They began to dig in one corner, and they got to the end of the field. At the same time, Joe thought he would 13 some crops where the earth had been 14 .

One of Joe's neighbours suggested that he 16 a vegetable shop. Joe and his wife did that very thing. They called it Joe and Family Vegetable.

The rockets take astronauts and man-made satellites into space. The satellites are used for communication, weather monitoring and research. But how do satellites stay up without Falling down?

There are two opposite forces acting on the satellite.

One of them is the force of gravitation(地心引力), which

tries to pull the satellite toward the earth. The other force

is created by the rotation (旋转)of the satellite around the

earth. This force tries to take the satellite away from the earth. With these two forces, the satellite goes round and round. The gravitational pull of the earth is like a rope which keeps the satellite from flying away.

Everything that goes up has to come down. It is only a matter of time before a satellite comes back to the earth. As time goes by, the satellite loses its speed, which makes the gravitational pull stronger than the force pulling it away. This makes the satellite crash (坠落)down to the earth.

23. The force that pulls the satellite towards the earth is created by ________.
A. the earth                              B. the satellite itself
C. the rotation of the satellite          D. the rope 

24. Why can't the satellites fly away?
A. Because of the force from the earth.
B. Because the satellite is too big.
C. Because of the force created by the rotation of the satellite around the earth.
D. Because people on earth have made ropes to tie the satellites tightly.

25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. There are four forces acting on the satellite.
B. The force of gravitation makes the satellite go round and round.
C. As time goes by, the satellite will finally fall down.
D. The satellite will stay in space forever.

C

What's the most important thing for you to have in your life? Somebody mentions hard work; others suggest knowledge, love and luck.

If you arrange(排列)the 26 English letters in

order and use numbers to represent each of them, for

example, 1 for a, 2 for b, 3 for c. . . 26 for z, you can

change an English word into a number. So hard work

becomes 8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11=98，meaning 98

is its mark; knowledge: 11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5

=96;love:12+15+22+5=54, and luck: 12+21+3+11=47，

a small mark. None of these words can give one a full

mark. What about money? It can't, either.

Then what else? Don't be worried. You can always find an answer to a problem in your life, when you change your way of looking at things or doing things, or your attitude. Yes, attitude is the word. See for yourself : attitude:1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5=100，a full mark.

Different attitudes lead to different courses of life. Most time people hope for a better life. It is possible that they will have a better life if they change their attitudes. When you change your manner and became friendly toward others, you'll meet more smiling faces toward you. In the same way, if you take a positive attitude toward failure, you'll find it's also rewarding(有益的)though it has caused you losses(损失).

26.The writer thinks is the most important thing in a person's life.

A. hard work B. knowledge C. money D. attitude

27. What is the mark of the word. "money" according to the passage?

A. 73. B. 72. C. 75. D.62.

28. From the passage we can learn that .

A. different attitudes come from different courses of life

B. sometimes failure can bring you good if you take a positive attitude

C. math can solve every problem easily in our daily life

D. none of the English words except "attitude" is 100 or more

D

“The hound(猎犬)!” cries Holmes. “Come, Watson! Come.”

We run quickly over the moor(荒野). We hear one last cry. A man is lying on the ground. As we approach(靠近) we see the dead body of Sir Henry Baskerville. He is wearing his brown suit.

“Oh, no!” says Holmes, “This man has a beard!”

Indeed Selden is dead instead of Sir Henry.

“So it is all clear to me. I remember that Sir Henry gave his old suit to Barrymore, and Barrymore probably gave it to Selden—his wife's brother.”

“Then Selden is dead because of this suit,” says Holmes.

“Think, Watson! Someone gives the hound some of Sir Henry's clothes—probably the boot from the hotel in London. The hound picks up Sir Henry's scent and runs after this poor man.”

Suddenly we see Stapleton walking towards us. He says, “There was a strange noise. I was worried about Sir Henry. I wanted to check if he was all right.”

“Really?” asks Holmes.

Stapleton looks at Holmes. “Why, it is Mr Sherlock Holmes, the famous detective! Can you solve the mystery of the Hound of the Baskervilles?”

Holmes shrugs his shoulders,“We cannot solve every mystery. Anyway I will return to London tomorrow.”

“Oh, will you return to London tomorrow?”

“Yes.”

So Holmes and I walk off to Baskerville Hall and Stapleton walk to his home.

Holmes thinks Stapleton is dangerous. But we have no proof that Stapleton is the murderer.

“There are no marks on Sir Charles's body. We know that he died of fright, but we can't prove anything.”

“Things are becoming clear to me,” Holmes says to Sir Henry. “It's a very difficult case. And you must help me to catch this hound.”

We are surprised to see one portrait(画像) of a thin man is Sir Hugo, the first victim of the Hound of the Baskervilles. And he's like both Sir Henry and Stapleton. “Stapleton is a Baskerville,” replies Holmes. “So he wants to inherit(继承) the Baskerville fortune, and he…,” I say. It's an important clue.

29.The underlined word “scent” in Paragraph 7 probably means “　　　　”. 

A.taste　　　B.boot　　　C.suit　　　D.smell.

30.We can infer(推断) from the passage that 　　　　. 

A.Sir Henry tells Holmes that Stapleton is a Baskerville

B.Stapleton wants to murder Sir Henry indeed

C.Watson finds out that Selden is Mrs Stapleton's brother

D.Stapleton kills Selden by frightening him with the hound

31.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A.Holmes and Watson think Mr Barrymore murders Selden.

B.Holmes doesn't catch Stapleton because he has no proof.

C.Holmes and Watson find the dead body of Stapleton on the moor one night.

D.Holmes tells Stapleton that he and Watson are going back to London.

32.According to the last paragraph, what gives Sherlock Holmes an important clue?

A.One portrait of Sir Hugo. B.The Hound of the Baskervilles.

C.The Hound of Sir Henry. D.One portrait of Stapleton.

第七部分 阅读表达（共3小题；53题1分,54题2分,55题3分，满分6分）

请认真阅读下面短文并用英语回答问题，将答案写在横线上。

Mother Teresa once said, "Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person" However, a recent survey showed that 25% of Chinese never smiled or smiled less than five times a day. It also found that 2~6 of Chinese were willing to smile at strangers.

To make a change, forty students from Shanghai Normal University started a team of "Smiling Volunteers". Their first smiling task was-to smile at all the visitors in the Shanghai Film Art Centre and ask if they needed their help. Not all students found it easy to smile all the time. "When volunteers help other people, smiling is the best way to make them understand that volunteers are ready and sincere(诚挚的),”one team leader said.

A teacher in charge of(负责)the team thought the team's work was not all fun and games. "Most of our students will be teachers after they leave university. Smiling is necessary for good teachers. We hope they can learn how to smile at each other, she said. Everyone smiles in the same language. So it's not important whether you are a teacher or not. After all, sincere smiling and helping hearts are the most important. If today you don't start a day with a smile, it won't be too late to start practising for tomorrow. Remember "The world always looks brighter from behind a smile."

53. How many Chinese never smiled or smiled less than five times a day?

54. What will most of the students be after they leave Shanghai Normal University?

55. Do you think smiling is necessary in your life? Why or why not?

Lifelong Learning

When you finish high school or university, is learning done? The answer is “no”. In many countries, people continue learning all their lives.

Why is lifelong learning important? You go to school and learn. You study. You take tests. But learning doesn’t only happen in schol. And learning doesn’t stop when you finish high school or university. You are learning all the time. For example, learning can happen when you go to a museum. It can also happen when you read a book. You learn when you play a sport or when you take a trip. Learning is life! We never stop learning. Every day, you can improve yourself by learning something new.
