三、 阅读理解(本题共13小题；每小题2分, 满分26分)

Dear Linda,

Your brother sounds like a very selfish person. But I want to know what makes him act this way. Since he seems to be doing this on purpose, maybe the only way to do with the problem is to try to find the cause.

I think your brother is probably hurt in some ways. Perhaps he feels unsafe because he is not a full part of the family. He could be displeased with your mother’s love for the rest of you over him.

It is wrong to fight anger with anger though you think it is a need to help your mother. I suggest you try to help your brother by treating him with more care and love. It must be hard for him to grow up in a family where his sisters have their real mother but he doesn’t. Try to let him know that you care about him. With time he may come to know how lucky he is and start to treat you all with the same kindness that you give him.

Yours Truly,

Sue Clarke

25．From the letter we may know that ________.

A．the brother has no sisters in the family

26．Sue Clarke suggests Linda that ________.

A．she should treat her brother with more warmth

B．she should fight against her brother with anger

D．she should find the result of her brother’s action

27．Sue Clarke thinks Linda’s brother ________.

A．is a troublesome young man

B．should have known Linda treats him with kindness

C．should be a foolish boy

Our lives have become mare digital (数字的) in the modern world. We can study, find information and chat with friends through computers and phones. However, spending a lot of time working, reading, texting and gaming through digital devices (设备) is bad for our eyes.

According to the American Optometric Association, 70 to 75 percent of computer workers have eye problems.

Digital eyestrain (眼睛疲劳) is one of the most common problems. People with digital eyestrain may get headaches, dry and red eyes, eye pain and other problems.

These problems have started to increase among children. “Children get cellphones at younger ages and are using them very often during the day,” Sarah Hinkley, spokeswoman (女发言人) for the American Optometric Association, told USA Today.

The good news is that there are many things you can do to reduce digital eyestrain.

When using a computer, first sit in your chair and reach out your arm. Your hand should rest comfortably on the screen, as if you’re high-fiving the screen. Increase text size until your eyes feel comfortable.

When you are using a mobile phone, keep it at least 34 cm from your eyes and just below eye level. Try not to use it under sunlight.

Remember to take a 20-20-20 break: every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet (about 6 meters) away.

28．What can we know from Sarah Hinkley?

A．Children can easily get eyestrain.

B．Many children are experiencing digital eyestrain.

C．Children mustn’t use cellphones.

D．Using cell phones can cause many problems.

29．When we use phones, we should ________.

A．keep them close to our eyes

B．turn off the lights

C．use them under sunlight 

D．keep them just below eye level

30．The story gives advice on ________.

1. how to use computers safely b. how to use phones safely
2. when to take breaks from electronic devices d. how to clean your eyes

A．acd                  B．abd                        C．abc                        D．bcd

I am an eighth-grade student who suffers from asthma (患有哮喘). My asthma was so bad that I had to miss a lot of school last year. My parents and doctors were worried about my health and my education (学业). Together they came up with a way to begin reaching out to schools.

Do you know that there is something you can do to provide a safe environment for your students? The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute says that you can take these simple steps to give a safe environment for kids.

• Provide good indoor air condition. The building should be free of dust (尘土).
• No smoking in school or during any school activities.
• Review students’ asthma action plans. The plan should be filled out by the student’s doctor and should list what to do if the student’s asthma gets worse at school. The school nurse should work with the student to help him or her follow the plan during the school day.
• Advise teachers to keep furry pets and other animals out of the classroom.
• Heavy cleaning should be done after school hours every day.
• Instruct all teachers and students about asthma and how to help students who have it stay safe.

If you have missed anything on this list, please take action now. The health of your students depends on (取决于) your actions, and their education does, too!

Sincerely, Guo Xiwang

The poem Farewell to Liu Yu was an ancient poem written by Li Qi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. The poem was made up of eight lines, which can be divided into two parts.

The first four lines were the first part of the poem, which started with writing the views. This poet used the cold reeds in the wind to lightly point out the parting emotions (离别情绪). However, on the moment of parting, Li Qi didn’t write the sad views to express his sorrow, but focused on the white waves of the autumn river, describing the environment. This way of writing has made this parting poem not so sad.

The second part of the poem expressed Li’s best wishes after Li Yu’s leaving. He wished that the weather would change from rainy to clear, and the ship would sail with the tide, so that his friend’s journey could go smoothly. Li also did well in turning his feelings into pictures. For example,  in the last line, the wild goose is crying, making the parting feeling alive.

34．Which word rhymes with “west”?

A．grow               B．crest                      C．blow                      D．hilltop

35．What does underlined word “sorrow” mean?

A．Happiness        B．Excitement             C．Sadness.                 D．Surprise.

36．Which of the following is written in the same way as the last underlined poem?

A．Hope is a good breakfast, but it is a bad supper.

B．When she heard the bad news, a river of tears poured out.

C．The rain sang and jumped out of the clouds.

D．You are the whole world to me, and the moon and the stars.

37．According to the poem, which of the following is true?

A．It was rainy when Li said farewell to Liu.

B．It was spring when Li said farewell to Liu.

C．Li was happy when writing the poem.

Eggs are very important at Easter. It is because an egg means the start of a new life. The eggs come in special boxes. When kids open them, they find a chocolate egg in two halves. And inside there are candies. Kids get to eat a lot of chocolate at Easter. At Easter kids also boil eggs and paint them pretty colors.

…………

参考答案

1．A

【详解】句意：——请交试卷， 吉米！——但我还没有检查， 史密斯先生。

考查动词短语。hand in上交；take out拿出；look at看；go through经受。根据“the paper”以及“But I haven’t checked it yet”可知，此处说的是上交试卷，故选A。

2．D

【详解】句意：——我们已经为野餐准备好了一切。——你的意思是我不必带任何东西吗？

考查情态动词的用法。can’t不能；mustn’t禁止；couldn’t不能，表示过去时态；needn’t不必。根据“We’ve got everything ready for the picnic.”可知，已经准备了一切，所以不必再带任何东西了，应填needn’t“不必”。故选D。

3．D

【详解】句意：——妈妈，你的T恤真漂亮。你能给我买一件作为生日礼物吗？——当然。所有的衣服在11月11日都比以便宜多了。我们可以用更少的钱买同样的衣服。

考查形容词辨析和形容词比较级。expensive贵的；more expensive更贵的；cheap便宜的；cheaper更便宜的。根据“much…than before”可知，空处使用比较级，排除A和C；根据“We can buy the same clothes with less money.”可知，衣服比之前更便宜。
