A group of swans flew down to a beach where a crow (烏鴉) was jumping around. The crow watched them with disdain (輕蔑).
“You have no flying skills at all!” he said to the swans. “All you can do is to move your wings. Can you turn over in the air? No, I don’t think you can do it! Let’s have a flying competition. I’ll show you what real flying is!”
One of th e swans, a strong young male, took up the challenge. The crow flew up and began to show his skills. He flew in circles, performed other flying tricks, and then came down and looked proudly at the swan.
Now it was the swan’s turn. He flew up, and began flying over the sea. The crow flew after him, making all kinds of comments (評價) about his flying. They flew on and on till they couldn’t see the land and there was nothing but water on all sides. The crow was making fewer and fewer comments. He was now so tired that he found it hard to stay in the air, and had to struggle(掙扎) to keep himself from falling into the water.
The swan pretended (假裝) not to notice, and said, “Why do you keep touching the water, brother? Is that another trick? “
“No,” said the crow. He knew he had lost the competition. “I’m in trouble because of my pride (自大) ! If you don’t help me, I’ll lose my life...”
The swan took pity on him, and took him on his shoulders and flew back to the beach.

Stonehenge, a rock circle, is not only one of Britain’s most famous places but also one of its greatest mysteries(謎). Every year it receives more than 750,000 visitors. People like to go to this place especially in June as they want to see the sun rising on the longest day of the year.
For many years, historians(歷史學(xué)家) believed Stonehenge was a temple where ancient leaders tried to communicate with the gods. However, historian Paul Stoker thinks this can’t be true because Stonehenge was built so many centuries ago. “The leaders arrived in England much later,” he points out.
Another popular idea is that Stonehenge might be a kind of calendar. The large stones were put together in a certain way. On midsummer’s morning, the sun shines directly into the center of the stones. Other people believe the stones have a medical purpose. They think the stones can prevent illness and keep people healthy. “As you walk there, you can feel the energy from your feet move up your body,” said one visitor. No one is sure what Stonehenge was used for, but most agree that the position of the stones must be for a special purpose. Some think it might be a burial(埋葬) place or a place to remember ancestors(祖先). Others think it was built to celebrate a victory over an enemy.
Stonehenge was built slowly over a long period of time. Most historians believe it must be almost 5,000 years old. One of the greatest mysteries is how it was built because the stones are so big and heavy. In 2001, a group of English volunteers tried to build another Stonehenge, but they couldn’t. “We don’t really know who built Stonehenge,” says Paul Stoker. “And perhaps we might never know, but we do know they must have been hard-working — and great planners!”
51. What do most people think was Stonehenge built for?
A. Ancient leaders built it a temple to communicate with the gods.
B. It might be a kind of calendar to tell people the summertime.
C. It can prevent illness and make people feel energetic.
D. It must be for a special purpose because of the position of the stones.
52. What aren’t people interested in about Stonehenge?
A. Where it was built. B. Who built it. C. When it was built. D. Why it was built.
53. What does Paul Stoker mean by “we do know they must have been hard-working — and
great planners”?
A. He has known who built Stonehenge. B. He thinks Stonehenge is really a great mystery.
C. He believes he will find out who built Stonehenge.
D. He encourages volunteers to build another Stonehenge.
(D)
One day, I took an underground to work, I saw something that made me very sad. On the tube( underground in London), a mother kept looking at her phone screen and playing a game with her daughter sitting beside her. The little girl, about 5 years old, was talking to her mother about her day, repeating the next stop's name cheerfully, praising her mother's long nails--trying to catch her mother's attention. Her mother just nodded and answered "Mm, hm" with her eyes glued to the screen, busy passing the levels of the game. I watched the girl give a final try to at least get her mum to look at her, but it was no use. Then the little girl turned silent. It was a shame the mother didn't notice that.
It broke my heart and got me wondering--what kind of game would make the mother forget she has the most beautiful thing in the world, the human she created, the person she loves with all her heart? What it meant when she couldn't look into her daughter's eyes and even stop to listen to the girl?
Some parents are almost like the teenagers, always on their phones with mindless games or going through Facebook. Perhaps parents have many things to deal with, but sometimes they are everything to their kids.
This is not a isolated example. I've seen too many such examples. I might not be a parent myself, and probably still have a long way before becoming one, but I know what I saw isn't right.
The scene used to be seen among teenagers very often when parents complained(抱怨) how their children were crazy about their mobile phones. Look how the situation has changed! The parents have become "technology slaves"(奴隸), that is to say, they can't control themselves while using mobile phones. Now some middle-aged parents hold the best iPhones or Samsung phones, which are probably the only two brands they know. They are playing the simple games with so expensive mobile phones. I'm uncertain whether to laugh or to cry. But my hope is that this storm passes.
54 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The girl failed to catch her mother's attention.
B. The mother felt sorry after her daughter turned silent.
C. The writer has much experience about being a parent.
D. Middle-aged parents know many brands of mobile phones.
55. The underlined word "isolated" in Paragraph 4 means____________ .
A. spreading fast B. happening once C. increasing quickly D. appearing suddenly
56. In the passage, the writer mainly wants to express_____________ .
A. the worries that children are crazy about mobile phones
B. the happiness that parents are now able to use modern technology
C. the sadness that the best smart phones cost parents too much money
D. the hope that parents use new technology like smart phones properly
57. What's the best title of the passage?
A. Middle-aged parents B. A scene on the tube
C. Technology slaves D. Mindless phone games

Have you ever asked your relatives or friends if there is Wi-Fi in their houses? Have you ever searched for Wi-Fi when you are at restaurants or hotels? The answers will probably be "Yes". Most of us want Wi-Fi everywhere as if we can't live without it. But we can only use free Wi-Fi in some public places. We still have to spend some money accessing(連接)the Internet at most time. Here comes a piece of good news.
A rich, powerful organization in the USA called the Media Development Investment Fund (MDIF) has decided to change the age of online computing (計算) completely by giving free Wi-Fi to every person on Earth. They will send up hundreds of satellites into low Earth orbit(軌道)in 2015.
This is because they have made a survey and found that only 60% of the world's population have been able to get information on the Internet. And this is also because many countries are unable to offer people the necessary infrastructure(基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施)to access the web.
We can expect to use free Wi-Fi everywhere in the near future.

People have all-kinds of excuses for not volunteering their time to charities. ‘‘I’m too. busy.” “Gas is too expensive to drive anywhere. I don’t need to go.” “I’ll just send some money instead.”
You won’t hear any such things from Betty Lowe. ‘As Great Britain’s oldest active volunteer, 100-year-old Lowe spends her days between volunteering at a charity WRS shop at a hospital in her native Salford , England, and helping out with Britain’s version of the Girl Guides——a group she’s been a member of for 89 years.
“I had great interest in the guide and I used to go camping and walking. I was a bit of an outdoor girl when I was younger,” Lowe said.
Lowe isn’t quite in shape for camping these days, but she still keeps busy with her volunteer activities. When she’s not volunteering with one of her favorite groups, she’s helping out friends and family, and is known as a best birthday cake cook.
Lowe just turned-4100 years old on Monday,-and more than 100 friends and family members showed up at her birthday party to wish her well. It. sounds like this charitable woman was happy to blow out ‘the candles with a smile. “I think it’s very good to be 100,” she said. “l have enjoyed all my life.”

Remembering your dreams will require some efforts(努力) on your part. But what your dreams can offer and tell you about yourself will be well worth it. Here are some tips to help remember your dreams:
1. Before going to bed, keep a clear mind. Tell yourself that “I will remember my dreams when I wake up”. This is a useful way to remember your dreams.
2. Have a fixed bedtime and wake-up time. Make this your routine(常規(guī)).
3. Avoid drinking and taking medicine before going to bed. These things may prevent you from remembering your dreams.
4. Keep a pencil and a notebook next to your bed so that you can reach them as soon as you wake up. Having a small lamp(燈) by your bedside is also a good idea, so you wake up in the middle of the night and can record your dreams at once.
5. Do not get out of bed at once. When you wake from a dream, lie still in your bed, keeping your eyes closed and moving as little as possible.
6. Write down as many details in your dreams as you can, no matter how seemingly unimportant they may be.

There are some very good things about open education. This way of teaching allows the students to grow as people, and to develop their own interests in many subjects. Open education allows students to be responsible for their own education, as they are responsible for what they do in life. Some students do badly in a traditional classroom. The open classroom may allow them to enjoy learning. Some students will be happier in an open education school. They will not worry about grades or rules.

Because open education is so different from traditional education, these students may have a problem getting used to making so many choices. For many students it is important to have some rules in the classroom. They worry about the rules even when there are no rules. Even a few rules will help this kind of students. The last point about open education is that some traditional teachers do not like it. Many teachers do not believe in open education. Teachers who want to have an open classroom may have many problems at their schools.

Every minute, someone is setting up an Internet company somewhere, in the world. Each one is searching for the one great idea that could make his web company click in a big way. And they are trying all kinds of tricks to attract people towards their websites. While some websites offer sounds, cartoons and amazing photos on screen to make their sites almost a movie-like experience for the viewers, others provide free downloads and competitions.
A company in California, US, has decided to offer online smells to people who visit its website. That is, if a pizza image comes on screen, your nose will catch the smell of bread and cheese! All you need to do is to connect a device(設(shè)備) called “iSmell” with your computer. This smart little device includes some chemicals that can create different kinds of smells.
The company has invented software that changes the chemical composition(成分) of different smells into digital signals(數(shù)字信號). An onscreen image, which is programmed with the proper digital signal, will start the “iSmell” device. The device will use the software to change the digital signal again and let go of the correct smell. This device reads the digital smell code(代碼) from the website and creates the proper smell from its store of chemicals. This smell is then made to blow softly in the direction of the user with the support of a small fan.
In order to let go of the correct smell, the company has created a “Scent Registry”, which includes a digital index(數(shù)字索引) of thousands of smells. The company plans to allow website developers to make the proper smells in digital code to their games and images. The company is also hoping that Hollywood filmmakers will use the smell technology in their movies.
34. Internet companies try their best to search for great ideas to .
A. join in the Internet fever

B. It blows the smell to the user with the help of a fan.
C. It rechanges the signal and lets go of the correct smell.
D. It changes the chemical composition into digital signals.
37. The best title of the passage probably is .
A. Some Useful Devices B. The Internet Fever of People
C. An Unusual Company D. A New World of Smells Online

Starting a book club is easy- all you need is to love reading. Here’s how to get yours off to a flying start.
When you set up your book club, the first thing is to get members for your club. They could be friends, family, or those you know through various activities, but they should all love to read. A small group of seven to ten people is usually an ideal size for a book club. Too many make discussions difficult.
Once you have a group, agree on how often you want to meet- usually clubs meet monthly. Pick a date and stick with it. That way, members can easily plan for it. Send out emails a week before the meeting to give people a written reminder. Set meeting time length.
An hour is a good start. Two hours usually does the trick.
Then, you need a good place. Libraries, parks and restaurants- all make good meeting places. For many clubs, homes are the best place as you don’t have to get dressed up, and noisy public places can make talking hard. If members bring a plate of food or a bottle, it can help start conversation.
Please don’t forget the most important thing- the book! Think about the books your club will enjoy. Fiction? Your club can choose books in different ways. You can take turns to recommend books. Let everyone vote upon what book to read. Anyway, make sure to keep it light and fun.
After all this has been decided, your book club is ready. Now, it is time to hold the first meeting. Enjoy your reading.
How to start a book club
Getting members ●You can include those who share your love for reading.
●___1___ matters. Seven to ten people are enough for discussion.

A woman whose sports car was stolen with her dog in it put up notices all over the area. It was clear that getting back her pet was more important than her car.
“Whoever did this can keep my car. Please let Tom come home,” the notice said.
It is not known whether the thief showed any pity, but almost 30 hours after the 1 p.m. theft Friday, Julie and Tom, a 10-year-old black retriever (獵犬), were reunited (重聚). “He’s hungry. He’s dirty, but he’s very happy to be home,” Julie said.
The car was found in an area full of off-the-road cars and dirt bikes. However, the police couldn’t control Tom, and they had to call Julie to come and get him.
Julie said the thief cared for Tom a little by providing him with some dry dog food. She believed Tom ended up drinking some muddy water in the area.
She said they have been together for nearly 8 years after she took him back from a society shelter in Dallas, Texas.
Before Tom was found, Julie and several friends put up notices all over the city. They also contacted animal shelters, throughout southern New Hampshire and Massachusetts. The notice stated there was a reward (報酬), and also that the dog needed medical treatment. Any caller could remain anonymous. Julie had parked the car outside a hardware store with the keys inside and gone in to buy a carpet cleaner.
“It was 10 minutes and I came out and my car was gone along with Tom in broad daylight,” Julie said. The car thief threw her wallet and other items out of the car before getting away from the scene.
47. Which of the following shows the correct order of what happened?
a. Notices were put up saying there was a reward.
b. Julie saw Tom again.
c. Police found Julie's car.
d. Julie took Tom back from a society shelter.
e. Julie bought a carpet cleaner in a hardware store.
A. d, e, a, b, c B. d, e, a, c, b C. e, a, d, b, c D. e, a, c, d, b
48. What does the underlined word “anonymous” mean in Chinese?
A. 秘密的 B. 沉默的 C. 匿名的 D. 神秘的
49. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The dog was sent back immediately after Julie put up the notices.
B. Julie and her friends worked very hard to look for her dog.
C. The thief gave the dog back but kept the sports car.
D. All the things in the car were taken away by the thief.
50. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. A car with a dog was stolen
B. Lucky dog was returned to his owner
C. Stealing cars: a most important social problem
D. Woman wants dog back more than stolen car
(C)
Rats are not many people’s favourite animals. But in most places, people have to learn to live with them.
Not in New Zealand, though. To save native (本國的) birds, the country plans to get rid of rats, possums (負(fù)鼠) and stoats (白鼬) by 2050, reported Time for Kids.
In New Zealand, rats are an invasive (入侵的) species. They arrive on boats, along with the island’s first human settlers, in the 13th century. Scientists believe that as time passed by, the rats ate and killed off several bird species on the island.
Humans also brought other animals like stoats and possums. In the beginning, stoats were hoped to eat another kind of invasive animal: rabbits. However, the stoats fed on native species instead.
Likewise, possums were introduced because people wanted their fur. But their population quickly grew out of control. Possums feed on the eggs and young of native birds.
Most of New Zealand’s native species are birds. Many, like the national bird, the kiwi (幾維鳥), can’t fly. Because they spent so long without a natural enemy, the birds lost the need to fly. When mammals (哺乳動物) like rats arrived, being not able to fly became a big problem for the birds.
The government of New Zealand suggests several ways to get rid of the mammals. Traps (捕鼠夾) and bait (誘餌) stations are the main types.
Genetic methods are also used. For example, scientists are trying to use gene technology to cause sterility (不育) in rats to control their population, reported Nature Research online.
51. All of the following animals are invasive species EXCEPT ________.
A. rats B. rabbits C. stoats D. kiwis
52. The possums were introduced to ________.
A. kill another invasive species B. provide fur for people
C. kill the bird on the island D. provide food for other mammals
53. Kiwis lost their ability to fly because ________.
A. they are too heavy to fly B. they don’t have wings
C. they don’t have a natural enemy D. they live under the ground
54. From the last two paragraphs, we can infer(推斷) that ________.
A. the government has no idea how to deal with the mammals
B. another new species will be introduced to kill the mammals
C. gene-changing technology has proven to be a big success
D. traps and bait stations work better than other ways

Making the most of time is important in our life. Here are some tips that might be of help to you.
1. Make a plan. You should make a plan every week. The plan includes things you want to finish. You should know what the most important ones are, and try your best to do them first.
2. Control your stress. No matter what kind of stress you have, try to keep cool. When you have a lot of things to do, too much stress may make you slow. Don’t work all day without breaks.
3. Close your door. When working under a plan, do your important things with your door closed. This will give you a better-quality time.
4. Focus on one thing at a time. Don’t try to do many things at a time! You will lose your focus, and it will take you longer to finish your work.
5. Just say “no”. If you really don’t have the time to help out, just say “no”. You’re only one person, and you can’t save the world by yourself!

九、書面表達(dá)：
Dear classmates,
It’s a fact that we middle school students have some problems. The most important thing is to deal with them properly.
Some of us find it hard to keep a balance between study and hobbies because too much homework takes us too long a time. I think it’s better to plan our day carefully and choose our hobby according to the time we have.
Besides, some seem to be too crazy about computer games to finish their homework on time. As a result, they often get low marks. But as the proverb says, “No pain, no gain” , we’d better pay more attention to our schoolwork in order to have a brighter future.
Sadly, a few students hardly have time to communicate with their parents. Anyway, parents are those who care about us most. Talking to them and sharing our thoughts with them are of help to our growth. / (What’s worse, some other students always keep their worries to themselves. It’s a healthy and helpful way to ask for help when necessary.)
In a word, every teenager should pay close attention to our problems and take active action. Only in this way can we make progress in both our lives and study.

Franco is a doctor in New York City. He has one week off every August for the summer holiday. Last summer he decided to take a trip to San Francisco. He didn’t want to go by air. He really wanted to see the United States, so he took the train.
The train left New York City on Monday at 10:30 p.m. During the long trip, he looked out of the window and watched the country go by. He saw large cities, small towns, and of course the beautiful countryside. For five days, Franco didn’t get off the train. He often took walks through the train and talked with the other people.
Finally at 2:45 p.m. on Friday, the train stopped in San Francisco. When he got off the train, he saw a poster on the wall of the station. It said: Wanted! Volunteer doctors in the earthquake areas! Franco went to help the injured people. He had been busy the whole week, but he was happy.
