It is easy for many people to catch a cold in the springtime or fall. It makes us wonder if scientists can send a man to the moon, why can’t they find a cure for the common cold? The answer is easy. There are actually hundreds of kinds of cold viruses out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn’t a cure for each one.
When a virus attacks your body, your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood rushes to your nose and cause a block in it. You feel terrible because you can’t breathe well, but your body is actually eating the virus. Your temperature goes up and you get a fever, but the heat of your body is killing the virus. You also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting into your cells. You may feel very uncomfortable, but actually your wonderful body is doing everything it can to kill the cold.
Different people do different things to deal with colds. In the United States and some other countries, for example, people might eat chicken soup to make themselves feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm liquids. Other people take medicine to stop various symptoms (症状) of colds.
There is one interesting thing to note —some scientists say taking medicines when you have a cold is actually bad for you. The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn’t have a way to fight it and kill it. Bodies can do an amazing job on their own. There is a joke, however, on taking medicine when you have a cold. It goes like this:
It takes about one week to get over a cold if you don’t take medicine, but it takes only seven days to get over a cold if you take medicine.

“Everybody loves a bargain.” Is a well-known saying. One person’s useless, ugly, or broken object can be another person’s bargain. That is why so many Americans do not throw things away. They put them outside their house. They put on a "For Sale" sign. And, as simple as that, they have a yard sale.

The sellers put a paid announcement in a local newspaper. It tells when and where the yard sale will take place. These sales are very popular during weekends in spring, summer, and autumn.

Early in the morning, all the things to be sold are carried out of the house. Then they sit all day in the sunlight -- like tired guests at a party -- waiting for someone to take them home.

Just about anything can be sold at a yard sale. Sometimes, there are more clothes than anything else. Cooking equipment is also popular. So are old toys, tools, books, tables, and chairs. Then there are objects called "white elephants." A white elephant is something you think is extremely ugly or useless. It may be an electric light shaped like a fish. You feel a sharp pain whenever you look at it. To someone else, however, it might be a thing of beauty and joy.

Some people go to yard sales to find a special thing that they collect. It may be old toy trains, for example, or paintings of dogs. Experts say more Americans are collecting old things now than ever before. Most people who go to yard sales, however, are not looking for anything special. They might buy an object simply because it costs so little. They enjoy negotiating over prices, even if they really do not need the object. Later, they may hold their own yard sale to sell all the things they have bought.

1.What kind of things will go to a yard sale?

A．Cheap and ugly things． B．Things people no longer use．

A．find Valuable paintings B．look for something special

C．find a bargain D．kill their time

4.Which of the following is NOT true about a yard sale?

A．It may not be held when the weather is very cold．

B．It can last for a whole day．

C．It is usually held with a party．

D．It is held outdoors．

5.We can infer from the last paragraph that ______ ．

A．people may find something of great value on a yard sale

B．yard sales only attract those who have a low income

第三节：阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2分，共30分）

请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Strong winds, sand in the air, poor visibility (能见度), we all know the characteristics of a sandstorm. But what else do you know about them?

Did you know, for example, that the first sandstorm of 2009 hit north China’s Inner Mongolia autonomous region late February?

Sandstorms are today a feature of life in northern China because of desertification (沙漠化) and the retreat (退化) of the northern grasslands. They usually occur between February and May.

Fortunately, sandstorms this year should be fewer than in past years in north China, according to the National Meteorological Center (中央气象台).

And the chances of sandstorms hitting Beijing are small, because recent rain has stopped drought and reduced dry dirt and dust. Tree planting, and other measures taken by the government, has also helped decrease the chance of sandstorms in the city.

Sandstorms can be dangerous. However, there are measures you can take to protect yourself from harm.

﹡Wear a mask. Cover your nose and mouth with a mask that can keep out sand, or use a damp handkerchief.

﹡If you are driving and the storm is at a distance, it may be possible to outrun (超过) it. If it looks like you will be caught in the storm, stop and wait it out.

﹡Take a cover. If there is no shelter, then lie down. Keep eyes, nose and mouth covered. Cover your head with your arms or a backpack to protect yourself against flying objects.

If you are caught in a desert sandstorm, take the following actions.

﹡Mark your direction before lying down. It is easy to get lost in a desert.

﹡Keep plenty of water at hand. If you get lost, you need water to survive until you find your way or help arrives.

﹡Stay together if traveling in a group. Lock arms if caught in a sandstorm. The most useful measure would actually be to make sandstorms disappear forever. To make this goal come true, people should plant trees, and stop desertification.

Today, the straight-line distance between Tiananmen Square and a desert called Tianmo in Hebei province is only about 80km. If desertification is not stopped, environmental protection experts say, it will probably not be long before Beijingers can catch a camel to work.

56.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?

A. So far in 2009 no sandstorm has happened.

B. Sandstorms usually happen in spring.

C. Sandstorms are a feature of life in China.

D. In sandstorms in cities, what you need to protect yourself from is just the sand in the air.

57.Which may not be the right action to take to protect yourself from harm in a sandstorm?

A. Finding a shelter.

B. Covering your head with a bag.

C. Lying down.

D. When driving, speed up and rush through the sandstorm.

58.What can we infer from the passage ?

A. North China has been suffering from sandstorms for several years.

B. The distance between Beijing and the desert has made the chances of sandstorms hitting Beijing small this year.

C. Planting trees can help make sandstorms disappear.

D. It is more dangerous to be caught in sandstorms in cities because there are more flying objects.

59.What’s the best title of the passage?

A. The realities of sandstorm B. The cause of sandstorm.

C. The influences of sandstorm D. The future of sandstorm.
