Of course, this is not surprising. Without the nose, we could not breathe or smell. It is the part of the face that gives a person special character.‎ ‎ In English there are a number of phrases about the nose. For example, to hold up one’s nose expresses a basic human feeling -pride. People can hold up their noses at people, things and places.‎ The phrase, to be led around by the nose show man’s weakness. A person who is led around by the nose lets other people control him. On the other hand, a person who follows his nose lets his instinct (直觉、本能) guide him. ‎ For the human emotion of rejection, the phrase to have one’s nose put out of joint(接头) is very descriptive. The expression is not new. It was Used by Erasmus in 1542.‎ This is only a sampling of expressions in English dealing with the nose. There are a number of others. However, it should be as plain as the nose on your. face that the nose is more than an organ (器官) for breathing and smelling! ‎ ‎1. This passage is about ‎ A. the human nose, an organ for breathing and smelling ‎ B. the nose giving various expressions.‎ ‎ C. The nose is the part of the face ‎ D. The nose that gives a person his special character ‎2. Person who is led around by the nose ‎ ‎ A. lets his instinct guide him B. has no will of his won ‎ C. is strong-minded D. is full of imagination ‎3.

Women are luckier，only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman.‎ ‎ There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.‎ ‎ Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called "cones". These help us to see in a bright and tell difference between colors. There are also millions of "rods ", but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but no color. Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human being also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night, One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.‎ ‎4. This passage is mainly about ‎ ‎ A. color and its surprising effect B. women being luckier than men ‎ C. danger caused by color blindness D. color blindness ‎5. According to the passage, with the help of the "cones", we can ‎ ‎ A. tell different colours B. see in a weak light ‎ C. tell different shapes D. tell orange from yellow ‎6 Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?‎ ‎ A. Women are more careful.‎ ‎ B. There are fewer color-blind women.‎ ‎ C. Women are fonder of driving than men.‎ ‎ D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.‎ ‎7 We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a ‎ ‎ A. red light B. yellow light ‎ C. blue light D. green light C ‎ Many facts suggest that children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this ‎ ‎ Some people blame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy , fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown-ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants , then probably children would buy less take-away food.‎ ‎ There is another argument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begins early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives ‎ There is a third reason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise. They ‎ do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games. Not only is this an unhealthy pastime, it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.‎ The above are the main reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.‎ ‎ 8. According to the text , what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food ?‎ ‎ A Those who often take exercise B. Those who often watch television ‎ C Those who often have meals at home D. Those who often walk to school ‎ ‎ 9 The author thinks that children are becoming overweight because____ ‎ ‎ A. their parents often cook meals for them B.they are too busy to go out to play ‎ C. they can’t choose what to eat D.there are many fast food shops around ‎ 10. The word steering in the last sentence most probably means ________‎ ‎ A. forcing B. guiding C. driving D. moving ‎ ‎ 11 The main purpose of the text is to _______ ‎ ‎ A. tell a story B provide facts C. give advice D. compare opinions ‎ D Here is a poster- on a middle school web site. Read the web-site poster. Going, Going, Gone!‎ ‎ The Haynes Middle School Parent-teacher Organization ‎ Invites you to attend our latest fund (基金) -raiser ‎ The Fourth Annual (每年一次) Haynes School Auction(拍卖)‎ Saturday, May 10‎ ‎6:00 p.m.——11:00 p.m. in the school hall ‎6:00 p.m.——6:30 p.m.: All items for auction are previewed(预览).‎ ‎6:30 p.m.——7:00 p.m.: Silent auction begins.‎ ‎7:00p.m.——7:30p.m.: Highest bidders(出价人) from silent auction are determined.‎ ‎7:30——11:00 p.m.: Main auction begins.‎ Items up for bid in the silent auction list in value from $ 5.00 to $ 30.00‎ Items up for bid in the main auction include the following;‎ ‎ 1.
