They believe that their family members, especially their parents, dont know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice. It is very important for teenagers to have one good friend or many friends. Even when they are not with their friends, they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the phone. This communication is very important in childrens growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members. However, parents often try to choose their childrens friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of “choice” is an interesting one. Have you ever thought of the following questions? Who choose your friends? Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you? Have you got a good friend your parents dont like? Your answers are welcome.25. Many teenagers think their _ know them better than their parents do. A. friends B. teachers C. brothers and sisters D. classmates 26.

Her heart was pretty bad in the beginning and she stayed in the hospital for a month. The first few years were very difficult because she was very sick. She had five operations before she was three years old. She had trouble walking ,playing with other children, and going to school. Although Gina couldnt laugh and talk, we all knew that she just needed love and care. Our parents wanted to take Gina to a special place in Florida where she could swim with dolphins. Gina was afraid of swimming with them because she had never been around dolphins before. We had also never traveled that far as a family. When we got to Florida, we saw where the dolphins lived. It was a place where kids with special needs like Gina could come and spend time .I thought it was going to be a vacation, but it wasnt . Gina had to work hard every day for a week. The trip was amazing .Gina laughed and clapped（拍手） when she saw the dolphin, and the dolphin splashed (濺起水花) when it saw Gina. They swam together all day. Gina was able to move her body more than she normally did at home. Mom and dad were proud of Gina .I was ,too.21We know from the text that Gina _Aexperienced five operations in a month.Bgot along well with other childrenC. stayed in the hospital before three .

They are listening ,speaking ,reading and writing. The most important thing you must remember is that if you want to improve your speaking and writing skills you should first master the skills of reading and listening. Read as much as you can. But your reading must be active. It means that you must think about the meaning of the sentences ,the meaning of the unfamiliar words ,etc.There is no need for you to pay much attention to grammar-or try to understand all the unfamiliar words you come across, but the fact you see them for the first time and recognize them whenever you see them, for example in other passages or books, is enough. It would be better to prepare yourself a notebook so you can write down the important words or sentences in it.As for listening, there are two choices: besides reading ,you can listen every day for about 30 minutes. You can only pay attention to your reading and become skillful at your reading ,then you can catch up on your listening. Since you have lots of inputs(輸入) in your mind, you can easily guess what the speaker is going to say. This never means that you should not practice listening .For listening you can listen to cartoons or some movies that are specially made for children. Their languages are easy. Or if you are good at listening, you can listen to VOA or BBC programs every day. Again the thing to remember is being active in listening and preferably(更好地) taking some notes.If you follow these pieces of advice , your speaking and writing will improve automatically(自動地)，and you can be sure that with a little effort they will become perfect.24According to the author , which should you improve first among the four skills?_AReading and listening BReading and writingCWriting and speaking DSpeaking and listening 25To improve your reading, when you read you should _.Alook up all the new words in the dictionary.Bthink about what you are reading activelyCspend more time studying grammarDcopy as many words and sentences as possible26The underlined words “come across” in paragraph3 probably be replaced by_Ameet by accident Bdiscover Cfind on purpose Dlook for27The author seems to agree with the view that _Aeveryone should listen to VOA or BBC programs every dayByou neednt practice listening if you keep in reading every dayCbeing good at reading is helpful in improving your listening Dyou should take notes of whatever you are hearingDNot long ago, a rock band called the Backstreet Boys made a big splash on the music scene. Young people everywhere loved their songs. One of the bands biggest fans was a young boy named Aaron Carter. Aaron had a special reason for taking such an interest in the band. Nick Carter, one of the Backstreet Boys, was Aarons big brother .Even before Nick joined the band in 1996,Aaron loved music. From the age of two ,Aaron spent most of his time listening to the radio. He sang along with his favorite songs. He made up dances to go with them. So Aarons family wasnt surprised when Aaron decided to follow Nick into the music world.Aaron got off to a fast start. At the age of seven, he joined a band in his hometown of Tampa, Florida. But after two years, Aaron didnt want to be part of the band anymore. He wanted to sing alone. Soon Brother Nick gave Aaron a helping hand. During a Backstreet Boys show in Germany, Aaron sang a song. He did an amazing job! After the show, someone from a record company asked Aaron to make an album. Of course, Aaron said yes.Since that day, Aaron has made lots of songs that sell well. His songs include “Crush on You” and “Im Gonna Miss You Forever”Aaron has worked hard to become a successful singer. But he never forgets how his brother gave him his start. As Aaron has said, “If Nick wasnt a singer, then I wouldnt be there”21.According to the passage ,Aaron_A. fell in love with music after Nick became famousB. joined the Backstreet Boys at the age of sevenC. was not allowed to sing by his familyD. was thankful for his brother Nicks support22.What does the underlined part “made a big splash ” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?_A.

The safest way to use your bike is for transportation, not play. Every year, about 300,000 kids go to the emergency department because of bike injuries, and at least 10,000kids have injuries that require a few days in the hospital. Some of these injuries are so serious that children die, usually from head injuries.A head injury can mean brain injury. Thats why its so important to wear your bike helmet(頭盔).Wearing one doesnt mean you can be reckless(不顧危險的),but a helmet will provide some protection for your face ,head , and brain in case you fall down. Your bike helmet should fit you properly. You shouldnt buy it too small or too big. Never wear a hat under your bike helmet. If you are unsure if your helmet fits you well, ask someone at a bike store.Wearing bright clothes also can help you stay safe. It helps other people on the road see you. And if they see you, that means they are less likely to run into you. Daytime riding is the safest so try to avoid riding your bike at dusk and later. But avoid wearing headphones because the music can distract(使分心)you from noises around you, such as a car blowing its horn(喇叭)so you can get out of the way.You need to check with your mom and dad about where youre allowed to ride your bike. You need to know how far youre allowed to go and whether you should ride on the sidewalk or in the street. Kids younger than 10 years should ride on the sidewalk and avoid the street. No matter where you ride ,you need to keep an eye out for cars and trucks. Even if youre just riding on the sidewalk ,a car may pull out of its driveway into the path of your bike. If you are crossing a busy road ,its best to walk your bike across the street.28.It can inferred from the first paragraph that _A. safety is the first when riding a bike B .riding a bike is for its use not for funC. bike accidents are common every yearD. children are forbidden to ride a bike 29.To ensure safety, when riding a bike we should _A. wear a hat and a bike helmetB. watch out for cars and trucks C. wear dark coats in the evening D. cross the crowded streets quickly30.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?_A.

Walking your bike in the street is the safest way F Sport is very popular in England. In other words lots of English people like the idea of sport. A lot watch sport on TV. But the number who take part in sport is quite small. On the whole English people prefer to be fat rather than thin.The most popular sport in England is football. Football is played on Saturday afternoon in most towns and the supporters of a certain team will travel from one end of the country to the other to see their team play. There are four divisions(級別) of the football league. Not surprisingly the best teams are in the first division. But the best supporters are often in the fourth division. You have to be a good supporter to watch the fourth division football! Many other sports are also played in England, such as golf, in which you try to knock a ball into a hole; basketball, in which you try to get a ball through a net; tennis, in which you try to hit a ball so that your opponent(對手) can not hit it. As you see, if the ball had not been invented, there would have been no sport. Actually, that is not quite true. Athletics(田徑) isnt played with a ball; nor horse racing. Perhaps that is why they are not as popular as football! 21. _ is the most popular sport in England. A. BasketballB. FootballC. Golf D. Tennis 22.

His wife was an able woman and did all the housework. When he came back, she took good care of him and he never did anything at home. So he had enough time when he had a holiday.

HIts such a happy-looking library, painted yellow, decorated with palm-tree stickers and sheltered from the Florida sun by its own roof. About the size of a microwave oven, its pedestrian-friendly, too, waiting for book lovers next to a sidewalk in Palm Beach Country Estates, along the northern boundary of Palm Beach Gardens.Its a library built with love.A year ago, shortly after Janey Henriksen saw a Brian Williams report about the Little Free Library organization, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit that aims to promote literacy and build a sense of community in a neighborhood by making books freely available, she announced to her family of four, “Thats what were going to do for our spring break!”Son Austin, now a 10th-grader, didnt see the point of building a library that resembles a mailbox. But Janey insisted, and husband Peter unwillingly got to work. The 51-year-old owner of a ship supply company modified a small wooden house that hed built years earlier for daughter Abbies toy horses, and made a door of glass.After adding the librarys final touches (裝點), the family hung a signboard on the front, instructing users to “take a book, return a book,” and making the Henriksen library, now one of several hundred like it nationwide and among more than 2,500 in the world, the only Little Free Library in Palm Beach County.They stocked it with 20 or so books theyd already read, a mix of science fiction, reference titles, novels and kids favorites. “I told them, keep in mind that you might not see it again,” said Janey, a stay-at-home mom.Since then, the collection keeps replenishing (補充) itself, thanks to ongoing donations from borrowers. The library now gets an average of five visits a day.The projects best payoff, says Peter, are the thank-you notes left behind. “We had no idea in the beginning that it would be so popular.” 30.
