In 1638, John Harvard donated some money and about four hundred books to a new university. This was the beginning of the library at Harvard University. The gift was so important that the university was named for John Harvard.

Thomas Bray began the first free lending library in the late 1600s. He set up more than 30 libraries in the American colonies. However, the idea for this kind of free library ended when Bray died in 1730. In 1731, Benjamin Franklin and some friends started the first subscription library in the United States. In a subscription library people pay money to become members, but they may borrow the books without paying again.

It was a happy time for me, because I could meet my friends on the way, and we would go to school together. There were just six classes in my school, and only about twenty students in each class. We spend most of our time playing. The mountains were our playground. I still remember the different kinds of flowers, the songs of different birds, and the colours of trees in different seasons—everything was so interesting and beautiful. Even now I still miss my life in the mountains.

21. A   考查固定短语。keep a record是一个固定短语，意为“记录，记载”，故答案为A。

22. A   考查名词experience的用法。experience当“经验”讲时，是不可数名词；当“经历”讲时，是可数名词。由答语可知，问句询问的是工作经验，因此本题中的experience是不可数名词，故答案为A。

23.Ｃ   考查主谓一致。the old意为“年老的”，表示一类人。当一类人作主语时谓语动词要用复数形式，故答案为C。

24.B   考查动词辨析。exercise意为“运动，锻炼”，由常识可知，经常锻炼会使人保持健康，故答案为B。

25.D   考查it的用法。it可用作形式主语，构成固定句型“It is+adj.+that从句”，后面的that从句是真正的主语。故答案为D。

26. A    考查固定短语。on one’s way to意为“在某人去……的路上”，故答案为A。

27.D    考查表示计量的句型。此类句型结构为：主语+be+数词+量词+形容词（long, wide, thick, tall...）。本句的主语是this road，因此形容词用wide最合适，故答案为D。

28.B   考查-ed形容词和-ing形容词的辨析。interested意为“感兴趣的”，主语通常是人；interesting意为“令人感兴趣的”，主语通常是事物。本题的主语是人，因此用interested。be interested in是一个固定短语，意为“对……感兴趣”。故答案为B。

29.A    考查动词make后的不定式形式。在主动语态中，make后接不带to的不定式，但是在被动语态中，要加上不定式符号to，故答案为A。

30.D    考查短语辨析。at all意为“根本”，at once意为“立刻，马上”，at times意为“有时”，at least意为“至少”。由空格后的数字10可知此处应该填at least，表示“这学期至少学了10首英文歌”，故答案为D。

31.B    plant trees是固定搭配，意为“植树”，前文中的planted是提示。故答案为B。

32.C    植树的目的是为了保护环境，建设一个绿色家园，因此应该填greener。

33.D    be surprised to表示“惊讶于……”，符合语境。

34.A    由后文中的the dead trees可知此处应填died。

35.D    因为种植的树死去了，所以工人们要把它们烧毁。前后两句之间是因果关系，所以用so来连接。

36.C    前文中的cleaned the place是提示。工人们做好清理工作，是为了种植“新”的树，因此应该填new。

37.C    字写在卡片上，应该用介词on。

38.D    to be the backbone of our country意为“成为国家栋梁”。

39.A    how many表示数量的多少，与前文的the survival形成对比。此处指“树木的存活比植树数目的多少更重要”。

40.D    take care of意为“照顾，照料”，符合语境。

41.C    第二段中列举了两个人，即Bray和Franklin，他们都为美国公共图书馆的发展作出了重要贡献，因此C项最恰当，而其他选项都不全面。

42.B    borrow意为“借”，即使用一段时间后归还，故答案为B。

43.A    由文章第一段的第二句“This was the beginning of the library at Harvard University.”可以判断出，哈佛大学是在成立之后才有的图书馆，因此A项正确，而其他三项都与文章内容不符。

44.D    由文章第一段的第一、二句“In 1638, John Harvard donated some money and about four hundred books to a new university. This was the beginning of the library at Harvard University.”可知，答案为D。

45.B    由文章第二段的最后一句“In a subscription library people pay money to become members, but they may borrow the books without paying again.”可知，A项错误。而C项与事实不符，故答案为B。

46.D    由文章第二段的第二句“But she always liked children, and she wanted to help them.”可知答案为D。

47.A    由文章第二段的后半部分“After that, she visited the hospital many times. Every time she visited, she brought toy bears for those children. After that, people started to call Gladys the ‘Toy Bear Lady’.”可知，答案为A。

48.C    由文章第三段的第三句“Everyone was very surprised when they learned that she was a millionaire.”可知，人们惊讶的是Gladys是一个百万富翁，也就是说，她非常有钱，故答案为C。

49.B    由文章最后一段的第二、三句“She asked her boss how to make more money, and she listened to what he said. She bought the stocks that he told her to buy, and she got very rich.”可知，因为Gladys听从了老板的建议，所以她变得富有了。故答案为B。

50.C    由文章第三段的第二句“She lived in a small house outside Chicago.”可知，Gladys即使成为了一位百万富翁，也并未改变自己原先的生活方式，她依然住在自己的小房子里。故答案为C。

One possible version:

Last weekend I went to a zoo. There were all kinds of wild animals there. Many visitors enjoyed themselves. Some of them gave food to monkeys, and some of them played with tigers. Animals are our friends. We should be friendly to them. It is also important for us to protect the environment. We mustn’t litter in the zoo. Now more and more people know the importance of protecting animals because protecting animals is protecting ourselves.
