1、I think it is important for children to learn how to do chores and help their parents with housework. It is not enough to just get good grades at school. 61Children these days depend on their parents too much. They are always asking, 62“你能给我拿一下这个吗?”or “Could you help me with that?” Doing chores helps to develop children’s independence and teaches them how to look after themselves. 63It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. Since they live in one house with their parents, they should know that everyone should do their part in keeping it clean and tidy. Our neighbors’son got into a good college but during his first year,64他不知道怎样照顾自己.As a result, he often fell ill and his grades dropped.65.The earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future.

24、Everybody hates rats. But rats may soon be man’s new good friends.
What happens after an earthquake? We send in rescue(援救)dogs. Why? Because they can smell people. Dogs save lives. They help rescuers to find living people. But dogs are big and they can’t get into small spaces. So now a new research project is using a smaller animal to save lives: the rat.
How does it work? First, the rat is trained to smell people. When this happens, the rat’s brain gives a signal(信号). This is sent to a small radio on its back, and then the rescuers follow the radio signals. When the rat’s brain activity jumps, the rescuers know that someone is alive. The rat has smelled that person.
Although there are already robots which can do this job, rats are better. “Robots’ noses don’t work well when there are other smells around. Rats are good at that.” Rats can also see in the dark, they are cheaper and quicker to train than dogs, and unlike robots, they don’t need electricity!
The “rat project” is not finished, but a scientist says, “It would be great. A rat could get into spaces we couldn’t get to, and a rat would get out if it wasn’t safe.” Perhaps for the first time in history, people will be happy to see a rat in a building (but only after an earthquake, of course).
【1】In the writer’s opinion, rats may become man’s new friends because .
A. they can be food for people
B. they can help rescuers to find living people
C. they are lovely
D. they can completely take the place of man to carry out rescue jobs
【2】What does the underlined word “this” mean?
A. An earthquake.
B. The rat has smelled a person
C. The rat has smelled that someone is alive .
D. The rat has found a robot.
【3】Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Rats don’t need electricity.
B. Rats are better than robots when smelling.
C. Rats are as clever as radios.
D. Rats can see things in the dark when doing rescues.
【4】Why does the “rat project” sound great according to the passage?
A. Because rats can get into very small spaces.
B. Because rats have better noses than dogs.
C. Because rats don’t like robots.
D. Because rats are brave.
【5】Which is the best title of this passage?
A. Ways of saving people B. Rats and robots
C. After earthquake D. Rats for rescue
25、Nov. 21 is World Hello Day. It began back in the 1970s as part of an effort to make the world more peaceful. It was created by the United Nations just after the war between Israel and Egypt in 1973. Its aim is to encourage people to use communication rather than force to settle conflicts(解决争端)。 The philosophy (理念) behind it is: Say “Hello” and stop war.
It sounds like a fine idea, but most of us know that simple saying “Hello” won’t bring about world peace. Still, the simple act of saying “hello ”to someone can truly make a lot of difference. You raise your head to someone as you pass by , say “Hello’.It is such a casual (不经意的)thing and requires so little effort, but you might even make his day.
Although we might not realize it, a small thing like a greeting can mean a lot to a person. Some people are lonely because they’re shy. That leads to them feeling cut off.they find it difficult to communicate with people, even though they want to. They may secretly smile in their hearts after they hear your greetings. It’s a good idea, not just on Nov.21, but every day, to remember to say “hello”to as many people as we can.
No one said it better than the French writer Joseph Joubert: “Politeness is the flower of humanity(人性)’’. A “Hello” to a stranger is a small thing, and often neglected (忽视), but through it we can make the world better for another person.
【1】World hello day was created by ____
A. Israel B. Egypt C. France D. United Natons.
【2】What does“it” in paragrahp 2 refer to?
A. To say “hello” B. to pass by
C. to raise your head D. to make his day
【3】Why do some people have difficulty commnicating?
A. Because they are shy B. Because they are polite
C. Because they are strange. D. Because they ae different
【4】Which one is True according to the passage?
A. Greeting requires a lot of effort.
B. We can say “hello” only on Nov.21.
C. Saying “hello” will bring about world peace
D. We can make the world better by greeting others.
【5】The purpose of the writer is to ____
A. Ask people to smile B. ask people to be polite .
C. Encourage people to stop war D. Encourage people to say “hello”
26、Everyone has got two personalities (性格)—the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you're awake because you can control yourself, but when you're asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, you often change your sleeping positions. The important position that best shows your secret personality is the one that you go to sleep.
If you go to sleep on your back, you're a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by new ideas. You don’t like to make people unhappy, so you never express your real feelings. You're quite shy and you aren't very confident.
If you sleep on your stomach, you are a person who likes to keep secrets. You worry a lot and you're always easily becoming sad. You never want to change your ideas, but you are satisfied with your life the way it is. You usually live for today not for tomorrow.
If you sleep on curled up (蜷缩) , you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and often protect yourself from being hurt, so you are very defensive. You're shy and you don't usually like meeting people. You like to be on your own.
If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced (平衡的) personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You're usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel worried, but you don't often get unhappy. You always say what you think, even if it makes people angry.

27、I was an unlucky nurse who had to work on Christmas Day. It was always quiet in the emergency room on this day, so I was not expecting any patients. When I was complaining about working on such a beautiful festival, a pale woman and four small children showed up at my desk.
"Are you all sick?" I asked suspiciously because they seemed all right.
"Yes," the woman answered in a low voice and lowered her head.
But when it comes to their problems, things got a little strange. Two of the children had headaches, but they didn't hold the head. Two children had earaches, but neither of them could tell me which ear was in pain. The mother complained of a cough, but she seemed to be pretending.
Something was wrong. I didn't say anything but explained that it might take a while before a doctor could meet them. "Take your time, please," the mother answered. I checked their charts-no address. Suddenly I knew, they were homeless and the hospital was warm.
I looked out at the family, sitting together under the Christmas tree, smiling and chatting with each other sweetly. Quietly, I went back to the nurses' station and told them that they had a homeless family in the waiting room. The nurses's station suddenly came back to life. All he nurses came into action, just as we did when there was a real medical emergency. But this one was a "Christmas emergency."
We took out our meals for our Christmas "patients". We also put together oranges and apples as presents. Usually we just tried to meet the physical needs of our patients. But today, we worked hard to exceed the needs of a family who only wanted a warm place on Christmas Day.

29、Wednesday Sunny
Today we had PE, so the first thing I did when I got outside was sneak off (偷偷摸摸) to the basketball court to see if the Cheese was still there. And sure enough, it was.
That piece of Cheese has been sitting on the blacktop since last spring. I ______ it must have dropped out of someone's sandwich or something.
