After having completed the required courses, we started teaching in the same school. Frequently we had lunch together. For a time we were just casual friends, but one day, when I was telling Jennie about my problem son, we discovered we were kindred spirits. “Hes a difficult little character，” I explained. Jennie looked thoughtful, “Maybe youre seeing him with your eyes.” She was silent a moment and then added softly, “It is only with the heart that one sees rightly.” I stared at her, “Youre quoting that! Its from The Little Prince, SaintExuperys book for children. One of my favorites. You know it, too？” Jennie nodded, “I love it. Ive read it so often, Ive practically memorized it.” Now, when I think of Jennie, I recall that book, because Jenniemore than anyone I knowpossessed the gift of seeing with the heart. From that moment of a treasured book shared, our friendship grew steadily. It wasnt that I didnt have an excellent relationship with my husband and son. But my mother had died shortly after my marriage, and I had neither sisters nor daughters. I realize, now, how I needed someone to share those little, seemingly unimportant things that add so much to lifethings that must be shared to be fully appreciated. And it was Jennie who helped me with my fourthgrade problem child. One day I_was_at_my_wits_end. “What he needs is a good beating！” I exploded. “Hes probably had plenty of those，” Jennie said. “Maybe he just needs sincere praise for anything he does right, and a hug or two each day.” I followed this suggestion, and eventually, because of Jennie, I discovered a lovable little boy. Looking back, I had to admit that she taught me so much, such as how to love spring. One April day I said, “I hate rain！” And Ill never forget what she said, “You cant hate spring rain! It brings the flowers！” So I learned to love spring rain, too, because it did bring flowersviolets, tulips and daffodils.16. What does the underlined sentence “I was at my wits end” mean?A. I didnt know what to do next. B. I decided to give up.C. I was hurt by my son deeply. D. I was very proud of my son.17. We learn from the passage that the author _.A. has the gift of seeing with the heartB. likes spring rain because it seldom rains in springC. had lost her mother before her marriageD. seldom praised her child in the past18. How does the author feel about her family?A. No one listened to her seemingly unimportant things.B. She didnt get along well with her husband and son.C. She seldom spoke to her mother.D. She felt quite alone in her family.19. The passage is mainly about _.A. how to educate children properlyB. the fact that we should see nature differentlyC. the influence of friendship on our lifeD. how friendship begins and develops答案与解析：文章讲述了作者和Jennie之间的友谊。从Jennie身上作者不仅学会了如何教育孩子，还学会了怎样欣赏生活。16A句意理解题。由上一句中的problem child和下一句中的a good beating可知，作者对她的儿子是无计可施、无可奈何了，其他选项均不合文意。17D推理判断题。由文章倒数第二段中的“Maybe he just needs sincere praise”和“I followed this suggestion”可知，作者平时很少表扬自己的孩子，故D项为正确答案。由第三段可知是作者的朋友有这种用心看人的天赋，所以A选项不正确；作者喜欢春雨不是因为春天少雨，而是因为它给我们带来了鲜花，故B项不正确；C项明显错误，因为作者的母亲是在作者结婚后去世的。18A细节理解题。由文章第四段最后一句可知，在家里没有人能和作者谈一些似乎不重要的事情，故A项正确。19C主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了作者和她的朋友Jennie之间的友谊，及该友谊对作者生活的影响，故C项最合适。B There are more than one billion people around the world who smoke. Bill Gates, cofounder and former CEO of Microsoft, wants them all to quit. So does New York Citys mayor Michael Bloomberg. This week, the Gates Foundation, a charity organization set up by Bill Gates and his wife, Melinda, teamed up with Bloomberg to donate $500 million over the next five years to antitobacco programs. Bloomberg is no stranger to antitobacco plans. He has been fighting tobaccouse in New York City for years. In 2002, Bloomberg pushed for a ban on smoking in all New York City restaurants. Bloombergs Initiative to Reduce Tobacco Use was created in 2005. It aims to discourage smoking trends around the world by working to change tobaccos image, protect nonsmokers from secondhand smoke, and help people quit. Bloomberg gave $ 125 million to start the program. Now, he is adding another $ 250 million. The Gates Foundation will invest $ 125 million over five years to fight the tobacco epidemic, including a $ 24 million gift directly to the Bloomberg Initiative. The money donated by the Gates Foundation will support antismoking efforts in developing countries where tobacco use is the highest. “Tobaccocaused diseases have become one of the greatest health challenges facing developing countries，” Gates says. In addition to donating to the Bloomberg Initiative, the Gates Foundation will also help prevent the tobacco epidemic from taking root in Africa. “The epidemic in Africa is not well advanced，” Gates explains. “That means that we can catch it at an early stage.” Tobaccouse kills more than five million people every year. If the trend doesnt change, more than one billion people could die of tobaccorelated illnesses this century. Gates and Bloomberg have high hopes to change these statistics. “Together we can make a clear, measurable difference, not just for ourselves and our generation, but for the generations that come after us，” says Bloomberg.20. The passage is mainly about _. A. the harmful effects of smoking B. Bill Gates contribution to the world C. a ban on smoking in New York City D. a plan to stop smoking21. How much does Bloomberg invest altogether? A. $ 125 million. B. $ 250 million. C. $ 375 million. D. $ 500 million.22. We learn from the passage that _. A. the Gates Foundation is set up by Bill Gates and Bloomberg B. tobaccouse has become a big threat to developing countries C. Bloombergs Initiative to Reduce Tobacco Use was created in 2002 D. tobaccouse kills more than fifty million people every year23. Whats Gates and Bloombergs attitude towards the antismoking efforts? A. Optimistic. B. Skeptical. C. Opposable. D. Surprised.答案与解析：纽约市市长迈克尔布隆伯格和微软公司创始人比尔盖茨在纽约宣布共同捐出5亿美元推广禁烟运动，以帮助发展中国家实施行之有效的禁烟政策。20D主旨大意题。由文章第一段最后一句“比尔盖茨和他的妻子梅琳达与布隆伯格一起捐献5亿美元用于未来五年的反烟草计划”可知，本文主要讲了一项禁烟计划。21C细节理解题。由第三段第三句和第四句“Bloomberg gave $ 125 million to start the program. Now, he is adding another $ 250 million.”可知，Bloomberg一共拿出了3.75亿美元。22B推理判断题。由第四段中的“Tobaccocaused diseases have become one of the greatest health challenges facing developing countries”可知，吸烟引起的疾病已经成为发展中国家面临的一个重大的挑战，即烟草的使用已经成为发展中国家的一大威胁。23A观点态度题。根据最后一段中的“Gates and Bloomberg have high hopes to change these statistics.”和“Together we can make a clear, measurable difference”可以判断，他们对禁烟计划持乐观态度。.书面表达请根据下面两幅图画用英语写一篇短文，描述自己家乡的变化，并谈谈自己的看法。注意：1.词数100左右；2可以适当发挥，以使短文连贯；3开头已为你写好，不计入总词数。This summer, I went to my hometown and found it changed a lot.In the past, _范文：This summer, I went to my hometown and found it changed a lot.In the past, my hometown was very beautiful.

Tall and straight trees, beautiful flowers and green grass could be seen everywhere.Nowadays, however, with the development of modern society, people are living a “happy” life.
