A. B. C.
B 【解析】 W: What outdoor activity do you like best, Simon? M: I love horses and horse-riding is my favorite.We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jerry really feel good about as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it’s too late.
Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don’t really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “You’re a lucky dog.” Is he really on your side? If he says, “You’re a lucky guy.” or“You’re a lucky gal.” That’s being friendly. But “lucky dog”? There’s a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn’t see it himself. But bringing in the “dog” bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is he doesn’t think you deserve your luck.
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture(体态)? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. Spend some time thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you, and you may save another mistake.

A. feels happy because his friends were nice to him
B. feels he may not have “read” his friends’ true feelings correctly

D. is sorry that his friends let him down
2.From the example “You’re a lucky dog”, we can learn that ______________.
A. the speaker of the sentence is friendly
B. it means the same as “You’re a lucky guy.” or “You’re a lucky gal.”
C. sometimes the words used by the speaker give a tip to the feeling behind the words
D. the word “dog” shouldn’t be used to describe a person
3.The passage tries to tell you how to ___________.
A. avoid mistakes about money and friends
B. bring the “dog” bit into our conversation
C. be friendly to other people
D. avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you
4.What is important in listening to a person?

A. cleans B. cleaned C. to clean D. Clean
D 【解析】 句意:Miss Sarah让Tom打扫教室一周,因为他今天上午上学迟到了。短语make sb. do sth.表示使某人做某事。根据题意,故选D。The teacher came into the classroom while the students _________ their homework.
A. are doing B. did C. were doing
C 【解析】 句意:当学生们正在做作业的时候,老师走进了教室。are doing正在做,现在进行时;did做,是do的过去式;were doing正在做,过去进行时。根据句中The teacher came into…可知,这句话用的是过去时态,且从句中表示的是正在进行的动作,因此应用过去进行时态,选C。完成表格。阅读下面短文,根据短文内容,完成表格中所缺的信息,并将其答案的完整形式写在答题卡上相应的位置。每空一词。
There are many libraries in Britain. Let's learn something about them.
Public libraries
Most towns in Britain have a public library. A library usually has a large selection of books and other resources, which library members can use and borrow for free.
Britain’s First Public Library
The first Britain’s public library opened in Manchester in 1852. Its first librarian was a man called Edward Edwards. Edwards attended the library’s opening ceremony and two famous writers called Charles Dickens and William Thackeray were there, too.
Services of library
Modern public libraries have something for everyone. Most of them have audio books, CDs, newspapers and DVDs as well as books to borrow.
How to Join a Library
To join a library, go to your local library and fill in a form. You'll receive a library card which is needed when using library services.
Mobile Libraries
Not everyone can get to a library. Some people live far away from towns and cities. Other people find it difficult to go out because they have an illness or a disability. Thanks to mobile libraries, these people can still borrow books.
The libraries are special. Unlike most libraries, which store books in buildings, mobile libraries usually keep their books in a mini-bus. The back of the mini-bus has shelves for the books, and it is big enough for borrowers to step inside and look around. A driver take the mini-bus to a certain place at a certain time, so people know when to expect it. They can return their books and borrow some more.
All Aboard the Library!
A school in London didn't have space for a library inside the building. However, everybody agreed that it was still important to have a school library So, the head of the school, Graham Blake, decided to park an old bus on the school car park and change it into a library. Pupils helped to paint the bus, and after eight months, the new library was ready.
