Katie always felt there had to be something more to life than just partying，buying clothes and driving a cool car. She finally discovered what she was missing out on when she traveled halfway around the world to help poor kids.
When she was 14，she discovered a club at school called Operation Smile，an organization that supports free operation for facially deformed kids in developing countries. At that time，she joined Operation Smile just to satisfy her school's community service requirement.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
After working with Operation Smile for a while，she learned different countries have different deformities(畸形)．The more she learned about what affects kids around the world，the more she wanted to go abroad with Operation Smile.
At 15，she was chosen to go abroad. She was so happy—even though she didn't realize what she was getting herself into. Before her trip，she attended a weekend “mission training”. That's when she was told she'd be going to the Philippines. Although she was excited，one night during training，she broke down in tears. She didn't know if she was prepared to see all these unfortunate kids. She was put to work three days after her arrival in the Philippines. Her first day was at the hospital，where she met those kids waiting for operation，and they were running around and happy, it seemed normal. Her job was to play with the kids before their operation to help them feel more at ease. She also went to nearby schools to hand out toothbrushes and teach students how to brush their teeth.【版权所有：21教育】

Modern zoos are different from those built fifty years ago. At that time zoos were places where people could go to see animals from many parts of the world. Animals lived in cages with iron bars. Although the zoo keepers took good care of them, many of the animals did not feel conformable, and they often fell ill.
In modern zoos, people can see animals in more natural conditions. Animals are given more freedom in larger places so that they can live as they would in nature. Even the appearance of zoos has changed. There are trees and grass in cages, and water flows through the places the animals live in. There are few bars; instead, there is often a deep ditch, filled with water, which surrounds a space where several sorts of animals live together as they would naturally. In an American zoo, the visitor can walk through a huge special cage that is filled with trees, some small animals and many birds and large enough for the birds to live naturally. In a zoo in New York, with the use of special night light, people can observe certain animals that are active only at night, when most zoos are closed. Some zoos have special places for visitors to watch animals that live in the desert or under water.
Modern zoos not only show animals to visitors, but also keep and save rare animals. For this reason, fifty years from now, the grandchildren of today's visitors will still be able to enjoy watching these animals.
9．It seems that ________ is something most important for animals.
A．eating good food
B．living in cages
C．living with other animals
D．living in natural conditions
10．In modern zoos ________.
A．different kinds of animals are kept separately
B．animals are no longer taken good care of
C．animals have more freedom
D．visitors can walk wherever they like
11．In some zoos people can ________.
A．walk through huge special cages to watch all sorts of animals
B．see animals which live in special conditions
C．during the day observe animals that are active at night
D．watch all the rare animals that may not be seen in the future
12．The main idea of the passage is that ________.
A．zoos are now places where animals can live naturally
B．zoos are places where people can see animals from all over the world
C．there should be old and modern zoos alike
D．rare animals may soon die out
D
A boss decided to choose a CEO(首席执行官)to run the business.
One day he called all the young executives(主管)in his company together and said，“I will choose the new CEO from all of you.”
The young executives were shocked, but the boss continued.
“I am going to give each one of you a seed today. I want you to plant it, and come back here one year later with what you have grown from the seed. I will then judge the plants that you bring，and the one I choose will be the next CEO.”
One man named Jim received a seed like the others. He went home and planted the seed. Every day，he would water it and watch to see if it had grown. Six months went by, but nothing ever grew. He knew he had killed his seed.

When the boss arrived, he surveyed the room and said, “What great plants and flowers you have grown！” All of a sudden，the boss asked Jim to the front. Jim was terrified. He thought，“Maybe he will have me fired！” When Jim got to the front，the boss asked him what had happened to his seed—Jim told him the story. The boss asked everyone to sit down except Jim. He looked at Jim，and then announced (宣布) to the young executives，“Jim is the new CEO ！”
“How could he be the new CEO？”the others asked.
Then the boss said，“One year ago today, I gave you all boiled seeds—it was not possible for them to grow. All of you, except Jim, have brought me trees and plants and flowers. Jim was the only one with the courage and honesty to bring me a pot with my seed in it. Therefore，he is the one who will be the new CEO！”
13．How did Jim feel when the boss asked him about the plant?
A．Surprised. B．Disappointed.
C．Sorry. D．Frightened.
14．What can NOT be learned from the text?
A．The boss liked to grow plants.
B．Jim had thought he killed the seed.
C．Jim was surprised when seeing others'plants.
D．All the executives except Jim took what they grew.www-2-1-cnjy-com

Family-themed gifts
One choice is a family photo taken by a professional or even a painting created by a professional artist using a family photo as the image to be painted. __20__ If the parents don't have a DVD player, the player can be included as part of the gift.
A．Sometimes gifts don't have to be objects bought with money.
B．Brothers and sisters can share the cost of the party.
C．And these gifts reflect a lot of thoughts and efforts.
D．So the gift should be one selected specially for parents.

2．B 解析：由后面的举例：English one of these.Many，many people use it...可知，此处指有几种语言较重要。21世纪教育网版权所有

13．B 解析：同上。
14．A 解析：考查语法。分析句子结构“Imagine __14__ a small child does.”可知__14__a small child does.是宾语从句，在宾语从句中缺少宾语，应用“what”。
15．B 解析：常识：学语言时，要一直用这种语言说话，并且用它思考。
16．D 解析：根据句意：想象一下这要付出多少实践。
17．A 解析：后文提示“...__18__ upon a lot of practice.”以及“practice needs great effort and __19__ much time.”可知“学好英语并不容易”。
18．A 解析：“depend on/upon”固定搭配，指“取决于；依靠”。
19．B 解析：此处指实践需要努力，需要花费许多时间。“take”此处表示“花费”之意。
20．B 解析：上下句是转折关系。

Every day we have to take in very dirty air ,which does great harm to our health. To make the air in the city fresher, we should keep the following in mind .www.21-cn-jy.com
Firstly, we should take a bus or ride a bicycle instead of driving a car and try to use cleaner fuels . Secondly, We should not throw litter here and there but put it into the dustbin . Thirdly , some factories should be closed or moved out of the city. Finally , we need to plant more trees or grass to make the air fresh.
Let’s take action and try our best to make the air in the city cleaner!

Katie always felt there had to be something more to life than just partying，buying clothes and driving a cool car. She finally discovered what she was missing out on when she traveled halfway around the world to help poor kids.
When she was 14，she discovered a club at school called Operation Smile，an organization that supports free operation for facially deformed kids in developing countries. At that time，she joined Operation Smile just to satisfy her school's community service requirement.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
After working with Operation Smile for a while，she learned different countries have different deformities(畸形)．The more she learned about what affects kids around the world，the more she wanted to go abroad with Operation Smile.
At 15，she was chosen to go abroad. She was so happy—even though she didn't realize what she was getting herself into. Before her trip，she attended a weekend “mission training”. That's when she was told she'd be going to the Philippines. Although she was excited，one night during training，she broke down in tears. She didn't know if she was prepared to see all these unfortunate kids. She was put to work three days after her arrival in the Philippines. Her first day was at the hospital，where she met those kids waiting for operation，and they were running around and happy, it seemed normal. Her job was to play with the kids before their operation to help them feel more at ease. She also went to nearby schools to hand out toothbrushes and teach students how to brush their teeth.【版权所有：21教育】

Modern zoos are different from those built fifty years ago. At that time zoos were places where people could go to see animals from many parts of the world. Animals lived in cages with iron bars. Although the zoo keepers took good care of them, many of the animals did not feel conformable, and they often fell ill.
In modern zoos, people can see animals in more natural conditions. Animals are given more freedom in larger places so that they can live as they would in nature. Even the appearance of zoos has changed. There are trees and grass in cages, and water flows through the places the animals live in. There are few bars; instead, there is often a deep ditch, filled with water, which surrounds a space where several sorts of animals live together as they would naturally. In an American zoo, the visitor can walk through a huge special cage that is filled with trees, some small animals and many birds and large enough for the birds to live naturally. In a zoo in New York, with the use of special night light, people can observe certain animals that are active only at night, when most zoos are closed. Some zoos have special places for visitors to watch animals that live in the desert or under water.
Modern zoos not only show animals to visitors, but also keep and save rare animals. For this reason, fifty years from now, the grandchildren of today's visitors will still be able to enjoy watching these animals.
9．It seems that ________ is something most important for animals.
A．eating good food
B．living in cages
C．living with other animals
D．living in natural conditions
10．In modern zoos ________.
A．different kinds of animals are kept separately
B．animals are no longer taken good care of
C．animals have more freedom
D．visitors can walk wherever they like
11．In some zoos people can ________.
A．walk through huge special cages to watch all sorts of animals
B．see animals which live in special conditions
C．during the day observe animals that are active at night
D．watch all the rare animals that may not be seen in the future
12．The main idea of the passage is that ________.
A．zoos are now places where animals can live naturally
B．zoos are places where people can see animals from all over the world
C．there should be old and modern zoos alike
D．rare animals may soon die out
D
A boss decided to choose a CEO(首席执行官)to run the business.
One day he called all the young executives(主管)in his company together and said，“I will choose the new CEO from all of you.”
The young executives were shocked, but the boss continued.
“I am going to give each one of you a seed today. I want you to plant it, and come back here one year later with what you have grown from the seed. I will then judge the plants that you bring，and the one I choose will be the next CEO.”

He thought，“Maybe he will have me fired！” When Jim got to the front，the boss asked him what had happened to his seed—Jim told him the story. The boss asked everyone to sit down except Jim. He looked at Jim，and then announced (宣布) to the young executives，“Jim is the new CEO ！”
“How could he be the new CEO？”the others asked.
Then the boss said，“One year ago today, I gave you all boiled seeds—it was not possible for them to grow. All of you, except Jim, have brought me trees and plants and flowers. Jim was the only one with the courage and honesty to bring me a pot with my seed in it. Therefore，he is the one who will be the new CEO！”

14．What can NOT be learned from the text?

Family-themed gifts

13．B 解析：同上。
14．A 解析：考查语法。分析句子结构“Imagine __14__ a small child does.”可知__14__a small child does.是宾语从句，在宾语从句中缺少宾语，应用“what”。
15．B 解析：常识：学语言时，要一直用这种语言说话，并且用它思考。
16．D 解析：根据句意：想象一下这要付出多少实践。
17．A 解析：后文提示“...__18__ upon a lot of practice.”以及“practice needs great effort and __19__ much time.”可知“学好英语并不容易”。
18．A 解析：“depend on/upon”固定搭配，指“取决于；依靠”。
19．B 解析：此处指实践需要努力，需要花费许多时间。“take”此处表示“花费”之意。
20．B 解析：上下句是转折关系。

Dear Smith,
I’m writing to tell you some measures that our city has taken . These days one major environmental problem in our city is air pollution. Every day we have to take in very dirty air ,which does great harm to our health. To make the air in the city fresher, we should keep the following in mind .www.21-cn-jy.com
Firstly, we should take a bus or ride a bicycle instead of driving a car and try to use cleaner fuels . Secondly, We should not throw litter here and there but put it into the dustbin . Thirdly , some factories should be closed or moved out of the city. Finally , we need to plant more trees or grass to make the air fresh.
Let’s take action and try our best to make the air in the city cleaner!
I’m looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
