閱讀下列四篇短文，從每小題后所給的A、B、C、D四個選項中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該選項涂黑。

Four million children are caught up in the war in Syria. Thirteen-year-old Rabia is one of them. Tall and thin, she sits shaking in a yellow T-shirt at the Al Marj settlement, close to the Lebanese-Syrian border.

Home for Rabia was once a two-story house near Damascus. Now it is a tent shared with her nine family members.

Rabia’s face is covered with dirt, and she is tired and cold. She has just finished work, picking up potatoes that fell from a truck. Her typical day starts at 4 a.m., and she works a double shift that lasts about 16 hours, putting potatoes into bags. The only choice for her is that she can choose the first eight hours or the second eight hours. For this, she gets paid about $8 a day.

Working means Rabia misses school. Back in her village, she was the best in her class and good at everything. Her favorite subjects were Arabic literature and math. But, like many children now living in the settlements — there are no official refugee（難民）camps in Lebanon — that was Rabia’s old life. Life before war, before her family moved five times to escape the bombs, before leaving behind her bedroom, her toys and her friends without packing a bag, before “half the people I know” were dead.

The old life was full of laughter with her sister, Wala. But Wala, 14, got married two days ago to an 18-year-old Lebanese. Rabia is happy for her sister. Life in the settlement is tough — the children have nowhere to play, the bathing is poor and sexual abuse is out of control. You can’t blame parents — often confused, illiterate and poor — who want to marry off their daughters. They fear for their safety.

Increasing numbers of Rabia’s girlfriends are getting married. Once in rural Syria, a girl got married at 16. According to UNICEF, the age is now dropping to 12 or 13. It is no secret that Lebanese men want to marry Syrian refugee girls, who work hard and don’t ask for anything.

1. Where is the passage most likely to have been taken from?

A. A news report. B. A book review.

C. A history book. D. A travel magazine.

2.The underlined word “shift” in Para. 3 probably refers to ______.

A. the extra task B. the low pay

C. the potato factory. D. the working period

3.The writer's purpose for writing Para. 4 is to ______.

A. present the dream of Rabia

B. show the damage of the war

C. predict the future of Syrian girls

D. compare the life before war and now

Though problems are a part of our lives, it certainly doesn’t mean that we let them rule our lives forever. One day or the other, you’ll have to stand up and say — problem, I don’t want you in my life.

Of course, we’ve been fighting troubles ever since we were born. Problems with friends, parents, girlfriends, husbands, and children — the list goes on. Apart from these, the inner conflicts within ourselves work, too. These keep adding to our problems. Problems come in different shapes and colors and feelings.

But good news is that all problems can be dealt with. Now read on to know how to solve your problems.

Talk, it really helps. What most of us think is that our problem can be understood only by us and that no talking is going to help. But the truth is that when you talk about, you’re setting free the negative energies that have been gathering within you. Talking helps you move on and let go.

Write your problems. Having a personal diary can also be of huge help if you don’t want a real person to talk with. When you write down your problems, you’re setting free all the tension from your system. You can try throwing away the paper on which you wrote your problems. By doing this, imagine yourself throwing away the problems from your life.

Don’t lose faith and hope. No matter what you lose in life, don’t lose faith and hope. Even if you lose all your money, family ..., you should still have faith. With faith and hope, you can rebuild everything that you lose.

Your problems aren’t the worst. No matter what problem you get in life, there’re another one million people whose problems are huger than yours. Tell yourself: when they can deal with them, why can’t I? Your problems might just seem big and worse, but in reality they can be removed.

Go about and solve your problems because every problem, however big or small, always has a way out.

1.What is the text mainly about?

A. How to find problems.

B. How to change problems.

C. How to live without problems.

D. How to deal with problems.

2.According to the text, the first paragraph is trying to ________.

A. upset the readers

B. encourage the readers

C. laugh at the readers

D. please the readers

3.What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?

A. There are different kinds of problems in our life.

B. Problems are too difficult to deal with.

C. We have to fight problems in our whole life.

D. We have more and more problems.

4.According to the text, when you talk about your problems to others, ________.

A. you will be completely understood by others

B. you can find a way out from others

C. you will create another problem

D. you can live on more easily

Reading books can be a great way to pick up new vocabulary, see grammar in action and develop your understanding of a language.1.

For beginners, I would recommend starting with something short and simple. Avoid the classics, for they often use very old English words and can involve complex themes. Children's books are a great place to start.2..Dr Seuss writes his books in thyme and they are all very funny. Starting with something like this means you are more likely to finish the book and want to read more.

3.The book isn't too long and if you've seen the film it may be easier to follow. If you like reading about historical events, Anne Holm’s I am David is a good read.

If you're not quite ready to read a full book, why not try Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes? 4.Or, try a very short book like one from Roger Hargeaves's Mr Men and Little Miss series. Although they are intended for young children, they are a good way to pick up some more basic vocabulary.

My final piece of advice would be to read something that interests you. Look at the short summary of the book on the back cover and see if it looks like something that you would enjoy. Think about the type that is in your own language and find one of that type in English. 5..

A. Dr Seuss's books are guaranteed to make you laugh.

B. The key to success is choosing the right book for you.

C. Reading can bring you a lot of fun as well as knowledge.

D. For more advanced learners, you could try the Hobbit by J.R.R.Tolkien.

E. This way, you're more likely to enjoy reading, rather than see it as a headache.

F. How much you can understand a book depends on your vocabulary.

G. This book contains lots of short stories, based on fairy tales, all written in thyme.

Not everyone is good at remembering names. 1. What’s worse is that someone else is with you and you know you’ll have to introduce the two of them to each other. Here are some strategies that may help you remember names easily.

Listen attentively.2.Listen attentively to the name and concentrate on the face. Don’t look at the person’s clothes or her jewelry (首飾). If you did not hear the name clearly, ask the name to be repeated.

Find connections. The person you are introduced to may be a doctor, a mother of five or a cancer survivor. 3.The details may come out during your conversation or another person may provide them at a later time.

Repeat the name. 4. If the conversation is short, once should be enough. For a longer conversation, you can repeat her name two or three times, but never use her name in every sentence.

Refer the name to another person. You can tell a friend or a family member that you met, for example, Anna Smith at a party. Describe a little about Anna. 5. However, this is an exercise for you to remember the person’s name.

A. Write down the name when necessary.

B. You’d better connect the details about the person to her name.

C. Of course your friend may not care so much for this information.

D. Pronounce and spell the name so that you can remember it.

E. Whenever you are introduced to someone, keep your mind on it.

F. During the course of your conversation with anyone new to you, use her name once in a while.

G. You may have been in situations where you see a familiar face but you just can’t remember her name.
