His words circled in my head long after we landed．Bill wasn't perfect．But then，was I？I kept complaining about his messiness and forgot his kindness，his ability to see the bright side of every situation-qualities that ran so much deeper，the reasons I had married him in the first place．
I took out my cell phone and called Bill．"I miss you already．"I said．"I miss you too，Kim，"he said．As soon as my flights were over，I rushed home．Bill met me at the door．"I have a surprise for you．"he said and led me into the kitchen．I glanced around the room．He really had worked hard．In spite of the fingerprints on that microwave floor，I could see our reflection in it：my husband and I，our smiles glowing with love for each other，just like in our wedding photos．

7．When 19-year-old Sophia Giorgi said she was thinking of volunteering to help the make-A-Wish Foundation，nobody understood what she was talking about．But Sophia knew just how important Make-A-Wish could be because this special organization had helped to make a dream come true for one of her best friends．We were interested in finding out more，so we went along to meet Sophia listen to what she had to say．
Sophia told us that Make-A-Wish is a worldwide organization that started in the United States in 1980．"It's a charity that helps children who have got very serious illnesses．Make-A-Wish help children feel happy even though they are sick，by making their wishes and dreams come true，"Sophia explained．
We asked Sophia how Make-A-Wish had first started．She said it had all begun with a very sick young boy called Chris，who had dreamed for a long time of becoming a policeman．Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris's dream come true--so，with everybody's help，Chris，only seven years old at the time，had been a"policeman"for a day．"When people saw how delighted Chris was when his dream came true，they decided to try and help other sick children too，and that was the beginning of Make-A-Wish，"explained Sophia．
Sophia also told us the Foundation tries to give children and their families a special，happy time．A Make-A-Wish volunteer visits the families and asks the children what they would wish for if  they could have anything i n the world．Sophia said the volunteers were important because they were the ones who helped to make the wishes come true．They do this either by providing things that are necessary，or by raising money or helping out in whatever way they can．

21．Sophia found out about Make-A-Wish because her best friend hadA．
A．benefited from it                                  
B．volunteered to help it 
C．dreamed about it                                  
D．told the author about it
22．According to Sophia，Make-A-WishA
A．is an international charity                             
B．was understood by nobody at first
C．raises money for very poor families               
D．started by drawing the interest of the public
23．What is said about Chris in Paragraph 3？B
A．He has been a policeman since he was seven．
B．He gave people the idea of starting Make-A-Wish
C．He wanted people to help make his dream come true．
D．He was the first child Make-A-Wish helped after it had been set up．
24．Which of the following is true about Make-A-Wish volunteers？A
A．They are important for making wishes come true．
B．They try to help children get over their illnesses．
C．They visit sick chil dren to make them feel special．
D．They provide what is necessary to make Make-A-Wish popular．
9．Adults are happy to tell their children that crusts （面包皮） will give them curly hair，carrots will help them see in the dark，and spinach will make them strong．Even though adults know it's not totally true，they think it's good for their children's health，a study had found．
In a study about 31 percent of adults said they once told their children the curly hair tale，and 36 percent said they'd been told the same thing by their mother or father．Among the over-50s，almost half said they'd been promised curly hair if they ate their crusts．A quarter of the 2，000 adults questioned in the study told their children carrots would help them see in the dark．This could be true to some extent because of the high levels of vitamin A and beta-carotene in root vegetables．
Another favorite among parents is that milk will make one strong．A third surveyed said their parents told them this，and about 29 percent said they told their children the same thing．But while there is plenty of evidence to suggest milk is good for people's health，there are also a lot of scientific papers saying it isn't．
Thanks to Popeye，spinach is also fed to children，along with the idea that it will make them strong．While there is also some truth in this one，scientists now believe it is not the iron，but the inorganic nitrates （无机硝酸盐） that improve physical power．
One in seven of the surveyed admitted telling their little ones that runner beans will make them run faster，which is nothing more than wordplay and has no basis in science．Almost one in five adults were subjected to the same tale in childhood．
Just over one in 10 parents told their children green food would turn them into a superhero，and a quarter admitted hiding vegetables in meals．
Lyndsay Jones，spokesman for Persil Washing Up Liquid，said，"It's clear that the most persuasive stories about food are passed on from generation to generation．Our research shows that the ideas continue，and we tell our kids the same things our parents told us，even if they're not always entirely true．"
Crusts may not make your hair curly，but there's plenty of research that says crusts contain more of the goodness than the rest of a loaf．Hopefully，as a result of our Cook with Kids promise，more parents will be encouraged to spend time with their children in the kitchen and teach them the truth about food．

32．We can know from Paragraph 3 thatC．
A．milk is beneficial to children's physical strength
B．a third people are forced to drink milk by their parents
C．there is doubt whether milk is helpful to people's health 
D．about 29 percent people wish their children good health

B．Adults are willing to teach their children as their parents did．
C．Stories about food shouldn't be passed on from generation to generation．
D．Parents can't make sure if some stories about food are totally true．
34．We can learn from the passage thatB．
A．parents are expected to tell children the truth about food
B．scientists think the iron in spinach helps children grow strong
C．runner beans can really make children run fast
D．crusts are said to contain less nutrition than a loaf
35．How is the passage mainly developed？C
A．By making comparisons．
B．By following time order                                   
C．By giving examples．
D．By analyzing causes．
6．For many parents，raising a teenager is like fighting a long war，but years go by without any clear winner．Like a border conflict between neighboring countries，the parent-teen war is about boundaries：Where is the line between what I control and what you do？
Both sides want peace，but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict．In part，this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it．From the parents'point of view，the only cause of their fight is their adolescents'complete unreasonableness．And of course，the teens see it in exactly the same way，except oppositely． Both feel trapped．
In this article，I'll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap．The first no-win situation is quarrel on unimportant things．Examples include the color of the teen's hair，the cleanness of the bedroom，the preferred style of clothing，the child's failure to eat a good breakfast before school，or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends．Second，blaming．The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong．Third，needing to be right．It doesn't matter what the topic is-politics，the laws of physics，or the proper way to break an egg-the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong，for both wish to be considered an authority-someone who actually knows something-and therefore to command respect．Unfortunately，as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other，they'll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress．

24．Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict？D
A．Both can continue for generations．
B．Neither can be put to an end．
C．Neither has any clear winner．
D．Both are about where to draw the line．
25．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean？B
A．The teens accuse their parents of misleading them．
B．The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict．
C．The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict．
D．The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents．
26．Parents and teens want to be right because they want toB．
A．give orders to the other          B．gain respect from the other
C．know more than the other        D．get the other to behave properly
27．What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows？D
A．Causes for the parent-teen conflicts
B．Examples of the parent-teen war
C．Future of the parent-teen relationship
D．Solutions for the parent-teen problems．

I was walking to school this morning while I saw the old woman with a walking stick lying on the ground．I quickly run over to help her up and asked her what was wrong for her．She told me she slipped and fell due to suddenly heart trouble．I was worried and decided to take him to a hospital．And then I went a department store near the hospital and contacted her family．Soon her son and daughter came to the hospital．They thanked me for my kind by writing me a thank-you letter．Although I was late for school today，but I felt very proud of that I had done．
3．More cycling，better public transport and car bans…Places all over the world are taking a range of measures to lower traffic pollution．
Paris
Paris bans cars in many historic central districts on weekends，places odd-even（单双日制的）bans on vehicles，makes public transport free during major pollution events and encourages car-sharing programs．A long section of the right bank of the river．Seine is now car-free and a monthly ban on cars has come into force along the Champs-Elysees．
The Netherlands
Politicians want to ban the sale of all petrol cars from 2025．allowing only electric of hydrogen vehicles．The new law will allow anyone who already owns a petrol car to continue using it．Most cities encourage bicycle use．
Freiburg
Freiburg in Germany has 500km of bike routes and a cheap and efficient public transport system．One town，Vauban，forbids people to park near homes and makes car-owners pay 18，000for a space on the edge of town．In return for living without a car，people are offered cheaper housing，free public transport，and plentiful bicycle spaces．
Curitiba
The southern Brazilian city of two million people has one of the biggest and lowest-cost bus systems in the world．Nearly 70% of its people go to work by public transport and the result is pollution-free air and traffic-free streets．
Copenhagen
Copenhagen prioritizes（优先考虑）bikes over cars and now has more cycles than people．The city calculates that one mile on a bike is worth﹩0.42 to society，while one mile in a car is a﹩0.2 loss．Large parts of the Danish capital have been closed to vehicles for decades．

10．The forces that make Japan one of the world's most earthquake-prone（有…倾向的）countries could become part of its long-term energy solution．
Water from deep below the ground at Japan's tens of thousands of hot springs could be used to produce electricity．Although Japanese high-tech companies are leaders in geothermal（地热的） technology and export it，its use is limited in the nation．
"Japan should no doubt make use of its resources of geothermal energy，"said Yoshiyasu Takefuji，a leading researcher of thermal-electric power production．
The disastrous earthquake and tsunami on March 11，2011 caused a reaction against atomic power，which previously made up 30 percent of Japan's energy needs，and increased interest in alternative energies，which account for only 8 percent．
Artist Yoko Ono has called on Japan to explore its natural energy，following the example of Iceland which uses renewable energy for more than 80percent of its needs．
For now，geothermal energy makes up less than 1percent of the energy needs in Japan，which has for decades relied heavily on fossil fuels and atomic power．
The biggest problem to geothermal energy is the high initial cost of the exploration and constructing the factories．Another problem is that Japan's potentially best sites are already being developed for tourism or are located within national parks where construction is forbidden．
"We can't even dig 10cm inside national parks．"said Shigeto Yamada of Fuji Electric，adding that regulations protecting nature would need to be relaxed for geothermal energy to grow．
Researcher Hideaki Matsui said，"Producing electricity using hot springs is a decades-long project．We also have to think about what to do for now as energy supplies will decrease in the short term．"
The Earth Policy Institute in Washington，the US，believed Japan could produce 80，000 megawatts（兆瓦）and meet more than half its electricity needs with geothermal technology．
Japanese giants such as Toshiba are already global leaders in geothermal technology，with a 70 percent market share．In 2015，Fuji Electric built the world's largest geothermal factory in New Zealand．

28．In the opinion of Shigeto Yamada，which of the following is important to achieve the growth of geothermal power in Japan？C
A．Financial support from the Japanese government．
B．Enough aid from local people．
C．A revolution of the policy．
D．Development of new high technology．
29．Geothermal energy is considered as a long term programme byB．
A．Yoshiyasu Takefuji
B．HideaJki Matsui
C．Shigeto Yamada
D．Yoko Ono
30．It can be learned from the last two paragraphs thatB．
A．the world's biggest geothermal plant was built by America
B．the potential of Japan's geothermal energy is great
C．it is hard to find geothermal energy in Japan
D．Japan will not export its geothermal technology
31．What would be the best title for the text？C
A．The world's largest geothermal plant
B．Japan takes the lead in geothermal technology
C．Japan thinks of geothermal energy
D．Alternative energies in Japan．
7．Read the following reviews for movies that are showing at the moment．And then answer questions．
Happiness （Romance）★★★★
Happiness tells the story or two people （Lisa Turbot and Danny Roy） who work for different advertising companies．They talk on the phone all the time and don't like each other．But then they correspond by e-mail and fall in love．This movie will be very popular with teenagers and people who like romances．It also has beautiful music．
