阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选择最佳选项。
Blue Ribbons of Honor
A teacher in New York decided to honor her students by telling them the difference they each made. First she
thanked to each of them how they made a difference to her and the class. Then she gave each student three blue
ribbons with gold letters reading, “Who I Am Makes a Difference.” The students went out to find somebody to
honor. The person would keep a ribbon and give the extra ones to a third person to keep it going.
One boy went to a manager in a nearby company and honored him for helping him with his career planning.
Later that day the manager went in to see his boss. He told him that he deeply admired him for being a creative
talent. He gave the surprised boss the last extra ribbon and asked him to find somebody else to honor.
That night the boss went home to his 14-year-old son. He told the boy what had happened and said, “I want to
honor you, son. My days are really busy and when I come home I don’t pay a lot of attention to you. Sometimes I
shout at you for not getting good enough grades in school and for your bedroom being a mess, but somehow
tonight, I just want to let you know that you do make a difference to me. Besides your mother, you are the most
important person in my life. You’re a great kid and I love you!”
Hearing this, the boy started to cry and couldn’t stop. He looked up at his father and said through his tears, “I
was planning on leaving home tomorrow, Dad, because I didn’t think you loved me. Now I don’t need to.”
29. What did the teacher give to the students to honor them?
A. Career planning. B. Blue ribbons.

We all know that money can’t make us happy, but many times we act as if we’d be happier with a bit more
money. We are trained to want to be richer; we are trained to want the latest style that television tells us; we want to
earn more money because then we’ll have a good life.
But none of that will make us happier. And the sad thing is that it can take us decades of pursuing(追求)
wealth and expensive things before we realize that. So what will bring us happiness? Luckily, there are three things
that don’t cost anything. Here they are.
Good relationships. We have a human need to be close to other human beings. Having good, supportive
friendships, a strong marriage or loving relationships with our family members will make us much more likely to
be happy. Therefore, take time, today, to stay with your loved ones, to tell them what they mean to you, to listen to
them and to develop your relationships with them.
Positive thinking. Optimism(乐观) is one of the best signs of people who lead a happy life. Happy people like
the feel of controlling their lives. So why not make positive thinking a habit? In fact, this should be one of the first
habits you develop.
Flow. This is a popular concept(观念) on the Internet these days—the state(状态) we enter when we are
completely focused on the work or task. Having work and leisure(休闲) that gets you in this state of flow will
almost undoubtedly lead to happiness. People find the greatest enjoyment not when they are doing a completely
mindless task, but when they’re interested in a mindful challenge.
If you are interested in some kind of work and fond of some kind of hobbies, it is not a bad idea. Turn off the
TV—this is the opposite of flow—and then go outside and do something that truly makes you active.
33. To get on well with our family members, we can ________.A. make more money for them
B. buy expensive things for them
C. stay with them and communicate with them
D. tell them everything that happens to us in our daily life
34. According to the passage, the first habit we should develop is ________.
A. to have a good hobby B. to do things carefully
C. to make positive thinking a habit D. to listen to your family members patiently
35. If we want to be happy, we should ________.
.
A turn off the TV B. do our best to work
C. lose ourselves in playing D. work hard and have a hobby
36. The passage mainly talks about ________.
A. why we’d be happy B. what makes us happy
.
C how to make money D. how to make friends
D
Many people think sports are just for winning and honor, but there is a lot more you can gain from (get out of)
them. I have learned over the past years that sometimes when I lose, I get a lot more out of it than winning. Also, I
find a lot of times in sports, people are getting too caught up in the game instead of just having fun. The real
purpose of sports is to have fun and learn life lessons along the way.
I greatly encourage you to be a part of the school sports. Even if you are not the best, you can still have fun.
Sports give people a great and healthy way of spending an afternoon, instead of lying around playing video games
or even getting into bad things. Sports also give us a sense of achievement. There isn’t a better feeling than to have
done something fun and productive for my day.
I think that we all need sports to give us courage. If we try hard in sports, we usually do well. If we did the
same in study, we would all be champions. Another reason why I encourage you to play sports is that it’s just fun.
Without sports, our lives would just be boring. So as you may be able to tell, sports are amazing!
Our coaches not only teach us to play sports, but show class and good sportsmanship while playing them. It’s
never fun when you lose to have the competitor rub it in your face. That’s why our coaches teach us to show class
when we lose; also, when coaches get onto you, don’t get down. They only want to see you improve and learn
from what they say. When you do badly and they don’t shout loudly is when you should start worrying because
they are giving up on you.
All in all, sports are great! They bring out the best and worst of a lot of us. However, we can’t let sports get too
serious to where it brings down all the fun. So to have the most fun in sports. you just need to try your best and notworry so much about the winning or losing.
37. The underlined phrase “get onto you” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.
A. point out your mistakes B. take up your time
C. worry about your future D. look into your privacy
38. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Sports bring us great fun only if we have the talent.
.
B Sports give us the best way of spending free time.
C. We can get more out of winning than losing.
D. We should take pleasure in doing sports.
39. What is the best title of this passage?
A. Are we too caught up? B. To win or to gain?
C. Are sports really great? D. For honor or for health?
八、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。(每题2分，共10分)
Passage 1
What can we do to help protect the environment? It seems useless to just pick up a piece of trash (垃圾), but
what will happen if you keep doing it every day? Tommy Kleyn, an ordinary man from the Netherlands, may give
you the answer.
Tommy Kleyn walked past a polluted river on his way to work every day. It used to be a beautiful view, but
the trash on the bank made it dirty and smelly. So Tommy decided to pick up the trash along the river a little bit at a
time after work. “It took me about 30 minutes to fill one garbage(垃圾) bag with trash, but one garbage bag didn't
seem helpful in a place as polluted as this. I decided to fill one bag of trash each day as I passed by," Tommy said.
Every day, Tommy took pictures of the river and shared them on his Facebook page. To his surprise, in just six
days, he had made great progress with his cleanup effort. He felt happy and kept doing it. Gradually, more and
more people knew about Tommy's story. Other people in the community began following in his footsteps and
cleaning up trash on their way home, too.
“The idea is to encourage people to fill one garbage bag with litter each day. It only takes 30 minutes, but it really
makes a difference and you will be amazed at how good you feel afterwards," he said.
People from all over the world have been moved and inspired(激发) by Tommy's story. No effort is useless if
we keep doing it every day. Ordinary people like you and me can also make a difference to the world we live in if
we take actions right now.

Dear Li Hua,
How is it going?
I’m glad that I had your email yesterday. To tell you the truth, I feel stressed out at school these days. First, I
study hard, but I still can’t get good grades. Then, I don’t sleep well at night and I often have headaches and feel
sleepy in class. Besides, my parents can’t understand me at all. They always think I’m wasting time. Sometimes I
even argue with them. That makes us unhappy. I need your help now.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours,
Peter
