Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.
A wise teacher once told me that every teenager needs to experience a not-so-fun first job from working at a grocery store to the fast food industry.
Now I still remember my first day at a fast food restaurant three years ago. I wanted to save up money and buy my own car, so I applied everywhere I could that summer. The restaurant called me right away and I thought to myself, this is going to be easy. Within four hours of my first shift (.輪班), I had angry customers who complained how slow I was. I watched in fear as a kid spilled his milk everywhere, and I heard the words that no 16-year-old boy or anyone for that matter wants to hear: "Mike, there's a problem in the men's bathroom and you might want gloves for this one." I realized right away that working at the restaurant was not going to be a picnic. The manager expected a clean environment and, particularly, fast service with a friendly smile.
Over three years later I still work at that restaurant whenever I go home during vacations. I love my co-workers there and all the customers know who I am. Every morning the same senior citizens come in and get their morning coffees. They chat with us workers and joke around. Our smiles have just as much to do with them making us a part of their everyday lives as the coffee does.
From my first job at the restaurant, I learned teamwork and devotion. I also learned staying positive no matter how rough things seem to get. I will forever carry the experience that I gained at the restaurant with me as I go forward in my life.

小題1:Why did the author apply everywhere that summer? (No more than 12 words)   (2 marks)
小題2:What did the manager particularly expect the worker to do? (No more than 14 words)  (3 marks)
小題3:Why does the author still work at the restaurant during vacations? (No more than 13 words) (2 marks)

文章是一篇記敘文,講述作者在餐廳打工的經(jīng)歷,選材貼近學(xué)生日常生活,難度適中。
小題1:首先根據(jù)apply everywhere定位到文章第二段第二行so I applied everywhere I could that summer,這一題的考點是why,即問apply everywhere的原因,根據(jù)句中的so得出答案在本句的前半部分I wanted to save up money and buy my own car. 答題時注意人稱的變化改成He wanted to save up money and buy his own car.
小題2:本題定位詞particularly expect,位置在第二段最后一句The manager expected a clean environment and, particularly, fast service with a friendly smile.答案要寫完整的句子The manger particularly expected them to offer fast service with a friendly smile.注意:這一題問manager 期待worker 做什么,而文中出現(xiàn)的是名詞短語fast service,所以要根據(jù)常識補充餐廳服務(wù)員是給客人提供服務(wù)(offer service).
小題3:本題利用定位詞still work 定位到第四段第一句話Over three years later I still work at the restaurant whenever I go home during vacations.后面一句即是解釋原因I love my co-workers there and all the customers know who I am.答案也參照第82題把人稱修改He loves his co-workers and all the customers know who he is.
小題4:本體是綜合理解問作者從他的第一份工作中學(xué)到什么,根據(jù)記敘文意義升華在尾段,定位到最后一段,F(xiàn)rom my first job at the restaurant, I learned teamwork and devotion. I also learned staying positive no matter how rough things seem to get.答案受字數(shù)限制需要合并句子,修改為He learned teamwork, devotion, and staying positive in rough situations.

The fourth of July marks the anniversary of America’s Declaration of Independence from Britain. During the summer of 1776, American colonists were deeply divided. Almost one in three was loyal to Britain. Yet most were increasingly angry about what they considered unfair treatment by the British government. By June, fighting had already taken place between colonial forces and Britain. The idea of independence was spreading.
Delegates (代表) from the thirteen colonies gathered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Continental Congress decided that a document declaring separation from Britain should be declared. Thomas Jefferson led a committee chosen to write it.
On July 4th, 1776, the Continental Congress voted to approve the Declaration of Independence. It says that people have the right to change their government if it denies them their rights. It states that everyone has the right to life, liberty and the pursuit (追求) of happiness.
Today, the Fourth of July holiday is a time for friends and families to gather. They might play sports and eat hot dogs, hamburgers and other foods cooked outdoors. They might watch a parade in their community. At night, many people gather to watch fireworks bursting in the dark sky.
In Washington, D. C. this year (2011), thousands of people attended a concert with performances by musicians. There was also a huge fireworks show with more than two thousand five hundred shells exploding over the National Mall.
Another event that traditionally took place on the National Mall was the Smithsonian Folk life Festival. This year’s event celebrated the cultures of Mexico and Asian Pacific Americans. Visitors heard the music, eat the food and learn about the many traditions of these cultures.
The third subject of the festival was called “Smithsonian Inside Out”. Smithsonian experts had a chance to present their research and knowledge to the public.
小題1:Why was the idea of independence spreading before July 4, 1776? (No more than 10 words)
小題2:What right does everyone have according to the Declaration of Independence? (No more than 13 rds)
小題3:What does the Fourth of July holiday mean to Americans today? (No more than 10 words)

It seems that the Englishman just cannot live without sports of some kinds. A famous French humorist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men always remains boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?
Taking all amateur﹙業(yè)余的﹚ and professional﹙職業(yè)的﹚sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the US. The game started in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or association football, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.
The next is rugby, which is called football in the US. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players rather than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped﹙橢圓形的﹚ball is used which can be held by hand as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.
In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.
Tennis rates high on the list, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to almost every country in the world.
Table tennis, or ping-pong, surely is not played as much as it is in China and Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lot of people.
小題1:What’s the main purpose of Paragraph 1? ﹙no more than 11 words﹚
                                                                            
小題2:What are the differences between football and rugby from the passage? ﹙no more than 10 words﹚
                                                                            
小題3:According to the passage, which games were never played in Britain until the late 19th century? ﹙no more than 3 words﹚
                                                                            
小題4:What is the best title for this passage in your opinion? ﹙no more than 4 words﹚

閱讀下面短文,并根據(jù)短文后的要求答題(請注意問題后的字數(shù)要求)。
[1]If you are worried about things and are under a lot of stress at work or school,then you are prob-ably not sleeping well. Worry can keep you awake,tossing and turning in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually fall asleep. When you wake up,you don't feel refreshed,but tired and worn out and unable to face a new day.
[2] Dr. Henry Winkle,in a recent newspaper article entitled Stress and Sleep,indicates that       .Dr. Winkle says,“The more we worry,the less we sleep,the more we are unable to deal with stress. If  we can find a way to get a good night's sleep,”he adds,“we can often find the energy to deal with what's worrying us.”
[3]So,what is a good night's sleep? Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy varies a lot. Seven hours is about the average amount,though strangely enough,sleeping longer often gives you a headache instead of making you feel more refreshed.
[4]Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short break and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise earlier in the day should help you to feel physically as well as mentally tired. A bedtime drink can also help,but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine and will keep you awake.
[5] “When you put the light out,” Dr. Winkle says,“concentrate on relaxing your muscles,working slowly up from your feet,and you 'll be asleep before you know it.”
小題1:What is the main idea of the text? (no more than 5 words)
                                                             
小題2:Complete the following statement with words from Paragraph 2. ( no more than 3 words)
People shouldn't go to sleep immediately but should          after working late in the night.

小題4:Fill in the blank in Paragraph 2 with proper words. (no more than 10 words)

Oh, the things that I should see if I had the power of sight for just three days!
The first day would be a busy one. I should call to me all my dear friends and look long into their faces, imprinting(銘記) upon my mind the outward evidences of the beauty that is within them, I should let my eyes rest, too, on the face of a baby, so that I could catch a vision of the eager, innocent beauty which precedes the individual's consciousness of the conflicts which life develops.
And I should like to look into the loyal, trusting eyes of my dogs--the serious, clever little Scottie, Darkie, and the strong, understanding Great Dane, Helga, whose warm, tender, and playful friendships are so comforting to me.
On that busy first day I should also view the small simple things of my home. I want to see the warm colors in the carpets under my feet, the pictures on the walls, the lovely small furniture that transforms a house into home. My eyes would rest respectfully on the books in dot-raised type which I have read, but they would be more eagerly interested in the printed books which seeing people can read, for during the long night of my life the books I have read and those which have been read to me have built themselves into a great shining lighthouse, showing me the deepest channels of human life and the human spirit.
In the afternoon of that first seeing day, I should take a long walk in the woods and intoxicate (使陶醉) my eyes on the beauties of the world of Nature trying desperately to absorb in a few hours the vast brilliance which is presenting itself to those who can see. On the way home from my woodland trip, my path would lie close to a farm so that I might see the patient horses ploughing in the field and the peaceful content of men living close to the soil. And I should pray for the glory of a colorful sunset.
When dusk had fallen, I should experience the double delight of being able to see by artificial light which the genius of man has created to extend the power of his sight when Nature brings darkness.
In the night of that first day of sight, I should not be able to sleep, so full would be my mind of the memories of the day!
(by Helen Keller)

Homework is a great way for kids to develop independent, lifelong learning skills, so here are some general homework tips for parents:
● Make sure your child has a quiet, well-lit place to do homework.
Avoid having your child do homework with the television on or in places with other distractions, such as people coming and going.
● Make sure the materials your child needs, such as some paper, pencils and a dictionary, are available.
Ask your child if special materials will be needed for some projects and get them in advance.
● Help your child with time management.
Establish a set time each day for doing homework. Don’t let your child leave homework until just before bedtime. Think about using a weekend morning or afternoon for working on big projects, especially if the project involves getting together with classmates.
● Be positive about homework.
Tell your child how important school is. The attitude you express about homework will be the attitude your child acquires.
● When your child asks for help, provide guidance, not answers.
Giving answers means your child will not learn the material. Too much help teaches your child that when the going gets rough, someone will do the work for him or her.
Cooperation with the teacher. It shows your child that the school and home are a team. Follow the directions given by the teacher.
● Reward progress in homework.
If your child has been successful in homework completion and is working hard, celebrate that success with a special even (e.g. pizza, a walk, a trip to the park) to reinforce the positive effort

閱讀表達。(共5小題;每小題2分,共10分。)
Counterfeit (假的) medicines are a widespread problem in developing countries. Like other counterfeits, they look like real products. But counterfeit drugs may contain too little or none of the active ingredients (原料) of the real thing.
People do not get the medicine they need. And in some cases the counterfeits cause death. Twenty children in Bangladesh died last year after being given acetaminophen (醋氨粉). The medications contained ingredients that looked, smelled and tasted like the real thing. The medicine was produced by a local drug company that used a dangerous substitute to save money.
The problem with counterfeit medicines is especially bad in Africa, Asia and Latin America. The W. H. O. estimates that up to thirty percent of the medicines on sale in many of those countries are counterfeit.              . The W. H. O. says counterfeits make up less than one percent of the illegal drug market in countries like the United States, Canada, Japan, and New Zealand.
But the agency also says as much as fifty percent of the medicine sold on the Internet is counterfeit.
Much is being done to fight counterfeit drugs. Several companies are developing ways to make counterfeits easier to identify. And there are existing methods, like a machine that can quickly identify chemicals in pills to confirm if the pills are real. Other ideas include things like special tracking codes for drug packages. People could send a text message with the code and get a message back proving that what they bought is listed in a database. Some drug makers and other companies put three-dimensional images called holograms (條形碼) on their products as a security device.
