三. 阅读理解(每小题2分，共24分)
A
A wise man was visiting a village with his students. He found a group of family members shouting in anger at each other. He turned to his students and asked，"Why do people shout in anger at each other?" His students thought for a while, and one of them said, "Because when we lose our calm, we shout. "
"But why should you shout when the other person is just next to you? You may just tell him what you have to say in a soft manner as well, " said the wise man.
Students gave some other answers but none was any good.
"When two people are angry with each other, their hearts become distant, " the wise man explained, "To cover that distance they must shout to be heard by each other. The angrier they are，the louder they will have to shout at each other to cover that great distance."
The wise man then gave an example, "What happens when two people fall in love? They don't shout at each other but talk softly because their hearts are very close. When they love each other even more, what happens? They don't need to talk. They only look at each other and that's all. That is how close two people are when they love each other. "
He looked at his students and said, "So when you argue(争吵), do not let your hearts get distant. Do not say words that distance you from others. Otherwise, there will come a day when the distance is so great that you will not find the path to return. "
26.What did they find when a wise man and his students were visiting a village?
A. A group of people were travelling there.
B. A group of family members were playing there.

A. they are not friends
B. they don't like each other
C. they lose their calm
D. they are far away from each other
28.What happens when two people are angry with each other?
A. They fight with each other.
B. Their hearts become distant.
C. They are far away from each other.
D. They of a too angry to say a word.
29.What usually happens to two people when they fall in love with each other according to the
passage?
A. They talk softly.
B. They shout at each other.

D. They don't say anything to each other.

Knowing how to stay safe is just as important as knowing the family rules. Again, this is something you need to talk about with your mum, dad, or both of them. Go over safety rules for the kitchen if you'll be doing any cooking while you're at home alone. It's a good idea to practice what you would do in a real emergency(紧急事件), just in case anything ever happens.
Kids who are at home alone might worry that someone could break into the house and hurt them. The good news is that this is very unlikely. But keeping the doors and windows locked will help you to stay safe.
Discuss with your mum or dad what to do if the phone rings or if someone knocks at the door, and remember your parents' words. It's never a good idea to tell someone that you're at home by yourself. And if you get home and the door is open or a window is smashed, don't even go inside. Instead, go to a neighbour you trust for help.
Other kinds of emergencies could come up, too, like a fire, or you or your brother might get sick or hurt. Just in case, you'll want to know:
◆how to dial(拨打)911
◆your address and phone number
◆the name, address and phone number of the place where your mum or dad works
◆t he name, phone number and address of a trusted neighbour
30.The second paragraph tells us the safety rules .
A. in the neighbour's house
B. at home
C. in the kitchen
D. in the neighbourhood
31.When you are at home, someone knocks at the door. What should you do?
A. Dial 911 right away.
B. Tell him that you're at home alone.
C. Do as your parents tell you to.
D. Open the door for him at once.
32.Which is NOT true according to the passage?
A. It's a good idea to practice what to do in an emergency.
B. Staying safe is important.
C. It's necessary for you to know safety rules for the kitchen.
D. It isn't important to know the phone number of the place where your parent works.
33.The main idea of the passage is about .
A. how to stay safe
B. how to cook in the kitchen
C. how to ask for help
D. how to remember phone number.

New York at night loses its hard character during the day．On the quiet waters is casting(投射)a dark outline of the Statue of Liberty under the pale moonlight．Across the Hudson and East Rivers are the Manhattan bridges with their strings of lights．There are millions of colourful lights rising higher and higher to the top of the buildings，which are like the crown of the queen of American cities．Although New York is neither the capital of the United States，nor even the
capital of New York State，it is one of the most famous cities in the world!

七. 书面表达
Recently, we have discussed the ways to go travelling. Here is the result.
Some students choose to travel with a group. They th ink they won’t get lost with a guide’s help and they don’t need to look for hotels by themselves. Besides, they can make friends and help each other while travelling.
However, other students prefer to travel alone. That’s because they can arrange their time freely and ch oose to visit their favourite sights. What’s more, it’s a chance for them to learn to look after themselves.
For me, I’d like to travel alone. I want to spend enough time visiting the place I like. In this
way, I can enjoy my vacation better.
