In this constantly changing world, how to put the knowledge 【1】 (gain) every day into 【2】 (real) has interested numerous people. As a proverb goes, “Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key 【3】 it.” Apparently, this saying 【4】 (try) to deliver the message 【5】 we ought not to stop practicing it if we 【6】 (true) want to master the knowledge we learn,

There are several reasons 【7】 (account) for this statement. To begin with, human beings are forgetful beings; therefore, only when we use knowledge, make 【8】 (mistake), and try to use it again will we be able to remember it by our heart. Moreover, knowledge has become growingly complicated and we can seldom grasp the essence of it if we do not practice it again and again.

Practicing, to sum up, 【9】 (be) of greatest importance for those who are determined to learn knowledge well. As a student, I hope that the young can focus more attention on practicing 【10】 they learn.

Lots of people like a good fright at Halloween(萬(wàn)圣節(jié)). Yet, the most frightening thing of all about the night is that twice as many children are killed while out and about on Halloween compared to any other day of the year, according to a study by Safe Kids Worldwide. It can also be a worrying time for others, especially elderly people living alone. But many people think it’s just harmless fun.

But is it harmless fun?

Police forces across Britain are giving warnings about Halloween night. They are asking all those wishing to celebrate Halloween this year to respect those who don’t want to join in.

Some forces, like West Mercia Police, have produced “Sorry, No Trick or Treat”posters which can be downloaded from their website, and put up in windows. They want people to send them to the old or anyone who may be frightened by ghosts(鬼) knocking on their doors.

A spokesman said: “Children should not call on houses where the posters are put up, neither should they call on strangers, as this can put young people at risk and also make some house owners anxious, especially those who are elderly or living alone.”

The police want all trick or treaters to remember that disturbing other people or throwing objects at their homes or cars are all criminal offences(刑事罪). “What may start off as a bit of fun could end up with someone getting a criminal record,” they warn. “Parents may want to consider having a Halloween party at home, instead.”

Kent Police are warning young people never to go into the home of someone they don’t know—and to remember not to frighten people.

Warwickshire Police are also warning that tricks may seem like harmless fun but can cause trouble to others. They say behaviour such as throwing eggs can quickly cross the line between being anti-social and causing criminal damage. This can result in fines of ￡2,500 for small offences.

【1】The study made by Safe kids Worldwide has found that _________.

A．kids are afraid of Halloween

B．Halloween brings people no fun

C．kids are involved in criminal offences

D．Halloween night puts some kids at risk

【2】British police forces are making efforts to _________.

A．put an end to trick or treat

B．control anti-social behaviours

C．punish those who frighten others

D．make Halloween safe trouble-free

【3】“Sorry, No Trick or Treat ” posters are designed to _________.

B．make some people free from harm

C．warn little kids to behave themselves

D．express disagreement with Halloween

【題目】Sometimes, kindness is a simple answer in a difficult and challenging world.

When my granddaughter, Skylar, was young, one day we went out and had a contest called “Who can make the most people smile. “ And we continue it today. When shopping, we were walking in the supermarket and noticed someone walking down the aisle with her head down. Skylar walked up to her and gave her a big smile. I watched her walk down the aisle, turned around and smiled at Skylar again or perhaps smiled at someone else.

Kindness is a chain that pulls us all together. Every single act of kindness has a ripple effect(連鎖反應(yīng)). In 2002, my dad had a series of strokes and other illness. My dad had been doing nice things for all sorts of people for years, from the street crossing guard, to the waitress in a restaurant, to a friend’s mother. That same day, I made cookies for the janitor（門衛(wèi)） at the post office. When I gave him the cookies he actually looked a little embarrassed. “Why, Linda?” he asked. “Because I appreciate you!” I answered. “When I get here at 6 am and it is still dark out and it is a little scary, I know you are inside and I feel safe. And when I first moved here and my post office box was always empty, you always cheered me on. And you always keep this place clean.”

That evening his wife called me and said that he was overwhelmed(受寵若驚的). “No one even knows his name, let alone bakes him cookies!” she said. （278 words）

【1】What was the author’s attitude to the contest in the supermarket?

A. positive B. negative

C. neutral D. curious

【2】From the text, what can we know about the janitor?

A. He led a very poor life at that time.

B. He always went to work after six o’clock.

C. He was fond of baking cookies.

D. He was kind and grateful.

【3】What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. Kindness can always be passed on.

B. An experience in a supermarket.

C. The importance of having a kind dad.

D. Smile makes your life meaningful.

【題目】閱讀下面短文，按照句子結(jié)構(gòu)的語(yǔ)法性和上下文連貫的要求，在空格處填入一個(gè)適當(dāng)?shù)脑~或使用括號(hào)中詞語(yǔ)的正確形式填空，并將答案填寫在答卷標(biāo)號(hào)為1—10的相應(yīng)位置上。

One afternoon many years ago, I sat down on a chair in a park and watched a little boy, around 2 years old, 【1】 (run) freely on the grass as his mother watched from a short distance．The boy would fall to the grass, get up, and without looking back at his mother, run as fast as he could as if nothing 【2】 ( happen)．

When kids fall down, they don't think of the fall as 【3】 failure. Instead, they consider 【4】 as a learning experience．They try and try again 【5】 they succeed．

I was also touched by the way he ran. With each attempt, he looked so 【6】 (confidence) and natural．He only wanted to run freely and to do it as well as he could．He was just being a child--- being himself completely at the moment．He never gave up．Each time he fell, he 【7】 got up again, as if he knew that falling down was 【8】 (simple) a part of life．

He was not looking for others' smiles, or worrying 【9】 whether someone was watching or not. 【10】 he wanted was to run and to feel the experience of running fully and freely．I learned a lot from the experience.
