Ⅰ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)

A

Every person has their own way of saying things, their own special expressions.Many everyday American expressions are based on colours.

Red is a hot colour. Americans often use it to express heat.They may say they are red hot about something unfair. When they are red hot they are very angry about something. The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their colour and their fiery taste. Fast loud music is popular with many people. They may say the music is popular with many people. They may say the music is red hot，especially the kind called Dixieland jazz.

Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say they're in the pink when they're in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the 20th century.It probably came from many babies who were born with a nice pink colour showing good health.

Blue is a cool colour. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hot music. Blues is slow, sad and soulful. Duke Ellington and his orchestra recorded a famous song—Mood Indigo—about the deep blue colour, indigo. In the words of the song：“You aren't blue till you've had that Mood Indigo.” Someone who is blue is very sad.

The colour green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural colour for humans. A person who has a sick feeling in his stomach may say he feels a little green. A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green.

Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as his friend's, like a fast new car. That person may say he is green with envy. Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars of greenbacks.Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the colour of the back side of the paper money.

The colour black is often used in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day.The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day. A blacklist is illegal now. But at one time, some businesses refused to employ people who were on a blacklist for belonging to unpopular organizations.

When I was about twelve, I headed to a restaurant for dinner with my family. It was a windy winter night. As my mom and I headed towards the restaurant from our car, a girl about my age and her mother came up to us. They asked if we had any spare dollars. My mom immediately asked where they kept their things. They pointed to an old car in the parking across the street. The girl said there were six of them living in that car, the same size as my own family.

My mom said she had something to do after handing the people a few dollars. She sent me inside the restaurant with my dad and my three siblings (兄弟姐妹)．But she didn't come.

Later, I found out she had gone home and emptied our cupboards into a few bags. Then, she brought that food over to the car and handed the bags to the family. I wasn't there when that part happened, but I can imagine the joy it brought to their faces.

A few days later, when I actually found out about what she had done, I asked her why she helped those people. She told me that they were not lucky. I remember the face of that girl who had asked us for dollars; she was the same age as me, yet our lives were so different.

Here I stood, dressed in almost new clothes, headed to a restaurant and then back home to the bedroom I shared with my younger sister. I remember thinking that the girl didn't have any food to eat and that she was heading back to a cold car shared with five other people.

After painting this picture in my mind, I understood my mom. I will never forget what she did that night. And that night I also learned one of the best lessons she taught.

At the age of 16, Clara Barton was advised to become a teacher since she was quite shy. She taught in Massachusetts for ten years，and was invited to Bordentown, New Jersey to teach in a school. She saw that these communities needed complimentary education for their citizens, and she took action by creating a free school, one of the first in her state.But later, officials named a male as the head teacher instead of her. Disappointed, she left her job and moved to Washington D. C．， becoming the first woman employed by the US Patent Office.

Clara Barton was forever changed by her experience with the army in the Civil War.  She saw doctors use leaves when dealing with injuries since they had nothing else. The medical supplies were well behind the army，who were moving faster than their medical supply lines.She brought in a truck of medical supplies that she collected personally some years ago. Miss Barton continued to work on the battlefields throughout the war.

She helped in the recognition of 13,000 dead Union soldiers.This non­stop work made her fully exhausted.Following the advice of her doctor, she traveled to Europe where she recovered energy and enriched herself.

While in Europe, and still in poor health, Miss Barton was moved by the hardship on people caused by the France­Prussia war. She helped in their relief effort，which encouraged her to create the Red Cross, which served the whole army and common people under a neutral flag.

Clara Barton returned to America and then began the establishment (建立)of the American Red Cross.The US government did not think there would ever be another war after the Civil War. But she made them believe that the Red Cross would be valuable to serve in times of natural disasters as well. This was her lasting legacy(遗产), an agency that still provides aid to all people today.

Ⅱ.阅读填句(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)

Playing sports is a lot of fun. Getting hurt is not.__16__

Wear protective equipment.

The equipment you wear depends on the sport you play.Helmets(头盔) are the most common protective equipment.They protect your head while you're playing football, baseball，softball，biking，skateboarding，and so on.

Warm up.

__17__ Doing some stretching(伸展) can get you prepared to hit the field. By warming up, you get yourself ready to play. Warming up your muscles and practicing a sport help keep you safe, too.

Know the rules of the games.

Traffic lights help prevent crashes between the many cars that drive on the roads together. This works because drivers know the rules and follow them—at least most of the time.__18__When players know the rules of the game, fewer injuries happen. For example, you know that in soccer you can't come from behind, crash into a player's legs, and steal the ball. It's legal—and safer—to go after the ball rather than the player.

__19__

Some rules don't have anything to do with scoring points.Some rules are just about protecting other people. For example，a diver would make sure that the pool was clear before diving in. Otherwise, he or she might land on someone else.

__20__

This is a really important one.If you love sports, you may get right back in the game, even after an injury. But playing when you're hurt is a bad idea. It can lead to an even worse injury.

A．Watch out for others.

B．Don't do too much exercise.

C．It's the same way with sports.

D．Don't play when you're injured.

E．It's not a good idea to just go to the field and start playing.

F．You and the other players know what to expect from each other.

G．Take these steps to prevent injuries so you can stay in the game.

Later, dozens of newspaper reporters wrote about this 11­year­old girl's honesty, even when it __27__ her the contest.

But that's just it：She would know she was wrong. It's been said, “If you __32__， you make yourself cheap.” This young girl was strong and smart enough to prize her own __33__ and character more than the prize from a spelling __34__.Her respect for herself was more important than any __35__others might give her for winning a contest. She knew she would have to live with herself and the __36__ she made in that moment will have a long­lasting influence.

It's so true that the choices you make today __37__what you are tomorrow.Our children will __38__ our behavior much more than our advice. So if we want them to __39__ to be honest, we must show them the way by being honest ourselves.  Remember, our kids are __40__what we do and how we live even when we don't think they see or know.

Dear_Harry，

Nice_to_receive_your_e­mail._I'd_like_to_tell_you_about_my_favourite_sport,_swimming.

At the age of six, I began to learn swimming from my parents, who are good at it. Now I often go swimming with my friends in my spare time. Besides, I go to sports school every weekend, where I have learned many swimming skills.Swimming does good to my health, and I have made many friends as well.

My favourite swimmer is Ye Shiwen, who won two gold medals at 2012 London Olympic Games at the age of 16. I hope I can swim as well as her and have the opportunity to take part in the Olympic Games in the future.

Yours，

Li_Hua
