When I was six, Dad brought home a dog one day, who was called "Brownie". My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games. Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.

One day, as I was getting her food, she chewed up (咬破) one of my Dad's shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was wrong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl,” she looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.

Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she'd let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we'd be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is that she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone.

Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss the days when she was with us.

24．What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family?

A．Look at them sadly. B．Stay with them.

C．Play games with them. D．Touch them gently.

25．We can infer from Paragraph 2 that Brownie ________.

A．would eat anything when hungry B．felt sorry for her mistake

C．loved playing hide-and-seek D．disliked the author's dad

26．Some people got frightened by Brownie when she ________.

A．smiled B．barked

C．rushed to them D．tried to be funny

27．Which of the following best describes Brownie?

A．Shy B．Polite C．Brave D．Caring

C

More than 10 million Chinese cultural relics have been lost overseas, lots of which were stolen and illegally shipped out of China during the times of war before 1949. About 1.67 million pieces are housed in no more than 200 museums in 47 countries, which accounts for 10 percent of all lost Chinese cultural relics, and the rest are in the hands of private collectors.

Most of these treasures are owned by museums or private collectors in the United States, Europe, Japan and Southeast Asian countries. There are more than 23,000 pieces in the British Museum, most of which were stolen or bought for pennies more than 100 years ago.

The major method to recover these national treasures was to buy them back. In some cases, private collectors donated the relics to the government. Also, the government can turn to official channels to demand the return of relics.

In 2003, a priceless bronze pig’s head dating from the Qing Dynasty was returned to its home in Beijing after it was removed by the Anglo-French Allied Army over 140 years ago. Macao entrepreneur Stanley Ho donated 6 million yuan to buy it back from a US art collector and then donated it to the Poly Art Museum in Beijing.

Although buying-back is the most feasible way to recover the lost treasures, limited funding is always a big headache.

In recent years, the Chinese government has improved efforts to recover the precious cultural relics lost overseas. It has started a national project on the recovery of the treasures and has set up a database (数据库) collecting relevant information. It has signed several international agreements with many countries on this matter, and is also looking for international cooperation to recover the relics by working closely with several international organizations.

28．What is the passage mainly about?

A．The best way to recover cultural relics.

B．The efforts to recover Chinese cultural relics.

C．Stanley Ho donated a bronze pig’s head to Beijing.

D．Chinese cultural relics were stolen by the Anglo-French Allied Army.

29．What we can know about the bronze pig’s head?

A．It was made in the Ming Dynasty.

B．It is now in the Poly Art museum in Beijing.

C．It was donated by the French government to China.

D．It was removed by the Anglo-French Allied Army over 150 years ago.

30．What does the underlined word “feasible” in Paragraph 5 mean?

A．Possible. B．Difficult. C．Wonderful. D．Careful.

31．What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A．China has enough money to buy all the cultural relics back.

B．Many countries have returned the lost cultural relics to China for free.

C．The Chinese government has done a lot to recover the lost cultural relics.

D．China is preparing to set up a database to collect information about the lost cultural relics.

The measure of a good night’s sleep is usually based on two things—the amount of time spent sleeping and the quality of that sleep. But now researchers say there is a third thing that matters even more than the other two when it comes to keeping good sleep habits, and that is having a regular bedtime.

A study has found that going to sleep and waking up at the same time every day have an important effect on one’s health. Adults who stick to a regular bedtime tend to weigh less, have lower blood sugar and reduced risk of heart disease.

The researchers studied the sleeping habits of 2, 000 adults with an average age of 69. They found that people with greater irregularity in their sleep patterns tended to go to sleep later at night, feel sleepy and sleep more during the day, and experienced reduced light exposure. These people were also more likely to be stressed. Among the three kinds of sleep problems, sleep regularity was the most strongly associated with health.

Of course, there are many people for whom this may be impossible, such as night-shift workers or those with late-night duty. But for those who don’t have mandatory (强制的) reasons to stay up late, they should make an effort to go to bed at the same time every night. Skip the late afternoon coffee. Get off the phone. Try this calculator to figure out the best bedtime.

As Matthew Walker, a scientist, wrote, “The shorter your sleep, the shorter your life.” Surely that’s reasonable enough to go to bed on time.

32．What can we infer from the research?

A．Adults enjoy sleeping late.                  B．The old often have less sleep.

C．The older you are, the more stressed you feel.   D．Poor sleep has a lot to do with our health.

33．According to the author, which of the following helps us have a good sleep?

A．Losing weight.

B．Experiencing more light exposure.

C．Giving up coffee in the late afternoon.

D．Figuring out the amount of time spent sleeping.

34．Why are Matthew Walker’s words mentioned?

A．To tell us how long we should sleep every day.

B．To remind us how to live a better life.

C．To show the importance of the good sleep.

D．To present disadvantages of sleeping late.

35．What’s the best title for the text?

A．The Importance of Sleep. B．Stick to a Regular Bedtime.

C．Ways to Have a Good Sleep. D．The Suitable Time for Sleep.

The Kite Without a Thread

He asked his father to get him a kite and a thread with a roller so that he could fly a kite, too. The father went to the shop at the park where the festival was being held, and bought a kite and a roll of thread for his son.

His son started to fly the kite, and soon his kite flew high up in the sky. After a while, the son said, “Dad, it seems that the thread is holding up the kite from flying higher. If we break it, the kite will be free and will also fly even higher. Can we break it?” The father said, “Of course!” And he cut the thread from the roller. The kite started to go a little higher, which made his son very happy.

67．One possible version:

But slowly, the kite started to come down. Soon it fell down on the roof of an unknown building. The young son was very surprised to see this. He cut the kite's thread so that it could fly higher, but it fell down. He asked his father, “Dad, I thought that after cutting off the thread, the kite can freely fly higher. Why did it fall down?”

The father explained, “Son, the thread was not holding the kite from going higher. It was helping it stay higher when the wind slowed down and when the wind picked up, you helped the kite go up higher in a proper direction through the thread. But when we cut the thread, it naturally fell down without the support you were providing to the kite through the thread.”
