A
When you feel sad, tears will come down from your eyes. When you are happy,
especially when you laugh hard, tears will also come down from your eyes. But tears have a
more important job than showing your feelings.
Tears keep your eyes clean and healthy. They wash away dirt and germs(细菌) just like
bath. Your eyes also need tears to keep them wet. And eyes must be wet so that they can move
smoothly. Your eyes are busy looking here and there all day long. They move quickly from
one thing to another. If you didn’t have tears, your eyes couldn’t move, and soon you would
be blind.
Maybe you don’t like tears, but your eyes can’t do without them.
1. The story tells us ____.
A. what makes people blind B. why people have tears
C. why people cry when they are sad D. what tears are
2. Tears help you by ____.
A. showing how you feel B. making your face clean
C. washing things from your eyes D. making your eyes bright
3. If your eyes were not wet, you could not____.
A. look at things clearly B. laugh and cry
C. keep clean D. show your feelings
4. When you are happy or sad, you may ____.
A. look at things quickly B. wash away dirt and germs
C. have tears in your eyes D. move your eyes quickly
5. The sentence “your eyes can’t do without them” means ____.
A. your eyes like having baths very much B. your eyes like tears very much
C. your eyes can’t work without tears D. your eyes can’t open without them

Tuesday, 1st September
I had mixed feelings today, nervous, worried, happy, excited… My heart went down
when Miss Chan, our head teacher, said that Matthew and Beth, two students from
England, would spend three months with us! I was worried that I had to speak English so
much! But at the end of the school day, I was happier than I thought: the morning with
them today was more enjoyable than I expected.
Today is the most unforgettable first day I have had! Matthew is fantastic! His English
is clearer and easier to listen to than I thought. The other English student, Beth, is the most
helpful girl I’ve ever met. There were lots of things to do on the first day. Beth offered to
help Miss Chan put up all the notices. Of course, some of the credit (功劳) should also go
to ME because I translated some of the notices for her. Miss Chan praised us!
We finished all the preparations 10 minutes earlier than expected, then Beth and I
talked for a while, Matthew sang several English songs and did some stand-up comedy (单
人喜剧表演) at the party. We all praised him. When the bell rang to end the first school
day, none of us wanted to leave.
When I went back home, I had a little headache. I have probably spoken more English
today than the whole of last year.
It was really a happy day! I hope our friendship can continue, even after they gone
back to England!
6. The writer felt ______ when he heard the news from Miss Chan.
A. excited
B. angry
C. fantastic
D. worried
7. Beth helped Miss Chan with the ______.
A. comedy
B. speeches C. notices
D. translation

C. sang several songs
D. made a preparation
9. Matthew and Beth ______ on the first day.
A. spoke much Chinese

C. had a little headache
D. forgot to leave the school

【答案与解析】
I. 单项选择。
1. B。同级相比，用as ... as 结构，中间要用形容词或副词的原级，因为是修饰动词
study,
因此用副词。故选B。
2. B。原句中girl 为可数名词单数，使用句型such + a(n) + adj. + n. 或so + adj. +a(n)
+ n. ;第二个空考查be afraid of doing sth. 害怕做某事。故选B。
3. A。though 意为“虽然，尽管”，是从属连词，引导让步状语从句；but 意为“但是，
然而”，是并列连词，引导转折关系的并列句；because 意为“因为”，引导原因状语
从句。根据分析，句意应为“虽然张老师给我们提出了一些好的建议，但是我们依然没
有处理好那些问题”。故选A。

参考范文：
Not everything is interesting in life, but we still have to face them.
Sometimes I feel worried when I make some silly mistakes in the exams. Sometimes I feel
bored when my parents don’t allow me to play. And sometimes I feel annoyed because I have so
much homework to do.
That kind of feeling is really bad. So I will do something different to relax myself or think
about other things. For example, I can listen to the radio and some soft music. Besides, I often
talk with my good friends. Then I become happy again. You can have a try!
