College students often take planes to places like Florida or Cancun,Mexico.They relax on the beach,enjoy cold drinks and get a tan.Younger kids take trips with their parents,visiting a new state or even a newcountry.Sometimes teachers lead overseas trips for groups of students.On a ten-day trip,for example,students may go on a tour through Spain,France,and Italy,which gives them a great chance to see different parts of the world.Having a “staycation”’which means being a tourist in your own city,is another popular trend(趋势).You can visit local art galleries(美术馆），museums or have a big meal in a nice restaurant.For those who are not in the mood to go out,spring break experience.Instead of playing,they choose to do community service,help with disaster-hit areas and do other volunteering work.No matter how they’ve spent the break,one thing is for true---students return to school feeling refreshed(恢复活力的）and ready to finish the school year.88.Students in the US begin their spring break at a different time,don’t they?________________________________________________________89.How long does the spring break last?_________________________________________90.Where do the college students often go during the spring break?____________________________________________________91.According to the passage,how can students spend the spring break differently?By________________________________________________________92.What’s the advantage of having a spring break?__________________________________________93.If you are given the spring break,how will you spend it?why?__________________________________________________Ⅶ.Writing94.Write at least 60 words about the topic “An Unforgettable Experience”(以“一次难忘的经历”为题写一篇不少于60个词的短文，标点符号不占格）初中生活即将结束，三年的初中生活一定给你留下很多难以忘怀的经历，请谈谈令你难忘，值得回忆的一次经历。

A recent research finds that sleep is important for things to be stored into the brain. Having a good night’s sleep is necessary if you want to remember a new task within 30 minutes.A recent research was published in the December issue of Nature Neuro-Science. It showed that it was the act of sleep that was important for people to memorize more things.“We think that getting that first night’s sleep starts the process of memory consolidation,” said Robert, a sleep researcher at Harvard Medical School who conducted the latest study.About one in every five people says that it is difficult to sleep for at least 8 hours a day. And not enough sleep affects their daily activities. The latest research work pay more attention to the less well-understood side effect --- serious memory hurt. Volunteers in an experiment found it easier to finish the memory work if they were allowed to sleep that night. But for those who kept awake, now matter how long they were in bed, the loss cannot be made up for.After the experiment, the scientists concluded that enough sleep is necessary for good memories.21. be stored, 22. new task 23. memorize more 24. daily activities 25.that nightPart 2 Phonetics , Grammar and Vocabulary 第二部分语音、语法和词汇II.

They arekept so that people can go and see them. For example, artmuseums are places where people can learn about v 81 cultures. More and more popular "design museums" are opening today, h 82 , play quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found in our daily life, such as fridges and washing machines. The a 83 of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Being different from the art m useum visitors, design museum visitors s 84____ feel frightened or puzzled. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-products(批量产品)work and look as they do, and how design has i 85 our lives.People can see the better changes of the products. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something theydon't understand.Several new design museums have opened their doors in recent years. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public's growing interest in the field with new i 86 . London's Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins.
