In front of them was an old man. He walked with difficulty. Just as they passed him, the wind blew the old man’s hat off up the street, but the old man was not able to run after it.“Stop it, my boys, please, and help me pick up my hat,”cried the old man. “I am afraid I am not able to do that.”But the boys didn’t run after the hat, but only laughed. They thought it was interesting to see how the old man caught the hat. Just then a little girl named Lucy Smith was on her way to the same school. As soon as she saw this, she ran at once and caught the hat. Then she brought it to the old man. And before she gave it to him, she carefully cleaned it. “Thank you, my dear,” the old man said as he took his hat from her. “Thank you for your help.”The boys and the girl went on to school. But the teacher had seen all this. When lessons were over, he called the children together and told them all about the old man’s hat. Then he went to his desk and took out a beautiful picture book. He gave it to the little girl for what she did. The two boys’faces turned red and they felt sorry.True or False. (5分)( ) 1. The story happened on a fine Sunday.( ) 2.

However, the real movie capital is Mumbai, in India. Mumbai is used to be known as Bombay, and so the movie industry there is called “Bollywood”. Bollywood makes twice as many movies each year as Hollywood—more than 800 films a year.The movies from Bollywood are very different from Hollywood movies. For one thing, Bollywood movies are much longer than most Hollywood movies. Most Bollywood movies are more than three hours long, and contain(包含) singing, dancing, action, adventure, mystery, and romance. Because Bollywood movies contain so many different features, this style of movie is sometimes called a “masala”(混合调味料) movie.Bollywood actors are very popular and some are in such high demand that they may work on several movies at the same time. They may even shoot scenes for several films on the same day, using the same costumes and scenery. Since most Bollywood movies follow the same kind of story, shooting scenes for several films at the same time is not a big problem for actors or directors. This also helps keep the cost of Bollywood movies lower than the cost of Hollywood movies.Choose the best answer. (5分)( ) 1. Which is NOT true about Mumbai?A. It is the movie capital.B. The new name is Bombay.C. More movies are made there than in Hollywood.D. It is less expensive to make movies there than in Hollywood. ( ) 2. Why are Bollywood films often called “masala” films?A. They have spicy stories.B. They show Indian culture.C. They are much longer than Hollywood films.D. They mix different styles in movies.( ) 3. Bollywood movies are cheap to make because .A. they are shorter than Hollywood moviesB. they are different kinds of moviesC. the movies do not use any special effectsD. each movie reuses actors and things from other movies( ) 4. Which of these statements would the writer probably agree with?A. Hollywood movies are too violent.B. It takes a lot of money to make a good movie.C. Only Indian people can understand Bollywood movies.D. Most Bollywood movies are very similar.( ) 5. What is the main topic of the reading?A. Famous stars in Bollywood.B. How Hollywood movies are made.C. The differences between two movie industries.D. The history of movie-making in India.DWorking today is very different from the way it was fifty or even twenty years ago. In the past, most people got up early in the morning, travelled to their offices by bus, train or car, worked eight 1 a day and travelled home again.In today’s world, many companies are changing this 2of working. More and more people work at home. This means that they 3travel to offices every day. This is possible, of course, because of technology like the Internet, the fax and video telephones where you can see other people when you talk to them. These telephones also let you talk to many people at the same time. The money is the same, but there is 4 wasted on travel.Is it better or worse than working in an office? Well, if you work at home and your neighbour doesn’t, when he is 5the office at 7:00, you are getting up. He is sitting in his car at 7:30, and you are drinking a cup of coffee and checking e-mails. At 8:00, when your neighbour is arriving at the office, you are taking a shower. After that, you have 6and begin your day’s work.At lunchtime you are not very hungry, so you decide to continue working.You work until about 4:00, check your e-mails and then relax.

It will tell you not only what a word means, but also h2it is used. A dictionary needs to be printed again about every ten years. Language keeps on d3and a good dictionary must show these new changes. A new English dictionary will tell you how most people use the language today. It will not tell you what is r4 or wrong. It may tell you the right time to use a word. If only a few people use a word, a dictionary will either tell you this or not list it. Every dictionary will tell you many interesting facts. If you type a word and the word is too long, look it u5in your dictionary. All dictionaries show you where to break a word and they a6show you how a word is spoken. Every dictionary, of course, tells you what a word means. But some words, like “get”or “take”, may have dozens of m7.FHow much do you know about Peking Opera(京剧)? Do you listen to it? Do you go to see it? Anyway, in the near future, you may be learning how to perform it at school.To promote(提倡) traditional culture among young people, this year, about 200 schools around China will make Peking Opera a compulsory (必修的) course. Most students think it’s a good idea. Han Lang, a14-year-old Beijinger, especially welcomes it. “We don’t need to be Peking Opera experts,”said Han, “but it’s a good idea to know something about a traditional art.”But students like Ji Xuan are not as enthusiastic(热心的) as Han. The 14-year-old Shanghai girl said the idea is bad. But if she had a choice, she’d prefer to study Jinju Opera (晋剧), a local art of Shanxi. “Tastes differ from place to place,”Said Jin. “Peking Opera should be taught only in Beijing.”Some other students, however, don’t care what kind of opera they learn. They only care about learning. “Learning Peking Opera won’t be an easy job,”said Ding Peiqi, a 14-year-old Shanghai girl. “I hope it can be taught in a funny and exciting way. If not, we won’t become interested in it.”Answer the questions. (5分)1. Where may you be learning Peking Opera?____________________________________________2.

One possible version:Unforgettable events in 2008The year of 2008 is coming to its end. A lot of things happened in the year. The terrible earthquake happened in May in Wenchuan was a big disaster for all the Chinese people. The Olympic Games were held successfully in Beijing in August. Both events proved that China is a powerful country. Under the leadership of the government, Chinese people can not only overcome big difficulties but also achieve great success. As a teenager, I am greatly moved by what has happened in 2008. I have learnt that I should get ready to help others when they are in troubles. I have also learnt that I must try to be an excellent person in order to do more for our country in the future!。
