    Finding something to do during the school holidays isn't always easy, but one mum has set up a new website to help families find activities and events in Norfolk.
    Fiona Anthony of Bawburgh, near Norwich, was persuaded by her friends to set up the website, Info4Families, when they noticed she always knew what events were happening in the county（县）.
    "I am always looking for things to keep my children occupied and Norfolk has such a lot going on," she said.
    Detail（细节）from Info4Families     
    "But I found it quite difficult to get information about events and activities for children and families, as there was no central information point and it would often involve collecting leaflets（传单） and checking notice boards at different places.
    "So I decided to set up a website which would allow people to find things to do, without leaving home," she added.
    Fiona was also concerned that some events she had booked had to be cancelled（取消） because not enough people wanted to go.
    "It is a real shame that some parents can’t find the events and some event organisers don’t get the numbers they need. I want to help bring the two together," said Fiona.
    The website gives details on regular, one-off and free events, and includes activities which children can do on their own or with the family.
    Parents can look for activities by category（种类）and by age so that they can find events suitable for their children’s interests and needs. The site also links to local places of interest, such as libraries, museums and cinemas.
    小题1: Fiona Anthony set up the website __________.
    A．to tell people how to spend their holidays at home
    B．to design some activities for event organizers
    C．to help people choose activities and events they’re interested in
    D．to make money by providing some useful information
    小题2:The underlined word “occupied” in the third paragraphs probably means “________”.
    A．busyB．happyC．freeD．tired
    小题3:From the website Info4Families, we can easily access to the following websites about Norfolk except ________.
    A．museumsB．schoolsC．cinemasD．libraries
    小题4:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．Not all the events on the website are free of charge.
    B．Fiona always knew what events were happening in her country.
    C．Children must take part in the activities provided by the website together with their parents.
    D．some organizers often feel disappointed that not enough people take part in their activities.

    小题1:C

    There are hundreds of things that your parents controlled for you when you were a child. And it’s a good thing, too — kids need this kind of protection and assistance, because they aren’t mature enough to take care of themselves and make careful decisions on their own.
    But eventually, kids grow up and become teens. It’s totally normal for teens to create their own opinions, thoughts, and values about life; it’s what prepares them for adulthood. But as you change and grow into this new person who makes his or her own decisions, your parents may have a difficult time adjusting themselves to it.
    In most families, it’s this adjustment that can cause a lot of fighting between teens and parents. Teens get angry because they feel parents don’t respect them and aren’t giving them space to do what they like, and parents get angry because they aren’t used to not being in control or they disagree with the teens’ decisions.
    It’s easy for feelings to get very hurt when there are conflicts like these. And more complicated issues can cause even bigger arguments, because your parents will always be intent on protecting you and keeping you safe, no matter how old you are.
    The good news about fighting with your parents is that in many families the arguing will lessen as parents get more comfortable with the idea that their teens have a right to certain opinions. It can take several years for parents and teens to adjust to their new roles, though. In the meantime, concentrate on communicating with your parents as best you can.
    Sometimes this can feel impossible — like they just don’t see your point of view and never will. But talking and expressing your opinions can help you gain more respect from your parents, and you may be able to reach a compromise that makes everyone happy. Keep in mind, too, that your parents were teens once and that in most cases, they can relate to what you’re going through.
    小题1:Why do parents always want to control their children?
    A．They are afraid to lose their children.
    B．They want to protect their children.
    C．They don’t believe the ability of their children.
    D．They can’t accept their children are growing.
    小题2: What does the underlined word “lessen” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
    A．disappear.B．increase.
    C．strengthen.D．decrease.
    小题3:The author suggested that teenagers ____.
    A．fight with their parents bravely for their rights
    B．obey their parents without any doubt
    C．communicate with their parents actively
    D．persuade their parents in as many ways as possible
    小题4: It can be inferred from the passage that ____.
    A．most parents will give in while fighting with their children
    B．the conflict between parents and teenagers can be solved
    C．the only way for teens to get freedom is to leave home
    D．only few parents do well in facing the growth of their children

    IV 阅读理解（共 20小题；每小题 2分，满分 40分）
    阅读下列短文，然后从各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    We all know, especially for me who like travelling very much, travelling can be a way to gain life experiences, especially during Spring Break----a week long school vacation in the United States. But what if you’re a student and don’t have enough money for a trip? Don’t worry. Here are some useful suggestions.
    Save: this probably is the most important preparation for travelling. Cut expenses to fatten your wallet so you’ll have more choices about where to go and how to get there.
    Plant ahead: Don’t wait until the last minute to plan your trip. Tickets may cost more when bought on short notice. Giving yourself several months to get ready can mean security(安全) and saving.
    Do your homework : No matter where you go, research the places you will visit. Decide what to see. Travel books will provide information on the cheapest hotels and restaurants.
    Plan sensibly, Write down what you expect to spend for food and hotels. Stick to your plan or you may not have enough money to cover everything.
    Travel in groups: Find someone who is interested in visiting the same places. By traveling with others you can share costs and experiences.
    Work as you go: Need more money to support your trip? Look for work in the places you visit.
    Go off the beaten path: Tourist cities may be expensive. You may want to rethink your trip and go to a lesser-known area. Smaller towns can have many interesting act ivies and sights.
    Pack necessary things: The most important things to take are not always clothes: Remember to take medicine in case you get sick and snacks in case you cannot find a cheap restaurant.
    Use the Internet: The Net can help to save money. Some useful websites include www.Travelocity.com. www.bargains-lowestfare.cm and www.Ecoomictravel.co
    By planning sensibly, even students can enjoy the travel. Your travel experiences will be remembered for a lifetime.
    56.This passage is about______.
    A. how to plan your travel              B. how to travel with enough money
    C. how to make your travel interesting   D. how to get life experience
    57. Before your trip , the first thing you should do is ____.
    A. to make a plan for the route      B. to get information in the Internet
    C. to save money by spending less   D. to buy tickets in advance
    58.During your trip,_______.
    A. you need more shoes than clothes     B. you shouldn’t look for work all the way
    C. you can gain valuable life experience   D. you should forget to do your homework

    He only finished fourth in this year's Super Boy talent show. But it didn't stop him capturing (俘获) the hearts of thousands of fans. He can hit high notes with ease. And he is very modest. Zhang Jie,25,shed(流) sweat and tears all the way through the competition, but he never gave up.
    “No matter how life treats him, he always fights back bravely ,”said Wu Chunyan, a Senior 2 student in Hubei.“He has never lost his dream of being a singer.”The road to fame is always rocky, and Zhang is no exception.

    A handsome middle­aged man walked quietly into the cafe and sat down. Before he ordered，he couldn’t help but notice a group of younger men at the table next to him. It was obvious they were making fun of something about him and it wasn’t until he remembered he was wearing a small pink ribbon(丝带) on the lapel of his suit that he became aware of what the joke was all about.
    The man pretended not to notice it，but the whisper and laughter began to get to him. He looked one of the rude young men straight into the eye，placed his hand beneath the ribbon and asked，“This？”
    With that the young men all began to laugh out loud. The man he spoke to said，“Hey，sorry，man, but we were just commenting on how pretty your little pink ribbon looks against your blue jacket！”
    The middle­aged man calmly invited the joker to come over to his table, and politely seated him. As uncomfortable as he was, the young guy had to, not really sure why. In a soft voice，the middle­aged man said, “I wear this ribbon to bring awareness about breast cancer. I wear it in my mother’s honor.”
    “Oh, sorry. She died of breast cancer？”
    “No, she didn’t. She’s alive and well. But her breasts nourished me as a baby，and were a soft resting place for my head when I was scared or lonely as a little boy. I’m very grateful for my mother’s breasts, and her health.”
    “Umm,” the young replied “yeah.”
    “And I wear this ribbon to honor my wife” the man continued.
    “And she’s okay, too？”the young guy asked.
    “Oh, yes. She’s fine. Her breasts have been a great source of loving pleasure for both of us，and with them she nurtured and nourished our daughter 23 years ago. I’m grateful for my wife’s breasts，and her health.”
    “Uh, huh. And I guess you wear it to honor your daughter, also？”
    “No. It’s too late to honor my daughter by wearing it now...”
    Shaken and ashamed，the young guy said, “Oh, I’m so sorry，mister.”
    “So, in my daughter’s memory, too, I proudly wear this little ribbon, which allows me the opportunity to enlighten others. And here...”With this，he reached in his pocket and handed the young man a little pink ribbon. The young guy looked at it, slowly raised his head and asked, “...？”
