Chinese people are among the mosthospitable people in the world. If foreigners visit a Chinese family, they would be surprised at the warmth that they would receive as guests.‎ When you visit a Chinese family, the host usually makes tea for you. Then he will serve you snacks(小吃) like biscuits or candy. Someone in the family will also chat with you, never letting you feel lonely.‎ At the same time, other family members will prepare a meal for you. Chinese people treat (款待) their guests with a big meal. They always present more food than the guest can eat. On the table, the guests must be the first to eat. Perhaps one of the things that surprises a western guest most ‎ is that the Chinese host likes to pick food for visitors, which won’t happen at western tables. The Chinese family go out of their way to make you feel at home. As you are done eating, the host usually says,”It seems that you didn’t eat much. Please have more.” Although you tell them you are full, they still put more food in your bowl.‎ Being warm and hospitable has long been an important part of Chinese culture and tradition. As Confucius (孔子) said thousands of years ago:‎ ‎ To meet friends from after ‎ How happy we are!‎ ‎46. What does the underline word “hospitable” mean in this passage.‎ A.好客的                                   B. 勤劳的                           C.朴实的 ‎47.

Because it won’t happen in western countries.‎ ‎49. What the Chinese family do for the guests is to_____.‎ ‎       A. make them feel at home ‎       B. show their wealth C. make them feel uncomfortable.‎ ‎50. What’s the meaning of the words by Confucius at the end of the passage?‎ ‎         A.学而时习之，不亦悦乎？‎ B．有朋自远方来，不亦乐乎？‎ C．人不知而不愠，不亦君子乎？‎ B 难度：★★‎ Li Ting,15,from Shanghai, was preparing a talk on some western festivals. She searched online for certain information and made PowerPoint presentations(展示).‎ Wu Qiong，her classmate, was doing his chemistry homework carefully. But he couldn’t work out the last problem even he tried his best. So he took out his mobile phone, opened a special app(应用软件)，and searched the problem. Answers soon appeared on the screen in several seconds.‎ Nowadays,many students do homework online with the help of the Internet like Li and Wu.They search information online, use apps or discuss through QQ and Wechat.‎ ‎“It’s convenient.You don’t have to wait for your teacher to explainit to you face to face.”According to Wu.” You can also learn by seeing how others work them out. What’s more, it improves students’ abilities. And it’s especially true for new kinds of homework. I am quite skilled at finding information online and using Microsoft Office.”‎ However, this trend（趋势） also causes problems. Some lazy students just copy the answers online without thinking. Even some ask their classmates to do homework for them. And their teachers don’t know the fact.‎ Anyhow, knowing how to use the Internet is important. The key is to have good self-control. When you come across(遇到) a difficult problem, think about it by yourself first. Be sure to understand the reasons behind the answers after you have turned to the Internet, or you won’t make progress. If you are not sure about your self-control, ask your parents for help.‎ ‎51.

Nobody is able to finish their homework now without the Internet.‎ ‎54. ____ is the key to using the Internet to study.‎ ‎       A. Self-respect               B. Self-control               C. Self-development ‎55. In this passage the writer wants to tell us that _____.‎ ‎       A. the Internet can be a good helper if we use it properly.‎ ‎       B. the Internet has made all the students lazy.‎ ‎       C. it’s not necessary to learn to use the Internet.‎ C 难度：★★‎ Have you ever heard of e-waste(electric waste,电子垃圾), which can be produced every day? How do you deal with your computers, MP4 players and mobile phones when they’re broken or you want a new one?‎ Most people just throw them away. With the development of electric industry, e-waste pollution has become a serious problem. According to the United Nations, in 2014, people around the world produced 41.8 million tons of e-waste and only recycled 6.5 million tons. The US was the biggest waster, producing 7.1 million tons. China came second, with 6 million tons.‎ It’s important to pay attention to e-waste. It can either be valuable or harmful（有害的）, depending on how we deal with it. E-waste is a valuable urban mine（城市矿藏）. The value of the metals, like gold and silver in the waste around the world, is amazing. And the metals can be reused. But if people throw them away, the toxic chemicals（有毒化学物质） can get into the earth or air, effecting the environment and people’s health.‎ Apple, for example, now recycle people’s used products in China when they are buying new ones. The company will test and repair the used ones and sell them at lower prices. To help reduce（减少）e-waste, we can also take computers and phones to see if companies offer recycling programs.‎ ‎56. The following can become e-waste EXCEPT_____.‎ ‎       A. computers                B. mobile phones              C. plastic bags ‎57. Which country produced most e-waste last year according to the United Nations?‎ A. America.                    B. China.                    C. Japan.‎ ‎58. What does the underline word “affecting” mean in this passage?‎ ‎       A. 保护                              B. 影响                              C. 改善 ‎59. From Paragraph 4, we learn that_____.‎ ‎       A. the recycle Apple products will be sold at higher prices.‎ ‎       B. buying longer lasting electronic products is a good way to reduce e-waste.‎ ‎       C. it’s better to keep the unwanted electronics in your bedroom.‎ ‎60. The main purpose of this passage is to_____.‎ ‎       A. prove that e-waste is useless.‎ ‎       B. encourage people to buy more electronic products.‎ ‎       C. advise people to deal with e-waste properly to reduce pollution.‎ 第三节 阅读表达 阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题。‎ 难度：★★‎ My father used to work in the city and seldom stayed at home. But he would come back help to harvest(收割) rice every year.‎ One autumn, he promised to help our neighbor, who lost his arms in a traffic accident in 1999, to harvest his rice. After Father harvested our town, his little rice picker broke. What’s worse, he had to return to work the next day because his partner was ill in hospital. It meant that Father wouldn’t be back in a few days. It now seemed impossible to help out the neighbor.‎ Father told us that be wouldn’t let the neighbor’s rice rot( 糜烂) in the field. He decided to harvest it by hand without a machine. “If tonight’s weather is clear, I think I can do it.” added my father. In fact, he was rather tired after a day’s harvest work.‎ After dinner, Father had a short rest and made his way to the field. A full moon was glowing (发光) in the sky and the weather was cold but clear. He spent the whole night keeping his word.‎ I would never forget the image(画面)：Father was cutting rice in the light of the harvest moon. Behind him, row after row of rice stocks(秸秆) stood at attention, showing respect for a man who kept his word.‎ ‎61. Did Father always stay with the family?‎ ‎62. What happened to the neighbor in 1999?‎ ‎63. Why was Father required to return to work?‎ ‎64. How did Father help the neighbor harvest rice in the field?‎ ‎65.

The words ‘thank you’ are very important and used very often. We say them when someone hands us a letter, passes us a book, offers us a drinks, or lends us an umbrella.‎ ‎‘Please’ is another important word, but many people forget to use it. It is not polite to ask someone for help without saying ‘please’. 69. We are supposed to use it when we ask for something, too. It may be a book, a pen, or more milk. It may be in the classroom, at home, or at the bus stop. We can use ‘please’ to make a request（请求）pleasant.‎ ‎70. 我们也应该学会说‘对不起’。If we have hurt someone’s feeling, we will have to say ‘sorry’. When we have told a lie and regret it, the same word should be used.

Sorry!’ – these words are simple but useful. Man said them long ago. We use them now.
