A
Edward rose early on the Newyear morning. He looked in every room and wished a Happy
New Year to his family. Then he ran into the street to repeat that to those he might meet.
When he came back, his father gave him two bright, new silver dollars.
His face lighted up as he took them. He had wished for a long time to buy some pretty
books that he had seen at the bookstore.
He left the house with a light heart, expecting to buy the books. As he ran down the street,
he saw a poor family.
“I wish you a Happy New Year, ” said Edward, as he was passing on. The man shook his
head.
“You are not from this country, ”said Edward. The man again shook his head, for
he could not understand or speak his language. But he pointed to his mouth and to
the children shaking with cold, as if (好像) to say, “These little ones have had
nothing to eat for a long time.”
Edward quickly understood that these poor people were in trouble. He took out his dollars,
and gave one to the man, and the other to his wife. They were excited and said something in
their language, which doubtless meant, “We thank you so much that we will remember you all
the time.”
When Edward came home, his father asked what books he had bought. He hung his head a
moment, but quickly looked up.
“I have bought no books, ” he said. “I gave my money to some poor people, who seemed tobe very hungry then.” He went on, “I think I can wait for my books till next New Year.”
“My dear boy, ” said his father, “here are some books for you, more as a prize for your
goodness of heart than as a Newyear gift.”
“I saw you give the money cheerfully to the poor German family. It was nice for a little boy
to do so. Be always ready to help others and every year of your life will be to you a Happy
New Year.”
41. Why did the poor man shake his head when Edward spoke to him?
A. He couldn't understand the boy.
B. He wouldn't accept the money.
C. He didn't like the boy's language.
D. He was too cold to say anything.
42. How much did Edward give the poor family?
A. One dollar.
B. Two dollars.
C. Three dollars.
D. Four dollars.
43. We know that Edward ____ from the passage.
A. got a prize for his kind heart
B. had to buy his books next year

B
These years begging is surely a big business in some parts of the world. And it
has proven (证明)to be so in Dubai (迪拜), where an old beggar was found making as
much as around 73, 500 dollars a month. However, it's interesting that the beggar was
caught by the police.
According to the report, besides that old beggar, another fiftyeight beggars in Dubai were
sent to the police station during the first three months of 2016. Begging isn't allowed in Dubai,
so the local police often take action to catch the beggars around the city.
“We found that most of the beggars had entered our country as shortterm tourists. But they
travelled around to collect as much money as possible here, not to enjoy travelling, ” a
policeman called AI Badiawi said.Can being a beggar in Dubai really make so much money? “More money might
be collected on Fridays when beggars are in front of mosques (清真寺),”AI Badiawi
said. “It seems possible for you to make much money by begging in Dubai.”
Dubai has been carrying out yearlong operations to stop begging along the city streets. In
2015, up to 197 beggars were caught. The police said that street begging might make the city
unsafe and bring many problems.
44. Most of the beggars in Dubai are ____.
A. local people
B. poor kids
C. longterm tourists
D. shortterm tourists
45. How many beggars were caught during the first three months of 2016?
A. 58.
B. 197.
C. 59.
D. 256.
46. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A. Beggars can make much money in Dubai.
B. The police in Dubai think begging may make their city unsafe.
C. All tourists would like to go to Dubai to beg for much money.
D. People in Dubai might be rich and they are friendly to beggars.
47. What's the best title for the passage?
A. Begging in Dubai
B. The policemen in Dubai
C. Travelling around Dubai
D. Making money in Dubai
C
Reading makes one wise, but many adults seldom read. They say they are too busy to have
time to read. Sure. They have work to do. They have families to support. But these are only
excuses. The fact is that they haven't got a reading habit. A reading habit isn't something
natural.
It needs to be trained. And it's never too late to develop a reading habit.
Scientists believe proper books are very important for children to develop a goodreading habit. A book in rich colors and with simple patterns(图案) such as lines and
circles is a good choice for babies of three months old. When they reach six months,
they will become interested in simple storybooks in rich colors.
When children get old enough to read by themselves, it's necessary to buy books that are
both interesting and right for them to understand. Books which are either too easy or too
difficult are not good for kids to keep their reading habits.
Only buying books for children isn't enough. For kids, parents are their first teachers. So
parents should read books to set an example. Children will follow them. Scientists say
imitating the adults is a born skill. And it is the most valuable way for children to learn. This
will certainly help them develop a reading habit in the end.
48. According to the writer, many adults seldom read because they ____.
A. don't have enough time
B. have to work all the time
C. haven't got a reading habit
D. have to support the family
49. The underlined word “imitating” probably means ____.
A. copying
B. reading
C. testing
D. missing
50. We can learn from the passage that ____.
A. storybooks are better than books in colors
B. a reading habit comes from certain training
C. a threemonthold kid likes simple stories
D. too easy books help keep a reading habit

It was near Christmas during my first semester teaching in a new school. I love my small
special class more than any group I had taught in the past. They were hungry for knowledge
and I was enjoying teaching.
Other teachers had told me that our children were from poor families and not to expect any
child to bring a Christmas gift. In fact, I wasn't expecting any gifts.
Imagine my surprise when every child brought me a gift on the day before our holiday
break. First, I got a muchloved stuffed monkey from a shy girl. I was told, “He is my favorite,
but I love you and I want him to be with you, Miss Taylor.” How thrilled I was!
Next came a new set of Christmas tree lights that was “missing” from a mother's
cupboard.
Finally, I came to one little boy's gift which I had never received. It was an old,
dirty and broken Christmas storybook. Just when I wanted to express my happiness, I
was interrupted(打断)by the giver, “And see, it is new! It still has the price tag.”
When other children laughed at him, I stopped them and said, “Oh, books are good in that
way. The story is always new if you have not read it before. Now, let's share one together.”
Everyone listened quietly as I read the most wonderful Christmas story of my life.
I still keep those Christmas gifts. They always remind me of my lovely kids.

二、本题你将听到一段独白，读两遍，请根据所听内容，用单词或短语完成下列各题。(每
空限填一个单词。)
We all need a healthy environment, but we produce waste every day and it doesharm to our environment. Though we are young, we can still do something to help.
Don't waste things. This saves money and reduces pollution. Before we buy
something new, think whether it is really necessary—or maybe the old one will be just as
good!
Use things for as long as possible. When we buy things, make sure that they last a
long time. We should look after them so that they will last, and we should repair them if
we can instead of throwing them away.
Though it takes energy to change something into something else, it's better than
throwing things away or burning them. So please remember these three words: reduce,
reuse and recycle.
听力答案:
一、1～5: ABCBC
6～10: AABCA
11～15: BCACB
二、16.healthy 17. saves; reduces
18. throwing 19.necessary
20. recycle

九、One possible version:
How to protect our environment?
As a student, we should try our best to protect our environment. Now the pollution is
more and more serious. Too many buses and cars can be seen on the road. So we should go to
school by bike or on foot. And we should also ask our parents to ride bikes to work. We should
reuse water. For example, when I finish washing the clothes, I use the water to clean the floor.
At school, I think saving paper is necessary, so I often make full use of paper. At the same
time, I never use plastic bags. And I advise my parents to plant some trees behind my house.
It's important for us to live a lowcarbon life to protect the environment.
