【解析】

1. day while she was walking in the woods she found two starving birds 提到小女孩發(fā)現(xiàn)了兩只饑餓的小鳥,下一句She cared them with love and the birds grew strong提到她用心關(guān)愛小鳥,可知此處是說她要將小鳥帶回家照顧。故選E

2. larger and the stronger of the two birds flew from the cage.可知鳥從鳥籠里飛出來了。所以上一句應(yīng)該是鳥籠打開了,這樣鳥才能分出來。故選F。

3. 突然,她感到鳥的呼吸很弱。由下文She opened her hand and stared in horror at the dead bird.可知,小女孩張開手時(shí),小鳥已經(jīng)死了,說明剛才她抓到小鳥時(shí),小鳥應(yīng)該是奄奄一息了。故選B。

4. bird circled once, twice, three times說小鳥在空中飛了幾次。 說明小鳥已經(jīng)放出來了。故選G。

5. 她再也沒有感到失落了。上端中提到,她放走了小鳥。因?yàn)樗軔圻@些鳥兒,放走它們,心里也會(huì)難過,失落。但當(dāng)她看到被給予自由的小鳥時(shí)那樣的歡樂時(shí),她的這種傷心和失落也就沒有了。故選C。

Dear Tracy,

I want to make friends with those who have same interests, but I am continually disappointing. No one I know have the same interests as I. Mine include read books and newspapers, watching news programmes, listening music and so on. But my friends were only interested in talking about the best way to make lots of money and what they will buy with them. That you know, friends are very important, so I don’t know where and how to find the friends I want. Can you offer me some suggestion?

My l4-year-old son, John, and I spotted the coat at the same time in a second-hand clothing store. It stood out among big and old coats. It had beautiful tailoring and an unbelievable price: $28. I looked at my son and we both said nothing, but John’s eyes shone. Dark, woolen topcoats were popular with teenage boys, but they could cost several hundred dollars new. This coat was even better. John tried it on and turned from side to side, eyeing himself in the mirror. The fit was perfect.

John wore the coat to school the next day and came home with a big grin. “Did the kids like your coat?” I asked. “They loved it.” he said.

Over the next few weeks, John changed. He was polite, less argumentative, more thoughtful, and on the whole much happier. “Good dinner, mom.” he would say every evening. Without a word of objection he would carry in wood for the stove. One day when I suggested that he might start on his homework before dinner, John, who always put things off, said: “You’re right. I guess I will.” When I mentioned this incident to one of his teachers, she joked that the coat must have changed him.

John and I both know we should never mistake a person’s clothes for the real person within them. But there is something to be said for wearing a standard of excellence for the world to see, for practicing standards of excellence in thought, speech, and behavior, and for matching what is on the inside to what is on the outside.

1.What does the author try to express in the first paragraph?

A. The coat looked like a magical coat.

B. They were good at shopping.

C. The coat was a real bargain.

D. They had the same taste in clothes.

2.What does the underlined word “grin” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?

A. A wide smile. B. A worried look.

C. A low spirit. D. A joking voice.

3. After John wore the new coat, the author found he _______.

a. was happier and better-behaved

b. received more praise from his teachers

c. was willing to follow suggestions

d. made rapid progress in study

e. would say sweet words to please her

A. a, b, c B. a, c, e

C. b, d, e D. c, d, e

4.What message does the author intend to deliver in the article?

A. We should not judge people by their appearance.

B. Life is full of possibilities when we are young.

C. It’s beneficial to try different things in our lives.

D. What we wear could help shape who we are inside.

When talking about colds, maybe some people say it is very common. During the cold winter days, many people will complain the cold winter makes them catch a cold, and what they feel upset are not only the headache, cough but also the runny nose. It is so embarrassing when they forget to take a handkerchief or tissue along with them.

Want to stay away from colds? Put on a happy face.

Compared to unhappy people, those who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds, according to a new study. It’s possible that being happy helps the body fight illnesses, say the researchers from New York University.

“It seems that positive(積極的) feelings may reduce (減少)the danger of illness,” said the study’s chief researcher Sheldon Cohen.

In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were cheerful and lively caught coughs and colds less often. People who showed feelings were also less likely to tell their doctors that they felt ill.

In this study, Cohen has interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. During the interviews, the people told researchers that they were given colds by doctors and had to stay alone in a room for six days.

The results showed that everyone in the study was equally(相等地) likely to get ill. But for people who said they felt happy during the research period, their illness are less serious and lasted for a shorter time.

Cohen believes that when people experience positive feelings, their body may produce a chemical that helps fight illness and disease. So if you are worried about your health, look on the brighter side more often.

1.The underline part in Paragraph 5 is probably means ___________.

A. sad B. bad-tempered

C. thoughtful D. outgoing

2.What did the study find?

A. People who felt happy never got ill.

B. People’s feelings didn’t influence their health.

C. People with good feelings became ill more easily.

D. People with positive feelings had less serious illnesses.

3.According to Cohen, which of the following may help fight illness?

A. Eating. B. Laughing C. Crying D. Sleeping.

4.This passage is a/an_______.

A. advertisement B. story

C. newspaper report D. scientist’s diary

5.What is the best title for this passage? ________

A. Smiles can fight colds B. Cause of colds found
