What’ s best to read this year?
Secrets I Know (Random House Children’s Books, ages 3-7)
This tale written by Kallie George and pictured by Paola Zakimi follows a young girl and her little friend as they move from rain to sunshine, from pleasant loneliness to sweet friendship, and finally from adventures on earth to an exploration of the sky above. The colors of Zakimi’s pencil drawings are calming and George’s poetic text tells her story with simple language.
Pandora (Clarion Books, ages 3-7)
The award-winning author Victoria Turnbull tells the story of a little fox Pandora. Pandora lives alone. She makes herself a handsome home, but no one ever comes to visit. Then one day something falls from the sky — a bird with a broken wing. Little by little the bird helps Pandora feel less lonely. Turnbull’s watercolor and colored pencil drawings make this story of friendship and growth an atmospheric delight.
Prince and Pirate (G.P. Putnam’ s Sons Books for Younger Readers, ages 5-8)
A different kind of friendship is described in this book, by Charlotte Gunnufson with pictures byMike Lowery. Prince and Pirate are a pair of mismatched fish put into the same aquarium (水族馆). At first it seems that they’ll never learn to be friends. It is only when both take pity on a frightened dogfish that they learn the benefits of cooperation, and soon all three fish become good friends.
The Giant Jumperee (Dial Books, ages 3-5)
The story was written by the award-winning British author Julia Donaldson. When Rabbit hears a loud, voice bellowing (吼叫) threateningly from inside a cave, he gathers Cat, Bear and Elephant to help him decide what to do. But it’s Mama Frog who fearlessly confronts (面对) the unknown creature. Helen Oxenbury’s soft watercolors create a beautiful countryside and hercharacterizations of the animals are impressive.

My grandson Jason was no where to be seen — normal behavior for a ten-year-old. I sat down on a chair and noticed the ladder (梯子) lying on the ground under the big tree beside the driveway. It didn’t take Sherlock Holmes to figure out Jason was up in that tree and had accidentally kicked the ladder away. He wasn’t about to come down, and he wouldn’t let me know he was trapped. I could put up the ladder and rescue him, but then I recalled an event in my youth that I now, more than 50 years later, suddenly understood.
Raymond Cutting was a white haired gentleman, who entered my life when I was Jason’s age. My parents said I was free to wander around the village except for the abandoned quarry (采石场) at the foot of a local mountain, but it was an interesting place: full of milky green water and rusty machinery hiding in the bushes. One afternoon I went there with some older boys, who later abandoned me when the sun was low. I tried for an hour to find my way, climbing over fallen

trees but got caught in the bushes. Panicked, I cried.
Stopping to catch my breath, I heard someone whistle (吹口哨). “Hello,” said Cutting. “Out for a walk?” I nodded, “I’ve just been out exploring the old quarry, but I’ve got to get home now.” “If you’d wait a minute, I’ll walk back to town with you after I finish this willow whistle.”
So we walked back down the path together, and the willow whistle was mine, sounding loud and clear. It suddenly dawned on me what an unusual act of kindness that was — Mr. Cutting had heard me crying, but he didn’t play the role of a rescuer. Instead, he whistled so that I could find him.
I got up from the chair and drove my truck right under the big tree, where Jason was. I picked up the ladder and carried it around to the back of the house. When I returned, Jason was sitting in my chair.
“Where have you been?” I asked.
“Exploring,” Jason said. “I am a Cub Scout, you know.”
“Yes,” I smiled and said, “I know.”

West Nile isa tropical disease that begins in birds, whichpass iton tomosquitoes that then go on to infect human begins with a bite. Most people who catch West Nile don’t experience any symptoms at all,but, if they do, symptoms typically develop between 3to 14 days after a mosquito bite. About 1 in 150 experiences high fever, shakes and unconsciousness. Some — especially the elderly and those with weak immune systems — die. That is what made the major outbreaks of West Nile in the U.S. in the summer of 2012 so terrifying.
The situation wasparticularly bad in Dallas,Texas, where the west Nile virus killed 10 people andsickened more than 200. The city announced a stage of emergency and began aerial spraying(空中喷洒)ofachemical to killthe mosquitoes, even though localpeople argued that the chemical could be moredangerous than the disease.
Why was the summer of 2012 so welcoming tothe West Nile virus and the mosquitoes that carry it?Blame the weather. An extremely mild winter allowedmore mosquitoes than usual to survive, while theunusually high temperatures in that burning summerfurther increasedtheir number by speeding up theirlife cycle. The economic crisis may havealso played a role: Homeowners who were not able topay their bank debts were forced to give up theirpossessions, sometimes leaving behind swimmingpools that made excellent mosquito breedinggrounds. The severity of tropical diseases is alsomatter of whether governments are able — andwilling — to defend their populations againstinfections. Dallas County was not doing some of the key things to slow the spread of West Nile, such astesting dead birds and setting mosquito traps to test forthe presence of the disease.
8. What do we learn about West Nile?
A. Its symptoms usually appear within two weeks.
第7页 共4页
B. It spreads through air and water in tropicalareas.
C. Over 20% of infected people will suffer severesymptoms.
D. It comes from humans’ touching birds infectedwith the virus.
9. What did Dallas County do to fight off West Nile?
A. They sprayed mosquito killers from the air.
B. They emptied the swimming pools in the country.
C. They encouraged citizens to take antiviral drugs.
D. They asked citizens to stay away from deadbirds.
10. What’s the main reason for the 2012 West Nileoutbreak?
A. The increasing population. B. The government inaction.
C. The economic crisis. D. The weather.
11. How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed?
A. By using figures. B. By giving examples.
C. By offering analyses. D. By making comparisons.
D
Fungi(菌类) are a group of organisms that have no leaves or flowers. In fact, fungi do not even share the green color that most other plants display. Scientists say that there are over 1.5 million different species of fungi in the world. One interesting thing is that they often interact with other organisms in order to survive. These relationships are at times beneficial to both organisms. Other times, the fungus benefits without causing harm to the other organism.
At first, many gardeners would be concerned to know that their plants were colonized (聚居) by a fungus. This is because some fungi can cause plants to die. In fact, the Irish Potato Famine was caused by a fungus that killed entire crops of potatoes. However, many plants actually depend on certain types of fungi to stay fit. The reason for this has to do with how fungi gain food. Unlike green plants, fungi cannot make their own food. They must absorb minerals from the soil, and when they do this, they draw the nutrients closer to the roots of the plant, so the plant is able to use them as well. The fungus also benefits from this relationship. Using the minerals from the soil, as well as sunlight, the plant is able to produce sugar and other nutrients: Then the fungus absorbs the nutrients from plant roots and uses them to survive.
Still, for some fungus species, contact with other organisms is essential. And though the fungi do not provide any benefits for the other organism, they do not harm it either. One example of this is a species called pilobolus. This fungus relies on other animals to help it reproduce. The pilobolus grows in animal waste. When it becomes mature (成熟的), it shoots its spores (孢子) away from the waste pile. The spores land in the grass where there are cows. The spores are eaten by the animal but do not grow while inside the stomach. They travel through the body of the animal until they are passed in another area, where they continue to grow.
12. What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Organisms. B. Scientists. C. Species. D. Fungi.
13. What can we conclude from Paragraph 2?
A. Fungi can make their own food.
B. Fungi can’t survive without plants.
C. Fungi neither benefit nor harm plants.
D. Fungi are sometimes dangerous for crops.
14. Why does the author mention cows in the last paragraph?
A. To show how fungi can be harmful.
B. To prove that fungi can be found anywhere.
C. To explain how a type of fungus reproduces.
D. To give an example of animals that eat fungi.
15. From which is the text probably taken?
A. A biology textbook. B. An animal magazine.
C. A research paper. D. A finance report.

The modern competitive sport of weightlifting originated in 19th-century Europe and was
included in the first modern Olympic Games in 1896. 16 At that time, simple competitions were held to see who could lift the heaviest weight.
The first worldwide weightlifting championship were held in London in 1891. At that time, there were no female competitors. Today, the World Weightlifting Championships, organized by the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF), are held every year. 17
Weightlifting as an Olympic event got off to an unsmooth start. It was not held as a separate event in the first games held in 1896, but as a field event. 18 The sport returned to the Olympics again in 1904, this time as part of the athletics program. Not until 1920 did weightlifting make its real Olympic comeback. The 1920 Olympic Games, held in Antwerp, Belgium, marked weightlifting’s debut (首次露面) as a separate event. 19 Previously, weightlifters in the Olympics were all required to compete against each other, regardless of their size. One-hand lifting was dropped from the sport in 1928. Various weightlifting exercises were added and later removed over many years until 1972. 20 The 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney saw the introduction of the women’ s competition, although the IWF has held the World Weightlifting Championships for women since 1987.
A. The 1940 and 1944 Games were canceled.
B.It is a sport in which barbells are lifted competitively.
C. The 1900 Games had no weightlifting presence at all.
D. The championships include 15 separate weight types for both men and women.
E. The 1972 Olympic Games finally presented the weightlifting program in its present form.
F. The sport, however, dates back to ancient civilizations including China, Egypt and Greece.
G. The Antwerp Games also introduced one-hand lifting and weight divisions to the new event.

the way, set out to our destination, which is located in the suburb of the city. On arrival, we saw a large field with a large number of trees and bushes, birds singing in the sky, butterflies flying everywhere, which are not only beautiful but also inspiring. Immediately, we started to work, picking apples, peaches and strawberries. Two hours later, with all our baskets full, we finished our job, feeling a great sense accomplishment. Exhausted as we were, we felt our time and effort worthwhile, for we had enjoyed a closer relationship with the nature.
What a memorable day it was!
