Cutting down our own Christmas tree had been a family tradition.‎ As we walked through the rows of trees, my youngest daughter Kimberly shouted excitedly, “There it is, the perfect tree!” The other two agreed. My husband and I looked at each puzzled (困惑的). It was misshapen and pine needles(松针) were missing here and there.‎ We tried to talk our daughters into changing their minds, but failed. We had to tie the tree to the top of our car and headed home. As we reached our house, Heather ‎ jumped out first. Suddenly she shouted, “The tree isn’t there!” We thought she was kidding. However, it wasn’t there.‎ The girls were so sad. “We ll get another tree tomorrow, “ I said, secretly hoping the new tree would be prettier. But the girls gave us the look that no parent can say no to. We had no choice but to go back and find that tree.‎ ‎ About five minutes into our drive, we saw our tree on the side of the road. Clearly it had been run over by a truck and a big part of it had fallen off, but we took our little broken tree home anyway.‎ Once at home, we all agreed that the flat broken side would go up against the wall. That night, as we decorated our tree, something magical happened. By the time we were done, I had to admit (承认), it didn’t look sad after all. “This is the best tree we ever had. It s perfect!” my second daughter Samantha said excitedly. My husband and I couldn’t have agreed more!‎ Now we always recall that little broken tree!

Following a family tradition C Until he was about 20 years old, Benjamin Banneker had never seen a watch or clock. Born in1731 in Maryland, USA, he worked as a farmer and lived by sunrise and sunset. He didn’t need to know the exact time.One day, he saw a watch and was fascinated with it. Today, no one knows whose watch it was, but he borrowed it and studied how it worked.‎ Then, he built a wooden clock- America’s first clock! Not only did it tell the time, but its bell rang every hour. People traveled miles to see Benjamin’ s clock. The clock continued to work until Benjamin’ s death in 1806.‎ Benjamin was educated at a time when few people knew how to read or write. And at the age of 22, he built a working clock without having a lesson or book on the subject. How could he do that? That was because of his love of math.‎ From the time he was a boy, Benjamin loved to learn, and he especially loved math. His grandmother taught him to read and write using the only book she had, the Bible. He went to school in the winters. Years later, his lifelong friend Jacob Hall recalled that Benjamin often stayed in the schoolhouse and lost himself in books while other students played outdoors.‎ ‎ Benjamin worked on his family’s farm and studied when his work was done. He became known as a man of learning. He made calculations(计算) and wrote letters for his neighbors who could not do these things.‎ 14. Benjamin first saw a watch .‎ A. in 1731. B. in class.

It was similar to the watch he had borrowed.‎ 14. Benjamin often helped his neighbors .‎ A. do farm work.‎ B. write letters.‎ C. learn to read. ‎ D. fix watches.‎ 15. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. He invented America s first clock.‎ B. A wooden clock made history.‎ C. Secrets of an amazing clock.‎ D. The history of clocks.‎ D Coffee is an important part of Italian culture and since arriving here over six months ago, I have drunk a lot of it!‎ Of course, coffee is also very popular in the UK but coffee culture in Italy is completely different. In Italy, when you order a coffee in a cafe or bar(酒吧), you are served with a tiny, bitter espresso. This is “normal (正常的) coffee” for Italians and they are not so interested in the huge coffees that we drink in the UK. If you want more than one sip(小口) of coffee in Italy, lungo is a good choice. In addition, while takeaway coffee is quite popular among Brits, it is not very common at all in Italy. Generally, Italians prefer to drink their tiny coffees while standing at the bar and, for many, this short break is an important part of their day.‎ Usually, breakfast in a bar in Italy -includes a coffee and a pastry (酥皮糕点). Cappuccinos are very popular at breakfast time and, for me, a creamy cappuccino and a pastry with chocolate is the perfect way to start the day.‎ Finally, I have found that coffee in Italy, such as espresso or macchiato (an espresso with a drop of milk), is so much cheaper than coffee in the UK. They are small, of course, but this means that in Italy it is possible to go out for coffee every day without breaking the bank. ‎ 14. How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed?‎ A. By time. B. By space. C. By example. D. By comparison 15. Which coffee will you get in Italy if you order one without special instructions?‎ A. Espresso. B. Lungo. C. Cappuccino. D. Macchiato.‎ 16. What can we learn about the coffee culture in Italy?‎ A. Takeaway coffee is very popular among Italians.‎ B. Italians are very often seen drinking huge coffees.‎ C. Few Italians take short breaks from work for coffee.‎ D. Coffees are often served along with pastries during breakfasts.‎ 17. What does the author think of Italian coffee?‎ A. She loves its bitter taste.‎ B. It is too expensive for her.‎ C. It is a good choice for breakfast.‎ D. The cup it is served in is too small.‎ 三、七选五（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Keeping the memory（记忆力) in shape is important at any age.
