We still have plenty of time.But on a day after her 14th birthday, she passed out （昏倒）and was rushed to the hospital.The family learned that the girl had a serious heart disease and that she might die. At night, she asked her dad, "Daddy, have they told you that I am going to die？" The father replied, "No, you will live as long as anyone else."She wondered and asked,"How can you be sure？"He smiled to her and said,"I just know it. "After the girl turned 15，she had a heart transplant（心脏移植手术）.After she came back from the hospital, she found a letter on her bed It said, "My dearest daughter, one day you asked me what I would give you for your 15th birthday.I wasn't sure then. But now you know that my present to you is my heart. "The father had given his heart to his daughter.Parents are selfless（无私的）.They even make great sacrificesto make their children grow up happily. Keep this in mind when you feel angry toward your parents. Always. they're just doing what they think best for you. 21．The girl had a heart disease when she was ____ years old.A．11B．14C．15D．1622．Why did the father say that the girl would live as long as anyone else？____A．Because he was a doctor.B．Because he lied to his daughter.C．Because the girl's disease was not serious.D．Because he would try his best to save his daughter.23．What gift did the father give to his daughter for her 15th birthday？____A．His heart.B．A letter.C．Lots of money.D．A birthday party.24．The underlined word"sacrifices"means ____ in Chinese.A．限制B．交易C．供给D．牺牲25．What's the best title for the passage？____A．How to deal with a heart disease.B．Don't be afraid of death.C．A special present from a father.D．Death is not so scary.阅读选择These days，it seems that many people are trying to live more with less.They throw away the less-used things，or some things that are not necessary.They are discovering the pleasure of spending their time and money on things that matter most.Here are some advantages of living simply.●More free timeThe more things you own，the more time you will spend keeping them in order.Just keep the things you use or enjoy.You'll be surprised at how much time you'll have to do what you really want to do.Care for fewer things，and spend more time with friends and family.●Money savedAs you stop buying things you don't need，your finances（经济状况）will be better.You can save some money and take a special trip instead.Learn to reward（奖励）yourself with rich experiences.●Changed valuesOnce you break the habit，your values will change.You will realize that things don't bring lasting happiness.True happiness comes from making memories with loved ones.Living simply lowers your stress，betters your health and allows you to find out what's important.Try to discover the peace and happiness this way of living can bring.Don't wait for a holiday to start living simply.Start today，and you will find that less is more.26．According to the text，how many advantages of living simply？____A．One.B．Two.C．Three.D．Four.27．What can you do to reward yourself according to the text？____A．Buy more things.B．Care for more things.C．Keep things in order.D．Take a special trip.28．Where does true happiness come from？____A．Making memories with loved ones.B．Throwing away all the used things.C．Changing all your values and habits.D．Waiting for a long holiday to enjoy.29．If people live simply，they will ____ .A．have more stress B．improve their healthC．lose the peace D．break the habits30．What does the writer mainly want to tell us？____A．To enjoy free time.B．To save more money.C．To discover happiness.D．To live with less.阅读选择Are you siting more than ever？Take a moment to think about your sitting activities.You're probably sitting while reading this.Sometimes you sit when you are driving or at ending a meeting.Other times you sit when you watch a movie or play computer games.That undoubtedly a lot of sitting.The fact is，the amount of tie spent sitting has increased over time.As of today，an adult will spend 56-86% of their daily times sitting.We know sitting too much is bad，and most of us naturally feel a little guilty（内疚的）after a long-time TV watching.But what exactly goes wrong when we park ourselves for nearly 8 hours a day？A study on nearly 8，000 adults suggests that there's a direct relationship between the tie spent siting and our risk of early death of any cause.As the total sitting time increases，so does the risk of early death."Sit less，move more" is what the Heart Association encourages us to do.But this guideline is just too simple and abstract（抽象的）to make a difference.It is like telling someone to just "exercise" without telling them how.Exercise guidelines are always more practical.For example，the Center for Disease Control advises adults to do exercise for two hours and 30 minutes every week，plus muscle strengthening activities two or more days a week.We need similar guidelines for sitting.To make up the weakness，a research team is working on more specific guidelines. "It would probably be like this：for every 30 continuous minutes of sitting，standup and move or walk for five minutes at a quick pace，" Diaz，the lead researcher said，adding that the study has put us a step closer to the satisfying（满意的）guidelines.But more researches are needed to confirm（证实）their ways.31．Which of the following is NOT a sitting activity？____A．Driving.B．Watching a movie.C．Playing computer games.D．Walking around.32．What does the writer tell us in Paragraph 2？____A．The bad influence of sitting too much.B．The feelings of sitting too much.C．The time and ways of exercising.D．The weakness of the guidelines.33．What does the underlined phrase " similar guidelines" probably mean in Paragraph 3？____ A．simple guidelines.B．abstract guidelines.C．practical guidelines.D．personal guidelines.34．What can we learn from the last paragraph？____A．The guidelines are already good enough.B．Diaz is quite satisfied about the guidelines.C．More researches are needed to better the guidelines.D．Exercise guidelines are too difficult to use.35．The passage can be read in the part of ____ in a newspaper.A．culture B．health C．business D．history阅读选择Jane knows the value of a good doll（玩具娃娃）. "Dolls have a power we don't completely under and，" she sad.She got this while working as a social worker using dolls to help her young kids adapt to（适应）their changing medical situations.Many of the kids saw themselves in those do.But for the kids missing a lamb（肢体）or who had lost their hair，there were none they could relate to（与......相关）.Seven years ago，when a friend said that her niece was an albinism（白化病）girl，Jane Davi，now 49，knew what might help the youth through this challenging period. "It's hard to tell a kid，'You are perfect the way you are' and to build confidence that way，" she says.Jane Davis wanted to change that.She made a doll by hand-using fabric（布料）and markers that looked like the child and sent it off.Being moved and deeply thankful to Jane's kindness，the friend posted a photo online of the happy child and the doll.Soon another woman asked Jane to make a doll that looked like her baby，who was missing a leg.Word spread，and soon Jane was making dolls for children with scars（伤疤），birthmarks，physical disabilities，in short，a doll that looked like them.She left her job and started a nonprofit（非盈利的）organization，A Doll Like Me.Working out of her home in Milwaukee，from photos sent by parents or care-givers，it takes Jane nearly seven hours to make each doll.A Go Fund Me web page helps her offset costs and allows her to donate（捐赠）her services.She hasn't charged for（为......收费）a doll since she began her nonprofit.In all，she's made more than 400 dolls.The waiting list is so long，but Jane never gives up.As she explains on her Go Fund Me page，"Every kid，regardless of gender，race，age，medical issue，or body type，shouldlook into the sweet face of a doll and see

up too late and get up too early to prepare for work.These people have little motivation（动力）once they arrive ziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things.By adjusting（调节）your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest，you can fight laziness throughout the day.Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active.Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task.Others take a more proactive approach（主动方式），viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. 52．.Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations（诱惑）that surround them.A television in the living room may provide entertainment（娱乐活动），but watching too much TV often leads to laziness.53．.Complete a few tasks and reward（奖励）yourself with what you enjoy，such as a good dinner or a film.Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home.Couples and children may all have different energy levels，but laziness can be spread if not being dealt with immediately. 54． .Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal.Others in the home may finally follow your example and practice their own task.It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.55．.Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle，thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.看图写话A：56．？B：Because I think they are interesting.A：How does Tom usually go to school？B：57．.A：Is your grandmother watching TV？B：No，she isn't. 58．.A：59．B：It was invented in

It stood out among big and old coats. It was so beautiful and had a unbelievable price, $28. I looked at my son and we both said nothing, but John’s eyes shone. Dark, woolen coats were popular with teenage boys, but new ones could cost several hundred dollars. This coat was even better. John tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. It fit him so well.John wore the coat to school the next day. After he came home, I asked, “ Did the kids like your coat?”“They love it,” he said with a big grin.Over the next few weeks, John changed. He was polite, less argumentative(争辩的), more thoughtful, and much happier. “Good dinner, Mom,” he would say every evening. Without a word of complaining, he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, John, who always put things off, said, “You’re right. I guess I will.” When I mentioned this change to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him.John and I both know we should never judge a person by his clothes. But it is true that when wearing beautiful and suitable clothes, we may try to be better in thought, speech and behavior to match what is on the inside to what is on the outside.4．What can we learn from the 1st paragraph?A．The price of the coat was too high.B．John liked the coat very much. C．They often went shopping together.D．The writer didn’t want to buy the coat. 5．What does the underlined word “grin” mean?A．A wide smile.B．A worried look.C．An upset voice.D．An angry mood.6．What did John used to do when he was asked to study?A．Study at once.B．put off his homework.C．Work hard on school work.D．Carry in wood for the stove. 7．What does the writer want to say through this passage?A．What we wear could help what we are.B．Life is full of possibilities when we are young.C．We shouldn’t judge people by their appearance.D．It’s a good choice to try different things in our lives.Chopsticks are pairs of sticks with the same length that have been used as kitchenware in most of eastern Asian regions for over three thousand years. According to the relevant historical resources, the first chopsticks were thought to appear in China over 5,000 years ago. During the Spring and Autumn Period, chopsticks made of copper and iron developed gradually. Later the chopsticks with coating came in the Han Dynasty. Then gold and silver chopsticks followed.Different materials have been used to make chopsticks until now, among which the most expensive ones are made of elephant tusks and the green stone. Those showed how wealthy the owners were.It was said that silver chopsticks would turn black immediately if they touched poisoned food (but we know it was wrong today), so in history many kings and emperors used silver chopsticks to check whether the food was bad for them or not before eating. Chopsticks are also regarded as gifts to others. In China, chopsticks are traditionally given to a daughter when she marries to hope that they will have a child very soon, because the pronunciation of word “chopsticks” in Chinese is like “quick child”. Meanwhile, people often believe chopsticks have something to do with good luck. So many families will choose to put new chopsticks on the table at dinner on New Year’s Eve as a way of wishing for luck while dropping chopsticks is a sign of bad luck to come.It’s believed that using chopsticks can increase fingers’ flexibility. That means if we use chopsticks frequently at dinner, it will make our fingers do everything freely. Some experts also prove that it can improve memory. Many westerners, businessmen and tourists put their knives and forks beside the bowls and plates but choose chopsticks in China.8．What does the underlined word “Those” refer to?A．The chopsticks in ancient times B．The chopsticks with coating C．Elephant tusks and green stone chopsticks D．Different materials used for making chopsticks9．Why did kings and emperors in history use silver chopsticks to have dinner?A．They tried to avoid being killed by poisoned food.B．They meant to show their wealth and power.C．Silver sticks can bring them “quick child”.D．Silver sticks are good for their health. 10．What can be inferred from the passage?A．Chopsticks can always bring the owners luck and good fortune.B．Chopsticks are not only eating tools but also a part of culture.C．Western businessmen and tourists are used to using chopsticks.D．Using chopsticks frequently will improve people’s health condition.11．What is this article mainly about?A．The advantages of using chopsticks.B．The development of chopsticks in China.C．Some stories and meanings behind chopsticks.D．Different materials used in making chopsticks.Have you ever stared at a map of the world and thought why it looks like this? If you have, you are not alone.The Continents and OceansA Brave GuessIn the late 1800s, a scientist named Alfred Wegener was interested in studying the map. He came up with a brave guess. He thought that all the continents once formed one huge land.A single large ocean was around this super-continent.Floating “ Ships”Why do the continents look this way? Scientists believe that natural forces under the earth make the continents move and form the lands and oceans this way.Over many, many centuries, slowly, the super-continent broke into two continents. One of them began to move to the north. Then it broke again, forming North America, Europe, and Asia. The gap between North America and Europe became part of the Atlantic Ocean.The second continent also broke apart to form South America, Africa, Australia, and Antarctica. The continents were like floating ships at sea, moving to where they are nowadays.Finding EvidenceIt sounds unbelievable, but scientists have found evidence to support the guess. Firstly, it is the fossils. Ancient plants and animals of the same type were discovered both in South America and in Africa. Did they develop at the same time in two faraway places? It seems unlikely. Biologists believe that there must have been land bridges or other land connections that are unseen now.The coastlines of the continents also seem to fit together. The east coast of South America can fit into the lower west coast of Africa. The east coast of North America matches parts of Africa and Europe’s coasts. It seems as if they fit together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle(拼图).Mountain rocks help explain the truth, too.

On Dec 1st, 2017, China carried out its first national standards for the use of English in public service areas. People’s Daily reported.The standards include more than 3, 500 Chinese—to—English translations in 13 areas, including transportation. sports and education. This means that many Chinese words will now have standard English names.For example, the English words for the Chinese dishes huntun and lamian are “wonton” and “lamian noodles”. For kaochuan and mixian, the English names are “barbecue” and “rice noodles”.As for places, shaoniangong is called “children’s palace”. The entertainment activity nongjiale that we enjoy in rural areas is called “agritainment”. There are also many English warning phrases, like “wet floor” for xiaoxindihua and “mind your head” for dangxinpengtou.The standards are part of a larger effort China is making to improve English information. Many cities have already fixed signs with poor English translations. In 2015, Shanghai opened a 12345 hotline for people to report incorrect translations.4．Which of the following is correct about the national standards?A．They will be carried out on Jan 1st.B．They are China’s first translation dictionaries.C．They have 3, 500 English-to-Chinese translations.D．They give many Chinese words standard English names.5．Which is the translation for “spicy hot pot”?A．malatang B．lamian C．hundun D．kaochuan 6．We can tell from the story that agritainment is _______.A．a rural place B．an entertainment activityC．a warning sign D．a place for kids7．Why did China come out with these standards?A．To improve other countries’ images.B．To teach English speakersC．To fix incorrect English.D．To help more people learn English.Do you feel lonely when your best friend isn’t around? Here’s our advice to you-and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes.It’s hard when a best friend isn’t around-maybe because he or she moved to a different school or a different class. You may feel left out during breaks or lunchtime. You want to make new friends, but how do you find them? Maybe it seems like everybody else already has friends. But remember, there’s always room for more friends.Start by looking around your classroom-think about which kids you’d like to play with during break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation （欣赏）to them. Invite someone to play with you or say “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom. When you’re at break, walk over to kids you want to play with, act friendly, and say “Hi, may I join you?” or just join in.If you have trouble doing this or if you’re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching people up. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Being kind, being friendly, sharing, saying nice things, offeringhelp-pretty soon, you’ll have one, two or even more new friends.You might still miss that special best friend. But when you see each other again, you can share something you didn’t have before he or she left. You can introduce him or her to your new friends!8．What does the underlined phrase “feel left out” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．feel homesick B．feel alone C．leave home alone D．be hungry 9．Which are good ways to make friends?a.

The school, located northwest of London, is about 50 acres（英亩）with several main school buildings. Living in a different culture is a completely new experience for me.My daily schedule is very regular. At 7:30 each morning, we get up and put on our school uniforms. We wear a suit, tie and leather shoes quite different from the casual（休闲的）style of Chinese uniforms. Each house has a different-colored tie, and there are other special ties to stand for different grades in school.Instead of morning reading time, we have tutor time when we discuss in-school problems with our tutors. We usually have five lessons in the morning; each lesson is about40 minutes with a 20-minute break in between the third and fourth lessons. Unlike most Chinese schools where students have all the lessons in one classroom, we travel from one building to another.For lunch, we have traditional British food such as fish and chips. During the lunch break, we can take part in clubs. There are over 30, such as drama and soccer. I joined a computer science club called Digital Creator and Chess Club.Lessons often finish at 4:15 in the afternoon. Our school focuses on students’ physical health by having games and activities on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. Students may choose different sports such as rugby（英式橄榄球）, soccer, squash（壁球）, cricket（板球）, hockey, basketball, swimming and table tennis.After school, we usually go back to our rooms and study different subjects for about two hours. A tutor is usually on duty, and if there are any problems, they can help. Study time usually finishes at 9 p.m. Students who have finished studying for the day can go to the games area, where they can play with other boys. After that, students are required to go to bed, usually by 10:30.12．The writer thinks uniforms in England are _______.A．boring B．comfortable C．formal D．casual13．The writer’s school starts with _______.A．the first lesson B．physical exercise C．morning reading time D．tutoringtime14．The writer usually goes to Chess Club _______.A．during class breaks B．during lunch breaks C．after school D．during weekends15．What do we know about the writer’s school?A．Students usually have lots of free time.B．There are breaks between each lesson.

His goal helped Hotspur enter the quarterfinals (四分之一决赛) of the UEFA Champions League (欧洲冠军联赛).Actually, this was not the first time Son had drawn attention.
