13．My family had always been close and lucky．No one died and no one was sick．We were all living a happy life until my grandfather had cancer．No matter how much I told myself he might not die，somehow I still felt as if it was a death sentence．He fought so hard but died at 63．I honestly didn't know how I dealt with．I never cried alone．I had the support of my family and teachers．I just remembered my grandfather's wish that we should celebrate his life．
That's how we came up with the idea for Hives （蜂房） for Lives-a business my sister and I started where all the profits （赢利） go to the American Cancer Society （ACS）．During our first year we donated （捐赠） more than 2，000to the ACS．Then extyearam an who belonged to my grand parents'"beeclub"gave his honey tous，and our little business grew．We sold at wine festivals，schools，and to any one else who would buy!We had my unclesel lin Californiaand my grand mother sellin Chicago．We have sold honey in 13 states-evenin Puer to Rico!This year we donated more than 10，000 to the ACS and we're hoping to do more next year．Hope fully our business will help research into the causes of cancer or just improve the life of some one with cancer．
I feel like Hives for Lives is a way to honor my grandfather．Honor his love，his life，and his strength．With Hives for Lives reminding me of my grandfather every day，I feel as if I can move on in life，that he will always be alive in my heart and memories．It made me deal with his death，because I felt like I had truly honored his wish of celebrating his life．

4．Dear Highlights，
       My sister is always in a bad mood，which gets me in a bad mood．What should I do？
Tessa，Virginia
    It can be hard to be around someone who is in a bad mood．Since you can't change another person's mood，try to focus on what you can control：your own mood and reaction．
    You might find it easier to stay in a good mood if you leave your sister alone when she feels grumpy （脾气暴躁的）．The next time she is in a bad mood，go to a quiet place in your house．Read，exercise，draw，listen to music-do something that makes you feel happy．
    Your parents might have some good suggestions for you，too．
Dear Highlights，
    I play soccer，but sometimes I play badly．How can I do better？
Jarom，Utah
    To be good at anything，determination and practice are important．Listen closely to your coach，watch other players，then practice，practice，practice!Professional athletes continue to practice their sports each day，knowing that if they start to get lazy，they won't keep or develop their skills．
    In addition to practicing with teammates，you can work on drills on your own．
    Learning more about the sport may help too．Your coach can likely direct you to some good resources on skills development．
Dear Highlights，
    I was moved up a grade a few years ago．Now，almost everyone in my previous grade asks me why．It wouldn't be a problem，except some boys ask over and over just to be annoying．What do I do？
Allison （by e-mail）
    If you're sure that they are trying to be annoying，you might respond with something humorous．For example，you could say something like"They told me that the lunch lines would be shorter．"Use the situation to turn annoying questions into something to laugh about．
32．What should Tessa do when her sister gets bad-tempered？C
A．Accompany her．B．Change her mood．
C．Try some happy things．D．Leave her in a quiet place．
33．When talking about Jarom's problem，Highlights especially stresses the importance ofB．
A．determination        B．practice C．team spirit        D．the coach's help
34．What's Allison's problem？C
A．She cannot get along well with her classmates．
B．Some boys in her class annoy her on purpose．
C．She cannot stand being asked the same question．
D．Her friends cannot accept that she moved up a grade．
35．What can we learn from the answer to Allison's question？D
A．Laughter is the best medicine．B．He who laughs last laughs longest．
C．A sense of humor makes you easy-going．
D．Humor can ease the tension in many situations．

1．Narrow（狭窄的） streets easily cause many traffic accidents．

8．He pushed against that big stone with all hisstrength（strong）．

18．With global warming and melting ice，it isn't easy being a polar bear anymore．Some studies have predicted that polar bears could die out by the end of the century．The good news is not all researchers think the bears are absolutely disappearing．Scientists at the American Museum of Natural History（AMNH） have published a new paper indicating that things might not be as bad for polar bears as some scientists expect．
To understand the reason for the researchers'cautious optimism，we must first understand the factors that are threatening the polar bear's existence．Polar bears consume a diet of mainly young seals．In order to hunt these seals，polar bears need to rest at the top of sea ice---the same ice that is increasingly melting for most of the year thanks to climate change．In another 50years，experts expect that the Arctic will be too warm for sea ice to form for half of the year，leaving polar bears without a reliable food source and in serious danger of starvation．
As it turns out，alternative food sources for the polar bears aren't completely out of the question．For as long as biologists have tailed after the animals，they've seen polar bears eating animals found on land like caribou（驯鹿） and snow geese---as well as the snow geese's eggs．
Can polar bears actually survive off these alternative food sources for long periods of time？To figure this out，researchers calculated the nutrients that a caribou and snow geese diet would provide．They found that even adult male polar bears would be able to obtain more calories than they would burn in hunting these meals．Moreover，the food would provide the food necessary to avoid starvation during the summer months．
Unfortunately，not all polar bears have tended to seek food on land．That said，the researchers expect that necessity would push more polar bears to hunt on land to avoid starvation．They also expect that the bears could learn from their fellow bears how to hunt on land until the practice becomes second nature．

5．Silence is unnatural to man．He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness．In between he does all he can to make a noise in the world，and he fears silence more than anything else．Even his conversation is an attempt to prevent a fearful silence．If he is introduced to another person，and a number of pauses occur in the conversation，he regards himself as a failure，a worthless person，and is full of envy of the emptiest-headed chatterbox（喋喋不休唠叨的人）．He knows that ninety-nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly，but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure．
The aim of conversation is not，for the most part，to communicate ideas；it is to keep up the buzzing sound．There are，it must be admitted，different qualities of buzz；there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito．But at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a quiet person．Most buzzing，fortunately，is pleasant to the ear，and some of it is pleasant even to the mind．He would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbors．
Those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk．Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new．Some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people's ears，though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel．At the end of an evening during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time，they just prove themselves to be successful conversationists．
56．According to the author，people make conversation toD．
A．exchange ideas
B．prove their value
C．achieve success in life
D．overcome their fear of silence
57．By"the buzzing of a fly"（Para.1），the author meansC．
A．the noise of an insect
B．a low whispering sound
C．meaningless talks
D．the voice of a chatterbox
58．According to the passage，people usually talk to their neighborsB．
A．about whatever they have prepared
B．about whatever they want to
C．in the hope of learning something new
D．in the hope of getting on well．

2．It was now raining heavily．My husband was away．I did not want to ask anyone else to go with me．So I went to the hospital by（61）myself．I was taken to a small room．Lina lay（62）sleeping（sleep） quietly on a table．
This wasn't（63）thefirst time Lina had taken too many pills．I knew she would sleep deeply for about twelve hours（64）until/beforethe poison stopped doing its harm．
I sat down by Lina's side and watched her sleep．The room was still．I looked around．The room seemed familiar．"Have I been here before？"I wondered．I looked around again．"I'm sure I've been in this room，"I told myself．Then I remembered．It was in this very room （65）thatI gave birth（66）toLina seventeen years ago．（67）Howhappy I was then!
Lina used to be such a bright，（68）healthy（health） and nice child．"What has turned her into a dope-taker （吸毒者）？"I asked myself．"And why are millions of young people like her（69）taking（take） dope to destroy themselves？There must be something（70）seriously（serious） wrong with our society．What is it？"

16．Years ago there was a group of kids who would hang around at some local ponds（池塘） in the woods near their houses in Warwick，Rhode Island．In summer they caught frogs and fish．When winter arrived they couldn't wait to go skating．Time passed，and the ponds became the only open space for the kids to enjoy themselves in that neighborhood．
One day a thirteen-year-old boy from this group of kids read in the local newspaper that a developer wanted to fill in the ponds and build over a hundred small houses called apartments．So the boy went door to door and gathered more than two hundred signatures to stop the development．A group of citizens met and decided to support him．
At the meeting of the town planning organization，the boy was quite nervous at first and spoke very softly．But when he saw the faces of his friends and neighbors in the crowd and thought about what was happening to their favorite ponds，his voice grew louder．He told the town officials that they should speak for the citizens．He also insisted that they should leave enough space for children．A few days later，the developer stopped his plan．
Nine years later，when that teen was a senior in college，he was informed that the developer was back with his proposal to build apartments．Now twenty-two years old，he was studying wetlands ecology．He again appeared before the town planning organization．This time as an expert，he used environmental protection laws to explain restrictions on development in and around wetlands and the knowledge of wetlands ecology to help to improve the development．Finally some apartments were built，but less than half the number the developer wanted．The ponds where those kids used to hang around were protected by a piece of natural land，and are still there today．
1．The kids liked toC at the local ponds in winter．
A．make a snowman                  B．throw snowballs
C．go skating                      D．go skiing
2．The boy thought that the town officials should beA for the citizens．
A．responsible      B．modest       C．anxious         D．thankful
3．Which statement is true according to the passage？B
A．The apartments were built as the developer had planned．
B．The grown-up boy helped to protect the wetlands as an expert．
C．The developer stopped the boy's plan at the meeting years ago．
D．The ponds were filled in and some apartments were built on them．
4．The underlined word"restrictions"in the last paragraph probably meansD．
