解析：考查情态动词及动词时态。句意：——杰克，你能帮我倒垃圾吗？——对不起，我不能，妈妈。我现在正在做作业。对“could you please．．．”的肯定回答是Yes, I can，否定回答是Sorry, I can't。根据“now”可知，“我”现在正在做作业，应为现在进行时。
7．—Becky, we're leaving in several minutes．Are you ready
—No, I B my clothes yet．
A．have packed B．．haven't packed
C．didn't pack
解析：考查动词时态。句意：——贝基，我们几分钟后就要走了。你准备好了吗？——不，我还没收拾衣服。根据“yet”可知，本句用现在完成时，结合“No”可知，还没有收拾好衣服。

解析：考查动词时态。句意：我刚买了两张票！我将和托尼一起去看这部新电影。根据“I've just got two tickets！”可知，这里指刚买了两张票，所以是将要去看电影，应用一般将来时，结构为“will＋动词原形”。
9．—Sorry, I can't hear you clearly．I C a football match．

A．watch B．．watched

解析：考查动词时态。句意：——对不起，我听不清你说什么。我正在看一场足球赛。——好的。我稍后给你打电话。根据“I can't hear you clearly”可知，因为正在看球赛，所以没有听清对方所说的话，故此处用现在进行时am/is/are doing。
10．—Tina, I called you just now but nobody answered．
—Oh, I B a shower．
A．am taking B．．was taking
C．has taken
解析：考查动词时态。句意：——蒂娜，我刚才打电话给你，但没人接。——哦，我在洗澡。根据“I called you just now but nobody answered”可知，此处指打电话的时候正在洗澡，用过去进行时was doing。

Ⅲ．阅读理解
The Horsetail Fall is one of Yosemite National Park's most amazing views．Around the second week of February, the setting sun hits the Horsetail Fall at just the right angle(角度) to light the upper parts of the waterfall．And when conditions are right, the Horsetail Fall becomes orange and red at sunset．It is like red hot lava(熔岩) pouring down from the top of the El Capitan．So, it got the name “firefall”．
The firefall is a perfect match of the weather, the fall, the time and the watching place．It usually appears on dry, warm and cloudless days．There must be enough flowing water to make a firefall too．So there must be enough snow on the mountain top, and it turns into water on warm afternoons．
The sun goes to the best place before the fall in late February．And the best time to watch the fall is 5 to 15 minutes before the sunset．Only at this time can visitors see the firefall．The El Capitan Picnic Area is the best place to watch, because it is close to the fall and is perfect to set up cameras and tents．
Every year in February, thousands of photographers come to watch the firefall．Although the view may appear just minutes before sunset, many of them have to come hours earlier to get a right place to set their cameras in time．“I'm just saying that the Yosemite Firefall is something you don't want to miss during the winter，” says Kate Moore．
(　A　)1．Paragraph 1 mainly tells us ．
A．how the firefall got its name
B．why it's easy to see the firefall
C．who was the first to find the firefall
(　C　)2．What can we know about the firefall
A．It lasts for half an hour before the sunset．
B．It usually appears on wet, warm and cloudy days．
C．Its best watching place is the El Capitan Picnic Area．
(　A　)3．From the words of Kate Moore, we can infer that ．
A．the firefall is worth seeing
B．it's dangerous to watch the
firefall
C．it's a waste of time to visit the firefall
(　B　)4．What's the theme of the passage
A．Art．　　 B．Nature．
C．Technology．
Ⅳ．语法填空
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入一个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Last March I lost my camera while I was on a school trip．I left it on the bus on the way back to 1． our (we) school．I called the bus company the next day 2． to check (check) if they could find it, but it wasn't there．My parents got really angry and told me they couldn't buy me a new one．
I 3． knew (know) they were right, so I decided I would get one by myself．I started thinking of ways to make and save money．My parents 4． usually (usual) give me ￡8 every week, so the first thing I did was to keep the money 5． in the small box on the bookcase．
