10．（6分）It is well known that twins are closer to each other than most brothers and sisters；after all，they probably spend more time with each other．In Britain there was the famous case of the silent twins，June and Jennifer Gibbons，who refused to talk to anyone but each other．
However，these special relationships are the result of lives spent almost completely in each other's company．What happens when twins do not grow up together？Are they just like any other strangers，or are there still special similarities between them？Professor Tom Bouchard who works in the University of Minnesota set out to find the answer to this question．He followed sixteen pairs of twins，who lived in different families．Each twin was then interviewed about their life．
The results were surprising．Many of the twins were found to have the same hobbies or habits，and some have suffered the same illnesses．A large number of the twins have had children at almost the same times；sometimes they have even given them the same names．But the most surprising similarities are to be found in the case of Jim Springer and Jim Lewis．The story of the "Jim Twins" made headline news across USA，and they even appeared on national television．Born in 1939，and brought up by different families at birth，both babies were named Jim by their new parents．
So what can be the explanation for these similarities？Research into the lives of twins makes us believe our personalities may be at least partly due to nature．On the other hand，some surprising coincidences（巧合） do happen all the time，not just in the lives of twins．

（1）What did Professor Tom Bouchard want to find out？ 　 　
A．How many kinds of similarities are there in the twins？
B．What makes the twins have similar hobbies or habits？
C．Do the twins influence each other when they are young？
D．Are the twins alike if they are brought up in different families？
（2）What can be learned about Jim Twins？ 　 　
A．They got married nearly at the same age．
B．Their story even appeared on TV in the USA．
C．They had children almost at the same time．
D．They refused to talk to others but each other．
（3）What does the author want to tell us by writing the last paragraph？ 　 　
A．Surprising stories between twins brought up in different families．
B．Some examples of similarities in twins brought up in different families．
C．The interesting relationship between twins brought up in different families．
D．The possible reason for the similarities in twins brought up in different families．
11．（8分）Jason and his father were going to the grocery store by car to pick up some apples.It had been an unusual day.The sky was dark but there were few clouds.As they drove up the street，there started to be a rumbling （隆隆的） sound heard across the ground.
Jason's father immediately realized that a tornado （龙卷风） was coming.He stopped the car and told Jason to get out immediately.Jason and his father got out of the car and made their way to the closest building.By this time the wind was blowing harder，and it was hard to see or hear. Debris was falling all over the place.Jason couldn't see his dad anymore.He also realized that he wasn't getting to the building fast enough.He was afraid he would be picked up by the wind and thrown into the air.
As he made his way towards the building，he noticed a field to his right.He could see an irrigation ditch（灌溉渠）.In a panic，he scrambled （爬） to the ditch and lay flat on the ground.More debris and objects flew overhead.His heart was beating hard，and he was nervous.He had never been in a tornado before.
After a while，the winds died down and the loud roaring sound was gone.Jason slowly lifted his head and nervously looked around.What he saw was a great mess.Jason could hardly recognize the buildings in front of him because of all the damage.
He stood up and with shaky legs walked to the building.Once there，he pushed the door open and went inside.It was a public building owned by the city.It was empty，but Jason could hear noises further inside.He walked into the large room and saw his dad.He ran across the room and gave him a big hug.
"Jason!How are you？I've been worried sick about you!" said his father. "I couldn't find you anywhere!"
Jason breathed a sigh of a relief（松了一口气）and sat down.He did have a story to tell!

（1）From Paragraph 1，we can get the 　 　of the story.
A.background
B.development

12．（8分）The United States has always been a country of many cultures． Before Europeans came to North America，many groups of Native Americans lived here． Different Native American groups had different cultures．The first Europeans in the United States were from England and Holland， but immigrants（移民） came from all European countries． Many people also immigrated from Asia and Africa． Sadly， many Africans were brought to the United States to serve the Americans．The life there was hard for them．Many immigrants come from Latin America too． Today， the United States has people from more cultures than ever．
In the 19th century， people thought of the United States as a "melting pot"． People thought that all immigrants should forget their native cultures and languages and become English﹣speaking Americans．They felt that people should assimilate cultures． However， not everyone wanted to assimilate completely．Many people tried to keep parts of their cultures， such as foods， customs， and languages． However， their children often forgot their parents' or grandparents' language． But most Americans， even those whose families have been here for a long time， can tell the countries their relatives came from．And of course，new immigrants take great pride in their cultures and languages．
For all of these reasons， melting pot is no longer a good way to describe the United States．Instead，people now call the United States a "salad bowl"． They say salad bowl because in a salad， you can still see all of the individual parts （lettuce， tomato， and so on）， but all the different parts are mixed together and begin to take on the taste of one another．

（1）The first paragraph mainly talks about　 　．
A． how many immigrants the United States has
B． where the immigrants live in the United States
C． what culture and language the immigrants keep
D． why the United States is a country of many cultures
（2）What can we learn from the passage？　 　
A． Before Europeans came to North America， nobody lived there．
B． People spoke of the United States as a "melting pot" in the 19th century．
C． All the Africans were brought to the United States to serve the Americans．
D． The immigrants in the United States are only from England， Holland and Africa．
（3）The underlined word "assimilate" in the second paragraph means "　 　"．
A． make something similar
B． make something special
C． make something different
D． make something interesting
（4）Why do people call the United States a "salad bowl" now？　 　
A． Because Americans can make all the cultures into one culture．
B． Because Americans all want to eat salad to be healthy very much．
C． Because Americans want their country to be as "green" as "salad"．
D． Because Americans can make different cultures go together in one country．

Tips for Being a Smart Shopper
Supermarket is a good place for us to go shopping．But are you a smart shopper？Do you always shop in a wise way？There are 5 ways to help you to save at the supermarket．
（1）　 　
It's the first thing you should do at the store﹣and the first way to help yourself save．Unless you're doing a week's shopping，choose a small shopping cart（推车）．In an experiment，shoppers bought 40 percent more things when given a cart doubled the size they usually used．
（2）　 　
When you're buying bags of apples，don't just buy the first bag you grab．Make sure to pick a heavy one．In a price comparison，a Consumer Reports reporter found that "3﹣pound" bags of apples ranged in weight from 3.06﹣3.36 pounds﹣that's 10 percent more apples for the same price．
（3）　 　
Stores put the most popular﹣and often the most costly﹣items at eye level．In fact，factories often pay more money for the best place in the supermarket．To find the cheaper things，look up and down to the higher and lower shelves．McCue advises managers to put store brands and big items on the bottom shelves．
（4）　 　
People who shop with a list spend far less time in the store and also make fewer extra buys．If you are not good at remembering a paper list，keep one on your phone．You can use one of many free apps or just keep your list in your phone's built﹣in Notes app．
（5）　 　
While the smallest packages are often the worst deals，the biggest size isn't necessarily the biggest value．The key is to look for a unit price below the item on the shelf﹣the price per ounce or liter or whatever．In some cases，the medium﹣sized package might be your winner．

A．Buy the right size when shopping．
B．Look high and low on the shelves．
C．Consider using the shopping apps．
D．Choose the right shopping cart．
E．Compare apples to apples．
F．Make a shopping list before shopping．

10．（6分）It is well known that twins are closer to each other than most brothers and sisters；after all，they probably spend more time with each other．In Britain there was the famous case of the silent twins，June and Jennifer Gibbons，who refused to talk to anyone but each other．
However，these special relationships are the result of lives spent almost completely in each other's company．What happens when twins do not grow up together？Are they just like any other strangers，or are there still special similarities between them？Professor Tom Bouchard who works in the University of Minnesota set out to find the answer to this question．He followed sixteen pairs of twins，who lived in different families．Each twin was then interviewed about their life．
The results were surprising．Many of the twins were found to have the same hobbies or habits，and some have suffered the same illnesses．A large number of the twins have had children at almost the same times；sometimes they have even given them the same names．But the most surprising similarities are to be found in the case of Jim Springer and Jim Lewis．The story of the "Jim Twins" made headline news across USA，and they even appeared on national television．Born in 1939，and brought up by different families at birth，both babies were named Jim by their new parents．
So what can be the explanation for these similarities？Research into the lives of twins makes us believe our personalities may be at least partly due to nature．On the other hand，some surprising coincidences（巧合） do happen all the time，not just in the lives of twins．

（1）What did Professor Tom Bouchard want to find out？ 　D　
A．How many kinds of similarities are there in the twins？
B．What makes the twins have similar hobbies or habits？
C．Do the twins influence each other when they are young？
D．Are the twins alike if they are brought up in different families？
（2）What can be learned about Jim Twins？ 　B　
A．They got married nearly at the same age．
B．Their story even appeared on TV in the USA．
C．They had children almost at the same time．
D．They refused to talk to others but each other．
（3）What does the author want to tell us by writing the last paragraph？ 　D　
A．Surprising stories between twins brought up in different families．
B．Some examples of similarities in twins brought up in different families．
C．The interesting relationship between twins brought up in different families．
D．The possible reason for the similarities in twins brought up in different families．

Jason's father immediately realized that a tornado （龙卷风） was coming.He stopped the car and told Jason to get out immediately.Jason and his father got out of the car and made their way to the closest building.By this time the wind was blowing harder，and it was hard to see or hear.

After a while，the winds died down and the loud roaring sound was gone.Jason slowly lifted his head and nervously looked around.What he saw was a great mess.Jason could hardly recognize the buildings in front of him because of all the damage.

12．（8分）The United States has always been a country of many cultures． Before Europeans came to North America，many groups of Native Americans lived here． Different Native American groups had different cultures．The first Europeans in the United States were from England and Holland， but immigrants（移民） came from all European countries． Many people also immigrated from Asia and Africa． Sadly， many Africans were brought to the United States to serve the Americans．The life there was hard for them．Many immigrants come from Latin America too． Today， the United States has people from more cultures than ever．
In the 19th century， people thought of the United States as a "melting pot"． People thought that all immigrants should forget their native cultures and languages and become English﹣speaking Americans．They felt that people should assimilate cultures． However， not everyone wanted to assimilate completely．Many people tried to keep parts of their cultures， such as foods， customs， and languages． However， their children often forgot their parents' or grandparents' language． But most Americans， even those whose families have been here for a long time， can tell the countries their relatives came from．And of course，new immigrants take great pride in their cultures and languages．
For all of these reasons， melting pot is no longer a good way to describe the United States．Instead，people now call the United States a "salad bowl"． They say salad bowl because in a salad， you can still see all of the individual parts （lettuce， tomato， and so on）， but all the different parts are mixed together and begin to take on the taste of one another．

（1）The first paragraph mainly talks about　D　．
A． how many immigrants the United States has
B． where the immigrants live in the United States
C． what culture and language the immigrants keep
D． why the United States is a country of many cultures
（2）What can we learn from the passage？　B　
A． Before Europeans came to North America， nobody lived there．
B． People spoke of the United States as a "melting pot" in the 19th century．
C． All the Africans were brought to the United States to serve the Americans．
D． The immigrants in the United States are only from England， Holland and Africa．
（3）The underlined word "assimilate" in the second paragraph means "　A　"．
A． make something similar
B． make something special
C． make something different
D． make something interesting
（4）Why do people call the United States a "salad bowl" now？　D　
A． Because Americans can make all the cultures into one culture．
B． Because Americans all want to eat salad to be healthy very much．
C． Because Americans want their country to be as "green" as "salad"．
D． Because Americans can make different cultures go together in one country．

Tips for Being a Smart Shopper
Supermarket is a good place for us to go shopping．But are you a smart shopper？Do you always shop in a wise way？There are 5 ways to help you to save at the supermarket．
（1）　D　
It's the first thing you should do at the store﹣and the first way to help yourself save．Unless you're doing a week's shopping，choose a small shopping cart（推车）．In an experiment，shoppers bought 40 percent more things when given a cart doubled the size they usually used．
（2）　E　
When you're buying bags of apples，don't just buy the first bag you grab．Make sure to pick a heavy one．In a price comparison，a Consumer Reports reporter found that "3﹣pound" bags of apples ranged in weight from 3.06﹣3.36 pounds﹣that's 10 percent more apples for the same price．
（3）　B　
Stores put the most popular﹣and often the most costly﹣items at eye level．In fact，factories often pay more money for the best place in the supermarket．To find the cheaper things，look up and down to the higher and lower shelves．McCue advises managers to put store brands and big items on the bottom shelves．
（4）　F　
People who shop with a list spend far less time in the store and also make fewer extra buys．If you are not good at remembering a paper list，keep one on your phone．You can use one of many free apps or just keep your list in your phone's built﹣in Notes app．
（5）　A　
While the smallest packages are often the worst deals，the biggest size isn't necessarily the biggest value．The key is to look for a unit price below the item on the shelf﹣the price per ounce or liter or whatever．In some cases，the medium﹣sized package might be your winner．

A．Buy the right size when shopping．
B．Look high and low on the shelves．
C．Consider using the shopping apps．
D．Choose the right shopping cart．
E．Compare apples to apples．
F．Make a shopping list before shopping．
