But this time the friend was feeling very tired and kept looking at the clock on the wall. He didn’t want to be impolite, but at last he said, “Charles, my dear friend, I don’t want to put you out, but I have to go to work at six tomorrow morning, I must go to bed now. ”“Oh, my God!” said Mr Jackson in surprise. “I thought you were at my house.”

It is not easy for people to sail (航海) around the world in quite small boats. Sometimes the weather gets bad. Accidents(事故) can happen easily and quickly.
One family once had an accident. A big fish swam under their boat and bit holes(洞) in it. Sea water came in and the boat soon went down. Luckily these people had another small boat——a lifeboat, so they all got into the lifeboat. They lived in the boat for many days. They ate and slept, and always hoped. At last people in a ship saved them.
How do people live in a very small lifeboat for a long time? They must be strong in every way. They must have a hope, and they must have a strong desire（愿望）to live. People cannot drink seawater. If they drink a lot of sea water, they will quickly die. They must catch rainwater and drink it. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. So people cannot cook their food in the lifeboats. Raw (生的) fish and birds are not very nice but they are their only food. They must eat raw food, or they will die.
66．When the boat sank (下沉), the lifeboat gave the people _______.
A．hope B．beds C．rainwater D．food
67．One family once had an accident at sea, because _______.
A．their boat met bad weather B．their boat hit a big rock and it was broken
C．none of them knew how to sail D．a fish bit holes in their boat
68．People can catch _______ for food and drink at sea in a lifeboat.
A．fish and birds B．rainwater
C．both sea water and rainwater D．both A and B
69．Lifeboats do not often carry cookers. The word "cookers" here means ________.
A．炊具 B．食物 C．厨师 D．大盒子
70．From the article (文章) we can know that ______.
A．It’s not interesting to sail around the world
B．Fish in the sea are so dangerous
C．we must have a strong desire（愿望）to live when we are in danger
D．Nobody knows when we will die

Once when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus (马戏). Finally, there was only one family between the ticket office and us. This family made a big impression (印象) on me.
There were eight children, all probably under the age of 12. You could tell they didn’t have a lot of money. Their clothes were not expensive, but they were clean. The children talked excitedly about the clowns (小丑). It was clearly a very important day out for them. The father and mother seemed happy as they could be.
The ticket lady asked how many tickets the father wanted, he proudly answered, “Please let me buy eight children’s tickets and two adults’ tickets, so I can take my family to the circus.”
The ticket lady told him the price.
The man’s wife lowered her head. There was no longer a smile on the man’s face. He quietly asked, “How much did you say?”
The ticket lady again told him the price.
The man obviously didn’t have enough money. But how could he tell his kids the bad news?
Seeing what was happening, my dad took a $20 note from his pocket and dropped in on the ground. (We were not rich ourselves at all!) He then tapped the man on the shoulder and said, “Excuse me, sir, you dropped this.”
The man understood my father was helping him. He picked up the money, looked straight into my dad’s eyes, and in tears replied. “Thank you. This really means a lot to me and my family.”
Although we did not go to the circus that night, we didn’t go without.
71．Why does the writer say “Their clothes were not expensive, but they were clean” (Paragraph 2)?
A．To show the children were looked after well.
B．To show cheap clothes could be popular.
C．To show how hard the mother worked.
D．To show how rich the family were.
72．Why was the poor man unhappy after he spoke with the ticket lady?
A．He had lost his money. B．His children were noisy.
C．The tickets were sold out. D．The tickets were too expensive.
73．Who did the $20 note belong to?
A．The poor man. B．The writer’s father.
C．The poor man’s wife. D．The ticket lady.
74．Why was the poor man in tears at the end of the story?
A．He found the money he lost. B．He wanted others to help him.
C．He made his children unhappy. D．He was thankful for the kindness.
75．Which of the following statements is probably true according to the passage?
A．The poor man’s family saw the circus that night.
B．The two families became close friends.
C．The writer’s father earned some money.
D．The writer saw the circus that night.


九、阅读填表
阅读短文，完成表格，每空一词，
What do you read when you are travelling by train or bus? What are other people reading? Maybe a woman sitting near you is reading a love story. A man is reading a serious biography(自传) about a president. And there’s a student reading an English textbook.
What do their choices (选择) say about them? Do you think you can know them by what they are reading? I have got to tell you that your feelings of them may be quite wrong. The woman reading the love story could be a lawyer. She just wants a light read to take her mind off work. The man reading the biography wants you to think that he is very clever. The student reading the textbook isn’t a student at all. In fact, she’s an English teacher.
Publishers (出版商) know that some people care what they read on trains or buses and so they put out different kinds of covers. For example, books about Harry Potter have a cartoon cover for young readers and then another more serious cover for grown-ups.
So next time you are on a train, look around and see what other people are reading, but don’t jump to any conclusions (结论). You will be wrong maybe.
Here is a sentence that you could say, “Don’t judge (判断) a book by its cover”.
Title: Never judge a book people choose to read by the 76．
Persons
The lawyer reading a love story just wants to have a 77．.
The man reading the biography wants 78． people to think he is very 79．.
In 80．, the student reading a textbook 81． English.
Ways
Publishers won’t put out the 82． cover of a book 83． people care what they read on trains or buses.
conclusion
If you 84． to the conclusions carelessly, you may make 85．.

Du Fu was a famous Chinese poet (诗人) during the Tang Dynasty (唐朝). He was 86． in Hunan Province. His grandpa was also a great poet. Du Fu spent a lot of time in 87． (read) before he was 35 years old. Along with Li Bai, he is often called the 88． (great) Chinese poets. He cared about poor people’s life and often wrote poems about it, so he was deeply loved by people. His life, like the whole country, was poor because of the Anshi Rebelion (安史之乱) of 755. He and his family wandered (漂泊) everywhere and he died of 89． (ill) and poverty.
He began to learn poems at the 90． of 7. His 91． (work) had attracted people’s attention since he was 15 years old.

Dear Cindy,
I’m glad to tell you that we will have three new selective courses this term. One is the Travelling Course, another is the DIY Course, the third one is the Animal-protection Course.
During the travelling course, we can read books and enjoy the places of interest from all over the world. Besides, we can discuss in groups to learn more about different cultures. If we take the DIY course, we can learn how to make small gifts. We can also learn to make school things like word cards. There is also an Animal-protection course. There we can learn something about animals in danger and learn how to protect them..
I think I would like to choose the DIY course, because it will make our school life more interesting. I’m sure I’ll learn more about making things in this course. I hope more students will attend the course.
Best wishes,
Amy
