24、When Albert Einstein was one year old, his family moved to the city of Munich in Germany. There ,his sister, Maja, was born. Albert expected a little sister to be like a toy. But Maja had no wheels like his other toys. Where are its wheels? He asked his parents, clearly disappointed with the new baby.

The where-less little girl, however, quickly became Albert 's best friend. As they grew older, Albert and Maia loved to take long walks and hikes. Often their cousins came with them. The higher the hill, the better Albert could think.

One these thinking hikes, his used his compass*,and though more about how mysterious the world was. He would lie on his back in the grass, look at the sky, and think about space. Is anything farther away than space? How fast would somebody have to go to get there? How does light get all the way from those stars to your eyes? How far does space go on? Could you ride on a beam of light? Is anything bigger than the universe?

It was as if Albert had been born to think. His father and uncles helped guide  his thinking. His sister and cousins encouraged his thinking hikes. Albert found books to help him work out math and science problems. And his mother introduced him to music, which engaged his mind in a way that books could not. Just as some kids dream of becoming a businessman, Albert was destined to be a thinker.

【1】Why was Albert Einstein disappointed with the new baby?

A. She was a girl.   B. She wasn't friendly.

C. She wasn't like a toy.   D. She didn't say a word.

【2】The underlined word" mysterious ”in Paragraph 3 probably means

A. far   B. wide   C. large   D. not known or understood

【3】The third paragraph mainly shows Albert Einstein _______.

A. was good at thinking   B. didn't know anything

C. liked lying on the grass   D. I liked answering questions

25、The climate（气候）doesn’t always stay the same. It changes slowly over hundreds or even thousands of years. In the last 100 years, the global temperature has gone up by about 0.75℃. The Earth’s temperature is getting warmer faster than ever before. As a result of the changing climate, the world’s ecosystems（生态系统）are also changing faster. For example, mangrove forests（红树林）and coral reefs in some parts of the world have been reduced rapidly for years. Increasing temperatures have also led to loss of homes for polar bears.

So what is causing climate change? The main cause is the huge amount of greenhouses, but the reason for this is the world’s population. As the population increases, more land is needed to provide food, and more energy is needed. Burning fossil fuels（化石燃料）produces CO2. What’s more, we are cutting down forests for farmland, eating a lot of meat and drinking a lot of milk from cows. All of these activities produce a lot of gases and make the Earth hotter.

No one knows exactly what is going to happen to it in the future. Lots of CO2, and other gases are now in the air and they will continue to make the Earth hotter for hundreds of years. This means that ice will become water, so seas will rise and some places will be under water. The weather will be worse and there will be more storms.

It sounds very bad, but it is possible to help stop these changes to our climate. We need to stop burning fossil fuels and get enough energy from renewable fuels like solar energy, hydroelectric（水力发电）energy or wind power to reduce the amount of CO2 in the air. We can also travel less in planes, eat less meat and make changes at home to use less energy. We must do something before it is too late.

根据短文内容，选择最佳选项，并在答题卡上将选定答案的字母标号涂黑。

【1】In Paragraph 1, how does the writer tell us the results of the climate change?

A．By asking questions.

B．By listing numbers.

C．By giving examples.

D．By comparing reasons.

【2】Why is the global climate changing more quickly?

A．Because mangroves have been more in some places.

B．Because the population of the world has increased a lot.

C．Because seas have risen and some places have been under water.

D．Because people start to use renewable energy instead of fossil fuels.

【3】What does the underlined word “it” refer to?

A．The climate.

B．The gas.

C．The sea.

D．The population.

【4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．The world’s ecosystems will surely become worse in the future.

B．There will be fewer storms because of CO2 and other gases.

C．Solar energy, hydroelectric energy and fossil fuels are renewable fuels.

D．Eating less meat is one of the ways to help stop the rapid climate change.

【5】What is the main purpose of writing this passage?

A．To tell us how the global temperature goes up every year.

B．To make us know about the reasons of the climate change.

C．To tell us what is going to happen to the climate in the future.

D．To make us pay attention to the climate change and take action.

26、   China is a country with a long history. It has great, traditional culture, especially Chinese characters (汉字). Chinese characters usually have more than one meaning and some of them are interesting. Here are six ones. We use “pinyin” here because “pinyin” is the Chinese spelling way for the characters. For example. “fu”is the “pinyin”: for good luck in Chinese. Pinyin “fu” is only the phonic part of the characters and if you want to know the meaning of good luck “fu” you must read Chinese characters “福” because“fu”also represents (代表) other Chinese characters that sound the same.

“Fu” means blessing, good fortune, good luck. Chinese character “fu” is one of the most popular ones used during Chinese New Year. Chinese people often put up “fu” upside down on the front door of a house or an apartment. The upside down“fu”means good luck comes since the character for upside down in Chinese sounds the same as the character for “come”.

“Lu” is used to mean official’s pay in old China. “Shou” means long life, age or birthday. “Xi”is happiness, The doubled character “xi” means double happiness. It is usually put up everywhere at Chinese weddings. “Cai” is wealth or money. Chinese often say “money can make a ghost turn a millstone”. It is to say money really can do a lot of things. But, money can’t buy everything. “He” is an important part of Chinese culture. It means good relations with other people, when you have “he”, things will be a lot easier for you. The top six lucky Chinese characters. “fu” “lu” “shou” “xi” “cai” “he”, are particularly loved by Chinese people.

【1】We use ________ to show how to read the Chinese characters.

A.pinyin B.letters C.words D.spelling

【2】People in China most probably put up the Chinese Characters ________ on the front door at their wedding.

A.“cai” B.“fu” C.doubled “xi” D.doubled “he”

27、Dear Amy

How are you? Mum, Dad and I went to Thailand last week. We had a great time!

We arrived at the airport early on Friday morning. I chose a window seat on the plane. I could see the clouds clearly from the window. They looked soft and shiny. Four hours later, we landed in Thailand.

We stayed at a hotel in Pattaya on our first day. We went to the beach. We played different water sports there. We had so much fun! We were tired when we got back to the hotel.

On the next day, we went to Bangkok. We visited two temples there. They looked like golden bells with pointed tops. We took some photos outside the temples and had a walk in the gardens. In the evening, we had dinner at a restaurant next to a lake. The food was very spicy so I kept drinking cold water!

On the last day, we hung out at a shopping mall. Mum bought a beautiful tea set. Dad bought some T-shirts and I bought some dried mangoes (芒果干). We went to the airport after lunch. I was lucky because I got a window seat again. This time I could see the beautiful sunset (日落).

We enjoyed the trip very much. I hope we will go on another trip again soon.

Love

Polly
