In November 1979, pupils in England were able to watch a new TV program called Monkey. Most of them were hearing this story for the first time. However, this story is not new to Chinese children. The Monkey King or Sun Wukong is the main character in the traditional Chinese book Journey to the West.

The Monkey King is not just any normal monkey. In fact, he sometimes does not even look like a monkey! This is because he can make 72 changes to his shape and size, turning himself into different animals and objects. But unless he can hide his tail, he cannot turn himself into a person. To fight bad people, the Monkey King uses a magic stick. Sometimes he can make the stick so small that he can keep it in his ear. At other times, he is able to make it big and long.

The Monkey King has excited the children of China for many years. And as soon as the TV program came out more than 30 years ago, Western children became interested in reading this story because the clever Monkey King keeps fighting to help the weak and never gives up.

Long ago there was a man with the name Smith. He made a living by making caps. One day he went to sell his caps. He went through a forest. There were many monkeys in it. It was very hot and the man wanted to have a rest. He came up to a large tree, put his caps on the ground, took one of them and put it on his head. Then he lay down and soon fell asleep.

“Where are my caps?” Smith cried when he woke up. He looked up and saw many monkeys in the tree and each monkey had a cap on its head.

阅读短文，根据短文内容，从下面各小题所给的四个备选项中，选出最佳选项。

Do you know what the world’s highest waterfall is? You may say that they are Niagara Falls. Niagara Falls are really beautiful, but in terms of the height, the most fantastic one in the world are Angel Falls. They are deep in the jungles(丛林) of Venezuela.

Few people have ever seen Angel Falls. It’s very hard to get there. If you go there on foot, you have to travel for weeks through thick jungles. If you go by plane from Caracas, a city on the southern coast, it will take about four hours.

One of the most interesting facts about Angel Falls is how they were found. They were named after an American pilot. His name was Jimmy Angel. In 1937, his plane crashed(坠毁) near the top of the falls. That’s how he found them.

Angel Falls drop nearly a kilometer from a table-top mountain. The water seems to be dropping straight out of the clouds. The height of the falls is very great. By the time the water reaches the ground it has already turned into fog(雾).

阅读短文，根据短文内容，从下面各小题所给的四个备选项中，选出最佳选项。

While you are in trouble, what are you going to do? What? Cry? Or escape? Those are all the wrong way! Robinson Crusoe can tell you the right answer!

       It is an exciting story: Robinson Crusoe hated the comfortable life in his hometown. So he wanted to be a seaman and traveled around the world. But one day, a terrible thing happened. A great storm came and their boat crashed! No one was alive in this accident except Robinson. He was the luckiest man in the world, because all his friends were dead but he was alive. However, at the same time he was the most tragic man of all: he must face the fact. Alone on an island without food, water or gun! But, all roads lead to Rome! He just used his hands to work hard! Then, he made a cave, built a house, grew corn and kept goats. In the end, he could enjoy the life on the island. In his twenty-fourth year on the island, he saved a wild man, and gave him the name of “Friday”. With Robinson’s teaching, “ Friday” became a good servant. Friday, they got a boat and escaped from the island.

       Surely, the writer of Robinson Crusoe is really a hero! It’s too hard to describe Robinson with words. We could say that Robinson was very clever, and also he was brave. Certainly, too many good words can describe him. But now, I think it isn’t important. However, the most important thing is what we have learned from the story. That is, use our own hands to work hard with confidence!

41．Robinson wanted to be a sailor because ______.

A．sailor was an interesting job

B．he could earn more money to be a sailor

C．he didn’t like the quiet life in his hometown

D．he wanted to get more fish

42．How many people were alive in the accident?          

A．No one. B．One. C．Two. D．Three.

43．The underlined word “tragic” means “______” in Chinese.

A．残忍的 B．伤心的 C．现实的 D．悲惨的

44．Robinson met “Friday”______.

A．before he traveled around the world B．when the accident happened

C．when he was on the island D．before Friday

45．According to the writer, ______ is the most important thing we can learn from Robinson Crusoe.

A．being brave and hard-working B．being brave and confident

C．being hard-working and confident D．being train a wild man

Dear boys and girls,

I’m Lin Hua. I’m glad to share what I have got and lost in the past two years. I am hard­working and have made great progress. I have developed many good habits of learning. I did well in the exams. However, I have problems, too. I spent more time in using the Internet and I have become quite weak in my eyesight. What’s more, it’s also a pity that I did less sports because of hard work.

In the future I should be glad to help others in trouble. I also hope I can take an active part in some volunteer activities, such as being a volunteer in protecting the environment, in helping disabled children and so on.

Thank you for listening!
