But he doesn't really look scared. " Jim said to the woman."Dave, get over here!" Jim called over his shoulder to the fire truck driver. Dave walked over and looked where Jim was pointing.“How did he get up there?,，Jim shrugged 耸肩,similarly puzzled, “Do you suppose we could get a blanket and convince him to jump? Dave shrugged in response, “I don't see why not."Jim looked up at the black mass on the top of the flagpole, the American flag waving proudly beneath him. It was a cat, and he regarded the people gathering below as if they were his subjects 臣民and he their king, his yellow eyes scanning his surroundings with apparent disinterest.When a blanket was spread out below the cat, Jim and Dave began striking the flagpole. The cat looked down, and then gazed into the sky as if he was 1ooking for something. Jim and Dave followed his gaze.

That was four years ago. Today all three generations regard the move as a success, giving them a closer relationship than they would have had in separate cities.No statistics show the number of grandparents like Garza who are moving closer to adult children and grandchildren. Yet there is evidence suggesting that the trend is growing. Even President Obamas mother-in-law, Marian Robinson, has agreed to leave Chicago and move into the White House to help care for her granddaughters. According to a study grandparents , 83 percent of the people said Mrs. Robinsons decision will influence grandparents in the American family. Two-thirds believe more families will follow the example of Obamas family.“In the 1960s we were all a little wild and couldnt get away from home far enough or fast enough to prove we could do it on our own, says Christine Crosby, publisher of grate magazine for grandparents . “We now realize how important family is and how important it is to be near them, especially when youre raising children.Moving is not for everyone. Almost every grandparent wants to be with his or her grandchildren and is willing to make sacrifices, but sometimes it is wiser to say no and visit frequently instead. Having your grandchildren far away is hard, especially knowing your adult child is struggling, but giving up the life you know may be harder. 28.

BIt improved her living conditions.CIt enabled her to make more friends.DIt helped her know more new places.29.What was the reaction of the public to Mrs Robinsons decision?A17% expressed their support for it.BFew people responded sympathetically.C83% believed it had a bad influence.DThe majority thought it was a trend.30.

What does the author suggest the grandparents do in the last paragraph?A. Make decisions in the best interests of their own.B. Ask their children to pay more visits to them.C. Sacrifice for their struggling children. D. Get to know themselves better.DIf you are a fruit grower or would like to become one take advantage of Apple Day to see whats around. Its called Apple Day but in practice its more like Apple Month. The day itself is on October 21, but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain.Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples. To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans. Although it doesnt taste of anything special, its still worth a try, as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cats Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions. One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette, but youll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it, so its a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events, you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions, and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园). If you want to have a real orchard experience, try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale, near Faversham in Kent.32. What can people do at the apple events?A. Attend experts lectures B. Visit fruit-loving familiesC. Plant fruit trees in an orchardD. Taste many kinds of apples33. What can we learn about Decio?A. It is a new variety B. It has a strange lookC. It is rarely seen now D. It has a special taste34. What does the underlined phrase a pipe dream in Paragraph 3 mean?A. A practical idea B. A vain hopeC. A brilliant plan D. A selfish desire35. What is the authors purpose in writing the text?A. To show how to grow apples B. To introduce an apple festivalC. To help people select apples D. To promote apple research第二节 共5小题；每题2分，总分值10分根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。How to read more and learn moreThese days more and more Chinese people enjoy sending and receiving message on the phoneIt can help them get the latest news and communicate with friendsBut I think I should read more books besides the textbooks.
