    Leaves are nature’s food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots. They take a gas called carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and CO2 into glucose（葡萄糖）.Glucose is a kind of sugar. Plants use glucose as food for energy to grow. The way plants turn water and CO2 into glucose is called photosynthesis (光合作用).That means “putting together with light .” A chemical called chlorophyll helps make photosynthesis happen. Chlorophyll is green. It gives plants their green colour. As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter. This is how the trees “know” to begin getting ready for winter.
    During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis .The trees will rest, and live on the food they have stored during the summer. They begin to close their food-making  factories. The green Chlorophyll disappears from the leaves. Then, we begin to see yellow and orange colours. A few of these colors stay in the leaves all the time. We just can’t see them in the summer, because they are covered up by the green Chlorophyll.
    Red and purple colors we see in leaves are made mostly in the autumn. In some trees, like maples, glucose is stored in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn turn this glucose into red. The brown color of trees like oaks is made from wastes left in the leaves.
    52 the underlined word“chlorophyll” in the first Para means_________in Chinese.
    A 叶绿素           B 氧气          C 胡萝卜素      D 蛋白质
    53 The way _________is called photosynthesis.
    A  Plants get CO2 from the air           B  plants take water from the ground
    C  plants turn water and CO2 into glucose.  D Plants use glucose as food for energy to grow.
    54 The gas called carbon dioxide is from the_________
    A  ground      B roots        C air      D sunlight
    55 Which of the following is not true?
    A．when autumn and winter come, the days get shorter and shorter.
    B．During winter trees rest and live on the food they store during the summer.’
    C．During winter small amounts of yellow and orange colors are kept in the leaves all the time.
    D．Trees begin to stop making food in summer.

    （7）------中偏难题
    People generally use spices （香料） every day when preparing meals．Most of these spices are readily available in local supermarkets．However, in the 15th and 16th centuries, spices were as valuable as gold or diamonds．Spices are small plants or parts of plants, such as ginger, pepper, vanilla, and cinnamon, which are used to add flavor to our food． 1   Such a use for spices actually goes all the way back to Roman times．The Romans used spices such as cumin and coriander to help preserve food．
    The spices came to Europe from countries to the east, such as the islands in the East Indies, Sri Lanka, and India． 2   Because of the long journeys involved, they were very expensive．
    European sailors began to look for routes to these countries themselves in order to bring back the spices by sea．In 1498, a Portuguese explorer named Vasco Da Gama reached an East Indies island called Calicut． 3   In 1519, another Spanish explorer, Ferdinand Magellan, found a new trade route by sailing west across the Atlantic Ocean, around the southern tips of both South America and Africa, and back to Europe．
    4   Portugal was the leader until the end of the 16th century．Spain was in control during much of the next 100 years．Then, Holland took over．The Dutch controlled the East Indies, but, in 1780, England defeated them in a famous war． 5   They treated the people there badly and made them submit to the British government.
    India finally became independent from Britain in the 1940s．Today, it is still called “the land of spices”．In fact, at present India produces 2.5 million tons of spices each year and produced more types of spices than any other country．
    A．For centuries, Arab traders had carried the spices over land and sold them to European countries．
    B．For the next four centuries, Western countries raced each other for control of the spice trade in these new countries, which they called the “New World.”
    C．Though they might not be as valuable today as gold or diamonds, spices are still big business around the globe.
    D．Six years earlier, Spanish explorer Christopher Columbus had been looking for spices when he discovered America.
    E．The English then moved from the islands into India.
    F．The history of spice is almost as old as human civilization.
    G．In those times, spices also helped keep meat from spoiling.

    "Friendship is one of the basic bonds between human beings. While the characteristics of friendship might vary from one country to another, people from all cultures not only enjoy friends but need them.
    　　Many studies have shown that teenagers who have no friends often suffer from psychological disorders. It has been shown that teenagers, perhaps more than any other age group, need companionship and a sense of belonging. The negative consequences of loneliness have also been observed among the elderly. The death of a spouse often leaves a widow or a widower totally bereft. If, however, they are surrounded by friends and relatives and if they are able to express their feelings, they are more likely to recover from their grief。
    　　“No man is an island.” In other words, we are all parts of society. We all need the love, admiration, respect and moral support of other people. If we are fortunate, our friends will provide us with all of these necessary aspects of life.
    　　As most people observe, there are many levels of friendship. The degree or intensity of friendship varies depending on the personality of the individuals involved and the context of the relationships. Outgoing persons enjoy being surrounded by many people whereas shy persons are perhaps content with fewer but more intense friendships。
    　　Everyone is not equally open with all their friends. The degree of closeness is determined by many factors. Close friends can be formed at any stage in one’s life but they are usually very rare. Not very many people have more than a few really close friends. Irrespective of the level of closeness, all friendships are based on reciprocity（互惠）, honesty and a certain amount of love and affection。
    72 “No man is an island”(Line 1, Para. 3) implies that ______________。
    　　A. everyone is a part of an island               B. man cannot be an island
    　　C. everyone is just a part of society     D. society is an island
    73. The degree of closeness of friendship mainly depends on_____________。
    　　A. age            B. belonging          C. personality               D. culture
    74. The author thinks that close friends_____________________。
    　　A. can be easily formed when one is young         B. cannot be long-lasting
    　　C. are not rare for everyone                               D. are rare for most people
    75 .The word “irrespective”(Last sentence, Para. 5) means______________________。
    A.not respecting             B. dishonoring              C. regardless.  D. considering

    Dear Students,
    I am delighted to be your guest.
    I would like to tell you about myself. I have been a news reporter
    for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons. The work is sometimes difficult. I have seen famines, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.

For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself. She did not stop until she found her son. He was alive.
    Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious condition. He had undergone twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital. I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.
    In life, we need role models that we can admire and learn from. When my life is difficult, I try to remember the courage and goodness of these three people.
