题目内容

【题目】The world has many beautiful sounds. We can hear the songs of birds and the laugh of people. We can listen to the cool music and news reports. And it’s all because of our ears! They bring us a world of sounds.

But some people can’t hear any sound at all. Some are born deaf. Others can hear well in their childhood, but too many loud sounds hurt their ears later on.

Many people in China can’t hear ordinary sounds clearly. A large number of them are children. Most of them are born with good hearing. But six children of every 1,000 have hearing problems when they are born. And if a child has hearing problems, he or she usually will also have some learning problems at school.

A lot of things can cause hearing problems. For example, too much earwax is not good for our hearing. And noise louder than 85 decibels (分贝) can hurt our ears and make us lose our hearing for a short time or even for ever.

Hearing is important for all of us. So we should do our best to give our ears special care. Don’t forget to do the following:

● Try to stay away from places with too much noise. If you have to go, wear earplugs. A pair of good earplugs can cut the noise by 30 decibels.

● When swimming, remember to put earplugs into your ears to stop water from getting in.

● Never put anything sharp into your ears. If you think you have too much earwax, ask your mum or dad to help you clean it out.

Keep these things in mind! Then you won’t be saying “WHAT? WHAT?” when you are older.

【题目】 Besides the spelling of the word, there are clearly many differences between American and British humor.

There is a common belief (信念) in the UK that Americans don’t understand irony (讽刺). This is of course not true. But what is true is that Americans don’t use it all the time. Irony may show up in American comedies, but people there don’t use it as much as the British do in daily life. However, irony is common in British culture. It actually runs in the blood of the British people. They use it as a way of playing with their friends and laughing at their enemies as well as themselves in everyday conversations. This may sometimes make people unhappy if the listeners are not used to it. They may also feel embarrassed.

Things are different in America. After American people use irony, they feel the need to make a joke clearer so that it will not make other people uncomfortable. Humor is tied so much to culture. American jokes are clearer and more forward. British jokes, on the other hand, are more subtle and usually with a hidden meaning. This may result from the fact that British culture is more reserved (矜持的)than American culture. However, we still find that certain American comedies have made huge success in Britain.

Therefore, although there are differences between both comic styles, there is still an appreciation (欣赏)and understanding of the other’s sense of humor.

1What do British people think of American humor?

A.They think irony isn’t popular in America.

B.They think American jokes are clearer.

C.They think it is tied to American culture.

D.They think Americans don’t understand irony.

2American people use ______ British people in daily life.

A.as much irony asB.less irony than

3When talking in everyday lifeBritish people use irony to ______.

A.laugh at themselvesB.fight with their enemies

B.British comedies have not made any success in America yet.

C.American and British people understand each other's sense of humor.

D.Americans don't use irony in their daily life because they don't understand it.

5The best title for the passage is_____ .

【题目】阅读下面短文,根据语境、音标或单词的提示,在每个空格内填入一个适当的单词,要求所填的词意义准确、拼写正确。

If you can only do one thing in the US, you should watch a Broadway show.

After 4 the three-hour show, we followed the actors backstage. I noticed the orchestra (管弦乐队) when we got there. They played the sounds of forest wind. The whole band was under the stage. They had to look at a TV to see 5 was happening on stage!

“That's Timon,” one of my 6 (friend) shouted. “How can you play such a small animal while you are so tall?”

“All the actors wear animal-shaped clothes. But because of Timon's small size, I have to wear a green one to7 [mt] the grass while holding the Timon puppet (木偶) in order to show how small he is,” the actor answered.

“Well done! You are a very good Timon!” I 8 (cry).

As we walked into the dressing room, we saw more than 1,000 sets of different clothes. “Because we have 9 (little) than 200 actors, we have to 10 [tend] our clothes many times during the show to play other animals,” the actor said.

Everyone must work very hard to make the show so touching and real. In the end, all of us left with respect for Broadway.
