A

One of my favorite things about December is that Christmas films are shown on the television. They remind me of being with my family in a warm sitting room, enjoying being together and eating chocolates. Here are my favorite English language Christmas films:

Love，Actually Love, Actually is a fantastic film. It is made up of lots of different stories,

various characters and their relationships with one another. It’s a romantic comedy so even if some parts are a bit sad, there are plenty of funny moments and the ending is light-hearted. This film has many famous British actors, like Hugh Grant and Keira Knightley.

Elf Elf is an American comedy film starring Will Ferrell. It’s about a man raised

as an elf in Santa Claus’s workshop. He leaves his life of toy making in the North Pole and travels to the United States to find himself. He gets into the real world, trying to spread the Christmas spirit to the people of New York. This film is full

of silly jokes but also shows us the importance of having family around us.

The holiday In this romantic comedy, two women who are unhappy with their romantic situations decide to swap houses for Christmas. Amanda, played by Cameron Diaz, goes to England for the holiday, while Iris, Kate Winslet’s character, travels to Los Angeles. They both discover what winter is like on the other side of the world and both meet the man of their dreams in unexpected situations. Even if the ending is quite predictable(可预见的), this film is heart-warming and perfect for a winter afternoon. 1. Why does the author enjoy the Christmas films on TV? A. They show Christmas is coming. B. They bring some active atmosphere.

C. They remind her of great time with the family. D. They offer her a great activity during the holiday.

2. What does the underlined word “light-hearted”(in Para. 2)probably mean? A. Disappointing B. Surprising C. Upset D. Cheerful

3. What can we know about the three films listed in the passage? A. They’re all comedies which make people laugh. B. They’re all about the importance of having family. C. Their leading characters are trying to win their lovers. D. Their leading actors and actresses are from the same country.

B

Whether we admit or not, most of us are afriad of something. Sometimes, we grow out of it. When I was little, I hated the dark. I slept with a small nightlight on; my parents would turn it off when I had fallen asleep. Now, I can’t get to sleep with a light on; I need it to be dark to fall asleep!

Like lots of people, I’m terrified of spiders. Usually, I leave a jar or a cup over the spider and ask my mum to throw it away! When I was living in France this year, that wasn’t a choice. I almost screamed when I saw a spider on my toothpaste and had to remove it myself!

I am also scared of clowns(小丑). Although they are supposed to be funny, I find their painted faces very scary! When I was little, I would go to the circus with my family. I loved all the tricks and the magic, but I couldn’t watch the clowns. Until this year, I had always loved flying. I still enjoy the take-off and landing and going through the clouds. However, when I fly alone I often find myself feeling slightly petrified before the flight leaves. For some reason, I am scared that the plane will crash--- even though statistics(统计数据) show that you are more likely to be in a car crash than a plane crash!

There are lots of courses you can take which will supposedly cure your fears. I don’t know how effective they are, but I think time is the best cure. Even if you never lose your fear of something entirely, over time you may become more relaxed about it.

4. The author shares her own experience in Para. 1 to show _________ A. it’s common for people to feel scared B. people might grow out of fear C .what has changed her a lot

D. why she has something to be scared of

5. What does the underlined word “petrified” (in Para. 4) probably mean? A. Excited B. Puzzled C. Frightened D. Amazed 6. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Fear may be cured over a long period of time.

B. Fear of something can make people nervous all the time. C. People can deal with their fears by attending some courses. D. People should pretend to be relaxed when they are scared. 7. Where can you probably find the passage?

A. On a notice board. B. In a travel journal. C. On a teenage website. D. In a scientific report.

C

It’s school time again! You’re probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad

for the vacation is over. Some kids feel nervous on the first day of school because of all the new things: new teachers, new friends, and maybe even a new school. Luckily, these “new” worries only stick around for a little while. Let’s find out more about going back to school.

Most teachers kick off the school year by introducing themselves and talking about what you’ll be doing that year. Some teachers give students a chance to tell something about themselves to the rest of the class.

When teachers do the talking on the first day, they often go over classroom rules so you’ll know what’s allowed and what’s not. Pay close attention so you’ll know if you need to raise your hand to ask a question and what the rules are about visiting the restroom.

You might already know a lot of people in your class on the first day. But it’s a great day to make new friends, so try to say “hello” to the kids you know and new ones that you don’t. Make the first move and you’ll be glad about what you did and so will your new friends!

Most teachers let you pick your own seat on the first day, but by the second or third morning, they’ll have mapped out a seating plan. It’s a good idea to write down where your seat is in your notebook so you don’t forget.

Here are a few final tips for a fantastic(奇异的) first day: Get enough sleep. Have a healthy breakfast. Try your best. Develop good work habits, like writing down your assignments(作业) and handing in your homework on time. Take your time with schoolwork. If you don’t understand something, ask the teacher.

8. In the second paragraph, the underlined phrase “kick off” most probably means “________”.

A. jump over B. start C. talk about D. finish

9. Which of the following is TURE according to the passage? A. All students feel excited about a new term. B. All teachers let students pick their seats. C. New school worries do not last very long.

D. Being hard-working helps make new friends.

10. If students have any questions, it’s suggested that they should ____________. A. turn to their teachers B. write them down C. ask their parents D. help with each other

11. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage? A. To offer students some advice on starting a new school term. B. To encourage students to work harder in a new school term. C. To teach children the importance of starting school. D. To introduce a way to improve students’ learning ability.

D

If you do not use your arms or your legs for some time, they become weak. When you start using them again, they slowly become strong again. Everybody knows this. Yet there are many people who do not seem to know that one’s memory works in the same way. When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by exercising it regularly. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong. If a friend complains that his arms are weak, we know that it is his own fault. But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame, or that he is just unlucky, and few of us realize that it is really his own fault. Not all of us can become very strong or very clever, but all of us can improve our memory by the same means — practice.

Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have a better memory than those who can? Why is this? Of course, because people who can’t read or write have to remember things: they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, prices, names, songs and stories, so their memory is exercised all the time.

So if you want a good memory, learn from those who cannot read or write: practise remembering.

13. The author thinks that if a person has a poor memory, _________. A. it is his own fault

A. people who can’t read are cleverer than those who can B. people who can’t write are cleverer than those who can

C. a little notebook helps people who cannot read or write get a better memory D. people who practise remembering regularly have a better memory 15. The passage mainly tells us ____________. A. how to get our arms and legs stronger B. how to improve our memory
