三.阅读理解：
A
Last year,I worked in a middle school near my mother’s house, and I stayed with her for a month. During that time, I helped her do some housework and buy some food.
After the first week, I noticed that the food was eaten up very quickly. Then I began keeping an eye on my mum. To my surprise, I found that she would put some of the food into a paper bag and go out with it at about nine every morning. And finally, I decided to follow her. I saw her taking the food to the street children. She would also spend a lot of time talking and playing with them.
One day, I talked to a neighbour and found out that my mum was well-known in the area. The children were very friendly with her and even thought of her as their own mother. Then it hit me – why wouldn’t she want to tell me about it? Was she worried that I would stop buying food if I found out?
When my mum got home, I gave her a big hug. I told her she didn’t need to keep it a secret from me. And she told me something about the children. Some of them lived with an old lady in a small house. Others slept on the street. For years, she was helping the poor street children by giving them food. After she told me everything, I was so moved by how selfless she was. She helped others in need. As her son, I was so proud of my mum.
I continued to buy food for my mum after that. But I always added one more bag for her other children.
1. After the first week, the writer noticed that _____.
A. the food was put into a big box B. his mum followed the children
C. the food was eaten up quickly D. his mum stopped buying food

A. My mother and I. B. Children in need.
C. Bags of Love. D. My mother and the neighbor children.
B
Just a couple of hours ago, I was on the plane, ready to fly home from London. The flight had been put off by a few hours so it felt good to be so close to take-off. I had my iPod in place and a new book to read. Then, over the loudspeaker came the pilot(飞行员)’s voice: “We’re sorry to tell you we must cancel this flight because there’s still something wrong with the plane.”
The passengers’ reactions(反应)that announcement led to were interesting. One man close to me began to argue with an air hostess. A couple in another row complained loudly. A businessman in a black suit even kicked the seat in front of him. Yet some passengers acted differently. An elderly gentleman smiled as he helped others take their bags down from the shelf. A teenager, rather than trying to rush off the plane like most of the other passengers, stopped to help a woman with a disability. The lady sitting next to me laughed and said: “Hey, it’s not the end of the world,” before she made a call to her kids and shared her adventure with them.
No life is perfect; mine certainly isn’t. We all must face challenges, both large and small. You and I have the power to choose to rise above the external circumstances(外部环境). We always have the choice to be strong and kind when we are in trouble.
My seatmate was right — things didn’t get that terrible. Anyway, I am safe. I have my health. I have two wonderful children. I have work I love and so much to be grateful for. Sure I now have to wait a few hours to catch the next flight home.
5. What caused the passengers’ different reactions?
A. The loudspeaker. B. The airhostess.
C. The plane’s problem. D. The pilot’s announcement.
6. Who turned his anger on the seat?
A. A teenager helping the disabled. B. An old man taking bags down.
C. A man in a black suit. D. A man close to the writer.
7. What did the woman sitting next to the writer do?
A. She complained loudly. B. She made a phone call to her family.
C. She helped others carry their bags. D. She told moving stories to her children.
8. What can we learn from the story?
A. Our life is full of ups and downs. B. It is natural to be scared and angry in trouble.
C. We should help each other. D. Keep calm and hopeful when life is hard.

Most students like junk food because it is tasty. Whether it should be allowed in schools or not is still a question. Just as every coin has two sides, junk food in schools has its advantages and disadvantages.
Most junk is quite cheap, tasty and easy to take .If a child forgets to carry a lunch bag, he or she will go hungry for most of the day. Here ,junk food helps him or her to have something to eat. Moreover, it’s possible for students to save a lot of time.
Sometimes having junk food instead of a part of one’s main diet is considered to be OK. It doesn’t have a big influence on a person’s health if someone only eats it from time to time.
Compared with some junk food with high oil and salt, food like potato chips or juice can be made in school dining halls. So students don’t have to choose unhealthy food from outside.
However,too much oil,salt and sugar in junk food are harmful to human bodies. Some of them can’t be broken down in the body. If someone eats too much junk food, It will lead to obesity（肥胖） and other health problems like heart trouble ,high blood pressure and so on .
Usually, children have snacks between classes. There is a sudden increase of sugar, so they get a lot of energy and become too active. But when classes begin ,the effects （作用）of the snacks begin to reduce, they become slow. This causes low energy levels and lack of concentration（注意力）. It has a bad influence on a student’s performance during classes.
In all, it’s important that parents and schools should provide their kids with healthy and balanced food and make them know the disadvantages of junk food .Then they will make healthier choices for themselves
Topic Junk food in_____1_______
____2___ Junk food is popular among students ,but like everything else ,it has both advantages and disadvantages.

七、缺词填空：
One night in November, Itzhak Perlman gave a concert in a theatre. If you have ever been to a Perlman concert, you know that becoming a violinist is not e___1___?for him. He had to walk?with the help of two walking sticks as a result of the disease he caught as a c___2___.
