However, you should already understand basic English structures and alphabets, for the app can't help you learn English from scratch  (从零开始) .

On warm winter days, Yang Liheng 89 enjoys sitting by the window and looking through old photos. These photos bring him joy and happiness once more.
For Yang, one of the long-expected activities during the Spring Festival is to take photos with family members. On the early morning of the second day of the Chinese New Year when the whole family reunite, he would dress up and wait for the photo to be taken.
Yang became a photographer in the late 1950s. With his camera, Yang recorded the great changes of his hometown over time. “I had a painful childhood. but I got a chance to be a photographer after the founding(成立)of the People’s Republic of China.” Yang told Beijing Review. “I want to record, in the form of photographs, the local customs, the scenes and people’s brave spirit of fighting against the hard conditions here in my hometown.”
“I used to take pictures for everyone else, but seldom turned my camera at my family members.” Yang said. “My grandson gave me the idea to record the growth and development of my own family.” Taking family photos then became a tradition for Yang’s family. Though now some of his grandchildren are working and living in other cities, they try their best to return home during the Spring Festival and prepare for the special moment.
Last year was an important year for Yang Liheng. Most of his photos were displayed in Yinchuan to show the development of the area over the past sixty years.

26、What is the main idea of paragraph 3?
A. When Yang was interviewed. B. Where Yang learnt to take photos.

Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history.
Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers(羽毛), for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.
Why should people care? Because we need animals. And because once they are gone, there will never be any more.
Animals are more than just beautiful or interesting. They are more than just a source（源泉） of food. Every animal has its place in the balance (平衡) of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems.
For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks(鹰), the farmers’ stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice. With no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice multiplied(繁殖) quickly.
Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger.
Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid(禁止) the killing of any animal or plant on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.
28、Animals are important to us mainly because __________.
A. they are beautiful and lovely B. they give us a source of food
C. they give us a lot of pleasure D. they keep the balance of nature
29、What has happened to the animals on the earth?
A. All kinds of animals are in danger.
B. A few kinds of animals have died out.
C. Thousands of kinds of animals are gone forever.
D. About 170 kinds of animals have disappeared forever.
30、Why do people kill animals?
A. They kill animals to raise some money.
B. They kill animals for something they need.
C. Animals create many problems.
D. Animals destroy their natural resources.
31、What can we conclude from the fact that quite a few countries have passed laws protecting animals in danger?
A. Animals in danger will not be killed any more.
B. Animals in danger will be kept away from people.
C. The number of some animals in danger will increase.
D. Every person will know the importance of protecting wild animals.
I have never understood why we keep a garden and why years ago when I bought my first house, I started digging up a small land for vegetables before doing anything else. It is so easy and cheap to buy carrots; why raise them? When April comes, I always find myself looking at that miserable land, resolving not to plant it again. But unavoidably a morning arrives when, just as I am awakening, a refreshing scent, as if from the very center of this planet, comes through the window. And the sun suddenly, seems to have a different, deeper yellow in its light on the carpet.
It is not only pleasure sending me back to stare at that plot of soil, it is real conflict. The question is the same each year—what method should we use? The last few years we put black plastic between the rows, and it worked perfectly. But plastic looks so industrial, so unromantic, that I have gradually moved over to hay(草). We cut a lot of hay and it does improve the soil. Besides, it looks lovely and comes to us free.
The attractions of gardening, I think, at least for some gardeners, are moral(道德的). Whenever life seems pointless and difficult to grasp, you can always get out in the garden and get something done. Also, your parental instinct comes into play because helpless living things are depending on you, requiring training and protection from enemies. In some cases, as with beans and cucumbers, your children—as it were, begin to turn upon on you in great numbers, growing more and more each morning and threatening to follow you into the house.
32、What can we infer about the author from the first paragraph?
A. He always likes buying carrots. B. He always makes decisions in April.
C. He takes good care of the small land. D. He enjoys the garden in spring.
33、What drove the author to abandon plastic?
A. High price. B. Environmental concern.
C. Poor function. D. Personal preference.
34、Why does the author say the attractions of gardening are moral?
A. Gardening requires wisdom. B. Gardening offers moral advice.
C. Gardening improves parenting. D. Gardening brings spiritual content.
35、What is the best title for the text?
A. To Garden or Not B. What I Garden for
C. How to Garden D. Wisdom from Gardens
三、七选五
36、How to Have a Successful Teenage Life

解析：Back in 2000, I had just finished my first year at music college when I applied to take a year off from college. I wanted to experience new cultures, so I bought a one-way ticket to Paris. At that point, I spoke no French, or any other foreign languages. I spent six months overall in Paris, working at night in a youth hotel. I started to learn and improve my French quickly, mostly because I had to. I was dealing with customers every day after all. During the long nights at the hotel I met travelers from all over the world and knew then and there that I wanted to be able to communicate with people in their own language. The following year I went back to college in London. I started hanging around and playing music with a lot of Spanish people who were always fun. I couldn’t speak much Spanish, but I was up for learning. After learning French, it wasn’t all that hard to learn Spanish. I became close friends with one guy in particular and in the next two years, I spoke more Spanish than English from day to day. And a few years later, I also learned Portuguese.

54、答案：
Paragraph 1:
Emma started crying. Miss Maria went to her and wiped her tears and said, “You understand now my dear? That’s how everyone else felt when you laughed at them. My child, instead of laughing, you can help the other person to get out of the uncomfortable situation. Trust me, it will make you feel much better.” Emma realized how bad she made everyone else feel.
Paragraph 2:
Emma said sorry to everyone, especially Elva. “Elva, I am so sorry. I didn’t know you were hurt this much. I apologize to you for my foolish behavior.” “I understand. It’s OK and I forgive you. You realized your mistake and that’s enough for me, as long as you don’t do the same thing again,” Elva replied. “No! I have learned my lesson. From now on, I’ll help people in trouble rather than laugh at them for being stuck or unable to figure out the answer.” Afterward, Emma and Elva became friends and helped each other out when in trouble.
