Bird Safe Philly is asking building owners and people who live in the area to turn off all outside lights that aren’t necessary between 12 o’clock in the midnight and 6 o’clock in the morning, Pennsylvania Post reported. So far, many of the city’s best-known and tallest buildings will be taking part in. The main goal is to help keep migrating（迁徙）birds away from danger. Many birds die along the way. Besides the human actions, one of the biggest dangers comes from things humans have built. Scientists say that one billion birds may die every year in the US alone as a result of flying into tall buildings. Other tall buildings, such as electricity lines and cell towers （信号塔）also cause many bird deaths. Many migrating birds die because of getting troubled by the glass and lights of buildings. The windows can reflect（映出） things like the sky or trees, which cause birds to fly into the glass. Bright city lights add another difficulty, because they think the lights are stars that guide them.

He had to wear prosthetic legs（假肢）and used walking sticks to walk. But he had a strong heart. He believed nothing could stop him from achieving his success. So he decided to climb the Willis Tower, which was the highest building in the USA．Ethan started to learn karate（空手道）when he was four years old. When he decided to climb the Willis Tower, his karate teacher, Jeff Kohn, was deeply moved and offered to help train him. They spent more than 10 hours practicing climbing stairs and keeping balance（平衡）on the steps every day. “It seems that he never knows what tiredness is. Sometimes, I was so tired that I asked him to rest.” said Jeff, “But he said he was still OK and wanted more exercise.”Jeff was with Ethan for the climb. As Ethan got to the last step, he almost fell down, but he finally arrived at the top, where he enjoyed the cheers from the crowd. “I saw he went faster for the last 10 floors.” said Jeff, “He’s the most hard-working player I’ve ever trained. I am proud of him. ”Later, when people asked him why he did climbing, Ethan said, “I just want to show people that if a kid with no legs can do it, anyone can do it. And when I’m older, I could point to the building and say ‘Look at this building, I climbed’. ”36．Why did Ethan decide to climb the Willis Tower?A．To get some prizes. B．To enjoy the cheers from the crowd.C．To make his karate teacher happy. D．To show that anyone can do it with a strong will.37．Jeff Kohn helped Ethan perhaps because ______.A．Ethan paid him a lot B．he wanted to cheer all his students upC．he was touched by the boy’s fighting spirit D．he could make himself famous by doing this38．The underlined phrase “am proud of” means ______.A．am pleased with B．am sick of C．am worried about D．am interested in39．What can we learn from the passage?A．Ethan climbed the tower alone that day.B．Ethan’s teacher thought highly of him.C．Many people waited for Ethan at the top of the tower.D．The Willis Tower is the tallest building in America now.40．What does the passage mainly want to tell us?A．The early bird catches the worm.B．Everything is hard in the beginning.C．You can if you think you can.D．Never give an opinion about a person by his looking. “Did you often go skating last year?” I asked. Jen shook her head and looked at me. Finally, she said, “On Thanksgiving, Mom and I always went to visit some friends who lived on a farm. I especially loved seeing their big turkeys.”Before that, I never thought about how Jen felt those days—she now had a new stepfather and a new stepmother, and stayed in a new town and a new home. Jen and her mom used to live near a lake, but they had to move up north with us after her mom and my dad got married. She experienced more changes than me. Jen seemed so sad, and I felt sad, too. Then I wanted to think of some ways to cheer her up on this Thanksgiving Day. That day after a heavy snowfall, I invited her to go outside. We made a large snowball and a small snowball together. Then we shaped a ball behind the big snowball as a tail. Jen mixed some food coloring with water, saying, “We can color the tail.” Then our snow turkey had a red, blue, green, and yellow tail. We were so busy that we didn’t notice our parents were coming up to us. Dad found a hat for the snow turkey, and Mom wrapped her scarf（围巾）around its neck. Finally, Jen turned on a bright smile, which we never saw. “Thanks for coming up with this great idea!” my new mom said quietly in my ear, “You’re really a good brother!” A happy feeling went through my body. I said without thinking, “Thank you for bringing us happiness, too.” Suddenly, I saw tears of joy in her eyes. From then on, Jen became much happier, and so did I. We began to share happiness and sadness with each other. And we became real brother and sister.41．What did Jen use to do on Thanksgiving?A．She went skating with her friends. B．She went to a farm with her mother.C．She cooked a turkey with her mother. D．She made snow turkeys with her brother.42．From Paragraphy 2, we can learn that ______.A．Jen lived near a lake in the pastB．Jen moved up north for a vacationC．the writer experienced more changes than JenD．the writer always cared much about Jen after they first met43．What did the writer do to cheer Jen up?A．Color a turkey. B．Make a turkey together.C．Wrap a scarf for a snow turkey. D．Make a funny turkey tail with Jen.44．What can we know from the passage?A．Jen’s stepfather didn’t care about her.B．The writer felt happy to make Jen enjoy the special Thanksgiving.C．Jen enjoyed the life in the new family at first after they moved there.D．The writer couldn’t think out good ideas to change terrible situations.45．The best title of the passage could be “______”.A．My New Stepsister B．A Special Thanksgiving DayC．A Happy Snow Turkey D．Thank You to Be Our Family  四、多句选词填空仔细阅读下面五个句子，然后用下面方框中所给的单词或短语填空，使每个句子在结构、句义和逻辑上正确。（提示：方框中有二个单词或短语是多余的。）continues / put off / trouble / put up / planned / began / independent 46．In some families, competition starts very young and ______ until the kids get older.47．Many people don’t want to help others because they don’t want any ______.48．Clean-Up Day is coming and we can’t ______ making a plan.49．The earlier kids learn to be ______, the better it is for their future.50．I was waiting for the bus when it ______ to rain heavily.  五、短文首字母填空阅读下面短文，在空白处填入适当的单词，单词的第一个字母已给出。“Welcome to China!” is a simple greeting from Sun Zeyu, a volunteer at the Beijing Winter Games, to warm the h___51___ of athletes (运动员) from all around the world.
