11．Dear Santa，
Thank you for all of the great gifts you give me this Christmas．
My parents can't seem to decide whether you gave the presents directly，or if you just helped them and my grandma pick out the right presents．So，if you are advising her，please tell her next year that I do not own a Wii．
I don't remember asking you for so many pairs of pants，but thank you for giving me the chance to try them on in the front of my whole family．I enjoyed them so much that I continued to wear them，with the tags（商標(biāo)）still on．
My mom and the holiday movies are always quick to remind me that Christmas isn't about the presents．It's about togetherness．But without the presents，there's nothing to do to fill up this long，long day．So I think Christmas is about the presents，and I'm sure you agree．
If you do，I have some suggestions about ways that you could make the present part of the day last longer：using packing tape to wrap presents instead of Scotch tape（透明膠帶）．It took，like，ten minutes to open just one present．
My final suggestion is pretty simple：more presents!If it took the whole day to open all of the presents，then I wouldn't have that terrible time，because my mom says it's wrong to go play video games in my room，but there's nothing else to do outside of my room．
Anyway，thank you again and I look forward to seeing you next Thanksgiving．It's an iTunes gift card for you and hope you like it．
Merry Christmas!

34．What present does the writer want most？B
A．Many pants．
B．A Wii．
C．Christmas cards．
D．An iTunes gift card．
35．In the opinion of the writer，Christmas is a festival aboutC．
A．holiday movies
B．family togetherness    
C．gift  
D．playing video games
36．Why does the writer suggest using packing tape to wrap presents？A
A．Because packing tape can make presents hard to open．
B．Because packing tape can make presents more beautiful．
C．Because packing tape can make presents last long．
D．Because packing tape is cheap．
37．What always make the writer's mother angry with him on Christmas Day？D
A．His disliking to her Christmas．
B．His never saying thanks to the family．
C．His wrong suggestions about presents．
D．His staying in the room playing games．

分析 短文大意：作者認(rèn)為圣誕節(jié)是與禮物有關(guān)的節(jié)日．如果沒(méi)有了禮物，就會(huì)感覺(jué)它是很漫長(zhǎng)的一天，非常難過(guò)．

解答 34-37：BCAD
34．B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文中My parents can't seem to decide whether you gave the presents directly，or if you just helped them and my grandma pick out the right presents．So，if you are advising her，please tell her next year that I do not own a Wii．可知作者最想得到的禮物是Wii，所以該選B．
35．C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)短文中My mom and the holiday movies are always quick to remind me that Christmas isn't about the presents．It's about togetherness．But without the presents，there's nothing to do to fill up this long，long day．So I think Christmas is about the presents，and I'm sure you agree．的描述可知作者認(rèn)為圣誕節(jié)是一個(gè)有關(guān)禮物的節(jié)日，所以該選C．
36．A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)文中If you do，I have some suggestions about ways that you could make the present part of the day last longer：using packing tape to wrap presents instead of Scotch tape（透明膠帶）．It took，like，ten minutes to open just one present．可知作者建議用透明膠帶包裝禮物可以使禮物難打開(kāi)，所以該選A．
37．D 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．文中My final suggestion is pretty simple：more presents!If it took the whole day to open all of the presents，then I wouldn't have that terrible time，because my mom says it's wrong to go play video games in my room，but there's nothing else to do outside of my room可知作者呆在屋子里玩游戲最讓他媽媽生氣，所以該選D．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 本文是一篇人物故事類(lèi)閱讀，題目涉及多道細(xì)節(jié)理解題，做題時(shí)結(jié)合原文和題目有針對(duì) 性找出相關(guān)語(yǔ)句進(jìn)行仔細(xì)分析，結(jié)合選項(xiàng)選出正確答案．推理判斷也是要在抓住關(guān)鍵句子的基礎(chǔ)上合理的分析才能得出正確的答案．

2．Going green seems to be fad（時(shí)尚） for a lot of people these days．Whether that is good or bad，we can't really say，but for the two of us，going green is not a fad but a lifestyle．
    On April 22，2011，we decided to go green every day for a whole year．This meant doing 365 different green things，and it also meant challenging our selves to go green beyond easy things．Rather than recycle and reduce our energy，we had to think of 365 different green things to do and this was no easy task．
    With the idea of going green every day for a year，Our Green Year started．My wife and I decided to educate people about how they could go green in their lives and hoped we could show people all the green things that could be done to help the environment．We wanted others to know that every little bit helps．
    Over the course of Our Green Year，we completely changed our lifestyle．We now shop at organic（有機(jī)的） stores．We eat less meat and choose green food．We have greatly reduced our buying we don't need．We have given away half of what we owned through websites．Our home is kept clean by vinegar（醋） and lemon juice，with no chemical cleaners（化學(xué)清潔劑）．We make our own butter，enjoying the smell of home-made fresh bread．In our home，anyone caught doing something ungreen might be punished．
    Our minds have been changed by Our Green Year．We are thankful for the chance to have been able to go green and educate others．We believe that we do have the power to change things and help our planet．

19．My sister Alli and I have been trying to get people to stop dropping cigarette butts（煙蒂） for seven years．
One day，we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground．They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people stop dropping butts．We called it"No Butts About It"．
At first，we drew pictures with"The Earth Is Not Your Ashtray（煙灰缸）"written on them．We put the pictures around our hometown--in parks，by beaches，and along roads．We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts hurts the environment．Most smokers don't think that dropping butts hurt the earth．But it does!All rubbish does．
Later，we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us．We used the money to buy ashtrays to give smokers．We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn't have to drop butts．
At the moment，we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes．Some companies want to do it．
Many people have started to join our group since it began．Today there are 45other"No Butts About It"groups in America．And there are even groups in England，Australia and India!
Many newspapers have written about my sister and I over the last seven years．And we have won many prizes for our good work．But we are not interested in prizes．We just want to make the earth a better and cleaner place for animals，plants and people．One day it will be．
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容選擇最佳答案．
46．When did"No Butts About It"start？B
A．Many years ago．
B．Seven years ago．
C．It's not mentioned．
47．Why did they start the group？C
A．Because they wanted to make money．

6．I've got an important job to do．I'm really nervous about it．It's a big responsibility．I'm in Grandad's garden，sitting outside his pigeon loft （鴿房）．I'm waiting for Goldie to come home．
Goldie's proper name is Goldeneye．She's Grandad's champion （冠軍） racing pigeon．She's famous as she's won lots of cps．This morning she had a race-flew two，hundred miles away with lots of other pigeons．And now she's racing back home．
"Come on，Goldie．Come on Goldie!"That's me，calling Goldeneye back home．But I can't see her yet．
I really want Goldie to win this race．I want to give Grandad the good news when I see him tonight in hospital．My eyes search the blue sky．Still no sign of Goldie．
"Calm down，Danny!"I tell myself．That's what Grandad would have said："Calm down，Danny!"
But it's hard to be calm．This job is very important．I'll tell you why．
Before a race they put a rubber ring on every pigeon's leg．When Goldie comes back，I've got to catch her，as soon as she lands．I've got to take her ring off，as fast as I can，and put it in a little metal tube．I've got to put that tube in Grandad's special timing clock．That records the time that Goldie finished the race．
But I'll have to move like lightning．I can't waste a second．I've got to get that ring into that clock as quickly as I can!
So that's why I'm nervous，waiting for Goldie．I'm getting more nervous every minute，because Goldie should be here by now．But the sky is blue and empty．
"Calm down，son，"I tell myself．"Goldie always comes back．"But where is she？What am I going to tell Grandad？
I wait until it's nearly dark．I give up!Then I lock the other pigeons in the loft．I've got to see Grandad tonight at the hospital．What am I going to tell him？

88．Where is Danny waiting for Goldie？
He is waitinginGrandad'sgarden．
89．What race did Goldie have that morning？It had a two-hundred-mile race．
90．What good news does Danny want to tell Grandad？Goldie wins the race．
91．Why does Danny think his job is very important？Because his job is to record the time that Goldie finished the race．
92．When does Danny give up waiting for Goldie to come home？When it's nearly dark．
93．What do you think Danny is going to tell Grandad？Why？He is going to tell Grandad a white lie because he wants to make Grandad happy．

3．What's the secret of being a great friend？Here are some tips to help you be a nice friend．
Laugh and cry together．
Laughing with a friend is the best，but sometimes it's crying that makes you closer together．Don't be afraid to be yourself with your friends．Share your true feelings-you may learn that your friends feel the same way．As a result，friends will understand each other better．
Be a thoughtful gift giver．
Gift-giving isn't just for birthdays or holidays-it can be a fun way of making your friends feel special!But don't buy expensive presents-be creative!Making things shows your care，because you put time and thought into your gifts．Bake him favorite cookies，write him a poem，or draw something special for him．Small thoughtful gifts，such as picking a flower for a friend who is sick，just might cheer him up．
Stand up for him．
It's hard to watch someone laugh at a friend．But don't just stand there，and do something about it!You can find a creative way to solve the problem to make others look at your friend differently．Other times，you need to show your courage and support him-he needs you．It may be not easy，but it's what a good friend should do!

1．C
Robot guides the blind
  Guide dogs are good friends and helpers for blind people．Now，a new kind of robot can also do the same job．
  NSK，a Japanese robotics company，is hard at work on a robot guide dog．The robot makes good use of wheels on its four legs to roll （滾動(dòng)） around on the floor．It can also lift its legs to climb up and down stairs．
  Blind people can give orders to the robot by touching handgrips（手柄）．The robot also talks in a woman's voice to let its human owner know what's going on．Such robots will probably never take the place of real dogs，but they have their own advantages．They can use GPS and street maps to lead their owners to the places they want to go．
