It was Christmas Eve when my elder sister and I decided to open our presents before our mom got home from work. She usually came home about an hour after we got home from school, which we thought was plenty of time to take a peek at the gifts under the tree.

My elder sister opened present after present while I was ordered to stand guard at the big window in our front room. Finally, when my sister’s curiosity was satisfied, we traded places.

After unwrapping a few presents, I found it faster to open one end of a present and peek inside.

“Cool! Mom and Dad got me head phones for my stereo!” I pulled the headphones out of the box and was about to put them on when my sister shouted, “Quick! Wrap it back up! Mom’s coming!”

I put the headphones back hurriedly in the box but my hands were shaking. My heart pounded harder as I tried to get the tape to stick. I had just finished burying the package with my headphones in it when my mother came into the front room. I jumped up and said, “Hi, Mom!” She smiled at me and said “Hi” back, but didn’t appear to suspect a thing. My heart began to slow as I took a deep breath. On Christmas morning, my sister and I smiled and gave award-winning performances when we opened our presents-again. “Headphones!” I shouted. “Thanks, it’s just what I wanted.” After everything had been opened, my sister and I looked at each other, and our eyes met. Our secret was safe, but somehow Christmas morning didn’t feel the same.

My sister and I never opened our Christmas presents early again. I don’t know if it was that opening our gifts for the second time just wasn’t as much fun as the first time, or if we came too close to getting caught and didn’t want to think about what our mother would have done to us.

24. What did the author and his sister do before their mother came back?

A. They opened Christmas presents in advance.

B. They put Christmas presents under the tree.

C. They bought and hid some Christmas presents.

D. They changed Christmas presents quickly.

B. A pleasant surprise was lost.

C. His request wasn’t satisfied.

D. The atmosphere was everywhere.

27. What can we infer about the author from the last paragraph?

A. He didn’t like the headphones.

B. He missed his Christmas present.

C. He wasn’t pleased with his mother.

D. He regretted what he had done.

C

A new underwater camera developed recently at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) could have many uses, including climate modeling.

More than 95 percent of the earth’s oceans have never been observed. This means we have seen less of our planet’s ocean than we have the far side of the moon or the surface of Mars. What is preventing widespread undersea exploration? The answer is the high cost of powering an underwater camera for a long time.

MIT researchers have taken a big step to solve this problem. They developed a new underwater camera. The camera is about 100, 000 times more energy-saving than other undersea cameras. It takes color photos, even in dark underwater environments, and sends images through the water. Most importantly, it can work for a very long time by powering itself.

The camera turns energy from sound waves traveling through water into electrical energy. It uses the electrical energy to power its imaging and communication equipment. After capturing images in the ocean, the camera also uses sound waves to send them to a receiver. The camera doesn’t need a power source, so it could run for weeks on end. And this allows scientists to search more parts of the ocean. The camera could also be used to capture images of ocean pollution.

“We can use the camera to help us learn what is happening to the climate. Personally, this is one of the most exciting things about the camera. We are building climate models, but we need to know more about the ocean. This technology could help us build more detailed climate models and better understand how climate change impacts the underwater world,” says Fadel Adib, director of the Signal Kinetics group in the MIT Media Lab.

28. Why does the author mention the moon and Mars?

A. To explain the difficulty in scientific research.

B. To indicate it is necessary to observe the ocean.

C. To correct a misunderstanding about the ocean.

D. To show our knowledge of the ocean is limited.

29. Why is the new camera considered a big step?

A. It takes over 100,000 photos.

B. It works for a long time underwater.

C. It costs little to build such a camera.

D. It functions well in dark environments.

30. What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph?

A. How the camera works.

B. What the camera looks like.

C. How the camera moves underwater.

D. Which parts of the ocean the camera works in.

31. What can the camera help scientists do according to Fadel Adib?

A. Prevent the ocean getting polluted.

B. Build more complete climate models.

C. Understand the reasons for climate change.

D. Get more people interested in the underwater world.

D

In the Chinese lunar calendar, san fu refers to the three 10-day periods that are said to be the hottest days of the year, which are called tou fu, zhong fu and mo fu. San fu is usually between mid-July and mid-August.

When san fu is mentioned, people can’t stop thinking of san futie, which is a bandage made of traditional Chinese herbal medicine. Those who have experienced traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) believe that receiving san futie during the hottest summer days is effective for coughs. The treatment is based on the TCM principle of yin and yang, which believes the balance of both elements in the body is important for good health. San futie contains a paste of herbs that are “hot” in nature.

Tou fu is the first stage of san fu. When the hot days come, people tend to lose their appetites. As the weather in Changsha, the capital of Hunan province, is hot with heavy rainfall in summer people there eat chicken especially a rooster during tou fu. They believe that the rooster is “yang” and can clear the damp(湿气). There is an old saying that goes “A rooster at the start of san fu, a healthy body the whole year.” Another favourite food during this stage is jiaozi, which is thought to refresh people’s feelings toward food. In fact, jiaozi is an all-time classic with 2,000 years of history.

The second stage of san fu is called zhong fu, which traditionally is a time for eating noodles because it is believed to help people sweat and remove internal heat.

When mo fu or the third fu arrives, it is still very hot at noon and the sun is very strong. People feel uncomfortable, so they call this period “Autumn Tiger”. During mo fu, people, especially those living in North China, customarily eat Chinese egg pancakes.

During san fu time when yang energy is at its prime, it’s also beneficial to have food which is “cold” in nature, like watermelon and cucumber, according to Chinese dietary therapy.

32. How does san futie work to treat coughs?

A. By using a kind of unique bandage.

B. By using materials for sweating.

C. By stopping the heat from coming into the body.

D. By keeping the balance of yin and yang.

33. What does the saying in the third paragraph prove?

A. San fu is a good time to sell roosters.

B. Meat from a rooster is delicious.

C. Eating roosters in San fu is good for health.

D. People who like eating can avoid catching a cold.

34. Why do Chinese people eat noodles in zhong fu?

A. To show the hope for a long life.

B. To let the heat in the body out.

C. To enjoy the family atmosphere.

D. To feel the moment of excitement.

35. What’s the best title of the text?

A. Customs of San fu

B. Products Sold in San fu

C. Ways to Learn About San fu

D. The Magical Medicine in San fu

Tips on How to Study Smarter

Having good study skills is always helpful. And it’s more important in the present situation, where online classes are growing. Students are likely to learn without a teacher or parent watching over. 　　　　36　　　　　 Here are some tips to develop good study skills.

· Practice, practice, practice! Musicians, practice their instruments. Athletes practice sports skills. The same should go for learning. 　　　　　37　　　　 In one study, students took practice tests over several weeks. On the final test, they scored better than those who studied in the normal way.

· Test yourself. Before big tests, you may often cover up the notes, and then try to recall them. This practice can help nearly everyone. You can put questions down on one side of the paper and the answers on the other side. 　　　　38　　　　　 Teachers often dig deeper. They don’t just ask shallow questions.

· Learn from mistakes. A secret of science: Mistakes help understanding. If you don’t find out what the answer is, you’re wasting your time. Checking the answers can make your study time more efficient. Check to see if you are right. You can then focus on what you get wrong. 　　　39　　　　　　

·　　　　40　　　　　 Students know some good study skills, yet many of you don’t actually do these things. Often you fail to plan ahead. So do make plans. And try to stick to a routine, too. For example, you can have a set time and place where you do schoolwork and study. And get enough sleep—not just the night before the test but for weeks or months on end.

1. Focus on your plan.
2. You can add more skills.
3. Make a plan and stick to it.
4. In fact, mistakes are actually a primary key to learning.
5. Try to test yourself in the way the teacher asks questions.
6. So you will have to manage your time and study more on your own.
7. If you want to be able to remember information, the best thing you can do is practice.

I once heard a person say, “Good friends are just like stars. You may not always see them, 　　　　41　　　　　 you know they are always there.” It perfectly describes my friendships with Angie and Raegan.

Angie and I became 　　　　42　　　　　 on the first day of kindergarten. A little unsure of myself, I asked my mother 　　　　43　　　　　 to make friends on the first day of school. She suggested I go up to another little girl and simply 　　　　44　　　　　 myself. So when I saw Angie cross the room, I 　　　　45　　　　　 right up to her and said, “Hi. My name is Missy. Would you be my friend?” Angie looked at me as if I’d lost my mind but she answered, “Sure.” Then the two of us were 　　　　46　　　　　. We’ve been friends ever since.

As hot and humid as Indiana’s summers are, Angie and I 　　　　47　　　　　 a swimming pool. Neither of us had one. Then Raegan came here. She 　　　　　48　　　　 into the house on the corner with a swimming pool! We wanted to have a swim there, so Angie came up with a “brilliant 　　　　49　　　　　”. We came to Raegan’s house and hung out on the street saying things like, “Whew! It’s 　　　　　50　　　　　 out here. Wish there was a place we could swim...” Raegan invited us kindly. We soon discovered that we liked Raegan more than her 　　　　　51　　　　　.

We became friends, and it has been that way 　　　　　52　　　　　. Through dance classes, cheerful camps, college courses, our marriages, and 　　　　　53　　　　　 in life——we’ve been forever friends.

Those friends are the most 　　　　　54　　　　　 gifts in my life. Friends come and friends go, but Angie and Raegan will 　　　　　55　　　　　 be in my life——just like the stars. I hope that you have such amazing friends in your life, too!

67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Cold December wind passed right through my worn coat. I might have wished to be at home, but those days it wasn’t much warmer there than it was standing at the bus stop. Mama had written a letter to the electric company explaining that we were late paying our bill because my sister was ill and Daddy had been laid off, but the power was cut off anyway. That’s why we were on our way into town to pay the bill in person.

I sat close to Buddy Earl for warmth on the bus when it finally showed up. The walk to the electric company office from the bus stop was only a couple of blocks, but it was a relief to get inside.

After settling the bill Mama brought us over to Rich’s department store. There was Santa in a big wooden chair. “You two go talk to him,” she said. “Just don’t expect to get all you ask for.” Buddy Earl and I joined the line of children waiting, and Mama sat on a bench nearby.

Then Santa started talking with us and asked us what we wanted. Santa reached in his pocket, pulled out a notepad and scribbled something with a pencil. “Is your mother with you two?” he asked. I pointed to the bench. “That’s our mama over there. She’s waiting for us to finish.” Santa lifted Buddy Earl off his knee. “Could you ask her to come and talk to me?” he said.

Later, Mama and Santa talked for a few minutes. Santa took a couple more notes. Then Mama brought us home. We didn’t dare ask about their private conversation. Christmas morning Mama and Daddy gathered us around our tree to give thanks for all we had. There were no toys from Santa under the tree. No presents at all, really. But that was okay, especially since we had electricity again. I felt pretty good as I took my seat at the kitchen table.

Paragraph 1:

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Paragraph2:

Mama and Daddy looked at each other, and she unpacked the food from the box.

67. Paragraph 1:

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Daddy opened it to a man I’d never seen before. He was holding a big box. “this is for you and your family,” he said, “Merry Christmas!” The man was gone before Daddy even had a chance to invite him in. Daddy put the box on the table and opened it up. Inside was an envelope and a lot of food! Daddy read the letter from the envelope. “May you be happy!”

Paragraph 2:

Mama and Daddy looked at each other, and she unpacked the food from the box. The first thing was a big can of pork and beans. Buddy Earl’s eyes went wide. “An angel came to our door today,” Mama said as she pulled out a big box of Sugar Crisp. With gratitude, we had a happy Christmas. Not long after the festival, Daddy was called back to work. My sister recovered from her illness. I even received a new coat, which was thicker than my old one and kept me warm.
