He had never seen such beautiful falcons before. He loved them so much and he ordered the best falconer to train them to fly.After several months, the king came to see how the training was going on. He found that one falcon had already been able to fly high in the sky, while the other was staying on the branch(树枝) of a tree quietly, just keeping still.The king called all his falcons together and ordered them to try every way they could to make the other falcon fly. But none of them succeeded. One day, while the king was taking a walk in the forest, an idea came to his mind. Maybe someone who knew the natural environment well could solve this problem. He spent for a farmer who lived in the forest into his palace to train it at once.The next morning, the king saw the other falcon flying above in the sky freely. “ it is unbelievable !” shouted the king. How could you make it happen?”The farmer replied,“Its very easy. I just cut off the branch where the falcon rested.”It is always the same to human beings. We all have “two flying wings” in our hearts as well, but we often seem not to notice them and stay where we just for safety and comfort. We wont realize we can fly so high and freely until the “branch” we are resting on breaks.（1）What did the king do after he got the two falcons?A . He kept them on the branch of a tree.B .

Because he wanted to know more about his falcons.（3）Who finally made the other falcon fly freely in the sky?A . The king.B . The kings son.C . The farmer.D . The best falconer.（4）How did the king feel when he saw the other falcon fly freely in the sky?A . Excited.B . Moved.C . Worried.D . Relaxed.（5）What is the best title for the text？A . The Wise KingB .

As time goes by, it becomes less and less, so what are we going to do when it runs out? Perhaps we will go back to use horses, carriages and bicycles.In the Second World War, some people didnt use gas made from petroleum （石油）in their cars. They made gas from wood and plants instead. The cars didnt go fast, but they ran, so this was better than nothing. However, in the future, we cant cut down all our trees to make gas; we need our trees for other things, too.Besides different types of gas, we can also use electricity(电) to run our cars but first we must make the electricity! Some countries have coal and they make electricity with that, but we might not always have coal, either. Other countries have big, strong rivers and they can use the power of water to turn turbines(涡轮机) and make electricity more easily and cheaply.We are also able to get power from the ocean tides. We put turbines into the mouth of the river. Then the tide comes in, the water turns the turbines and then it goes out, it turns them again.Which of these ways will be used to run our cars in the future?（1）When might people have to go back to using horses and carriages?A . When they are poor.B . When they run out of oil.C . When they need more exercise.D . When there arent any big trees in the world.（2）How many ways are suggested to make electricity in the passage?A . 2.B . 5.C . 4.D . 3.（3）The passage is mainly about .A . how to run our carsB . what to do when oil runs outC . different types of gasD . the way to make electricity三、 词汇运用。 (共2题；共15分)6. （5分）方框中所给单词的适当形式填空。spend weigh slow leaf succeed（1）Spring is coming and the_turn green.（2）If we walk_, well be late for the film.（3）-What are they doing? -They are _an elephant.（4）He is very happy because he has_in passing the exam.（5）Mrs. Smith_three thousand yuan on the gold necklace.7. （10分）阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个恰当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空.Dear Nancy,How are you?
