Many things can make you angry. When your teacher gives you too much homework, when your team loses an important game, when a friend borrows your favorite thing and then breaks it, you may get really angry.Usually, your body will tell you when you are angry. For example, you breathe faster, your face turns red, and you may want to break something or hit someone, but sometimes, you hide your anger. For example, you may hide it in your heart. The problem is that if you do this, you may get a headache or your stomach may hurt.In fact, its not good to hide your anger, and its normal for you to get angry sometimes. But anger must be let out in the right way, without hurting others or yourself.When you get angry, you can talk about it with other people. Its helpful to talk about your anger with an adult, such as parents, a teacher, etc. When you talk about anger, those bad feelings can start to go away. Here are some other things you can do when you start to feel angry: talk to a good friend; count from 1 to 100; give someone a hug; go for a bike ride ; think about good things, etc.Remember that how you act when you are angry can make everything better or worse.

Los Angeles is a big city with a large downtown area. Almost everyone in the city uses a car to get around instead of using public transportation. Many people, who live far from the city, drive many kilometers to work and back every day.Experts say one way to solve the traffic problems in Los Angeles would be to make people want to use public transportation instead of their own cars. People say taking a bus should be easier, faster and cheaper than driving. One piece of advice is to reduce the cost of taking the bus. People who usually drive could save a lot of money on the cost of gas and parking. Also, Los Angeles could make the buses easier to use by having them go to more places in the city. There could also be more special lanes on the highways that only buses can take. These changes would make taking the bus faster and easier than driving a car.Other experts say the best way to solve the traffic problems is to charge people to drive on the highways. These charges would be for the most crowded roads, and drivers would have to pay to take them. This would make the traffic less on these roads ，and the money collected this way could be used to improve the roads and public transportation.24How do most people travel in Los Angeles? A. By car. B. By train. C. By bus. D. By bike.25From the passage, we know that Los Angeles _. A. has a small downtown area B. is a poor and dirty city C. encourages people to buy cars D. has many traffic problems26Which way of encouraging people to use public transportation is NOT talked about in the passage? A. Having buses go to more places in the city. B. Making more bus lanes on highways. C. Increasing the price of gas and parking. D. Reducing the cost of taking a bus.27What is the best title for the passage?A. The Causes of Traffic ProblemsB. Ways to Solve Traffic ProblemsC. Reasons for Taking Public TransportationD. Traffic Problems and Pollution答案：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了美国洛杉矶交通拥挤情况及缓解巨大的交通压力和应对拥堵的解决办法。24解析：细节理解题。根据第一段的“Almost everyone in the city uses a car to get around”可知在洛杉矶，人们一般开车出行，故选A。B是乘火车；C是乘公交车；D是骑自行车，这些都与原文内容不符。答案：A25解析：推理判断题。由短文的第一句可判断，洛杉矶存在很多交通问题，故答案为D。A是洛杉矶有一个小的商业区；B是洛杉矶是一个贫穷而肮脏的城市；C是鼓励人们去买车，这都与原文不符。答案：D26解析：细节理解题。根据短文的第二段和第三段可知，本文没有提及“提高燃油和停车的费用”来鼓励人们乘公交车，故选C。A是使公交到这个城市里更多的地方；B是在高速路上开辟更多的公交车道；D是减少乘公交车的费用，这些内容在原文中都有，与题干要求不符。答案：C27解析：主旨大意题。本文主要提出了解决交通问题的一些方法。答案：BCAccording to the study, babies who get on well with their mothers are well behaved, patient and more mature. And these qualities give them a good future，the Science Daily reported.“Most parents try their best to help the child in future development, and they want to build a positive and close relationship to get good results several years later，” says Grazyna from the University of Iowa, US.For the study,102 mothers ，fathers and babies had volunteered from the time the children were 7 months old until they were almost 4 and a half years old.Children who had developed a close and positive relationship with their mothers in the first two years of their lives did much better and they have better behavior than children who hadnt developed such ties.The researchers also studied how relationships between mothers and children worked. When mothers and babies develop this closeness in the first two years well，mothers dont need to use some rules later to get their children to do what they ask and refrain from other behaviors.And in turn, the children can do better in the school later. Some of these findings were similar for fathers and children. Positive relationships between fathers and children in the first two years of life could also make children have better performance when the children were 4 and a half.28Most parents try their best to build a positive and close relationship with their children to _. A. make a survey B. give them a good future C. teach them D. spend beautiful time29Which of the following isnt right? A.

The time to build a positive and close relationship between mother and child.答案：这是一篇议论文，主要谈论了孩子和母亲的关系问题，孩子在小时候和母亲关系融洽，他们今后生活得更好，从而有一个更加美好的未来。28解析：细节理解题。由第二段可知，大多数的父母尽最大努力与他们孩子建立积极和亲密的关系是为了给他们一个美好的未来。答案：B29解析：细节理解题。由第三段可知，这些父母是自愿参加这次调查，故B项是错的。答案：B30解析：推理判断题。A是孩子们之间的关系；B是父母之间的关系；D是父亲和孩子们的关系，通读文章可知，这三个选项的内容都不正确，本文主要介绍了小孩和母亲的关系，故C符合题意。答案：C31解析：主旨大意题。由文章大意可知，本文主要讲述了母亲和孩子之间的积极和亲密关系有利于孩子的未来发展。答案：ADWhen did you last see a polar bear? On a trip to zoo, perhaps? If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago, you would have seen a whole polar bear club. These “Polar Bears” are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water. The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island, New York, are usually about the age of 60. Members must satisfy two requirements. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group; this is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club. Second, Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February.Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold water swimming. Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the bodys temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops. Other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter.The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits of coldwater swimming. They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for them because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm. Coldwater swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water. A person who turns blue probably has a very poor health and should not try coldwater swimming.The main benefits of coldwater swimming are probably mental. The Polar Bears love to swim yearround; they find it fun and relaxing. As one 70yearold woman says, “When I go into the water, I put my troubles into the ocean and let them float away.”32The members of the Polar Bear Club must meet the following requirements EXCEPT that _.A. they should be easy to make friends withB. they must swim outdoors at least 8 times in the four cold monthsC. they must agree to swim outdoors from November through February D. they must reach the age of 60 33According to the passage, doctors _.A. encourage people to take part in coldwater swimming activelyB. point out the possible danger of blood illness during coldwater swimmingC. believe swimming is helpful both in winter and in summerD. have different ideas about the medical effects of coldwater swimming34According to the passage, some doctors believe it is true that _.A. you are healthy if coldwater swimming turns your skin color blue B. there is more danger of heart attacks in summer swimming than in winterC. coldwater swimming can make the body temperature dangerously highD. Polar Bears are bears swimming in freezing water35The Polar Bears like to swim all the year round, for _.A. they can remain youngB. it is an easy way to keep the body warm in winterC. they find it enjoyable and interestingD. they might meet fewer troubles in life答案：文章讲述了纽约冬泳俱乐部的成员经常在寒冷的冰水中游泳，并介绍了俱乐部成员需要具备的条件，以及不同的医生对冬泳的不同观点。32解析：细节理解题。根据首段Members must satisfy two requirements. First, they must get along well with everyone else in the group . Second, Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February.可知A，B，C均已提到。俱乐部的成员通常在60岁左右，而不是必须达到60岁，故选D。答案：D33解析：推理判断题。根据第二段Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold water swimming. Some are worried.Other doctors.可知，医生对于冬泳的医疗效果意见不一致，故选D。答案：D34解析：细节理解题。可根据第二段Other doctors, however, point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming可判断，有的医生认为夏季游泳比冬季游泳发生心脏病的危险性更高，故选B。答案：B35解析：细节理解题。根据末段The Polar Bears love to swim yearround; they find it fun and relaxing.可知，他们喜欢常年冬泳，因为他们发现冬泳有趣，可以使人放松。答案：C第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Once upon a time, a man punished his 5yearold daughter for using up the familys only roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. _36_ He saw that the child had pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree.Nevertheless, the next morning the little girl, filled with excitement, brought the gift box to her father and said, “This is for you, Daddy！”_37_ “Dont you know, young lady，” he said angrily, “when you give someone a present, theres supposed to be something inside the package？” The little girl looked up at him with tears rolling from her eyes and said, “Daddy, its not empty. _38_” The father was moved. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his little girl. _39_ An accident took the life of the child only a short time later. It is told that the father kept that little gold box for all the years of his life. _40_ He would take out an imaginary kiss and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there. In a very real sense, each of us has been given an invisible gold box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, families, friends and God.There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.ABut when he opened it, he found it was empty.BHe was so poor that he couldnt buy any gift for his child.CWhenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he would open the box.DI blew kisses into it until it was all full.EWhen he missed his daughter, he would remember the box.FHe begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.GMoney was tight, and he became even more upset on Christmas Eve.答案：在圣诞节那天，女儿送给父亲一个空盒子，父亲非常生气，但当他知道盒子里装满了女儿的吻后，他非常感动36解析：由文章第一句话可知，此空应该解释为什么小孩子只是用完了家里的仅有的一卷包装纸就受到了父亲的惩罚，故G项正确。答案：G37解析：根据“when you give someone a present, theres supposed to be something inside the package”及angrily可知，盒子里面没有东西。
