    Do you know that in some parts of the world, people build temporary (暂时的) hotels made of snow and blocks (大块) of ice? These are known as ice hotels.

Unlike usual hotels, all the rooms in the ice hotels are made of ice. In some ice hotels, even the glasses for drinks are made of ice blocks. So they only serve cold drinks. Also, hot food is not served in the ice hotels, but guests (客人) can eat hot food at places nearby.

To keep warm, guests sleep in comfortable sleeping bags on ice blocks that are covered by mattresses (床垫) and reindeer skins (驯鹿皮).

There are some places in the ice hotels that are heated, such as the bathrooms. This is because, even though it is not as cold in the ice hotels as it is outdoors, indoor temperature is still very low.

Perhaps the most interesting thing about the ice hotels is that they are rebuilt every year.They can be used only during the winter months. The ice hotels melt (融化) away when spring arrives. The ice blocks used to build these hotels are from nearby rivers. So, when the ice hotels melt away, they melt back into the rivers.

21．Which of the following about the ice hotels is true?

A．They are just like usual hotels. B．The glasses are made of wood.

C．They serve cold drinks. D．The rooms are made of bamboo.

22．Why are bathrooms heated in the ice hotels?

A．Guests want to eat in them. B．Indoor temperature is very low.

C．Guests ask the hotels to do that. D．It’s as cold indoors as it is outdoors.

23．What happens to the ice hotels in spring?

A．They melt away. B．They are rebuilt.

C．They are repaired. D．They need more ice.

    Three students are talking about the New Year tradition of their own countries.

On the last day of the year, December 31st, people wait till 12 p.m. Everybody must have 12 grapes to eat at midnight. At each sound of the clock, we must eat a grape. But we can't ever finish eating the grapes on time. Usually when people still have some grapes in their mouths, they look at each other and start to laugh.This tradition started in Spain long ago. One year, when there were a lot of grapes, the king of Spain decided to give grapes to everybody to eat on New Year’s Eve.

——Christina from Spain

On New Year’s Day in Britain, people have parties. At 12 o’clock, the music stops, and we listen to the radio. On the radio we hear Big Ben, the famous clock in London.Then everybody sings a song about friendship and kisses their friends. We say “Happy New Year!” to each other. It’s lucky if a tall man with dark hair is the first person to come to the house in the New Year. So l go and visit as many friends as l can. They all give me a drink.

   ——Cordon from Britain

In all cities in Brazil, we have a big party on New Year’s Eve, especially in Rio de Janeiro. People in this city go to the beaches to watch fireworks (烟花). We put flowers in the sea and think about things we want for ourselves or others. We usually wear white clothes for good luck during the New Year.

    Many Chinese mothers are afraid that their children will fall behind their classmates, so these mothers are becoming “tiger mothers”. They believe the harder their children study, the happier life they will have in the future. Is it true? Lulu and her sister Sophia may have a say.

The tiger mother, Amy, is a Chinese-American professor at Yale Law School in the USA．Several years ago, she wrote a book named Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother and shared her strict parenting style(育儿方式) in it.

Many people don’t like Amy’s style of parenting. They once worried that her daughters would not be happy. However, the two girls have grown up and they are thankful to their mother. Sophia has just graduated from Yale University. She is hardworking, friendly and helpful. Not long ago she shared some useful studying tips online.

    It’s a hot time for Chinese language learning across the world, not only because of China’s higher position in the world but also because of the increasing economic(经济的) and cultural connections between China and other countries.

For example, the United Arab Emirates (UAE)(阿拉伯联合酋长国) plans to open Chinese language courses in 200 public primary and middle schools, so experienced Chinese teachers are needed.

Other Chinese courses opened across the world show the increasing need for Chinese—speaking talent. Mandarin(普通话) became an elective(选修的) foreign language in Russia’s college entrance exam. Following English German, French, and Spanish, Mandarin has become the fifth elective test subject for the exam.

Spain has more than 40,000 people learning Chinese. Last year about 8,000 people took the Chinese Proficiency(精通) Test (HSK) exam. The number of people who took the test was the biggest, according to Xinhua News Agency.

In the US, learning Chinese has been thriving for many years and is now a popular choice for American children, especially those who were born in good families. The children begin to learn Chinese at an early age because their parents believe that learning Chinese will help them build successful international careers(职业).

32．Why is Chinese language learning so hot?

五、阅读还原6选5

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。选项中有一项为多余选项。

Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes.36．

A recent study shows that playing a musical instrument (乐器) can improve a person’s hearing ability. In the study two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room.The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. 37．

Musicians hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds. 38． When they play with the group, they hear their own instrument and many others, too. But they must listen closely to what they are playing, and pay no attention to the other sounds. In this way, they are able to pay attention to certain sounds,even in a room with lots of noise.

Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names,addresses, or other information normally. 39． Schlaug was surprised to find that singing words helped his patients to speak.

Music seems to make different parts of the brain work, including the damaged (损坏的) parts. Researchers are not sure why this works. Music improves concentration (注意力) memory, listening skills, and our language abilities. 40． Music is not only enjoyable, it’s also good for us in many other ways.

A．It can even help sick people get better.

B．However,they can still sing.

C．Think about the violinists in a musical band.

D．Music improves certain language abilities in the brain.

E.This might help patients to use that part of the brain again.

F.The musicians were able to hear the talking person more clearly.

    When I was nine years old, I used to go to the post office with my mother to send greeting cards to my aunt in Singapore. To me, these trips were really    41    memories. And receiving mail through a mailbox outside our gate was just so exciting.

81．例文

Dear Billy,

I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble getting used to life in middle school. In your letter you said that you always felt lonely because of having few friends. I think it is a good choice to join some clubs in your school. In this way, you can make more friends who share the same interest with you. Besides, you’d better be friendly to others. Smile at others and you are sure to get a smile in return. On the other hand, you found it difficult to remember English words. Reading more English stories and news can help you learn English words in a practical way. In addition, if you can develop a habit of keeping an English diary everyday, it will be easier for you to remember more words. What’s more, you told me that you used to have little homework, but now there is more and more of it. And you are not allowed to watch TV by your parents. Why don’t you try to communicate with your parents? Just let them know that you can plan your time well and get good scores in study.

I hope you will find these suggestions useful. Good luck with everything!

Mary
