Passage 1
Manners and customs are different all over the world, so you should pay special attention when you are abroad.
In Chinese friends can pat each other on the shoulder and touch any child they like. But in Mediterranean countries, if you don’t touch someone’s arm when talking to them or if you don’t greet them with kisses or a warm embrace(拥抱), you’ll be considered cold. But patting someone on the back who isn’t a family member or a good friend in Korea, and you’ll make them uncomfortable. In Thailand, the head is considered sacred(神圣的)—never even pat a child on the head.
Chinese people always think it’s very sick to blow your nose in public—especially at the table. The Japanese hate it even more. In public places in Japan, such as subway and shopping malls, it is a no-no to blow your nose. If you have to blow your nose, you can only go to the toilet. At the same time, the Japanese are disgusted(厌恶的) with using handkerchiefs.
It’s unpopular to talk while eating in China. Also in some African countries, the food’s the thing, so don’t start chatting about your day’s adventures(奇遇) while everyone else is enjoying the nice meal. You’ll probably be met with silence—not because your group is unfriendly, but because mealtimes are for eating, not talking.
Thumbs up is the most common gesture in China. It usually shows not only praise and approval(赞成), but also thanks. But in Greece and Russia, thumbing up is regarded as quite impolite. It is considered almost as rude as swearing(咒骂).
( )1. You can’t pat any kids on the ______ in Thailand.
A. arm B. head C. shoulder D. nose
( )2. The underlined word “cold” means ______ in Chinese.

●I often check my e-mails forty times a day.
●I often spend more than three hours during one time on the net.
●I spend more time in chat rooms than with my “real-life” friends.
Do you know any people like these They are part of a new addiction(瘾) called Internet addiction. Internet addicts spend at least thirty to forty hours online every week. The use of the Internet can be an addiction like drug(毒品) use. People lose control of the time they spend on the Internet.
For example, one college student was missing for several days. His friends were worried, and they called the police. The police found the student in the computer lab: he was surfing the net for several days all the time.
Studies show that about 6 to 10% of Internet users become addicted. And people worry about the teens because the Internet is changing the playing field for some of them. They spend more time in cyberspace than in the real world of friends and family.

Passage 3
Presents for Children’s Day on Sale!
It is well known that crayons are the ideal tool for children to learn color painting. The invention of crayons inspired(激励) children’s imagination and creativity and made their childhood colorful.
In 1885, Mr. Edwin Binney and Mr. C. Harold Smith set up Binney & Smith Company in New York. The company’s early products were mainly red paint and black powder(粉末) for making tires(轮胎). In 1900, at the new factory in Easton, Black Mill, the company made the first pencil for the school. In 1902, under the demand(需求) of school teachers, the company began to produce dust-free chalk, and achieved great success, and won the gold medal at the Saint Louis World Expo.
Alice Binney, Mr. Edwin Binney’s wife, was a teacher, found that children like to use a kind of thick black pencil to draw on paper. This was just the early crayon with only black color. So she suggested that the company should produce crayons in many colors. In 1903, they experimented with a series of colors and invented the world’s first box of modern crayons with black, brown, blue, red, green, orange, yellow and purple.
Then Alice Binney proposed to create the “Crayola” brand. She combined(结合) “Craie” in French with “oily” in English to create the new word－“crayola”. Since then, crayola has become the synonym(代名词) of crayon in the United States. Crayola was founded in 2007. Until now, Crayola has been one of the most popular children’s products brands in the world. With the development of science and technology, today’s crayons have reached 152 colors.

Passage 4
How would you feel if someone decided to take away your park Well that’s
what’s happening in my community. There’s a park that some people want to turn
into a golf course(高尔夫球场). Let me tell you why I think it’s a bad idea.
First, a park is meant to be for the whole community. Not everyone likes golf, so not everyone will get to use the park. This isn’t fair. A community park should have open spaces for everyone to use.
Second, to make way for the golf course, lots of playground equipment(设施) will have to be moved or knocked down, which is a waste of time and money. It’s also a waste of perfectly good equipment.
Third, what about giving young people something to do Not all kids are crazy about golf. At the moment, the park has a skating place and a playground. These attract lots of kids from the community. If you turn the park into a golf course, these kids won’t have anywhere to go and they won’t have anything to do. This means that they will stay at home and turn on a video game rather than get some exercise. It also means that they might be out on the street causing trouble. Wouldn’t it be better to give them something to do at the park
Finally, building a golf course and maintaining(维护) it costs a lot of money. What about those people who can’t afford to join a golf club That means that the golf course will only open to people with lots of money.
Turning our park into a golf course is a bad idea. I suggest we have a community meeting before plans go any further.
( )1. What does the first “everyone” in Paragraph 2 refer to
A. every young person B. all kids in the community
C. Every community user D. all the people in the community
( )2. What does the 4 paragraph mainly tells us
A. Children can enjoy themselves in the park.
B. Children may soon lose their favorite parks.
C. The park is the best place to attract children.
D. The impact of building a golf course on children.
( )3. Which of the following words can replace the underlined word “available”
A. open B. free C. necessary D. popular
( )4. Which of the following is TRUE
A. The park is much more popular than a golf course.
B. The people in the community are against building a golf course.
C. It is the best way to solve problems by holding community meetings.
D. Rich people hope to build the golf courses for them as soon as possible.
( )5. What’s the writer’s purpose in writing this passage
A. To help carry out further plans.
B. To try to protect public facilities.
C. To care about the growth of children.
D. To stop the golf course from being built.
Passage 5
Bob likes climbing very much. But there wasn’t one climbing club in his school at first, so he felt sad.
At the beginning of the second year of middle school, his school offered(提供) rock climbing lessons in order to encourage(鼓励) students to exercise. He was so happy that he joined at once.
In the first lesson, the coach said, “Rock climbing needs strength, speed, courage and persistence(坚持). All these are necessary.” But Bob thought rock climbing was just a fun activity. It interested him.
During the following classes, the coach asked the students to run 1,000 metres first, and then climb with a rope. When Bob finished running, he almost lost his breath and got bored. And he even did not want to touch the rope. He thought it was less interesting than before. The coach noticed that and asked him, “Why do you want to take rock climbing lessons ” “I come for fun, of course.” “Is that fun ” he asked. Bob shook his head slowly. The coach then explained patiently(耐心解释), “That’s because you stop halfway. You know, beautiful sights are always on the top.”
After hearing his words, Bob made up his mind to finish his journey. When he got to the top in the end, he felt really excited.
Sometimes it’s hard to reach the top of the mountain, but it’s a pity(遗憾) to stop halfway, so don’t give up.
( )1. The school offered rock climbing lessons was to ______.
A. develop students’ hobbies

This means that they will stay at home and turn on a video game rather than get some exercise. It also means that they might be out on the street causing trouble. Wouldn’t it be better to give them something to do at the park
Finally, building a golf course and maintaining(维护) it costs a lot of money. What about those people who can’t afford to join a golf club That means that the golf course will only open to people with lots of money.
Turning our park into a golf course is a bad idea. I suggest we have a community meeting before plans go any further.

【答 案】1～5 DDACD
【解 析】
1. D 词语指代题 短文第2段说公园是为整个社区而建的。不是每个人都喜欢高尔夫……社区公园应该有供每个人使用的开放空间。由此可知第一个everyone指的是社区里的所有人，即all the people in the community。故选D。
2. D 细节理解题 短文第4段主要谈到如果把公园变成高尔夫球场，孩子们将无处可去，无所事事，甚至可能在街上惹麻烦。这些都是把公园变成高尔夫球场对孩子们的影响。故选D。
3. A 词义猜测题 短文第5段说高尔夫是昂贵的，那些没钱的人不能加入高尔夫俱乐部，联系画线单词后的people with lots of money可知，高尔夫球场将只是有钱人可获得的公共资源。所以画线单词available意为“可获得的”，原句“高尔夫球场将只是有钱人可获得的公共资源”可以理解为：高尔夫球场将只是对有钱人开放。所以选项中open能代替available。故选A。
4. C 细节理解题 短文从第2到第5段主要讲述了作者阻止建高尔夫球场的理由，最后一句是对上述理由的总结，且建高尔夫球场需通过社区会议征得社区居民的表决和通过，这是阻止建高尔夫球场的最好办法。所以It is the best way to solve problems by holding community meetings.说法正确。故选C。
5. D 作者意图题 短文从第2到第5段作者主要讲述了把公园变成高尔夫球场是个坏主意的原因，最后一段再次重申把公园变成高尔夫球场是个坏主意，并建议我们在计划进一步推进之前先开个社区会议。“坏主意”和“开个社区会议”都是作者阻拦制止把公园变成高尔夫球场的理由，所以作者写这篇文章的目的主要是阻止高尔夫球场的修建。故选D。
Passage 5
Bob likes climbing very much. But there wasn’t one climbing club in his school at first, so he felt sad.
At the beginning of the second year of middle school, his school offered(提供) rock climbing lessons in order to encourage(鼓励) students to exercise. He was so happy that he joined at once.

And he even did not want to touch the rope. He thought it was less interesting than before. The coach noticed that and asked him, “Why do you want to take rock climbing lessons ” “I come for fun, of course.” “Is that fun ” he asked. Bob shook his head slowly. The coach then explained patiently(耐心解释), “That’s because you stop halfway. You know, beautiful sights are always on the top.”
After hearing his words, Bob made up his mind to finish his journey. When he got to the top in the end, he felt really excited.

【答 案】1～5 BBDAC
【解 析】
1. B 信息提示题 根据短文第2段首句的his school offered rock climbing lessons in order to encourage students to exercise.可知，学校开设攀岩课是为了鼓励学生锻炼身体。故选B。
2. B 词语指代题 上一段说鲍勃对攀岩很感兴趣并参加了攀岩课，画线单词前几句讲述的是是攀岩训练的过程。跑完后，他几乎喘不过气来，感到无聊。他甚至不想碰绳子。他认为攀岩没有之前有趣了，所以此处的 it 指代“攀岩”。故选B。
3. D 信息提示题 短文第4段最后教练说：“那是因为你中途停了下来。你知道，美丽的景色总是在顶部。”联系当时鲍勃感到很无聊，认为攀岩没之前有趣而想放弃可知，教练所说的话意味着鼓励鲍勃不要中途放弃。故选D。
4. A 细节理解题 根据...there wasn’t one climbing club in his school at first, so he felt sad ... He was so happy that he joined at once.可知，刚开始学校没有攀岩俱乐部，鲍勃很伤心；之后他们学校开设了攀岩课程，他很开心；根据When Bob finished running, he almost lost his breath and got bored可知，跑完之后，他感到很无聊；根据 When he got to the top in the end, he felt really excited可知，到达顶端之后，他很兴奋。故选A。
5. C 文章标题题 本文主要介绍了鲍勃参加了学校开设的攀岩课程，刚开始他很兴奋，但接下来感到很无聊。教练告诉如果中途停下来，就看不到顶峰最美丽的风景。当他最终到达顶峰时，他感到非常激动。因此本文告诉我们有时很难到达顶峰，中途停下来很遗憾，即不要放弃。所以Don’t Give Up Halfway是本文的最佳标题。故选C。
