I crouched (蹲) low there and immersed (沉浸于) myself in the false hope of finding a treasure (寶物) larger than the small 16 on the shore. A man jogged along the waves 17 my direction. When he came near me, he slowed to a walk. I didnt 18 him until he was almost standing over me. Too young to be 19 of strangers, I got on my feet and looked at him. It was then that I saw what was in his 20 , a beautiful bright cream-colored shell, the kind of thing that I was looking for. He smiled as I stared in 21 , and then, to my shock, he handed it to me. I held it 22 before me like a diamond, not 23 my eyes. “I think you will like it,” he said, and then continued his 24 down the beach. I do not 25 his voice, his clothes or even his face, 26 I do still have the shell, and the greatest lesson Ive ever 27 . Now the shell sits on my bedside table, not as 28 and big as it was, but it is still there, a 29 reminder that there is 30 in the world. That man saved my belief in the kindness of people, and he saved my belief that one can find what means something in life. I see my shell every day, and I know that I can 31 bad days because there are good things in my life. In the end, all that we have is 32 we have done for others. The shell is 33 to me, as important as another man who returned to the plane to 34 me my lost jacket. I know that 35 a difference in someones life, no matter how big or small, is what truly matters, and that it is worth all the treasure in the world. 16. A. fish B. frog C. shell D. diamond 17.

Johnny cut out each quote and signed his name on every one of them. Then he put them in a paper bag he kept beside him at work. When he finished bagging someones food, he put his “Thought for the Day” in the customers bag. It touched me to think that this young man had made his job important by making good memories for all his customers. A month later the store manager called me. He said, “Barbara, you wont believe what happened today. When I was making my rounds, I found Johnnys line was three times longer than anyone elses! So I got more cashiers (收銀員) out here and got more lanes (通道) open, trying to get people to change lanes. But no one would move. They want Johnnys ‘Thought for the Day.” He continued, “I got a lump in the throat when one woman came up to me and said, ‘I used to shop at your store only once a week, but now I come in every time I go by for Johnnys ‘Thought for the Day.” A few months later, the store manager called me again. “Barbara,” he said, “Johnny has changed our store. Now when theres a broken flower, therell be an elderly woman or a little girl to repair it. All of our cashiers now have their own personal signature (簽名). Our customers are talking about us ... in a good way, coming back, and bringing their friends.” 36. Johnny cut out those quotes to ______.

Edouard de Laboulaye, who studied history, admired the United States greatly. Frederic Auguste Bartholdi was a famous artist. De Laboulaye was thinking about 1876, when the country he respected so much would celebrate its 100th birthday. What gift would be good enough for the people of France to give? Right away, Bartholdi thought of a giant statue. Bartholdi kept thinking about a statue for several years. Then, in 1871, he visited the United States and saw the perfect place for a huge statue. It was Bedloes Island in New York. The project — the Statue of Liberty — got started almost immediately, and Bartholdi went home to France to begin work. However, the statue was not finished in time for the 100th birthday. The United States Congress approved (批準(zhǔn)) the use of Bedloes Island on February 22, 1877. During the 100th celebration in 1876, the arm of the statue that would hold the torch was shown in Philadelphia. In 1879 the huge head was put on display in France. For the face of the statue, Bartholdi used his mother as a model. The statue was finally completed in 1884. The work had been difficult enough, but then some really hard work began. The statue had to be taken apart and packed into boxes. It was not until May 1885 that the statue — in pieces — left France for its new home. The statue arrived in June. However, the Americans fell behind on their part of the project. They hadnt raised enough money for building the base of the statue. People wondered if the country really needed or wanted such a gift. Finally, though, the money was raised and the base was completed. The last piece of the statue was put in place on October 28, 1886. 40. Whats the right order of the following events? a. The arm of the statue that would hold the torch was shown in Philadelphia. . The United States Congress approved the use of Bedloes Island. c. The huge head of the statue was put on display in France. d. Bartholdi visited the United States. A. dabc B. dbac C. bacd D. bdac 41. When did the work on the statue begin? A. As soon as Bartholdi thought of it. B. After the United States Congress agreed to it. C. After Bartholdi saw Bedloes Island. D. Not until the US had raised enough money. 42. What happened after the Statue of Liberty was completed? A. It was put together for shipping. B. It was taken apart and packed for shipping. C. It was cleaned up for shipping. D. It was put in place on its base in France. 43. How many years did it take for the Statue of Liberty to be put in place on its base after it was completed? A. 19. B. 15. C. 1. D. 2. C ★ Last July, we asked what you dream of doing as an adult. Thanks for your great responses! We wish we had room to print them all. Here are just a few. Work and Play My dream job is being a construction worker, but only on an amusement park. James Martian, Age 9 Alaska Royal Fashion Designer My dream job is to sew dresses for a queen. I could make whatever design I wanted. Her breakfast dress would be blue and long. Her lunch dress is purple and medium. Her dinner dress is red and short. They would all have sparkles (閃爍的光). I think they would be pretty. I like my dream job. Jenna Suchyta, Age 6 Washington A “PoliceLawFireman” When I grow up, I want to be a policeman or a fireman or a lawyer because they help people. Maybe I will combine all three and become a “PoliceLawFireman”. I can work as a policeman in the morning. I can do law things in the afternoon. I can do fireman things in the evening. But for now, I want to be a boxer to build up my muscles. I will need my strength! Avi Samuels, Age 7 Illinois Playing in the Band My dream job is to become a professional guitarist and vocalist (歌手) for my future five-member rock band. I practice the acoustic (原聲的) guitar, and I have written hundreds of songs! The reason I want to be a guitarist and vocalist is that I am very interested in music itself, so I want to create some of my own. Jake Francis, Age 12 Ohio 44. What do you think is the best title for the passage? A. Your future! B. Your dream job! C. Your idea! D. Your great chance! 45. Who has done something for his / her future? A. James Martian. B. Avi Samuels. C. Jenna Suchyta. D. Jake Francis. 46. Where can you find this passage? A. In a childrens magazine. B. In a fashion magazine. C. In an entertainment newspaper. D. On a website. D ★★ In the far, far future, bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power, and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer (飛碟). Imagine a race between them! There may be telepathy helmets (心靈感應(yīng)帽) that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles away. You just think a thought and your friend knows it! You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on! What about the food of the future? Scientists think that much of it will be artificial — made in factories from such surprising things as coal, limestone, air, and water. The artificial food will be healthful because all the things that you need to live a long and healthy life will be put into it. The future hospitals will probably have “body banks” that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living. People of the future may live to be a lot older than 100 years. What about highways of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be able to drive a car. Nobody will need to steer (駕駛). Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the “driver” wants to go. And it probably will be impossible for cars to smash together. Controls that wont even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes. Driving cars will be as safe as being at home. But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control. Cities may have giant plastic domes (圓頂罩) over them to keep out snow, rain, or storms. When you plan a picnic in a park, you wont have to worry about rain. It will rain only when the “weatherman” thinks it is necessary to fresh the air inside the city. All other days will be fair and warm. The future should be a wonderful time in which to live and the time we are living in now is also a wonderful future to the people who lived 100 years ago. 47. The underlined word “that” (in Paragraph 2) refers to ______. A. telepathy helmet B. the brain C. thought wave D. the secret 48. What can we learn from the passage? A. With telepathy helmets, we can share our thoughts without any word. B. The artificial food made from coal and limestone tastes the most delicious in the future. C. There will be “body banks” instead of hospitals in the future. D. Plastic domes themselves can automatically control the weather. 49. With the future highways, ______. A. small children have to learn to drive B. car accidents still couldnt be avoided C. we can be taken to the destination without steering D. cars will be no longer equipped with brakes 50. The authors attitude towards the future life is ______. A. optimistic B. pessimistic C. satisfied D. doubtful E ★★★ Like cats, geckos (壁虎) always land on their feet. If they happen to fall from a wall or leaf theyve been climbing, a quick move of the tail makes sure that they land feet first. Geckos are truly built for climbing: their special feet have hairy toes fixed to a wall or other vertical (垂直的) surface in just a few thousandths of a second. This lets geckos run 15 body lengths up a vertical surface in just one second. Researchers had thought this was all the equipment geckos needed to keep their feet firmly on the wall. But it turns out thats not the case. A geckos long tail becomes necessary to stay wall-bound when its feet move on a slippery surface, and also if its feet cant keep hold. The researchers noticed that when geckos fell or jumped off a wall, they always landed stomach-side down regardless of whether they began falling upside-down (顛倒地). To find out how they righted themselves during their falling, the researchers conducted an experiment by placing the geckos upside-down on what looks like the underside of a leaf. When they lost their foothold and fell, the geckos moved their tails so that they were at a right angle with their bodies. They then rotated (使旋轉(zhuǎn)) their tails to make their bodies rotate. As soon as they were right-side up, they stopped rotating. On average, it only took the geckos about 100 milliseconds to right themselves so that they would land on their feet. Cats use a different way to land on their feet after a fall. Because their tails dont have the force as a gecko does, cats cant use them to right themselves. Instead they twist (扭曲) their bodies in mid-air. Some engineers are trying to build a robot that copies the geckos climbing and have a tail fixed on the robot for balance. 51. The underlined word “this” (in Paragraph 3) refers to “______”. A. geckos hair B. geckos tail C. geckos body D. geckos toe 52. According to the experiment conducted by the researchers, whats the real use of the geckos tails during their falling? A. Making the geckos rotating. B. Stopping the geckos falling. C. Stopping their falling upside-down. D. Keeping them falling slowly. 53. How do cats avoid their injury during a fall? A. By keeping their balance. B. By landing their bodies upside-down. C. By using tails to right themselves. D. By twisting their bodies. 54. Geckos special skill gives engineers some new idea to ______. A. produce more robots B. invent robots twisted on the ground C. invent robots that can keep balance with a tail D. let robot climb walls 55. This passage is mainly written to tell us ______. A. about the living habits of geckos B. how geckos use their tails to land on their feet C. why geckos drop from trees or walls D. how geckos control their climbing on the wall IV 寫作 第一節(jié)：短文改錯 Dear Editor, Im writing to talk the construction project which is 56. __________________ gone on in our city.

When you come across an unfamiliar word, just read the word to the screen instead of referring to a dictionary, and the word will appear on the screen. On the other hand, they will sound the alarm when you make a spelling mistake, and correct the mistake by spelling the right word on the screen automatically. Surprisingly, they are also your supervisors. When your sitting position is not correct, their red lights will be on. Whats more, they can repair themselves and they are durable, which is quite environmentally friendly.
