Passage 2
There are several things you can do to make homework less work.
First, be sure you understand the homework. Write it down in your notebook or day planner if
you need to, and don’t be afraid to ask questions about what’s expected. It’s much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later that night! If you want, your can also ask how long the particular homework should take to complete so you can budget your time.
Second, use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework. Many schools have study halls that are specifically designed to allow students to study or do homework. It’s tempting(有吸引力的) to hang out with friends during study periods or unstructured(有组织的) time, but the more work you can do in school, the less you’ll have to do that night.
Third, pace(调整节奏) yourself. If you don’t finish your homework at school, think about how much you have left and what else is going on that day, and them budget your time. Most high school students have between one and three hours of homework a night. If it’s a heavy homework day and it seems you’ve got homework in every subject, you’ll need to devote more time to homework. It’s a good idea to come up with some kind of homework schedule, especially if you are involved in sports or activities or have an after-school job.
26. What does the underlined word “budget” mean in Chinese?
A. 节省 B. 预算 C. 奉献 D. 浪费
27. _______ about the homework is easier than to remember later that night!
A. To ask the teacher during or after class
B. To ask the classmates during or after class
C. To ask your parents at home
D. To ask your friends on the way home
28. Most high school students often spend _______ hours in finishing homework a night.
A. between 1 and 2 B. between 1 and 3 C. between 2 and 4 D. between 3 and 5
29. What should you do if you want to go shopping after school but you have some homework?
A. Leave the homework undone B. Ask somebody to help you do it
C. Finish it at school D. Tell your teacher the real reason
30. What does the passage tell us?
A. Homework is important to students B. Why we should finish homework on time C. Pace yourself at school D. Ways to make homework less work
Passage 3
British people are famous for drinking tea. But brother and sister, Sarah and Bobby Green, became young millionaires when they opened a chain of American-style coffee shops in the UK.
Having the idea: It started when Sarah took a weekend trip to New York to visit her brother Bobby. One evening, in a Thai restaurant, Sarah told Bobby how much she wished she could buy American-style coffee in London. Bobby suggested they started their own coffee shop. Sarah fell in love with the idea.
Doing the Research: Back in London, she spent a whole day on the London subway, getting off the train at different stations to taste the coffee. “It was terrible, and I knew there was a gap (空缺) in the market.” In 1995, they opened their first Coffee Republic shop in central London.
Making it work: The first year was very difficult. British people were not used to the names of American coffees, like latte and macchiato. But being successful was their dream and they were not going to give up. Today, there are over 100 Coffee Republic shops all over the country and the company has £30 million a year.
Advice for others: Sarah has now written a best-selling book about their experience, called Anyone Can Do It ! She hopes it will help other young people to start their own businesses. She says, “If you think you have the energy, then get out and follow your dream.”
31. What kind of company do they run?
A. A fast-food restaurant. B. A tea shop. C. A coffee shop. D. A big hotel.
32. Where are their Coffee Republic shops?
A. All over the UK. B. All over the US. C. In central London. D. In New York.
33. Which of the following information is mentioned(提到) in the passage?

B. British people never drank coffee before 1995.
C. Sarah’s best-selling book is about how to make coffee.
D. Sarah found a business chance while doing the research.
34. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Sarah’s life story. B. Sarah’s weekend trip.
C. The American-style coffee. D. The success of a family business.
35. Where may this passage come from?
A. In a scientific report. B. In a newspaper.
C. In a sports magazine. D. In a novel.

The policeman continued: “And just before the light I clocked (测速) you doing 50 miles (80km) per hour. 38 ”
His wife leaned forward again and whined (埋怨): “I told him to slow down. But did he listen to me? No! He never listens to me.”
39 “Shut up! I told you to SHUT UP!”
The policeman looked at the woman and asked: “Does he always talk to you this way?”
To which the woman replied: “Only when he has been drinking.”
A. He just kept right on going.

In the summer, paper cups for drinks are everywhere. But be careful, 53 some paper cups might be bad for your health.
A new set of national standards(标准) for paper cups will come out on June 1. “Most cups we use now would not meet them,” said Dong Jinshi, executive vice-president of the International Food Packaging Association in Beijing.
According to the new standard, recycled materials are not allowed anymore. Also, cups must not be too soft. Cups that are unusually white may be dangerous because 54 may contain some chemicals (化学品) that are bad for our health.
The standards 55 set rules for patterns (图案) on paper cups. Colored patterns cannot be within 1.5cm of the 56 or 1cm of the bottom.
“It’s very 57 for people to take the ink (油墨) into their bodies while drinking if the pattern is too close to the top,” said Dong. Most of the patterns also contain chemicals that hurt people’s health.

阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
Passage 5
I love to write! Even since I was a little girl, I wrote stories on my notebooks and on little scrips of paper. I told stories to my friends. As a grown-up, I have written over 100 books! That’s a lot! As a teacher, it’s my goal to encourage all of my students to love to write.
Writing is easy if you’re careful enough, I told them. Everyone I meet is a possible character.
Everything I see or I do is a possible scene in a book. Start looking around you. You’ll be amazed at what you discover.
Anyone can be a writer. You just put your pencil on your paper and write what you like to read, step by step.
● Create great characters. If you know your characters well, they’ll write the story for you.
● Interest the reader right at the beginning. You can start your stories with a dialogue or an action. If you can make the reader ask questions, then he has to keep reading to find out the answers.
● Following the steps. The steps for every story is almost the same: Introduce the characters and the conflict(冲突); things get worse; all seem lost; the hero saves the day!
● Balance is the key.
Remember, when writing, it never hurts to add a little humor.

You can probably all ride a bike well. I’m an exception (例外).
I started riding a bike when I was 3 years old. It was a tiny toy bike with four wheels. I loved it very much and rode it every day.
When I was 5, my cousin gave me a pink bike. It was a true bicycle with just two wheels! At the time, my parents were too busy to teach me how to ride it. So I had to learn to ride by myself. I practiced hard on weekends and during vacations, 1 I still didn’t know how to make turns.
One summer vacation, I borrowed an old bike and rode it with my friends on a country road. We sang and practiced our riding 2 . Suddenly, a small boy ran into the road. I was shocked and couldn’t control the bike at all. My bike ran into the boy and he fell. He didn’t get very seriously hurt, but his grandma was too angry to 3 my apology. My cousin appeared five minutes later and saved me from the mess. But the 4 frightened me: I no longer dared to ride a bike.

III. 听下面一段短文,从所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。
Good morning, everyone. Welcome to London, Britain. I’ve got hundreds of things to share with you, but I think listening is perhaps one of the most difficult and depressing of all skills for new international students arriving in Britain for the first time. And of course, it is even harder for anyone who is learning English outside an English speaking country.
Everyone seems to speak quickly and it is hard to get what is said. But there’re some chances to make listening easier. One, when there is only one speaker, such as the News, a lecture; two, when there’s a reading text; three, when you are interested in the topic; four, when you know some of the words that will be used.
After hearing this, you will also want some suggestions to develop your listening skills:
First, listen to the News every day.
Second, listen to English for learning information.
Last but not least, listen to some fast speech.
Good luck for you. Wish you an enjoyable life here in Britain.
