A）阅读短文，根据短文内容判断所给句子正（T）误（F）。（共5小题，每小题2分）

Last year I was put into a lower level math class at school. The reason had nothing to do with my math problems. I couldnt see well.

The only problem in this class was there were naughty students all around me. These were boys who didnt do well in school. Their home life was clearly different from mine， and they were constantly in trouble with the school.

I remember sitting at my desk one morning. We had already finished our lesson for the day， and the other boys began to talk about what they had done at the past weekend. I tried not to listen， but it was really impossible. Even though the teacher was in the room， that didnt stop my classmates from discussing the parties they had been to， and what exciting things they had done...

One Tuesday morning， I went to a meeting. There was a speaker talking to us about praying for our enemies（敵人）. I began to think about this and prayed for the boys in my class. I forgot that they werent good boys; they were just lost.

When I heard their voices in class， I would pray， “Dear God， please bless （保佑）...” As time went on， there was something growing inside my heart， something that wasnt there before. They began to feel like a family， and I was learning to love them in a way I never thought possible.

I now see that praying is such a powerful act. When I pray for those around me， it also blesses my life， and it changes my ideas of others.

（    ）21. The writer was put in the lower level class because he was bad at math.

（    ）22. The meaning of underlined word “constantly” in the second paragraph is closest to “usually”.

（    ）23. The writer was angry with the teacher.

（    ）24. After the writer learned to pray for the boys， he had a different idea about them.

（    ）25. The boys only listened to their teachers.

Decide to Do Well

Everybody makes decisions in daily life. They can be as important as what you will do in the future or as simple as what you will eat for breakfast. Any decision could be the turning point of your life.

I made an important decision when I was in Grade Three in junior school.

Before I made that decision I was one of the boys who tried too hard to act as an adult. I didnt know that only kids want to show themselves as adults.

I didnt listen to my parents and teachers， and my grades became poor. Then came the high school entrance exam.

At the turning point of my life， my mom wanted to have a conversation with me. I wanted to turn it down but when I looked at her eyes， I felt I couldnt refuse. Instead of asking me to study hard， to my surprise， Mom just asked what I wanted to do in the future. Without thinking too much， I just said I would like to study hard.

Mom smiled and asked again， “I asked： what do you WANT to do？”

I never seriously thought about the question. So， I kept silent.

“Whether you want to go on studying or enter the society，” she went on， “it is your own decision. Your life ought to be decided by you， not by anyone else， including me.” After saying that， she had tears in her eyes.

For the first time in my life I was asked to make my own decision. I sat in my chair and thought about myself， my life and what kind of person I wanted to become.

It took me what seemed to be ages to make the biggest decision so far in my life—I wanted to be a man who makes a difference in the world. To achieve that， I needed to study hard.

The path to my future became clear to me. I didnt act rebelliously （叛逆地） any more. With passion （激情） in my heart， I studied hard.

Now， Im 17 and Im in one of the best schools in my city， in one of the best classes at the school and I am one of the best students in the class.

Thanks to that decision， I have become what I am today.

B. He tried too hard not to act as an adult.

C. He was one of the top students in his class.

（    ）28. How did the writer make the decision？

B. It was easy for him to make the decision.

C. He made the decision seriously.

C）阅读短文，根据短文内容简要回答下列问题。（共5小题，每小题2分）

There is little rain in deserts. Because deserts are so dry， they have no “quilt” to help stop the soil from going away. As a result， they may get very hot during the day with the sun shining， but dont hold the heat overnight. Many deserts can quickly get cold once the sun goes down. Some deserts can reach temperatures of over 100° F during the day and then drop below freezing （32° F） during the night.

The largest hot and dry desert in the world is the Sahara Desert in Northern Africa. The Sahara is a sandy desert with great sand hills. It covers over 3 million square miles of Africa. Other large deserts include the Arabian Desert in the Middle East， the Gobi Desert in Northern China and Mongolia， and the Kalahari Desert in Africa.

Animals that live in the desert are also used to needing little water. Many get all the water they need from the food they eat. Other animals keep water that they can use later. The camel stores up fat in its hump （驼峰） while other animals keep something they need in their tails.

Only certain types of plants can live in the terrible environment of the desert. You wont see a lot of tall trees in the desert. Most plants have a way to keep water in their leaves or trunks so they can live a long time without water.

Now deserts cover around 20% of the worlds land， but they are growing. This is called desertification and is caused by different reasons including human activities. The Sahara Desert is growing larger and larger each year. What should we do with it？

31. How is the weather during the night in the desert？

32. Where does the camel store up fat？

33. Why wont we see a lot of tall trees in the desert？

34. How much of the land do deserts cover in the world？

35. Is the Sahara Desert growing or not？

Are your parents often angry with you？ Or you always disagree with your parents. 36. 也许你和你父母之间的关系很糟糕。Its difficult to make your home become a happy and healthy place. In fact， you can change the situations by the following keys.

Respect （尊敬）

37. 尊重和關心父母的感受是很重要的。Though you have disagreements （分歧）， at least try to understand whatever they are trying to tell you. You shouldnt keep your own thoughts only.

Communication

38. 你可以用礼貌的方式和你的父母交流。You may not get what you want， but explaining your thoughts calmly and rationally （理智地） may show your parents that you are no longer a kid， not just a kid.

Trust

How can your parents build trust in you？ It depends on what you do. 39. For example， if you get home late without calling first， next time your parents may not believe you. To earn （赢得） their trust， you must pay attention to the ways you do things instead of fighting with them. It will make your life much easier.

Taking Time Together

Some teens find that sharing time together can build trust and communication. Your parents may be interested in going shopping， hanging out and playing cards with you. 40. Spending time together will drive away the “black cloud” hanging over your home.

Your parents give all their love to you. Why not try these ways actively to own a happy family as you want？
