The sun heats up lakes, oceans, and other wet places on Earth. When the water gets warm enough, it changes into vapour. Plants also give off lots of water vapour. Some of this water vapour cools off high 第 8 页 共 8 页 in the sky and becomes clouds. Then it falls back to Earth in a new place as rain or snow. This cycle happens over and over again. The ground can absorb water like a sponge (海绵). If you could see this groundwater, it wouldn’t look like a lake or river. The groundwater is mixed in with the rocks and sand that lie in layers(层) below Earth’s surface. Groundwater moves along slowly. How slowly? Maybe 1.5 kilometres in one century. Some of this water has been underground for thousands of years. And once groundwater is pumped out of the ground from a deep well(井) by people, it may take hundreds of years for another water to take its place. 34.In which order does water go around Earth? a .Fall down as rain or snow. b.

C As a music teacher for twenty-seven years I have always known that music touches the soul. It can break through all kinds of barriers to reach students in a very special way. It can be the means for each child to find their light. A few years ago I was blessed with the opportunity to teach pre-school students one afternoon a week. One of my most memorable students was Vanessa. She was five years old, had difficulty walking and could not speak. We mostly sat on the floor for our music lessons and Vanessa liked to sit on my lap. One of her favorite songs was John the Rabbit. It was a call and response song where I sang the call and the students clapped two times while singing the repeating phrase “Oh yes!” Vanessa liked to put her hands together with mine and clap with me. We performed that song during every class Vanessa and I clapped together. She never said or sang a word. One day late in the school year when the song was finished Vanessa turned around, looked at me in the eye, clapped her tiny hands two times and said the words “Oh yes!” I opened my mouth and could not speak. Through music we had made a connection. Several years later I came across Vanessa on the street in town. I stopped my car and waved to say hello. She waved back with a big smile on her face and then clapped her hands two times mimicking 第 8 页 共 8 页 the song we had performed in our music class. This precious little girl through her connection with music left an impression on me that will last forever. Every child has the ability to learn and grow. It is up to us educators to discover the way to reach each and every one of our students. We all must find each child’s light. 38. The author thinks music__________. A. can make children calm down B. can connect heart to heart C. is difficult for pre-school students D. is a good means to find a job 39. According to the second paragraph Vanessa_________. A. got used to singing songs B. was too shy to speak C. was the youngest in the class D. enjoyed the author’s class 40. When Vanessa spoke the words “Oh yes!” the author felt________. A. surprised B. happy C. frightened D. satisfied 41. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. The author has been in touch with Vanessa for several years. B. Vanessa became as healthy as other children. C. The song made a deep impression on Vanessa. D. Being a good educator became Vanessa’s dream. D One thing that British and Chinese cultures share is a love for fine tea. Today, when we think of Western tea culture, we often think of the English and beautiful china tea cups. Afternoon tea People believe that an English lady, Anna, first introduced the idea of afternoon tea. In the 18th and 19th centuries, the English ate two main meals each day—breakfast and a heavy supper that would last for several hours in the evening. As a result, people often got very hungry during the long wait between these two meals. To solve this problem, Anna came up with the clever idea of inviting some friends to join her for an afternoon meal between four and five o’clock. This meal included cakes and sandwiches, and tea was served to wash down the food. In order to make this afternoon meal important, fine china cups and plates, and silver teapots, knives, forks and spoons were used. Soon afternoon tea parties became popular. Today, afternoon tea parties continue to play an important part in the social life in modern Britain. Will you come for coffee? Coffee also has an important role in British culture. People often use the words “Will you come for coffee?” to mean “Would you like to come to my home for a chat?” Usually several different drinks such as tea, hot chocolate or a soft drink like orange juice will be served as well as coffee, and you will be asked what you would like. However, you will not be offered wine at a “coffee” party. Coffeehouse and the London Stock Exchange In the 17th century London, coffeehouses were busy and noisy places. Businessmen and bankers went to coffeehouses to do their business, as well as to drink coffee. In fact the London Stock(股票)Exchange is believed to have started from these coffeehouses. 第 8 页 共 8 页 42. Anna introduced the idea of drinking afternoon tea because she _________. A. enjoyed chatting with her friends in the afternoon at home B. loved fine tea and beautiful china tea cups in the tea party C. wanted to share some nice food and some fine tea with her friends D. found people felt hungry during the long wait between the two meals 43. If someone says to you “Will you come for coffee?”, you _________. A. will be offered some coffee or some wine B. will be asked to have a chat with him or her C. are asked what you would like to drink or eat D. are invited to take part in an afternoon tea party 44. We can learn from the last paragraph that _________. A. a new business was started in coffeehouses B. businessmen went to coffeehouses just for coffee C. coffeehouses are still used by bankers in Britain D. people don’t go to coffeehouses because of the noise 45. The best title of the article is _________. A. Coffeehouses and Business B. British and Chinese Cultures C. English Tea and Coffee Culture D.

Generally speaking, it is often used to describe anything from creative imagination, including works of poetry, drama and fiction. Then why read literature, since it is often imaginary and seems unconnected with real life? A lot of us read literature for enjoyment and relaxation. It’s always pleasant to read some interesting books in our spare time. In a modern life full of stress, it is our common wish to read some 第 8 页 共 8 页 imaginary works and look for relaxation from the stress in life. Reading literature is more than fun; it also allows us to get knowledge. As a general rule, literature represents a language of a people, and it often gives us an insight(洞察力) into the traditions, attitudes and values of the age in which it was written. Sometimes literature can even offer us new, creative ways to have a better understanding of the world. It introduces us to new worlds of experiences. We enjoy the comedy and the tragedy of poems, stories and plays; and we may even grow through our literary journey with books. At last we may discover meaning in literature by looking at what the writer says and how he or she says it. In some ways, we explore the human condition and analyze(分析) the way they think and feel the way they feel. Literature helps us think clearly and encourages us to open our minds. So we can certainly say literature is of great importance to us. Why not get going with one poem, drama or fiction at once? Topic 56 should we read literature? Explanation It describes anything by using 57 . Types 58 , drama and fiction 59 to read literature ◇ To get enjoyment and relaxation to forget stress in 60 . ◇ To get 61 to make us learn about traditions, attitudes and values of the age in which it was written. ◇ To offer people ways to 62 better of the world, to 63 literary works, to grow through the literary journey, to discover meaning in literature, and even explore 64 humans think and feel. ◇ To help us think clearly and make us open our minds. Suggestion Literature is __65__for us.

In this room, anyone could paint a square. They gave everyone paints in bright, beautiful colors and asked the kids to paint something beautiful. As I looked around at all the squares, I saw the pictures were all bright, e__68___ one. The boy s_69____ next to me was painting a heart, but it was dark, empty, and lifeless. At first I thought maybe he took the only paint that was left and it just happened to be dark. But when I asked him about it, he said his heart was that color because his own heart felt dark. I asked him why and he told me he was very sick and his mother was very sick, too. He said his sickness was not going to get better and n__70_____ was his mother’s.
