A
South America has a long and interesting coastline. When it comes to beaches, there are some excellent options to be found across the continent.
Sancho Beach
This beach is an amazing stretch of sand with peaceful waters. The clear waters are perfect for swimming but it is difficult to access(进入). It can only be reached by boat or by climbing down the rocky hillsides on each end, so it isn't particularly good for younger children or people who are physically challenged.
Vichayito Beach
Just a short distance from the waterfront town of Mancora, this lovely beach is often quiet and peaceful, offering some nice shallow water to swim in for little ones. A little further out, the waves pick up, making for fine surfing and windsurfing surroundings, while the charming village offers nice accommodation(住宿).
Copacabana Beach
The cold water here means it isn't an ideal swimming location, but there are good spots for surfing and windsurfing. Various water activities make it a great beach. Visit early, especially in the busy tourist seasons, not only to avoid crowds, but also to gain admission —— visitors will be turned away once the park reaches peak capacity(峰值容量).
Jericoacoara Beach
Located near the city center, this beach is very popular among surfers thanks to its great waves. It isn't too rough to swim for experienced swimmers, although a slightly rocky seafloor means you should be careful. With large crowds of people, the best time to visit is sunset —— arrive early to get a good viewing spot.
21. What may make Sancho Beach difficult to reach
A. Its unique location. B. Lack of boat services.
C. The great waves. D. Large crowds of tourists.
22. Which beach is the most ideal place for young children to swim
A. Sancho Beach. B. Copacabana Beach. C. Vichayito Beach. D. Jericoacoara Beach.
23. What do Copacabana Beach and Jericoacoara Beach have in common
A. They provide perfect swimming options for professionals.
B. Tourists may be refused due to their limited capacity.
C. Tourists should arrive early to get a good viewing spot.
D. They both attract those loving water sports.
B
Danielle Steel, America’ s sweetheart, is one of the hardest working women in the book business. Unlike other productive(多产的) authors who write one book at a time, she can work on up to five. Her research time before writing takes at least three years. Once she has fully studied her subjects, ready to dive into a book, she can spend twenty hours nonstop at her desk.
Danielle Steel comes from New York and was sent to France for her education. After graduation, she worked in the public relations and advertising industries. Later she started a job as a writer which she was best fit for. Her achievements are unbelievable: 390 million copies of books in print, nearly fifty New York Times best-selling novels, and a series of“Max and Martha” picture books for children to help them deal with the real-life problems of death, new babies and new schools. Her 1998 book about the death of her son shot to the top of the New York Times best-selling list as soon as it came out. Twenty-eight of her books have been made into films. She is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for one of her books being the Times best-seller for 381 weeks straight.
Not content with a big house, a loving family, and a view of the Golden Gate Bridge, Danielle Steel considers her readers to be the most important resource(资源) and has kept in touch with them by e-mail. While she is often compared to the heroines(女主人公) of her own invention, her life is undoubtedly much quieter. But, if she does have anything in common with them, it is her strength of will and her inimitable (独特的) style. There is only one Danielle Steel.
24. Danielle Steel is different from other writers in that ________.
A. she can write several books at the same time
B. she often does some research before writing a book
C. she is one of the most popular American women writers
D. she can keep writing for quite a long time without a break
25. Children who have read“Max and Martha” picture books may know ________
A. how to deal with affairs at school
B. what to do when new babies are born into their families
C. what to do if Max and Martha die
D. how to solve the difficult problems in their writing classes
26. One of Danielle Steel's achievements is that ________.
A. she wrote the Guinness Book of World Records
B. her picture books attracted a lot of young men
C. some TV plays were based on her books
D. one of her books became a best-seller in 1998
27. According to the passage, which sentence is right
A. Danielle Steel writes about quiet women.
B. Danielle Steel lives an exciting life.
C. Both Danielle Steel and her heroines are unique.
D. Danielle Steel is pleased with her achievements.
C
When it comes to friends, I desire those who will share my happiness, who possess(拥有) wings of their own and who will fly with me. I seek friends whose qualities illuminate(照亮) me and train me up for love. It is for these people that I reserve the glowing hours, too good not to share.
When I was in the eighth grade, I had a friend. We were shy and“too serious” about our studies when it was becoming fashionable with our classmates to learn acceptable social behaviors. We said little at school, but she would come to my house and we would sit down with pencils and paper, and one of us would say:“Let's start with a train whistle today.” We would sit quietly together and write separate poems or stories that grew out of a train whistle. Then we would read them aloud. At the end of that school year, we, too, were changing into social creatures and the stories and poems stopped.
When I lived for a time in London, I had a friend. He was in despair(失望) and I was in despair. But our friendship was based on the idea in each of us that we would be sorry later if we did not explore this great city because we had felt bad at the time. We met every Sunday for five weeks and found many excellent things. We walked until our despairs disappeared and then we parted. We gave London to each other.
For almost four years I have had a remarkable friend whose imagination illuminates mine. We write long letters in which we often discover our strangest selves. Each of us appears, sometimes in a funny way, in the other's dreams. She and I agree that, at certain times, we seem to be parts of the same mind. In my most interesting moments, I often think:“Yes, I must tell…” We have never met.
It is such comforting companions I wish to keep. One bright hour with their kind is worth more to me than the lifetime services of a psychologist(心理学家), who will only fill up the healing silence necessary to those darkest moments in which I would rather be my own best friend.
28. In the eighth grade, what the author did before developing proper social behavior was to ________
A. become serious about her study
B. go to her friend's house regularly
C. share poems and stories with her friend
D. learn from her classmates at school
29. In Paragraph 3, “We gave London to each other” probably means “________”.
A. we were unwilling to tear ourselves away from London
B. our exploration of London was a memorable gift to both of us
C. our unpleasant feeling about London disappeared
D. we parted with each other in London
30. In the darkest moments, the author would prefer to ________.
A. seek professional help B. break the silence
C. stay with her best friend D. be left alone
31. What is the best title for the passage
A. Unforgettable Experiences B. Remarkable Imagination
C. Great Companions D. Lifelong Friendship
D
How can a creature weighing over 5 tons and normally taking 150 kilograms food and 120 liters of water per day survive in a desert environment
In the southwest African country of Namibia, and the Sahara lands of Mali further north, the desert elephant does just that.
Although not regarded as a separate species from the African elephant, the desert cousin differs in many ways. Their bodies are smaller, to absorb less heat, and their feet are larger for easier walking across sandy surfaces. They are taller to reach higher branches. They have shorter tusks(象牙), and most importantly, longer trunks to dig for water in riverbeds.
Desert elephants can travel over 70 kilometers in search for feeding grounds and water holes, and have a larger group of families. They drink only every 3-4 days, and can store water in a“bag” at the back of their throat, which is only used when badly needed. Desert elephants are careful feeders—— they seldom root up trees and break fewer branches, and thus maintain what little food sources are available. Young elephants may even eat the dung (粪便) of the female leader of a group when facing food shortage.
During drought they are unlikely to give birth to their young but with good rains the birthrate will increase greatly. Desert elephants have sand baths, sometimes adding their own urine (尿) to make them muddy!
As we continue to overheat our weak planet, it can only be hoped that other animal species will adapt as extraordinarily well to change as the desert elephant.
32. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 means “________”
A. remains in the African countries B. manages to live in desert areas
C. drinks 120 liters of water a day D. eats 150 kilograms of food daily
33. Desert elephants are called careful feeders because they ________.
A. rarely ruin trees B. drink only every 3-4 days
C. search for food in large groups D. protect food sources for their young
34. The author answers the question raised in the first paragraph with ________.
A. stories and explanations B. examples and conclusions
C. facts and descriptions D. evidences and arguments
35. What can be inferred from the last sentence in the passage
A. Overheating the earth can be stopped.
B. Not all animals are as smart as desert elephants.
C. The planet will become hotter and hotter.
D. Not all animal species are so adaptable.

The importance of learning outside goes beyond fresh air and fun. Spending time outdoors can expose (引入) kids to the concept(概念) of climate change. Here are some tips.
●Keep a climate journal(日志). You can explain to your children that climate is a pattern of weather. 36 However, in recent years, extreme weather like storms and abnormal temperatures has occurred frequently. Have them keep a weather journal to get a sense of the climate.
● 37 Kids can help take care of plants, like vegetables or plants in a garden. Growing and looking after plants helps children understand that people have a role to play in helping living things meet their needs. Make connections between climate change and the needs of plants.
●Play some games. Encourage your children to head outside for a few rounds of nature scavenger hunt (寻物游戏), where you give them a list of items to find, like sticks, colorful leaves and rocks. It is also a good choice to play“I Spy”, which gets them to connect words with the natural world. 38
●Build an outdoor tool set. Put together an outdoor tool set with a magnifying glass(放大镜), a telescope and a container. 39 Then, try starting with something they are interested in, such as building a mini park or collecting natural items.
●Walk and talk. Go on walks with your kids frequently. Along the way observe and discuss how other members of the community are helping the environment. 40 Over time, under the guidance of parents, kids will grow into adults who care about the environment.
A. These tools allow kids to survive in the wild.
B. It used to be more stable.
C. Observe the plants around.
D. Look after the plants.
E. Putting these conversations into daily life keeps kids aware of climate change.
F. These tools can help kids find and collect natural samples and play freely.
G. Language enables kids to better connect to their environment.

It was the middle of the day on a bright sunny Saturday, and Jay and his friends Mike and Tony were riding their dirt bikes on one of their favorite off-road trails. The trail twisted and turned through some incredible small woods. Occasionally they would stop to climb a tree and find a comfortable branch to sit on so they could take a break from riding in the heat.
On this particular day, the three kids were settled in one of their preferred trees when Jay spotted something shiny on the ground. “What could that be ” he asked Mike and Tony as he pointed out the object reflecting the sun.
They all hopped down from their individual branches and went to take a closer look. What they found was unbelievable. It was a gold money clip(钱夹) holding five hundred dollars.
Mike immediately cried out, “Awesome! We can split up the money, and we will each be much closer to being able to buy the new bikes we want.”
“Not so fast,” said Tony. “Jay was the one who spotted the cash. To be fair, he should get more.”
“Are you guys crazy ” asked Jay. “We can’ t keep the money. It isn’ t ours. Aren’ t we more mature (成熟的) than to play finders keepers like we did when we were kids ”
“Stop being such an advocate(提倡者) for honesty,” complained Mike and Tony.
“Let's all go home and think about this,” said Jay, knowing that he could have made the call (做决定) because he was the one who spotted the money clip in the first place.
Mike and Tony agreed to Jay's suggestion. Jay kept the money and they all rode their bikes home. They decided to meet up after dinner at the head of the off-road trail.
Mike and Tony lived on the same street so they rode home most of the way together. They were able to talk a bit more without Jay's input. The more they talked, the more they came to see Jay's point.
Paragraph 1:
After dinner, as agreed, the three kids met back up.
Paragraph 2:
The next morning, Jay received a phone call asking him to go to the police station.

W: Good evening, and welcome to the Channel 5 weather report. This weekend we expect to see stormy weather throughout the northeast region. Along the coast, there will be strong winds and heavy rain starting Friday. For those living further inland, away from the ocean, it will be less windy, but it will still be a very wet weekend. If you live in or near the mountains, stay warm and get ready for the heavy snow! Icy roads and snow will make it dangerous to go out or travel on Saturday, so it’ll be best to do indoor activities at home. Local officials are warning of possible power cut throughout the entire region. We at Channel 5 encourage everyone to keep a flashlight and spare batteries at home in case there’s no electricity. We also want to remind you to keep your mobile phones and battery packs fully charged. Fortunately, this storm system should pass quickly, and you can look forward to sunny skies starting Tuesday.
