My husband became more and more unfriendly toward me and toward Simona. He didn’t understand how important it was for Simona to receive regular examinations by a doctor or why she needed proper treatment for her sickness.” When her mother tried to enroll(登记) Simona in a school, the teacher warned her that when other parents found out about her illness she would be shunned by the other children.

D Dear Michelle, My mother is not a good example for me and my sister. She smokes, stays out late, and she curses(骂人).I love her but I am ashamed of her.I do not want to bring my friends home because she does not act like any of the other mothers. She says I am a loser because I sit at home and study. I wish I could live in another family that was normal,but it will be 5 years before I am 18 and legal. What am I supposed to do until then? Prisoner of a Crazy House Dear 7th Grader, I am glad that you love your mother because the rest of your feeings about her may change as you get older and mature(成熟). While it is true that your mother’s smoking, partying and cursing bring you shame, the fact that you want to stay separate from her doings is notable and very smart. It shows that you are a winner,not a loser. I am guessing, therefore, that you do not bring shame to yourself, and that is a good thing, So,keep it that way and keep away from your mother’s habits. At the same time,try to get the best grades and join clubs and school activities. Offer social service on weekends and visit your friends at their homes. Unfortunately, you are not alone.Many teens live in homes with immature,misguided, selfish parents. Those kids often feel lonely and separate from the rest of their friends because of their parents’ terrible deeds. But they develop good friendships with nice kids, do well in school,and often find a teacher or guidance advisor who makes all the difference! Do it, Miss Winning 13 years old, and keep looking forward to your own fine future.Maybe by then your mother may even see the light and realize how surprising you really are. Best luck! Michelle 64.The kid asks for advice on how to___________. A.make her mother change B.deal with her situation C.get along well with her mother D.start a new family 65.Michelle doesn’t address her letter receiver as“Prisoner of a Crazy House”possibly because she __________. A.tries to be polite B.doesn’t write to the kid alone C.knows that’s a girl in Grade 7 D.wants to cheer the kid up 66.According to the passage, Michelle advises the girl to_________. A.try talking to her mother for her future B.stick to her attitude towards her mother’s some habits C.understand her mother’s habits and get used to them D.try to keep away from her mother 67.What does Michelle mainly express by writing the last four paragraphs?

The reason I was in this class had 21 to do with my intelligence. I am blind. The school 22 that it would be better for me to learn at a lower level because it takes me a great deal longer to complete school tasks. The only problem with being in this class was that I was 23 by "at-risk" students, who did not perform well in school and were 24 in trouble with the school and the law. On Monday mornings, the kids talked about what they had done during the past 25 . I tried not to listen, but it was almost 26 not to. I heard things in that classroom that shocked me. 27 the teacher was in the room, that didn"t stop my classmates from 28 their stories of drugs and violence. 29 I was tired of their rude words. I even began to 30 the fact that I had to be there. One Tuesday morning, I went to a Christian Student Union meeting before school, where a guest speaker talked to us about praying for our 31 no matter how much we hated them. I thought a lot and began to pray for the kids in my class, asking God to 32 them for they weren"t bad kids; they were just 33 . 34 what I did was automatic. When I heard their voices in class, I would pray, "Dear God, please bless so-and-so . . ." But as I continued, something was growing 35 my heart for them. My classmates gradually became more than just annoying kids to me. They began to feel like family, and I was learning to love them in a way I 36 thought possible. I now see that praying is such a 37 act. When I pray for those around me, it also 38 my life, and it changes my understanding of others. I realized God"s blessings enabled me to see the world through 39 eyes. The prayers I said for others 40 to help me the most. 21. A. something B. nothing C. everything D. anything 22.

C Jiang Nan, a full-time mother in Beijing, keeps a dozen or so cloth bags at home, carefully selecting one or two before heading out to get groceries. “Most of them were giveaways from advertising marketing campaigns, but others had been handed out in the street by various environmental protection organizations,” she explained. Since June 2008 China has forbidden the production, sale and usage of plastic bags thinner than 0.025 millimeter (毫米), and retailers(零售商) are not allowed to provide free plastic bags to their customers, regardless of the thickness. Many Chinese consumers like Jiang have learned to refuse plastic bags whenever possible in their shopping. “A plastic bag may only cost a few jiao, but it’s more about how bad they are for the environment,” Jiang said. The plastic ban is for the most part well carried out in big cities, and has been distinctly effective in reducing white waste. On the first anniversary of the plastic ban Global Village of Beijing, an NGO environmental organization, shows that during the year of the ban the consumption of plastic bags fell by about 40 billion pieces in chain supermarkets alone, saving more than 1.2 million tons of petroleum. However, enforcement shows considerably less muscle in smaller cities, towns and country- side. In a remote town like Lichuan, the awareness of environmental protection is not as strong as that in big cities. Street vendors(街头小贩) worry that they are likely to lose customers if they charge them for plastic bags. Seeing no significance in the issue, local government often turn a blind eye to banned bag traffic in the market. There are still those who don’t have an interest in living green. Cui Lin, another Beijinger, often forgets to bring a cloth bag when shopping, and has to buy plastic bags. “Anyway I think plastic bags are neater and cleaner, and I don’t mind paying a couple more jiao,” he shrugged. Mrs Yu, a vegetable vendor in Lichuan County, Jiangxi Province, recalled that before plastic bags became popular in the early 1990s, Chinese people always carried a bamboo basket when they visited the market. “Plastic bags are more convenient,” she comments, and her view might be that of the tens of millions of people in the nation who still cling to plastic bags, paid or free. This is suggested by her trade where piles of plastic bags are still passed out every day. 49. In Paragraph 1, the writer uses Jiang Nan’s case to __________.
A. introduce a topic
| B. tell a story
| C. describe a person
| D. offer an argument
| How did Jiang Nan get her cloth bags?
A. She bought them at a low price. C. She borrowed them from her relatives.
| B. She got them for free. D. She made them herself.
| 51. Which is NOT the reason why some people still use plastic bags when shopping?
A. Cloth bags are difficult to get and heavy to carry.
| B. People’s awareness of environmental protection is not strong enough.
| C. People don’t mind paying a couple more jiao for plastic bags.
| D. Street vendors worry that they are likely to lose customers if they charge them.
| 52. What message does the writer mostly convey in the passage?
A. To reduce white waste is urgent.
| B. The plastic bag ban has achieved great success.
| C. There is still a long way to go for the plastic bag ban.
| D. People’s awareness of environmental protection should be stressed.
