Later on, jeans became popular all over the world.‎ When you see colorful fireworks, you probably don't think about the Chinese cook who invented ‎ them in old times by accident. He mixed together some common things from the kitchen. The m 89 burnt and made a beautiful tight. ‎ The invention of the Band-Aid (创可贴) was also a surprise. About 90 years ago, Earle Dickson worked at Johnson & Johnson. His wife was always accidentally cutting her fingers in the kitchen, but she couldn't bandage (包扎) herself up. Dickson decided to make something to help his wife cover her cuts. So he used a piece of gauze (纱布) and put it on some tape (胶布). Later, his boss made this into a popular product: the Band-Aid.‎ Nowadays, microwave ovens are popular around the world. But in the b 90 , people invented the microwave for the war. American Percy Spencer found that microwaves could cook. He saw a candy in his pocket getting soft when he worked b 91 the microwaves.

Pollution comes in many ways. We see it, smell it, taste it and drink it. Pollution is beginning to threaten （威胁) our health ,or happiness and our life.‎ ‎ Man, has been polluting the earth from the time he first made fire, washed his clothes in the river and threw his waste on the g 87 . When land was used up or water became dirty, men moved to another place. At the beginning the problem was not so s 88 because there was plenty of clean air, land and water. There weren't so many people then and their needs were fewer. All the dirty things could be taken in by nature and soon covered over (恢复). But this is no longer true. The increase of population and the d 89 of modern industry have changed that. Man is slowly polluting his environment. By putting dirty water and chemicals into rivers and lakes, we have polluted our drinking water and k 90 the fish.‎ Our increasing population is part of the problem. More people, more waste. ‎ Where is this all to e 91 ? Are we turning the world into a big rubbish dump, or is there any hope that we can get rid of the pollution?

Mark s 86 and helped the boy pick up these things. Since they were going the same way, he helped to carry some of his things. As they walked, Mark knew that the boy's.name was Bill, that he loved video games, baseball and history, that he was having a lot of t 87 with his other ‎ subjects and that he had just broken up with his girlfriend.‎ They arrived at Bill's home first and Mark was invited in for a Coke and to watch some television. The afternoon passed h 88 with a few laughs and some small talks, then Mark went home. They continued to see each other around school, had lunch together once or twice, and then they b 89 finished middle school. They ended up in the same high school where they sometimes saw and talked with each other over the years. At last just three weeks, before they finished high school, Bill asked Mark if they could talk.‎ Bill reminded (提醒) him of the day years ago when they had f 90 met. "Did you ever think why I was carrying so many things home that day?" asked Bill. "You see, I cleaned out my locker b 91 I didn't want to leave anything for anyone else. I had stored some of my mother's sleeping pills (药丸) and I was going home to kill myself. But after we spent some time together talking and laughing, I began to understand that if I killed myself, I would have missed that time and so many others that might follow. So you see, Mark, when you picked up those books that day, you did a lot m 92.

Reading Comprehension (阅读理解)：(共50分)‎ A) Choose the best answer (根据文章内容，选择最恰当的答案)：(12分)‎ ‎ How many days of school do you have? Do you want to have a longer school vacation? Read the two letters from people in the town of Waterville to their local newspaper. The chart（图表）on the right shows the average number of school days in some countries. ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ Letter A To the Editor: ‎ ‎ Why do our children have 11 weeks of summer vacation? Many years ago, 85 percent of Americans worked on farms. Children needed summer vacation because they helped with the farm work. Today only 3 percent of Americans work on farms. But our children still have long summer vacations. ‎ ‎ American students lose one or two months of learning during their summer vacations. Away from school for so many weeks students forget what they learned. Experts say that students lose maths skills and reading skills. At the beginning of school in September, teachers have to review last year’s studies for the first four to six weeks of school. ‎ ‎ Summer vacations are not great opportunities for learning. Most parents work outside of the home. They can’t be with their kids during the long summer months. Some families can pay for summer camps, but many can’t. Most children stay home and watch TV. They are bored. Most children do not learn new skills during the summer. ‎ James, Teacher ‎ ‎ Letter B To the Editor: ‎ ‎ I am against a longer school year. I believe people learn everywhere, not just in school. I believe children gain experience in the world. Summer vacation is a great opportunity. Kids can discover the world outside of school. They can learn to do things they can’t learn in a classroom. They can learn to swim and ride bikes. They can travel or go to summer camps. They can take time to do things like cooking and art.

The competition was fierce. The company was to employ only one among the twenty people. Tina said to me, “I am not afraid of disappointment. As long a s I try, there will always be hope! ”‎ ‎ Everything seemed to go quite well and Tina passed the first round and entered the final in a week’s time. ‎ ‎ On the day of the final interview, Tina and two other candidates （候选人）arrived on time, waiting for the test.

Please go home and wait for our answer. We will tell you the result in three days. Good luck to all of you!” On the third day, Tina received the message from the company telling her that she was not employed. She felt upset. In order to comfort her, I pretended to be relaxed and said, “It does not matter! I believe you will have more opportunities in the future!”‎ ‎ Late in the afternoon, Tina suddenly told me excitedly on the phone, “Dad, good news.
