I want to show my teacher. ” The summer holiday is one of the main topics of conversation at the beginning of each school year. Friends and teachers want to know all about the fun. What better way to recount the experience than show them with a travel journal? Travel journals are as individual as your child, but with the following tips, you can make one too.‎ Start with the book A good journal is big enough to allow room for drawings, writing, photos, and souvenirs. If it’s too small, nothing will fit. My family finds artist sketchbooks to be the best because the paper is heavier and a good quality to draw on. They also hold up well when souvenirs such as postcards or ticket stubs are pasted in.‎ Educational additions Load a simple map of your route and paste it in the book. If you’re traveling through several states or provinces, create a section in the book for each leg of your journey. Use a brightly colored marker to plot your route and stickers to show important points along the way. You may also wish to include coloring pages of state flags and animals, along with interesting trivia about your family travel destination.‎ A picture says a thousand words You may be surprised how judicial(公正) kids become when given a disposable camera and permission to take photos of whatever is important to them. Develop the photos ‎ en route, and you have an instant quiet time activity. Avoid disappointment; take a back up photo on you camera as well. ‎ With a travel journal, the question, “What did you do this summer? ”takes on a whole new meaning. A drawing here, a quote there, and a few pictures quickly add up to a wonderful book full of memories that can be shared with friends and family for many years to come. After all, isn’t that what family vacations are for?‎ ‎21. The first paragraph serves as _________.‎ ‎ A. a description B. a suggestion ‎ C. an introduction D. a summary ‎22. Why does the author’s family like artist sketchbooks the best?‎ A. They hold many drawings. B. They are heavy and large enough.‎ C. They can be kept as good souvenirs. D. Their paper is suitable for drawing.‎ ‎23. What does the passage mainly tell us?‎ ‎ A. How to make a travel journal. B. Making a summer holiday fun.‎ ‎ C. Advantages of keeping a travel journal. D. The real meaning of a family vacation.‎ B Up until about 3 years ago, I never really questioned my identity but now I am far more aware of it.‎ Sometimes I’ll say really crazy things like “I wonder what I’d look like with pale yellow hair”, and my father only smiles. I guess growing up with Western parents and living in a fairly Western society have made me feel rather “Western”. However, my mother thought that it was still important for me to stay connected to my “roots”.‎ Our family would go on various trips to China, sightseeing and learning more about the culture. I would attend Saturday Chinese (language) school and whenever my school had a culture or an international day, my mother would encourage me to dress up in Chinese dress or bring Chinese food. The key word: encouraged. Not forced.‎ Understanding my native culture and tradition and knowing other children just like me were obviously important ideas my mother valued when it came to bringing up her two Chinese daughters. I have never really had any identity issues; however, I ‎ find that now I have become less interested in maintaining a strong link to my Chinese tradition. This is because I started traveling and seeing more of the world, and grew up in a very Western lifestyle.‎ What do I mean by this? I have started to become more aware of their customs. But do not think I did not appreciated the opportunity I had to learn about my culture; I will never truly stop being Chinese, but as I grow older, I want to declare myself a full-and-through Australian.‎ I am on a Chinese Adoption Facebook group and I decide to ask for some ideas on how they feel about being open to learning their native culture.‎ ‎24. According to the text, the writer’s roots are in _________.‎ ‎ A. China B. Australia C. America D. France ‎25. The writer stays connected to China by the following ways EXCEPT _______.‎ ‎ A. traveling to China ‎ B. cooking Chinese food ‎ ‎ C. attending Chinese language school ‎ D. learning Chinese culture ‎26. What can we infer about the writer and her family?‎ ‎ A. The writer is a nice girl with beautiful golden hair.‎ ‎ B. The writer wants to be strongly connected with Chinese tradition.‎ ‎ C. The writer prefers the Western lifestyle to the Chinese one.‎ ‎ D. The writer’s present parents both come from Australia.‎ ‎27. What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?‎ ‎ A. The experience the writer’s family had while traveling in China.‎ ‎ B. The writer’s feeling about her special identity.‎ ‎ C. The effect the Western lifestyle has on the writer.‎ ‎ D. Others’ responses the writer received to her question.‎ C ‎ Common-cold Sense You can’t beat it, but you don’t have to join it. Maybe it got the name “common cold” because it’s more common in winter. The fact is, though, being cold doesn’t have anything to do with getting one. Colds are caused by the spread of rhinoviruses(鼻病毒), and, at least so far, medical science is better at telling you how to avoid getting one than how to get rid of one.‎ Children are the most common way cold viruses are spread to adults, because they have more colds than adults—an average of about eight per year. Why do kids seem so much more easily to get colds than their parents? Simple. They haven’t had the opportunity to become immune to many cold viruses.‎ There are more than 150 different cold viruses, and you never have the same one twice. Being infected by one makes you immune(免疫的)to it –but only it.‎ Colds are usually spread by direct contact, not sneezing or coughing. From another person’s hand to your hand and then to your nose or eyes is the most common route. The highest concentration of cold viruses anywhere is found under the thumbnails(拇指甲)of a boy, although the viruses can survive for hours on skin or other smooth surfaces.‎ Hygiene is your best defense. Wash your hands frequently, preferably with a disinfectant(消毒剂) soap, especially when children in your household have colds.‎ But even careful hygiene won’t ward off every cold. So, what works when a coughing, sneezing, runny nose strikes?‎ The old prescription(处方)of two aspirins, lots of water, and bed rest is a good place to start. But you’ll also find some of the folk remedies worth trying. Hot mixtures of sugar (or honey), lemon, and water have real benefits.‎ ‎28. According to the essay, you may have a cold because ____________.‎ A. the weather is too cold B. another person’s coughing passes the cold to you C. the spread of rhinoviruses gets people infected ‎ D. you wash your hands too often ‎29. Children have more colds because _________.‎ A. they are not immune to many cold viruses yet B. they are usually infected about eight times each year B. they never wash their hands so that their thumbnails are dirty C. they don’t like eating lemon ‎30. When you are having a cold, ___________.‎ A. it is always the same kind of cold that you had last time B. it is certainly not the same kind of cold that you had last time ‎ C. it may be the same kind of cold that you had last time D. it is probably not the same kind of cold that you had last time ‎31. When one is having a cold, he may often have all the following symptoms EXCEPT ________.‎ A. coughing B. having a sore throat C. having a stomachache D. having a runny nose D There is an old Chinese proverb that states “One generation plants the trees; another gets the shade”, and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters. The relationship between a mother and daughter is sometimes confusing. If close, the relationship can be similar to friendship. However, the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that distinguish it from a friendship. These characteristics include the hierarchy(等级) and unconditional love, which preclude mothers and daughters from being best friends.‎ Marina‎, 27 years old, says, “I love spending time with my mom, but I wouldn’t consider her my best friend. Best friends don’t pay for your wedding. Best friends don’t remind you how they carried you in their body and gave you life! Best friend don’t tell you how wise they are because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you.” This doesn’t mean that the mother and daughter relationship can’t be very close and satisfying.‎ While some adult relationships are still troubled, many find them to be extremely rewarding. This generation of mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common which increases the likelihood of shared companionship. Mothers and daughters have always shared the common experience of being homemakers, responsible for maintaining and passing on family values and traditions. Today contemporary mothers and daughters ‎ also share the experience of the workforce and technology, which may bring them even closer together.‎ Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends, but for better or worse, the mother and daughter relationship is permanent, even if they aren’t speaking for some unfortunate reason. The mother and child relationship is still closer than any other. There is not an equal relationship. Daughters should not feel responsible for their mother’s emotional well-being. It isn’t that they don’t care deeply about their mothers. It’s just that they shouldn’t be burdened with their mother’s well-being.‎ The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable by any other. Mothers never stop being mothers, which includes frequently wanting to protect their daughters and often feeling responsible for their happiness. Mother always “trumps” friends.‎ ‎32. The underlined word “preclude” in Paragraph 1 probably mean “___________”.‎ A. prevent B. differ C. benefit D. change ‎33. What do we know from the passage?‎ A. The mother and daughter relationship can be replaced by a best friend.‎ B. A mother’s love brings her and her daughter a close friendship.‎ C. Marina has a troubled relationship with her mother.‎ D. The mother and daughter relationship goes beyond best friends’ friendship. ‎ ‎34. The author proves his statements mainly by __________.‎ A. listing data B. giving explanations ‎ C. quoting sayings D. making examples ‎35. What is the best title for the passage?‎ A. How to be a good mother and daughter B. Can a mother be a daughter’s best friend?‎ C. A friend in need is a friend indeed D. Who is a mother’s best friend?‎ 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。‎ Time is the most valuable thing that mankind has. __36__ Many people try to manage their time. They arrange information and tips in order to effectively do so.‎ ‎__37__ Time can be managed easily by finding out what is important and arranging these things in the order of importance.
