Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it. 1 got blisters (水泡) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too. I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration (合作), and then I learned about the media. Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them. The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie (大 草 原 ), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students. As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school. He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project. That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too. 4. What seemed to be the TV directors' initial reaction to the garden? A. They were excited. B. They were surprised. C. They were worried. D. They were uninterested.5. What is special about the garden? A. Weeds were allowed to spread naturally. B. The grass grew faster than common grass. C. The seeds came from the plants of a prairie. D. Underground water was used for the plants. 6. What does the underlined word“that" refer to in the last paragraph? A. We got blisters on our hands. B. Our hard work was worthwhile. C. The garden would be famous. D. The project would be finished. 7. How did the author feel about the project? A. Annoyed. B. Curious. C. Proud. D. Regretful. C Heads up! Across the country, sports injuries are a safety concern for young athletes. Now, the American Medical Association (AMA) has a new set of guidelines aimed at protecting players from the danger of concussions - serious injuries caused by a blow to the head. “By raising awareness of the serious risks associated with concussions and ensuring that the appropriate guidelines are in place, we can reduce the number of young athletes who may return to the game too soon, which can. put their health at further risk," said AMA Board Member Jack Resneck Jr, M.D., in a statement. The policy recommends that young athletes who may have a concussion be taken off the field as soon as possible. Then, they are only to return to their sport with a doctor's written approval. The policy also sets age-specific rules for health care professionals and athletic organizations in evaluating and caring for concussions. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a concussion is a type of traumatic (创伤) brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This type of movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist inside the skull ( 颅 骨 ). It can damage brain cells and create chemical changes in the brain. The CDC says that between 1.6 million and 3.8 million traumatic brain injuries caused by sports and recreation-related activities occur in the U.S. every year. A study from the Center for Injury Research and Policy showed that as many as 40% of high school athletes return to playing before they should. The AMA'S new guidelines should help to bring those numbers down. 8. Why does the AMA set the new guidelines? A. To raise safety standards of sports. B. To protect athletes from concussions. C. To set rules for health care evaluation. D. To help players return to the game quickly. 9. What should young athletes who may have a concussion do? A. Avoid using the head. B. Leave the field forever. C. Get treatment in time. D. Switch to another sport. 10. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. What a concussion is. B. What causes damage to brain cells. C. How the CDC works. D. How a concussion can be prevented. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Rules for Safer Play B. Sports Injuries in the US C. Advice to Athletes D. New Policies for Doctors D Organic food is very popular. It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as non-organic food, but new parents and pet owners are willing to pay up to 200% more for organic food. However, there are people who think it is a waste of money. There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides (杀虫剂). In many countries organic foods have special labels. These guarantee that the products are natural. Some people think organic means locally grown. Originally this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large companies. There weren't enough organic ingredients (原料), such as grain and cattle. This made it difficult for many organic companies to stay in business. Today, many large companies have an organic line of products. Is organic food more nutritious? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumers believe it is. They think agricultural chemicals cause health problems such as cancer. Many health professionals disagree. Few studies prove that organic foods prevent health problems. Health specialists worry more about bacteria (病 毒 ), such as E.coli and salmonella. These can get into contact with organic and non- organic food. Doctors recommend washing produce very carefully. Handling meat carefully is important too. Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money? This is a matter of opinion. Whether it is healthier or not may require more research. However, organic consumers argue it is better to be safe than sorry. 12. What is probably the major concern of organic food consumers? A. Price. B. Safety. C. Freshness. D. Variety. 13. What is the doctors' suggestion? A. Grow your own food. B. Reduce the use of pesticides. C. Make sure the food is clean. D. Buy large companies' products. 14. Which of the following do most people agree on organic food? A. It tastes better. B. It is easier to grow. C. It contains more fat. D. It is more nutritious. 15. Where does this text probably come from? A. A recipe book. B. A chemistry paper. C. A medical report. D. A health magazine. 第二节(共 5 小题:每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项 中有两项 为多余选项。 The Hotel Wake-up Call Gets PersonalHere's a wake-up call: The hotel front desk will do one better than ringing your phone in the morning. They'll send an actual human being to your room. Don't worry. They won't come in and kiss you good morning.__ 16___ Never mind that most travelers nowadays have smart phones with built-in alarm clocks. __17___ Here are some examples. At the Wolcott Hotel, if a wake-up call is unanswered, they will send an employee to your door.

A study of 285 guests at Crown Plaza found that 53% considered a wake-up call very important. __20 __In the late 1980s, hotels turned to automated systems. Then all you'd get was a ring and silence.

As he had yellow spots on his eyes we called him Spotty. He would have been a stray ( 流 浪 ) dog, until he came to me.I was seven years old. My dad had just got a new job in Nasik. We had moved into a rented house. It was raining very heavily on the day we moved. It was a cold dark night. We had our meal and went to sleep. Somehow in the midnight I heard some strange sounds outside the main door. I gathered courage and looked out through the window and I was really amused with what I saw outside. There was a small puppy lying on an old doormat which my mother had put outside the door. It was wet and trembling. At first it was difficult to see the lite one. It was the yellow spots on its eyes that made me realize its presence. It was trying to get under the doormat to avoid the cold air outside and it had managed to get in as I could see only its head outside the doormat. Was it sick or injured? I felt pity for the poor soul. 1 went in and came out with an old towel. I went near the innocent one and held it in my hand and wiped the puppy till he had become dry. I took him into my room and made a bed for him with a woolen blanket and a small pillow. He seemed very healthy and comfortable in his new bed as he went to sleep immediately. The next morning, everyone in the family came to know about the unusual guest“Shall we keep him with us?" I questioned my mom. Like any other parents would, my parents first tally refused my idea but my sister and I convinced them to keep Spotty. Slowly Spotty got on with everyone and became one of the family members.

It is a happy and peaceful festival for family and friends to get together and a bond for people to deepen their feelings. In order to celebrate Spring Festival, we will stick couplets, set off firecrackers, have dinner, watch the Spring Festival Gala, and so on. There was a jubilant atmosphere everywhere. I’d like to invite you to China for the Spring Festival with us. 第二节： Days passed on and one evening when Spotty returned from his long walk, he appeared very exhausted. He came to my room and sat near me. It was then that I saw his hind leg was injured and was bleeding. I called out my mother and she quickly tied a bandage around his leg and gave him food to eat. I was very upset. But the next day, Spotty was up to his usual pranks though he limped a bit. After this incident my relation with Spotty became more intense. I really admired him a lot for his courage. Almost a year later, one midnight we heard Spotty barking breathlessly. We came out and saw that he was barking continuously heading somewhere. After some time Spotty became quiet. I patted him on his back and came inside. The next day morning, my heart skipped a beat when I didn’t see Spotty. I searched for him in each and every corner but he was nowhere. And this time he had gone and would never come back. I cried and waited for him. We waited for one long week. But there were no signs of him. Then one day my Dad got transferred to Mumbai. We shifted back to Mumbai. What would have happened to Spotty? Would he have died? These were the only questions in my mind, but they all remained unanswered forever.（仅供参考）
