Here are just a few of the letters we received from kids on both sides of the subject.Silas ReitsmaI thi nk that the gover nment should stop maki ng pennies and make n ickel五分钱） out of the same material 材（料） that they now make pennies from since it now costs 10 cents to make a nickel. That way, making nickels would be likely to make money.Siddharth TanejaI think that the United States should get rid of the penny because it costs more than it 's worth and we 've gotten rid of a coin before. In the past, there was a coin called the half penny, but we got rid of that. The penny is a useless coin. In fact, the government should also improve the nickel by reducing its thickness and by changing the metal that nickels are made of.Tovar SteinI think the United States should keep the penny because I really like to collect pennies. I wouldn't be able to collmectiftthheere were no more pennies. So keep thepenny!Neha SripathiWe should not get rid of pennies, as five pennies cost the same as one nickel to make. As stores are likely to round prices up without pennies, things will get expensive, hurting the poor.Diana ClayThe U.S. should keep the penny. Many charities depend on penny drives. Getting rid of the penny would cause them to get less money.25. Both Reitsma and Taneja ____ .A. like to collect old nickelsB. want to keep using penniesC. advise the government to change nickelsD. hope to make pennies from new material26. How does Stein feel about the penny?A. She dislikes it.B. She is fond of it.C. She has doubts about it.D. She thinks it worthless.27. In Sripathi ' s opinion, _____ .A. pennies will rise in valueB. the penny is a useless coinC. pennies are to the poor ' s advantageD. nickels will get more and more expensiveCWhen planning a vacation, many people consider the popular tourist sites they want to visit. But that's noht uwshbaatnmdyand I did when we planned our vacationto Japan. We thought about the kind of farm we wanted to visit.Ours was far from a typical （典型的） vacation. We were WWOOFing! WWOOF stands for World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms. The organization connects people interested in organic farming. Volunteers, known as WWOOFers, help their hosts with daily activities. These include everything from baking bread to picking vegetables. Hosts provide volunteers with food and provide a place for them to stay.My husband and I certainly felt like family when our host met us at the train station. She told us to call her Okasan—Mom. Likewise, we called her husband Otosan—Dad. Okasan and Otosan own an organic vegetable farm that tries to provide the local people with fresh, healthy food. When no WWOOFers are around to help, the farm work is done only by Otosan and Okasan. As part of the family, we were able to enjoy the fruits of our labor at every meal. Eating fresh vegetables three times a day combined with six hours of farm work, certainly did our bodies good. We planted vegetables and cleared rocks from fields. We also packed the vegetables so they could be sold at the market.Perhaps the most challenging thing we did was weeding a rice field. It was quite challenging because the leaves and roots of the weeds look very similar to the rice.It ' s not until both plants are matu成I熟的）that you can clearly tell them apart —only one produces rice.WWOOFing is unlike anything I ' ve ever done before, and I can do it ' t wait to again! Let ' s WWOOF!28. What do we know about WWOOF?A. It belongs to a Japanese farm.B. It helps the poor do farm work.C. It provides tourists with hotels.D. It is an organization connected with farming.29. What can we infer from Paragraph 3 aobut Okasan and Otosan ' s farm?A. It benefits both the locals and WWOOFers.B. It attracts many visitors every day.C. It provides free food for the locals.D. It is supported by the government.30. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A. The method of producing rice.B. The hard time of the farm family.C. The difficulties in weeding a rice field.D. The most challenging thing for WWOOF.31. The author would most likely describe her WWOOFing as ___A. satisfyingB. worryingC. boringD. tiringDFor more than fifty years, a worker was forced to sit on the back of a truck and slowly drop plastic barriers （障碍） to set out lanes 车（道） on the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Every day, their direction changes to control the traffic, meaning an employee had to go through the difficult task every twenty-four hours.But a new piece of machinery means the work can be completed in a matter of minutes. A new “ zipper truck ” has been introduced. The vehicmleolavye s a nd lane barrier as it drives over the bridge. Last weekend, the bridge was closed so the new safety barrier, designed to reduce the dangers of head-on crashes, could be set up.For the longest period in its nearly eighty-year history, the bridge was closed early Saturday to all but walkers, cyclists and buses to set up the barriers on the 1.7-mile bridge. A survivor of a 2008 head-on crash on the bridge spoke Sunday from a wheelchair to help in troduce the new barrier, made of steel-clad con cretG R 包混凝土） blocks that can move across the bridge 's six lanes to meet traffic needs.Dr. Grace Dammann pushed for a safer barrier since becoming unable to walk after the accident. She said she decided to drive near the middle of the bridge, which was called the“u s icide （自杀）lane ”, because she and her daughter were running late. Brian Clark, who was driving in the opposite direction, had just learned his father had cancer. “He suddenly lost control of the wheel, crossed over and hit my car, Dammann said.She said she and Clark became friends as they persuaded the government to use the $30 million barrier. “I am so thankful,said D”ammann, who came to the ceremony （仪式） with Clark. “Clark andI thank you. ”32. What is the zipper truck for?A. Building bridges.B. Repairing the road.C. Carrying plastic barriers.D. Setting up safe lane barriers.33. What can we infer about the Golden Gate Bridge?A. It is being repaired now.B. It is a bridge with eight lanes.C. It had very dangerous lanes before.D. It is too old to be used at the moment.34. What do we learn about Dammann and Clark?A. They organized the ceremony.B. They are both government officials.C. They designed the new zipper truck.D. They were in favor of the new barrier.35. What is the text mai nly about?A. A worker on the Golden Gate Bridge.B. A great bridge in San Fran cisco.C. A new safer barrier system.D. A serious traffic accide nt.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

A similar tragedy took place in the 19th-century Russia. And the rebuilding effort of the Russians might offer some inspiration to the French.Standing in the heart of the Russian capital, with 60,000 square meters of floor space and 1,500 rooms, the Winter Palace was among the world's grandest buildings. On Dec. 17, 1837, a fire broke out in the Winter Palace. By the morning of Dec. 19, only the structure's framework remained.For the czar (沙皇), the fire presented a political challenge. Fearing that Russia's enemies would cast the fire as a blow to the czarist order, the czar's supporters quickly worked together to shape the description of the fire in Russia and abroad. They wanted the country to appear united. And they certainly didn't want despair to become the story.The first full account of the fire was written in French by the poet Petr Viazemskii. A Russian translation appeared two months later. That text and others painted a highly idealized picture of the response to the tragedy. The accounts noted that the czar forcefully directed the fire's containment(控制). Soldiers were selfless to save the palace. The Russian people felt the loss just as deeply as the czar.To erase the shame of the fire, the czar set a nearly impossible goal:rebuild the palace within 15 months, and he ordered that the rebuilt palace look exactly as it had before. Thousands of workers labored on the construction site. They made rapid progress. On March 25, 1839, the czar celebrated the rebirth of the Winter Palace.Outwardly identical to the old version, the new palace featured more iron and brick in its structures—and less wood. It was far less fire-prone(有火灾危险的) than the original.Notre Dame hasn't experienced the same level of destruction as the Winter Palace. If the Russian phoenix of 1839 is any indication, there is hope that a renewed Notre Dame will once again grace (为……增色) thebanks of the Seine(塞纳河).4.What do we know about the fire in the Winter Palace?A.It burnt down 60,000 rooms.B.It lasted more than 24 hours.C.It was set by Russia's enemies.D.It completely destroyed the palace.5.Why did the czar decide to rebuild the palace in a short time?A.To secure his power.B.To challenge his enemies.C.To unite French people.D.To celebrate his birthday.6.What did Viazemskii and others stress in their accounts?A.The scene of the fire.B.The selflessness of the czar.C.The Russians' joint effort to fight the fire.D.The ideal result achieved by the Russians.7.What's the author's purpose in writing the passage?A.To describe a fire at the Winter Palace.B.To praise the renewal of the Winter Palace.C.To express sympathy for the Notre Dame.D.To inspire confidence in rebuilding the Notre Dame.CTower Bridge is a bascule bridge in London, over the River Thames. It is close to the Tower of London, which gives it its name. It is sometimes incorrectly referred to as London Bridge, which is the next bridge upstream (在上游). It is one of five London bridges now owned and maintained by the Bridge House Estates.In the second half of the nineteenth century, increased commercial (贸易的) development in the East End of London led to a requirement for a new river crossing downstream of London Bridge. A Special Bridge or Subway Committee was formed in 1876 to find a solution to the river crossing problem. It opened the design of the crossing to public competition. Over 50 designs were received. The judgment of the designs was surrounded by argument, and it wasn't until 1884 that a design sent by Horace Jones was sanctioned.Construction of the bridge started in 1886 and took about 8 years' hard work of 432 construction workers. Over 70,000 tons of concrete were sunk into the river bed to support the construction. Over 11,000 tons of steel provided the framework (框架) for the towers and walkways. Horace Jones died in 1887, and another engineer took over the project. The bridge was opened in 1894.The bridge sits almost directly above the Tower Subway, the world's first underground tube railway (1870), which, until the bridge was opened,was the shortest way to cross the River Thames. A computer system was installed (安装) in 2000 to control the raising and lowering of the bascule. However, this has proved less reliable than expected, resulting in the bridge being stuck in the open or closed position on a number of occasions.8.What does Paragraph 1 say about Tower Bridge?A.It's named after a famous person.B.It's another name for London Bridge.C.It's not far from the Tower of London.D.It's the only bridge over the River Thames.9.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “sanctioned” in Paragraph 2?A.Tried.B.Received.C.Discovered.D.Passed.10.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A.The history of Tower Bridge.B.The building of Tower Bridge.C.The influence of Tower Bridge.D.The importance of Tower Bridge.11.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.Many breakdowns have happened to Tower Bridge.B.The computer system works better than expected.C.The underground tube railway has a history of less than 20 years.D.The Tower Subway is the shortest way to cross the River Thames.DNamed “America's Finest City” due to its hospitality, beauty and ideal climate, San Diego is located on the border with Mexico. The residents are so active outdoors that it is called “Sportstown, the U.S.A.” San Diego's 70 miles of beaches are a heaven for swimmers, surfers, divers, boaters and sunbathers. Another favourite outside activity is golf. With 100 courses (about 50 of them public), San Diego is a golfer's paradise.Many San Diego residents came here first as tourists who were attracted by San Diego's sunny beaches, nearby mountains and deserts, plus the cultural delights of any big city. The world-famous San Diego Zoo, Sea World, Wild Animal Park, museums, concerts and other attractions bring visitors from around the world.The zoo is home to some 4,000 animals, including the world's largest collection of parrots. Animals are displayed in natural settings, and there is a petting zoo for children. By contrast, the Wild Animal Park is a wildlife preserve with an area of over 2,000 acres and more than 3,000 free-roaming(漫步) animals in natural habitats.In addition to housing the zoo, Balboa Park is home to several museums and attractions, including an aerospace museum, an art andhistory museum, the Old Globe Theatre, science museums and even a railroad museum. Free concerts are offered frequently. Another popular attraction is Sea World, a 150-acre marine park.San Diego's varied attractions, as well as its business climate, offer many opportunities for students to explore the local culture, meet people from around the world, and gain business experience. At San Diego State University, for example, students in the American Language Institute's study tour program learn English both in the classroom and while sightseeing.12.The residents of San Diego probably like to .A.have sports outdoorsB.travel to other placesC.stay at homeD.stay outdoors all day13.Many San Diego residents came to settle down in San Diego because .A.it was more convenient to live thereB.they were attracted by its beauty and cultureC.they could make money from tourism thereD.it was a quiet place to enjoy themselves14.Which of the following most attracts children?A.The parrots.B.The art and history museum.C.The petting zoo.D.The Old Globe Theatre.15.We can infer from the last paragraph that .A.San Diego is a good place for students to gain practical experienceB.San Diego State University is most famous for language studiesC.San Diego is not a good place to do businessD.students at San Diego State University don't have to work hard第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
