1、 The other day Roy Price went "home" to his sister's house. It's her home now, but it's also the house he was born in. Pat, his sister kissed him and said, "You haven't changed much, Roy. ___自从上次见面后，我们有很多年没见了。Let me see now. When did we meet last?"
"Twenty-five years ago," he answered. "I was here for a week. Do you remember?" He added.___"You haven't changed much, either." It was polite for Roy to say so, but it wasn't true. Pat seemed almost an old lady.
___The next morning, Roy walked through the village alone. The place looked very different. There were lots of traffic signs on that roads and beside the roads, there was a new car park, a new post office and a new bus stop. He remembered suddenly that the bus used to stop anywhere-you just put up your hand and it stopped. One surprise followed another. The railway station was gone! The school was gone. A lot of farm machinery stood in the playground!
___But Roy's biggest surprise was the people. He didn't recognize anybody at all, perhaps because everyone seemed old. He went into the post office and bought some stamps. "Where are all the children and young people?" he asked the postmaster.
The old fellow looked up from his book of stamps. "Children?" he said, "They are in school, of course. There are three or four young families here. The children go to school by bus-to Horham."
At lunch Pat said, "The village looks nice, doesn't it?"
"It's all different, Pat. It used to be an exciting place. ___但是现在村子里满是老年人。I don't understand..."
"There are few newcomers, but the ones we knew are still here. You're also not young, Roy, are you?"

24、 Heavy snow arrived in Hefei, Anhui, at the beginning of January. Although people found the snow beautiful at first, it quickly started making problems for them.
After a whole night and day of heavy snow, the city was covered in white. The thick snow covered everything. At first, people enjoyed looking out of their windows at the beautiful snow-covering city and parks. But safety soon became a problem and troubles came.
The snow made the roads very difficult to walk on, making it dangerous for people to drive. To fix this, the local government asked workers to clear the snow off the roads overnight. Thanks to their hard work, traffic was able to goback to normal.
The snow also brought some problems to the city's trees. The snow that fell on the trees' branches (树枝) got heavier as it continued to fall, causing some of the trees to break and fall down near roads. People were asked to go outside and shake the snow off the trees to protect them. My family and even myschool's headmaster went out and helped to shake the snow offthe trees.
But for me there was some good news, too. We didn't have to go to school because our roads to school might be too dangerous. I went outside to enjoy the beautiful snow and take pictures.

25、A beautiful woman entered the plane and looked around in search of her seat. She found her seat next to a man who had no hands. She called an air hostess (女乘务员) and said unhappily, “I won’t be able to travel comfortably in this seat. I want to change my seat.”
The air hostess was shocked to hear this from a woman who appeared to be beautiful. She looked around for vacant seats but didn’t find any. She told the woman, “There’s no vacant seat in this economy class (经济舱), but it’s our responsibility (责任) to take care of our passengers. I’ll go to discuss this with our leader. Please wait for a while.”
After some time, the air hostess came back to the woman and said, “I’m very sorry for the trouble caused for you. On this plane, only one seat is vacant and it’s in the business class. I discussed it with the leader and we have made a great decision—a person from this economy class will be allowed to travel in the business class.”
The woman was very excited. But before she could say something, the air hostess moved towards the man and asked him, “Sir, will you please go to the business class?

Passage l Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
It is an interesting story about a girl named Alice, who follows the White Rabbit down a rabbit hole and finds herself in Wonderland. She not only finds the White Rabbit, but also meets other animals such as the Dormouse and the Caterpillar. During her adventure, Alice eats and drinks things that make her change in size. At last, Alice enters a garden, where she happens to see a trial(审判) The Knave of Hearts is charged with stealing the Queen of Hearts’ tarts (甜馅饼), while the King of Hearts is the judge. As Alice argues with the Queen, the Queen becomes angry with Alice and orders her men to kill her. In the end, Alice grows into a huge size and knocks over the playing cards. Suddenly, Alice wakes from her dream.
The classic Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, written by Lewis Carroll, an English author, was fantastic and entertaining. It took you to a world of fantasy. The entire storyline is so imaginative. Alice, with her pleasant personality is attractive. It is one of the classics needed to complete your bookshelf.

Passage 2 The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
It is an interesting story about a girl named Dorothy, who is taken away from her home in a storm and finds herself in the Land of Oz. Dorothy, together with her companions the Tin Woodman who wants a heart, the Scarecrow who wants a brain and the Cowardly Lion who wants courage, journeys in search of the wizard in order to return home. After facing many difficulties, they successfully meet the Great Oz, who in fact is not a wizard. However, the old man gives the Scarecrow a brain made of pins and needles the Tin Woodman a heart made of silk and filled with sawdust and the Cowardly Lion a bottle of courage. In the end, Dorothy finally gets home to where her aunt and uncle live. They are very glad to find her safe.
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, written by L. Frank Baum, is an enjoyable American classic. What I loved most were Dorothy’s trust worthy friends, who were always there when Dorothy needed help. Dorothy is also loved by everyone for her sweetness and honesty. If you have not read it, why don’t you give yourself a treat?

27、Chinese buyers used to prize foreign brands, thinking that products made by American or European companies are of higher quality than Chinese ones. Increasingly, that’s no longer the case.
Chinese people born before 1985 generally think that foreign brands are better than Chinese ones. But for those who were born after 1985, it is a different picture.
“When I first went to the United Kingdom in 1997, I thought that the difference between China and Europe was quite big,” Li said, a worker in a technology company. “But for those born in the 1990s, when they visit Europe or the US, they do not think there is a big difference.”
The change in thinking among Chinese buyers is showing up in many markets in China where Western companies used to control. A study by Credit Suisse published in March found that young Chinese buyers are increasingly showing a home brand preference（偏爱）.
More than 90% of young Chinese buyers would prefer to buy home brands, according to the study. Meanwhile, home companies producing food, drinks, or personal care products increased their share（份额）of the market by 3.3% over the last ten years to nearly 70%.
The Chinese smartphone market is controlled by home companies—Huawei, Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi. Apple is the only foreign brand in the top five, but it has lost large ground to the home brands in recent years. Its market share is believed to be down to 37% from a 2015 high of 54%. After “Xinjiang cotton” event happened, more people will choose home brands like Li Ning instead of Adidas and Nike.
【1】What can we infer from Li’s words?
A．China has developed rapidly.
B．Chinese people in their twenties prefer foreign countries.
C．China and foreign countries had a lot in common in 1997.
D．There are no differences between China and foreign countries now.
【2】Which fact best explains “home brand preference”?
A．Apple had a market share of 54% in 2015.
B．Western companies controlled most of Chinese markets.
C．More and more Chinese buyers show up all over the world.
D．The market share of home brand products has increased to nearly 70%.
【3】According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A．More and more foreigners buy Chinese products.
B．The number of home brand lovers is increasing.
C．Older people don’t like foreign products any more.
D．Foreign products are more expensive than Chinese products.
【4】What is the passage mainly about?
A．Say “no” to foreign products.
B．Chinese products in the eyes of foreigners.
