Peter and Paul had a permission from their parents to camp in a field close to their farm. But, being


adventurous boys, they knew it would be more




1




to camp in the woods that lay beyond the river.


Excitedly, the boys went away with their tent and food.


Carrying their heavy load, the two brothers walked along the riverbank,




2




noticing the distance or the


sun beating down. They were eager to reach their destination before lunchtime. As they entered the cool,


shadowy woods, they began to search for a suitable camping spot. Peter wanted to




3




close to the river


at the edge of the woods, but Paul, who was older, insisted that they camp further away.




4




Peter


followed his brother deeper into the woods. “This really is a wonderful setting!” said Paul in excitement.


They




5




the tent, and settled down to eat the sandwiches they had made, then decided to find their way




6




to the river to catch some fish.


“Are you sure that this is the right way ?” whispered Peter shakily. “I’m sure we passed that hollow tree


just a while ago. ” Paul walked





7




silently. “Look, there it is again. We’re lost, aren’t we?” compl


ained


Peter. Paul had to admit that he didn’t know where they were.





8




, they were a long distance from


where they were supposed to be. They were not even sureof where they had set up their camp. They set in




9




for a few minutes until Peter had a bri


ght idea. “Why don’t we look for clues


(线索)



the way trackers


do in the movies? We weren’t careful about how we walked, so I’m sure we would have left behindsome


broken tree branches and leaves. ”



Carefully, the boys followed the marks that they had left, until finally they found their campsite. Hurriedly,


they packed their belongings and set off




10




the direction of the river.


What would their parents think of their adventure?

We all know that flight tickets (


飞机票


) are usually expensive in peak seasons (


旺季


) like the Christmas


holiday. And it’s hard to buy a ticket in those seasons. However, when the peak seasons are over, the price of


flight tickets becomes much lower. How can you buy a flight ticket successfully at a lower price? A website


called Google Flights can help you.


Google Flights can help you find the best flights according to your needs and plan your trip well. For


example, if you want to go to New York in February, you can input (


输入


) your information into the website.


Then it will show you the exact day in February when the ticket price is the lowest. If you want to travel


with at most 1,000 dollars but don’t know where to go, just tell Google Flights. It w


ill tell you which city is


the most suitable for you and help you make plans for your trip. Google Flights also helps you compare


prices among different airlines. It provides a calendar with flight prices listed every day. What’s more, its


best flights box can tell you which flights are the best combinations (


组合


) of price and speed.


We can say that sometimes this online tool can beat out any travel agent. To use this new tool, you need to


provide your email address. Google Flights will send you emails about price changes and travelling tips. So


if you plan to go out these days, just tell your needs to Google Flights and wait for emails.

The colour systems used by scientists and artists are completely different. An artist will mix blue and


yellow paint to get a shade of green; a scientist will mix green and red light to create yellow. The printed


page in a magazine is yet another system.


Scientists recognize the light primaries(


原色


) are red, green and blue. When mixed, red and green light rays


produce yellow, blue and green produce cyan, red and blue produce magenta. Red, green and blue mix to


create white light. This colour model is used in computer monitors, television sets and theaters.


Most artists recognize red, yellow and blue as the three basic primary colours. These primaries are the pure


colours which cannot be created by mixing any other colours.


In the print industry, cyan (


青色


) , magenta (


紫红色


) , yellow and black are used as the primary colours.


When you mix all the colours, the result is grey.

How many colour systems are mentioned in the passage?


A



Two.





B



Three.





C



Only one.





D



Four.

If a scientist wants to get yellow, he will probably

B



mix blue and red


C



mix red and green





D



mix red, green and blue


3



Which of the following is NOT true?


A



Red, green and blue are used in television sets.


B



Most artists think red, yellow and blue are the pure colours.


C



In the print industry, if you mix all the colours, you will get gray.

Scientists agree with artists on the colour systems.

Last year, I had a chance to visit Shenyang and experienced one shared bike for the first time.


When


I was downloading the Mobike’s app, a man rode one past me. I admired him so much. After


downloading it, I began to look for a Mobike on my way to the hotel.


To my disappointment, the only Mobike in the busy street was broken. Suddenly, one near the bank


caught my attention. I ran to it immediately, but was again disappointed to find that its QR code was


broken. But everything comes to those who wait. Finally, I found my Mobike in a narrow street.


“Crack!” The bike unlocked, and I began to enjoy my riding.


I could feel the air passing me on both


sides. Although it was autumn, the wind was warm and gentle.


But at the same time, I saw so many shared bikes were broken. Some lost their seats, and others had


broken locks. Shared bikes provide a lot of convenienc


e, so it’s important for us to take good care of them


and keep the in good condition. I hope everyone can work together to create a civilized and harmonious


society.

Where would the writer go when a man rode past him?


A



To the bank


B



To the busy street


C



To the hotel


D

What happened to the Mobike near the bank?

3



What did the writer aim to tell us?


A



Many shared bikes were broken in Shenyang.


B



He found his Mobike in a narrow street at last.


C



We should be civilized and protect the shared bikes. D



It was his first time to ride a shared bike in


Shenyang.

The stereotype(


模式化的思想


) is that Americans are lazy, but studies show that people in the


USA get less vacation time than people in other parts of the world. A typical American worker gets two or


three weeks off out of a whole year for vacation, but most US workers cannot. They usually have to be


spread out throughout the year. Even when US workers are on vacation. they are often expected to be in


communication with their bosses by email and mobile phone. Most US businesses do not encourage their


employees(


雇员


) to take all the vacation days they are allowed to. In fact. most US companies discourage it.


Other countries, especially countries in Europe, have much more vacation time. In Germany many


people have six weeks of paid vacation. Maybe this is why Europeans and other travellers take a vacation in

far-off foreign places. Most American families like to stay closer to their homes, hardly leaving the country.


Most companies in countries outside the USA have to give paid time off to their employees. However, in


the USA there is no law requiring employers to give workers paid vacation. In fact the USA is the only


developed country that doesn't promise to give yearly time off to workers. There have been efforts to pass


laws giving US workers one week of paid vacation, but so far those efforts have not been successful.


Even when US workers do have time off, many are afraid to take it because they worry they may lose


their jobs. Other workers worry that if they go on vacation, they will have a mountain of work when they


return.

My new way(s) to learn Chinese


Chinese is our mother tongue, but when I started middle school, my Chinese was very poor. At that time,


when I was learning Chinese, I just memorized the knowledge from textbooks. Later my Chinese teacher


encouraged me and gave me some advice. Then I often took part in some activities about Chinese and had a


good time. I not only listened more carefully in class but also read a lot of books in my spare time. Besides, I


often wrote articles and shared them with my teachers and classmates.


The change of learning methods made me more interested in Chinese and my grades improved. I am very


satisfied with my progress and thank my Chinese teachers and students.

Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don’t give friendship back. That is why some


friendships don’t last very long. To have a friend, you must learn to treat your friend the wa


y you want


your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous;


be understanding.


Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you don’t tell the


truth, peopl


e usually find out. If a friend finds out that you haven’t been honest, you may lose your friend’s


trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.


Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grow. You don’t have to gi


ve your lunch money


or your clothes, or enjoyments, like your hobbies and your interests. Naturally you will want to share your


ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you.


By sharing them, you help your friend know you better.


Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school.


Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the


problem


. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend’s


place so you can understand the problem better.


No two friendships are ever exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan


to keep your friendships, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.

A

A

C

There is a saying that 10% of the fishers out there catch 90% of the fish. One of the reasons for this


is that many of us out there just simply do not know what to look for when we go fishing.


Finding a place for fishing is the most important of all. All beaches are different. Some are just flat


shallow sandy bottoms and in most cases they have very little to offer the fisherman. Others may look as


though they are flat and lifeless but have a drop off just off the shore (a gutter) and this is a good attractant


for fish. If you don’t know whether you are in a good fishing place, you can check your surroundings. For


example, if you see other people catching fish or have caught some, then it might be a good place to fish.


However, remember patience is very important while fishing. Being quiet is nearly as important as


being patient. Noise can scare fish away or make them stop eating the bait(


鱼饵


). Conversation is OK, but


jumping or running is not.


Fish may hit the bait, so it’s difficult for you to judge if they eat it. If you see the bobber(


浮标


) go


under the water, it usually means the fish has taken the bait in its mouth. Then it is time for you to pull your


pole out of water quickly.


1



What does the underlined saying in Paragraph 1 mean?


A



Most fishers can’t catch many fish.



B



Most beaches are not good for fishing.


C



A lot of people love fishing very much.


D



A lot of people are good at fishing.


2



What is the most important thing when fishing?


A



Finding a good place.





B



Being quiet.


C



Being patient.





D



Being quick.

Which of the following is NOT allowed while fishing?

When should we pull pole out of water quickly?


A

D



When there are many fish around the bobber.

“Who needs a shopping center if you have Taobao?” says Wang Lin, a young writer in Shanghai.



Taobao, China’s largest online shopping site(


网站


), has become an important part of Wang Lin’s life

spends lots of money on Taobao.


Many Chinese Internet users like Wang Lin have got the fun of online shopping. Most online shoppers are

) are


the most popular online.


It was reported that more than 1,260 billion yuan was spent on online shopping in 2012, and about 80%


through Taobao.


Taobao means “looking for good things” in Chinese. People can find almost everything they need on Taobao,


from clothes to books,


from candies to DVD, from flowers to cellphones. You may wonder if it’s safe to shop


on the Internet. However, Wang Lin said, “It’s very safe and easy. Unless you receive the things from the


sellers and are satisfied with them, the shop owner will not get the money. You can also get your money


back if you want to return the things.”

When Leonardo DiCaprio stepped onto the stage to accept the Academy Award for Best Actor on


February 28, he received a rare standing ovation(


鼓掌欢呼


).


Af


ter five acting nominations and 22 years of disappointed hopes since his first nomination(for What’s


Eating Gilbert Grape in 1993), the 41-year-old actor finally won his first Oscar for his effort in the film The


Revenant, which hit Chinese cinemas on March 18.


DiCaprio’s career took off when he played the romantic lead in Titanic(1997). However, the film also


gave him the name “pretty boy”. People pay more attention to his face than his acting.



DiCaprio has been known as one of the pickiest actors in Hollywood. Instead of winning hearts in


romantic films, he chose to work with more challenging productions.


For the role of Hugh Glass, an 1820s fur trapper in The Revenant, DiCaprio wore 47 different


prosthetics(


特效假体


), slept in dead animals, and ate a bison liver. For over half the film, he crawled(



) on


the ground. An article in Life Week wrote, “Compared with DiCaprio’s terrible experience in The Revenant,


Robinson Crusoe’s seems as easy and comfortable as a vacation.”



His effort was accepted by the Academy.


After he has finally earned the US’ top acting award,


DiCaprio is now working harder, turning to different challenges.

How many acting nominations did Leonardo DiCaprio win?


A



Two.





B



Three.





C



Four.





D



Five.


2



In which film did Leonardo DiCaprio win the Oscar for Best Actor?


A



Titanic.





B



Robinson Crusoe.


C



The Revenant.





D



What’s Eating Gilbert Grape.

What can we learn from the passage?


A



The film was first shown in China on February 28, 2016.


B



Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the pickiest actors in Hollywood.


C



Leonardo DiCaprio wants to be a supermodel in the near future.

Robinson’s experience is more terrible than DiCaprio’s in The Revenant

After living and teaching in China for 10 months, my wife and I returned to California to visit our children


and friends. Many of them asked what we liked most about China. The friendly people, the wonderful food,


and the beautiful sights were at the top of our list. Then one night, after yet another restaurant dinner with


friends, I realized that there was one other thing that I really liked about China: No tipping.


Tipping is a subject that has long interested me.





In America, the three kinds of services that require tipping are


waiters/waitresses, taxidrivers, and barbers. The standard tip is now between 15 and 20 per cent of the bill,


depending on the quality of service. Why these three particular services deserve this special treatment is a


mystery to me. Why am I supposed to tip a waiter for bring me food when I don’t need to tip the flight


attendant on an airplane for doing the same thing? Why do I need to tip a taxi drive, but not the bus driver?


Why am I expected to tip the barber for cutting my hair but not the dentist for fixing my teeth? I have been


a teacher for 39 years. No one has ever tipped me after a particularly successful class or lecture.




The whole concept of tipping doesn't make any sense. I have heard that there are some expensive


restaurants in major cities in the US where the restaurant does not give the waiters any salary at all due to


the large amounts of the tips.





The tipping problem in many European countries is solved by adding a 15 per cent to the bill. I prefer


the Chinese solution: No tipping at all.


When I was visiting the US this summer, I went out to dinner several times with friends. Having spent


10 month in China not even thinking about tipping, I found it irritating to have to spend extra money on


the meal -- especially when the amount of the tip would every often buy a meal in China. While I


understand why China, as a developing nation, has



gradually accepted many Western customary


practices, I hope the Chinese are wise enough to never start the unnecessary practice of



tipping.

What made the writer realize that he liked no tipping most about China ?


A



Talking with his friends .





B



Returning to California.


C



Giving a large amount of tips.

Having dinner in a restaurant.

If the bill is

Which of the sentences is true?


A



All kinds of services need tipping in the US .





B



The writer hoped China would never start tipping .


C



The writers whole family lived in China for 10 months.





D



China has never accepted any western


customary practices

Please stop tipping.

harvest time comes, locusts change into the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests whose colors


are different form plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and


appear only at night.


If you study the animals’ life, you’ll find the main use of colors is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and


other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters because their colors are


much like the trees.


Colors are useful not only on the land, but also in the sea. A kind of fish in the sea can give out a kind of


black liquid (


液体


) when the fish face danger. The liquid spreads over quickly, so they cannot be found by


their enemies and can quickly swim away. That is why they live safely though they are not strong at all.

We should take part in the school trip.


In the English class, we had a discussion on whether Grade Nine students should take part in the school trip.


In my opinion, We should take part in the school trip. Firstly, given short breaks from schoolwork, we


could relax ourselves. Long-time study will only make us tired and stressed. Secondly, it is also a good


chance for us to learn how to take care of ourselves. Thirdly, we could be more connected to both our


teachers and our classmates. We may understand each other better through this trip. Finally, the last school


trip for us could be our everlasting memory. In a word, we should go and have fun!

Tea is an important part of Chinese tradition. Tea has very close relationship to Chinese


culture.


It is said that Chinese tea was discovered by King Shen Nong. People say that he lived 5



000 years


ago. One summer day, while he was visiting a faraway part of his country, he felt very thirsty. The


servants began to make water hot enough to turn into gas for him to drink. Dried leaves from a near


plant fell into the water. The king drank some, and found it could make him feel less tired. Also as a


scientist, Shen Nong was interested in the new drink. And so, tea was created in 2737 BC




Drinking tea has many advantages. It makes people feel less tired, clears heat inside the human


body and helps people lose weight. As you add a cup of tea to your daily life, please check the following


helpful advice.


?Drink it hot. Tea oxidizes(


氧化


) quickly, so it is suggested that you drink it hot.


?Do not drink too much strong tea. It will probably be harmful to your stomach and make you feel


sick if you make the tea too strong.


?The best time to drink tea is between meals. It may not make you have a strong wish to eat when


your stomach is empty, or cause stomachache when your stomach is full.


?Do not drink with medicine. It may change the medical result. You can drink tea two hours after


you take medicine.


?Green tea is the best choice for office ? Because green tea helps stop the bad res


ult


of the computer.

The safety around us


Safety is very important for us students. Accidents often happen around us. So we must pay much


attention to safety.


At home, we should be careful with fire and electricity, Remember to turn off the power supply and


gas holders before leaving home. It will be very dangerous if you leave the gas on! On the road, we should


always obey the traffic rules. We mustn’t listen to music but pay full attention to the condition of roads.


Besides, we’d better not ride side by side.



At school,we shouldn’t push others on the stairs when going up and down. If ,unfortunately, there is


an


accident, call 120 as soon as possible. Thus, it is necessary for us to do some basic medical training for


unexpected needs. In short, safety must come first !


If we can do all these well, we’ll enjoy our life better.

People have known since ancient times that aspirin


(阿司匹林)



reduces pain and lowers high body


temperature. But that is not all the drug can do. In recent years, it has been used in other ways, too. Small


amounts may help prevent a stroke or heart attack. One recent study showed that some people who took


two aspirin pills a day had lower rates of colorectal cancer. And, some researchers say aspirin may help


patients with colon cancer live longer. So, how did aspirin become so important? The story begins with a


willow


(柳树)





2, 000 years ago, the Greek doctor Hippocrates advised his patients to chew on the bark and leaves of the


willow. The tree contains a chemical called salicin. In the 1800s, researchers discovered how to make


salicylic acid from the chemical. In 1897, a chemist named Felix Hoffmann at Friedrich Bayer and


Company in Germany created acetyl salicylic acid. Later, it became the active substance in a medicine that


Bayer called aspirin. The


produces salicin. And the



In 1982, a British scientist shared the Nobel Prize in Medicine in part for discovering how aspirin works.


Sir John Vane found that aspirin prevents the body from making the natural substances called


prostaglandins. Prostaglandins have several effects on the body. Some cause pain and swelling



Prostaglandins also make the heart, kidneys(



) and blood vessels work well. So there is a problem.


(肿)



Aspirin works against all prostaglandins, good and bad. It can also harm the inside of the stomach, and


sometimes it can cause bleeding.



But a British study released in 2009 suggested that taking another drug with a small amount of aspirin


may help reduce the risk of bleeding. If this proves true, it would help thousands of people who are seeking


to prevent life-threatening conditions.

The painter Craigie Aitchison was born in Scotland. He came to London intending(


打算


)to study law,


but went to art school instead. There he found the traditional drawing classes diffcult, but still kept on


painting.


In his late twenties he was given money by the Italian government to study art and liked early Italian artists,


which shows in some of his work. He loved the greens and browns of the Italian fields and the clear light


there, and wanted to put this light into his paintings.


This led him to paint colours thinly one on top of another from light to dark, but he insists he's never sure


what the results will be. He says,


knowing I'm going to put anything on top.



Unlike some artists, he never does drawings before he starts a painting, as he feels that if he did, he might


get bored and not do the painting afterwards. Instead, Aitchison changes his paintings many times before


they are finished. This explains why his favourite models are people who don't ask to see their pictures


while he's painting them.


Since moving to London years ago, he has not felt part of the Scottish(


苏格兰的


)painting scene. He says he


doesn't want to follow any tradition, but just paints the way he can. However, his work still influences


young British painters.

.


A



describe particular works by Craigie Aitchison

2



What can the reader learn about Aitchison from the passage?


A



He works in a different way from other artists.


B



He often gets bored easily with his paintings.


C



He found the drawing classes easy at art school.


D



He was sure what his painting was like before drawing.


3



Aitchison prefers models who don't







.


A



keep moving around while he's working


B



ask him about his strange method of working


C



worry about how long the work will take


D



feel worried to see the work as it's developing


4



What might a visitor at an exhibition say about Aitchison's work?


A



I love his recent painting of Scotland, which are very similar to a number of other Scottish painters.


B



Y


ou can still see the influence of his trip to Italy in some of these pictures.


C



Y


ou can tell he spent a lot of time drawing the picture before he started painting.


D



I wonder if his law training helps him at all, especially in selling his work.

It was the worst day of my professional life. My publisher shut down, and we had no idea if another


publisher would take


over my novel. In addition, my second novel hadn’t sold as well as the first one. It


seemed that I was watching my career going downwards. It was so terrifying.



However, as I shared my fears with my mother, she said something I would never forget: “I woul


d love you


if you were a garbage man.” She wasn’t looking down upon garbage men. She was just saying that


whatever my job was, she loved me. It was just her honest feeling at that moment, but those simple words


are still the ones I use to fight so many of my fears today.



To this day, when I sit down to write every day, I say those words to myself, “I’d love you if you were a


garbage man.” I can still feel the selflessness of my mother’s love.



A few years ago, my mother passed away because of breast cancer. It was she who set me on the path of


writing a series of children’s books to give strength to my own children. The first two are I’m Amelia


Earhart and I’m Abraham Lincoln. In six months, we’ll publish I’m Rosa Parks. For me, this isn’t just a


book serie


s. It’s my dream for my own daughter, for my sons, and for all of us who need to see the power


and potential (


潜力


) in each of us.



This series was born also because I was tired of my daughter thinking that reality TV stars were heroes. I


tell my kids all th


e time: That’s fame (


名气


). Fame is different from being a hero. I wanted my kids to see


real heroes who are no different than themselves. For this reason, each book tells the story of the hero when


he/she was a kid. We see them as children. So it’s not just


Amelia Earhart and Abraham Lincoln being
