But do you know who wrote the song and for whom it was written?     The retired professor, Archibald A. Hill in Lucasville, USA could tell us the story. Ninety-seven years ago, two of Mr. Archibald Hill’s aunts, Miss Patty Hill and Miss Mildred Hill were asked to write some songs for a book called “Song Storied for the Sunday Morning”. Miss Patty Hill and Miss Mildred Hill were both kindergarten ‎ teachers then. They loved children very much and wrote many beautiful songs for the book. One of them was the famous “Good Morning to You.” The song said, “Good morning to you, good morning to you, dear children, good morning to all.” This song was very popular at that time among kindergarten children. But not many grown-ups knew it. A few years later little Archibald was born. As his aunt, Miss Patty Hill sang the song “Happy Birthday” to the melody（曲调）of “Good Morning to you” to her little nephew（侄子）. She sang the song like this: Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday, dear Archie! Happy birthday to you!     Miss Patty Hill and her sister had never expected that this song would become so popular, but it really did. People all over the world like the song because of its simplicity in tune（曲调简单）and friendliness in words. 21. Professor Archibald A. Hill was Miss Mildred Hill’s __________.    A. son         B. student        C. brother     D. nephew 22. The song “Happy Birthday” has a history of __________ years.    A. 97          B. about 90     C. more than 90  D. less than 90       23. Why did Miss Hiss wrote songs?    A. Because they are musicians.    B. Because they love children.    C. Because they were asked to write for a book.    D. Because their nephew asked them to do so. 24. The sentence “it really did” means __________.    A. The song really became popular       B. Their wish would really come true    C. People all over the world like to listen to the song    D. Yes, but the song didn’t become popular B Why did the chicken cross the road? To get to the other side. Most people know this joke. But recently, some people have been much more worried about how the grizzly bear and mountain lion can cross the road. “Millions of animals die each year on U.S. roads,” the Federal Highway Administration reports. In fact, only about 80 ocelots, an endangered wild cat, exist in the U.S. today. The main reason? Roadkill.  “Eco-passages” may help animals cross the road without being hit by cars. They are ‎ paths both over and under roads. “These eco-passages can be extremely useful, so that wildlife can avoid road accidents,” said Jodi Hilty of the Wildlife Protection Society. But do animals actually use the eco-passages?  The answer is yes. Paul Beier of Northern Arizona University found foot marks left by mountain lions on an eco-passage that went under a highway.  This showed that the lions used the passage. Builders of eco-passages try to make them look like a natural part of an area by planting trees on and around them. Animals seem to be catching on. Animals as different as salamanders（火蜥蜴）and grizzly bears are using the bridges and underpasses. The next time you visit a park or drive through an area with a lot of wildlife, look around.  You might see an animal overpass! 25. From the story, we know an eco-passage is __________. A. an underground path for cars   B. a fence built for the safety of the area C. a bridge for animals to get over a river  D. a path for animals to cross the road 26. The writer asks visitors and drivers to look around when traveling because __________. A. wild animals may attack cars   B. they may see wild animals on eco-passages  C. they may see wild animals in the park D. wild animals may jam the road 27. The best title for the passage is __________. A. Special bridges help animals cross the road  B. Endangered animals increase because of roadkill C. Animals fail to cross the road            D. Take steps to protect animals in danger    C     I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt’s house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.     I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were ‎ leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving and never to come back was hardly in my head then. The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism（乐观）, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to “the hard times.”     My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers（移民局官员）, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives. From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles go away at last! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy. 28. How did the author get to know America? A. From radio programs          B. From books and pictures       C. From her mother              D. From her relatives 29. Upon leaving for America the author felt __________. A. excited       B. confused       C. worried         D. amazed 30. For the first two years in New York, the author __________. A. often lost her way        B. did not think about her future C. studied in three different schools     D. got on well with her stepfather 31. What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 4? A. She worked as a translator. B. She attended a lot of job interviews. C. She paid telephone bills for her family. D. She helped her family with her English.                                     ‎ ‎ D When did you last see a polar bear? On a trip to a zoo, perhaps? If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. These "Polar Bears" are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water. That day, the air temperature was 3℃, and the water temperature was a bit higher. The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island, New York are usually about the age of 60. Members must satisfy two requirements. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group. This is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February. 　　Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body's temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. Other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter. The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits (or advantages) of cold-water swimming. They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system（循环系统）because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming. 　　The main benefits (or advantages) of cold-water swimming are probably mental. The Polar Bears love to swim year-round; they find it fun and relaxing. As one 70-year-old woman says. "When I go into the water, I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away." 32. The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements except that  __________. A. they must reach the age of 60 B. they should be easy to make friends with C. they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold months D. they must agree to swim outdoors from November through February 33. According to the passage, some doctors believe it is true that __________. 　 A. you are healthy if cold-water swimming turns your skin color blue 　 B. cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in ‎ winter 　 C. cold-water swimming can make the body temperature dangerously high 　 D. Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water 34. The Polar Bears like to swim all the year round, for __________. 　 A. they can remain young       B. it is an easy way to keep the body warm in winter 　 C. they find it enjoyable and interesting  D. they might meet fewer troubles in life 35. The passage is mainly about __________. A. a group of cold-water swimming lovers     B. the polar bears' life   C. doctors' ideas about cold-water swimming    D. the requirements of the Polar Bear Club 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。选项中有两项是多余选项。 　　‎ ‎36 You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how: 　　‎ Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. 37 A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize hat is happening to your time. 　‎ Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may by a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or televisions. When you sit down to study concentrate on the subjects. 　　 ‎ Make good use of your time in class. 38 Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says. 　　‎ Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. ‎ ‎39 If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer. 　　 ‎ Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be over worried. 　　‎ ‎40 You will probably discover many others after you have tried these. 　　‎ A. There are other methods that might help you with your studying. 　　‎ B. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. 　　 ‎ C. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says. 　　‎ D. No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard. 　‎ ‎　 E. Maybe you are an average student. 　‎ F. Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class. 　　‎ G. This will help you understand the next class. ‎ ‎　三、 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给四个选项（A、B、C、D）中选出最佳选项，并写在答题卡上。  Sam’s uncle had an old bird which sat in its cage all day.
