The boy walked a long way, and finally came upon a beautiful castle where the wise man lived. Rather than finding a holy man, though, our hero, on entering the main room of the castle, saw a hive（喧闹场所） of activity: tradesmen came and went, people were chatting in the corners and a small orchestra was playing soft music. The wise man talked with everyone, and the boy had to wait for two hours before it was his turn. The wise man listened carefully to the boy’s explanation of why he had come, but told him that he didn’t have time just then to explain the secret of happiness. He suggested the boy look around the palace and return in two hours.“Meanwhile, I want to ask you to do something,” said the wise man, handing the boy a teaspoon that held two drops of oil. “As you wander around, carry this spoon with you without allowing the oil to spill”. The boy began to walk up and down stairs in the palace, keeping his eyes fixed on the spoon. After two hours, he returned. “Well,” asked the wise man, “Did you see the Persian tapestries (波斯织锦) hanging in my dining hall? Did you see the garden that it took the master gardener 10 years to create?” The boy was embarrassed, and replied that he had observed nothing. His only concern had been not to spill the oil. “Then go back and observe the wonderful things of my world,” said the wise man. Then the boy picked up the spoon and returned to his exploration of the palace, this time observing all of the works of art on the ceilings and the walls. He saw the gardens and the mountains all around him. When he returned, he described in detail everything he had seen. “But where are the drops of oil I gave to you?” asked the wise man. Looking down at the spoon he held, the boy saw that the oil was gone. “Well, there is only one piece of advice I can give you,” said the wise man. “The secret of happiness is to see all the wonders of the world and never to forget the drops of oil on the spoon.” 25. When the shopkeeper’s son arrived at the castle, he ______.‎ A．received warm welcome from the wise man B．didn’t expect to see so many people around C．was shown around the palace by the local people D．had already missed his chance to talk to the wise man ‎26. The wise man gave the boy two tasks in order to ______.‎ A．let the boy enjoy his palace and garden B．show him how to observe the wonderful things in the world C．make him learn from his mistakes D．teach him the secret of happiness ‎27. We can infer from the article that “the drops of oil on the spoon” probably refer to ______.‎ A．the beauty of nature B．the fortune a person owns C．the responsibilities of a person ‎ D．the great opportunities in life ‎28 . Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?‎ A．The wise man was satisfied with the way the boy performed the second task B．It took the wise man about 10 years to finish his garden.‎ C．The wise man wasn’t paying much attention to the boy at first.‎ D．The boy took no notice of the surroundings during his first task.‎ ‎ C If you are planning a visit to Chicago, make sure you see the city best before you head back home. Architecture Chicago is home to some of the most fascinating architecture in the country. One of the oldest buildings in the city is the Water Tower, which was built in 1869. It is one of the structures to survive the Chicago Fire in 1871. It is a fascinating building to see, and is nearby the Water Tower Place, which has great shopping. It’s a paradise（天堂） for the young. Another stop must be the Willes Tower, formerly known as the Sears Tower. Go to the top and walk out on the clear walkway to take a look straight down on the city. If you have the time, be sure to have dinner or a cocktail in the Signature Room on the 95th floor. Not only is the food great, but the views are breathtaking. ‎ Boat Tours If architecture is your thing, Wendella Boats offers a great architecture tour of Chicago. You can see some of the beautiful buildings from the Chicago River, which is a side of the buildings you don’t usually get to see. There are several other boat tours that are just great, too, and many will even take you from the river out to Lake Michigan where you can see the Chicago skyline at any time of day. These tours are great ways to gain knowledge of this spectacular（壮观的） city, and it’s also a funny way to rest your legs between walking trips. Famous Pizza You cannot come to Chicago without trying some famous, deep-dish pizza. There are many places to get this delicious, thick pizza, but three stores stand out from the rest. Gino’s East, Giordano’s, and Lou Malnati’s are the best places to get authentic, Chicago-style, deep-dish pizza. Try it with all the toppings or just cheese, but be sure you try it at some point. Many think that much pizza and cheese seems disgusting, but don’t knock it till you try it. You might find a new favorite way of eating this Italian classic. 29. Water Tower Place is so popular among young people most probably because of ______. ‎ A．its advantage of meeting his or her future partner B．its amusement services and shopping advantages C．there being many museums about art and literature D．its importance in working as an unusual water tower now ‎30. While making a boat tour, you can ______. ‎ A．see some beautiful buildings and even the Chicago skyline B．draw the newly built architecture along the river C．see how to gain knowledge in daily life D．measure the length and width of the Chicago River ‎31. Why does the author advise visitors to try pizza in Chicago?.‎ A．Because its cheese comes from Italy.‎ B．Because the Chicago-style is really impressive.‎ C．Because there are so many chain stores from Italy.‎ D．Because its style is completely the same as that in Italy.‎ ‎ D Earth is the third planet from the sun. It is one of the four inner planets. The other three inner ‎ planets are Mercury, Venus, and Mars. The inner planets are also called the rocky planets, because they are made of rocks. Earth is often called the “Water Planet”, because it is the only planet in our solar system which has liquid water on its surface. About 70% of the surface of Earth is covered by water! The other part of Earth is made up of continents and islands which have different landforms on them. Examples of landforms are mountains and plains. Plants and animals can live on Earth, because it has so much water. Earth spins very quickly compared to other planets. It only takes Earth 24 hours to spin around its axis(轴心) one time. One Earth day is 24 hours long! Earth orbits the sun in 365 days! This makes one Earth year 365 days long! Earth is the only planet in our solar system where humans, other animals, and plants can live. There is plenty of water to drink or to live in. Water is present on Earth in its big oceans and in the air! Clouds are made of water vapor（蒸汽）. The atmosphere has a lot of oxygen in it for animals to breathe, but the rest of our “air” is made up of water vapor, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and other gases. The air is perfect for plants to grow. Earth temperature is not the same in all places, but the temperature is just right for plants, animals, and humans in most places on Earth. Like the other inner planets, Earth has volcanoes. Volcanoes on Earth are different from those on other planets, because they still erupt. Scientists think that there may be active volcanoes on other planets and moons in our solar system, but they are still studying this. Earth has one planet which we call the Moon. The surface of the Moon has many craters（火山口） on it. These were caused when meteorites hit it. It has many volcanoes on it which do not erupt anymore. We can see the moon at night without using a telescope. It is the closest space object to our planet ,Earth. 32. Earth is called the Water Planet,______. A. because animals need water         B. the water makes it look blue from space C. it has liquid water on its surface      D. Earth is the third planet from the sun 33. It takes Earth ______to orbit the sun in one year. A.24 hours                   B.24 days                     C.365 days                   D.360 days 34. Life exists on Earth,______. A. because the water, air, and temperature are just right B. there is water vapor in clouds C. Earth is the planet closest to the sun D. earth has volcanoes 35.The craters on the moon were caused by______. A. meteorites hitting its surface              B. active volcanoes C. volcanoes which do not erupt anymore      D. some reasons that are not mentioned 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10 分） ‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ We often hear that children wish they were grown-ups, and that old people wish they were young. __36__ The happiest people enjoy what each age gives them without wasting their time in useless regrets. __37__ A child is fed, looked after and loved by all grown-ups like parents or grandparents.‎ ‎ __38__ However, for older people they often lose their interest in those things.
