A
Many people were asking me the same question-How did a 22-year-old woman row(划)19-foot boat for 70 days? Well, when I was on the sea alone, the biggest difficulty was the feeling of being lonely.
I started on January 3, 2010. More than half the people who try sailing alone often give up in the first two weeks, so I decided to finish one-fourth of the sailing first, which took about 20 days.
Day 20th, January 22 came! I said to myself that I should be happy. But I was feeling so bad. It seemed to be the hardest day for me. I didn't see land for over two weeks Every day I did the same-rowing, eating, sleeping, watching the sky and the ocean. . .
Suddenly I saw something breaking through the water near my boat. They were dolphins they circled my boat and were close enough for me to touch. So I did! Suddenly l felt so moved, they came to say "Hello", just when I needed it most. I was no longer lonely, believing that I would succeed.
And I made it! All, 2, 817 miles I got to the coast on March 14, after 70 days and five hours at sea. So the secret of my success is the moment with those dolphins.
( )21. How many pants did the woman divide her sailing into?
A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
( )22. Which part is most difficult for those people who try sailing alone? _______.
A. The first day. B. The last day.
C. The first two weeks. D. The middle of the trip.
( )23. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Woman, at good as man on the tea B. An interesting task on the tea
C. Protecting wild animals D. Dolphins, the secret of my success .
B
A well-known poem by Tang dynasty poet Du Mu tells of a sad scene in early April: "Rains fall heavily as Qingming comes, and passersby with lowered spirits go."
This scene takes place on Tomb Sweeping Day, also known as Qingming Festival. Tomb Sweeping Day is a traditional Chinese festival. It began in the Zhou dynasty, over 2,500 years ago. Chinese people celebrate it to remember and honor their ancestors(祖先). This year, it falls on April 4. Tomb Sweeping Day became a public holiday in the Chinese mainland in 2008. People have one day off for that day.
On this day, families bring flowers, food and wine to the grave sites（墓地） of their ancestors. They place cakes, fruits in front of the graves and some may burn joss paper, as money for the dead. After that, they sweep the tombs and cherish（怀念） the memories of their dead family members.
Tomb Sweeping Day gives us a chance to show respect to our ancestors and family members who have passed away and show that we miss them. This tradition shows that family values are an important part of Chinese culture.
Tomb Sweeping Day is also the beginning of the time for gardening and outdoor activities in China. Families often get together for outings or to fly kites at this time.
( )24. The Chinese meaning of the underlined word "passersby" is _______.
A.行人 B.陌生人 C.故人 D.古代人
( )25. Tomb Swepping Day is celebrated for people to_______.
A. go out to fly kites B. have a public holiday
C. get together with their families D. remember and honor their ancestors
( )26. What can people take to the grave sites according to the passage？
A. Flowers, food, fruits and umbrellas. B. Flowers, food, wine and joss paper.
C. Food, fruits, joss paper and kites. D. Flowers, wine and pets.
( )27. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. We have on day off for Tomb Sweeping Day.
B. Tomb Sweeping Day began in the Zhou dynasty.
C. People in the world celebrate Tomb Sweeping Day.
D. Family values play an important role in Chinese culture.

七、阅读表达（第53题1分，第54题2分，第55题3分，共6分）
It is easy for many people to catch a cold in the springtime or fall．It makes us wonder if scientists(科学家)can send a man to the moon，why can’t they find a cure for the common cold? The answer is easy．There are actually different cold viruses(病毒)out there．You never know which one you will get，so there isn’t a cure for each one．
When a virus attacks(攻击)your body，your body works hard to get rid of(除去)it．Blood rushes to your nose and causes a block(阻塞)in it．You feel terrible because you can’t breathe(呼吸)well，but your body is actually eating the virus．Your temperature goes up and you get a fever，but the heat of your body is killing the virus．You also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting into your cells(细胞)．You may feel very uncomfortable，but actually your wonderful body is doing everything it can to kill the cold．
Different people do different things to deal with colds．In the United States and some other countries，for example，people might have chicken soup to help them get over the cold．Some people take hot baths and drink warm water．0ther people take medicine to stop different symptoms(症状)of colds．
There is one interesting thing to note--some scientists say taking medicine when you have a cold is actually bad for you．The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn’t have a way to fight it and kill it．Bodies can do an amazing iob on their own．There is a joke，however，on taking medicine when you have a cold．It goes like this：
It takes about one week to get over a cold if you don’t take medicine，but it takes only seven days to get over a cold if you take medicine．
53.Why do you have difficulty breathing when you catch a cold?
___________________________________________________________
54.How long does it usually take to cure the common cold?
___________________________________________________________
55.Do you take medicine after catching a cold? Why or why not?
