AThe moment I walked out of the "Arrivals" gate at the airport,I saw a big handmade signboard "Welcome Xiyun" behind the waiting line,and I knew I had found a caring host family at the other side of the world-the United States.My host mom had already prepared and decorated my room nicely for me.There was a doll on one side of the room,and a bookcase full of books on the other-they had heard I loved reading.Mom had also placed a keyboard for me,since she knew that I played the piano well.My life in the host family did not go very well at first.Because I am the only child in my family in China,I was not used to having two younger kids-Zoe and Grace-running around me yelling（大喊大叫）all the time.Mom had a serious talk with me about this problem on a Sunday afternoon.She told me: "You can't just come home from school every day,go to your room and do your homework.You need to be a part of this family.You need to play with my kids for at least an hour." This rule was very annoying at first.I did not have much experience playing with children. However,the more time I spent with the kids.the more I grew to love them.We played games and read books together. I even taught them Chinese.Thanks to Mom's rule,I began to feel like I was really part of the family.Meanwhile.Mom inspired me to live a healthier life,She got up early every morning to go running.On weekends.she took the whole family to visit parks or go camping.I did not like sports much when I was back home,but now I love to join all kinds of sports.I am healthier and more confident too.With my American family,I found joy and laughter.I learned to live with energy and optimism（乐观）thanks to the care and responsibility of my loving American parents.By Jiang Xiyun21.The passage is mainly about .A.various difficulties Xiyun met in America .B.how Xiyun learned to get along with younger kids in AmericaC.how much Xiyun's caring host family in America changed herD.the cultural differences Xiyun experienced in America22.What can we infer from the passage?A.Xiyun's life with her American host family went very well from the beginning.B.The host mom cared about Xiyun's overall development.C.The host family's two children didn't like Xiyun at all.D.Xiyun didn't notice what the host family did for her.23.How did the host mom influence Xiyun gradually?A.By words and by force.B.By talking and by force.C.By force and by behavior.D.By words and by actions.BWhat would it be like to live on Mars? Volunteers are spending eight months in an area that looks much like the surface of Mars.They are isolated（孤立）high on top of Mauna Loa,a volcanic mountain on the Big Island of Hawaji, living on a simulated（模仿的）or make-believe,Mars Base.The project called HI-SEAS is in the charge of Kim Binsted.She says this wild environment is as close to Mars as you can find on Earth.Because it is so high,the land is not warm or rich with plants,like the rest of Hawaii."You will see there is really no visible plant life or animal life.And you have got this wonderful volcanic material."Mauna Loa,2,500 meters above sea level,is geologically very similar to Olympus Mons on Mars and almost as tall as that Martian mountain.When measured from its base,deep in the ocean,Mauna Loa is the second largest mountain in our solar system,after the one on Mars.The six member HI-SEAS crew is mostly self-sufficient.Food and supplies are brought to them.But the individuals bringing those supplies cannot communicate with volunteers inside the habitat,or base.Kim Binsted says this experiment looks at how the astronauts get along with each other."We study how well they work together,how we can keep them happy and supported,and not wanting to kill each other over these long durations（期间）."Crew members communicate with the outside world through e-mail and blogs.They also produce video on the YouTube website,like this one from mission commander Martha Lenio."I am really enjoying this opportunity to live here and pretend that I'm on Mars and get tolearn all sorts of new skills." One of them said.Whoever gets there first,the trip will not be easy,says Kim Binsted."It is going to be challenging."24.What do we know about Olympus Mons?A.It is 2,500 meters above sea level.B.It is geologically similar to Mauna,Loa.C.It is the second largest mountain on the earth.D.It is a mountain on the Big Island of Hawaii.25.What is the purpose of the experiment?A.To set up a space station.B.To explore new settlement for human.C.To study how the astronauts treat each other.D.To prove human can live in whatever conditions.26.Which can be the best title for the next?A.Volunteers First Explore MarsB.Volunteers Experience Life in HawaiiC.Volunteers Get Taste of Mars in HawaiiD.Volunteers Study the Environment on MarsCGreen living has become more important than ever and as time goes by,it will only become a more important issue.While it used to roe a matter of making an extra effort to save energy and reduce waste in our homes,this has extended to the professional side of things since.Public buildings,such as schools,hospitals and offices,are under an increasing amount of pressure to make the change and go green,even if it's just a step-by-step process that takes a few years to complete.There are plenty of reasons for offices to go green and these reasons go beyond the concept that it should be done just for the sake of the environment.While the environment is unbelievable important and vital to our survival and quality of life,sustainable（可持续的）office design can also have positive impacts upon employees and people using the building.For example,a report carried out last.September revealed that the way an office is designed can significantly impact on the health of the staff there.It was also found to have an effect on productivity and could be a contributory（起作用的）factor to the amount of sick leave and staff turnaround within the business.It's fascinating to think that people can be so sensitive to theirenvironments but it also makes a lot of sense.Even the choice of colour in your office can negatively or positively affect the people working there.Based on this study,it is clear that companies should be making more efforts to improve on the office design while making sure the environment is sustainable and green.There are various little changes that can be made to lead to something bigger,from making sure the lights are turned off at night to recycling the paper your company gets through on a weekly basis.Once these changes are in place,you can start looking at the bigger picture and begin complete changes to design and construction,like having wood fibre insulation（绝缘）fitted.Along with other sustainable features,insulation can be beneficial in various ways.Not only will an insulated office space be environmentally sound by helping you to keep warm in the winter and cool in the summer,reducing the reliance on the thermostat（恒温器）and central heating and saving money,but it can also be an effective form of sound absorption.The study revealed that noise is a contributory factor to productivity problems,and if you work in a particularly busy area,then noise can become a real issue.The aim is to create an environment that is comfortable and calm enough for people to concentrate and work productively.Soundproof walls are an effective and environmentally friendly solution.27.What is the author's argument in the passage?A.Green living can help to save energy.B.Public building should go green.C.Green living still has a long way to go.D.It is important to lead a green life.28.The author mentioned the report carried out last year for the purpose of .A.showing us how to design an officeB.telling us the side effects of green livingC.improving the productivity of office workers.D.proving the benefits of green office design29.According to the author,what is necessary for companies to do?A.Allow enough sick leave to their employees.B.Paint all the walls of their offices green.C.Make some improvements to their office design.D.Make their staff more productive than before.30.The last paragraph mainly tells us about .A.the benefits of insulation to officesB.how to keep an office's temperature constantC.the advantages of living a green life in the cityD.how to make staff work comfortably and effectively第二节（共5个小题，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。
