They were a loving couple and the boy was the apple of their eye. When the boy was around four years old, one day the father was very tired after work so he asked his wife to pick up their son. The mother, who was very busy in the kitchen, totally forgot about it.Later, the boy lost his way on the street. When the son was found missing, the mother hurried to look for him, but she didnt find him. The mother felt very sad and didnt know how to face her husband.When the father went to the police station after hearing that the son was missing, he looked at his wife and said just four words. What do you think the four words were? The husband just said I love you, darling. The son was missing. If she had picked him up earlier, this would not have happened. There is no point in blaming (责备) anyone. His wife had also lost her only child. What his wife needed at that moment was fort and understanding from her husband. That is what the husband gave his wife. Several weeks later, with the help of the police, the couple finally found their lost son. The familys relationship became stronger over that time.Sometimes we spend lots of time asking who is to blame. We miss many chances to give each other support and let each other feel the warmth of human relationships. Get rid of all your unwillingness to forgive, selfishness, and fears and you will find the world is much more wonderful.21. What is the meaning of the underlined phrase “the apple of their eye”?A.

What do you think of the husband?A. Warm-hearted. B. Careful. C. Hard-working. D. Broad-minded.BHow Do Animals Catch their ZZZs（打鼾声）？Different creatures have developed some pretty creative ways to get their rest and stay safe. The lizard likes to sleep at the far end of small branches hanging out over a pond or lake in the rain forest. If a snake tries to slither up the branch to eat it, it will shake the branch and knock the lizard off, and the lizard will fall safely into the water. Chameleons can change color to match their surroundings in order to hide even while sleeping.Gorillas like to sleep high in the trees. They build a new bed every night, sometimes taking up to half an hour to pile branches, twigs, and leaves into a fortable bed. Birds also find it safe to sleep in the trees, but unless they have eggs or young chicks, they dont use a nest. They just lock their feet around a branch and hang on. A special tendon in their legs is automatically tight when they are at rest, so they wont let go and fall. Dolphins live underwater, but must e to the surface to breathe. Scientists now believe that dolphins may sleep with only half their brain, while the other half stays awake to keep them safe and breathing. Seals also do this, lying on their sides on the surface of the water with one flipper underwater paddling to keep their noses above the surface. Some ducks may also have this ability, and actually sleep with one eye closed and one eye open.25. How does a chameleon protect itself while sleeping?A. By changing its body colors. B. By hanging out over a pond.C. By sleeping with half their brain. D. By making beds with branches.26. Why will not birds fall when they are at rest?A. They build nests and sleep in them. B. They fall asleep automatically.C. They have a loose tendon in their legs. D. They lock their feet around a branch.27. How do dolphins breathe?A. They breathe underwater. B. They e to the surface to breathe.C. They breathe under water or e to the surface to breathe.D. We dont know.28. What does the writer intend to tell us?A. The cleverest animal is the gorilla because it can make beds.B. Differences in habitat can lead to different living habits.C. The ways animals catch their ZZZs are pretty much the same.D. In order to protect themselves, most animals choose not to sleep. CText messaging, or simply “texting”, which allows people to send and receive messages on mobile phones, bees very popular today.The advantages of texting are obvious. Texting helps to save money. If you have a few words to greet your families and friends on their birthdays or on some important festivals, sending messages can be cheaper than phone calling. Texting helps to save time. Even if you want to send a message to 100 people, you can do it one second. Texting helps you to “talk” to someone when he is too busy to answer the phone. Texting can also help you to “talk” to someone secretly, if you dont want others to hear what you are talking on the phone. These advantages are so amazing that many people are crazy about it. They hold mobile phones in hands all day long, send dozens of messages each day, and even text while driving or walking.However, texting has its disadvantages. Junk messages may e into your mobile phone box now and then. When your phone box gets too full, you cant receive any more messages. You may, therefore, miss some important information.Whats more, if you dont do texting properly, for example, texting while driving or walking, it can be dangerous. It can cause injuries and even death. It was reported that about 6,000 people were killed and half a million were injured for this reason each year. In Fort Lee, a small town in New Jersey, USA, three people died because they walked into traffic while texting in 2011. Two researchers at Stony Brook University, New York found that texters are 60% more probably to have an accident than others. When people are texting, they dont notice other people or things around them. To reduce traffic accidents, all drivers of the UN are now not allowed to text while driving. About 32 countries have passed laws restricting the use of mobile phones while driving.Texting is a wonderful way of munication. However, only when we use it properly, can we fully enjoy the fun it brings.29. How many advantages of texting are mentioned in the passage?A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.30. What did the researchers at Stony Brook University find?A. Texters are easier to have an accident.B. Texting is a good way of munication.C. 6,000 people were killed and injured.D. Many people text to greet families and friends.31. The underlined word restricting probably means_.A. not telling B. not allowing C. enjoying D. making32. This passage is written to tell us that _.A. we should do less texting B. texting has many advantagesC. texting is better than phone calling D. we should do texting properlyDPoster 1I am a journalist living in Barcelona and I would like to travel exchanging my apartment.

Im writing to tell you something. I went to the cyber caf near our school on one day. I was surprising to see many students playing puter games, watching films and chatting.
