Mr. Brown said, "I see that you don't talk to anyone or show any 17 in anything. What's wrong?" Larry replied, "Sir, I have a very 18 life. I have to face some very sad things and I keep 19 them. Because of this, I can't focus my attention on anything and don't even feel like talking to anybody. "

Mr. Brown listened carefully, thought for a while and said, "Would you like some lemonade（柠檬汽水）?"Larry felt a little 20 and nervously replied，"Yes, thank you!"

While 21 lemonade, Mr. Brown added more salt and kept the amount of sugar low. Larry made a 22 face as soon as he drank a sip（一小口）of that lemonade. Seeing this, Mr. Brown asked "You don't like it?"

"Um. . it's just there is a bit too much salt in it, "Larry answered.

Mr. Brown stopped him, “Oh, it doesn't matter. I will throw it away." As the teacher was lifting the glass to take it away, Larry stopped him and said, “Sir, please don't throw it away. 23 we put a little more sugar in the lemonade, it will be fine to drink.”

Hearing this, Mr. Brown said happily, "This is what I want to hear from you. To improve the 24 of lemonade, we don't need to remove（去掉）the salt from it. We can just add some sugar to. it. Similarly, we cannot remove sad things that have 25 happened to us, but we can add sweetness of good experiences in our life. If you keep on crying about your past, neither your present will be right nor the future will be bright. "

第三部分∶阅读理解（共15 小题;每小题 2分，满分30分）

阅读下面两篇短文，从 26~31各题所给的四个选项（A BC D）中，选出最佳选项。

A

"How are you? " is a nice question. It's a friendly way that . people in the United States greet each other. But "How are you? " is also a very unusual question. It's a question that often doesn't have an answer. The person who asks, "How are you?" hopes to hear the answer "Fine. ", even if the person's friend isn't fine. The reason is that "How are you? " isn't really a question and "Fine. " isn't, really an answer. They- are simply other ways of saying “Hello" or "Hi".

Sometimes, people also don't say exactly what they mean. For example, when someone asks "Do you agree?", the other person might be thinking, "No, I disagree. I think you're wrong. ” But it isn't very polite to disagree so strongly, so the other person might say "I'm not so sure. " It's a nicer way to say that you don't agree with someone.

People also don't say exactly what they are thinking when they finish talking with other people. For example, many talks over the phone finish when one person says "I have to go now. ” Often, the person who wants to hang up gives an excuse, “Someone's at the door. "Something is burning on the stove. " The excuse might be real, or it might not. Perhaps the person who wants to hang up simply doesn't want to talk any more, but it isn't polite to say that. The excuse is more polite, and it doesn't hurt the other person.

Whether they are greeting each other, talking about an idea, or finishing a talk, people often don't say exactly what they are thinking. It's an important way that people try to be nice to each other, and it's a part of the game of language.

26. When a person wants to disagree with someone, it is polite to say "­­­­­­­___________".

A. You're wrong. I disagree.    B. I'm not so sure.

C. I'm sure I disagree.    D. No, I disagree.

27. When a person says have to go now. Someone's at the door. " the person may be ________.

A. giving an excuse     B. hurting someone's feeling

C. talking to a person at the door  D. going to another place

28. One of the rules of the game of language is probably ____________.

A. "Always say what you mean. "

B. "Don't disagree with other people. "

C. "Never say exactly what you're thinking. "

D. "Be polite."

B

No one knows when the first kite was made. The first record of the kite was more than 2, 000 years ago in China. Han Xin, the leader of an army, wanted to bring down the king. He decided to dig a tunnel（隧道）into the king's palace. He flew a kite over the wall of the palace to make sure of the length（长度）of its. string（线）. In this way, he could determine how long the tunnel should be. His men in the tunnel took the kite string with them. When they reached the end of the string, they knew to dig.

People flew kites in Japan for hundreds of years. In the 1700s, kites were flown in autumn to give thanks for a good harvest. They were also flown to send good wishes to couples who had their first son. Today in Japan, kites are often flown as part of a celebration, such as the beginning of a new year. And kite festivals are held each year in many parts of the country. .

Kites have been used for scientific（科学的）. purposes in the western world. In 1752, Benjamin Franklin tied a key to a kite and flew it in a storm to find out that lightning（闪 电）was a form of electricity/In the 1890s, Lawrence Hargrave invented the box kite to test ideas about flight. From 1898 until 1933, the United States Weather Bureau used box kites to collect weather information. The Wright brothers also experimented（做试验）with , kites. What they learnt helped them make the first airplane flight in 1903.

Each different part of China has its own special forms of traditional art. These usually try to show the things that are important in life such as love, beauty and family. The most common things, from paper to clay to bamboo, are turned into objects of beauty.

According to Chinese history, sky lanterns were first used by Zhuge Kongming. He sent them out to ask for help when in trouble. Today, sky lanterns are used at festivals and other celebrations. They are made of bamboo and covered with paper. When the lanterns are lit, they slowly rise into the air like small hot-air balloons for all to see. They are seen as bright symbols of happiness and good wishes.

Paper cutting has been around for over 1, 500 years. Paper cutting sounds very easy but it can be difficult to do. The paper, usually red, is folded before it is cut with scissors. The most common pictures are. flowers, animals, and things about Chinese history. During the Spring. Festival, they are put on windows, doors and walls as symbols of wishes for good luck and a happy new year.

Chinese clay art is famous because the clay pieces are so small but they look very real. The pieces are usually cute children or lively characters from a Chinese fairy tale or historical story. The pieces are carefully shaped by hand from a very special kind of clay and then allowed to air-dry. After drying, they are fired at a very high heat. They are then polished and painted. It takes several weeks to complete everything. These small pieces of clay art show the love that all Chinese people have for life and beauty.

One possible version :

Dear Julie,

Thank you so much for your e-mail. I'm very happy to tell you about my school life. I ve changed a lot in the past three years. I used to be thin and shy, but now I'm much stronger and more outgoing than before. I used to be poor in English. I couldn't understand what the teacher said in class. I didn't know what to do. However, it's my teacher who told me not to be afraid of making mistakes. She said that watching English movies and listening to English songs are really helpful. With her help, I feel much better than before. I have made much progress in English. Now I enjoy studying here.

How about your school life? Please write to me soon.
