It depends on how long you hold it. If I hold it for a minute, it is OK. If I hold it for an hour, I will have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you will have to call an ambulance (救护车).

But after a little practice he found that he was becoming very skilled and soon he was making some of the finest tacks.Old Mr. Smith died and the son on account of the war lost all his goods. He had to leave home and wasforced to live in another country. It so happened that in this village there were many shoemakers who were spending a lot of money buying tacks for their shoes and even at times when they paid high prices they were not always able to get what they wanted, because in that part of the country there was a high demand for soldiers’ shoes.Our young Mr. Smith, who was finding it difficult to earn his daily bread, remembered that once upon a time he had learned the art of making tacks and had the sudden idea of making a bargain with the shoemakers. He told them that he would make the tacks if they would help to get him settled in the workshop. The shoemakers were only too glad of the offer. And after a while, Mr. Smith found that he was soon making the finest tacks in the village.“How funny it seems,” he used to say, “even making tacks can make money.

Then, some people learned to grow crops and raise animals for food. They were the first farmers.From the sixteenth century on, the word “farm” has meant agricultural land. But a much older meaning of the word “farm” is linked to economics. The word “farm” comes from the Latin word “firma”, which means an unchanging payment. E xperts say the earliest meaning of the English word “farm” was a yearly payment made as a tax or rent.Farmers in early England did not own their land. They paid every year to use agricultural lands. In England, farmers used hawthorn trees along the edges of houses. They called this row of hawthorns a hedge. Hedging fields was how careful farmers marked and protected them. Soon, people began to use the word “hedging” to describe steps that could be taken to protect against financial loss. Hedging is common among gamblers who make large bets. A gambler bets a lot of money on one team. But, to be on the safe side, he also places a smaller bet on the other team, to reduce a possible loss.You might say that someone is hedging his bet when he invests in several different kinds of business. One business may fail, but likely not all. Farmers know that it is necessary to make hay while the sun shines. Hay has to be cut and gathered when it is dry. So a wise farmer never postpones gathering his hay when the sun is shining. Rain may soon appear. A wise person copies the farmer. He works when conditions are right.1.We can know from the 3rd paragraph that farmers in early England _________.A. had land of their ownB. paid to use hawthorn trees every yearC. used hedging fieldsD. often suffered from financial loss2.Which of the following is wise?A. A mother tries to sleep as soon as her baby is quietB. Hay has to be cut and gathered before it is dryC. Put off gathering hay when the sun is shiningD. Gather hay as it is rainy3.If a boy is carefully listening to his teacher in class, he learns to _________.A. become a wise farmerB. hedge his betC. gather his hayD. make hay while the sun shines答案：CAD6My grandfather is eighty years old. He always complains about how fast things have changed, and he often says that life used to be better."Families aren't what they used to be. A lot of families have broken up. If the husband and wife have problems with their marriage, they no longer stay together. And mothers used to stay at home and take care of their children, but now parents are both busy working. No one has time to look after children at home.And the cars! No one walks anymore. More and more people drive. We used to walk five miles to school on school days, even in winter. But now we don't. And in school, children don't have to think anymore. In math class, for example, we used to add, subtract, multiply and divide by using our heads. But now kids don't use their heads anymore. Instead, they use calculators.Most families have computers now. In the past we didn't have computers. We didn't even have lights. My mother used to spend all day cooking in the kitchen. But now we don't often eat home-cooked food.And people talk less to each other than before. They are too busy to talk, too busy to eat, too busy to think...Life used to be simple, but it isn't anymore."1. What does the grandfather think of the life now?A. It's as good as it used to beB. It's worse than it used to beC. It's better than it used to beD. It's the same as it used to be2. What does the underlined word "marriage" mean in Chinese?A. 生活B. 工作C. 婚姻D. 家庭3. What did the grandfather used to do?A. He used to use calculators in math classB. He used to drive to school in winterC. He used to go to school by bikeD. He used to walk five miles to school4. What changes have happened?①There are lights at home②People often eat home-cooked food now③Lots of families have computers④More and more people drive instead of walkingA. ①②④B. ②③④C. ①②③D. ①③④5. Which of the following is TURE?A. Life now is much simplerB. People have more time to talk with each other nowC. The grandfather only complains and pays no attention to the better life nowD. Lots of mothers still stay at home and look after their children.答案：BCCDC。

First, it,s very cheap to use a bike, and it,s quick too. You often wait for a bus for half an hour. When the bus comes, there are so many other buses and cars on the road that the bus moves very slowly. The underground train is quick but very expensive and often crowded.I traveled to work by bus for about four years. I often arrived at work late and tired. Then one day, about two years ago, a workmate said,“I go to work by bike, why don,t we travel together?”“Because my bike is old,”I answered,“and there are so many buses and cars on the road. I always feel frightened.”“You needn,t worry about this,”said my friend.“If you follow me and we ride slowly, you,ll be fine.”Although we went slowly, we arrived at work quickly. The bus ride took forty minutes and the bike ride took half an hour!The next day I bought myself a new bike. Now I don,t feel afraid. I love cycling to work, and I feel fit and well.Many people think in the same way as I do. That,s why you see a lot of bikes on the road. Who knows, perhaps in the future we,ll have roads for bicycles only. I hope so!1.What can we see on the road if we visit London now?2. The writer went to work three years ago.3.How long did it take the writer to go to work by bike?4.Is riding a bike good for our health?5. The writer hope we’ll have roads one day.。

阅读理解People used sundials(日晷) to tell the time in ancient times. It was very difficult to calculate time before the invention of clocks.The Chinese invented the first mechanical clock (机械钟) in 1088. One hundred andninety-five years later, the British invented the first clock in Europe. The Germans invented the alarm clock 67 years later.The Italians invented the first pocket watch in 1462. Early watches were different from today’s in two ways. First, they only had an hour hand. Second, you had to keep them in your pocket. People called them “pocket clocks”.The first wrist watches(腕表) came from Switzerland, 328 years after the first pocket clock was invented. But they did not become popular until a hundred years later.Digital(数码的) clocks and watches came from the US. Shops started to sell them in 1971. At that time, they were the newest invention in timekeeping.Today there are many kinds of watches. Some are very cheap, some are very expensive, and some can even speak and tell you the time! Clocks and watches have come a long way.1．The first clock in Europe was invented in ________.A．1383B．1293C．1283D．12732．The right match about the clock is ________.A．American— the alarm clockB．Germans—the first pocket watchC．British—The first wrist watchesD．Chinese—the first mechanical clock3．Which is true according to the passage?A．Chinese first invented the clock.B．The first pocket watch had two hands.C．The first wrist watches became popular very quickly.D．People used alarm clock to tell time in ancient times.4．The main idea of the last paragraph is ________.A．The watches are different in kindB．The price of the watches is differentC．Different people have different watchesD．The watches were invented in different countriesNumbers are used everywhere. In Chinese culture, some numbers are believed to be lucky or unlucky based on the Chinese characters that the numbers sound similar to.For example, the word for the number 8 sounds similar to the word for “making a fortune”. So, people consider it a very lucky number. Some people will even spend a lot of money having 8s in their phone numbers or vehicle license plate（车牌照）numbers. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics began at 8:08 p.m. on August 8, 2008.The number 9 is also a lucky number because of its connection to the emperors of China. There were nine dragons on emperors’ robes (龙袍) and Chinese myth held that the dragon had nine children. The number 9 also stands for “long-lasting”. That’s why a man always proposes to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.So what’s a “bad luck” number in Chia? It might be 4. Many Chinese people see 4 as a bad luck number because it sounds similar to the character for “death”.Because of this, many buildings skip the fourth floor and simply call it the fifth floor. In Hong Kong, some buildings even skip all floors numbered with 4.5．Which is not the reason why the number 9 is a lucky number?A．It also stands for “long-lasting”B．It was connected to the emperors of China.C．A man always proposes to a woman with 99 or 999 roses.D．It based on the Chinese characters the number 9 sounds similar to .6．We may not see the floor number_______ in the building in HongKong.A．18B．9C．14D．207．_______numbers are mentioned in the passage from one to nine?A．Two B．Three C．Four D．Five8．The main idea of the passage is _______.A．Why numbers are used everywhereB．What the numbers sound similar toC．What the numbers are in Chinese cultureD．What the lucky or unlucky numbers based onTina graduated from college.

Tina was surprised that the boss was not the old man who interviewed her several days ago. The boss gave her a lot of reports to write. But when she began to write, she found that she had much trouble understanding the reports. She spent almost the whole day trying to do the work. At 5:30 p.m., it was time to go home.Although most of the reports weren’t finished, she got into the lift. On the 10th floor, she met John, the old man who interviewed her several days ago. “Tina!” he said, “Why didn’t you work with us today?” All of a sudden, Tina realized she mistook the 11th floor for the 10th floor. “Oh, my God!” she answered, “______” After hearing this, John couldn’t help laughing.9．The underlined words “green hand” most probably mean a person ______.A．who wears in greenB．caring about the environmentC．doing well in gardeningD．without experience10．Tina was surprised because ________.A．her colleagues were not friendly to herB．she was given too many reports to writeC．the young boss wasn’t the man who interviewed herD．she went to the wrong floor11．Tina spent almost ______ to write the reports.A．the whole nightB．the whole morningC．the whole afternoonD．the whole day12．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Tina’s friend admired her only because she got a new job.B．The girls sitting near Tina were unfriendly to her.C．Tina arrived at the company at 5:30 a.m. on her first workday.D．Tina went to the 10th floor on that day.13．“________” can be the missing sentence in the passage.A．I forgot the interview date!B．I have finished all the reports!C．I have been in the wrong office all day!D．I forgot to finish the task.Computers are useful machines.

Parents buy computers for their children. They hope computers can help their children improve their studies. But many of the children use computers to play games, watch movies or chat, instead of studying. Many teachers and parents complain that computers make children fall behind. So many parents don’t allow their children to play computers again.In some other countries, even some scientists hate computers.

It will be up to people themselves.14．Why do we say the computer is a useful machine?A．Because it can help us a lot.B．Because it can help us to find jobs.C．Because we can use it to play games.D．Because our country asks us to learn it.15．What do many teachers and parents complain about?A．Computers let them lose their jobs.B．Computers make children fall behind.C．Computes bring people a lot of trouble.D．Their students and children use computers to play games.16．In this passage we know computers ______.A．are hated by peopleB．also bring us troubleC．bring us happiness onlyD．are bad for people’s health17．What does the underlined word “complain” mean?A．抱怨B．赞赏C．考虑D．解释Soon computers and other machines will be able to remember you by looking at your eyes! The programme works because everyone’s eyes are different. So in the future you won’t have to remember a number when you want to use a machine or take money out of a bank. You’ll just have to look at he machine and it will be able to tell who you are.The eye-recognition (眼睛识别) programme is already being tested in shops and banks in the USA, Britain, Spain, Italy and Turkey. Soon, this technology (技术) will take the place of (取代) all other ways of finding out who people are.However, scientists are working on other systems (系统). Machines will soon be able to know you from the shape of your face or hand or even your smell! We already have machines that can tell who you are from your voice or the mark made by your finger.Eye-recognition is better than other kinds because your eyes don’t change as you get older, or get dirty like hands or fingers. And even twins have different eyes, so the programme can be up to 94% correct, depending on how good the technology is. Some programmes may only be right 51% of the time. In Britain, it was found that 91% of people who had tried it said that they liked the idea of eye-recognition.In the future your computer will be looking you in the eye. So smile!18．In the near future, we don’t need carry our bank card because ________.A．there is no need for us toB．the machine read our eyesC．our eyes are quite differentD．our eyes has a special ability19．How many ways of finding people are mentioned in this passage?A．3B．4C．5D．620．What is the advantage of eye-recognition ?A．Eyes will never get older.B．Eyes will often get dirty.C．Eyes will not get dirty easily.D．Eyes will always be changing.21．What is the passage mainly about?A．People are very afraid of the eye-recognition.B．People are very interested in eye-recognition.C．Scientists are doing something about recognition.D．Scientists are finding out new ways of recognition.Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there, whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible. Her window was clean! Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings? Since then, when I wanted to judge someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my dirty window?” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.22．When the author couldn’t see the woman through the window, ________.A．he worried about her B．he was a little disappointedC．he thought she should have cleaned it D．he wanted to help her clean it23．The writer couldn’t see everything clearly through the window because _________.A．the woman’s window was dirty B．the writer’s window was dirtyC．the woman lived nearby D．the writer was near sighted24．The underlined sentence “It dawn on me” probably means _________.A．I began to understand it B．it cheered me upC．I could see myself in the window D．it began to get light25．What does the author want to tell us?A．One shouldn’t criticize others very often.B．One should often make his windows clean.C．One must judge himself before he judges others.D．One mustn’t judge a person through his dirty window.Now I am a businessman. When I was in high school, I lost my wallet. I needed gas for my old car. After I paid for the gas, I left my wallet on the bumper (保险杠) and drove away. After some time, the phone rang and a man asked me if I lost my wallet. I checked my bag and found it wasn’t there. Then he told me where to pick up my wallet and asked me to come to get it. I thanked him about 10 times for finding my wallet. While I didn’t want to insult (侮辱) him by giving him some money, I really felt like giving something. So I asked him if there was anything I could do for him,and he said, “Just pass it on.”It was about 10 years later that I picked up a wallet too. I almost stepped (踩) on it! It took me several days to find the owner of the wallet. It was a young man. He lived in another state, about 60 miles away from where I found the wallet. When I returned his wallet, he was surprised that his money was still in the wallet and he tried to hand me $2,000. I told him, “No, thanks, but just pass it on.” “Yes, I will,” he said.26．Why did the writer NOT give the man any money to thank him?A．Because the man was very rich.B．Because the man stole the writer’s wallet.C．Because the writer didn’t want to insult him.D．Because there was no money in the writer’s wallet.27．What does the man mean by “Just pass it on”?A．He wanted the author to take good care of the wallet.B．He wanted the author to give the wallet to him.C．He wanted the author to go home.D．He wanted the author to pass on the kindness to others.28．What happened to the writer about ten years later?A．He lost his car.B．He stepped on a wallet.C．He lost his wallet again.D．He picked up a wallet too.29．How long did it take the writer to find the owner of the wallet?A．Several minutes.B．Several hours.C．Several days.D．Several weeks.30．What can we know from the last paragraph?A．The writer accepted the young man’s money.B．The young man would help others like the writer.C．The writer was angry with the young man.D．The writer bought another wallet later.Known as “Super Dan”, China’s badminton player Lin Dan is one of the greatest badminton players in history. Four months ago, Lin announced (宣布) his retirement (退役) through his personal Weibo account. Here is what he wrote:From 2000 to 2020, I’ve been through four Olympics and I never thought about stopping my career before. But now it’s time for me to say goodbye. And it’s actually so hard for me.At nearly 37 years old, my physical condition won’t allow me to fight with my teammates anymore. In the future, I wish to spend more time with my family.I want to thank my country that nurtured (养育) me, my coaches (教练) who trained me, my family who always stayed with me, my fans who supported me and my opponents (对手) who encouraged me to be better.

When you think back on it, you might think of many of your happy times. But how do you store these things in your mind? By using your memory. Memory is the ability to remember things. Memorizing happens in a special area in our brain. When something happens, your brain records (记录) the important information and puts it in that area. That is what we call “memory”.Scientists say that there are two kinds of memory—shortterm memory and longterm memory. Your shortterm memory can only last for a few seconds to a few minutes. But longterm memory is able to save information for a long period of time. People usually remember with shortterm memory, and then forget things quickly after they experience them. They learn about something one day, but forget half of it the next day. A week later, they remember just a third of what they have learnt. So people forget things easily without memorizing again and again.Scientists agree that people remember things in different ways. Some remember things betterwith the help of pictures. Others remember better when they take in the information by hearing it. But one thing is for sure, if you remember things with different ways together, you can get a better result. For example, try imaging pictures with English words, and at the same time listening to recordings of the words. Maybe studying English won’t be a difficult thing.36．The underlined word “store” in Paragraph 1 means ________.A．keep B．carry C．discuss D．imagine 37．What can we learn about the long-term memory from the passage?A．Long-term memory is the most important way of memorizing.B．Long-term memory lasts shorter than short-term memory.C．Long-term memory can save information about one week.D．People can get long-term memory by memorizing again and again.38．According to the scientists, how can people remember things better?A．By connecting sounds with pictures.B．By taking in information with smell.C．By connecting pictures with English words.D．By remembering with the help of pictures and sounds.39．What is the passage mainly about?A．Some different types of memory.B．Some difficulties in learning English. C．Some interesting facts about memory.D．Some ways to improve memory.40．In which section of the newspaper would you probably read this article?A．Fashion.B．Sports.C．Science.D．Stories.参考答案1．C2．D3．A4．A【导语】本文主要介绍了钟表的起源和历史。

On the trip, they visited places like India, Iran, and Afghanistan.When Tony and Maureen arrived in Australia, people asked many questions about their trip.

The tree answered back by not protecting the vegetables from the hot sun, so they began to dry up. Soon the vegetables were really weak, and the tree was drying up.The gardener wondered why and stopped watering them. When he did that, both the tree and the vegetables realized that it was better to help each other. They learned how to live in harmony with those around them.

Parents buy computers for their children.They hope computers can help them improve(提高) their studies in school. Yet many of the children use computers to play games, to watch video or to sing Karaoke instead of studying. So many teachers and parents complain that computers can not help children to study but make them fall behind. So computers are locked by parents in the boxes.In some other countries, even some scientists hate computers.
