He was there, he had them in his hands, and now they are missing.”‎ Samuel remembered two days ago when he had brought out his coin collection for Everett to see. At the end of that day, Samuel’s mother asked him to take a note to Mr. Bates down the street, so he asked his friend, “Is it okay if I leave you for a few minutes?” Everett had said, “Go ahead. I’ll clean up here.” pointing at the piles of coins on the floor. When Samuel had returned, he had done his homework, had eaten dinner, and had read for a while before bed. It was not until two days later that he realized the quarters were gone.‎ Emily said, “Why don’t you just ask him?” “Ask him what? Hey, Best Friend, did you steal my coin collection?” Samuel thought for a moment, deciding if that would be a good idea. The theft of his collection left him with a feeling of betrayal (背叛). “How could I have misjudged my friend?”‎ The next day Samuel went over to Everett’s house. Everett was acting funny. In fact, Samuel thought Everett was acting like someone with a secret. Suddenly, Everett cried, “I can’t stand it anymore!” and pulled something from underneath the chair. “Go on — open it! I was going to ‎ wait until your birthday tomorrow, but I can’t wait!”‎ Slowly, Samuel lifted the top of the box. Laid out in front of him were all of the quarters from his coin collection. Each quarter was in its own place in a new collection case. Each quarter shone like it was new.‎ Samuel felt heat rush over his neck and ears. He weakly said, “Thank you — this means ... a great deal to me.” He was thankful that Everett had cut him off before he said something bad. Everett was exactly the type of person he wanted as a friend!‎ ‎25. From Paragraph 1to 3, we know that ________.‎ A. Samuel’s coins were missing B. Everett had stolen Samuel’s coins C.

Traditionally only men performed in Peking Opera, including the female roles. And Mei Lanfang was the very best master of the Miss. During his stage life, he combined the traditions of the past with his own creations, shaping a style of his own and giving birth to “The Mei Lanfang School”. He was also the first artist to introduce Peking Opera to an overseas audience, winning international fame across the globe. For half a century, Mei Lanfang was a household name in China. ‎ Mei Lanfang began his stage life at the age of 8. His teacher said he showed little hope because of his boring eyes. To improve this, he exercised them day after day. He would fly kites and look at them moving slowly in a blue sky. He also kept pigeons in order to look at them flying higher and higher until they disappeared into the clouds. Thanks to his efforts, he managed to change his dull eyes into a pair of bright and expressive eyes and win national fame before the age of 20.‎ In over 50 years on the stage, Mei Lanfang played no less than 100 different characters in the traditional Peking Opera performance. He completely changed both stage make-up and costumes, and enriched characters’ gestures and expressions. He also wrote many new plays, designing the dances himself. The many dances he created form part of the great legacy that he left to Peking Opera.‎ In 1930, Mei Lanfang started on a successful US tour. There his brilliant performances fascinated the audience, making them realize that Peking Opera was a most valuable form of art. ‎ ‎28. What does the first sentence mean?‎ A. Mei Lanfang plays an important role in Peking Opera.‎ B. Mei Lanfang made Peking Opera a complete art form.‎ C. Peking Opera was first introduced to the world by Mei Lanfang.‎ D. Peking Opera would not be well-known without Mei Lanfang.‎ ‎29. How long did it take Mei Lanfang to exercise his eyes into bright and expressive ‎ ones?‎ A. About 8 years. B. About 10 years. ‎ C. About 12 years. D. About 14 years.‎ ‎30. What is the meaning of the underlined word “legacy” in paragraph 3? ‎ ‎ A. Something of little importance. ‎ ‎ B. Someone well known all over the world.‎ ‎ C. Someone considered to be an art treasure.‎ ‎ D. Something valuable passed down from generation to generation. ‎ ‎31. What is the main idea of the passage?‎ A. The history of Peking Opera.‎ B. Mei Lanfang’s early stage life. ‎ C. The creations of Peking Opera by Mei Lanfang.‎ D. Mei Lanfang’s great contributions to Peking Opera.‎ D Happy birthday! Do birthdays really make people happy? Of course they do. Birthdays celebrate the day we were born. Besides, that extra candle on the cake suggests another year of growth and maturity(成熟)—or so we hope. We all like to imagine that we’re getting wiser and not just older. Most of us enjoy seeing the miracle of growth in others, as well. For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud. For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process. But growing old? That’s a different story.‎ Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented American culture. Most Americans like to look young, act young and feel young. As the old saying goes, “You’re as young as you feel.” Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years old. People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom. But Americans seem to favor those who are young, or at least “young at heart”.‎ Many older Americans find the “golden years” to be anything but golden. Economically, “senior citizens” often struggle just to get by. Retirement at age 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income. Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference. Older people may suffer from poor nutrition, medical care and housing. Some even experience age discrimination (歧视). In 1987, American sociologist Pat Moore dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets. She was often treated rudely—even cheated and robbed. However, dressed as a young person, she received much more respect.‎ Unfortunately, the elderly population in America is increasing fast. Why? People are living together. Fewer babies are being born. And middle-aged “baby boomers” are rapidly entering the groups of the elderly. America may soon be a place where wrinkles (皱纹) are “in”. Marketing experts are already noticing this group of consumers.（消费者）‎ ‎32. which is the correct statement according to the third paragraph?‎ A. many old people in America are suffering age discrimination.‎ B. the golden years can make the old earn lots of money.‎ C. the old in America have to retire at the age of 65.‎ D. American social security benefits are good.‎ ‎33. From the last paragraph we know that the underlined word “in” can be replaced by ________.‎ A. little B. bad C. disappearing D. popular ‎34. From this passage we can know ________.‎ A. In America, growing up is not a wonderful process ‎ B. In America, growing up is as wonderful a process as growing old ‎ C. In America, growing up is a wonderful process, while growing old is not ‎ D. In America, growing old is a wonderful process, while growing up is not ‎35. What should be mentioned in the next paragraph?‎ A. The public will change their attitude towards old people.‎ B. People will provide more services to the old in their communities.‎ C. The government will pass laws to ensure the benefits of the people. ‎ D. Companies will soon produce more goods for old Americans.‎ 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。‎ Food safety is a problem in all places around the world and people in different areas of the world prepare foods in different ways. The WHO released five simple rules for preparing food in a safe way. They call these rules the “Five Keys to Safer Food”.‎ Key 1: Keep clean ‎ 36 .
