he just pressed the play button (按钮).
Canned laughter was popular during that time. When the audience (观众) heard it, they laughed along with the actors.
But about 10 years later, people started to think that canned laughter sounded silly. They wanted real laughter because it is more vivid. Some famous sitcoms (情景喜剧), such as Friends (《老友记》) and The Big Bang Theory (《生活大爆炸》), use this kind of laughter.
The Big Bang Theory has live audiences. They can attend the show when it is being recorded. All the laughter you hear is from real audiences!
