My father was 38 in a poor village in the north of Jiangsu, in China. When he was a young boy, he went to school in the morning, then 39 in the fields till sunset. And then he did his homework 40 midnight. Life was hard, because they had no 41 !
At the age of 14, my father heard of the United States of America. It was the land of gold, the land where 42 people can become rich.

四、閱讀理解(本題共15小題;每小題2分，滿30分)
(A)
Mr Ma, a famous mental doctor (心理醫(yī)生) from Beijing once said at an important meeting, "Now many young students can have problems with their minds. Some students become worried because they have to study very hard. Others have trouble getting on well with people around them like their parents and classmates. Parents and teachers should care more about this problem."
Then Mr Ma gave some examples. A middle school student from Xi'an was doing badly in his lessons.He thought his teachers and friends often laughed at him, and he became so nervous and worried that one night he left his home without telling his parents. Another student, a 14-year-old schoolgirl from Shanghai, was very afraid of exams. While she was reading the exam paper, she couldn't think of anything to write.
A recent report from a newspaper says about 18% of the young students in Shanghai have mental problems. They often feel worried and very unhappy. Unluckily, many of them won't go and ask for help. Some think they will look stupid if they go to see a doctor. Others won't talk about their secrets.
At the end of the meeting, Mr Ma gave some good ideas to young people:
◆ Talk to your parents or teachers often.
◆ Join in group activities.
◆ Try to get on well with the people around you.
◆ Go to see a doctor if you often feel unhappy.

C. talked with her parents D. went to see the doctor
( ) 53.The underlined word "stupid" in this passage means ______.
A. pretty B. happy C. not clever D. not friendly
( ) 54.According to the last part , which of the followings is a good idea?
A. It's important for children to live with their parents.
B. It's helpful for people to see doctors every day.
C. It's useful for students to keep quiet in class.
D. It's necessary for young people to have group activities.

I had to make a safe place to live. I could not stay where I was because there was no fresh water there. I found a good piece of flat ground up a hill, with a cliff(峭壁)on one side and a good view of the sea. I put up my tent near the cliff. I cut some wood and made a strong fence(柵欄)around the area. The fence did not have a gate or door. I used a ladder to get over it to reach my tent and then pulled the ladder inside the fence. Nobody else could come in. I was safe. I brought all my things inside the fence. It took a long time to do this, sometimes in heavy rain.
I made a kind of cave in the cliff behind me, and I put a lot of things there to keep them dry. During one storm, I was afraid that lightning would hit my gunpowder(火藥),and I would lose it all. After the storm, I divided the gunpowder into small piles and put them in different places. Every day, I went out with my gun to shoot something that I could cook and eat. I found that there were goats on the island, and I soon shot one.
Every day, I made a mark on a piece of wood with a n axe(斧子). This way, I knew how long I had been on the island. I had some paper and ink from the ship, and I made notes about my new life. It was a terrible,lonely life, but at least I was alive, and I had saved many useful things from the ship, which would help to keep me alive.

If you go to a fast food restaurant, you will probably see a lot of teenagers. Today, many teenagers are overweight, and the reason of this is because of their bad eating habits. Most teenagers love fast food with a lot of fat, oil, salt and sugar. People often call this kind of food “junk food”.
But bad eating habits go beyond fast food. We find many teenagers eat unhealthily. Some don’t have breakfast before they go to school. During the day, some don’t have a proper meal for lunch. In a recent survey(調(diào)查) at one school, scientists found that over two thirds of the students didn’t follow a healthy diet. They didn’t like vegetables, and many of them didn’t like to eat fruits. They preferred to eat food with a lot of salt, sugar, or fat.
Parents today also worry about their children’s diet. Some doctors give the following advice:
Teenagers shouldn’t eat too much junk food.
Teenagers shouldn’t eat food with too much salt. Salt can cause high blood pressure(高血壓)in the future.
Teenagers should eat food with less fat, oil, and sugar.
Teenagers need to eat some fruits and vegetables every day. Fruits and vegetables are rich in vitamins(維生素)and have little fat.
Teenagers need to drink more milk. Milk will help their bones grow.
Teenagers need to eat breakfast every day. This is good for their body and mind.
( ) 61.“Junk food” contains(包括)a lot of _____.
A. milk and sugar B. fruits and sugar
C. vegetables and salt D. fat, oil, salt and sugar
( ) 62. In a recent survey at one school, scientists found many students liked _____.
A. vegetables B. fruits C. healthy food D. unhealthy food
( ) 63. What does the underlined word “beyond” mean in Chinese in this passage?
A. 超出 B. 不如 C. 相等 D. 在后面
( ) 64. In this passage doctors think that teenagers should eat more _____.
A. food with no vitamins B. fat and sugar C. vegetables and fruits D. salt and oil
( ) 65. The best title for this passage is _____.

When I was 15 months old, I had a bad fall. I landed on a glass rabbit and it cut my eye badly enough to blind it. The doctor said if the eye was taken out, my face would become out of shape, so my scarred (有疤痕的)and blind eye lived on with me.
Not all people were friendly to me. Some asked uncomfortable questions about my eye or even played jokes on me. When the kids played games, I was always the “bad guy”. I grew up imagining (想象) that everyone looked down on me.
Yet every time Mum noticed I was unhappy, she would say to me, “The world inside you is always colourful. Hold your head up high and face the world.” It helped me move on in life.
As a teenager, I always looked down to hide my shame (羞愧)
, but I found that people liked me when I held my head up high. In high school I was even made monitor, but outside I still felt like a freak (怪物). All I really wanted was to look like other people. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mum and she would look at me with loving eyes and say, “Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them see the love that is inside.” Mum’s love and encouragement gave me the confidence to remove my own doubt (懷疑). Finally I was able to face everything bravely. I learned not only to appreciate (欣賞) myself but to have love for others.

Have you ever thought of your purpose in life? If you don’t, you have to think about it seriously. You will lose yourself if you 35 to know what you really want in your life.
Here are some 36 about taking steps towards finding your life’s purpose.
Firstly, make a 37 of the things you do for fun, including some jobs that you prefer, your hobbies and so on. Imagine you’re a millionaire with no worries about money, how would you choose to 38 your time? Add those things 39 the list, even if you don’t do them at present. This list is about your passions(熱情)—the things that you would do 40 for the pleasure they give you. Then 41 the names of people you admire most, and the reasons why they attract you. You might admire an inventor for his love for creating something 42 . Or you might admire an actress for always being true to herself. Take these admirations of others 43 a way for you to live in the world.
Finally, make a list of the things you do naturally without thinking about them. Such talents may be an eye for detail or a great sense of humor. Some people are 44 at math or music, but there are plenty of other types of talents as well. It’s better for us to use our talents for our life purpose.

Every day we communicate with others—often with symbols or gestures (手勢(shì)). Here are some of the most common (常見(jiàn)的) gestures.
Shaking Hands
Shaking Hands has been done since at least the second century B.C. It’s a symbol of trust. Now we usually shake the right hands. But in the old time, people also shook left hands. The world record for handshakes is held by a man from New Jersey, who shook 11,000 hands in a single day.
Thumbs (拇指) Up
The Thumbs Up sign is thought to come from a match in Rome. There people decided whether the fighter would live or die by thumbs up or thumbs down. In fact it came from an old English saying “Here’s my thumb on it”. Businessmen held their thumbs up and extended (延伸) them until the two touched each other.
Rock, Paper, Scissors
Rochambeau, or rock, paper, scissors is played all over the world to deal with something difficult. In Indonesia, it is earwig (蜈蚣), human, and elephant. The earwig drives the elephant mad. The human killed the earwig, and the elephant killed the human. If you know why it is called Rochambeau, please let me know. It’s still a mystery (謎).
OK
The real history of this sign is lost. Some people think it is in connection with American president Martin Van Buren. He was often called as “Old Kinderhook.” Others say it is the bad handwriting which made OR—representing “order received” into OK.
48. People know the real history of ___________.
A. Shaking Hands and OK B. Thumbs up and OK
C. Shaking Hands and Thumbs up D. Rock, Paper, Scissors and OK
49. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Most people know how gestures came into use.
B. The sign of Thumbs up came from a match in Rome.
C. In Indonesia, a lot of people were killed by elephants.
D. Some people use Rock, Paper, and Scissors to solve problems.
50. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The history of some daily symbols and signs. B. Ways to make people trust you.
C. Importance to using right gestures. D. How bad handwriting made OK.
C
Tim Berners-Lee is not the most famous inventor in the world. However, his invention has changed our lives.
He was born in London, England in 1955. When he was a small boy, Tim was interested in playing with electrical things. He studied science at Oxford University. He made his first computer from an old television at the age of 21.
Tim started working on early computers. At that time, they were much bigger than now. He worked in England then Switzerland. Tim was really interested in two things, computers and how the brain works. How could the brain connect so many facts so quickly? He had to work with people all over the world. They shared information about computers. It was hard to manage all the information. He answered the same questions again and again. It took a lot of time. It was even difficult for computers in the same office in Switzerland to share information. Tim also forgot things easily. Could a computer work like a brain? Could it “talk” to other computers?
There was an Internet already but it was difficult to use. In 1989, Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web(WWW)all by himself. This had a special language that helped computers talk to each other on the Internet. When people wanted to share information with others, they used the World Wide Web. The Internet grew quickly after that.
Tim Berners-Lee doesn’t think he did anything special. He says that all of the ideas about the Internet were already there. All he did was to put them together. He says that many other people worked together to make the Internet what it is today.
Most inventors want to become rich. But Tim gave away the World Wide Web for nothing. He now works in America. He helps people share technology and wants the Internet to be free for everyone to use. Maybe he is the most important but least famous inventor in the world today!
51. The underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refers to “__________”.
A. Working on early computers B. Connecting different facts together
C. Repeating the answers to the same questions D. Travelling to the office in Switzerland
52. In what order did the following events take place?
a. Tim worked in England.
b. Tim invented the World Wide Web.
c. Tim studied science at Oxford University.
d. Tim made his first computer.
e. Tim worked in Switzerland.
A. c-e-d-a-b B. e-b-a-c-d C. c-d-a-e-b D. e-c-a-b-d
53. What does the writer think of Tim Berners-Lee?
A. He has changed our lives and he is great.
B. He is not famous because he is not rich.
C. He did nothing special but make people a good life.
D. He has made great achievements in memory research
D
I have tried to write a ghost story that won't make you unhappy with yourselves, with each other, with the seasons, or with me. I hope it haunts your houses pleasantly.
One Christmas Eve, old Scrooge and Bob were working busily in his office. It was a cold, foggy day. The fog was so thick that the houses opposite were like ghosts. It was only three o'clock in the afternoon, but it was already quite dark.
"Merry Christmas, Uncle! God bless you!" cried a happy voice. It was Scrooge's nephew.
"Bah!" said Scrooge. "Humbug (騙人的話)."
"Christmas is a humbug! Surely you don't mean that, Uncle." said his nephew.
"I do," said Scrooge. "Merry Christmas! What reason have you got to be merry? You are poor."
"OK, then," replied the nephew cheerfully. " What reason have you got to be sad? You are rich. Don't be angry, Uncle!" said his nephew.
"What else can I be?" answered the uncle, "I live in a world of fools! Merry Christmas! What's Christmas time to you? It's a time for paying bills without money. It's a time for finding yourself a year older, but not richer. Everyone who goes around saying 'Merry Christmas 'should have his tongue cut out. Yes, he should!"
"Uncle! Please don't say that!"said the nephew. "I've always thought of Christmas time as a good time, a kind, and a charitable, happy time. And so, Uncle, Christmas has never put any gold or silver in my pocket, but I think it has done me good. And it will do me good. And I say, God bless it!"
Bob, standing in the corner of the room, applauded (鼓掌). He realized his mistake very soon, and went quickly back to his work, but Scrooge had heard him.
"One more sound from you, Bob Cratchit," said Scrooge, "and you'll celebrate Christmas by losing your job!"
"Don't be angry with him, Uncle. Come and have dinner with us tomorrow."
"No." said Scrooge.
"I'm sorry you don't want to celebrate Christmas. But I do. So a Merry Christmas, Uncle !"
"Good afternoon!" said Scrooge.
"And a Happy New Year!" said his nephew.
"Good afternoon!" said Scrooge again.
His nephew left the room. He stopped to wish Bob a Merry Christmas. And Bob replied, "A Merry Christmas to you. too."
54. What did Scrooge think of Christmas wish?
A. It was simple. B. It was important. C. It was stupid. D. It was necessary.
55. What did Scrooge's nephew mean by saying "Christmas time is a charitable time"?
A. Christmas was a time to be generous and kind.
B. Christmas was a time to do some challenging work.
C. His uncle should give some money to his family.
D. His uncle should give away his money to the poor.
56. Which of the following is TRUE about Scrooge and Bob?
A. Scrooge was Bob's uncle. B. Bob worked for Scrooge.
C. Scrooge celebrated Christmas with Bob. D. Bob was Scrooge's visitor.
57. What can we infer (推斷) from the story?
A. Scrooge was working busily in his office before Christmas.
B. No rich people wanted to waste their time to celebrate Christmas.
C. Bob believed in Christmas wish as well as Scrooge's nephew.
D. Scrooge refused his nephew's invitation to dinner on Christmas day.

These days shared bikes are becoming the center of attention in my WeChat friend circle. Many of my friends are sharing photos of themselves riding bikes, especially during the weekend in natural parks, and I can see people logging in (登錄) and out of shared bike apps.
I’m very happy that there are shared bikes on the road. They have saved us a lot of time during special situations, and on beautiful, clear days, people enjoy riding them outside the city.
I tried shared bikes last week, and I didn’t like them very much. I think the first shared bikes without baskets are designed for athletes. They are very hard to ride, and the seats are not comfortable. It makes me wonder whether people really like riding shared bikes or are just saying this to agree with others.
A friend secretly told me she tried the bikes to fit in. She doesn’t like bikes and finds Beijing’s roads too hard for bike riding. But recently, the only way to hang out with her friends is riding out of town together. To join in social activities, she had to pick up bike riding again.
Another friend admitted that he started talking about and sharing photos on shared bikes in order just to appear modern and fashionable to friends. He started paying attention when shared bikes first came into use.
These views will give me something new to think about when I ride these bikes again.
55. What does the writer himself think of shared bikes?
A. They are very difficult to ride. B. Their seats are comfortable.
C. Athletes like shared bikes. D. They can save us a lot of money.
56. The underlined word “admitted” may mean _______________ in the passage.
A. told a lie B. told the truth C. kept a promise D. kept a secret
57 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. It’s quite simple to use shared bikes at special time.
B. Some people only appear to be interested in shared bikes.
C. The writer likes the bikes without baskets because they are for athletes.
D. Some people like to share photos riding bikes because they want to agree with others.

When you cough or sneeze, you’d better turn your head away from others and cover your mouth with the full part of your hand. And then, you should say, “Excuse me.”
This seems so simple, but it is surprising how many kids have never been told to do this. Actually, I notice adults all the time who cough and sneeze in public without placing a hand over the mouth. One important thing I point out to the kids is that after they sneeze or cough on their hands, they should wash their hands as soon as possible. If not, they will be passing those germs (細(xì)菌) along to everything and everyone they touch.
If you come to a door and someone is following you, hold the door. If the door opens by pulling, pull it open, stand to the side, and allow the other person to pass through first, then you can walk through. If the door opens by pushing, hold the door after you pass through.
After a few weeks of seeing kids try to get through doors in the school and watching them enter restaurants as the door hit other people, I knew I had to discuss the problem with my students. Teaching them small acts of kindness, such as letting someone else go through a door first as they hold it open, may seem unimportant, but it can go along way toward helping students realize how to be polite and thank others. Once they’ve been told, they’re halfway there.
When we have to go up moving stairs, we will stand to the right. That will give others who are in a hurry a choice of walking up the left-hand side of the moving stairs. When we are going to enter a lift, the underground, or a doorway, we will wait for others to exit before we enter.
After college when I moved to London, I was surprised at how polite everyone was in the subways. I was even more touched when I traveled to Japan. In both places, people made efforts to make way for others. On moving stairs, everyone stood to the right and walked to the left. On lifts, everyone would stand over to the side and allow others to exit before they would begin to enter.
58. When you cough or sneeze, you should ________.
A. touch everything B. cover your mouth
C. point out to the kids D. pass the germs to others
59. If you come to a door and someone is following you, you’d better _______.
A. hold the door B. pass through C. close the door D. stand to the side
60. Why should we stand to the right of moving stairs?
A. Because it’s dangerous to stand to the left. B. Because it’s a traffic rule which we must follow.
C. Because we must wait for others to move first.
D. Because we should make way for people in a hurry.
61. From the passage we can know the writer is a ________.
A. doctor B. traveler C. parent D. teacher
62. A. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. the rules of acts in public B. the ways of communication
C. the problems of meeting people D. the knowledge of social life
D
Many people think that keeping a diary is something that teenage girls do. It’s seen as a place to write down secrets, things you don’t want anyone else to know. The stereotype (模式化觀念) is that only women keep diaries. In fact, keeping a diary is a very old tradition. It can be useful for many different types of people. Many famous people have kept diaries. Many powerful people have kept diaries. Some of these people include famous writers and presidents.
Keeping a diary is said to have health advantages. Studies show that keeping a diary, that is, writing out thoughts daily, can reduce asthma symptoms (哮喘癥狀).
Writing uses your left brain, which is thoughtful and organized. While your left brain is busy, your right brain is free to create and feel. This allows you to use all of your brain power to better understand yourself, others, and the world around you.
The key to successful diary keeping is not stopping any thoughts from coming through. This even means allowing thoughts that influence you to come out in your writing. It helps make your feelings clearer, and is especially useful if a person is faced with a hard decision. Sometimes just writing down the ideas you agree and disagree helps you better understand a problem. You begin to see a problem from different ways. This is helpful if you don’t agree with others.
63. What does the word “it” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Keeping away from illness. B. Using your right brain to create.
C. Stopping some thoughts coming through. D. Allowing thoughts to come out in your diary.
64. According to the passage, keeping diaries can help ______.
A. get along with others B. understand things better
C. know more about the old tradition D. become famous in the future
65. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The advantages of keeping diaries. B. Keeping a diary with your left brain.
C. The ways of keeping a diary successfully. D. The reasons girls like keeping diaries.

We brush our teeth every day but few people know how well we’re brushing. Today, a French company has introduced an electric toothbrush, which can work wirelessly(無(wú)線地) with a smart phone. It’s called the Kolibree toothbrush. It has different models, and will cost from $99 to $200.
Users download an app and connect via Bluetooth, and the Kolibree will record 1) the time you spent brushing teeth, 2) whether all areas of your mouth are reached, 3) whether you brush up and down instead of just side to side. Then it will send the information to a mobile phone via Bluetooth, telling you whether you have brushed in a proper way. The Kolibree app records your progress and scores your brushing way to help you improve brushing habits.
The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other apps on your phone, so developers could create a game controlled by your toothbrush. That would be very interesting.
The Kolibree toothbrush was invented by Thomas Serval. He says the idea of inventing it came from his experience as a father. He would come home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They always answered “yes”, but Thomas used to find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided that a kind of brush was needed to tell him how well they brushed their teeth.
Thomas says that one day, it’ll be possible to use a brushing unit with a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.
