Passage 9(2013江苏南京鼓楼区,C)

    (One day Alice runs after a strange rabbit and comes into a deep hole. She becomes smaller when she wakes up the next day.She finds herself in a wonderland with many amazing things inside.)

    The Caterpillar (毛毛虫) and Alice looked at each other for some time in silence. At last the Caterpillar took the pipe out of its mouth,and said to her in a tired,sleepy voice.

    “Who are you?” asked the Caterpillar.

This opening for a talk couldn^ nicike Alice at ease. Alice re?plied,rather shyly,I—I hardly know,sir,just at present-at least I know who I was when I got up this morning,but I think I must have been changed several times since then.t,

    “What do you mean by that?” said the Caterpillar,     “Explain yourself! ”

    “ I can’t explain myself. I'm afraid,sir ,” said Alice, u because I'm not myself,you see."

    “ I don't see”’said the Caterpillar.

    “ I'm afraid I can't put it more clearly,”Alice replied ver po?litely, for I can't understand it myself. And being so many different sizes in a day is very puzzling."

    “It isn’t,” said the Caterpillar. “Well,perhaps you haven’t found it so yet ,” said Alice, But when you have to turn into a chrysalis (蛹苗) 一you will some day,you know—and then after that into a butterfly,1 think you’ll feel it a little stranger,won’t you?”

    “ Not a bit ,”said the Caterpillar.

    Well,perhaps your feelings may be different, said Alice, All I know is,it would make me feel very strange.

    “You!” said the Caterpillar scornfully. “Who are you?” The question brought them back again to the beginning of the talk. Alice felt a little angry because the Caterpillar was making such very short sentences.She drew herself up and said very seriously,1 think you ought to tell me who you are first."

    “Why?” said the Caterpillar.

    Here was another puzzling question. As Alice could not think out any good reason,and as the Caterpillar seemed to be very unpleasant,she turned away. “ Come back! ” the Caterpillar called after her. “ I've something important to tell you! ”

    This certainly gave Alice some hope. Alice turned and came back again.

Passage 7(2014 江苏镇江,C)

    “In my day,we had to walk a mile to school—uphill,both ways." That may sound like an old joke.Today,only 13  percent of kids walk to school,down from 66 percent 30  years ago.

    Studies show that fewer children are walking and biking to school,and more children are at risk of becoming overweight. Changing behaviors of children and parents requires creative ways that are safe and fun.

    A walking school bus can be both.

    It works like a bus,picking up  passengers along the way at designated (指定的) “bus stops” except everyone is walking!

    The Walking School Bus works as a supervised group of children walking to and from school along a safe and enjoyable set route.There are at least two parents in a group.One parent “drives” at the front of the bus,while the other parent supervises at the back. The different supervisors go with the children to and from school. Ad- ditional (增加的) parents may be needed depending on the walking environment.

    The “bus” can go as often as parents want to “ drive” it and children want to use it.This means that it can even work as little as one morning or afternoon each week. All children are welcome to join the bus even if their parents cannot be drivers. And the service is free.

    Socially,it's great because the children meet other children;oth?erwise they would only know by sight.

    “ My children have formed some good friendships because of the Walking Bus.The parents get to know other parents too!" a parent said From our experience of the Walking Bus,it has only been a meaningful thing.lt gets all of us walking more and the children do not complain about walking like they used to.

    Some kids said compared to the Walking School Bus,it's boring in a car when they were asked why not get into a car.

    Besides these,it might have a good effect on heavy traffic.

1. How many students walked to school 30 years ago?

   A. 66 percent. B. 13 percent.

   C. 30 percent.  D.53 percent.

2. What does the underlined word “supervised” mean in the pas?sage?

   A. controlled   B. explored

   C. required   D. improved 

3. What can the Walking School Bus NOT do to help the children    .

  A. make more friends 

  B. reduce the risk of being overweight 

  C. exercise more

  D. complain about walking

4. The best title of this passage is   

  A. A new way to exercise

  B. A new school bus

  C. A walking school bus

  D. Parents’ driving school bus

Passage 4 ( 2015江苏泰州靖江,C)

     Text messaging, or “texting ”,which allows people to send and receive messages on mobile phones, becomes very popular today.

    The advantages of texting are obvious. Texting helps to save money. If you have a few words to greet your family and friends on their birthdays or on some important festivals,sending messages can be cheaper than phone calling. Texting helps to save time.ICven if you want to send a message to 100 people,you can do il in one second.Texting helps you to ^talk^ to someone when he is too busy to answer the phone.Texting can also help you to “talk” to someone secretly if you don^ want others to hear what you are talking on the phone.These advantages are so amazing that many people are crazy about it. They hold mobile phones in hands all day long,send dozens of messages each day,and even text while driving or walking. However,texting has its disadvantage.Junk messages may come into your mobile phone box now and then. When your phone box gets too lull,you can't receive any more messages. You may therefore miss some important information.

    What's more,if you don't do texting properly,for example,texting while driving or walking,it can be dangerous.lt can cause in?juries and even death.lt was reported that about 6 ,000 people were killed and half a million were injured for this reason each year. In Fort Lee,a small town in New Jersey,theUSA. three people died be?cause they walked into traffic while texting in 2013.Two researchers at Stony Brook University,New York found that texters are 60% more probably to have an accident than others. When people are texting,they don^ notice other people or things around them.To reduce traffic accidents,all drivers of the UN are now not allowed to text while driving. About 32 countries have passed laws restricting (限制) the use of mobile phones while driving.

    Texting is a wonderful way of communication. However,only when we use it properly,can we fully enjoy the fun il brings.

1. How many advantages of texting are mentioned in the passage?

   A. Two. B. Three. C. Four.  D . Five.

  A. Texters are easier to have an accident.

  B. Texting is a good way of communication.

  C. 6,000 people were killed and injured.

  D. Many people text to greet family and friends.

3. The umderlined word “injuries” probably means    .

   A. 事故   B. 伤害   C. 争执   D. 死亡

4. Which of the following statements is wrong according to the pas?sage?

  A. Texting while driving or walking is dangerous.

  B. To reduce traffic accidents,all drivers of the UN are now not al?lowed to text while driving.

  C. Texting has more advantages than disadvantages,so we can use it any time.

  D. If you don't want others to hear what you are talking on the phone,you can text.

  A. we should do less texting

Passage 1 ( 2015 河北) 

    Many people believe that yellowing and wetness are the greatest enemy of stamps. In fact,stamps are afraid of not only wetness,but also light and dirty things.People protect their stamps in several different ways.

    To protect stamps,we should never touch the stamps with our hands.This avoids moving dirty things onto them.Stamp tweezers (慑 子) should be used in all conditions.

    Stamps are printed things.The colour will slowly disappear if the stamps are put in the light for a long time. So we should not put stamps in the light for long.Direct sunlight must be avoided as well.

    Wetness is an important problem for stamps.Some collectors will put stamps in separate plastic (塑料) bags. However,it is possible that some stamps have taken in some water from the air before they are put into the plastic bags.Stamps become yellow easily and rapidly after they take in wet air.To protect the stamps,some people also put the stamps into a special room which has a machine to keep the air cool and dry.However,not many people can afford that.

    To keep stamps,stamp collectors usually put them under plastic covers.lt is a common and simple way.This helps because the plastic cover keeps the stamps off the wet air. It also stops the fingers from touching the stamps.

    Some collectors prefer to store stamps inside a plastic box with desiccants (干燥剂) .However,we should take care not to let the stamps touch the desiccants.On top of that,don't take your stamps out on a wet day.
