July 21st. 2007 was a typical English summer’s day — it rained for 24 hours ! As usual, I rushed home from work at midday to check on the house. Nothing was amiss. By the time I left work at 5pm. However, the road into our village was flooded. Our house had never been flooded but, as I opened the front door. a wave of waters greeted me. Thank God the kids weren’t with me, because the house was 5 feet deep in water. We lost everything downstairs. And the plaster had to be torn off the wall’s ceilings pulled down.
At first we tried to push on through. We didn’t want to move the children out of home. so we camped upstairs. We put a sheet of plastic across the floor to protect us from the damp. But after three months, we felt very sick, so we move to a wooden house in a park. The house was small. but at first we were all just delighted to be in a new place. Unfortunately, things took longer than expected and we were there for 10 months. The life there was inconvenient. What surprised me most was how much I missed being part of a community（社区）. We had lived in a friendly village with good neighbors, and I’d never thought how much I，I’d miss that.
Although our situation was very bad, it’s difficult to feel too sorry for yourself when you look at what’s happening elsewhere. I watched a news report about floods in Northern India and thought. “We didn’t have a straw hut（茅草房）that was for Christmas. But I can’t wait — I’m going to throw a party for our friends in the village to say thanks for their support. This year, I won’t need any gifts — living away from home for months has made me realize how little we actually need or miss all our possessions. Although we are replacing things, there’s really no rush — we have our home back. and that’s the main thing.
1.What does the underlined word “amiss” in the first paragraph mean ？
A. Wrong. B. Missing. C. Right. D. Found
2.It can be inferred from the text that the author .
A. was sick of staying upstairs
B. cared much about her children
C. could not stand living in a wooden house
D．did not deal well with her family affairs during the flood
3.Why does the author say that they were lucky in the third paragraph ?
A. Because her situation was not serious.
B. Because many other paces were flooded.
C. Because she had been to Northern India.
D. Because some others suffered even more.
4.What does the author mainly want to express by telling her story?
A. She valued human feelings more than before.
B. She realized she almost didn’t need possession.
C. She found Christmas gifts no longer badly needed.
D. She thought her own home was the most important.

In the summer of 1978 an English farmer was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered that some of his wheat was lying flat on the ground. The flattened wheat formed a circle about six meters across. Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat. The five circles were in a formation like five dots. During the following years, farmers in England found the strange circles in their fields more and more often.
The circles are called “crop circles” because they appear in the fields of grain ― usually wheat or corn. The grain in the circles lies flat on the ground but is never broken; it continues to grow, and farmers can later harvest it. Farmers always discover the crop circles in the morning, so the circles probably form at night. They appear only in the months from May to September.
At first, people thought that the circles were a hoax. Probably young people were making them as a joke, or farmers were making them to attract tourists. To prove that the circles were a hoax, people tried to make circles exactly like the ones that farmers had found. They couldn’t do it. They couldn’t enter a field of grain without leaving tracks, and they couldn’t flatten the grain without breaking it.
Many people believe that beings from outer space are making the circles to communicate with us from far away and that the crop circles are messages from them.
Scientists who have studied the crop circles suggested several possibilities. Some scientists say that a downward rush of wind leads to the formation of the circles — the same downward lash of air that sometimes causes an airplane to crash. Other scientists say that forces within the earth cause the circles to appear. There is one problem with all these scientific explanations: crop circles often appear in formations, like the five-dot formation. It is hard to believe that any natural force could form those.
1.In the summer of 1978, an English farmer discovered in his field that ______.
A. some of his wheat had been damaged
B. some of his wheat had fallen onto the ground
C. his grain was growing up in circles
D. his grain was moved into several circles
2.The underlined word "hoax" in Paragraph 3 is probably ______.
A. a research on the force of winds
B. a special way to plant crops
C. an experiment for the protection of crops
D. an attempt made to fool people
3.Which of the following may prove that the crop circles are not made by man?
A. The farmers couldn’t step out of the field.
B. The farmers couldn’t make the circles round.
C. The farmers couldn’t leave without footprints.
D. The farmers couldn’t keep the wheat straight up.
4.One explanation given by scientists for the crop circles is that they are made by _____.
A. airplane crashes B. air movement
C. unknown flying objects D. new farming techniques

This summer, I, along with several other international students, traveled to the region of Berounka and found a lovely camping place beside the river. At night, I shared a tent with three girls from Brazil, the United States, and Belgium. 1. I didn't know what to bring, just my sleeping bag and some warm clothes. And with the light of the campfire burning all night, I was unable to sleep until 1 o'clock.
Later that morning, when we were all on the raft and ready to leave, I was told to sit in the middle because I'd never used a paddle before. 2.Once we set off, my US friend showed me how to use a paddle. I found it wasn't so hard—it just made my arms really tired. I listened carefully to what my friends were saying, at the same time looking around at the beautiful scenery. 3. Suddenly, the raft turned over. and we all fell into the water. My friends managed to reach the other side of the river quickly, but they couldn't catch me. I felt panicked but wanted to get out of the water as soon as I could.4..
At last, I finally made it to a rock near the riverbank. I was so delighted and asked my friends to take a photo of me.5.From then on, I tried rafting almost every summer. My experience taught me that we should try new things and get to know new people, even if it means facing danger.
A. I'd never camped outside before.
B. I heard my friends cheering me up loudly.
C. I shared what I brought with my three roommates.
D. So I grasped my paddle and swam stoutly to my friends.
E. I held on tightly to my paddle, not daring to move one bit.
F. I had fallen into the river, but I fell in love with this sport too.
G. Tree-filled mountains, the clear blue sky, and wooden cottages surrounded me.

Dear Brown,
Last summer I take a part-time job in the International Camp for children. I have been told one more worker will be needed this year and I think you are fit to it. How about join us? The camp is at the foot of a small hill close to a river. It is so a beautiful place! We can hear birds singing happy all around. Everybody sleeps in tents, that is very exciting. You usually work only five hours a day, so we will have plenty of spare time visit the area and have a fun. I am sure it will be a unforgettable experience. If you show much interests in it, reply to me soon.
