阅读理解。     For centuries, the body"s blood has been linked closely with the emotions. People who show no human
emotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killer. For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone"s life as nothing.
     Cold can affect other parts of the body. The expression"get cold feet" has nothing to do with cold or your
feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agree to be
president of an organization. But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the
organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you
understand the situation.
     The expression "give someone the cold shoulder" probably comes from the physical act of turning your
back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face. You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who
has not kept a promise he made to you. Or, to someone who has lied about you to others.
     A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love
or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone. Someone who is a cold fish could be
cold-hearted. Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy (同情心).Several popular songs in
recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of
their lovers.
     Out in the cold means not getting something that everybody else got. A person might say that everybody
but him got a pay raise---he was left out in the cold. And it is not a pleasant place to be. 1. There are _____ expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passage.A. 3
B. 4
C. 6
D. 7 2. When you refuse to speak to a man and treat him in a distant way, you may express by "_____". A. I give him the cold shoulder
B. I think he is a cold-blooded man
C. I think he is a cold fish
D. I"m likely to get cold feet 3. If Sue shows absolutely no reaction (反应) to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa,
    you will say _____.A. she is a cold-blooded killer
B. she gets cold feet
C. she is a cold fish
D. she is out in the cold4. We can use the expression "_____" to describe a man who hurts his lover without mercy. A. cold-blooded
B. cold shoulder
C. cold feet
D. cold-hearted5. The topic of this passage is about _____.A. the relationship between cold and our body
B. some expressions about friendship
C. some expressions connected with cold
D. how cold weather comes into being

阅读理解。     These days, there"s a popular cartoon named happy sheep and gray wolf. It"s an excellent Chinese cartoon,
which tells the stories of happy sheep and gray wolf. The poor gray wolf is always trying hard to catch the
sheep, but the sheep could always run away from the danger. The sheep are so clever and lovely that the
cartoon gets all the children"s love. At the same time, the cartoon is full of humor. The children could learn
more knowledge and enjoyment from it.
     The cartoon is shown repeatedly on many TV channels. The Zhejiang Channel broadcasts the cartoon on
weekends and the vacations; the Sichuan Channel broadcasts the cartoon for an hour in the evening; the
Shandong Channel broadcasts it in the morning, while CCTV-3 broadcasts it at noon every day.

way to work out any problem and save his friends. What"s more, there"re many things about happy sheep and
gray wolf, such as the books, the toys, the pencil-box, the clothings, and so on. Children are happy to buy
them. On the other hand, many adults (大人) also like the cartoon, for the gray wolf is regarded as the perfect
husband with skills and effort. He invents many things just to catch a sheep for his wife. Though he is often
hit by his wife, he always makes her happy without complaining (抱怨).
     We can learn more from the cartoon, including the skills, the stories, the details, the humor, and so on. We

the children spend more time on watching TV and it is bad for their health and study. 1. The underlined word "cartoon" in the first paragraph is ______. A. a kind of picture

阅读理解。     From Monday until Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in the evenings and on weekends
they are free to relax and enjoy themselves. Some watch TV or go to the movies; others take part in sports. It
depends on individual interests. There are many different ways to spend our spare time.
     Almost everyone has some kinds of hobbies. It may be anything from collecting stamps to making model
airplanes. Some hobbies are very expensive, but others don"t cost anything at all. Some collections are worth a
lot of money; others are valuable only to their owners.
     I know a man who has a coin collection worth several thousand dollars. A short time ago he bought a rare
fifty-cent piece worth $250! He was very happy about his buying and thought the price was reasonable. On
the other hand, my youngest brother collects matchboxes. He has almost 600 of them but I doubt if they are
worth any money. However, to my brother they are very valuable. Nothing makes him happier than to find a
new matchbox for his collection. That"s what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our
spare time simply for the fun of it. The value in dollars is not important, but the pleasure it gives us is. 1. The underlined word "individual" in the first paragraph most probably means______.A. attractive

阅读理解。     It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents. They say that their
parents don"t understand them. They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways, that they are too serious and too strict with their children, and that they seldom give their children a free hand.
     It is true that parents often find it difficult to win their children"s trust and they tend to forget how they
themselves felt when young. For example, young people like to act on the spot without much thinking. It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation. Older people worry
more easily. Most of them plan things ahead, at least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to
be upset by something unexpected.
     When you want your parents to let you do something, you will have better success if you ask before you
really start doing it.
     Young people often make their parents angry with their choice in clothes, in entertainment and in music. But
they do not mean to cause any trouble; it is just that they feel cut off from the older people"s world, into which
they have not yet been accepted. That"s why young people want to make a new culture of their own, and if
their parents do not like their music or enter-tainment or clothes or their way of speech, this will make the
young people extremely happy.
     Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to say,"Yes" to what you do.
All you want is to be left alone and do what you like. It is natural enough, after being a child for so many years, when you were completely under your parents" control.
     If you plan to control your life, you"d better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you.
If your parents see that you have a high sense of responsibility, they will certainly give you the right to do what
you want to do. 1. According to the passage, young people prefer to ________.A. ask for advice before they really start to do anything
B. do things without thinking carefully ahead
C. think in the same way as their parents do
D. be very strict with themselves 2. Young people like to have clothes, entertainment and music in their way, because ________. A. they want to make their parents happy
B. they try to get their parents to believe them
C. they want to try on something new and look different from the older
D. they want to test whether they are cleverer than old people 3. According to the passage, young people want to make a new culture of their own, because ________. A. they don"t feel they belong to the world of the older people
B. they do not want to get into trouble
C. they feel they are as clever as old people
D. they want to show they have grown up 4. If a young man intends to control his own life, it"s better for him to ________. A. do everything according to his own wish

阅读理解。     A long weekend is a great opportunity to do something a little different. Many people use a long weekend for
a getaway, a short trip to leave the stress of their everyday lives behind and explore, learn, or relax.
     Hotel Romance
     Many hotels and resorts feature something special to start the getaway, such as champagnes, flowers, or
a fruit basket in the room on arrival. Getaway packages usually include a room with something special, a heart
shaped bed, for example. Additional benefits could be room service meals or other private dining, plus tickets
or discounts for local attractions.
     Visit a Spa
     Spa getaway can take place at a location that focuses only on spa services or at a hotel that offers a spa as
one of its features. Some spas emphasize treatments fit for their geographic area or a local attraction. A spa in
a grape growing region might provide grape juice masks, or a hotel near a hot spring could offer mineral baths.
Most spas offer a range of massage, health and beauty treatments, so a spa getaway can be relaxing with other
benefits.
     Learn a Skill
     A long weekend may not be enough time to become an expert at something new, but it provides a way for
people to begin their explorations. Some organizations offer intensive courses that last two or three days. People
with special interests can get away from their routines while learning such things as how to make beer, speak
a new language, or take better photos.
     Help Others
     Some organizations cooperate with businesses to have accommodations (住宿) and activities for short-term
volunteers. Most volunteer vacations involve ecology friendly or charity activities. A volunteer getaway is a way
to relieve stress and help others at the same time.
     Stay in a National Park
     For those who want to relax in a rural environment, a national park fits the bill. Most national parks provide
camping areas for tents and trailers. Several have cabins (小屋) within the parks available to rent. A getaway to
a national park provides privacy, stress relief, and the time to get to know some important natural resources. 1. The underlined word "getaway" in this passage most probably means _____.A. an exciting exploration
