A
Megan
I' m based in Bahrain, and I have a small apartment there. The thing I like most about my job is the chance to meet people from different cultures. I spend a lot of my time handing out food and drinks and clearing up people’s rubbish. I certainly don’t feel very excited about going home at two in the morning！
Frank
I enjoy playing around with word puzzles. So I sent a couple in to a local newspaper and was really surprised when they asked me for more. I suppose it is a strange way to spend your day surrounded by dictionaries and books, but it's great because I’m just doing what I like.
Gemma
I love music and listen to it all the time, even when I go jogging(慢跑). As for my job—you really can’t be shy in this kind of work, and you have to be very patient because sometimes we practise for hours before we get it right. When we’re on tour, we work for several weeks with no breaks and you can get really tired. For
relaxation, whenever I get a holiday, I go straight to a sunny beach.
Raoul
Most people think I spend my day chopping(切) vegetables and washing dishes, but it's not that simple. I have to be really careful with the food and keep everything very clean. The biggest problem is my boss —he shouts at me all the time —even, for example, if I forget to wash up one plate. Actually, I’m hoping to find a new job soon because I don't get much time off.
21. What’s the biggest attraction of Megan’s job?
A. The long holidays
B. Handing out food to people
C. Getting to know different people

In 1909, when Tatiana was just 11 years old, her parents and older brother traveled to the United States. Because the family could not afford to buy her a ticket, she had to remain in Russia. She had lived with her uncle for almost a year in a small house before the special letter arrived from her father. “Dear Tatiana,”he wrote. “At last we have earned enough money to pay for your ticket. After you join us in New York, we will travel by train to a place called South Dakota where we have bought a farm.”
A week later. T atiana’s uncle used the money her father had sent to buy her a ticket for the Louisa Jane, a steamship that was leaving for America. Although she was lonely and missed her family, T atiana quickly made friends with the other children on the Louisa Jane. Together, they invented games that could be played on the ship, and they ran around the decks(甲板).
The next day, as Tatiana was walking along the deck, she heard some of the passengers talking about the Statue of Liberty(自由女神像).This conversation made her puzzled(困惑的)because she knew that liberty was an idea. No one could see or touch it, so how could liberty? When she asked her friend’s father, Mr Dimitrivitc, he explained that the statue looked like a woman, but it stood for freedom. This explanation just made Tatiana more interested in the statue.
One morning, T atiana woke up to the sound of wild shouting. She ran upstairs and found all the passengers were crowded onto the deck. The shouts were really cries of excitement because the Louisa Jane had finally reached the United States. When Tatiana
realized that she would soon see her family again, she joined in with shouts of her own. Mr. Dimitrivitch had told her that the statue stood for freedom, and she finally understood what he meant.
24. Why did T atiana stay in Russia?
A. She loved her motherland
B. She needed to take care of her uncle
C. Her parents wanted her to manage the farm
D. Her parents were too poor to buy her a ticket
25. What happened to T atiana on the sea?
A. She had a good time
B. She missed her life in Russia
C. She killed time by watching the sea
D. She was looked after by Mr. Dimitriviteh

D Surprised
27. What s the best title for the text?

D.Tatiana’s life in America

I was asked by a reader recently why so many animals seem to have pink ears, when their bodies are all different colours? The truth is that most animals actually don’t have pink ears. Let us explain.
Near the equator (赤道), where the climate is hot, animals are likely to have darker skin including on their ears. Think of the African elephant, which has quite dark ears. In colder climates, skin colour is usually lighter and often pink.
Why is skin colour different in different climates? Skin pigmentation(染色), which is what gives skin its colour, can protect against sunburn and skin cancer(癌症). When animals live in colder parts of the world, they don’t need it as much to survive. Light-coloured skin also helps animals stay warmer because it reduces heat loss, which is useful if you re in a colder climate.
For most animals, the colour of their fur or other body covering has generally developed as camouflage. That allows animals to mix into the background and avoid being eaten, or for predators(捕食者) to remain hidden during hunting. One example is the sandy-coloured coat of the desert fennec fox, which uses camouflage for both hunting and hiding.
By the way, in many animals, ears come in many different shapes and sizes. For example, in bats, the serval (a type of African wildcat) and the fennec fox, the ears are large compared to their body size --- this helps them hear better because it allows them to
sense more sound waves. Naked mole-rats have tiny ears because they need to dig a lot. Big ears would get in the way. The other downside of big ears is that you can lose a lot of body heat. That s why animals that live in really cold places, like the Arctic fox, have quite small ears.
28. Who is the author most likely to be?
A. A teacher
B. A librarian
C A zoo worker.
D A science writer
29. What does the underlined word “it”in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Sunlight
B. Camouflage.
C. Skin pigmentation
D. Light-coloured skin
30. Which animal uses its skin colour to protect itself from being eaten?
A. The Arctic fox
B. The naked mole-rat
C. The African elephant
D. The desert fennec fox
31. What do we know about animals living in cold places?
A. They usually have small light-coloured ears
B. They know ways to store body heat
C. They need big ears to keep warm
D. They usually have good hearing.
D
We often play tricks on each other on April Foo’s Day. However, it’s not just friends and family you have to be careful of---some big companies also do their best to fool the public.
In 2002, the British supermarket chain, Tesco, advertised a ‘whistling（吹口哨）carrot’. The advertisement explained that the carrot had been genetically engineered（转基因)to grow with air holes down the side so that it would start whistling when it was fully cooked.
Another famous April Fool’s Day joke, this time from 1962, comes from Sweden. It was reported on the news that it had become possible to watch colour programmes on black and white TVs because of some new technology the TV station had invented. People were told to pull a nylon stocking(尼龙长袜) over the screen so they would be able to watch the programmes in colour. Since almost everyone in Sweden had a black and white TV in those days, hundreds of thousands of people tried to do this, even though the news came on the morning of April 1st.
While many of these jokes are limited to one country, Google went global with its first April Fool’s joke in 2000. They said that you could use your mind to control the search engine. The Mental Plex could read your mind to know what you wanted to search for! Another Google April Fool’s joke was Gmail Motion, which was introduced on You Tube on 1st April 2011. They said that because of a new technology, you could now control emails with your body. For example, pointing your thumbs(拇指) backwards over your shoulders
would signal ‘reply all’. As people were already familiar with games which are controlled by body movements, Gmail Motion seemed quite believable.
We may all like to think that we couldn’t be fooled by tricks like these. But, be careful, next year’s April Fool just might be you!
32. According to the text, the carrot would whistle___________.
A. when it was heated
B. because it was full of holes
C because it grew upside down
D. when it was completely cooked
33. What was people’s reaction to the colour TV trick?
A. Most people were doubtful about it
B. Some people replaced their black and white TVs
C. Quite a lot of people tried to follow the directions
D. Some people called the TV station for more information
34. What’s special about Google April Fool’s jokes?
A. They failed to fool the public
B. They reached the whole world
C. They combined games and body movements
D. They were designed to help people deal with emails
35. How does the author develop the text?
A. By giving examples
B. By stating arguments
C. By explaining scientific knowledge
D. By providing research results

The Benefits of Keeping a Journal
If you want to grow, one important thing you should do is keeping a journal. It may seem simple, but it can make a big difference in your life. I have been keeping journal for years. Writing all the ideas I get has become a habit for me. 36
Here are some benefits you will get by keeping a journal.
lt prevents you from losing an idea. Have you ever gotten an idea only to lose it later because you didn’t write it down? 37 But then I developed the habit of writing down every idea that came into my mind as soon as possible. If I’m away from my computer. I usually write it down on a piece of paper that I bring wherever I go. I will then transfer the idea to the journal in my computer.
It helps you review all the lessons you've learned. By reviewing your journal, you can quickly see the lessons you’ve learned and the ideas you’ve gotten. 38 You can use the ideas to push yourself forward.
39 After keeping a journal for years, you can look back at it and see how far you’ve gone. Things that were big problems in the past might seem small today. The raw ideas you had in the past might have been realized today.
It helps you expand your ideas. When you try to come up with a sentence to express
an idea, you are thinking actively about it. 40 In the end, you will expand your ideas.
A. I often experienced that myself.
B. It trains you to express your thoughts
C. It allows you to see your progress over time.
D. Just use whatever tool you feel comfortable with
E. Thinking actively helps you connect your idea to anther idea
F. And to be honest, I can imagine what my life would be like without it
G. Then you can do whatever necessary to avoid repeating the same mistakes
