Every 30 seconds there is an earthquake. But don’t worry because most are so weak that they cannot be felt. Only a few big ones hurt people.

Many earthquakes happened in China, such as the big one in Sichuan on May 12, 2008. Thousands of people died in it. So it’s important to know what to do when it hits. Here are some tips (要点)on how to stay safe in an earthquake.

1. If you’re indoors during the earthquake, hide under a desk. Stay away from windows and anything that could fall on you.

2. If you are outdoors, move to a clear place. Try to be away from trees, signs, buildings and streetlights. Those could fall on you.

3. If you are in a shop and far from the door, don’t try to run outside and rush from exits. Everyone will be doing that and you’ll find it hard to get out. Don’t get into a lift during an earthquake. Just hide under some stong cover near you.

4. When an earthquake has ended, be careful because aftershocks(余震) may still happen . These are just as dangerous as the earthquake itself. So stay under the desk until you make sure it’s safe to get up.

5. If you are at home and smell gas, open the windows and get out of the building as quickly as possible. A gas line in your house may be broken. This could be very dangerous. ( ) 56. Most earthquakes are too_____ to hurt people.

A. strong B. weak C. dangerous.

( ) 57. If you are outside, it would be safe to ________.

A.go to a playground B.stay under a tree.C.stand by the window

( ) 58.If you are in a shop and far away from the door, you’d better___________

A.rush to the door right away B. run after the people quickly

C. hide yourself under a cover near you.

( ) 59. The best title of the passage is___________.

A. How dangerous the earthquake is.

B.How to be safe during an earthquake

C. Don’t be afraid of the earthquake

( ) 60. Which of the following is TURE according to the passage?

A.Most earthquakes are dangerous, so we must be very careful every day.

B.You’d better keep away from those things that may fall on you wherever you are.

C.If you smell gas at home, try to hide under the desk and don’t run outside quickly

(B)

Customs in different countries are different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host (主人), he always puts more food onto my plates. That often discomforts(使不舒服)me greatly. I have to eat the food though I don’t want to, because it is a bad manner in the west to leave one’s food on the plate. I notice that when a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he very often refuses the offer(提供)of food or drink though he wants to have them. This may be good manners in China, but it is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or make him accept something. They will ask for it. If not, they will say, “ No, thanks.” If an American dislikes the host’s beer, for example, he may say, “No, thanks. I would like other drinks. Coke-cola if you have it.” That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United states, you had better remember the famous saying, when in Rome, do as the Romans (罗马人) do.

根据短文内容判断正(T)误(F)。

( ) 61. From the passage, we can know that the Chinese are usually impolite.

( ) 62.When a foreigner has dinner with a Chinese host, he often feels uncomfortable .

( ) 63. A Chinese often refuses the offer of food or drink at a dinner party.

( ) 64.An American wants something to eat or drink at a dinner, he will get it himself

( ) 65. When you go to a new country, it’s polite to do as the Romans do.

(C)

Clothes are very important in our life. Different people wear different clothes. Now let’s listen to some people in France talking about clothes.

Hello, I’m Betty. I started working this year, so I’m able to get new clothes more often than before. I think what I look like is really important to me, so I spent much money on clothes. I like to wear bright colors and always dress up when I go to parties. I often buy all kinds of clothes and try to follow the latest fashion.

Hi, I’m Jack. I don’t have much to say about clothes. Clothes aren’t the thing I’m interested in. I know little about the way of dressing. In summer, I always wear a T-shirt or something else.

My name is Alice. I would like say that clothes must be comfortable and feel easy to put on. Sometimes I buy clothes in some small street markets — they are cheap there. I change the look of my clothes quite often — put some flowers on them or use different buttons, just for a change. They’ll look good all the time. I go shopping for clothes about once a month. I see something and fashionable and it fits me well, I would go for it and then…

Different people wear different clothes. They are very important in our life. Now some people in France are talking about clothes. Betty started 66______ a year ago. She 67_____much for clothes and she will try to 68______ the latest fashion. Jack is different from Betty. He doesn’t have much 69______ in dressing. In Alice’s opinion clothes should be comfortable first and then70_______

The computer is a useful machine. It can help people very much in daily life. For example, it can save much time to do the same work, and it can help people ro work out difficult problems that people can’t do easily. What’s more, it makes more convenient and quick to send and receive messages. In the new century, it seems that it’s more necessary for everyone to learn how to use computers even for the old. The computer is really an important tool in modern life.

Today, more and more families have computers. Parents buy computers for their children. They hope computers can help their children get good grades. Yet, many children use computers to play games, to watch videos, and to sing karaoke, instead of studying. So, many teachers and parents complain that computers can’t help their children to improve their studies but instead make them fall behind. Because of this, computers are locked in boxes by parents.

In some other countries even some scientists hate computers. They say that computers cause millions of people lose their jobs or cause them a lot of trouble.

Who knows what the computers of tomorrow will be like? Will they really make life better, or will they bring trouble to people? The students today will have to decide how to use the computers of tomorrow.

71. Computers are useless machine in the daily life, aren’t they?

You will have a lot of readings to do in this grade this year. You can do more of it in less time if you learn to read rapidly.

Perhaps you have been told about some habits which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly asked to break those habits which you might have.

Do you still have any of these bad habits? Check yourself by answering “yes” or “no” to these questions.

(1) Do you move your lips (嘴唇) when reading silently?

(2) Do you point to words with your finger as you read?

(3) Do you move your head from side to side as you read?

(4) Do you read one word at a time?

If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, start at once to break the habit. If you move your lips, hold your fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips while you are reading. Then if your lips move, you will know it and can stop them.

If you point to words, hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side with your right hand. Then you won’t have a free finger to use in pointing while reading. If you move your head, place your chin(下巴)in one hand and hold your head still(静止不动的).

If you read no more than one or two at a time, you need to work very

hard in learning to take in (吸收) more words at each glance (一瞥) as your eyes travel across the lines of words.

Even if you do rather fast now, you can learn to read even faster. As you probably have been told, the secret of fast reading is to take in whole groups of words at each glance. Read in thought and force (迫使) your eyes along the lines of words as fast as you can make them go. Anyone who practices doing these things will be able to read faster.

( )6.You may hold your finger over your lips while reading so as

_________.

A. to tell others to be silent.

B. to feel whether your lips move or not.

C. to hold a piece of paper between them.

D.to eat it.

( )7. When you read, ______.

A. don’t keep your head still.

B. don’t hold your books with your hands

C. don’t use your finger to point to words.

D.don't read at home.

( )8.If you learn to read fast, _____.

A. you can read more in less time.

B. you can write faster

C. you can understand better

D.you can be a good teacher

( )9.You must ____ those bad habits that we are talking about in this

reading.

A. remember B. have C.like D.get rid of(改掉)

( )10.This reading is mainly about_______.

A. the way of reading fast

B. the importance of fast reading

C. the bad habits in reading

D.the bad and good work

Yesterday morning when I opened my eyes, it was half past six already. I got up quickly and ran to the bus stop without having breakfast. As soon as I got on the bus, it started raining. “I am sure I can get to the school on time,” I thought. Suddenly, the bus stopped. There was something wrong with the bus. The driver asked us to wait for another one.

“I can’t wait. The school is not far. I can run to school,” I thought. Then I began to run, but it began to rain hard.

I reached the classroom, but I was all wet. The Math teacher, Mr. Li, was in the classroom. We were afraid of him and I didn’t like his Math lessons. I said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Li. I’m late.”

“It’s you again, Wang Bin. I told you not to be late, but you…” He suddenly stopped and looked at my wet clothes. Then he took off his jacket and gave it to me.

“Now, take off your wet coat and put this one on,” he said kindly.

Every 30 seconds there is an earthquake. But don’t worry because most are so weak that they cannot be felt. Only a few big ones hurt people.

Many earthquakes happened in China, such as the big one in Sichuan on May 12, 2008. Thousands of people died in it. So it’s important to know what to do when it hits. Here are some tips (要点)on how to stay safe in an earthquake.

1. If you’re indoors during the earthquake, hide under a desk. Stay away from windows and anything that could fall on you.

2. If you are outdoors, move to a clear place. Try to be away from trees, signs, buildings and streetlights. Those could fall on you.

3. If you are in a shop and far from the door, don’t try to run outside and rush from exits. Everyone will be doing that and you’ll find it hard to get out. Don’t get into a lift during an earthquake. Just hide under some stong cover near you.

4. When an earthquake has ended, be careful because aftershocks(余震) may still happen . These are just as dangerous as the earthquake itself. So stay under the desk until you make sure it’s safe to get up.

5. If you are at home and smell gas, open the windows and get out of the building as quickly as possible. A gas line in your house may be broken. This could be very dangerous. ( ) 56. Most earthquakes are too_____ to hurt people.

A. strong B. weak C. dangerous.

( ) 57. If you are outside, it would be safe to ________.

A.go to a playground B.stay under a tree.C.stand by the window

( ) 58.If you are in a shop and far away from the door, you’d better___________

A.rush to the door right away B. run after the people quickly

C. hide yourself under a cover near you.

( ) 59. The best title of the passage is___________.

A. How dangerous the earthquake is.

B.How to be safe during an earthquake

C. Don’t be afraid of the earthquake

( ) 60. Which of the following is TURE according to the passage?

A.Most earthquakes are dangerous, so we must be very careful every day.

B.You’d better keep away from those things that may fall on you wherever you are.

C.If you smell gas at home, try to hide under the desk and don’t run outside quickly

(B)

Customs in different countries are different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host (主人), he always puts more food onto my plates. That often discomforts(使不舒服)me greatly. I have to eat the food though I don’t want to, because it is a bad manner in the west to leave one’s food on the plate. I notice that when a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he very often refuses the offer(提供)of food or drink though he wants to have them. This may be good manners in China, but it is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or make him accept something. They will ask for it. If not, they will say, “ No, thanks.” If an American dislikes the host’s beer, for example, he may say, “No, thanks. I would like other drinks. Coke-cola if you have it.” That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United states, you had better remember the famous saying, when in Rome, do as the Romans (罗马人) do.

Hello, I’m Betty. I started working this year, so I’m able to get new clothes more often than before. I think what I look like is really important to me, so I spent much money on clothes. I like to wear bright colors and always dress up when I go to parties. I often buy all kinds of clothes and try to follow the latest fashion.

Hi, I’m Jack. I don’t have much to say about clothes. Clothes aren’t the thing I’m interested in. I know little about the way of dressing. In summer, I always wear a T-shirt or something else.

My name is Alice. I would like say that clothes must be comfortable and feel easy to put on. Sometimes I buy clothes in some small street markets — they are cheap there. I change the look of my clothes quite often — put some flowers on them or use different buttons, just for a change. They’ll look good all the time. I go shopping for clothes about once a month. I see something and fashionable and it fits me well, I would go for it and then…

The computer is a useful machine. It can help people very much in daily life. For example, it can save much time to do the same work, and it can help people ro work out difficult problems that people can’t do easily. What’s more, it makes more convenient and quick to send and receive messages. In the new century, it seems that it’s more necessary for everyone to learn how to use computers even for the old. The computer is really an important tool in modern life.

Today, more and more families have computers. Parents buy computers for their children. They hope computers can help their children get good grades. Yet, many children use computers to play games, to watch videos, and to sing karaoke, instead of studying. So, many teachers and parents complain that computers can’t help their children to improve their studies but instead make them fall behind. Because of this, computers are locked in boxes by parents.

In some other countries even some scientists hate computers. They say that computers cause millions of people lose their jobs or cause them a lot of trouble.

Who knows what the computers of tomorrow will be like? Will they really make life better, or will they bring trouble to people? The students today will have to decide how to use the computers of tomorrow.

Every 30 seconds there is an earthquake. But don’t worry because most are so weak that they cannot be felt. Only a few big ones hurt people.

Many earthquakes happened in China, such as the big one in Sichuan on May 12, 2008. Thousands of people died in it. So it’s important to know what to do when it hits. Here are some tips (要点)on how to stay safe in an earthquake.

1. If you’re indoors during the earthquake, hide under a desk. Stay away from windows and anything that could fall on you.

2. If you are outdoors, move to a clear place. Try to be away from trees, signs, buildings and streetlights. Those could fall on you.

3. If you are in a shop and far from the door, don’t try to run outside and rush from exits. Everyone will be doing that and you’ll find it hard to get out. Don’t get into a lift during an earthquake. Just hide under some stong cover near you.

4. When an earthquake has ended, be careful because aftershocks(余震) may still happen . These are just as dangerous as the earthquake itself. So stay under the desk until you make sure it’s safe to get up.

5. If you are at home and smell gas, open the windows and get out of the building as quickly as possible. A gas line in your house may be broken. This could be very dangerous. ( ) 56. Most earthquakes are too_____ to hurt people.

A. strong B. weak C. dangerous.

( ) 57. If you are outside, it would be safe to ________.

A.go to a playground B.stay under a tree.C.stand by the window

( ) 58.If you are in a shop and far away from the door, you’d better___________

A.rush to the door right away B. run after the people quickly

C. hide yourself under a cover near you.

( ) 59. The best title of the passage is___________.

A. How dangerous the earthquake is.

B.How to be safe during an earthquake

C. Don’t be afraid of the earthquake

( ) 60. Which of the following is TURE according to the passage?

A.Most earthquakes are dangerous, so we must be very careful every day.

B.You’d better keep away from those things that may fall on you wherever you are.

C.If you smell gas at home, try to hide under the desk and don’t run outside quickly

(B)

Customs in different countries are different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host (主人), he always puts more food onto my plates. That often discomforts(使不舒服)me greatly. I have to eat the food though I don’t want to, because it is a bad manner in the west to leave one’s food on the plate. I notice that when a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he very often refuses the offer(提供)of food or drink though he wants to have them. This may be good manners in China, but it is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or make him accept something. They will ask for it. If not, they will say, “ No, thanks.” If an American dislikes the host’s beer, for example, he may say, “No, thanks. I would like other drinks. Coke-cola if you have it.” That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United states, you had better remember the famous saying, when in Rome, do as the Romans (罗马人) do.

You will have a lot of readings to do in this grade this year. You can do more of it in less time if you learn to read rapidly.

Perhaps you have been told about some habits which keep a person from reading fast and have been strongly asked to break those habits which you might have.

Do you still have any of these bad habits? Check yourself by answering “yes” or “no” to these questions.

(1) Do you move your lips (嘴唇) when reading silently?

(2) Do you point to words with your finger as you read?

(3) Do you move your head from side to side as you read?

(4) Do you read one word at a time?

If you answer “yes” to any of these questions, start at once to break the habit. If you move your lips, hold your fingers over them, or hold a piece of paper between your lips while you are reading. Then if your lips move, you will know it and can stop them.

If you point to words, hold the two sides of your book, one side with your left hand, the other side with your right hand. Then you won’t have a free finger to use in pointing while reading. If you move your head, place your chin(下巴)in one hand and hold your head still(静止不动的).

If you read no more than one or two at a time, you need to work very

hard in learning to take in (吸收) more words at each glance (一瞥) as your eyes travel across the lines of words.

Even if you do rather fast now, you can learn to read even faster. As you probably have been told, the secret of fast reading is to take in whole groups of words at each glance. Read in thought and force (迫使) your eyes along the lines of words as fast as you can make them go. Anyone who practices doing these things will be able to read faster.

( )6.You may hold your finger over your lips while reading so as

_________.

A. to tell others to be silent.

B. to feel whether your lips move or not.

C. to hold a piece of paper between them.

D.to eat it.

( )7. When you read, ______.

A. don’t keep your head still.

B. don’t hold your books with your hands

C. don’t use your finger to point to words.

D.don't read at home.

( )8.If you learn to read fast, _____.

A. you can read more in less time.

B. you can write faster

C. you can understand better

D.you can be a good teacher

( )9.You must ____ those bad habits that we are talking about in this

reading.

A. remember B. have C.like D.get rid of(改掉)

( )10.This reading is mainly about_______.

A. the way of reading fast

B. the importance of fast reading

C. the bad habits in reading

D.the bad and good work

Every 30 seconds there is an earthquake. But don’t worry because most are so weak that they cannot be felt. Only a few big ones hurt people.

Many earthquakes happened in China, such as the big one in Sichuan on May 12, 2008. Thousands of people died in it. So it’s important to know what to do when it hits. Here are some tips (要点)on how to stay safe in an earthquake.

1. If you’re indoors during the earthquake, hide under a desk. Stay away from windows and anything that could fall on you.

2. If you are outdoors, move to a clear place. Try to be away from trees, signs, buildings and streetlights. Those could fall on you.

3. If you are in a shop and far from the door, don’t try to run outside and rush from exits. Everyone will be doing that and you’ll find it hard to get out. Don’t get into a lift during an earthquake. Just hide under some stong cover near you.

4. When an earthquake has ended, be careful because aftershocks(余震) may still happen . These are just as dangerous as the earthquake itself. So stay under the desk until you make sure it’s safe to get up.

5. If you are at home and smell gas, open the windows and get out of the building as quickly as possible. A gas line in your house may be broken. This could be very dangerous. ( ) 56. Most earthquakes are too_____ to hurt people.

A. strong B. weak C. dangerous.

Customs in different countries are different. If I have dinner with a Chinese host (主人), he always puts more food onto my plates. That often discomforts(使不舒服)me greatly. I have to eat the food though I don’t want to, because it is a bad manner in the west to leave one’s food on the plate. I notice that when a Chinese sits at an American’s dinner party, he very often refuses the offer(提供)of food or drink though he wants to have them. This may be good manners in China, but it is not in the West at all. In the United States, it is impolite to keep asking someone again and again or make him accept something. They will ask for it. If not, they will say, “ No, thanks.” If an American dislikes the host’s beer, for example, he may say, “No, thanks. I would like other drinks. Coke-cola if you have it.” That is what an American will do. So when you go to the United states, you had better remember the famous saying, when in Rome, do as the Romans (罗马人) do.

I like to wear bright colors and always dress up when I go to parties. I often buy all kinds of clothes and try to follow the latest fashion.

Hi, I’m Jack. I don’t have much to say about clothes. Clothes aren’t the thing I’m interested in. I know little about the way of dressing. In summer, I always wear a T-shirt or something else.

My name is Alice. I would like say that clothes must be comfortable and feel easy to put on. Sometimes I buy clothes in some small street markets — they are cheap there. I change the look of my clothes quite often — put some flowers on them or use different buttons, just for a change. They’ll look good all the time. I go shopping for clothes about once a month. I see something and fashionable and it fits me well, I would go for it and then…

The computer is a useful machine. It can help people very much in daily life. For example, it can save much time to do the same work, and it can help people ro work out difficult problems that people can’t do easily. What’s more, it makes more convenient and quick to send and receive messages. In the new century, it seems that it’s more necessary for everyone to learn how to use computers even for the old. The computer is really an important tool in modern life.

Today, more and more families have computers. Parents buy computers for their children. They hope computers can help their children get good grades. Yet, many children use computers to play games, to watch videos, and to sing karaoke, instead of studying. So, many teachers and parents complain that computers can’t help their children to improve their studies but instead make them fall behind. Because of this, computers are locked in boxes by parents.

In some other countries even some scientists hate computers. They say that computers cause millions of people lose their jobs or cause them a lot of trouble.

Who knows what the computers of tomorrow will be like? Will they really make life better, or will they bring trouble to people? The students today will have to decide how to use the computers of tomorrow.
