Others say writing with a pen andWriting by hand may take longer than typing, but it seems to improve learning. Researchwhether they’re printing letters, using joined-up writing, or practicing calligraphy (the art of beautiful handwriting). No two people have the same handwriting, which makes it a verylike a phone or laptop, which also offers easy access to the Internet, games and apps.三、单词拼写四、完成句子五、阅读理解①Care for each otherBe friendly to people who live and workin the countryside, as well as fellowvisitors. That means sharing spaces andnot making too much noise. Cyclists haveto give way to walkers.

This makes it harder to save up for the things that you really want, but also means you might run out of money. In that case, you have to 45 what you need, not just what you want.What do you need?People often 46 things that they need for things that they want. For example, you need to eat dinner, but that doesn’t mean you need takeaway pizza—you just want it. You might hear grown-ups talking about how they “need” a holiday, but this is something they would 47 instead of something they need to survive.What do you want?Wants are items that would be nice to have, but you can 48 them. Unlike needs, your wants will change over time. As a child you might want a new bike, but when you get a bit older you want a phone, new clothes, or even a car.When you have some money, it’s 49 that you will spend it all on the things you want. This isn’t a good idea because there’s a risk you won’t have enough money left to pay for things you need.Mindful spendingUnfortunately, we can’t always have everything we want, at least not right away. Therefore, it is important to think twice about whether you 50 need something rightnow.Getting into the habit of doing this now will make it much easier to manage money when you’re grown up.Stop and think before you spend.45.A.dream of B.point at C.work out D.make up 46.A.prepare B.explore C.reach D.mistake 47.A.enjoy B.trust C.believe D.produce 48.A.depend on B.live without C.prepare for D.reach for 49.A.difficult B.safe C.likely D.serious 50.A.safely B.actually C.strictly D.carefully七、短文填空在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其通顺。

Whether we choose to keep moving around, or we choose to stay in one place, we are on a journey. That journey is not an easy one because every day it makes us face new problems in new ways.When I was a little boy, I always looked forward to the next trip or the next holiday. Maybe it is because we lived in a small and boring town. When I finished school, I kept moving. In the first year out of school, I travelled with a friend and we visited over 17 countries in Europe, working in different jobs as we went. After this, I started studying. I studied at three different universities and lived in five different towns. That was my life. There was always someone else to get to know. All this carried on for many years until I got married and had my own family. When you stay in the same place, with the same persons, you start a whole new journey.Then you will stay in the same town, choosing one place to live and one job to remain in. There you are challenged to face life, doing things such as trying hard to get along well with your boss. Y ou have to keep on at your job when you feel like giving it up and traveling again.So rather than move around on different trips, you are on a new journey.

Some people can have as many as two or three different newspapers. But why do people read newspapers?Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings, such as battles lost and won, kings or rulers (统治者) overthrown (推翻) or killed, took months and even years to travel from one country to another. The news passed by words of mouth. Today we can read in our newspapers of important things that happen in faraway countries at the same time.Besides giving news from all over the world, newspapers tell us a lot of other useful information. There are weather reports, as well as radio, television and film guides. There are also book reviews, stories, and of course, advertisements (广告). There are all kinds of advertisements. They pay the newspapers thousands of dollars for the advertising space (广告版面), but it is worth the money because news of what they make in factories goes into almost every home in the country. For those who make newspapers, advertisements are also very important. Money from advertisements makes it possible for them to sell their newspapers at a low price and still make a profit (利润).1.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Almost all the people all over the world read newspapers.B.Why do people read newspapers?C.Newspapers can make a good profit.D.How did the newspapers come about?2.What does the word “it” refer to?A.The newspapers.

In space, they get to do some pretty amazing things, like floating in zero gravity(重力).However, there are also plenty of things that astronauts can't do because of their weightless environment, and that's very sad. What's worse, they can't even let their sadness show, because it's impossible to cry in zero gravity.Of course, astronauts can still produce tears. But crying is much more difficult in space, according to The Atlantic(大西洋月刊) in January. Without gravity, tears don't flow(流动) down out of the eyes like they do here on Earth. This means that when you cry in space, your tears have nowhere to go-they just stick(粘) to your eyes.In May 2011, astronaut Andrew Feustel experienced this during one of his spacewalks. "Tears," he said, "don't fall off of your eyes...They just kind of stay there."Besides making your vision(视线)unclear, this can also cause physical pain. Back on Earth, tears are supposed to bring comfort to the eyes. But that's not the case in space. The space environment dries out astronauts' eyes, and when tears suddenly wet the eyes, it can cause pain rather than comfort. "My right eye is stinging(刺痛) like crazy," Feustel told his teammate during the walk.Since gravity doesn't work in space, astronauts need some extra help to get rid of(除去)the tears. Feustel chose to rub his eyes against his helmet to wipe(擦) the tears away. Another choice is to just wait-"When the tears get big enough they simply break free of the eyes and float around," astronaut Ron Parise told The Atlantic.There are lots of small things-things like crying-that we are so used to on Earth. We usually take them for granted until they become a problem in a totally different environment, like space. There, astronauts can't talk to each other directly. They also can't eat or drink in normal ways. They can't even burp (打嗝), because there is no gravity to hold the food down in their stomach. If they do burp, they just end up throwing up(呕吐)everything in their stomach, according to the UK National Space Center.Therefore, perhaps it's only space explorers who can honestly say: "Gravity, you're the best."1.From Paragraphs 2 and 3 , we can know that_______.A.astronauts are unable to feel sad in spaceB.astronauts produce fewer tears in spaceC.tears produced in space flow down more slowlyD.tears produced in space don't flow downward2.What effect do tears have on astronauts?A.They cause physical pain.B.They bring comfort to them.C.They make their vision clearer.D.They float around and cause trouble.3.The underlined phrase "take them for granted" in paragraph 7 means _______.A.find them importantB.consider them uselessC.need them during an emergencyD.fail to notice their presence(存在)4.The second-to-last paragraph (paragraph 7) is mainly about_______.A.suggestions of how astronauts can stay comfortable in spaceB.other basic things that are difficult to do in spaceC.why burping is impossible in spaceD.things human can't do without gravityB14、(D)Family meals: Easy fish pie By Caroline HireA simple fish pie that’s quick to prepare Cook a big dish for the whole family within one hourJust follow me and have a try1.How long does it take to prepare and cook the dishA.15 minutes B.25 minutes C.55 minutes D.60 minutes 2.How much milk do you need to cook the dishA.25ml B.50g C.400ml D.400g3.Before boiling the potatoes, what should you do with themA.Add enough water to cover them.

Mr Green asked him,"Do you like to live in this quiet place?” The old man said,"Yes,I do. "Mr Green asked again,"What are the good things about it?"The old man answered,"Well,the people here know each other. They often come and visit me,and I often go and visit them. And there are also lots of children here."Mr Green said,"That's interesting. And what are the bad things?"

It hadn`t rained in almost a month. The crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. If it didn`t rain soon, we would lose everything. On this day, I witnessed(目睹) a wonder.I was making lunch when I saw my 6-year old son, Billy, walking very slowly toward the woods. Minutes later he came running out again, toward the house. Soon after, I saw him walking toward the woods again. This went on for an hour. Finally I walked out of the house quietly and followed him.Billy cupped both hands in front of him carefully as he walked into the woods. in order not to drop the water he carried. Then I saw an amazing sight. Several large deer stood in front of him. Billy walked right up to them. I saw a tiny baby deer lyin g on the ground. It was dying of thirst, and it lifted its head with great effort to drink the water in my boy’s hands.When the water was gone, Billy ran back to the house. I followed him to the tap. Billy opened it and a small trickle(涓涓细流) came out. He knelt there, letting the drips(水滴) slowly fill up his “cup”.Now I understood what was going on. The week before, he tried giving water to our horses but I told him not to waste water. Now when he stood up and turned, I was there in front of him. His eyes filled with tears. “I’m not wasting,” he said. I joined him with a small pot of water from the kitchen. I let him walk to the baby deer alone while I stood at the edge ofthe woods. As tears rolled down my face, they were suddenly joined by other drops…and more drops… as if the sky itself was crying.1.What did the writer think of the son?A.Clever B.Wasteful C.Helpful D.Forgetful2.The boy carried the water to the baby deer _____.A.with a small pot B.by using an empty bottleC.with the help of large deer D.by cupping his both hands.3.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A.Cows had stopped giving milk because they were old.B.The writer thought the son wasted water when he tried giving water to horses.C.The baby deer was dying because of lack of the water.4.The last sentence in the last paragraph means that_____.A.the son cried because his parent told him not to waste waterB.the writer was moved by the son and began to cryC.a big trickle came out of the tap for the deer to drinkD.the son cried because the baby deer died5.What’s the best title for the passage?A.The Importance of Water. B.The Wasted Water.C.The Water of Life. D.How to Save Animals.E17、The right name is important in the business world. All you have to do is to think of the names for some of the products you buy every day and you'll agree that the name and the product are connected in everyone's mind.In many countries, successful trade or brand(商标)names are protected by law so that other companies cannot make the same product by copying. Businesses register(注册)a company or a product name with the government. In fact, more than 1,000 product and company names are registered every hour. Many companies spend a lot of money to find the right name for their products. A good example of this is in the car industry. Some successful names for cars have powerful associations(联系).The Ford Mustang and the Jaguar are only two examples of choosing the names of animals that are fast and strong.When a U.S. company decides to sell its product in another country, it has to make sure that the product name translates properly. When Coca-Cola introduced its soft drink to China it looked for the right name. It wanted a name that would do two things. One was to present its image in Chinese and the second was to be close to its first brand name-Coke. It took some efforts before finding the right word-which sounds similar and translates as "happiness in the mouth". Asian company names are not new to the United States. The brand names of Samsung and Sony have been successful. Finding the right brand name is a big business. Asian companies that sell to foreign markets pay to find a name that will connect with its customers. There are even naming companies that offer help in inventing product names. These companies can charge(要价)up to $ 100,000 a word for their good names. But it's worth it. Successful companies know how important the right brand names are for their development.1.How many brand names are mentioned(提及)in the article?A.Three. B.Four. C.Five. D.Six.2.Trade names are protected by law in many countries .A.to make companies pay for naming serviceB.to help people choose the best productsC.to present good images of the productsD.to prevent products from being copied3.What can we learn from the article?A.Many companies care about the cost of finding the right names.B.Creative trade names can help companies to have a larger sale.C.The government often does business with naming companies.D.It is considered necessary for cars to be named after animals.4.What is the best title for the article?A.The Importance of Right Brand Names B.The Rules of Naming BusinessC.The Development of Brand Names D.The Methods of Choosing NamesF18、Learning about the environment is very important. There are many good books that will help you learn. To get started, ask your teacher or a librarian for some suggestions. You can also look at some good websites with information about the environment and climate change. Climate change may be a big problem, but there are many little things we can do to make a difference.Driving a car or using electricity is not wrong. We just have to be smart about it. Some people use less energy by carpooling . For example, four people can ride together in one car instead of driving four cars to work. Whenever we use electricity, we put greenhouse gases (气体)into the air. By turning off lights, the television, and the computer when they aren't needed, you can help a lot.Don't buy products that use too much energy. Some products, like certain cars, are made specially to save energy. These cars can travel longer on a smaller amount of gasoline. They don't pollute as much, either. Products like computers, TVs, and VCRs with the ENERGY STAR label (标签) are made to save energy. Buying products with these labels will help protect the environment. Buy recyclable products instead of non-recyclable ones. Recyclable products are usually made out of things that have already been used. It usually takes less energy to make recyclable products than to make new ones. So when you go shopping, look for the recycle mark on the package-three arrows that make a circle. The less energy we use, the better.1.The passage is mainly written for .A.car producers B.school students C.parents2.The underlined word “carpooling” in Paragraph 2 most probably means .A.sharing a car B.pulling a car C.selling a car3.From the passage, we can learn that .A.turning off the electricity when it isn't needed can save a lot of energyB.electricity will cause great trouble to our environmentC.cars using less energy will not put greenhouse gases into the air4.If you use recyclable products instead of new ones, you can spend .A.more money B.less energy C.more energy5.Which of the following can be the writer's opinion?A.No pains, no gains.B.Rome was not built in one day.C.Little things can make a big difference.Ⅴ.书面表达19、书面表达南京阳光中学每年要接特来自世界各地的交流学生。
