Eventually，the daughter explained to her Mother about her friends circumstances.Her Mother immediately changed her mind and said，“Yes.”She also encouraged her daughter not to feel like she should secretly be friends with this girl and to feel proud of her friendship with her.36Which of the following about Catherine is NOT true?AHer mother is an immigrant.BHer father has no job.CHer mother works very hard.DShe is the daughter of the authors customer.37What made Catherine get a full scholarship?AHer refusal to accept help from the neighbors.BHer parents support for her plan.CThe help from her teachers and classmates.DHer excellent study and performance in music.38Catherine refused to attend the customers daughters party because _.Ashe didnt have nice clothes Bshe didnt like the customers daughterCshe had to play the piano at home that nightDshe just had a quarrel with the customers daughter39What is the BEST title for the passage?AA Poor Girl and Her FriendBA Bad Beginning Makes a Bad EndingCA Little Girl With a Big HeartDA Mothers Love Never ChangesBA flood occurs when water overflows.This can happen in many ways.The most common is when rivers or streams overflow their banks.Excessive rain，a ruptured(破裂的)dam，rapid ice melting in the mountains can overwhelm a river and send it spreading over the near land，called a floodplain(洪泛平原)Coastal flooding occurs when a large storm or tsunami causes the sea to move inland.Most floods take hours or even days to develop，giving residents enough time to prepare or leave.Others occur quickly，with little warning.These flash floods can be extremely dangerous，instantly turning a small stream into a thundering wall of water and sweeping everything in its path.Disaster experts classify floods according to their likelihood of occurring in a given time period.A hundredyear flood，for example，is an extremely large，destructive event that would theoretically be expected to happen only once every century.But this is a theoretical number.In reality，this classification means there is a onepercent chance that such a flood could happen in any given year.Over recent decades，possibly due to global climate change，hundredyear floods have been occurring worldwide with frightening regularity.Moving water has destructive power.When a river overflows its banks or the sea drives inland，structures poorly equipped to withstand the waters strength are no match.Bridges，houses，trees，and cars can be picked up and carried off.The erosive force of moving water can drag dirt from under a buildings foundation，causing it to crack and tumble.When floodwaters recede(退去)，affected areas are often covered by silt and mud.The water and landscape can be polluted with hazardous materials.Residents of flooded areas can be left without power or clean，drinking water.But flooding，particularly in river floodplains，is as natural as rain and has been occurring for millions of years.40Para.1 mainly tells us _.Awhat a floodplain isBhow a flood happensChow often a flood happensDwhy coastal flooding occurs41We can conclude from the text that _.Athe classification of floods is the most accurateBthe more often a flood occurs，the more dangerous it isCA hundredyear flood is sure to occur every hundred yearsDglobal climate change may increase the chance of a hundredyear flood42A cars being picked up by rushing water shows that _.Amoving water is powerfulBthe car must be poorly equippedCthe erosive force of water is destructiveDthe power of moving water has no match43What is most likely to be discussed next?ADisastrous floods in the world.BThe means of preventing floods.CThe connection between rains and floods.DFamous floodplains like the Mississippi Valley.CAbout ten years ago when I was an undergraduate in college，I was working as a practice student at my Universitys Museum of Natural History.One day while working at the cash register(收银机)in the gift shop，I saw an elderly couple come in with a little girl in a wheelchair.As I looked closer at this girl，I saw that she was kind of set on her chair.I then realized she had no arms or legs，just a head，neck and main body.She was wearing a little white dress with red dots. As the couple wheeled her up to me I was looking down at the register.I turned my head toward the girl and gave her a wink.As I took the money from her grandparents，I looked back at the girl，who was giving me the cutest，largest smile I have ever seen.All of a sudden her handicap was gone and all I saw was this beautiful girl，whose smile just melted me and almost instantly(即刻)gave me a completely new sense of what life is all about.She took me from a poor，unhappy college student and brought me into her world：a world of smiles，love and warmth.That was ten years ago.Im a successful business person now and whenever I get down and think about the troubles of the world，I think about that little girl and the remarkable(非凡的)lesson about life that she taught me.44Which of the following is TRUE about the writer?AHe graduated from Natural History University.BHe was good at natural history at university.CHe ran a gift shop in the university.DHe is a success in his business.45The underlined word“handicap”in Paragraph 4 probably means _.Asitting on a wheel chairBthe troubles of the worldCbeing unable to use parts of the bodyDthe ability to teach lessons about life46In the writers opinion，the little girl was not disabled at all because _.Ashe gave him an important lessonBshe had the cutest and biggest smileCshe had a healthier heart than many other peopleDshe offered him the courage in business47Which of the following can be the BEST title for this text?AA World of SmilesBThe Smile of a GirlCA Badly Disabled GirlDThe Secret of a BusinessmanDEver wonder why there are so many people polluting the earth？Ever say to yourself：Hey，I wish that I could do more to help the environment？Have you ever thought about trying to help the earth but never really did it？Well，here are some pretty easy and skillful ideas for that greenearth desire inside you.Turn off your computer.By leaving it on all day you are creating more CO2 than a regular passenger would，driving to and from work in one day.Ride your bike or carpool(合用汽车)Obviously，you are creating less CO2，which will help the ozone(臭氧)Make a garden.Even simply grow some plants in your kitchen，which will help produce more oxygen while eating up some of that evil CO2.Buy local groceries.It creates less impact on the environment.Besides，youre supporting your local farmers.Recycle.You had to see this coming.But you have no idea how much you are helping the environment by simply reusing a water bottle instead of buying a huge pack at the store.Dont run the water while brushing.It saves you money and helps the water resources.Open the curtains.Natural light is much prettier and it will keep the energy usage down.Rechargeable batteries.You have no idea how much it takes to get rid of batteries.Do yourself a favor.Save some money and some energy.48The underlined word“impact”in the fourth suggestion means _.Adisadvantage BrubbishCeffect Ddamage49Which of the following can BEST describe the function of the first paragraph?ALeadin.
