8．Everyone can't live without money．（26）C However，money cannot buy everything．You can't buy the following things only relying on money you have．
Time
Money is a tool for trade．We spend most of our time on this earth getting，spending，worrying and fantasying about money．（27）DInstead，money takes away your time that could have been spent playing with your children or having a long walk with your friends．When the sun sets，a day goes away from our life forever．No money has power to bring that back to life．
Self-respect
There are a lot of examples to prove that no money can buy self-respect．（28）B If you are your worst enemy，lots of money can't save you from the self-destruction you add to yourself．
Health
As I write this，I find out that one of my best friends has brain cancer，and it is in the last period．（29）E But no money can buy insurance for his life．We buy insurance for just about everything including our life but money can never bring life back．
Happiness
This is controversial（有爭(zhēng)議的）．Money can buy happiness if it is spent bringing greater financial safety for the family．（30）GGoing after money every day can never find its destination with frequent eagerness to get more．

A．Show your respect for others．
B．Self-respect is got from within．
C．Money can buy a lot of things．
D．You can't buy the time or save it in your storeroom．
E．Of course money can get him the best health care possible．
F．So you should not try your best to earn money without caring about your health．
G．But money can't buy happiness if the purpose is to make money to make other people happy．

7．People have strange ideas about food．For example，tomato is a kind of very delicious vegetable．It is one of useful plants that can be prepared in many ways．It has rich nutrition（營(yíng)養(yǎng)） and vitamin in it．But in the 18th century，Americans never ate tomatoes．They grew them in their gardens because tomato plants are so pretty．But they thought the vegetable was poisonous（有毒的）．They called tomatoes"poison apples"．
President Thomas Jefferson，however，knew that tomatoes were good to eat．He was a learned man．He had been to Paris，where he learned to love the taste of tomatoes．He grew many kinds of tomatoes in his garden．The President taught his cook a way for a cream of tomato soup．This beautiful pink soup was served at the President party．The guests thought the soup tasted really good．They never thought their president would serve his honored guests poison apples．Jefferson never spoke to his honored guests about the fact．

21．Tomato is a kind ofD．
A．poisonous fruit  
B．poisonous vegetable   
C．tasty fruit  
D．tasty vegetable
22．After you read the passage，which of the following do you think is True？B
A．Americans never ate tomatoes after they began to plant them．
B．Americans didn't eat tomatoes before 19th century．
C．Even now Americans don't eat tomatoes．
D．In the 18th century Americans ate a lot of tomatoes．
23．Jefferson learned that tomatoes were good to eatA．
A．while he was in Paris            
B．when he was a little boy
C．because his parents told him so   
D．from books
24．From the passage we know all the honored guests invited by Jefferson wereC．
A．people from other countries       
B．from France
C．people of his own country         
D．men only
25．According to the passage，which of the following is NOT TRUE？D
A．None of the guests knew the soup that was served at the President's party was made of tomatoes．
B．All of the guests thought the soup which was prepared by the President's cook was nice．
C．President Thomas Jefferson knew that tomatoes were good to eat and not poisonous at all．
D．Not all of the guests knew that their president would serve his honored guests poison apples．

6．Dear Susan，
I have been in England three months now．I hope you don't think I have forgotten you．There have been so many places to see and so many things to do that I've not had much time for writing letters．I shall soon be starting my studies at King's College．So far I've been learning about England and British ways of living．I won't tell you about London．There are plenty of books you can read and plenty of pictures you can look at．I'm sure you'll be more interested to know what I think about life here．
I find some of the customs new and interesting．People here do not shake hands so much as we do in Europe．During the first few weeks I was often surprised because people did not put out their hands when I met them．Men raised their hats to women but not to each other．
Yours ever，

5．One day，at a restaurant，my grandmother，my mother and I were having（41）Dafter a morning spent shopping．I（42）Cmy favorite hamburger and fried chips．When brought to the table，it was accompanied by a plate of peas．I'd always（43）Bpeas．I certainly was not about to eat them．
"Eat your peas，"my grandmother said．"Mom，he doesn't like peas，"my mom reminded her in a gentle voice．"Leave him alone．"
My grandmother looked at me，saying the words that attracted my（44）A："I'll give you five dollars if you eat those peas．"I'd want a big toy car and five dollars could certainly make my dream come true．（45）Athe peas were terrible，I began to force them down my throat．Every single pea made me want to throw up，but that five dollars floated before me，and I（46）Bforced down the last one．
That night，at dinner，my mother served two of my favorite（47）C．Along with them came a big bowl of peas．I just wanted to refuse to eat，but mom stared at me．"You ate them for（48）B，"she said．"You can eat them for your health，too．"
What possible argument could I have for that？I ate them that day．My grandmother died a few months later．（49）Dthe habit of eating peas lived on．If I curled my lip（撇嘴） when they were served，my mom would（50）Athe words"You ate them for money，and you can eat them for your health，too．"

3．假設(shè)你是安陽市第三十六中學(xué)學(xué)生李華，得知某英文報(bào)招聘兼職記者，你有意應(yīng)聘，請(qǐng)按下列要點(diǎn)給報(bào)社寫一封自薦信表示感興趣．
說明優(yōu)勢(shì)：知識(shí)面、英語水平、合作精神、相關(guān)經(jīng)歷 （曾在學(xué)校廣播站當(dāng)記者）并希望得到回復(fù)

I'd appreciate it if you could take me into consideration．I'm looking forward to your reply．
Yours faithfully，

2．Why play sports？You might say"to get exercise"and you'd be right．To have fun？That's true，too．But there's more．（36）DAccording to the Women's Sports Foundation，girls who play sports get a lot more than just fit．
Girls who play sports do better in school．You might think that athletics will take up all your study time．（37）GExercise improves learning，memory，and concentration，which can give active girls an advantage in the classroom．
Girls who play sports learn teamwork and goal-setting skills．（38）BWhen working with coaches，trainers，and teammates to win games and achieve goals，you're learning how to be successful．Those skills will serve you well at work and in family life．
Sports are good for a girl's health．In addition to being fit and keeping a healthy weight，girls who play sports are also less likely to smoke．And later in life，girls who exercise are less likely to get breast cancer or osteoporosis（骨質(zhì)酥松癥）．
Playing sports improves self-confidence．（39）EWhy？It builds confidence when you know you can practice，improve，and achieve your goals．Sports are also a feel-good activity because they help girls get in shape，keep a healthy weight，and make new friends．
（40）APlaying sports can reduce stress and help you feel a little happier．How？The brain chemicals released during exercise improve a person's mood．Friends are another mood-lifter．And being in a team creates tight bonds between friends．It's good to know your teammates will support you---both on and off the field!

A．Exercise cuts the pressure．
B．Sports teach valuable life skills．
C．Regular exercise increases quality of life．
D．In fact，there are at least five more reasons．
E．Girls who play sports feel better about themselves．
F．Playing sports offers children more than just physical benefits．
G．But research shows that girls who play sports do better in school than those who don't．

1．5 Things to Do in a Traffic JamTired of traffic jams？Here are some tips that can help you to calm down in a traffic jam．
Listen to a CD audio book
It's a good idea to keep several audio books in your car．（36）G Listening to an exciting story is more interesting than sitting silently and being bored．
Sing loudly
If you begin getting angry because of a long traffic jam，turn your CD player on or radio up．（37）E Imagine you're a wonderful singer and the audience is listening to you in admiration．Your stress will disappear．
（38）A
You can use the radio and play entertaining games while waiting．For example you can   guess the song or the singer or to see how quickly you can recognize a new song．
Have a snack（零食）
Keeping a tasty snack in the car is especially good for waiting in traffic jams．Choose what you like most of all，so you will look forward to traffic jams to have a chance to eat the delicious snack．（39）CIn that case，time is the last thing to worry about．
Argue with the radio talk show host
Find a station with a radio talk show．（40）D If you disagree，you can show your anger．Don't be afraid to call their ideas stupid．Only make sure that the car windows are closed so no one may hear you．
Sitting in a traffic jam can be very stressful but next time you can use these simple tips，and you won't notice how long you have been waiting and soon you will be on your way．

A．Play games        
B．Use the radio．
C．Enjoy every bite of it．
D．Listen to their debates carefully．
E．Loud singing can help to reduce stress．
F．Begin to enjoy them as quickly as you can．
G．The storyteller's voice can clear all your bad emotions．
