Lulu is a brave pet in our shelter. As you know, there are a lot of forest fires during the summer season. Many forests are badly damaged by fire each year. Not far from our shelter, a forest caught fire during this hot summer. We were in a heat wave which had been   31  for three days.
Lulu rushed towards the forest where flames sent out a terrible   32 ．I no longer had any hope that Lulu would come back to the shelter．In fact, I was waiting for the firemen to announce his   33  in the forest, when suddenly, a fireman burst into my shelter and informed me that my dog Lulu had   34    to save four kittens(小貓) who were trapped by the flames．According to the fireman, Lulu seized the kittens, one by one moving them to a safe place．I immediately accompanied(陪同) the fireman to the forest to   35    the rescued kittens．When we arrived   36   the scene of the incident, we found Lulu was not there. Then we heard the   37   of a dog from the forest barking furiously (猛烈地). I recognized it was my dog Lulu．The fireman followed the tracks of the dog until we found him barking   38   by the side of an injured fireman who was lying on the ground and desperately(絕望地) waiting for rescue．Thanks to Lulu, four kittens and a fireman were saved.
That day, I was very proud of Lulu for his two heroic(英雄的) 39   toward the kittens and the fireman．Lulu showed much compassion (同情) for both animals like him and for a human being who was trying to   40   the fire with his colleagues(同事)．
This true story of genuine(真的) love and compassion shows us that pets are loving, caring and considerate(考慮周到的)．We should love and protect them．One day they could do us a good turn.

Friendship continues to remain central to our lives. Friends often affect our health and energy. More and more people are increasingly turning towards their friends for support and sharing rather than just communicating with their relatives. We may have a very unclear understanding of what makes a friend but we all want to have a good number of friends around us. There are certain things you do to help you make friends or at least help you get close to people whom you want to make friends with.
The first step to make friends with people is to make them like you. If they don’t like you in the first place, it is unlikely that they’ll be eager to become your friends. To let someone know that you are interested in him, simple gestures like a little smile and calling him by his name can help. To make the other person feel important, you need to be a good listener and to encourage him to talk. Give your honest and sincere opinion, but do not make fun of him.
The second step is to develop trust in each other. You need to share opinions with this person and it is necessary for you to develop a habit of seeing things from his point of view. To become the best of friends, you must show concern and consideration for your friends’ desires and opinions.
The third and final step is to show your support and encouragement towards your friend. Moreover, you also need to be very clear about your expectations from your friend. If what you expect from the person you want to be a friend matches with what that person can and wants to do in friendship, the developing friendship between you and your friend is sure to be easy and successful.

Every child has written their names on the beach at some point.

The word “HAMAD” measures 1,000 meters high and is a staggering two miles long from the “H” to the “D” on the Al Futaisi Island.

D. The word “HAMAD” cost his workmen a lot of hard work for several weeks.
小題3:Why does Hamad have his seven Mercedes-Benz500 SELs painted in different colors?
A．Perhaps he hoped his cars were stored in a giant pyramid safely.
B．In some ways he could make a very strange rainbow.

D．He is always interested in making his cars like these.
小題4:Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?

It takes less than six seconds to leave a first impression. It is said that we ought not judge a book by its cover, but come on, isn’t it the color, the design, the layout, and the title that draw us to pick up a book we’ve never heard of before? Notice what your assumptions are about a person when you are first introduced to her or him.
Something that most of us don’t take notice of is how we stand or walk. Let’s say you are going for a job interview. Within seconds you have already said a lot about yourself by the way you walk. The majority of us walk around everyday without paying any attention to what we are saying even though we are not uttering a word. There is a lot that can be said about body language from the clothes you wear to the gestures you make.
I took notice of this topic recently as I recalled something about changing my posture to improve my level of confidence. I was about to venture on a new project, which would take me out of my comfort zone. My gremlins (小精靈) were having a field day with me uttering all kinds of reasons why I couldn’t do a good job with this new opportunity. I tucked in my tummy (收縮肚子) , put my shoulders back , held my head high , and took a walk. Soon thereafter, I felt so much better. I approached the project with new possibility. Wow, what a difference ! Try it !
The ability to capture your audience when you walk into a room is sure to start you off on the right foot when going on an interview. Non-verbal signals have five times the impact of verbal (言語(yǔ)的)signals. So you can count on losing your audience when you walk in with head down dragging your feet regardless how much you try to change it.
小題1:In the first paragraph the author intends to tell us         .
A．we shouldn’t judge a book by its cover
B．a(chǎn) person’s appearance can be misread
C．the first impression really means a lot
D．we should focus more on a person’s qualities
小題2:The author approached his project with new possibility after        .
A．his gremlins stopped talking
B．he got rid of all his negative thoughts
C．he walked out of his comfort zone
D．he changed his posture to improve his confidence
小題3:According to the author , when we go for a job interview , we       .
A．shouldn’t say a lot about ourselves
B．shouldn’t walk with our head high up
C．should pay enough attention to our body language and gesture
D．should only pay attention to the way we walk within the first few seconds
小題4:The author probably believes that        .
A．non-verbal signals are more important than verbal signals
B．non-verbal signals are not so easy to catch
C．we mainly rely on verbal signals during an interview
D．we shouldn’t pay too much attention to our non-verbal signals
小題5:What is mainly talked about in the passage?
A．How to prepare for a job interview
B．The way we walk says a lot about us.
C．How to read a person from the way he walks.
D．How complicated body language is.

In-line skating（滾軸溜冰）is a fun sport that everyone can enjoy. Follow these safety tips to keep skating safe and fun.
Step 1: Gear up!
Even before you put on your skates, put on all your safety gear（護(hù)具）.
Step 2: Buckle up!
Strap（綁緊）on your skates. Make sure they fit well and are snugly（緊貼）around your ankles. This helps your ankles stay strong and straight.

Step 3: Fall down!
You probably do not usually try to fall. But it is good to practice falling on skates. Fall forward onto your knee pads. Put out your hands and let your wrist guards hit the ground. See? Are you surprised that it doesn’t hurt?
Practice falling until it is easy to fall forward and get up again. If you are not afraid to fall, you will try new things. Knowing how to fall will help you be a better skater and find your balance. When you can stay balanced, you won’t fall as much.
Step 4: Stop!
Make sure you can stop on your skates. The quickest and safest is probably the brake stop. The brake is usually on the back of the right skate.
The brake stop:
Roll forward with your skates pointing the same way. Let your right skate roll a little forward. Bend your knees as if you are sitting down. Then press your right heel down hard. This will make your brake pad drag on the ground until you stop.
The T stop:
Roll forward with your skates pointing the same way. Then turn your right foot out so the toes are pointing to your right. Drag your right skate. Let the wheels drag on the ground until you come to a stop.
Another way to stop is to run or jump onto the grass.
Step 5: Roll around!
Find a flat, smooth place to practice. Do not skate in streets. Parks and playgrounds are good places to practice. Look for “No skating” signs to make sure you can skate there.
小題1:According to the article, which of these steps are most important for a new skater?
A．Learn to fall and stop safely.
B．Find a class and skate fast.
C．Relax and have fun.
D．Buy expensive gear and skates.
小題2:In the step right after “Buckle up!” you should practice how to _____________.
A．skate fastB．brakeC．fall safelyD．put on gear
小題3:To begin a brake stop, you should let your right skate roll forward, bend your knees, and _________.
A．turn your foot
B．press your right heel down
C．put your wrists out in front
D．tighten your skates

As soon as you meet, or even see, a person, you form an impression of him based on his posture, gesture and facial expressions. This is why it is important to make a good first impression on the person who will be interviewing you. Within the first 60 seconds of meeting you, the interviewer will have formed an impression about what type of person you are and what kind of employee you would become, and 55% of this will be based only on your body language. Here are some tips to make you that impression a good one.
First of all, relax. Think positive thoughts and you are more likely to come across as a positive, confident person during the interview. Dress smartly, as your appearance is one of the first things an interviewer will notice you. Stand up straight, and walk in with your shoulders back and your head up. Try to avoid slowing down as you walk into the room because this suggests fear and uncertainty. Shake hands with the interviewer firmly. You should have a positive handshake and a warm smile. Open your coat or jacket as you sit down shows that you, too, are open.
Posture is important. You should be sitting well back in your seat. Sit up straight and lean forward slightly, but not too much. Sitting at too much of an angel expresses discomfort and distrust. Two of the most common defensive(防衛(wèi)的) signals are crossing your arms and legs, so try to avoid them.
Another important issue is eye contact. Looking someone in the eye shows confidence in yourself and trust in the other person. However, don’t overdo it, as too much eye contact or starring will make the other person uncomfortable. Use more eye contact when listening than when talking, and when you look away, look down. Looking up at the ceiling will make you seem bored and rude.
小題1:The purpose of the first impression is to tell readers __________.
A．what a good first impression is
B．how to make a good first impression
C．how long it takes to make a first impression
D．the importance of making a good first impression
小題2:Which of the following does the author advise you to do when you are being interviewed?
A．Cross your arms or legs
B．Open your coat or jacket when sitting down
C．Go into the room more slowly than usual
D．Avoid looking at the eyes of the interviewer directly
小題3:If you lean forward too much, it means __________.
A．you are very bored
B．you are too nervous
C．you don’t have confidence
D．you don’t trust others
小題4: What is the best title for the passage?
A．How to use body language to win an interview
B．How to answer questions in an interview
C．How to understand body language
D．How to deal with an interviewer

For many years, Hawaii has been a magic name to people who like to travel. People on both sides of the Pacific Ocean, in Japan and in America, dream of seeing these beautiful islands in the middle of the ocean. Their dreams always include at least one scene of a sunset over the ocean. In the tropical(熱帶的) lands, the sun drops, like a ball of golden fire, into the sea, and it droops so quickly that you can almost see it move. The sun leaves behind a glow that lights the skies and shines in the quiet water.
People often have a quiet, peaceful time ---perfect for a leisurely(悠閑的) walk along the water. This scene is not too different from the dramatic(令人神往的) beauty that greeted the first strangers to these islands centuries ago. They were Polynesian people who came from Tahiti in canoes not much bigger than small boats.
They found the beautiful white sand beaches and the waving palm trees, but there were no giant hotels like the ones we see nowadays. The first people came to Hawaii nearly two thousand years ago, but skyscraper hotels were only built in the last 25 years. Now jet planes make it possible to fly to for a weekend from Tokyo. Wherever the people come from, they really want to see the original beauty of Hawaii. They want to see the lovely beaches and the mountain called Diamond Head which is almost hidden by the tall hotels.

A．given by people who like to travel
