Last August his father found a job in another city and his family moved there. He began to study in the new school and we often write to each other. He often tells me something about the city where he lives now and his studies in the school. So I can know what happens to him.Last Friday Tom came to our city again. He hopes to accompany his old grandpa during the summer holiday. He's taller and stronger than before. We swim in the river outside the city together or have a picnic on the island. It surprises me that he has learned to cook when we were traveling in the wild forest. He told me his parents were both busy and sometimes he stayed at home alone and he had to look after himself.“How do you like your sch ool？” I asked.“Wonderful，” said the young man. “It has a tall building and there're two chemistry labs, two biology labs and three physics ones. And its library is big and there're plenty of books in it.”“I can see you are satisfied with it.”“Yes，” he answered. “But our geography teacher often says to himself in class.”“So does our new history teacher，” I said. “But he doesn't notice it. He often talks on and on in a flow of eloquence (口才). But none of us listens to him！”25．I can know what happens to Tom because ________.A．he lives near to me B．he often calls meC．he often writes to me D．I often visit him26．________，so he learned to cook.A．Tom likes all kinds of delicious foodsB．Tom often has a picnic with his friendsC．Tom found a job in a restaurantD．Tom has to do some cooking when he's in alone27．Tom came back to our city to ________.A．look after his sick grandpaB．take his summer holidayC．have a picnic on the islandD．travel in the wild forestCDo you always forget where you placed your keys or your purse? What was the name of the movie you saw last week? The major cause of your forgetfulness may be linked to what you store in your body, not in your short-term memory bank.Tests continue to show that people with enough Vitamin B-2 do well in memory exams. The "B" could stand for "brain", if you're one of many with limited instant recall. And the number one source of that vitamin (维生素) is sunflower seeds.Even when you're sleeping or relaxing, your brain is still at work. Although it makes up just two percent of your total body weight, it uses up to 30 % of the calories (卡路里) you take in each day. For it to work properly, it must be fed. Even if you're not a breakfast eater, that meal is the best way to prepare your brain for the day. A quick and easy English muffin with peanut and butter in it, a glass of milk, and an orange, might be what your brain may be asking you the first thing in the morning when you feel your head is in a fog. Having sunflower seeds and fruit between meals adds more muscle to that hungry, demanding organ. Vitamin B-1 also helps the memory, and that is found in eggs, meats and nuts. In Chinese culture, walnuts are known as the fruit for a long life because it is believed that they feed both the kidneys and the brain. And according to Chinese culture, if you keep those two important organs in good working order, you'll live longer.However forgetful you are, just keep in mind the letter "B", which will help you to "bear in mind almost everything" even on those days when life's challenges are sending you in a billion directions.28. The underlined word "muffin" in the third paragraph probably means________.A. menuB. dinnerC. cookieD. calorie29. What can we conclude from the passage?A. Two percent of our brain is still active when we are sleeping or relaxing.B. What we eat seems more important than what we learn in terms of memory.C. It doesn't make much difference to our brain whether we have breakfast or not.D. Life's challenges have no effect on our memory, if dealt with in a proper way.30. In the passage, Chinese culture is mentioned to________.A. support the idea of long lifeB. warn the readers of two organsC. show the importance of vitamin B-1D. remind us of walnuts and sunflower seeds31. What can you get from the passage?A. Keep in mind the letter "B"B. The younger, the better memoryC. Learn about Chinese cultureD. Try to get more restDEach Indian tribe had a different language. Many Indians never learned any languages except their own. Do you know how Indians from different tribes talked to each other? They had two ways to talk without sound. One way was by sign language; another way by signals.Sign language is a way of talking by using signs. Indians used sign language when they met strangers. In this way, they could find out whether the stranger was a friend or an enemy. In Indian sign language, sig ns were made with the hands. One sign meant “man”. Another meant “horse”. To tell the time of day when something happened, an Indian pointed to the sky. He showed where the sun had been at the time.Indians usually used signals when they wanted to send messages to someone far away. To make signals, an Indian might use a pony. He might use a blanket. Or he might use smoke, a mirror or fire arrows.To signal that he had seen many animals, an Indian rode his pony in a large circle. Sometimes the Indian gave a signal like this and then went away to hide. This meant that there was danger.The blanket signal was visible from far away. An Indian held the corners of a blanket in his hands. Then he began to swing the blanket from side to side in front of him. An Indian could send many different signals with his blanket.He could also send many signals with a mirror. He usually used the mirror to warn someone of danger. Of course, mirrors could be used only when the sun was shining. At night, Indians used fire arrows for signaling.Now you can see that Indians didn’t need to learn each other’s language. They could talk to one another by using signals or sign language.32. Blanket signals .A. could be seen far awayB. could be seen at nightC. were used only for warningD. were considered the best way of sending messages33. Indians didn’t need to learn each other’s language because .A. they could use signals or sign languageB. they never met each otherC. they could write messagesD. they thought they could easily make themselves understood34. Sign language is .A. a language only for IndiansB. a way of taking by signing on paperC. a way to express one’s ideas by making gesturesD. a secret way of talking to strangers35. The story tells about .A. people living in IndianB. how Indians communicate between different tribesC. the Indians who didn’t use their languagesD. the Indians who had many kinds of languages第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
