Something in his tone told me that he was not looking forward to the bee. I could not understand! It sounded like a lot of fun to me.All day, I found myself wishing I was in middle school, so I could take part in the geography bee. During my lunch break I walked up to my social studies teacher’s classroom and asked her if I could take part in the bee for middle school. But she did hesitate (犹豫) a bit because I was too young, just a primary school pupil. I told her that I really loved to learn about our earth, its rivers, mountains, all the human cultures on it. She was still not sure but finally said,“Y es.” I jumped at once!That next morning I was going to be in the school bee as a participant and learn things I was really interested in. I was not nervous one bit, instead just very excited to be doing something I really loved. We had four written rounds —two on the United States and two on the world. I did surprisingly well and placed on the top ten, beating some of the strong seventh and eighth graders.I lost in the oral round the next day, but won my teacher’s attention. I came home and looked up the answers to the questions that I and other students lost on.I placed second in my school the following year, but more importantly, I realized that I really loved geography and enjoyed the time I spent learning it. I may have lost that first bee, but I won the world; a love for that world; love to explore that world — one country, one mountain, one river, one landform at a time; and that is certainly the biggest win for me truly!44. The underlined word "participant" in the passage means "___________".A. 初学者B. 监考官C. 联络人D. 参与者45. From the passage, we know that Jimmy was probably a(n) ____________.A. primary school childB. geography teacherC. eighth grade studentD. middle school worker46. What did Jimmy think of his first geography bee?A. He was very sorry to lose the geography bee.B. It made him fall in love with geography from then on.C. He placed second in the speaking round the next day.D. It made him get to know it was hard to learn geography well.CCollege students often hear about the “freshman fifteen”. What does it mean? You may wonder.It means the fifteen pounds, or about seven kilograms students might gain(获得) in their first year of college.Many young men and women put on extra weight when they start college. Someschools have studied it. Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, has found that freshmen gain an average of four pounds during their first twelve weeks. That is almost two kilograms. If weight gain continues at this rate(比率), how long will they put on fifteen pounds? The answer is forty-five weeks, or almost a year.And why do so many freshmen gain weight? The answers listed by experts are not so surprising. The freshmen gain weight because it’s the first time for college kids to enjoy complete control over their own lives. They may choose to eat and drink whatever they want, whenever they want. For example, college students often eat foods high in fat. After all, there are no parents around to say no to junk food. Students may also miss meals. They could be in class or studying or just … busy. Also, freshmen often use food to relax their mind, they will overeat when they have food as they have college pressures to deal with.This may be short-lived (短暂的), but the weight gain should not be overlooked(忽视). Remember: It requires more effort to lose those pounds than to simply not gain them in the beginning. Or even worse, they may carry the extra weight around for years.36. What does the “freshman fifteen” mean?A. The first fifteen days at college.B. The freedom first-year college students enjoy.C. The fifteen pounds first-year college students gain.D. The fifteen pounds first-year college students lose.37. Some freshmen often overeat to ________________.A. give themselves more energyB. gain extra weightC. taste junk foodD. take pressures off their mind38. How many reasons are given in Paragraph 4 for students’ weight gain?A. One.B. Two.C. Four.D. Five.39. What does the pronoun “This” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Weight.B. Freshman fifteen.C. Pressure.D. Eating.40. We can infer from the last paragraph that ______.A. “freshman fifteen” may have long-term effect on college studentsB. weight gain is nothing serious for freshmenC. “freshman fifteen” is not a common problemD. “freshman fifteen” is a problem hard to prevent五、阅读与表达（一空一词。

I was crying on the bus，and some people were turning around to look at me.I could not stop the thought of never hearing the morning radio programmes in school again.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again.In fact，I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives.When we were leaving，I couldn't wait to think about all the places I was going to see and the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.The country I was leaving was hardly in my head then.The following years taught me to think all was going to turn out well，but the idea did not come to me at once.For the first two years，I had to study in three schools because of my family moves.I did not know very clearly what I was or what I should be.Father died and Mother then married again.And things became even more complex（复杂）.More than two years passed，my stepfather and I got used to each other at last.I was often sad，and saw no end to“the hard times”.My responsibilities in the family increased since I knew English better than everyone else at home.I wrote letters，taught my mother to fill out forms，translated at interviews with immigration officers（移民局官员），took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there...I have learned that all common troubles go away at last if we don't give up.My life will turn out all right，even though it will be so hard.( )44. The underlined words"this reason"in Paragraph 2 refer to______.A. missing the morning radio programmesB. leaving the writer's friends and relativesC. getting away from the writer's parentsD. being not able to see new places( )45.

From the first paragraph, we can learn that______.A. Britain has banned the sale of energy drinks to kidsB. the UK government hasn't decided what age the ban should start atC. kids of all ages will no longer buy any energy drinksD. children in the UK can't buy energy drinks at the moment( )48.

The sport is not so common in China, but almost half of all American high schools have rowing teams. Recently, the school where I study had a rowing season that gave me many great experiences.During the season, we practiced rowing a lot. We got up at six every Saturday morning and practiced for three hours on the river. Each one of us had an oar(桨) and we each rowed one oar with both hands. Together we pulled the oars, and the oars pushed the water back so the boat would move forward. After three hours of practice, we often felt very tired, because rowing is a very physical sport. When you row, you do a lot of work with your legs and back.Though the practices were very hard, I chose to do them because I like the joy the hard work brings. At every practice, I always did my best. Even when the coaches were not there. I kept rowing hard with my hands because I wanted to find out how well I could do. In order to move the boat fast, everyone in the team must keep the same speed(速度)so we needed to work together.The hard work I did during the rowing helped me develop my teamwork qualities. The experience also taught me that if you want to get something. you need to pay something first. As Americans like to say, "No pains, no gains! "8. What can we infer(推断) about the writer?A. He is a Chinese student studying in America.B. He is a rowing coach from America.C. He is a sports newspaper reporter.D. He is a teacher of an American high school.9.

In the last paragraph, the writer wants to tell us thatA. there is no pain in hard work.B. money plays an important role in life.C. a strong body is very important for our dreams.D. we won't be successful if we don't work hard.DWho cooks in your family? Who cleans the clothes? Who washes the dishes? Who takes care of the baby? 12 But not on the second Sunday of May. On that day, it's you.That's because the second Sunday of May is Mother's Day. 13 One way people can do that is by doing all those things for her. For example, one tradition in the US is for the father and children in a family to cook breakfast for the mother and serve it to her in bed. 14 It's their favorite holiday.Another thing you can do is to give her a present. 15 But children often make their presents. For example, they may draw her a pretty card, or make her a nice necklace or bracelet(手镯) out of macaroni(通心粉).In fact, any way you do it is fine. Sometimes the best Mother's Day present is a hug.根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选二、语言知识运用(共20小题; 满分20分)A阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
