“You will be in my heart forever. Without you, there are only emptiness and desert in my life...” This is a line from a heartfelt poem Feng Duan wrote to his fiancee Chen Lianfang in 1955.

Feng is now 94 and Chen 90, and they have been married for more than half a century. Feng, an academic at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, may not be a professional poet but for 64 years, Feng has written countless love poems to his wife. On every important anniversary or festival, Feng would send a poem to Chen. In 1978, when Chen’s cancer surgery succeeded, Feng created more than ten poems to celebrate his wife’s recovery. Chen used a red suitcase to store these love poems. The academic has also translated many English, French and German poems into classical Chinese.

The couple was introduced to each other by a common friend in 1953 and Feng sent two paper copies of poems to Chen as a gift.

“As long as I think of you, a beam of sunshine lights up my heart,” Feng wrote.

Chen recalled the first time Feng invited her to his dormitory to have a cup of tea and she thought the cup was made of frosted glass. As the two became closer, Chen often visited the academic’s dorm. She realized that the cup was the only one poor Feng owned. The opaque (不透明的) cup was not frosted glass but common glass stained with toothpaste.

Later she bought many clothes and even a stove for Feng, making a nice change from the single man s life. Feng’s marriage to Chen brought more happiness and now Chen still looks after Feng’s daily needs.

1.When Feng first met Chen, he was .

A. 32 B. 30

C. 28 D. 26

2.What change did Chen bring to Feng?

A. Chen made a great difference to Feng’s daily life.

B. Chen changed Feng’s academic life greatly.

C. Chen wrote a lot of poems to Feng.

D. Chen introduced a lot of friends to Feng.

3.What can we learn from the passage?

A. Chen and Feng happened to meet each other on the campus.

B. Feng wrote many poems in different languages.

C. Chen cherished the poems Feng wrote to her.

D. Feng liked his opaque cup so much.

4.The writer wrote the passage to show .

A. how a famous poet writes love poems to his wife

C. how important love poems are in the marriage

D. how the love poems make the couple famous

It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over. Some kids feel nervous or a little scared on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while. Let’s find out more about going to a new school.

Most teachers kick off the new school year by introducing themselves and talking about all the stuff you'll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class, too. When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules and school rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Please pay close attention.

You might already know a lot of people in your classes on the first day, but it’s a great day to make a new friend, so try to say hello to kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad you did, and so will your new friend!

Seeing friends you haven't seen in a while can make the first day a good one. You can make the day feel special by wearing clothes that you really like. Maybe you got a great T-shirt on one of your vacations, or a pair of sneakers (运动鞋).It also can make you feel good to be prepared and have all the things you need, such as pencils, folders, and whatever else you’ll be needing. But make sure that you pack them the night before in case you don't have time in the morning.

1.The underlined phrase “kick off” in the second paragraph probably means“________.”

A. start B. study

C. find D. teach

2.The last paragraph mainly tell us about ________.

A. what to know about a new school

B. how to prepare for a new school

C. what to do on your first day of school

D. how to spend your first day of school

3.According to the passage you usually do everything on the first day of school except ________.

A. introduce yourself

B. learn about the school rules

C. make new friends

D. go over your new lessons

4.The main idea of the passage is ________.

A. how to be used to a new school quickly

B. how to make new friends in a new school

C. what to wear on the first day of the new school

D. what to prepare for the first day of the new school

There is an island called Kitava, way out there in the Pacific Ocean, in the Milne Bay Province of Papua New Guinea. It is one of the four main Trobriand Islands with a total population of 12,000 native residents. Rich with culture, surrounded on all sides by clear blue water and abundant rainforest, Kitava is as apealing as it is remote. But it has more to offer than good views.

As Byrdie reports, Kitava is also home to a people whose diet and nutritional habits remain healthy, untouched by Western influence. A lifetime of not knowing the sweet, sweet sensation of the salt from a potato chip hitting the roof of your mouth has done more than just spare Kitavans from illnesses like diabetes and cardiovascular disease; it's also given them a lifetime of smooth, acne(痤疮) - free skin.

In a study of l',200 subjects - including 300 teens and young adults - conducted by a team led by medical doctor and professor Steffan Lindeberg over 843 days, not one breakout was reported. They also found that genetics played little to no role in the results.

In fact, the average Kitavan diet is fairly common. It' s simple, with no " miracle fruit" or " rare nut" to speak of, and Kitavans don' t even exercise much. That diet consists mainly of yams( 山荮) , sweet potatoes, and taro (芋头) , local fruits (namely coconut) ,fish, and vegetables.

But if you're already pulling out your suitcases and drafting a resignation letter to your boss, you might want to slow your step. For one thing, the closest airport is over 700 miles away from the island, so good luck getting there. And consider this: do you really want to move somewhere where you'll be the only person with acne until the diet kicks in? I don't think so.

1.Which are the contributing factors of attracting visitors to the island?

a. Rich culture . b. Clean white sand c. Thick rainforest

d. Clear blue water e. Romote tribes

A. abc B. acd C. bcd D. ade

2.What accounts for the fact that the Kitavans own good skin?

A. They don't like eating salt. . B. They enjoy varieties of rare fruits.

C. They are sick of exercising. D. They follow simple but healthy diet.

3.What is unlikely to be included in the Kitavans' diet? .

A. Taro B. Fish

C. Potato chips D. Coconut

4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A. Think twice before moving to Kitava.

B. Don’t hesitate to quit your job and move there.

C. One can reach Kitava by plane without difficulty.

D. Anyone will own acne - free skin on stepping on Kitava.

5．Life offers two choices．We can live to survive or to soar to unlimited heights．The choices are modeled by two creatures．
A few months back while sitting in a boat fishing with a couple of friends，I noticed a field mouse on the river bank．He ran out of his hole，ran in a couple of directions，and then ran back inside．I thought of the existence of this little creature．His life is spent running around，frightened and panicky，following his nose．
He darts here，dashes there，turns in circles，but never really sees much beyond his nose．He is trying to smell his way to successful living，which，defined by a mouse's existence，is finding some daily food to sustain himself so that he can carry on for the rest of his life，frightened and frantic．Sounds familiar．
A few minutes later I glanced up and noticed，soaring high above，was an osprey（鱼鹰）．I saw a wide winged creature using air currents to fly high．
Rather than simply fighting to exist，this keen-eyed hunter with a broad view of the river，lake and mountains was waiting for the appropriate time to catch his prey（猎物）．This amazing creature glides（滑翔）toward a nest at the top of the tallest of trees instead of returning to some tiny hole in the riverbank．
The strength in his wings，the power in his talons （爪子），the amazing ability of his vision，the effortless capacity to soar…it is the osprey，not the field mouse，that models our human potential．
I don't know about you，but it is easy for me to decide which creature I want to represent my life．I want to soar．I want to explore．I want to see the big picture．I want to conquer．I want to climb higher，go farther，dive deeper and experience more．
I want my soul enlarged，my mind expanded，my heart enlivened and my spirit energized．I want to stop running．I want the frantic chasing of my nose to end．I want new strength，fresh thinking and clear vision．I want to be more and more like the osprey．

59．What is the author's main purpose in writing the article？B
A．To discuss two animals that represent different lifestyles．
B．To discuss what kind of life he wants to live．
C．To explain how he makes difficult choices．
D．To explain how the field mouse and osprey differ in their living habits．
60．According to the author，the field mouseC．
A．has a good sense of direction
B．relies on its fast speed to find food
C．lives in fear in order to survive
D．is constantly under the threat of the osprey
61．What is the author's impression of the osprey？D
A．It is a strong and friendly creature with keen eyes．
B．It reminds us of the importance of patience and timing．
C．The way it preys has much in common with that of humans．
D．The way it lives can inspire us to reach our full potential．
62．Which of the following best describes the author？A
A．Ambitious．B．Sensitive．C．Optimistic．D．Creative．
