Your friends might be in England or may be just next-door neighbors, but they are all just a

few clicks away. Life has changed a lot for millions of young people 36 like to make

friends online around the world. Whether you use the chat room, QQ or MSN, you are in this

group.

"I don't often 37 my parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my friends on QQ,"

said Tears in Hand, an online name used by a girl student in China.

QQ is the biggest messaging service in China. A report from the company which developed

QQ 38 that 4 million people used it one Saturday night in October. And probably Tears in

Hand was one of them. "I log in on Friday nights, Saturdays or Sundays, when I feel 39 . I

D. With pleasure

usually spend about ten hours chatting online every week," she said. "But I never talk with

40 , especially boys or men." Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making

friends with strangers online 41 she knows that she shouldn't believe in the strangers

online easily.

Many people like to 42 online friends when they feel they have got to know someone

very well. Tears in Hand once met one online friend face to face and they went to a football

match together.

A boy named Blue Sky dislikes QQ users. "I 43 chatted on QQ in the past, but I

found most people are talking about foolish things. Now I only chat in English on MSN with my

Japanese or American friends because I want to learn more about foreign cultures," he said. So

he spends very 44 time chatting on QQ and he thinks it's a waste of time and money. He

believes that friends in real life are 45 than those online ones, and making friends with

people around is a good choice.

阅读下列材料，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

There is a special kind of hotel in Quebec, Canada. It has a bar, a church, a shop and a small

theater. These things are not unusual. But this hotel is only open from January to March every

year. Why? Because it is made of ice and snow. When the weather gets warm, the hotel melts(融化)and closes. Every winter, the hotel owners build the hotel again.

Everything in the ice hotel is made of ice and snow. All the furniture, such as the tables and

chairs, is made of ice. Even the beds are made of ice! So people use special sleeping bags on the

ice beds. Inside the ice hotel, the temperature is about 27ºF (-3ºC).

When people sleep, the sleeping bags keep them warm. In the morning, they can have a hot

breakfast. After breakfast, people can enjoy winter activities. They can go skiing or ice fishing.

Or they can go skating in the dining room. At the end of the day, people can relax at the bar.

They can have drinks in glasses made of ice.

Many people enjoy the ice hotel every year. But they can only enjoy it for a short time

before it melts again.

46. Every year, this hotel is only open for .

A. about a year

B. two seasons

D. four weeks

C. fishing D. swimming

C. about three months

A. skiing B. skating

47. In the dining room after breakfast, people can go .

48. What's the best title of this passage?

A. An Unusual Hotel

C. A Common Hotel

B. A Warm Hotel

D. An Old Hotel

B

After living and teaching in China for 10 months, my wife and I returned to California to visit

our children and friends. Many of them asked what we liked most

about China. The friendly people, the wonderful food, and the

beautiful sights were at the top of our list. Then one night, after

yet another restaurant dinner with friends, I realized that there

was one other thing that I really liked about China: No tipping.

Tipping is a subject that has long interested me.

In America, the three kinds of services that require tipping are waiters/waitresses, taxi drivers,

and barbers. The standard tip is now between 15 and 20 per cent of the bill, depending on the

quality of service. Why these three services are worth this special treatment is a mystery to me.

Why am I supposed to tip a waiter for bringing me food when I don’t need to tip the flight

attendant on an airplane for doing the same thing? Why do I need to tip a taxi driver, but not the

bus driver? Why am I expected to tip the barber for cutting my hair but not the dentist for fixing

my teeth? I have been a teacher for 39 years. No one has ever tipped me after a particularly

successful class or lecture.

The tipping problem in many European countries is solved by adding a 15 per cent to the bill.

I prefer the Chinese solution: No tipping at all.

When I was visiting the US this summer, I went out to dinner several times with friends.

Having spent 10 months in China not even thinking about tipping, I found it uncomfortable to

have to spend extra money on the meal. While I understand why China, as a developing nation, has

slowly accepted many Western customary practices, I hope the Chinese are wise enough to never

start the unnecessary practice of tipping.

49. What made the writer realize that he liked no tipping most about China?

A. Talking with his friends.

B. Returning to California.

D. Having dinner in a restaurant.

C.

＄50. D.

＄100.

C. Giving a large amount of tips.

A.

＄20. B.

＄30.

50. How much should be paid as a tip if the bill is＄200 in a European restaurant?

51. What kind of services requires tipping in America?

A. Waiters, barbers and teachers.

B. Waiters, barbers and taxi drivers.

C. Waiters, flight attendant and taxi drivers.

D. Waiters, teachers and flight attendant.

C

Hi, my name is Murray Wenzel. But my friends call me Muz, Muzza, Wenz or even Moon.

Yes, I have lots of nicknames. But in Australia, where I am from, that’s quite common.

In fact most men in Australia call their friends something other than their real name. It is

part of our culture to shorten or make up names for those we know and love. For example, one

of my friend’s names is Alex, but we call him Al. Another is named Jayson, but everyone knows

him as Jase. In Australia most men called William are known as Bill, while Jeremy is Jez, James

is Jim and Joseph is Joey.

Sometimes we use the person’s surname in their nickname, like my friend Karl Schussig

who we call Schuzza. Sometimes we combine them, like my friend Troy Cassels being called

TC. And we sometimes make up a new name for our friends. My friend Nathan’s nickname is

“Prez”, because when we first met he joked that I should call him “El Presidente”.

Even more confusing is when we are given ironic(讽刺的) nicknames. For example, a man

with red hair will be known as Bluey, a tall man will be called Shorty or a large man will be

known as Slim.

Most of my friends call me Muz, but those who I play hockey(曲棍球) with call me Moon.

However, my parents still call me Murray.

So, I have different names depending on who I am talking to. Nicknames are so popular

that sometimes people forget what the person’s real name is.

I think it is our way of showing affection to those we are close to.

52. Which of the following about nicknames is NOT true?

A. Nicknames are sometimes one’s surname.

B. One person usually has only one nickname.

C. It’s common to have a nickname in Australia.

D. Nicknames are often used between friends.

53. “Bill” is the nickname of .

A. Murray

A. a joke

B. Jeremy

C. William

C. hockey

D. Joseph

D. his surname

54. Nathan’s nickname comes from .

B. his full name

55. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. The importance of nicknames in Australian.

B. A brief introduction of nicknames in Australia.

C. The reason why people have nicknames in Australia.

D. The meaning of a nickname for a person in Australia.

D

(An excerpt of After Twenty Years)

There was now a cold rain falling and the wind was stronger. The few people walking along

that street were hurrying, trying to keep warm. At the door of the shop stood the man who had

come a thousand miles to meet a friend, Jimmy Wells. Twenty years ago, they agreed to meet

here tonight. Such a meeting could not be certain. But he waited.

About twenty minutes he waited, and then a tall man in a long coat came hurrying across

the street. He went directly to the waiting man.

“Is that you, Bob?” he asked, doubtfully.

“Is that you, Jimmy Wells?” cried Bob.

The new man took Bob’s hands in his. “It’s Bob! It surely is. I was certain I would find you

here if you were still alive. Twenty years is a long time. The old restaurant is gone, Bob. I wish it

were here, so that we could have another dinner in it. Has the West been good to you?”

“It gave me everything I asked for. You’ve changed, Jimmy. I never thought you were so

tall.”

“Oh, I grew a little after I was twenty.”

“Are you doing well in New York, Jimmy?”

“Well enough. I work for the city. Come on, Bob. We’ll go to a place I know, and have a

good long talk about old times.”

The two men started along the street, arm in arm. Bob, the man from the West, was

beginning to tell the story of his life. The other, with his coat up to his ears, listened with

interest.

At the corner stood a shop bright with electric lights. When they came near, each turned to

look at the other’s face.

The man from the West stopped suddenly and pulled his arm away. “You’re not Jimmy

Wells,” he said. “Twenty years is a long time, but not long enough to change the shape of a

man’s nose.”

“It sometimes changes a good man into a bad one,” said the tall man. “You’ve been under

arrest for ten minutes, Bob. Chicago policemen thought you might be coming to New York.

They told us to watch for you. Are you coming with me quietly? That’s wise. But first here is

something I was asked to give you. You may read it here at the window. It’s from a policeman

named Wells.”

56. Where did the story happen?

A. In New York. B. In Chicago.

C. In the West. D. In a restaurant.

57. How did Bob find out that the new man wasn’t his real friend?

A. From his height and his voice.

C. From their talking about old times.

B. From the shape of his nose.

D. From their meeting place.

58. In which order did the following events take place?

a. Bob found out his new man wasn’t his friend.

b. The tall man gave Bob a note from Wells.

c. Bob waited at the door of a shop.

d. They had a talk about Bob’s life in the West.

e. The new man came to meet him.

A. c-e-d-a-b. B. e-b-c-a-d. C. c-d-a-e-b. D. e-c-a-b-d.

59. According to the passage, we know .

A. the tall man was Bob’s old friend

B. the two men had dinner in a restaurant

C. Jimmy came to Chicago to meet Bob

D. Bob was a criminal wanted in Chicago

60. What can we infer(推断) from the story?

A. Time may change a good man into a bad one.

B. The police would make some notes on Bob.

C. Bob came from the far West to meet his friend.

D. They promised to meet each other 20 years ago.

Internet is educational. Many people think children should be allowed to surf the Internet as

they wish. In this way, they can 71 different subjects on different kinds of websites

according to their own interest. But in my opinion, children should always be 72 while

surfing the Internet.

Many websites have information and pictures that children should not see. There are many

things that children don’t understand. All of these may 73 on children‘s development. Also,

it is dangerous to let children use chat rooms by themselves. Many parents tell their children not

．．．．What do you do when you come across a problem while doing your homework? Andy

would take out his smart phone, open a special app and searched the problem. Answers soon

appeared on the screen.

Nowadays, many students do homework with the help of the Internet. They search for

information online, use apps or discuss through social networks like QQ and WeChat.

“It’s convenient (方便的),” Andy said, “You also learn by seeing how others work them

out.”

“It also improves students’ abilities,” said John, another student. He said it’s true for new

types of homework.

John’s Chinese teacher often asks students to give speeches on great authors. When it

comes to John’s turn, he usually searches online, picks out certain stories and makes PowerPoint

presentations.

“I’ve become skilled at finding information online and using Microsoft Office,” Wang said.

However, many students think this trend (趋势) also brings up problems. Some students

just copy the answers online without thinking. They become lazy.

A head teacher in Andy and John’s school said that knowing how to use the Internet is

important. The key is to have good self-control.

“No matter how difficult the problem is, think about it independently (独立地) first,” the

teacher said. “Be sure to understand the reasons behind the answers, or you won’t make progress.

If you aren’t confident about your self-control, ask your parents for help.”

People eat different dishes during the traditional festival, the Spring Festival. Some of them

have special meanings and s 86 for good luck.

In China, fish s 87 like “yu (means something left) in Chinese”. It is necessary because

more in the next year. The head shouldn’t be moved. The two people who face the head and the

tail should drink together, as this is c 88 to have a lucky meaning.
