Valentine was killed for his Christian beliefs on February 14 more than 1,700 years ago, but the day that has his name is even earlier than that.‎ More than 2,000 years ago, the ancient Romans celebrated a holiday for lovers. As part of the ‎ celebration, girls wrote their names on pieces of paper and put them in a large container. Boys reached into the container and pulled one out. The girl whose name was written on the paper became his lover or sweetheart for a year. Today, lovers still put their names on pieces of paper and they send each other Valentine’s Day cards that tell of their love. Sometimes they also send gifts, like flowers or chocolate candy. Americans usually send these gifts and cards through the mail system. But some used another way to send this message. They have it printed in a newspaper. The cost is usually a few dollars. Some of the messages are simple and short, “Jane, I love you very much.” Others say more. This one, for example, “Roses are red. Violets are blue. I hope you love me as much as I love you. Forever, Mary.”‎ Most of the newspapers that print such messages are local, but USA Today is sold throughout the United States and 90 other countries as well. This means someone can send a Valentine message to a lover in a far-away city or town almost anywhere in the world. These messages cost 80 dollars and more. An employee of USA Today says readers can have a small heart or rose printed along with their messages this year. Will this kind of Valentine’s Day message reach the one you love? Well, just make sure he or she reads the newspaper.‎ ‎24.Which time period did Saint Valentine live in?‎ A. More than 1,700 years ago. B. More than 2,000 years ago.‎ C. More than 3,700 years ago. D. More than 300 years ago.‎ ‎25.According to Para. 2, which of the following is not part of celebration on Valentine’s Day?‎ A. Lovers put their names on pieces of paper.‎ B. Lovers send each other cards that tell of their love.‎ C. Lovers talk about their love stories on TV programs.‎ D. Lovers send gifts and cards through the mail system.‎ ‎26.What is the cost of printing a message in USA Today to show one’s love?‎ A. For free. B. A few dollars. C. Less than 80 dollars. D. 80 dollars and more.‎ ‎27.What is the purpose of the passage?‎ A. To introduce the origin of Valentine’s day and its modern style.‎ B. To advertise for the newspaper—USA Today.‎ C. To tell you that Americans are open to express their love.‎ D. To call on all the lovers to remember Saint Valentine forever.‎ C Last year, I lived in Chile for half a year. I lived with a Chilean family and had the responsibilities of any Chilean teenager. I had good days and bad days I didn’t understand.‎ Chuquicamata, my host community, is a mining camp. When I arrived there, I was scared. It was so different from what I was used to. There were lots of dogs on the streets, and there was no downtown, few smoothly paved streets, and little to do for entertainment. Rain was not seen very often, earthquakes and windstorms were frequent.‎ I had studied Spanish for two and a half years and was always one of the best students in my class. But in my first week in Chile I was only able to communicate and needed one person to whom I could explain my shock. I couldn’t speak the thoughts in my head and there were so many.‎ Most exchange students experience this like me. Culture shock presents itself in everything from increased aggression towards the people to lack of appetite (食欲). I was required to overcome all difficulties.‎ As time passed, everything changed. I began to forget the words in English and to dream in Spanish and love Chilean food. I got used to not depending on expensive things for fun. Fun in Chuquicamata was being with people. And I took math, physics, chemistry, biology, Spanish, art, and philosophy.‎ But the sacrifices were nothing compared to the gain. I learned how to accept and to succeed in another culture. I now have a deeper understanding of both myself and others.‎ ‎28.The author came to Chile last year with the purpose of ____.‎ A. paying a visit to Chile as a tourist B. experiencing Chilean life as a teacher C. studying Chilean culture as a college student D. studying knowledge as an exchange student ‎29.On arriving in Chile, why did the author feel frightened?‎ A. Because he did not know how to get along with the local people.‎ B. Because it was full of dangers like earthquakes and windstorms.‎ C. Because the living conditions were worse than what he was used to.‎ D. Because it was not convenient for him to shop there.‎ ‎30.In the first week in Chile, the author ______.‎ A. was not used to eating Chilean food B. had some friends to have a chat with C. couldn’t communicate with people D. couldn’t express his thoughts in English ‎31.What did the author most probably think of his life in Chile?‎ A. Wonderful and worthwhile. B. Difficult but meaningful.‎ C. Difficult and meaningless. D. Boring and disappointing.‎ D Through history, children have played with toys and they help to prepare children for adult life. But the toys are changing all the time. As science and technology have changed the way adults live, the toys children play with have changed as well. Development in science and technology has had a big effect on the toys that children play with. Today trains and mobile phones are popular toys for young children, but there were no toys of this kind before real trains and mobile phones were invented. The materials that toys are made of have also changed. Today lots of toys are made of plastic. Plastic is a modern, man-made material that did not exist in the past. On the other hand, some other toys that you have might not be all that different from the ones children played with 1,000 years ago. Scientists have found some bone dice（骰子）in Aberdeen. In medieval（中世纪的）times dice were used for playing games as much as they are today.‎ A recent survey found that half of all the children aged from 4 to 6 have played video games, a quarter of them regularly. The increasing use of electronic toys troubles Dr Singer, a professor at Yale. “One thing we know is that kids in early years need to be in touch with the real world,” he said, “no matter how brilliant they are, they’re not going to learn to walk, to move or to talk to others unless their hands or feet have a direct role in such activities.”‎ Some toy experts argue that the best toys are the ones that increase a child’s creativity and imagination. Traditional toys can be used for different kinds of purposes and be used in group settings, individually（单独地）, and one-to-one. They are also used differently depending on the ‎ child’s age and skill level. And these toys made of natural materials are valuable for children because they teach children what the world is made of.‎ ‎32.In how many ways do toys change according to the first paragraph?‎ A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.‎ ‎33.The author used the example of “dice” to show that ______.‎ A. the toys are changing all the time B. some toys are made of different materials C. some toys don’t change over time D. some toys’ materials don’t change over time ‎34.From the article, we can know that ______.‎ A. only children like to play with toys B. toys have nothing to do with children’s future life C. the development of toys is related to science and technology D. plastic is the best material for making toys ‎35.According to Dr Singer, ______.‎ A. the electronic toys are good for children if they play often enough B. the electronic toys prevent children keeping in touch with the real world C. children should play with electronic toys instead of the traditional ones D. children should be stopped from being hurt by the danger coming from the outside world 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。‎ Maybe you are an average student. 36.. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here's how.‎ Plan your time carefully.

First your time for eating,sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. 37..
