She disappeared(消失)down the hall，and then came back33 a shoebox，a pencil，paper，and scissors. Catherine watched as Mother cut several pieces of paper into squares. “Now，I want you to 34 down all the things you can do，”said Mother. “Like what?”asked Catherine. “Why not start 35 things youve learned in school?”First，she thought of how she could add without counting on her fingers. Then she thought of how she could read bedtime stories all by herself. 36 Catherine began to write and write. Soon she wrote on every square of paper. “Do you think theyll all fit(容得下)in the shoebox?”said Mother. “I hope so，”said Catherine. “It was 37 thinking of all the things I can do. ”“And the next time you feel sad 38 you cant do something，your feel-good shoebox will remind(提醒)you of how much you can do just as 39 did when I was a little girl，”said Mother. “Now lets finish getting dressed for the party. ”“Happy birthday!”the children said to their grandma excitedly when they arrived at Grandmas house. “We brought you cookies，”said Anne. “We 40 them ourselves，”said Sylvia. “Wonderful. ”said Grandma. Then Catherine gave her card to Grandma. “Why,its the prettiest birthday card I've ever seen!”That night，when she lay in bed，Catherine thought about her day.

BA group of frogs(青蛙)were traveling through the forest and two of them fell into a deep hole in the ground. When the rest of frogs saw how deep the hole was，they told the two frogs that they were as good as dead. The two frogs ignored(不理)what they said and tried to jump out of the hole. The other frogs kept telling them to stop jumping，that they were as good as dead. Finally，one frog followed what they were saying and gave up(放弃). He fell down and died. The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Once again，other flogs shouted at him to stop the pain and just die. He jumped evenharder and finally made it out. When he got out，the other frogs said，“Didnt you hear us?”The frog told them that he could not hear very well and he thought they were encouraging(鼓励)him all the time. This story teaches us two lessons. 1. An encouraging word to someone who is down can cheer them up and help them make it through the day. 2. A destructive word to someone who is down can be what it takes to kill them. Be careful of what you say. It is sometimes hard to understand that an encouraging word can go such a long way. Lets take the time to encourage others. 44. What happened to the frogs in the forest?A. The frogs got lost on the way. B. The frogs couldn't hear each other. C. Two of the frogs fell into a deep hole. D. Two of the frogs got angry with others. 45. What is the Chinese meaning of the word“destructive”in the passage?A. 破坏性的B. 激励的C. 精确的D. 愤怒的46.

We must learn to walk before we can run. CA childs birthday party should be one of the most interesting things of the year. The three keys(关键)to a successful childs birthday party are planning，more planning，and even more planning. Childs birthday party games are an important part of every party and we must think about it and get everything ready before the party. Luckily,there is a lot of fun and interesting games to keep children busy and happy，so it is not difficult to come up with more than enough ideas. It is important to remember that children have a very short attention span(注意力). For that reason，one or two activities will not keep the children entertained for a long time. Plan a lot of short，fun games that will meet their different needs. Make sure that the games are right for the children of different ages. Be sure to have enough ideas in mind that it is possible to“throw away”any activity that is not going well. Childs birthday party games should be simple and fun. If a game is started and no one seems to be having any fun，simply end that activity and start another. Children can become successful and happy in change and will not mind a bit. If the party is held indoors，it is a good idea to clear a room for the games. For outdoor parties，make sure that the play area is free from dangers and that the games do not include tree climbing or other activities that probably get children hurt. Finally，remember to have prizes or something special on hand to reward(奖励)the players. They do not need to be large or expensive. Childs birthday party games are about fun，not rewards. Be sure to have prizes not only for the winners of the games，but for every child at the party，so that each child will go home with fun and remember the party time spent with friends. 48. If the parents stop a boring game and start a new one at the party，the children will_. A. get angry with the parentsB. stop playing both gamesC. still have fun with the new gameD. be very excited about the old game49. To have a successful child's birthday party，we will do a lot of things EXCEPT(除了)_.A. make a plan for the partyB. look for a safe play areaC. prepare expensive prizes for each childD. think about enough,short and fun games50. Which is the best title(题目)of the passage?A. The most interesting thingB. Childs birthday party gamesC. Finding a safe area for the partyD. Planning a childs birthday party七、阅读短文，根据短文容。从短文后的五个选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。(共4分，每小题1分) If youve ever tried to catch a bird by putting salt on its tail(尾巴)，you already know it cant be done. But do you know why?Birds can see behind themselves!But they dont have eyes in the backs of their heads. Its the special way birdseyes work. Birds can see whats on the side，in front of them and behind them，all at the sanle time. 51. _Compare a birds eye to your own. You can find your eye is having a round shape，like an orange. But a birds eye is flat and that helps the bird keep more things in sight(视野)at one time. Another way a birds eye is different，is that it doesnt move like yours. 52. _This is called“bobbing”，and“bobbing”helps some birdssee the same thing many times over. That way the bird can decide whether(是否)what it's seeing is something it wants to eator something that wants to eat it. Many birds，like the owl，have very big eyes. In fact，owls have eyes as big as peoples. 53. _Owls can turn their heads easily around to the back. And，since they hunt(捕猎)in the dark，owls can see better in the dark than in the light. Hawks and other birds that hunt small animals have eyes designed to help them hunt. They keep their eyes on dinner when they dive(move downwards fast). 54. _While owls and other birds that eat at night can see more clearly in the dark,the birds that eat in the day can see colors better. Whether birds look for their food at night or during the day, they all have excellent eyesight. 八、阅读短文，根据短文容回答以下问题。(共6分，55至58小题1分. 59小题2分)Winter is coming. Its time again for coughing(咳嗽)and sneezing(打喷嚏). You cant keep away from colds completely，but if you know more about how theyre caught and passed from one person to another，you can make your winter healthier. Lets test how much you know about your colds. To keep away from colds，stay inside as much as possible during cold weather. False. Cold weather does not make colds startviruses(病毒)do. There are more than 100 different cold viruses. Children most probably catch colds because they have no protection against more cold viruses in school. When you sneeze，cover(遮盖)your nose and mouth with your hand.False. This usually helps colds move over an area. When you sneeze，cold viruses are carried through the air and can give the cold to other people around you. Colds may also be passed in another way. A person who sneezes covers his mouth，touches an object(such as a glass or telephone)，another person picks up the object and then touches her mouth，nose，or eyes. Its better to sneeze into a tissue(纸巾)and then throw the tissue away. If you dont have a tissue，sneeze into your sleeve(袖子)，or turn your head toward the floor. Then wash your hands. Chicken soup helps you feel better when you have a cold. True. Studies have shown that hot drinks can help to make breathing easier. Aspirin will make headaches better for a short time. These ways often help you feel better，but you wont get over a cold faster. Your bodys natural defenses(抵抗力)，along with time and rest，are the only known cure(疗法)，but you can help stop colds by eating lots of fruits and vegetables. 55. Do hot drinks help you feel better when you have a cold?56. Which can make you catch a cold，viruses or cold weather?57. What should you do when you sneeze without a tissue?58. What food is helpful when you have a cold?59.
