The months are familiar to everyone. Nearly any small child can rattle off the twelve months of the year. But how and why did the names come into being?
Every month’s name tells a story. January is named after Janus, a Roman god described as having two faces, one looking forward and one looking back. As the god of doors, he had to watch out for friends and enemies coming from either direction.
February is a form of februare, which was a Roman festival. On that day, people begged the gods for healthy children and enough crops in the next year.
March is named after Mars, whom many people have read about as the god of wars. Few people realize that at first Mars was the god of springtime. Fighters would “take the winter off” from fighting, resting while the weather was too bad for the battle. In the spring-around what we now think of as March battles would start again. From this time line, Mars soon became more well known as the god of wars than of springtime.
April is a mystery. Experts argue a lot about the origin of it.
May is also named after a goddess, Maika. She was the goddess of plants, because plants often begin to have flowers in May.21教育网
Not every month kept the same name over the years. The first name for July was Quintilis, “the fifth month”. August was at first called Sextilis, “the sixth month”. Likewise, September, October, November, and December were the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth months. How did July and August get their new names? July was named after Julius Caesar, the first emperor of Rome, after he was killed in 66 BC. August was named after Augustus Caesar, Julius Caesar’s nephew.
24. The underlined phrase “rattle off” in Paragraph 1 probably means “_______”.
A. shake until something drops off
B. say something quickly from memory
C. get rid of D. feel unhappy
25. The writer’s main purpose in writing the passage is to _______.
A. explain how the months got their names
B. show why there are twelve months and not just ten months
C. show how important human activities are in deciding the names of the months
D. suggest the new names for the twelve months
26. According to the passage, Janus needed both of his faces because _______.
A. he was the caretaker of fighters in the battle
B. he was the god of the beginning of the year
C. he had to look in both directions as the god of doors【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
D. he had more days in his month than in the other months
27. According to the passage, which of the following months is named after a festival?
A. February. B. March. C. April. D. May.

Have you ever done something foolish that made you feel so embarrassed(尴尬的)?
Well, that’s exactly how I felt. On a Saturday morning last autumn, I had gone to town to do some shopping and as I was on my way home, it suddenly began to rain. I at once ran into a nearby phone box because I didn’t have an umbrella. It was raining so heavily that I have to stay in the phone box until it stopped．
A few moments later, I saw a young man walk up to the phone box, wearing a yellow raincoat and holding a box. I didn’t want to go out into the rain, so I picked up the phone and pretended(假装) I was talking to someone. I thought the man would go away, but he didn’t. He just waited in the rain, watching me. I had to wave my hands about and acted as if I was deep in conversation.
Luckily, it began to stop after about ten minutes. “Okay, Mum,” I said loudly into the phone, “I’ll see you later, Bye!” I put the phone down, picked up my shopping bag and walked out of the phone box “I’m sorry I took so long,” I said to the man．
“Oh, I don’t want to use the phone,” he replied, smiling. “I’ve just come to repair it. It’s out of order, you see.” I felt myself go red in the face and I hurried away with my head down, feeling a complete fool. That was certainly one of the most embarrassing moments of my life!
28. Why did the writer go to the phone box and stay there?
A. Because she wanted to keep warm.
B. Because she wanted to phone her mother.

Since his students began using Quizlet, English teacher Tristan Thorne has noticed an improvement in their ability to learn and use new words. Quizlet is a learning App, a computer program you use on your mobile phone. It can help users build and test their knowledge of English words. Quizlet has word sets for millions of subjects. And, it is quickly becoming a useful mobile tool for language learners.
Thorne teachers at Columbia University in New York City. Thanks to learning Apps, Jeff Strack, another English teacher, has also noticed improvement in his students’ ability to remember information. He teaches at Hostos Community College, also in New York. He and Thorne are part of a growing number of language educators adding mobile Apps to their classes.21世纪教育网版权所有
Strack and Thorne seem to agree that the days when teachers would not permit the use of mobile phones are gone. When they use Apps, language learners communicate more differently than in a traditional classroom. Users act on or respond to something, instead of just listening to new information.
Thorne believes that Apps can help learners become more active in learning. For example, each week, his students are required to add vocabulary words into Quizlet for others to use. He says some Apps also make it easy for students to know their language strengths and weaknesses.
The biggest improvement Strack has seen in his students is that they are much more active in whole-class or small-group discussions. “Apps let all students take part in the activity, whether it’s a game, quiz or practice activity.” he says.
Many existing learning Apps are designed for students of all ages and levels. Some are designed for group activities. some support independent learning. Still some are good for homework. Thorne says he especially likes Quizlet and three other Apps: QR Codes, Socrative and Evernote.
32. What do Strack and Thorne do to improve their teaching?
A. They design learning Apps for their students.
B. They don’t allow their students to use Apps after class
C. They allow their students to use mobile Apps to study
D. They order their students not to use mobile phones in class
33. According to the text, Apps can help language learners __________.
A. take an active part in learning
B. save much time and money
C. remember their weaknesses
D. improve personal designing skills
34. What can we learn about the existing learning Apps?
A. They have three types in total
B. They are too few to choose from
C. They are only designed for homework
D. They are designed for different uses
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Great changes in science and technology
B. The use of mobile phones will be gone
C. Ways to choose from different mobile Apps
D. Better language learning with mobile Apps

Dear Linda,
Thank you for inviting me to your birthday party on Sunday afternoon.
I would like to go but I am afraid that I can’t make it. My grandpa, who lives in the countryside, fell ill suddenly, so my parents are taking me to see him on Saturday. We won’t come back home until Sunday evening. I’m terribly sorry about this. I know that you are learning Chinese, so I bought you a Chinese-English dictionary as a birthday present. I will ask Liu Hong to take it to you.
I wish you a happy time at the party!
Yours
Li Hua
