8．I learned about life from an ant farm．When I was seven years old，my family tried to （36）A an ant farm at home．First，we put clean sand in a thin glass box，and then we brought some ants from the backyard and placed them into the （37）B home．
Shortly after the new （38）B were dropped into the glass structure，they got to work making tunnels．I was amazed that each one knew （39）C what to do．After hours of staring，I realized that the ants had particular given jobs．With my mom's help，I kept a journal of what happened each day and （40）A the ants．My favorite was the biggest，Cinderella．I drew a picture of her in my journal，which I still have．
On day five a disaster （41）B the ant farm．While I was （42）C the ants，I had put my face so close to the structure that I accidentally tipped it over，（43）Din all the tunnels．Although the ants （44）D their earthquake，one by one they began to die．I was （45）B as I watched them give up their tunnel-building to carry the bodies to a corner of the farm．My mother reported that the ants were dying of"frustration"-feeling annoyed and impatient as they couldn't control the situation．They simply could not （46）D the reality that their tunnels had been destroyed．Cinderella was the last to die； she did so while carrying a dead ant on her back．
Although much time has passed，I still think of that ant farm．Mom had hoped it would teach me about the natural world，（47）B it taught me much more． （48）D the years，I came to realize the ants were a study in the benefits of （49）A．Working together，they were able to create a（n） （50）D world for themselves．I also learned that they should be （51）C for their hard work．Day in and day out，each labored at their task．The ant farm demonstrated that teamwork and perseverance are indeed two key （52）C to success．But there was an even larger lesson that I did not （53）B until recently：Disaster is a natural part of life，and must be （54）A．Unlike the ants，humans cannot give up when they face （55）D．Unlike the ants，we have to realize that if a tunnel caves in，we just have to build another．

7．Last Friday，6-year-old Landon Johnson went to the River Town Crossings Mall in Grandville with his family．While there，the boy and his cousins took turns chatting with Santa，sharing their Christmas desires．
After telling the man in red he wanted a Wii，a toy dinosaur and a remote control car，Landon hopped off Santa's lap to rejoin his family．But a few moments later，he raced back to Santa's side：he'd forgotten to tell him something important．Specifically，Landon shared his worry with Santa that his autism（自閉癥） would land him on the"naughty list．"
His mom，Naomi Johnson，explained to WOOD-TV this week that Landon is often told he's"naughty"by people who mistake his autism for bad behavior．"You get the stares when you're at the grocery store if he's too loud，"Johnson said．"He's been told by other people before，‘You don't need to be so naughty，'or，‘Why are you naughty？"
Johnson says Santa took the time to listen to Landon's worries，and held the boy's hands all the while．"Santa sat him next to him and took Landon's hands in his and started rubbing them，calming them down．Santa asked Landon if it bothered him，having Autism？Landon said yes，sometimes．Then Santa told him it shouldn't．It shouldn't bother him to be who he is，"Johnson said．
Landon told Santa that he sometimes"gets in trouble at school and it's hard for people to understand that he has autism，"but that he's"not a naughty boy．"
"You know I love you and the reindeer love you and it's OK．You're a good boy，"Santa told WOOD-TV about the chat with Landon．"You're a good boy，you know．"
Johnson said she was incredibly moved by Santa's thoughtful words．"This stranger in a red suit told my son the same message I've been trying to get through to him for a while now-that he's special and I love him just the way he was made，"the mom told Today．com．"Seeing Landon's face light up in that moment was just incredible．I couldn't stop crying．He was the real Santa Claus．"
24．What did Landon do after he raced back to Santa？C
A．He shared Christmas desires with Santa．
B．He checked if he was the real Santa Claus．
C．He told Santa how his autism had bothered him．
D．He asked for a toy dinosaur and a remote control car．
25．What did Santa tell Landon to do？B
A．Avoid those who mistake him．
B．Remain what he is．
C．Try to change the way he behaves．
D．Tell others about his autism．
26．What can we infer from the text？B
A．Every child is quite possible to be bothered by autism．
B．Chatting with Santa was a special Christmas gift for Landon．
C．Santa Claus are always popular with children and their parents．
D．Naughty boys are hard to understand because of their bad behaviors．
27．What's the best title for the text？A
A．It's OK to be you
B．Autism is really a problem

13．Cosmo Books Ltd．，14，Woodman Road，
Hertford Estate，Two Bridges，
Rickmansworth，West Sussex．
Middx．
                                                     25th February
Sir，
Just over six months ago，I saw an advertisement in the Morning Mail for a set of the complete works of William Shakespeare．Your company，Cosmo books Ltd．，offered this set （eight books of plays and two books of poetry） at what was claimed to be a‘remarkable'price：fifteen pounds and fifty pence，including postage and packing．I had wanted a set of Shakespeare's plays and poems for some time，and these books，in red imitation leather，looked particularly attractive； so I sent for them．
Two weeks later，the books arrived，together with a set of the complete works of Charles Dickens which I had not ordered．So I returned the Dickens books to you，with a cheque for fifteen pounds and fifty pence for the works of Shakespeare．Two more weeks passed．Then there arrived on my door step a second set of the works of Shakespeare，the same set of novels by Dickens and a six book set of the plays of Moliere，in French．Since I do not read French，these were of no use to me at all．However，I could not afford to post all these books back to you，so I wrote to you at the end of August of last year，instructing you to come and collect all the books that I did not want，and asking you not to send any other books until further notice．
You did not reply to that letter．Instead you sent me a bill for forty two pounds，and a set of the plays of Schiller，in German．Since then，a new set of books has arrived every two weeks，the works of Goethe，the poems of Milton，the plays of Strindberg； I hardly know what I have．The books are still all in their boxes，in the garage，and my car has to stand in the rain outside．
I have no room for any more books，and even if I read from now until the Last Judgment，I should not finish reading all the books that you have sent me．
Please send no more books，send no more bills，send no more angry letters demanding payment．Just send one large lorry and take all the books away，leaving me only with the one set of the complete works of Shakespeare for which I have paid．
Yours faithfully，
SIMON WALKER

20．Did you ever look up at the moon and think you saw a man's face there？When the moon is round and full，the shadows of the moon mountains and the lines of the moon valleys sometimes seem to show a giant nose and mouth and eyes．At least，some people think so．
If there were a man on the moon-instead of mountains and valleys that just look like the face of a man-what would he be like？
He would not be like anyone you know．He would not be like anyone anybody knows．
If the man on the moon were bothered by too much heat or cold the way Earth people are，he could not stay on the moon．
The moon becomes very，very hot．It becomes as hot as boiling water．And the moon becomes very，very cold．It becomes colder than ice．
Whatever part of the moon the sun shines on is hot and bright．The rest of the moon is cold and dark．
If the man on the moon had to breathe to stay alive，he couldn't live on the moon because there's no air there．（He'd have to carry an oxygen tank，as astronauts do．）There's no food on the moon，either．Nothing grows-not even weeds．
If the man on the moon liked to climb mountains，he would be very happy．There are many high places there，such as the raised land around the holes，or craters，of the moon．Some of these rimsare as tall as Earth's highest mountains．
But if the man on the moon liked to swim，he would be unhappy．There is no water on the moon-just dust and rock．
When you think of what it's like on the moon，you may wonder why it interests our scientists．One reason is that the moon is Earth's nearest neighbor-it is the easiest place in space to get to．
Going back and forth between the moon and Earth，astronauts will get a lot of practice in space travel．Things learned on moon trips will be of great help to astronauts who later take long，long trips to some of the planets．
Scientists are also interested in the moon because it has no air．The air that surrounds Earth cuts down the view of the scientists who look at the stars through telescopes．A telescope on the moon would give them a clearer，closer view of the stars．

31．Which of the following is the best title of the passage？B
A．The Moon                 B．The Man on the Moon
C．Research on the Moon     D．What Is It Like on the Moon？
32．What is the reason why our scientists are interested in the moon？D
A．The moon is beautiful．
B．The moon is different from the Earth．
C．The moon is Earth's nearest neighbor-it is the easiest place in space to get to．
D．The moon is the easiest place in space to get to and it has no air，unlike Earth．
33．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage？C
A．The climate on the moon is quite different from that on the Earth．
B．Traveling between the moon and Earth will do much good to astronauts．
C．There is some food and weeds on the moon，even though there's no air．
D．If you want to drink hot water on the moon，it's not so hard to boil water．
34．The underlined word"rims"in Paragraph 8meansC．
A．ball     B．hill     C．round edge    D．height
35．What is the main idea of the passage？A
A．We can learn much from research on the moon．
B．There may be human beings on the moon．
C．If there were a man on the moon，there would be many similarities between the man on the moon and on the Earth．
D．A telescope on the moon would help scientists have a clearer，closer sight of the stars．
