One of my favorite memories is of a day that was a big success for me. We were all trying to decide on a game to play. When Custard the cat pushed a football towards us with her little pink nose. “Great idea, Custard. Let’s have a game of football!” shouted Peter.
“But I don’t really know the rules,” said Angela nervously. “Well, let’s practice shooting (射门)! All you have to do is to score a goal (进球) to get a point,” suggested Lily. “OK! Let’s go and put our new sports clothes on!” answered May.
Peter chose two large sticks as goalposts (球门柱). Then, looking important, he said, “Since I’m the only boy here, I’ll be the goalkeeper (守门员). Let’s start!”
Angela was the first to shoot. She ran up to the ball and…oops! She fell over without even kicking the ball! Everyone started laughing. Lily was next. She took a great shot, but Peter made a good save. No goal! “Nice try, but I’m too good!” Peter said proudly as he threw the ball back. May tried her best, but her shot ended up wide of the goalpost. “What a pity!” said Peter, looking pleased with himself. “I didn’t expect to win, but it looks like no one can beat me, girls,” said Peter.
The little boy was getting a bit too big for his boots(靴子). I would like to have a try. Peter kicked the ball to me really hard. But I quickly kicked the ball out and sent the ball between the posts! “Ooh!” cried Peter, as he tried to avoid the powerful shot. “Goal! Well done!” shouted the girls. “What’s the matter, Peter? You’ve gone very quiet,” they all cried.

C．Peter believed in himself blindly. D．Peter was a great football player.
17．What happened at the end of the game?

Chinese has a history of thousands of years. But Pinyin doesn't. It tells people how to pronounce(发音) Chinese words. This year, Pinyin turns 62 years old.
In 1958, Chinese linguist(语言学家) Zhou Youguang and his team made Pinyin. Before that, Chinese people used many other ways to show how to pronounce Chinese words. But these ways are not as easy to use as Pinyin. Because of Pinyin, more people learn how to read.
Pinyin is a big part of our daily life. We learn to speak Putonghua with the help of Pinyin. We write Chinese characters on computers by using Pinyin.
Pinyin is young. But it is now very popular outside China. It is becoming a bridge between China and the world. Many people around the world start to learn Chinese by learning Pinyin. You might say “nihao” to mean “hello” to a foreign friend.
People are using Pinyin more often than before. For example, fewer foreigners use “dumplings”. They like to use “jiaozi”. And “mantou” is for “steamed-bun”. The Oxford English Dictionary (《牛津英语词典》) has more than 100 Chinese words in Pinyin, such as zhongguomeng for “Chinese dream”, and wanggou for “online shopping”.
18．Chinese people began to use Pinyin ________.
A．hundreds of years ago B．thousands of years ago
C．62 years ago D．a few years ago
19．Paragraph 3 tells us ________.
A．why people started using Pinyin B．how people started using Pinyin
C．what people use Pinyin for D．what will happen to Pinyin
20．Which of the following is TRUE about the article?
A．Pinyin helps foreigners learn Chinese. B．Pinyin has hundreds of English words.
C．Pinyin is as old as Chinese words. D．Pinyin is as easy as English words.
21．This passage is most probably from ________.
A．a weather report B．a magazine
C．a travel record D．an advertisement
D
You may study differently from your friends, but your study habits (习惯) are not wrong!
Kelly and Maria are best friends sharing the same hobbies. They love doing things together, such as going to movies, shopping, or just sitting at a small cafe. Since (由于) they take a lot of the same school subjects, they would love to study together, but they find this impossible. Their working styles are so completely different that they can’t be in the same room while they are studying!
Kelly would like to study in a clean, open space, while Maria works best with books, papers and other things around her. Kelly likes to study in a totally silent room, but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on. Kelly can sit for hours without moving, and often finishes all her homework in one sitting Maria, however, is always getting up, and says that she thinks best when she’s on the move.
You might be asking yourself: which way of studying gets better results? Many people believe that silent, tidy setting (环境) is the way to go, ____▲_____ . Some research (研究) shows that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus (聚焦) their attention because it makes them form a “wall” in their mind around what they are doing and makes their focus better.
So if you’re a student who chooses to study while sitting at a table in a busy shopping center, don’t worry about it. If you work in total silence, that’s OK, too. Judging from Kelly’s and Maria’s study habits, the best way to study is the way that works for you. In their very different ways, both of them do well in school, and both finish their work within the required time as well.
22．In this passage, the writer takes Kelly and Maria as an example to ________.
A．discuss two different study habits
B．tell the differences in their hobbies
C．show the importance of a good study habit
D．express the writer’s worry about their friendship
23．Which of the following is the best to fill in “________” in Paragraph 4?
A．and they have problems in study B．and it can be true for most of them
C．but that doesn’t always seem true D．but nobody does research on this question
24．What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph of this passage?
A．Students who like to study quietly will be more successful.
B．Only a small number of students can study well in a noisy situation.
C．Friends with different study habits can do better by studying together.
D．Both study habits can help students make progress (进步) in their studies.
25．What can be the best title for the passage?
A．Are you studying the “right” way?
B．How can you improve your study habits?
C．Is it possible for friends to study well together?
D．What are the advantages (优势) of different study settings?

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了DIY在英国非常受欢迎的原因，以及做DIY时可能产生的危险。
44．句意：如果家里有什么需要修理的东西，比如油漆墙壁或者架起一个新的架子，他们会自己动手。homes是名词复数，应该用形容词性物主代词修饰。故填their。
45．句意：如果家里有什么需要修理的东西，比如油漆墙壁或者架起一个新的架子，他们会自己动手。as为介词，后接动词的ing形式。故填painting。

One of my favorite memories is of a day that was a big success for me. We were all trying to decide on a game to play. When Custard the cat pushed a football towards us with her little pink nose. “Great idea, Custard. Let’s have a game of football!” shouted Peter.
“But I don’t really know the rules,” said Angela nervously. “Well, let’s practice shooting (射门)! All you have to do is to score a goal (进球) to get a point,” suggested Lily. “OK! Let’s go and put our new sports clothes on!” answered May.
Peter chose two large sticks as goalposts (球门柱). Then, looking important, he said, “Since I’m the only boy here, I’ll be the goalkeeper (守门员). Let’s start!”
Angela was the first to shoot. She ran up to the ball and…oops! She fell over without even kicking the ball! Everyone started laughing. Lily was next. She took a great shot, but Peter made a good save. No goal! “Nice try, but I’m too good!” Peter said proudly as he threw the ball back. May tried her best, but her shot ended up wide of the goalpost. “What a pity!” said Peter, looking pleased with himself. “I didn’t expect to win, but it looks like no one can beat me, girls,” said Peter.
The little boy was getting a bit too big for his boots(靴子). I would like to have a try. Peter kicked the ball to me really hard. But I quickly kicked the ball out and sent the ball between the posts! “Ooh!” cried Peter, as he tried to avoid the powerful shot. “Goal! Well done!” shouted the girls. “What’s the matter, Peter? You’ve gone very quiet,” they all cried.

Chinese has a history of thousands of years. But Pinyin doesn't. It tells people how to pronounce(发音) Chinese words. This year, Pinyin turns 62 years old.
In 1958, Chinese linguist(语言学家) Zhou Youguang and his team made Pinyin. Before that, Chinese people used many other ways to show how to pronounce Chinese words. But these ways are not as easy to use as Pinyin. Because of Pinyin, more people learn how to read.
Pinyin is a big part of our daily life. We learn to speak Putonghua with the help of Pinyin. We write Chinese characters on computers by using Pinyin.
Pinyin is young. But it is now very popular outside China. It is becoming a bridge between China and the world. Many people around the world start to learn Chinese by learning Pinyin. You might say “nihao” to mean “hello” to a foreign friend.
People are using Pinyin more often than before. For example, fewer foreigners use “dumplings”. They like to use “jiaozi”. And “mantou” is for “steamed-bun”. The Oxford English Dictionary (《牛津英语词典》) has more than 100 Chinese words in Pinyin, such as zhongguomeng for “Chinese dream”, and wanggou for “online shopping”.
18．Chinese people began to use Pinyin ________.
A．hundreds of years ago B．thousands of years ago
C．62 years ago D．a few years ago
19．Paragraph 3 tells us ________.
A．why people started using Pinyin B．how people started using Pinyin
C．what people use Pinyin for D．what will happen to Pinyin
20．Which of the following is TRUE about the article?
A．Pinyin helps foreigners learn Chinese. B．Pinyin has hundreds of English words.
C．Pinyin is as old as Chinese words. D．Pinyin is as easy as English words.
21．This passage is most probably from ________.
A．a weather report B．a magazine
C．a travel record D．an advertisement

You may study differently from your friends, but your study habits (习惯) are not wrong!
Kelly and Maria are best friends sharing the same hobbies. They love doing things together, such as going to movies, shopping, or just sitting at a small cafe. Since (由于) they take a lot of the same school subjects, they would love to study together, but they find this impossible. Their working styles are so completely different that they can’t be in the same room while they are studying!
Kelly would like to study in a clean, open space, while Maria works best with books, papers and other things around her. Kelly likes to study in a totally silent room, but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on. Kelly can sit for hours without moving, and often finishes all her homework in one sitting Maria, however, is always getting up, and says that she thinks best when she’s on the move.
You might be asking yourself: which way of studying gets better results? Many people believe that silent, tidy setting (环境) is the way to go, ____▲_____ . Some research (研究) shows that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus (聚焦) their attention because it makes them form a “wall” in their mind around what they are doing and makes their focus better.
So if you’re a student who chooses to study while sitting at a table in a busy shopping center, don’t worry about it. If you work in total silence, that’s OK, too. Judging from Kelly’s and Maria’s study habits, the best way to study is the way that works for you. In their very different ways, both of them do well in school, and both finish their work within the required time as well.
22．In this passage, the writer takes Kelly and Maria as an example to ________.
A．discuss two different study habits
B．tell the differences in their hobbies
C．show the importance of a good study habit
D．express the writer’s worry about their friendship
23．Which of the following is the best to fill in “________” in Paragraph 4?
A．and they have problems in study B．and it can be true for most of them
C．but that doesn’t always seem true D．but nobody does research on this question
24．What can we infer (推断) from the last paragraph of this passage?
A．Students who like to study quietly will be more successful.
B．Only a small number of students can study well in a noisy situation.
C．Friends with different study habits can do better by studying together.
D．Both study habits can help students make progress (进步) in their studies.
25．What can be the best title for the passage?
A．Are you studying the “right” way?
B．How can you improve your study habits?
C．Is it possible for friends to study well together?
D．What are the advantages (优势) of different study settings?
