A
Brothers Ishmael a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd Isadore were complete opposites. People who knew them both could hardly believe they were from the same planet, let alone the same family. The boys were not unkind toward one another, but their personalities(个性)were so different that it was difficult for them to reach a decision they both liked. Their mother frequently played the judge in their disagreement.
Ishmael, t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he older brother, was athletic. He played baseball, football, and basketball .Isadore, the younger brother, hated sports. He was quieter and less active than his brother. He preferred spending his time on the computer, making short videos and writing short articles. Ishmael loved classic rock. He listened to bands like the Beatles. Isadore didn’t care much for those bands. He preferred music from Central Africa. Luckily for their parents, both boys enjoyed listening to music through headphones.
One othe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r thing the brothers did agree on was that they wanted a pet. Mom had resisted getting one, but after both brothers had begged, she finally agreed. “We can get a pet, as long as you two take care of it,” she said. That means you do the feeding, you do the training, and if it needs to be walked, you do the walking. “No problem, Mom,” Ishmael and Isadore said together. “Good, we all agree,” Mom said. “Now, what kind of pet are we going to get ”
21. The two brother ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s’ mother often had to be the judge when they ______.
A. played basketball B. had writing contests
C. couldn’t come ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to an agreement D. couldn’t reach a decision on headphones
22. The underline ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d word “resisted” in the last paragraph probably means“_______”.
A. disagreed with ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) B. insisted on C. regretted D. suggested
23. What will probably happen next
A. The brothers will both want a pet to play sports with.
B. The brothers can’t agree on what pet to get.
C. The brothers will both be unkind to the pet.
D. The brothers can’t agree on the pet’s name.
24. Which of the following is the best title for the passage

C. brothers of d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ifferent personalities D. brothers of different hobbies
B
“To another little girl.”
That’s what ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) 3-year-old Ariana of Winterport, Maine said when her father Josh Smith asked where her donated(捐赠的) hair was going to go. It was then that the dad of two realized his young daughter had a heart that was too big for words.
“I run a charity(慈善机构) called Extra Life where I play video games to help raise money for kids,” he said. “Ariana happened to be sitting next to me when a video was playing, showing a little girl who was bald, lying in a hospital bed with tubes in her.” When their daughter got curious, Smith and his wife Crystal explained how medicine made the child in the video lose her hair.
“Without a second thought, Ariana said ‘Oh, well she can have some of my hair,’” Smith said. “That’s when my wife told me that there are many organizations that we could donate it to.” The Smiths chose “Locks of Love” to send Ariana’s generous gift to a child with medical hair loss.
A week later, A ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )riana was taken to the family hairdresser where 10 inches was cut from her hair.
“It was her first ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) haircut,” Smith told ABC News. “She could be so selfless like that. Her first reaction(反应) is ‘How about me giving up something that I have, so a little girl can feel pretty '” Smith posted his daughter's moving gesture on his personal webpage, where it has received almost 645,000 views in just two days.
“She’ll ta ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ke an adult-like approach(方式) and it’s really amazing,” Smith said. “She is just a little kid, but if she sees somebody in need, she certainly cares for them. This made Ariana feel special and she’d certainly like to do it again.”
25. Which of the following can best describe Josh Smith
A. Brave. B. Easy-going. C. Warm-hearted. D. Determined.
26. Ariana decided to donate her hair when ________.
A .her father ad ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )vised her to do so B. she saw a sick girl in a video
C. she had her first haircut D she visited a hospital
27. What do we know about Ariana
A. She suffered medical hair loss.
B. Her story drew wide attention online.
C. She got little support from her parents.
D. She has called on people to donate hair like her.
C
Bottled water has become the choice for people who are healthy and thirsty. Bottled water is all over the world. But some say the planet’s health, and people’s health may be suffering from it.
The idea that bottle ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d water is safer for humans may not be true. The Natural Resources Defense Council of America said, “There is no promise that because water comes out of a bottle, it is cleaner or safer than water from the tap.” Another New York City-based action group added that some bottled water is “really just tap water in a bottle—sometimes more clean, sometimes not.”
It is not proven that bottled water is better than tap water. Nick Reeves from the Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management said, “The high mineral content(含量) of some bottled water makes them not good for feeding babies and young children.” Also, most bottled water doesn’t have fluoride(氟化物), which can make teeth stronger. Kids are drinking more bottled water and less fluoridated tap water, and some say that’s behind the recent rise in bad teeth.
Storing is another pro ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )blem. Placed near heat, the plastic bottles can produce bad chemicals(化学物质) into the water.
According to the E ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nvironmental Protection Agency, some 2.7 million tons of plastic are used worldwide to bottle water each year. The plastic can take between 400 and 1,000 years to break down.
In terms of energy ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )use, plastic bottles are also not cheap. One report said that if water and soft drink bottlers had used 10 percent recycled materials in their plastic bottles, they would have saved about 72 million gallons of gas.
So, if you are worri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed about the effect of bottled water on the Earth, you can take the following steps.
●Drink from your ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tap. Unless your government warns against this, it should be fine.
●Get a container(容 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )器). Carry your tap water in a steel or a lined drinking container, and clean it between uses.
●Keep it cool. Don’ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t drink from a bottle that has been sitting in the sun, don’t store it near chemicals, and don’t reuse plastic bottles.
●Choose glass ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )containers over plastic if possible. When finished, recycle!
28.What is the main idea of the article
A. Drinking tap water is the only choice for people.
B. Glass containers are better than plastic bottles.
C. Plastic bottles are harmful to the environment.
D. Bottled water may not be as good as we think.
29.What can we learn about plastic bottles from the article
A. They break down in less than 300 years.
B. They can be used for many other things.
C. They are a risk to the environment.
D. They are cheap to make.
30.According ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )to the article, we can know that bottled water is ______.
A. no problem for the environment B. more expensive than tap water
C. always safer than tap water D. better for babies
31.Which of the follo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )wing about tap water is NOT mentioned in the article
A. There are a lot of problems storing tap water.
B. Bottled water can be just tap water in a bottle.
C. It may be better for your teeth.
D. It may contain fluoride.
D
Owls(猫头鹰) are mysterio ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )us creatures. We often think of them as scary. They sometimes live in abandoned houses. They fly without a sound through backyards at night. In stories, they appear with ghosts. When we hear an owl's familiar “wh ooo...whooo...”,it can make us feel very frightened. Owls fly silently, without even a whisper of wings moving through the air. It's as though they appear out of nowhere—like ghosts on wings. Owls fly and hunt on the darkest of nights. An owl's night habits make it unique. Do these creatures of the night possess strange powers
Owls possess unusual p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )owers of sight and hearing, but they are not supernatural powers. They are natural adaptations that let them live most efficiently(高效地) at night. There is no reason to fear owls. Their habits make them helpful to humans. By hunting mice and other rodents(啮齿目动物),owls help to keep a natural balance between plant and animal life. Without owls, there would be a large number of rodents in farmers' fields and storage barns.
More than 100 species of owls occupy a variety of habitats around the world. A few oceanic islands and the Antarctic have no owls. The world's owls come in large, medium, small, smaller, and smallest. For example, the Eurasian eagle owl—one of the largest—has a body that is two to three feet long, with a wingspan(翼展) of up to five and one half feet. The North American elf owl (the world's smallest owl) is five to six inches long and has a wingspan that measures slightly more than one foot.
Most male and ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )female owls of the same species look alike, although females are usually larger. In some species, the female's colors are like those of the trees or grass where she makes her nest.
Baby owls, calle ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d chicks, stay with their parents until they are about three months old. They soon find their own hunting areas, where they may stay for the rest of their lives. Some owls can live 20 years or more.
32.Most people regard owls as________.
A.clever B.hard working C.terrifying D.shy
33.Owls help humans in that they________.
A.help preserve the balance of nature
B.frighten rodents away from humans
C.have unusual powers
D.help guard backyards
34.What is special about owls
A.They fly silently. B.They are night hunters.
C.They possess supern ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )atural powers. D.They can be found around the world.
35.The third paragraph is mainly about owls'________.
A.habitats B.sizes C.species D.wingspans

How to manage your time
For many high schoo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l students it seems that there is never enough time. There are several steps you can take to organize your time better.
First, make a to- ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )do list every day. It makes it easy to plan any activities or meetings you may have in addition to homework. Be sure to set priorities(优先的事物). 26
Use spare time w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )isely. Do you have a study hall(自习时间) Instead of wasting that time, read a book or do homework. 27 If a friend asks you to do something and you have homework to do, realize which is more important and see your friend later.
Decide on the time that is good for you to do certain things. If you are more of a morning person, try getting up an hour earlier and do schoolwork before school. Review your notes every day. 28 If you spend a few minutes at the end of every day going over what you learned, it will mean less time studying when it is time for the exam.
29 Studies have shown that getting enough rest helps your memory. When you are tired, everything seems more difficult. It is best to stay on a regular sleeping cycle as much as possible.
Tell your friends a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd family about your work timetable. Explain that you will be working at certain times and ask them not to disturb(打扰) you. 30 you can call your friends later.
A. Set goals for yourself. B. Get a good night’s sleep.
C. Do the most important tasks first. D. Also, do not be afraid to say “no”.
E. You should finish your task on time.
F. Don’t take phone calls during the time you set aside for work.
G. Don’t wait unt ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )il just before a test to try and remember everything.

Dear sir,
I am Li Hua. I am wr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )iting a letter to you to make a complaint about your restaurant.
I went to your re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )staurant to have a dinner with my friends, and we found something wrong with your restaurant. Fist, the food and dishes were of low quality. One dish was so salty that we found it hard to swallow it. Besides, the waiters’ attitude was also bad, they treated us impolitely, which made us unhappy. Finally, the restaurant was not very big, so many people were crowed in it. And some people didn’t like to stand in the queue, some even jumping the queue. What’s worse, no waiters stopped the bad manners.
We hope you can t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ake some measures to improve your restaurant, making it a better place. We are looking forward to our reply.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua
