阅读理解。    Diving around Halaveli Island was a really unforgettable experience. I participated in a day
diving trip that had lunch on the boat. We went to Maalhoss Thila first. The current (水流) can
be very strong here but we were lucky and had a mild one. We enjoyed all the different colors
of coral and fish. The maximum depth of this dive was 30m, and we stayed for about 40 minutes.
The water was reasonably warm, so I was not cold only wearing a short-sleeved wetsuit.
     I was a bit worried about having lunch on the boat, as sometimes my stomach feels bad, but it
was perfectly fine this time -perhaps because the boat had not stopped and was moving toward
the other dive place, or because the size of the boat was reasonably large.
     Our next diving place was called Manta. And as expect-ed, the huge Manta was soon around
us. It is one of the most exciting moments I have had in my life. We only dove to 14m this time,
which allowed us to stay a bit longer -almost 50 minutes.
     On the way back all the women took strategic position on the deck, sunbathing and relaxing,
while the men were getting bored and ate the leftovers from lunch. No matter how different we
were, we all enjoyed our trip.
     Another dive I would like to recommend(推荐)is called Maaya Thila, and it is the best night
dive I have ever had. We saw a huge turtle sleeping in a cave, and sharks playfully chasing each
other. They did not look friendly at all, but fortunately they did not decided to have us for dinner.
But anyway what happened that night under water will remain a fond memory to be retold on
special occasions by all the participants. It will be told with a smile on our faces.1. What information can we get from the passage?_____A. The author enjoyed different colors of fish in Manta.
B. Diving in Maaya Thila is one of the most unforgettable experience for the author.
C. The author dove into Maaya Thila and stayed there for 50 minutes.
D. There were no dangerous sharks in Maaya Thila.2. The author was worried about having lunch on the boat because ______A. the boat was not stopped

C. the boat was not big enough
D. he / she felt sick when eating on boats3. How many diving places are mentioned in the passage?A. 1.    
B. 2.    
C. 3.    
D. 4.4. We learn from the last paragraph that ________.  A. Maaya Thila was only suitable for a night dive
B. many people had been killed at Maaya Thila
C. Maaya Thila is popular among all the participants
D. few people have the courage to dive at Maaya Thila
5. The author wrote this passage to ________.   A. share some wonderful experiences of diving with readers

阅读理解。       I was in New York the other day and rode with a friend in a taxi. When we got out, my friend
said to the driver, "Thank you for the ride. You did a good job of driving."
       The taxi driver was shocked for a second. Then he said, "Are you a wise man or something?"
      "No, my dear man, and I"m not putting you on. I like the way you keep cool in heavy traffic."
      "Yeah," the driver said and drove off.
      "What was that all about?" I asked.
      "I am trying to bring love back to New York," he said. "I believe it"s the only thing that can save
the city."
      " How can one man save New York?"
       "It"s not one man. I believe I have made that taxi driver"s day. Suppose he has 20 fares(乘客).
He"s going to be nice to those 20 fares because someone was nice to him. Those fares in turn will be
kinder to their shopkeepers or waiters or even their own families. Finally the goodwill could go to at
least 1000 people. Now that isn"t bad, is it?"
      "But you"re depending on that taxi driver to pass your goodwill to others."
      "I"m not depending on it," my friend said. "I might deal with ten different people today. If out of ten
I can make three happy, then I can have an effect on 3000 more people."
      "It sounds good on paper," I said, "but I"m not sure it works in practice."
       "Nothing is lost if it doesn"t. It didn"t take any of my time to tell that man he was doing a good job.
He neither received a larger tip nor a smaller tip. If it fell on deaf ears, so what? Tomorrow there will
be another taxi driver I can try to make happy."1. When the driver heard my friend"s words, he at first became____.  A. excited.  
B. angry  
C. pleased    
D. surprised2. Why did the writer"s friend praise the driver?  A. Because he hoped to take the driver"s taxi again.
B. Because he hoped to bring love to the city.
C. Because the driver moved him really.
D. Because the driver often helped him.3. What does the writer think of his friend"s idea?  A. It"s not a good idea.
B. It"s not easy to carry out.
C. It"s funny.
D. It"s a little interesting.4. We can learn from the passage that____. A. the writer tried to make the taxi driver happy.
B. the writer"s friend wanted to be a good taxi driver.
C. the writer"s friend did his best to make the world better.
D. the writer"s plan would fail if the taxi driver didn"t listen to him.

阅读理解。      The phone rang loudly next to her ear as she sat at the computer. Sarah picked it up; hoping
it wasn"t for her, because she really didn"t feel like talking to anyone. She uttered a  monotonous
(沉闷的 ) , " Hello?" " Hi  Sarah! !This is Mindy! What"s up?? Umm, the reason that called was
that I need help with the English assignment. I"ve been having trouble coming up with a topic. "
      Sarah"s shoulders silently drooped as she realized that she had completely forgotten about the
homework to witness or be a part of a situation and write it in down in great detail. She let out a sigh.
       As her best friend continued to talk about her topic ideas, Sarah"s mind drifted. She thought
about how Mindy was moving 500 miles away in less than a month. She thought about how much
she"d miss her friend and how it wouldn"t be the same without her.
         "So, do you have any idea what I should do about this assignment? "Mindy asked, bringing
Sarah out of her fog. She answered her own question, suddenly exclaiming, "I know! !  I"ll describe
what happened today in the lunch line! I just wanted to ring that Jennifer girl"s neck! !  SHE WAS
SO RUDE! ""
         Sarah thought back to earlier in the day when they had been in the lunch line, waiting patiently
and a snotty(自大的)girl pushed her way up in front of them, causing Mindy and Sarah to lose their
place in line.
          "That sounds like a good idea. I wish I"d thought of that, "Sarah says softly. The conversation
ended quickly after that and Sarah was feeling better. She was still sad that her best friend was moving,
but she knew that they would keep in touch and always be close. At just that moment, Sarah was glad
that Mindy called. She now had the perfect topic for her English assignment.1. What do we know about Sarah when the phone rang first ?           A. She was in low spirits.

C. She was doing her assignment.
D. She was repairing the computer.2. Mindy called Sarah to___________.           A. inform Sarah of her leaving
B. say that she was missing Sarah
C. ask Sarah for help
D. comfort Sarah    3. How did Sarah feel about Mindy"s moving?                  A. She was sad that she would miss her friend.
B. She di4n"t quite care about it.
C. She was surprised because Mindy hadn"t told her earlier.
D. She was sad that Mindy would forget her.4. Why was Sarah feeling better after their telephone conversation ended?          A. Because she finally thought of what she could write about.
B. Because she knew that she and Mindy would keep in touch.
C. Because Mindy could act bravely to protect them at school.
D. Because Mindy would never trouble her with a question any more.
