Are you fond of tomatoes？ Bunol，a town in Spain，held its yearly tomato festival on the last Wednesday of August．Thousands and thousands of people made their way from all corners of the world to fight in it，the world’s biggest food fight．Tons of fully-grown tomatoes were thrown in the streets．
No one knows exactly how this event started．Maybe it came from a local food fight between friends，or a joke that was played on a bad musician．
On Wednesday，at 11am，the fight began．A cannon(大炮) shot was fired to start the fight．At first，people fought one another，but slowly they began to fight in groups．After exactly one hour，the fight ended when the cannon shot was fired once more．At this point，no more tomatoes could be thrown．
Those who attend this event are encouraged to wear protective glasses．And they must press the tomatoes before throwing so that they won’t hurt others．Another rule is that no one is allowed to take anything — such as a glass bottle — into the fight．Although it is forbidden to tear(扯破) another person’s clothing，the crowd seems to tear the shirt of any clothed person，whether they are men or women．
Fire trucks are used to clean the streets after the fight with water provided from a Roman channel (海峡)．The government seems more concerned with cleaning up the town than the visitors，and people go to the Bunol River for a wash．
1.When the cannon shot is fired the second time，____．
A．people start to throw tomatoes
B．people start to fight in groups
C．the whole tomato fight is over
D．the fight has lasted for two hours
2.Which is NOT one of the rules of the tomato fight？
A．People can’t use glass bottles．
B．People must wear protective glasses．
C．It isn’t allowed to tear other people’s clothes．
D．Tomatoes should be pressed before they are thrown．
3.After the tomato fight，the town government ____．
A．provides water to the people
B．cleans up the streets with fire trucks
C．takes people to the Bunol River
D．holds other activities about tomatoes

Mrs. Jones was very fond of singing. She had a good 16 , except that some of her high notes tended to sound like a gate, which someone had forgotten to 17 . Mrs. Jones was very conscious of this 18 , and took every 19 she could find to practice these high 20 . As she lived in a small house where she could not practice without 21 the rest of the family, she usually went for long walks along the country roads whenever she had time, and practiced her high notes there. Every time she heard a 22 or a person coming along the 23 , she stopped and 24 until she could no longer be heard before she started practicing again, because she was a 25 person, and because she was sensitive about those high notes.
One afternoon, however, a fast, open car came up behind her so 26 and so fast that she did not hear it until it was only a few yards from her. She was singing some of her highest and most 27 notes at the time, and as the car passed her, she saw an anxious 28 suddenly come over its driver’s face. He put his brakes on violently, and as soon as the car stopped, jumped out and began to 29 all his tires carefully.
Mrs. Jones did not dare to tell him what the noise he had heard had really been, so he got back into his car and drove off as 30 as he had been when he stopped.

If you are studying at school, do be a polite and clever student! There is no excuse for not doing your assignments (作业). If you can’t come to school, you should call your teacher or your classmate and ask about homework. It is your responsibility to find out what homework you have missed. It is not the teacher’s job to remind you of the missed assignments.
You must not be absent on a test day. If you are seriously ill, call and let the teacher know you will not be there for the test. If your teacher allows a make-up test, you should take the test again within one or two days after you return to class. Serious illness is the only reason for missing a test.
Be on time! It is impolite to be late. Also, it bothers other students. If you must come in late, be sure to do it quietly. Have your books and papers out of your bag before you come into the room. Then go to your seat and sit down quietly. In the USA, it is not necessary to knock before you enter the classroom. Most teachers will give you a low grade if you are often late.
In America, you should call your teacher by his or her last name instead of “teacher”. Also you should use Mr. Miss, Ms or Mrs. before the last name (such as Mrs. Smith or Mr. Jones). This is polite. The teacher will tell you the title that he or she likes. It is impolite in the USA to eat, drink or chew gum during class. Don’t do these until the break. Also, removing your shoes in the classroom is not polite.
1.What should you do if you miss a class?
A. Give an excuse for missing the assignments.
B. Tell the teacher you can’t come to school or do the assignments.
C. Call your teacher or your classmate to find out what assignments were given.
D. Ask your teacher to remind you of the missed assignments.
2.What does “a make-up test” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. A test for all students.
B. A test for the students missing the last test.
C. A test for the students with low scores.
D. A test for whoever missed the last test.
3.When can a student miss a test according to the passage?
A. When he/she is late for the test.
B. When he/she doesn’t want to have the test.
C. When he/she failed another test.
D. When he/she is really sick.
4.In America, if your teacher’s name is Susan Black, what should you call her politely?

Are you a man or a mouse? When people ask this question they want to know 36 you think you are a 37 person or a coward (懦夫). But you will never really know the answer to this question 38 you are tested in real life. Some people 39 they are brave but when they come face to face with real 40 , they act like cowards. Others think of themselves as cowards, but when they meet danger, they act like 41 .
Lenny had always thought of himself as a 42 person. He got worried before examinations. He worried about his job and health. All he wanted in life was to be safe and healthy. 43 , on January 15th, 2002, a plane crashed into the Potomac River in Washington. Lenny went to the river to see what was happening.

Seventy-eight people died that day. Thanks to Lenny, it was not 48 .
When you are in a very 49 situation and feel afraid, the body automatically produces a chemical in the blood. The chemical is called adrenalin. 50 adrenalin in the blood system, you actually feel stronger and stronger and are 51 to fight or run away. However, when you are absolutely terrified, the body can produce too much adrenalin. When this 52 , the muscles become very hard and you find you 53 at all. You are then paralyzed (使无能为力) with fear. This is 54 when we are very frightened, we sometimes say we’re “petrified”. This word comes from the Greek word “petros”, which means “stone”. We are 55 frightened that we become stonelike.
36. A. how B. neither C. whether D. either
37. A. brave B. real C. hard D. certain
38. A. when B. until C. after D. once

阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
They say there are three ways to experience the Grand Canyon; on foot, on mules（骡子）or by air. We chose the first. Up early, my husband and I and our three children couldn’t wait to get started. We decided to walk along a lovely path named Bright Angel Trail.
As we set out, I was shocked at how narrow the path was. And I couldn’t help noticing that the other tourists weren’t like us. They had heavy backpacks, water bottles, and hats. But as usual we were dressed, As the sun rose higher, Arizona’s famous heat seemed to roast us. There was no shade and our legs were aching. We decided to go back, with the girl on my back and the boys far behind. By the time we finally got back, our legs were like jelly.
The next day, after we’d had a long rest and a good breakfast, we were ready for another view of the Canyon – by air. After our last walk, this would be the easiest thing in the world.
We called to each other excitedly as the plane took off and circled around the Canyon. But the smiles on our faces disappeared as the pilot tossed（翻转）the plane around, pretending he was going to hit the ground. I shouted, “STOP, TAKE US BACK!” When we finally arrived back on land, once again our legs were like jelly. We hardly spoke as we drove back.
As I said, there are three ways to view the Grand Canyon. We never tried the mules, but personally I’d suggest a fourth: buy yourself a good magazine like National Geographic. That way, you can see the Canyon, without fear or tiredness.
1. Which of the following is true according to the second paragraph?
A. They made a careful preparation before the trip.
B. The children were more joyful than their parents.
C. Bright Angel Trail was not as lovely as they expected.
D. The summer heat prevented them from enjoying the view.
2. The underlined expression “Our legs were like jelly” probably means _____ .
A. we were weak B. we were unhappy
C. we were dissatisfied D. we were disappointed
3. Which of the following best describes their Canyon trip by air?
A. It proved to be frightening. B. It was more comfortable.
C. It turned out to be exciting. D. It made each of them tired.
4. We can infer from the passage that _____.
A. experiencing the Canyon on mules would be the best way.
B. one needs to dress less when visiting the Grand Canyon.
C. the writer was not serious when she made the suggestion.
D. the whole family narrowly escaped from the air accident.

Today，we are told，children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air．Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV—they seem to be living in a virtual world．They have lost touch with nature．But now 400 organizations in the UK，from playgroups to the National Health Service，are encouraging children to have some “wild time”．They want kids to exchange at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time to play outside．Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city，they can go on adventures in the garden or the park．
Children often need a helping hand from mum and dad．They need to be shown what to do and where to go．Andy Simpson from National Health Service says，“We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development，independence and creativity，by giving wild time”．
So in spite of the complicated world that young people grow up in now，it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need．David Bond from Project Wild Thing says，“We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine，freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted”．
This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe，like me，and it has made you think about putting on your boots, getting outdoors and recalling your childhood．There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!
1.What is the best title of the text?
A. Adventures of children
B. Kinds of wild time
C. More space for children
D. Wild time for children
2.Children are encouraged to do the following activities except .
A. building dens B. climbing trees
C. watching TV D. playing hide and seek
3.According to Andy Simpson，we know that .
A. wild time is good for children
B. wild time is hard to design
C. parents know the importance of wild time
D. parents like keeping their children indoors
4. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

“In fact, it was your playing gave me a meaningful autumn,” I answered, “Let's be friends.”
The girl smiled, and so did I.
