Here let’s know some of them. ‎ Faye Wong and her husband Li Yapeng started the Yan Ran Angel Foundation(基金会) for harelipped(兔唇的) children three years ago. It was named after their daughter. Its purpose is to help children under 14 to cure their harelips. The couple donated one million yuan (about $ 133,000) to start the organization.‎ Cong Fei was born in a poor family. He became a successful singer in Shenzhen. He helped 178 poor students and disabled people for more than 10 years. Before he died of an illness at the age of ‎37 in 2006, he decided to donate his cornea(角膜) to people with eye diseases. He helped six people see the world.‎ Guan Mucun has donated money to Project Hope to help poor students finish primary education. Thirty of these poor students have already finished high school with her support. Guan has also helped with charity work for environment protection, HIV/AIDS prevention, blood donation and “Mother Water”. ‎ Guan had an unlucky childhood: her mother died when she was only 10. years old. With the help of the government and her neighbours, she grew up and was successful as a famous singer.‎ Action star Jackie Chan is a wholehearted supporter of charities including UNICEF, Operation Smile and his own Jackie Chan Charitable Foundation. In 2007, he used much of his spare time to visit the farthest parts of China on his Dragon’s Heart Charity Missions. The Dragon’s Heart Foundation aims to meet the needs of poor children and the elderly in the hardest-to-reach areas of the country. Chan has made several trips to these poor villages, bringing warm clothing, wheelchairs and school supplies, and helping to build schools.‎ ‎21. Who can get help from the Yan Ran Angel Foundation?‎ A. Harelipped children under 14. B. All disabled children. ‎ C. All disabled children under 14. D. All harelipped children. ‎ ‎22. What can we learn from the passage? ‎ A. Faye Wong and Li Yapeng don’t like their daughter. ‎ B. More than 7 people’s eyes were cured thanks to Cong Fei’s Cornea. ‎ C. Guan Mucun was once helped by the government and her neighbours.‎ D. Jackie Chan didn’t have chance to visit the people he helped. ‎ ‎23. What is the passage mainly about?‎ A. Chinese charity work. ‎ B. Charity work of some Chinese artists. ‎ C. Some famous Chinese artists.‎ D. Organizations started by Chinese artists. ‎ B Spending two or three hours playing outdoors each day can reduce a child’s chance of becoming short-sighted, a research shows. It challenges (挑战) the belief that short- sightedness is caused by computer use, watching TV or reading in weak light.‎ The Australian government researchers believe that sunlight is good for people’s eyes. They compared the vision(视力) and habits of 100 seven-year-old children in Singapore and Australia. In all, 30% of the Singaporean children were short-sighted--this rate(比率) was ten times higher than Australian children.‎ Both groups spent a similar amount of time reading, watching television and playing computer games. However, the Australian children spent an average(平均) of two hours a day outdoors—90 minutes more than the Singaporean children.‎ Professor(教授) Ian Morgan, from the Australian Research Council’s Vision Centre, said, “Humans are naturally long-sighted, but when people begin to go to school and spend little or no time outdoors, the number of short-sighted people gets larger. We’re also seeing more and more short-sighted children in cities all around the world—and the main reason may be that city children spend less time outdoors. “ ‎ Daylight can be hundreds of times brighter than indoor light. But why does playing outside prevent us from becoming short-sighted? Scientists believe that natural light has a special chemical(化学物质) which stops the eyeball from growing out of shape and prevents people becoming short-sighted. ‎ So be outdoors. It doesn’t matter if that time is spent having a picnic or playing sports. ‎ ‎24. How much time did the Singaporean children spend outdoors on average every day in the research? ‎ A. 2 hours. B. 90 minutes. C. 1 hour. D. 30 minutes. ‎ ‎25. What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?‎ A. Why people become short-sighted. ‎ B. Why natural light has a special chemical. ‎ C. Why playing outside is good for one’s eyesight. ‎ D. Why daylight is much brighter than indoor light. ‎ ‎26. Which of the following is true according to the passage? ‎ A. People will all become short-sighted after they begin to go to school. ‎ B. Playing outdoors for 2 or 3 hours every day can help protect your eyesight.‎ C. Children in Australia are more likely to get short-sighted than those in Singapore.‎ D. If you spend two or three hours playing outside each day, you won’t get short- sighted.‎ C In most situations, light helps us see. But nowadays humans are using too much of it so that it is in fact a kind of pollution.‎ When it comes to looking at the night sky, too much light makes it difficult for us to watch some of life’s most wonderful sights: stars, planets and even galaxies(星系).‎ According to scientific research, about 2, 500 stars can be seen by the human eye without using any special equipment(设备). But because of light pollution, you can only see 200 to 300 stars from today’s countryside, and no more than ten stars from a city. In most big cities, people cannot see the sky filled with stars like they did in their childhood.‎ Light pollution affects more than just our view of sky. Research shows that lots of nighttime light can harm wildlife, too.‎ When birds fly to another place over cities, they sometimes get lost by the brightness and fly in circles(圈) until they drop from tiredness. Sea turtles(海龟) need dark beaches for laying eggs, but they can’t find their ideal places because of those bright lights.‎ Too much light at night may even affect human health, but scientists are not sure of that. They are still learning more.‎ In order to prevent things from going worse, governments and some organizations are working to reduce light pollution. Many cities and towns have taken action to reduce the use of lights at night. Lights are used only when and where they are truly needed. They also shine lights down at the ground instead of up into the sky and use lower brightness levels. ‎ Hopefully, in the near future, humans can enjoy the clear and beautiful sky again and all the wildlife will live a peaceful and undisturbed life, too. ‎ ‎27. Why does the writer think that too much light is a kind of pollution?‎ A. Because there are fewer and fewer stars. ‎ B. Because human health has been affected. ‎ C. Because too much light is a waste of energy. ‎ D. Because some of the wildlife can be harmed. ‎ ‎28. Which of the following is NOT mentioned(提到)in this passage?‎ A. The problems that light pollution has caused. ‎ B. The reason why humans use too much light. ‎ C. The ways that light pollution can be reduced. ‎ D. The reason why fewer stars can be seen than before. ‎ ‎29. Which of the following is true according to the passage?‎ A. There are about 2,500 stars in the sky. ‎ B. Humans want to do nothing to reduce light pollution.‎ C. Sea turtles always get lost and die from tiredness. ‎ D. Something has been done to reduce light pollution. ‎ D I was in line waiting to pay. In line there were two people before me. A little boy was buying some rather strange clothes. He chatted with anyone who was interested in the clothes and soon we learnt that he was going to a kindergarten(幼儿园) party. He had done a great job of putting together interesting costumes.‎ I noticed that the little boy was paying mostly with change(零钱). It seemed that he had robbed his pig bank(猪形储蓄罐) to do this shopping. However, the cashier told him he was short after counting all the money. The boy thought for a moment and said, “Please keep the shirt and I will come back with more money. “ ‎ It was clear that he had already used all the money he had and he was $ 8.00 short. The lady in front of me said, “Well, I could pay half of that. “I told the boy that I could pay the other half. We dug into our handbags. However, both of us only had ten-dollar bills(纸币) and we needed the cashier to get the change for us. Other shoppers began digging into their pockets to find some change. It was amazing and touching as all these strangers seemed to react(反应) with the same mind. All wanted to be of help. Within minutes the cashier said, “I have too much money.” The cashier didn’t need our ten-dollar bills. Then the lady in front of me, who had been the first to offer help, said, “Wait! I didn’t even get a chance to give anything!” ‎ I smiled at her and said, “You did your share, because it was your idea and you started all this. “ The little boy smiled and thanked us. We wished him the best and he left. I was left with a good feeling. I had seen the love and goodness of others all around me. The woman in front of me smiled and said, “It sure feels good to give, doesn’t it?” I smiled back and said, “Yes !” ‎ ‎30. What is this passage mainly about?‎ A. Love and goodness. B. Culture and tradition.‎ C. Friendship and honesty. D. Communication and understanding. ‎ ‎3I. Why did the writer and the woman both feel glad? ‎ A. Because the boy had saved some money. ‎ B. Because they both didn’t need to give anything. ‎ C. Because the cashier didn’t look down on the boy.‎ D. Because all the shoppers around were willing to help the boy. ‎ ‎32. What does the underlined word “touching” most probably mean? ‎ A.令人感动的 B.令人难过的 C.令人失望的 D.令人害怕的 ‎ ‎33. What’s the correct order of the following events?‎ a. The cashier got enough money for the boy’s shirt.‎ b. The cashier counted the boy’s money. ‎ c. The shoppers looked for some change in their pockets. ‎ d. The boy went to the line to pay. ‎ A. b, a, e, d B. b, e, a, d C. d, b, e, a D. d, e, a, b ‎ 四、阅读表达(共5小格；每小格1分。满分5分)‎ 阅读下面短文，在表格内的空白处填入合适的答案(每格词数不限)‎ The Internet has changed our habits, including our habit of sending greeting cards. There are many e-card websites that make it so easy to find the right greeting cards. They have greatly changed the way we send greetings to each other. ‎ Our lives have become so busy that we have limited personal time.

The users can choose any card they like, from festival greetings to birthday wishes. In fact, e-cards are perfect for any event. That’s why more and more people like to send e-cards.

This will surely create a good impression(印象)on the person you love. ‎ We have never forgotten the importance of saying sorry to our beloved ones. But sometimes we fail to do so because, we are not brave enough to face those we hurt. Some e- cards on these websites allow us to express our feelings in a more thoughtful way. ‎ Although some people still would rather buy traditional cards in the shops for the persons they love, especially when they want the cards to last a long time, more and more people are choosing to send greetings on the Internet. ‎ Title: Sending E-cards on the Internet Introduction to the topic The way we send greetings to each other (34) because of the e-card websites.‎ Reasons why more and more people are using e-cards Plenty of greeting cards on the websites make it possible for people to (35) with others easily.‎ Users can choose or make their own e-cards, and it doesn’t take (36)_____________time.‎ Users can plan for the occasion and help create a good impression on the persons they love.‎ E-cards can help you to say (37) to those you hurt in a thoughtful way.‎ Conclusion E-cards are becoming more and more (38) .‎ 五、词汇(共10小题；每小题1分。满分10分) ‎ A)根据句子意思，用括号中所给词的正确形式填空，每空填一词。 ‎ ‎39.
