Sorry I havent emailed recently Ive been revising for my exams. I have finished them now and I have got some time to relax and some money to spend on going out. Last weekend, I went to see a great film called Yes Man. If you havent seen it, you must go! Jim Carrey plays the main character and its very funny-and also quite encouraging. Its based on a book by Danny Wallace which is also called Yes Man. I read the book a few months ago and thats hilarious, too I really laughed out loud!The book is a ture story about what happens to the writer, Danny. Basically, he found that he was doing nothing all the time, just worrying about things and complaining about his life. He wasnt seeing his friends much, so he was lonely and bored. Then one day, he was on a bus in London when he sat down next to a man. The man was a stranger, but they started talking. Danny told him about his boring life and the man just gave him three words: Say yes more. And for Danny this was a turning point in his life. Those three words influenced everything he did. At that moment, he made a decision: I will say yes to everything! And he wrote a book about what happened to him in the next year or so. Three years later, the book was made into a hit film.The film is based on the book although there are some differences. First, its set in the US instead of England. Secondly, the main character is based on Danny, but he called Carl in the film. And whats more, he doesnt meet a man on a bus. His turning point comes when he goes to a self-help class and they advise him to say yes more.In the film Carl succeeds in changing his life and doing lots of crazy things: he has flying lessons, he learns to speak Korean and he rides a motorbike with no clothes on! The storyline isnt very strong. Its quite weak, I suppose, but all Carls stories are very interesting especially because Jim Carrey is a very funny actor.Im really interested in the film because theres a serious message, too. I believe in making the most of life and Ive decided Im going to be more positive. Ive decided Im not going to stay at home so much. Im going to do more things, see my friends more and everything. Actually, thats why Im emailing you! It would be great if we could meet up soon. Let me know when you are free.All the best, Adam（1）The underlined word hilarious in Paragraph 1 most probably means _.A . simpleB . helpfulC . humorousD . meaningful（2）In Paragraph 3, there are_ differences mentioned between the book and the film.A . twoB . threeC . fourD . five（3）Adam wrote this email mainly _.A . to talk about what he was doing recentlyB . to introduce the book Yes Man written by Danny to SamC . to advise Sam to watch the film Yes Man made in USD . to talk about why and how he wants to change his life（4）From the email we can infer (推断) that _.A . Sam will love Yes Man as much as Adam doesB . Yes Man must be the most popular book in the USC . Adam used to stay at home a lot before seeing Yes ManD . Jim Carrey is now a very funny actor because of Yes Man33. （8分）阅读理解Mikell Brown lives in New York and works at home.

In the days when people knew very little about medicine, some very strange and horrible cures were tried. Here are some of the worst.ToothachesAncient Egyptians who had a toothache didnt use to go to the dentist, because there werent any dentists in those days. So they used to find a dead mouse and put it in their mouth. They left there for a few hours. Did it take the toothache away? Who knows!? But arent you happy that theres a dentist near you ?BackachesA backache is no fun at all. People who suffer from one have a lot of pain. Sometimes its because a bone in the back is out of position. In ancient Greece, doctors used to cure a backache like this: They tied the patient to a ladder, pulled the ladder up high and then let it fall to the ground. Bang! The Bone went back into the place. Well, that was the idea, but this “cure” probably just made the backache worse!BaldnessOK, its not really a disease at all. But men whose hair is falling out are never happy about it ,are they? The ancient Egyptians had the solution. What did they use to do ?They took the fat of a lion, a hippo, a cat and a snake, mixed them together, and then rubbed the mixture into the mans head. Maybe it stopped baldness, maybe not, but the mans head certainly didnt smell too good afterward.（1）What does the underlined word “baldness” mean?

They happen during “Hurricane Season,” which is from June 1st until November 30th in the Atlantic Ocean and from May 15th until November 30th in the Pacific Ocean.Categories(类别)of HurricanesThere are five categories of hurricanes, which are based on wind speeds. The categories help people know how much damage(危害)a hurricane may cause because the greater the wind speed, the more dangerous the storm is. For example, a Category 5 hurricane has winds over 155 miles per hour, which are strong enough to destroy the buildings along the shorelines completely.Hurricane DangersWhen a hurricane happens together with heavy rainfall, there can be a devastating flood. The centre of a hurricane is called the eye. While most of a hurricane has dangerously strong winds, the eye is actually(事实上)a calm area in the storm. When the eye of a hurricane passes over land, people might think that its over, but before long the wind and rain increase again as the second part of the hurricane moves through.Hurricane Safety TipsThere is no way to stop a hurricane or make it change direction, so if you ever find yourself in the path of a hurricane, be sure to remember the following safety tips.Be sure you have a radio, batteries, fresh drinking water, and enough food.Tell neighbours, friends, and family members your emergency plans. Tell them where youll go if you need to leave your home.If you live near the ocean, leave your home and travel to a safe place. You could stay with a friend or a family member, in a hotel or in an emergency shelter area.Stay inside during the storm. You could be seriously injured (受伤) if you go outside.（1）When is Hurricane Season?（2）What are categories of hurricanes based on?（3）What is called the eye?（4）How many hurricane safety tips are mentioned(提到) in the passage?（5）What should you do most probably if a hurricane happens?（自拟一句话作答）四、 根据句子，写出正确的单词 (共10题；共44分)37. （1分）Look!
