On Sept. 21 in Mount Pleasant Township, Pennsylvania, a residence was burning with a girl trapped on the
second story. Elijah Hale, a volunteer firefighter since his early teenage years, was able to be on the scene before
other first responders got there, and his head start saved the life of that girl. “I knew something was not right, and I
found out that there was a girl trapped up there,” Elijah said. “The smoke had filled the entire house.”
He was able to quickly locate a ladder and use it to rescue the girl from the fiery house, according to a post
from the Irishtown Fire Company.
“Elijah Hale,” the company posted shortly after the rescue, “a member of the Irishtown Fire Company, came
upon tonight’s house fire on Bender Road, and utilized a ladder, climbing up to the second floor, and rescuing a
trapped resident.”
“Our company is proud of his quick thinking, and willingness to take action without the benefit of PPE
(Personal Protective Equipment) or other firemen on the scene. His quick action undoubtedly saved a life. Well
done Elijah.”
Elijah isn’t taking all the credit, though, pointing out that the girl had done some quick thinking of her own
that likely saved her life, too. “I believe she found a guitar and used that to break the storm window out,” he said.
“If she didn’t do that, the longer she was exposed to that smoke, the worse off it would have been for her.”
The whole ordeal (磨难) was over within minutes and as soon as he got her out, EMS (Emergency Medical
Service) was pulling up, so he left her with them.
“It’s a blur. I mean it was probably 30 seconds from the time I pulled up to the time I got the ladder, and
another 30 seconds till she was out of the house and outside,” he recalled.
24.What do we know about Elijah Hale from the first paragraph
A.He was sent by the fire company. B.The resident asked him for help.
C.Other responders got him there. D.He came across the incident by accident.
25.What does the underlined word “utilized” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean
A.Produced. B.Used. C.Bought. D.Managed.
26.Which of the following words can best describe Elijah Hale
A.Brave and modest. B.Proud and serious.
C.Generous and smart. D.Pitying and strong.
27.What can we infer about the girl from the passage
A.She waited for firemen to save her. B.She caused the fire carelessly.
C.She did some self-rescue herself. D.She avoided being exposed to smoke.
Have you ever thought about why malls, restaurants, and even theaters have music Well, to understand this,
you simply just look back at how you felt when you heard music in these places. Music is known to improve the
mood of people. Often music helps us pay attention to what we are doing. Music helps patients feel good and helps
them recover faster and better.
Depression (沮丧 ) is a state of mind that most of us experience at some point of time. There are some
periods in our life when everything seems difficult. It seems that everything is getting worse and we have no
control over our life. Studies have shown that music can be an important mood lifter in such situations. Music also
plays a great role in making us feel less nervous or worried. Anxiety can often cause loss of sleep and other
illnesses.
Music is often known as an international language. We may not know the language another person is
speaking, but most of us respond to music in the same way. Music can often be the best way to connect with
someone.
Music is one of the best ways to improve your moods, but this can depend largely on the kind of music you
listen to. While happy music can certainly make you feel better, sad music can further lower your spirits. Listening
to classical music can often make you feel a lot more powerful, while soft music can be the perfect way to relax at
the end of a long way. If you want to use music to change the way how you are feeling, you need to understand the
role of it, learn to recognize the kind of music that lifts your mood and helps you feel better. Once you realize the
kind of music you can use, you can use it to change the way you feel. The right kind of music can be the perfect
way to help us feel happier.
28.The passage is mainly about ________.
A.what meanings music has B.how we control our moods
C.how music affects our moods D.what kind of music we listen to
29.According to the passage, playing music in restaurants is to ________.
A.welcome the customers B.make customers feel good
C.make customers dance D.make customers feel depressed
30.From the passage, we can know that ________.
A.most of us suffer depression all the time
B.most of us respond to music in different ways
C.music can be a good way to connect with others
D.any kind of music will help us improve our moods
31.According to the passage, which kind of music can relax ourselves from a long day’s work
A.Soft music. B.Classical music. C.Sad music. D.Rock music.
Researchers from the University of Western Australia recently studied 3,000 middle and high school
students. Among them were 618 teenagers with one parent who lived away from home for long periods of time
because of work. The researchers wanted to know how the work of these “fly-in, fly-out" parents might influence
the health of their children.
A higher percentage of teenagers who experienced the long work absence of a parent had emotional or
behavioral problems compared with those whose parents worked more traditional hours. This supports earlier
research finding high percentages of emotional problems in teenagers who often returned to an empty house after
school or whose parents were seldom at dinner.
Findings also suggest that parents don’t have to be home all the time to be present in their children’s lives,
but it helps to be home at certain times. And the best parental presence for a teenager may sometimes be like a
potted plant.
Many parents of teenagers have known this to be true and find ways to be present without trying to start a
conversation. One friend of mine quietly does housework each evening in the sitting room where her teenagers
watch TV.
They enjoy one another’s company without the need to talk. Another friend usually accepts his daughter's
invitation to work or read nearby while she sits and does her homework. Perhaps, that, at least for some families, is
the best way for a teenager and their parents to stay close.
In fact, many years of research suggest that children use their parents as a safe base from which to explore
the world. Studies tell us that young children quietly follow their parents’ movements from room to room, even
while carrying on with their own activities. Perhaps our teens, like babies, feel most at ease when their parents are
still around. They don’t want to stay away from parents who allow them freedom.
A new school year is at hand, so as parents we could offer our teenagers a “potted flower" as a gift, whose
quiet and steady presence will give them a great day.
32.What did the study find about the 618 teens
A.They had more dinners with their parents.
B.They were more prepared to help themselves.
C.They were more likely to have trouble with their feelings.
D.They showed more dislike for traditional working hours.
33.What is the author’s attitude to her two friends' practices
A.She doubts them. B.She supports them.
C.She is worried about them. D.She cares little about them.
34.What does earlier research say about young kids according to paragraph 6
A.They prefer parents’ quiet company. B.They want more freedom from parents.
C.They pay attention to parents' behavior. D.They show more interest in new activities.
35.What is the best title for the text
A.Teens want potted plant parents B.Your kids still need conversation
C.Quiet families raise healthier teenagers D.Parents know little about today's teenagers
Nowadays, people are often very busy, working hard almost day and night. For a better life, many people
think it’s worth it. 36 Undoubtedly, people need spare time to be free and do fun things, like winter
camping. Most people are talking especially about snow camping when they mention winter camping.
37 In areas with snow, campers can go skiing, climbing, or ice skating. And some people enjoy
creating fun things from snow, or just horsing around in the snow. And a camping trip often requires hiking,
although campers generally travel less far than they do in the summer.
There are many well-known places suitable for camping. Throughout the year, these places usually attract
more campers in the summer. So, it can be more crowded in this season. Campers who don’t like a crowded place
can instead choose to go camping there in the winter. 38
But colder weather means more preparations. Winter campers should be sure that they have clothes which
can keep them warm. 39 Besides, campers need to bring good tents and enough food. Other camping tools
like cook stoves are also necessary.
While winter camping can be quite fun, the colder weather can make a camping trip more dangerous. 40
Winter campers should always check on weather reports before they leave. A small weather radio is an excellent
tool to bring along. And it’s wise to take a guided winter camping trip for the first camping experience.
A.Being busy brings success.
B.It can give them more peace.
C.Sleeping bags are also needed.
D.And choose to go with many friends.
E.But not enough relaxation may be bad for health.
F.So it’s important to fully prepare for winter camping.
G.Like summer camping, winter camping offers many activities.
三、完形填空

41 of Marisa Thomas are among them. Marisa 42 the world as a beautiful baby. As the Thomases were

六、书面表达
67.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。
When I was eight years old, my seven—year—old cousin, Juliana, got sick. My brother and I were in the
family room watching television when my mom came in to tell us the bad news. I wasn’t really sure what a heart
operation meant, but I could tell it wasn’t a good thing. Juliana’s family was on a tight budget (预算), so was mine.
My parents’ faces were full of worry and tears, and that was enough to make me cry, too.
When we went to see Juliana in the hospital, she was lying in bed,and she had tubes (管子) and other things
hooked to her. It was confusing and scary.
The treatments continued, but Juliana was weaker and weaker. Every time I visited her, it was hard for me to
believe her change. She seemed to lose all her strength and her lovely face turned pale. She lost a lot of weight even
though she had proper food. As a child, I really couldn’t understand what the doctors were doing to her—it seemed
like they were making her feel worse not better.
Seeing my cousin in so much pain made me feel like my own heart was aching. Something needed to be
done. I knew I wanted to help her get better faster, but at eight years old, I wasn’t sure how I could make a
difference—I just knew I had to do something to help her.
One night after we visited Juliana, all the way home I couldn’t stop thinking about her. A hospital can be a
very scary, cold place. I imagined how lonely Juliana must have felt lying there during the night.
When we got home, I sat down at our kitchen table. I always liked writing stories and drawing pictures, and I
started working at it like I had done so many other nights. But this night was different—I was thinking about
Juliana. I thought, “Juliana is going to receive rehabilitation training (康复训练) but money is tight. What if I can
sell my drawings Then I can raise money to help her get well faster.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为 150 左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When I told my parents, they thought it was a wonderful idea, but then we came up with an even better one.

I’m glad we finally went there.

comfortable shoes for long walks in the museum. Please bring a notebook with you and make some notes. We will
have a discussion about it in the class meeting next Monday. Oh, I nearly forget to remind you of the rules. Don’t
take pictures of the cultural relics. But if you do want to take a picture, you can do that in front of the museum. And
nobody is allowed to touch anything there, or else they will be fined. Have a nice weekend!

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了宾夕法尼亚州的一名志愿消防员以利亚 黑尔(Elijah Hale)在一场
房屋火灾中,在其他急救人员到达之前就赶到现场,利用梯子营救了被困在二楼的女孩的故事。同时提到
女孩也通过自己的机智打破窗户自救,最终这场磨难在几分钟内结束。
24.细节理解题。根据文章第一段““I knew something was not right, and I found out that there was a girl trapped
up there,” Elijah said. “The smoke had filled the entire house.”(“我知道有些不对劲,然后我发现有个女孩被困在
上面,” 以利亚说。“整个房子都充满了烟雾。”)”可知,以利亚是偶然遇到了这场事故,然后发现了女孩被
困。故选 D 项。
25.词句猜测题。根据文章第三段““Elijah Hale,” the company posted shortly after the rescue, “a member of the
Irishtown Fire Company, came upon tonight’s house fire on Bender Road, and utilized a ladder, climbing up to the
second floor, and rescuing a trapped resident.”(“以利亚 黑尔,”该公司在救援后不久发布消息称,“爱尔兰镇
消防公司的一名成员,遇到了今晚本德路的房屋火灾,他 utilized 一个梯子,爬上二楼,救出了一名被困居
民。”)”可知,划线词下文提到了爬上二楼,救出了一名被困居民,此处说的是使用梯子去救女孩。由此可

Dear Henry,

our school lecture hall and last for a week.
The exhibition is a collection of works created by some famous paper-cutting artists in China, and you’ll
enjoy paper-cuttings of different colors and patterns on show. There is no doubt that this is a good chance for you
to learn more about Chinese traditional culture, and the exhibition is a great way to have a better understanding of
the beauty of Chinese paper-cuttings.
The exhibition is so excellent that you can’t miss it. I’d appreciate it if you could accept my invitation.
Yours,

67.One possible version:
When I told my parents, they thought it was a wonderful idea, but then we came up with an even better one.
We would make a cookbook. The very next day, I asked all of our family and friends to send me their favorite food
and ways to cook it. To my surprise, everyone jumped at the chance to help. Mom helped to put everything
together. Grandma typed while I drew the pictures for it. My idea for a small cookbook quickly grew to over one
hundred pages. The local skating club paid for the first printing. We sold almost 300 books in our first week. I
couldn’t believe it.
Soon, we made enough money to pay for Juliana’s rehabilitation training. Whenever I went to the hospital,
Juliana thanked me with a smile. Not only did she thank me in words, but also she made a great effort, carrying out
the instructions of her doctor and keeping doing light exercise every day. Soon she regained her strength and
recovered. Our stories were shared among other patients. I was really proud that I had tried to make a difference
and I made it!
