Choose the best answer（根据短文内容，选择最恰当的答案): (12分) The cultural traditions of African dress Clothing is a language. It tells us about individual people: their personality, their age, their place in society and so on. If we want to know more about society, we can look at traditional clothing.‎ ‎ The continent of Africa has a long history and a rich culture, and this is shown in traditional dress. You often find three colours — red, gold and green in the clothing. The first colour stands for the blood of millions of people who suffered as slaves(奴隶); the second is for the rich resources of the African earth; and the third represents the grasslands of home. The patterns on the clothing also have a meaning. A common pattern is in the form of a cross “×”, which stands for “unity”. Another pattern is a rectangular box, which represents “strength”. Because clothing has a strong social meaning, people are very careful in choosing what to wear. It would be a serious mistake to wear the wrong clothing, or to wear clothes in the wrong way. For instance, in Ghana, a woman should wear her waistband differently according to the importance of the social event. Traditional dress also tells us about everyday life. African designs are famous for loose(宽松的) clothing. The climate, with the hot sun and wide temperature ranges(变化), requires that the clothes are comfortable for daily life. Although many people wear western clothes, particularly in the big cities in Africa, traditional dress is very highly valued(评价). This is because it has deep cultural meanings. 74. The passage is mainly about ________ in Africa. A) the history of clothes B) modern fashion styles C) the meanings of traditional dress D) the materials used in traditional dress 75. Clothing tells us everything except their ________. A) age and place in society B) style and place in society C) personality and age D) height and weight 76. According to the passage, red ________. A) represents the setting sun B) stands for African unity C) is chosen because it is a bright colour D) is a reminder(暗示) of the sad history in Africa 77. ________ stands for wealth. A) Green B) Gold C) Yellow D) Black 78. Traditional dress should also be practical(实用) because ________. A) it has deep cultural meanings B) people wear it in the big cities C) it needs to protect people from the climate D) it needs to keep people dry in the rainy season 79. According to the passage, which sentence is NOT RIGHT? ________ A) African dress has deep cultural meanings. B) Africa has a long history and a rich ‎ culture. C) The rectangular box in the pattern represents “strength”. D) People in the big cities in Africa prefer to wear western clothes. B. Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage（选择最恰当的单词或词语完成短文):（12分） Head teacher, teachers, grandparents, parents and classmates, I’m very proud that I have been chosen to speak to you all today. I’m a bit 80 as I’ve never made a speech before to so many people, so please forgive me if it shows! As we all know, this is the school leavers’ party, and it’s time to say 81 to everyone. We’re sorry to leave you at the end of our junior high school education, and we promise that we’ll never forget the happy times we have spent in these buildings with you all. I’d like to thank three groups of people for the three things I’ve learnt while I’ve been a student at our school. The three things are friendship, love and 82 . The first group is my friends, and what I’ve learnt is the importance of friendship. We’ve worked hard together, we’ve even shared some difficult times together, but we’ve also had a lot of fun. Many of us will go to new schools and we may not see each other so often in the future. Others will go on to senior high school and continue their close friendships. But friends don’t have to see each other 83 . Sometimes the friends you treasure most are the friends you see less often. A life without old friends is like a day without sunshine. We’ll always stay in touch. The second group is our parents and grandparents. We thank you for the love you have shown us during our years at junior high school, for making a home where we feel both safe and relaxed, and where we can prepare ourselves for our school days. And finally, the third group is our teachers. We can never 84 you back for your kindness, your patience, and knowledge which you have offered us. Sometimes you’ve been strict with us; sometimes you’ve made us work very hard. But you have always been fair and you’ll always be our role models. There’s a saying from Ireland which is a favourite of mine: Strangers are only friends you haven’t met yet. I couldn’t say it 85 myself. So from the bottom of my heart, I thank you all and wish you success for the future. 80. A) excited B) nervous C) forgetful D) shocked 81. A) hello B) thanks C) goodbye D) apology 82. A) time B) money C) knowledge D) energy 83. A) in time B) all the time C) at a time D) for the first time 84. A) pay B) give C) send D) get 85. A) good B) well C) better D) best C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words（在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺，每空格限填一词，首字母已给):（14分） Shopping used to mean actually going to shops, but nowadays, you can shop without even leaving your house. Just sit in front of your computer, click your m 86 and your things will be sent to your house in a matter of days. ‎ ‎ Nov. 11 was a big day for people who liked shopping online. Many online stores o 87 a big discount(打折) and free delivery service. On that day, the biggest online shopping sites in China, taobao.com and tmall.com, sold things worth 19.1 billion yuan in total. “Goods online are often much c 88 . It also saves me a lot of time. And we often have more c 89 on many online stores than in shopping malls,” Wang Xin, an online shopping lover in Beijing, said to China Daily. Another big advantage of online shopping is that it helps people get things from different cities, even different countries, with ease. “I like eating duck neck very much and I often buy it on Taobao from shops in Wuhan. It’s much more delicious than w 90 our local stores sell,” said Zhang Xi, a girl in Yangzhou. While enjoying online shopping, many people also have worries, especially for middle school student buyers. Young students are e 91 attracted by advertisements on the Internet and buy things they don’t need. “Middle school students should pay more a 92 to their study. Searching for things wastes their time,” said Jing Chunling, an education expert. “Online shop owners have no idea of the ages of their buyers. It’s dangerous when young students buy things such as cigarettes and wines so conveniently.” D. Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题): (12分) What is the Internet? The Internet is a worldwide network, linking computers to computers. Each computer runs software to provide or ‘serve’ information, or to access and view information. The Internet transports the information — like a giant plumbing system. Computers on the Internet can use: electronic mail (email). This allows you to send and receive mail with other computer users. the World Wide Web (WWW). Through the WWW you can view images, look at film clips, hear sound recordings and find information on many interests. This information is stored on websites. On the Internet, you can access information stored on other computers, or jump from one page of information to another. Each page has its own address showing its location, just like your home address. What do you need to use the Internet? A connection to an Internet Service Provider (or ISP). The most commonly used method is across a telephone line with a modem (preferably a fast one). Internet software, e.g. Internet Explorer, provided by your ISP — usually called a ‘browser’. How does email work? First, you need an email address. It could look something like this: If someone sends Daniel an email, the message is received by Daniel’s ISP and waits there till the next time he connects to the Internet. When he connects (that is called logging on) his message ‎ is sent down the telephone line to his modem and onto his email program. How do you send email? It’s a bit like sending a letter. You need to know the email address of the person who’s receiving your letter. Type in that person’s email address in the ‘To’ box and type your message. When you’ve finished, click on ‘Send’. If someone has already sent you a message, you can just click on ‘Reply’ and type your message. It’s as easy as that. Some Internet Codes .com commercial institutions .edu educational institutions .gov government institutions .net networks Country Codes .au Australia .jp Japan .nz New Zealand Email addresses in the USA have no country code, because the Internet originated(起源于) there. For example, the Internet address for Expert Software (made in the USA) is www.expertsoftware.com. 93. What does ISP stand for(代表)? 94. WWW can help us look at film clips and find information as well, can’t it? 95. Where is the information stored? 96. If your friend sent you an email, what would be the quickest way to send one back? 97. Why do email addresses in the USA have no country code? 98. What’s your favourite website? Why? Ⅶ.

Instead they are talking about a lovely animal: a dog! These words show the friendship between people and animals. Dogs and other pets can give happiness to people’s lives. Some people think of their pets as their children. A few even leave all their money to their pets when they die!‎ ‎ Animals can help people, too. Dogs can be taught to become the “eyes” for a blind person or “ears” for a deaf person. Scientists have found that pets help people live longer! They make people happier, too. That’s why animals are brought into hospitals for “visits”.‎ ‎ Americans hold “Be Nice to Animals Week”, the first week of May. Pet shows are held during the week. Even if you don’t live in America, you can also do this. How? If you have a pet, take more time this week to play with it. Remember to give it delicious food.‎ ‎ If you don’t have a pet, be kind to animals around you. If you see a street dog, don’t kick it or throw things at it. Instead, just leave it alone, or better yet, make friends with it. If others around you do bad things to an animal, try to stop them. As people, we must protect animals who can’t speak for themselves. ‎ happiness 25. taught 26. longer 27. Week 28. more 29. street 30. speak)‎ Part 2‎ Ⅱ. 31. A 32. C 33. B 34. C 35. B 36. C 37. D 38.
