43．The passage is most probably taken from ________.

A．a tour guide B．a science report C．a story book

    “How are you?” is a nice question. It’s a friendly way that people in the United States greet each other. But “How are you?” is also a very unusual question. It’s a question that often doesn’t have an answer. The person who asks “How are you?” hopes to hear the answer “Fine.”, even if the person’s friend isn’t fine. The reason is that “How are you?” isn’t really a question and “Fine.” isn’t really an answer. They are simply other ways of saying “Hello” or “Hi”.

Sometimes, people also don’t say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks “Do you agree?”, the other person might be thinking, “No, I disagree. I think you’re wrong.” But it isn’t very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say “I’m not so sure.” It’s a nicer way to say that you don’t agree with someone.

People also don’t say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says “I have to go now.” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse, “Someone’s at the door.” “Something is burning on the stove.” The excuse might be real, or it might not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn’t want to talk any more, but it isn’t polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn’t hurt the other person.

Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don’t say exactly what they are thinking. It’s an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it’s a part of the game of language.

44．When a person in the United States asks “How are you?”, he or she wants to hear “ ________”.

A．How are you? B．Fine. C．I don’t know.

45．When a person wants to disagree with someone, it is polite to say “________”.

A．You’re wrong. I disagree. B．I’m not so sure. C．I’m sure I disagree.

46．When a person says “I have to go now. Someone’s at the door.”, the person may be ________.

A．giving an excuse

B．hurting someone’s feeling

C．talking to a person at the door

47．One of the rules of the game of language is probably ________.

A．“Be polite.”

B．“Don’t disagree with other people.”

C．“Never say exactly what you’re thinking.”

Dear Joe,

I wrote you the letter to tell you about what the world used to be like when I was young. Life used to be very different then. We didn’t have cell phones when we wanted to talk to our friends. We didn’t have e-mails either, so we had to write letters.

When we traveled from town to town, we used to walk or ride horses or take a cart(马车). Later we had buses and very few people had cars. Air travel was a luxury and we used to dream of riding on an airplane but now everyone does. It’s so common.

Food is another big difference. There weren’t any supermarkets so we used to grow our own food. We would exchange some with people from other towns to buy the things we didn’t have. We didn’t have a refrigerator (冰箱) so we kept things cool in a special room downstairs.

But the biggest difference is electricity. We didn’t have any in our town! At night, we used to light candles when we wanted light and we burned coal (煤) or wood to keep warm. We didn’t have television. In summer, we used to go swimming in the river.

Life used to be very different, but we were happy.

Love,

Grandpa

48．The writer no longer ________.

A．hates carrots

B．has to grow his own food

C．buys food from the supermarket

49．As there wasn’t any electricity when the writer was young, ________.

A．he couldn’t keep warm

B．he used to light candles to get light

C．he went swimming

50．The underlined word “luxury” means “________” in Chinese.

A．奢侈品 B．消耗品 C．战利品

51．The letter talks mostly about what ________.

A．the writer used to do differently

B．the writer wants to do in the future

C．the boy should do differently

    When we think of paper, we think of newspapers and books. But there are many other uses. Only half of the world’s paper is used for books and newspapers.

Paper is very good for keeping you warm. You have perhaps seen homeless men sleep on a large number of newspapers. In Finland, it is sometimes -40℃ in winter. The farmers wear paper boots (靴子) in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.

Each year, more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper cups and plates for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper. Besides paper boots and shoes, you can wear paper hats, paper dresses, and paper raincoats. When you have used them once, you may throw them away and buy new ones.

The latest use of paper seems to be paper houses. These are not small houses for children to play in, but real, big houses for people to live in. You can buy a house with three rooms for about 500 dollars. You can put it up by yourself in a few hours, and you can use it for about five years.

52．Only half of the world’s paper is used to ________.

A．help the homeless people

B．print (印刷) newspapers and books

C．make chairs, tables and beds

53．The farmers in Finland wear paper boots in winter ________.

A．to feel much cooler B．to be cool C．to keep their feet warm

54．The latest use of paper seems to be paper houses. These houses are ________.

A．not expensive and easy to build up

B．made for children to play in or for homeless men to live in

C．made only for the rich people

55．After you use a paper raincoat, you may ________.

A．use it for a long time B．sell it to others C．throw it away

八、多任务混合阅读

阅读下面短文，完成相关任务。

When the teacher asks a question in class, Wang Xiaobin never raises his hand and this situation is very common at middle schools. This 15-year-old boy always waits for other classmates or the teacher to give the answer. “What if my answer is wrong?” Wang asks.

Wang said only six or seven students in his class raise their hands when a question is asked. “I think it’s a problem that may affect (影响) our studies, but I am afraid of making mistakes in front of my classmates.” he said.

When we asked the teacher, Hu Wei, why the students didn’t raise their hands, he said, “They lack (缺乏) confidence, they are afraid of showing off, or they’re afraid of losing face by giving wrong answers.”

To encourage students to raise their hands in class, Hu suggests that teachers should repeat the question, then try to guide and encourage students to offer their answers. Hu also advised students not to be shy, but brave enough to try.

Sun Pin, 16 of Fujian, always raises her hand as soon as she comes up with the answer, even if she isn’t sure she has gotten it right. Sun can’t understand why some of her classmates keep silent in class. She enjoys raising her hand a lot. “It keeps me enthusiastic(热情的) and confident to express my idea,” Sun said. “Raising my hand has really made me excellent.”

十、阅读信息摘录

请阅读下面有关资源保护的文章，根据所提供的信息，完成下面思维导图。

Although the world develops much faster and better, the resources on the earth get fewer and fewer. In order to protect them, something must be done.

Save water. Water is the source of life. No water, no life. So it’s very important for us to do so. Not only should we protect drinking water and stop polluting it, but also make full use of it.

Save electricity. It is crucial (极其重要的). We can’t imagine what the life will be like without it. Everyone should do his best to save electricity. Don’t forget to turn off the lights or other electric machines when we finish working.

Save forests. They are useful. Please stop cutting them down and use recycled paper instead. Make our world a green one to live in.

Recycle useful rubbish. Plenty of rubbish can be recycled like cans, papers, bottles, and so on. We can save resources in this way.

Dear Gina,

I’d like to tell you some good news. Heze Mudan Airport is about to open to air, which can provide people with a lot of employment opportunities. At present, the traffic in Heze is inconvenient and the travel is very crowded. It is very inconvenient for private cars to shuttle in the narrow lane. With the completion of the airport, the traffic will be very convenient. This will also promote the development of Heze tourism. Heze will become an international metropolis. Welcome to Heze! I will take you to see peony flowers and eat delicious food. I will meet you at Mudan airport.

Best wishes.

Yours,

Lisa
