    Seeing a volcano erupt (喷发) is a wonderful experience, and you can really feel the heat by climbing to the summit of Pacaya for a close-up view. There are guided tours every day up this highly active volcano from Antigua. Giving travelers a chance to see Mother Nature at her most powerful (强大的).
    Pacaya is an easy drive from Antigua, a beautiful city with many colorful houses along its old streets that are turned into art-works during its Holy Week festival. No matter when you come to Antigua, you won’t miss the Pacaya-tour companies.
    But climbing Pacaya is no easy job: it is 2,560 metres high and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly one-step-forward and two-step-back movements. As you climb, you hear the sounds of eruptions high above. Smoke, hot remains from recent eruptions begin to line the path as you near the active summit: the McKenney Cone (火山锥). Just as though you were going to walk over to the edge of the cone, the road turns to the left and up to the safety of the old, inactive summit.

    Many tours are timed so that you arrive at the cone of the volcano in plenty of time for sunset and the full scene of the erupting red lava (熔岩) in the darkening sky. On a good day the view from the summit is really exciting. The active mouth boils, sending red lava over its sides, and once in a while shoots hot streams up to 100 metres into the air. There is a strong bad smell in the air even if you take care to be upwind of the cone. As evening turns deeper into the night, the burning lava quietly falls down the side of the volcano. For you, too, it is time to get down.
    小题1:Many tours are timed for people to _____.
    A．get down the mountain in time when night falls
    B．avoid the smell from the upwind direction of the cone
    C．enjoy the fantastic eruption against the darkening sky
    D．appreciate the beauty of the 2,560-metre-high mountain
    小题2:The word “summit” appears several times in the passage. It means _____.
    A．remained, cooled rocks along the path
    B．loud sound and terrible smell in the air
    C．the most exciting happening in a place
    D．the top point of a mountain or hill
    小题3:What is the main purpose of this passage?
    A．To have more tourists come to Pacaya.
    B．To describe the beauty of Pacaya.
    C．To introduce guided tours to Pacaya.
    D．To explain the power of nature at Pacaya.

    小题1:C
    小题2:D
    小题3:A

    试题分析：这篇文章主要介绍了看火山喷发是极好的经历。很多游客到Pacaya山顶去观看活火山。游客有机会看到大自然的强大。
    小题1:细节理解题。根据Many tours are timed so that you arrive at the cone of the volcano in plenty of time for sunset and the full scene of the erupting red lava (熔岩) in the darkening sky.句意：很多游客计算好时间，这样你可以到达火山锥，有足够的时间看日落以及红色熔岩在黑色天空下喷发的全景。故选C。
    小题2:词义判断题。根据But climbing Pacaya is no easy job: it is 2,560 metres high and reaching the summit takes two to three hours of seemingly one-step-forward and two-step-back movements.句意：但是爬Pacaya不是一件容易的事，它有2，560米高，到达顶部要花2至3个小时，似乎走一步，退两步。可知应选D。
    小题3:推理判断题。这篇文章主要告诉我们参观Pacaya是一次极好的经历，能够看到火山喷发的壮丽景色，是为了吸引更多人去参观此地。故选A。

    We all, at one time or another , were like a rock star, singing and dancing along to our favourite song. Most of us have done this in our own room when we were kids or even when we grew up. Me? I love to do that when I drive! I turn on the radio, find a song that I can sing along, and soon my arms are in the air. I am moving along to the music. Most of the time, I do this on my way to work.
    Yes, that is true. I will be in my nice work clothes in my car. Someone may look at me strangely or even laugh at me when I stopped at a traffic light. Personally I love to get lost in the music. That can lead me to share with you the importance of being silly!
    The meaning of the word silly, according to the dictionary is : stupid, foolish and nonsensical. I know many people do not want to look foolish. So they are always serious in their life, but in fact that is really stupid.
    No one is perfect, I repeat: no one is perfect. I don’t care how educated, how thin, how beautiful, how simple, how frugal(朴素的), how rich, and so on … No one is perfect! So why pretend(假装) to be something you are not?  
    Life is so short…_________, so why waste a single second on being so “perfect”?
    When we were kids, we had no idea of fear and we had no care in the world so we could do things without worrying about how we appeared to others. However, as we grew up, we lost that kind of feeling.
    So don’t be afraid to be silly. The next time you feel down, go and turn on your favourite song , sing and dance along just like there is no tomorrow. Or watch something that makes you laugh. Trust me, you will feel a whole lot better, and who doesn’t want to feel good.
    小题1:While driving to work, the writer often _______.
    A．sings and moves along to the music
    B．laughs at others at the traffic lights
    C．pretends to be serious
    D．watches his favourite movies
    小题2:What does the writer want to tell us in Paragraph Two?
    A．He likes wearing his work clothes.
    B．Being silly can make him relaxed.
    C．He likes listening to music.
    D．Laughing at others is impolite.
    小题3:Which of the following can be put in the blank in Paragraph Five?
    A．Students these days often have a lot of worries.
    B．Everyone will face some difficulties in their life.
    C．You never know when this beautiful journey will be over.
    D．No one knows when they will die.
    小题4:Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?
    A．How to be a perfect manB．The importance of being silly
    C．Life is so shortD．How to be a rock star

    Goog morning, Ladies and gentleman. My topic is “________”.
    Now in the 21st century, advertising is more and more important for people. Why? I think it is because through advertising, people, especially the businessmen, can introduce their products to the people all over the world. Because of this, many companies spend a lot of money on advertising. As we all know, there are many advertisements which are very interesting and popular. For example, Michael Jordan made an interesting advertisement for Nike. From this you can see how the companies make their products known to the world.
    People can make a lot of money through advertising. It is known that many famous singers and movie stars make money in this way. However, I don’t think this is a good way for them to make money, because they are not the professional advertisers, especially those who advertise in medicine advertisements.
    Nowadays, advertising not only means making the products known, but also means make ourselves known to people around us. Living today, we have to make people believe in us if we want to do important jobs. But how can this be done? We should first let other people know our good side: the good habits and abilities we have. In short, we should always remember to advertise ourselves to others. As I said before, advertising is not only important for companies but also for everyone, for all human beings. This is the most interesting thing about advertising.
    小题1:The best topic to fill in the line in the first paragraph is “___________”.    
    A．The Importance of Advertising
    B．Making Money through Advertising
    C．Advertising Ourselves
    D．Advice on Advertisements
    小题2:This passage may be a (an) ____________.
    A．advertisementB．storyC．speechD．report
    小题3:According to the passage, which of the following is not right?
    A．Many companies are willing to spend money on advertising.
    B．Advertising can make some people rich.
    C．People can introduce their products through advertisements.
    D．Advertising in not necessary for anyone.

    From 8：30 pm to 9:30pm on Saturday, March 23rd, 2013, a great number of people around the world turned off the lights for Earth Hour. It is a bit like an environmental New Year, providing a chance to help care for our earth and make people around the world learn how important it is to do that.
    What did you do for Earth Hour this year? Let’s share the Earth Hour stories.
    Emma was on one of the mountains near the city and took photos of my city. It was great to watch the stars and the moon after a busy day that she could enjoy this relaxing moment.
    Albert works as a waiter in a restaurant. Their restaurant was still open even for Earth Hour as they got lots of reservations(预定) that night. So they spent the hour working by candlelight. And guess what? Their customers loved that and promised to come for next Earth Hour.
    Brandon turned off the main power to his house and went for a walk for Earth Hour. It was a little strange to walk in the dark, but it was only for one hour. Just think of what it must have been like before the invention of light bulb!
