It's sad when a pet dies.But what will you do when it happens? Well, Elena went to talk with her parents about how she was feeling. She wanted to ask about some things she didn't understand, like where Tomaso went after death.

Mr Sun once shared his experience online. He met a man nearly every day on the underground. The man was always watching TV shows on his mobile phone without using headphones (耳机). So he decided to teach the man a lesson by copying him. After quietly telling his plan to the man, he played a song over and over again till the man shouted at him and left.

This kind of thing will not happen on the underground in Shanghai because of a new rule (规定). The rule says all passengers (乘客) must not use speakers on their mobile phones. That is, if they want to watch TV shows or listen to music, they need to use headphones. If they don't, workers at the underground station will stop them, or even hand them over to the police officer.

Many people in Shanghai say the rule protects the rights (权利) of other people on the underground and creates a better environment. "Playing music or videos through speakers can be disturbing to others," they say. "Many people need to have some peace and quiet before or after work."

People from other cities love the rule too.“It's faster for me to go to work by underground。 but I choose to get up early and drive the car," a man in Hangzhou says. "I just can't stand the man-made noise on it. I hope we can have the same rule soon."

Though the underground is open to everybody, there is still personal space for the passengers. Creating a better underground environment needs not only rules, but also everyone's self-discipline (自律).

37.Why did Mr Sun play a song again and again?

A.Because he tried to learn the song.

B.Because he liked the song very much.

C.Because he couldn't stand the man's "noise".

D.Because he thought it was fun to copy the man.

38.What may happen if people break the new rule?

A.They may have to give away their phones.

B.They may have to go to the police station.

C.They may have to work on the underground.

D.They may not be allowed to take the underground any more.

39.What does the underlined word "disturbing"mean?

A.Making people feel terrible.

B.Hurting someone's feelings deeply.

C.Telling something funny to somebody.

D.Causing pain in a part of someone's body.

40.What's the purpose of the passage?

A.To let people know about a new rule.

B.To advise all the cities to follow the rule.

C.To talk about the bad sides of watching TV shows.

D.To call on people to keep quiet on the underground.

"Would you like to join me?" Eric said to his sister, Emma.

 “__48__ (听起来) great,”Emma said. She took up the kite and threw it into the __49__ (天空)，but Eric didn't run off at the same __50__(时刻)，so the kite fell down.

“Ah! Have you __51__ (曾经) flown a kite? You don't know how to get a kite in the air!" Eric said and __52__(笑).

“You didn't run as I threw it,” Emma said angrily.

“Try again, children," Mrs Brown said.

Emma took up the kite again. But this time Eric was in too much of a __53__(匆忙). He ran off so suddenly that he pulled (拉) the kite right out of her hand.

“This is terrible!" Emma said.

“Children, you both are __54__ (聪明的)，and you can do it,”Mrs Brown said. "Just try again.”

I have been busy with my study and seldom helped my parents with the housework. However, i began to help parents with some housework last weekend. Firstly, i cleaned the room. I swept the floor, made my bed and took out the rubbish. Then i put away the things. All the things were in place and the house looked really tidy. More importantly, i even began to learn cooking by surfing the internet. Although i failed several times, i still managed to cook some delicious dishes.

After doing a day’s housework, i felt kind of tired but happy. I realized that i should be responsible for the housework as a family member and showed love and respect to my parents.
