（共20小题；选择题5小题，每小题1分；非选择题15小

A) 选择题：阅读下面的短文，根据文意从每题所给的四个选项
（A、B、C和D）中，选出能回
答所提问题的最佳选项。(Read the following
passage which is followed by five questions or
unfinished statements. For each of them there
are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose
the one that fits best according to the
passage.)
J.K. Rowling is the writer of the
Harry Potter series, which
is now one of the
best-sellers.
J.K. Rowling was born in
Bristol on July 31st, 1965. She
has one sister
who is two years younger than her. Both girls
loved listening to their father reading
bedtime stories to them.
They especially loved
stories about magical worlds. Rowling
wrote
her first story, called Rabbit at the age of six.
After she graduated from the university,
Rowling worked
as a translator in London.
During that time, on a long train
trip in the
summer of 1990, the idea came to her of a boy who
has magic but doesn't know it.
In 1992,
Rowling began to teach English. She lived with her
daughter, Jessica, and spent much
time
finishing the first Harry Potter book for young
readers. It appeared in June, 1997. To
her
surprise, the book was very successful. The film
came out in November 2001. Now the Harry
Potter series is popular with people of all
ages and about 60 million books have been sold
in 200 countries.
Why has the series
been so successful? There are a few reasons. Many
other magical
stories take place in faraway
lands or in the past or future times. But Harry
lives in modern
England. He's also a very
normal boy: polite, friendly, brave and clever.
When other children
read the story about
Harry, they can imagine being like him.
J.K. Rowling is very happy with her success. She's
writing full time and she's really
enjoying
life. She says she will go on living a normal life
with her daughter and writing
children's
books.
51. From the passage, we know that
J.K. Rowling _________.
A. loved
playing volleyball B. had two
sisters
C. wrote many poems
D. was born in 1965
52. The first Harry
Potter book came out in _________.
A.
July, 1965 B. the summer of 1990 C. June,
1997 D. November,
2001
53. The Harry
Potter series is _________.
A. written
for young people B. only enjoyed by
children
C. about an old woman
D. not very popular
54. In Rowling's novel,
Harry lives in _________.
A. the past
B. a faraway village C. modern England D.
the future

different from other magical stories?
A.
There are magical things. B. It took much
time to finish.
C. It has seven books.
D. The stories happened in the modern world.

B)
非选择题：阅读下列短文，然后按短文后的要求完成所给出的题目。(Read the following
three passages. Each passage is followed by
several questions. Respond to the questions
according to the passage.)
A
Do you
think animals can predict (预示) the weather or
other
natural events? Farmers living in the
countryside think so.
For hundreds of years,
they have observed animals.
They think
animals' behaviour can be connected to future
weather conditions or events. For example, if
swans fly
into the wind, a hurricane (飓风) is
coming. Or, if cows
lie down, a rainstorm is
coming. There are many traditional
stories
connecting animals and natural events. Many people
think that these stories are just folklore
(民间传说),
traditional stories and beliefs
without scientific evidence (根据). Scientists,
however, are
beginning to take another look at
some of these ideas.
Kiyoshi Shimamura is
a Japanese earthquake researcher. He noticed an
increase in dog
bites a short time before
earthquakes hit. Then, he did an investigation of
twelve public health
centres in Kobe, Japan.
These health centres treated people after the 1995
earthquake. He
noticed some interesting
information about the month before the big
earthquake: treatment for
animals bites had
increased. In fact, aggressive (好斗的) behaviour in
dogs, such as biting
and barking loudly,
jumped 60 percent!
People noticed other
changes in animal behaviour before the earthquake
as well. For
example, fish began swimming
together in large groups, but only in the middle
of the water
and not near the edges. Also,
birds flew away from their nests for many days,
leaving their
eggs unprotected. This animal
behaviour suggests that animals may be able to
predict natural
events better than people.
Questions 56—60: Fill in the blanks using
proper words from the passage above.
Some
people think that animals can predict the weather.
Other people think this is folklore
and that
there is no (56) _________ evidence. However, one
researcher from Japan (57) _________
that dogs
were more aggressive before an (58) _________.
Other animals also showed (59)
_________ in
behaviour before the earthquake. This evidence
(60) _________ that there is
connection
between animals' behaviour and the weather.
B
Malls (购物商场) are popular places for Americans
to go to.
Some people spend so much time at
malls that they are called
“mall rats”. Mall
rats shop until they drop in the
hundreds of
stores under one roof.
People like malls
for many reasons. They feel safe
because malls
have police stations of private security
guards. Parking is usually free, and the
temperature inside
4
is always
fine. (61) The newest malls have beautiful rest
areas with waterfalls and tall green
trees.
The largest mall in the United States is
the Mall of America in Minnesota. It covers
4.2 million square feet. It has 350 stores,
eight night clubs, and a seven-acre park! There
are parking spaces for 12,750 cars. About
750,000 people shop there every week.
The
first indoor mall in the United States was built
in 1965 in Edina, Minnesota. People
love doing
all their shopping in one place. More malls are
built where people come to do many
things.
They shop, of course, they also eat in food courts
that have food from all over the
world. They
see movies at the theatres. Some people even get
their daily exercise by doing
the new sport of
“mall walking”. Others go to malls to meet
friends.
In some malls, people can see a
doctor or a dentist and even go to the church. In
other
words, people can do just about
everything in malls. (62) Now people can even live
in their
favourite shopping malls.
Questions 61—62: Translate the underlined
sentences into Chinese.
Questions 63—65:
Answer the following questions.
63. What is
the meaning of “mall rats”?
64. How many
people shop in the Mall of America in Minnesota
every week?
65. What can people do in
American malls nowadays?
C

Questions 66—70: Answer the
following questions or complete the statements
according
to the information above.
66.
When was the KEBAB first eaten according to the
passage?
67. _________ was invented by Native
Americans.
68. _________ is the highest in
calories per portion.
69. _________ is one of
the very cheapest food of all fast foods.
70.
Which of the four is deep fried in oil before
being wrapped in bread?

VII. 写作（Writing）（共2小题，计２5分。其中A题10分，B题15分）
A) One possible version:
My teacher
My English teacher Miss Lee is very kind and
easygoing. She helps me a lot with my study. She
takes good care
of us. She often helps me with
my English. When I'm in trouble, she always
encourages me to face my difficulties
and
gives me some good advice. Once I failed in an
important English exam and was upset. She cheered
me up
and told me some good ways to improve my
English. With her help, I made great progress in
English. I'm very
thankful for all that she
has done for me. I'll try my best to live up to
her expectations.
B) Two possible
versions:
One opinion: I think doing
housework is important for us. Firstly, in a
family Mother does the most work.
If you don't
want your mother to be too tired, do some
housework to help her. Secondly, housework can
help
us to do things by ourselves. Doing it
will help us to take care of ourselves when we
leave home one day.
Thirdly, housework can
relax us. Every day after school, I usually feel
tired after studying hard. So I can
relax
myself while I'm doing housework.
Do
housework!Enjoy it!
Another opinion: I don't
think it's necessary for us to do housework.
First, study is more important than
housework.
If we do housework, we won't have enough time to
study. If we often do housework, we won't do well
in our lessons. Second, at school we study all
day, and at home we are busy doing a lot of
homework. Housework
9
makes us
very tired and it's bad for our health. Third,
housework is too difficult for us. We can't do it
well. It's really a waste of time.
