My sister Alli and I have been trying to get people to stop dropping cigarette butts(烟蒂) for seven years.
One day, we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground.
They made the ground dirty.
They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people stop dropping butts. We called it “No Butts About It!”
At first, we drew pictures with“The Earth Is Not Your Ashtray(烟灰缸)” written on them. We put the pictures around our hometown—in parks, by beaches, and along roads.
We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts does harm to the environment. Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts harms the earth. But it does! All rubbish does.
Later, we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us. We used the money to buy ashtrays to give smokers.
We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts.
At the moment, we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes. Some companies would like to do it.
Many people have started to join our group since it began. Today there are 45 other “No Butts About It” groups inAmerica. And there are even groups inEngland,AustraliaandIndia!
Many newspapers have written about my sister and I over the last seven years. And we have won many prizes for our good work.
But we are not interested in prizes. We just want to make the earth a better and cleaner place for animals, plants and people.
One day it will be.

(A)

Your computer has been playing music for years, one CD at a time. Now hundreds of songs can be stored in your PC if they’re in the MP3 format(格式).

What is it?
MP3 compressed(压缩) music into small computer files(文件). You may download MP3 music in several ways. Music can be downloaded from websites that have turned wide music libraries into MP3. Once MP3 music is on your PC’s hard drive(硬盘), you can play it through your computer’s speakers,“burn”it onto blank(空白的) CDs or swap(交换) MP3 files with friends using e-mail.

How much?
Software(软件) needed to play and turn MP3 music is often free. Compact portable(小巧便携的) MP3 players start at around $40 and can hold hundreds of songs. A blank CD on which you can record music costs about a dollar.

Advantages
MP3 turns your home PC into a jukebox(自动点唱机). Small MP3 players are the size of a deck of cards(一副纸牌), making it easy to take hundreds of songs with you.

Disadvantages
You may find that some websites only allow you to listen but you can’t download music. Others let you download music but can’t be copied to MP3 players. And a growing number of new CDs make it impossible to copy songs to a computer.

( )36.How can you get MP3 music?
         A.By turning your home PC into a jukebox.
         B.By taking your own music or songs with you.
         C.By copying songs to a PC through the speakers.
         D.By downloading from websites, which have turned music libraries into MP3.
( )37.What is the closest meaning of the underlined word “burn”?
         A.copy                      B.play                   C.store                   D.change
( )38.According to the passage, which is WRONG?
         A.Software needed to play and turn MP3 music is often free.
         B.MP3 music can be “burned” onto blank CDs or be swapped with friends by e-mail.
         C.MP3 music can be taken along while traveling.
         D.A growing number of new CDs make it possible to copy songs to a computer.
( )39.How much will you pay for a compact portable MP3 player?
         A.Free.                                                    B.At least 10 dollars.
         C.About forty dollars.                               D.About a dollar.
( )40.How many disadvantages of MP3 can we see from the passage?
         A.2.                         B.3.                      C.4.                      D.5.

The workers who brought the girl to the orphanage(孤儿院) knew little about her. The street where they found her had been her home for many years. Her parents were unknown. They left her long ago. At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was taught to read and write. While she was studying at the orphanage, she learned something else－to be independent(独立). At twenty-one, she left the orphanage and began to work as a secretary. And then, in 1975, while she was still working as an ordinary secretary, something special happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong Competition and won it. This was the turning point in her life. Now her name, Mary Cheung, was known to everybody.
Mary entered the competition because she wanted to show that orphanage girls could be something. Winning the competition gave her the chance to start a new life. This led her first into television and then into business as a manager. When she was working as a manager, she had trouble with her reports. “My English just wasn’t good enough.” she says. Luckily, she had a boyfriend (who later became her husband) to help her.
Mary studied management(管理) at Hong Kong Polytechnic and graduated in 1980. She started her own business in 1985. But she did not stop developing herself. She then studied at theUniversityofHong Kong. Since 1987, she had spent a lot of time on photography(摄影). She has held several exhibitions of her works in many places－China,New ZealandandParis. She still found time, however, to work on TV, write for newspapers and support her family.
The girl from the street has come a long way, but her journey has not finished yet.

         C.Miss Hong Kong                                     D.known to everybody
( )43.When did her life change completely?
         A.In 1987.                                                 B.In 1985.
         C.In 1980.                                                 D.In 1975.

Singapore, July 12－many people enjoy chewing(咀嚼) gum, but in 1992 Singapore decided to make it against the law. The government said that people were not careful about throwing away used gum. Instead, they dropped it on sidewalks and on the streets where it made a big mess. Chewing gum also got stuck in the doors of the underground trains so that the doors didn’t close properly. This meant the trains didn’t run on time.Singaporesaid that people had to give up chewing gum or pay a lot of money to the government. During the time without chewing gum, the streets and underground trains ofSingaporewere clean.
Now the government ofSingaporeis changing the rules a little. Some dentists say that chewing sugarless gum can help take care of people’s teeth. Now the government says that people will be able to buy special kinds of gum at drugstores for health reasons. Other kinds of gum are still not allowed.

Many people always say that listening to spoken English is too hard for them. But if you don’t understand what people are saying, how can you talk with them? It may be difficult, but learning by listening is necessary.
As we know, different people have different pronunciations of the same word. Standard pronunciation is important for English speaking as well as for listening. InChina, people from one area may not understand what people from another area are saying because of the different Chinese dialects(方言). Standard Chinese pronunciation can help people from different places understand each other easily.
It is the same as English. If your pronunciation is not standard, it is hard for other people to understand you.
If you want to learn how to listen to English, the following ways are helpful.
Get some good books with tapes. Do the exercises, from the simple to the difficult, step by step.
You can also watch English-language films and TV programs, listen to English-language radio.
Try to listen every day, even if only a few minutes. At first you may understand few words. Don’t give up. Just listen.
Remember to read and speak English every day. It will help you to listen better, spend an hour reading English every day. Finally you will notice that you are making progress.
Talk to English-speaking foreigners as often as possible. Foreigners will speak slowly with you, use simple words, and use body language to help you understand them. Don’t be afraid to talk to them. They won’t mind if you have trouble because they may have more trouble making themselves understood in Chinese.

第二部分基础知识运用

Ⅰ.1.D  have/has gone to已去某地 (没回来)；have/has been to 已去过某地 (说话时已回
            来了)。
2.B  be worth doing sth. “值得做某事”。

6.D  分数的表达为基数词作分子，序数词作分母。当分子大于1时，分母上要加-s，而
      谓语动词的单复数取决于分数之后的名词，不能用likes，故D项表达正确。
7.B  on用于对时间的特指，后半句考查被动语态。
8.B  问人口数量用what，宾语从句的语序要用陈述句语序。
9.C  be used by “被…… (人) 使用”；be used as“被作为……使用”；be used for doing sth.

         题意。

42.B  根据The Internet has a large number of websites in it. 可知B项不符合原文为错误选项。
43.C  在第三段文字中我们找不到与A项相关的内容，事实上，网站上的文章也不是由

We’ll come back to school at 5:00 p.m.
That’s all. Thank you!

Good morning, everyone!
We are all living in this city. It’s our duty to keep it clean and tidy. We shouldn’t spit in public places, such as in the street, park or on the square. We shouldn’t throw rubbish here and there, either. Besides, we must protect trees and flowers. And we must take some steps to stop people from polluting the river. If everybody tries his best to do something useful for our city, our city will become more beautiful.
That’s all. Thank you.

第二部分基础知识运用

Ⅰ.（A）
1.B  be able to与can同义，但be able to有各种时态形式。
2.D  be similar to“和……相似”，同be the same as“和……一样”近义。
3.A  reply vi. “回答，答复”，同answer，但它后面接宾语时必须是reply to+宾语。tell不合题意，故选A。
4.C  从句是目的状语，可用in order that或so that。in order to和so as to后接动词原形。
5.B  either side of the street 指的是街道的每一边，是用单数形式表达复数概念，同both sides。
（B）
6.A  discover v. “发现，发觉(原已存在而未被发现的东西)”, invent v. “发明，创造 (世间并不存在的东西)”。
7.C  形容词修饰不定代词，形容词要放在不定代词之后，something用于肯定句中。
8.A  So+主语+助动词/情态动词/be表示B同意A所说的情况，意为“的确如此”。
9.D  have/has gone to 指已经去了某地，说话时指人没回来，have/has been to指已经
      去过某地。但是，谓语动词的单复数取决于but also之后的主语，故选D。

         而不用borrow。
12.B  stop sb. from doing sth. 表示“阻止某人做某事”。本句主语是谓语动词动作的承受
         者，应用被动语态，故正确答案为B。
13.B  短语divide … into … “把……分成……”，half的复数形式为halves, 故选B。
14.B  根据题意“你去过国外 (出国) 几次了？”故用have/has been to短语，abroad是
         副词，注意其前面不用to, 故选B。
15.B  主要考查upstairs, downstairs修饰名词或动词时直接放在其后，故选B。

36.D  本题问题为，你怎样才能获得MP3音乐？从阅读得知我们可以在网上下载，因此
      答案为D。
37.A  从阅读方框一可知，一旦MP3音乐被下载到电脑的硬盘中，你就可以通过电脑的
         扬声器进行播放，还可以复制到空的CD上。所以burn在这里应意为copy。
38.D  根据阅读可知许多新型的CD加入加密程序后不能被拷入电脑。而D项为能够，
         故本项错误。
39.C  从阅读方框二可直接找到一个小巧便携的MP3的价格约为40美元左右，故C项

         her life. 可知。
44.A  这是一条新闻报道，通常刊登在报纸上。
45.C  阅读第二段可得此答案。

      及公共卫生遭到破坏。所以此项是正确的。
48.T  在文章第一段结尾处可直接找到该答案。
49.F  在第二段结尾处可知政府规定市民可到药店购买特别种类的口香糖，而不是去牙
         医那里买。
50.F  从文章最后一句可知其他种类的口香糖在新加坡仍然禁止。故本答案为F。
（D）文章大意: 许多人说听英语对他们来说很难。本文作者针对这一问题介绍了五种听英语和讲英语的方法。
51.They say it is too hard for them. 从文章的第一句话就可找到该问题的答案。
52.Because standard English pronunciation can help people from different places understand each other easily. 由文章第二段最后一句Standard Chinese pronunciation can help people from different places understand each other easily. 和第三段第一句It is the same as English.综合得知此答案。

The doctor told me to stay in bed for two days. So I can’t go to school today and tomorrow. I hope I’ll get well soon and back to school the day after tomorrow. Thank you.

The Changes in My Hometown

In the past, my hometown was very small. People lived a poor life. The houses were old and small. Pollution was very serious, and there was rubbish everywhere. The transportation was not convenient, so few visitors came here.
Now great changes have taken place in my hometown. The environment has become much better. The mountains have turned greener. The rivers are clearer and the sky is bluer. There are trees, flowers and grass everywhere. People live a better life. Their houses are large and bright. Many people have their own cars. Every year, thousands of people from all over the world come to visit our city. I’m sure my hometown will become better and better in the future.
