If the friend is not free then ask them to try to find time for your party.It you're going to have a big party, and need to ask lots of people to your party, you must decide how many people you want at your party. Then you can write a list of them and send them beautiful invitation cards, because you may not have so much time to give them a call each. You must send the cards a few days before the party so that they can have enough time to prepare for it.1.If you're having a small party, how many ways can you use to ask your friends?。

Last Thursday, we were going to buy lunch for the beggars (乞丐) in the street. I ordered 15 lunches from McDonald’s and decided to deliver them.We enjoyed what we saw in the street: a surprised and happy person holding up his lunch bag. Then we noticed a small old woman asking for food. We handed her our final lunch bag. As we got into the car, she started to speak to us. “No one has ever done anything like this for me before,” she said with a smile. “Well, I’m glad that we were the first,” I replied. “So, when will you eat your lunch?” I asked. She just looked at me with her huge, tired brown eyes and said, “Oh, honey, I’m not going to eat this lunch. You see, I have a little girl. I usually can’t afford to buy her the food she enjoys. But tonight s he will be so happy!”I don’t know if the woman noticed the tears(泪水) in my eyes. I have questioned many times whether our acts of kindness were too small to make a difference.

I wasn’t too lonely — I had my cat to play with, and I visited some of my friends around the city.Traveling is fun from time to time. But it’s also nice to just stay at home and relax.

There are a lot of new buildings now, but many of the old buildings are still there. In Weld Quay, a really old place in Georgetown, we saw the houses of the Chinese traders from 100 years ago. I wonder what life was like here in the past. I really enjoyed walking around the town.Tuesday, July 16thWhat a difference a day makes! My father and I decided to go to Penang Hill today. We wanted to walk up to the top, but then it started raining a little, so we decided to take the train. We waited over an hour for the train because there were too many people.

I have just turned 50, but I look like a person of 85. I have serious kidney (肾脏) problems because I don’t have enough water to drink. I’m afraid I don’t have much time left to live. I am already one of the oldest people in this society.I remember when I was five years old, everything was very different. There were lots of trees in the parks. I could enjoy a shower for half an hour. At that time, women had beautiful hair. Now, we have to shave (剃) our heads to keep them clean without the use of water.I remember there were “Save Water” warnings in many public places, but nobody paid attention. We believed water would last forever. Now, all the rivers and lakes are either dry or polluted. Water is much more expensive than gold and diamonds.Without water, almost all factories are closed. Most people lose their jobs. Those who have a job work in desalination (脱盐) factories and are paid with drinkable water rather than with money.In the past, doctors suggested adults drink eight glasses of water a day. Nowadays, I am only allowed half a glass. Most people are weak. Young people in their early 20s look as if they were in their 40s.Because there are few trees, we don’t have enough oxygen. We have to pay for air. The air isn’t very fresh, but at least we can breathe. Poor people die young. The average (平均的) life expectancy is 40 years.When my son asks me about my childhood, I tell him about how pleasant it was to fish in the rivers and howhealthy people were. When he asks, “Why is there no clean water now?” I feel guilty. I belong to the generation who turned a blind eye to all the warnings.I wish this letter could go back in time and that it would make people living in the 2020s truly understand the importance of saving water.Best,Natalie 20．According to the writer, people keep their heads clean by _________ in the year 2070.A．getting their hair cut B．washing them oftenC．drinking enough water D．wearing hats every day21．The writer shows the water problem is serious by _________.A．telling stories B．listing numbersC．asking questions D．making comparisons22．The underlined word “guilty” probably means _________.A．angry B．sorry C．worried D．surprised23．By writing this letter, the writer mainly wants to ________.A．introduce the life in 2070 B．explain why people get sickC．warn people to save water D．tell her son about her childhood第7篇Soap operas and sitcoms are two kinds of popular TV shows. What are the differences between them?A soap opera is usually very long and has many episodes (集). All the episodes of a soap opera are interconnected. The first soap opera was on radio in the early 1920s. One of the most famous soap operas is Gossip Girl.A sitcom, or a situation comedy, is a set of funny stories. These stories all happen in a small place, like a house or a workplace. Sitcoms are different from soap operas. Each story in a sitcom is a different one and sitcoms make people feel happy.

In Japan, however, people work about 2, 159 hours a year. That means a Japanese worker works 513 more hours a year than a French worker.Why do people work so many hours? Some people work extra hours because they want to make more money. However, many com panies don’t pay overtime. Their workers don’t get more pay for more work.

We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorten than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively short period of time, so we may think that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brain a great deal. Even so, we will make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and finally we shall need large ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, especially the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over very long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to (倾向于) make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body totally as time goes by because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald(秃顶的).Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same. Although all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.43．The passage mainly tells us that ________.A．man’s life will be different from in the futureB．future man will look quite different from usC．man is growing taller and uglier as time passesD．the functions of man’s organs(器官) will function as well as today44．Which of the following serves as the proof(证据) that man is changing?A．Man’s hair is getting thinner and thinner.B．Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.C．Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.D．Man’s arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.45．The change in man’s size of forehead is probably because ________A．he makes use of only 20% of the brain’s capacity.B．the other 80% of his brain will grow in due(预定的) time.C．his brain has grown larger over the past centuries.D．he will use his brain more and more as time goes on.46．Which of the following is true about a human being in the future?A．He thinks and feels in different way.B．He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.C．He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.D．His fingers grow weaker because he doesn’t use them.47．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A．future life is always predictable(可预测的)B．human beings hope for a change in the future lifeC．human beings will became less attractive in the futureD．less use of a bodily organ may lead to its degeneration(衰退)第12篇Let’s suppose it is a common day of 2060. Of course, things have changed and life is very different.Trips to the Moon are being made every day. Taking a holiday on the Moon today is as easy as taking a holiday in Europe in 2016. At a number of scenic spots (风景胜地) on the Moon, many hotels have been built. In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Moon, every room has at least one picture window.What are people eating now? People are still eating food. But many foods now come in pill form, and the food that goes into the pill comes mainly from green plants.Farming, of course, is very highly developed. Very few people have to work on the farm. It is possible to run the farm by just using a few computers.People are now largely vegetarians, and they eat only bread, vegetables, fruit and so on and they don’t eat meat or fish. You see, as the number of people increases, the number of animals decreases. So people have to be vegetarians. We are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds, and we know how to deal with all kinds of illness. No one has to be ill any more.Such would be our life in 2060.48．The passage mainly talks about________.A．trips to the Moon in 2060 B．developed farming in 2060C．what our lives would be like in 2060 D．what people would eat in 206049．We are healthier because of the following EXCEPT________.A．what we eat is green food B．we can treat any illnessC．we are largely vegetarians D．we run the farm by using computers第13篇Your summer vacation is coming.

What can they see?A．Embroidery works. B．Many volunteers.C．New inventions on saving food. D．Painting and calligraphy works.第14篇Jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system and is made up of many different kinds of gases. It is so big that 1,300 Earths could fit inside Jupiter! And it has 79 moons. Some of its moons are like small planets, and others are pieces of rock and ice. Studying Jupiter’s moons has helped scientists learn more about the solar system. But the moon that scientists are most interested in is Europa.The conditions on Europa make it the most likely place beyond Earth to have life in our solar system. It is covered in a layer of ice, and some scientists believe a liquid (流动的) ocean lies under the icy surface. If this is true, Europa may have simple forms of life in these oceans. The creatures on Europa would probably be too small to see without a microscope (显微镜). But the idea of anything at all living on Europa is very exciting.Right now, we cannot explore Europa because it is too cold and too far away to send people there. The spacecrafts and robots we have are not dependable enough to land on the surface. But scientists have big plans. In the future, they hope to send one robot to melt (融化) some of the ice on Europa’s surface, and another robot to swim through its oceans. The information that these robots gather could help find out whether there is life in Europa’s oceans.If we eventually find some form of life on Europa, then it is almost certain that life formed independently in two places around the same star. If so, it would be reasonable to believe that life springs up in the universe quite easily once there are the necessary ingredients, and that life might be found throughout our galaxy (银河系), and the universe. If life were found on Europa, how might it change your view of the universe and our place in it? 54．What is the passage mostly about?A．Life on Europa. B．Jupiter’s many moons.C．Scientists’ search for new life.D．The problem with exploring outer space.55．What does the underlined “moon” mean in Pa ragraph 1?A．月球B．恒星C．行星D．卫星56．Europa is best described as ________.A．cool and dry B．icy and mysteriousC．warm and full of life D．cold and uninteresting57．Which of these explains why scientists think life could exist on Europa?A．Europa is one of Jupiter’s 79 moons.B．Jupiter is the solar system’s largest planet.C．Europa has a layer of ice that may have liquid below it.D．The creatures would be too small to see without a microscope.58．What can we infer from the passage?A．Scientists are most interested in Europa because of its size.B．Scientists will not be able to explore Europa until people are sent there.C．If creatures found on Europa were too small, scientists would be disappointed.D．If life were found on Europa, it might change man’s vi ew of his place in the universe.第15篇59．Thanksgiving Day often comes on ________.A．October 31st B．December 25th C．the fourth Thursday in November 60．Of all the festivals above, ________ comes last in a year.A．Christmas Day B．Thanksgiving Day C．Halloween61．From the form we know that Boy’s Day is celebrated in ________.A．Western countries B．the USA C．Japan参考答案1．A2．B 3．B4．B 5．A 6．C 7．B8．B 9．A 10．D 11．C 12．B13．A 14．C 15．A16．A 17．D 18．C 19．D20．A 21．D 22．B 23．C 24．B25．B26．A27．C28．A29．A30．B31．C32．C33．A34．D35．A36．B37．C38．D39．B40．D41．B42．A43．B44．C45．D46．C47．D48．C49．D50．D51．B52．A53．D54．C55．D56．B57．C58．D59．C60．A61．C答案第1页，共1页。
