17.My dad was never the kind to offer many words of love or encouragement. But we knew he loved us…h(huán)e just had his own way of showing it.
When I was a teen,we were seasonal campers at a family campground almost an hour outside the city where we lived. Each family had their own campsite with water and electric,and you basically parked your camper there from May through October. Most"Seasonals"visited them every weekend during those months,with the occasional weeklong stay. There were plenty of other kids who camped seasonally each weekend,and they came to be some of my closest friends. Of course,many of them were boys.
We kids paired up with our little boyfriends or girlfriends,and we'd hold hands as we'd walk around the campground. We'd play ping-pong,have some snacks,and play songs. Most weekends were pretty similar,but the couples would change. You'd see so-and-so with a different so-and-so than they were with the weekend before. You know how it is when you're a teen-a three-week relationship is a really long time.
So,needless to say,my teen years were spent with quite a few different boys. But every single one of them had something in common…they'd all received The Evil Eye.
The Evil Eye was a magical sort of thing. One simple look from my dad,and the boy immediately knew not to mess with me. It was as if he could send his warnings through invisible laser(激光)beams that shot directly from his eyes to the boys'brains.
"You will not put your hands on my daughter…You will not kiss my daughter…You will not even whisper sweet nothings into my daughter's ear."
I remember one night in particular,walking with a boy around the campground after dark. We came from one direction,and my dad from the other. The boy and my dad locked eyes for a brief second,then the boy dropped my hand like a hot potato and turned away,giving me a quick,"See ya later."
Yes,the Evil Eye. Best way ever to keep wandering teen boy hands away from your daughters.

60. The Evil Eye in the passage implies thatD.
A. Dad gets angry easily 
B. Dad's eyes are like evil's
C. Dad's eyes are ugly-looking 
D. Dad's eyes are protective to his daughter
61. The underlined words"mess with"in paragraph 5most probably meansA.
A. cause trouble   B. make untidy
C. get married to  D. talk to
62. Which of the following is true according to the passage?B
A. As teenagers,we went camping every weekend.
B. We made lots of friends during the seasonal camping.
C. We had regular boyfriends or girlfriends and enjoyed ourselves.
D. The boy dropped my hand and turned away because he loved The Evil Eye.
63. It can be inferred from the passage that the authorC.
A. is a teenage girl who loves her father
B. is a teenage boy who hates his father
C. is now an adult who has come to understand her father's love
D. used to be a naughty boy who changed girlfriends now and then.

20.Across Britain,burnt toast will be served to mothers in bed this morning as older sons and daughters rush to deliver their supermarket bunches of flowers.But,according to a new study,we should be placing a higher value on motherhood all year.
  Mothers have long known that their home workload was just as heavy as paid work.Now,the new study has shown that if they were paid for their parental labors,they would earn as much as£172,000 a year.
  The study looked at the range of jobs mothers do,as well as the hours they are working,to determine the figure.This would make their yearly income£30,000 more than the Prime Minister earns.
  By analyzing the numbers,it found the average mother works 119 hours a week,40 of which would usually be paid at a standard rate and 79 hours as overtime.After questioning 1,000 mothers with children under 18,it found that,on most days,mums started their routine work at 7 am and finished at around 11 pm.
  To calculate just how much mothers would earn from that labour,it suggested some of the roles that mums could take on,including housekeeper,part-time lawyer,personal trainer and entertainer.Being a part-time lawyer,at£48,98 an hour,would prove to be the most profitable of the"mum jobs",with psychologist a close second.
  The study shows mothers matter all year long and not just on Mother's Day.The emotional,physical and mental energy mothers devote to their children can be never-ending,but children are also sources of great joy and happiness.Investing(投入) in time for parenting and raising relationsh ips is money well spent.
21.How much would a mother earn a year if working as the Prime Minister?D
A.£30,000.
B.£202,000.
C.£172,000.
D.£142,000.
22.What is stressed in the last paragraph?D
A.mothers'importance shows in family all year long.
B.Investing time in parenting would bring a financial return.
C.Mothers'devotion to children can hardly be calculated.
D.The sacrifices mothers make are huge but worthwhile.
23.What can we conclude from the study?B
A.Mothers'working hours should be largely reduced.
B.Mothers'labor is of a higher value than it is realized.
C.Mothers should balance their time for work and rest.
D.Mothers should be freed from housework for social life.

5.Tea,the second most popular drink throughout the world and the national drink of China,is now receiving ever-growing threats from canned beverage,bottled water and instant powdered coffee or other sorts of soft drinks.Due to high-pressure competition and heavy load of work,people nowadays tend to favor drinks which are more easily processed and readily available.However,from my perspective,I believe that tea will maintain its popularity over other modern drinks.
Admittedly,beverages like cocktail or lemonade invitingly satisfy our taste buds with their exotic flavors; carbonated drinks like Cola or Sprite instantly cool us down especially when served with ice; coffee drinks like mocha or latte smoothly keep us refreshed and help us unwind.However,the tempting and lasting flavors of those drinks may be produced with many additives and preservatives.
Tea,with more choices of different tastes or kinds,offers us joy and relaxation and of course is richer in culture and healthier.Black tea or oolong tea,jasmine tea or chrysanthemum tea,whichever can find one who enjoys it and appreciates the culture involved.
It's wonderful to have a cup of my favorite tea served in exquisite tea cups on a sunny afternoon while reading through novels or just day dreaming.The warm flow of tea mixed with the fragrance (香味) of herbs and flowers often quickly relieves the pressure and calms me down.
The concept of tea drinking is strongly rooted in us Chinese as an integral part of daily routine,especially for the elder generations.Every time we step into a Chinese restaurant,a teapot is a must on the table and we will be graciously received with the greetings like:"Which kind of tea would you prefer?"
Tea is a healthy choice.It has unique medical and nutritional values,either relieving people's physical pain and mental stress or assisting clinical treatment of certain types of diseases or even cancer.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

81.Why do people prefer to drink other sorts of soft drinks rather than Chinese tea?Because high-pressure competition/heavy load of work makes people like easily processed drinks./readily available drinks.
82.A lot of drinks such as Coffee,Cola,Sprite often attract us fortheir tempting and lasting flavors and keep us refreshed./help us unwind.
83.The author has his own way to relieve his pressure,drinking the warm flow of tea mixed with the fragrance..
84.What effective function does tea possess?It possesses unique medical and nutritional values..

12.Some of the most popular programmes on British television,all with their regular millions of loyal viewers,are‘soaps'such as Coronation Street,Eastenders and Emmerdale.(A‘soap'is an informal word for a‘soap opera',which is a television story,in daily or weekly episodes (連續(xù)劇集),about the daily lives of the characters in it.)
In every soap there is comedy and tragedy,and storylines of all kinds.In every soap there is the inevitable gossip,and there is the essential character who brings misfortune on himself-or herself,the spiteful woman who hates the success of her sister in marrying a man with money and whose childish behavior splits the family.
To some degree,of course,the regular episodes provide many people with an adult kind of comic,rather like Dickens'serialized novels did.At times,the actions and characters in them seem quite realistic; at other times,they go to the other extreme and show actions that look as if they are straight from the pen of the best fiction writers.But perhaps the fall into clearly fictional comedy or tragedy is necessary to remind regular viewers that their daily amount of‘soap'is no more and no less than a shot of fiction,and that the characters are not real.
Certainly life is never dull in a soap.If one of the adolescents buys a motorbike and a young child lives round the corner,you can bet the two will meet in an accident.If two people fall in love and get married,you can be sure that a friend will cast an insult on the character of one of them,enough to break up the marriage.After all,this is not life; this is a soap!Reality makes way for fiction.The viewers who think that they are watching even a reflection of reality only bring disappointment to themselves.But there are still viewers who follow the comings and goings of the characters on screen with unreasoning faith,believing that the events are real when characters are injured or ill,or even die,and send cards or flowers with best wishes,congratulations or sympathies.
What many of us find difficult to understand is just why soaps have become so popular?
 
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)
78.Coronation Street,Eastenders and Emmerdale are popular British soaps whichhave millions of regular loyal viewers.
79.What are the two necessary elements of a soap opera?The inevitable gossip and the essential character
80.The regular viewers need to be reminded that the soap operas areonly (a shot of) fiction and not real.
81.What do some TV viewers do when they are mad about the soaps?They follow the characters on screen unreasoningly/with faith..

6.In 1826,a Frenchman named Niepce needed pictures for his business.But he was not a good artist.So he invented a very simple camera.He put it in a window of his house and took a picture of his garden.That was the first photo.
The next important date in the history of photography(攝影術) was in 1837.That year,Daguere,another Frenchman,took a picture of his reading room.He used a new kind of camera in a different way.In his picture you could see everything very clearly,even the smallest thing.This kind of photo was called a Daguerreotype.

Photographers also became one kind of art by the end of the 19th century.Some photos were not just copies of the real world.They showed people's feelings,like other kinds of art.

Boys and girls!I'd like to share my swimming experience with you.My swimming experience is extreme interesting.There was a time when I swim like a rock.This went on till one day when I was fishing with a friend of mine at the pond.I slipped into it.Had my friend not come to my rescue,I would have drowned.Since then,I had come to know the important of learning to swim.I didn't attend at any training class but learned it all by myself.Strange to say,I have  no difficult swimming at all now.Though the way I swim looks awkward (笨拙的),at least it can keep me floating.Think of this,I feel quite satisfying.
Yours,
Zhang Ming.
