Donna was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of hershell.Sure, honey, that sounds great. I said, thinking back to my own best friend, Lillian. Welived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10,too. Like my daughter, I was shy, but Lillian drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people inschool, with shiny black hair and a big smile.In senior high school, Lillian went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to beaway from each other for a few days. Ill be back soon. she told me. But three days later,Lillians sister told me that she had fallen into a river and hadnt come out any more. Soon, myfamily moved to New Jersey. Whenever I thought of her, tears came into my eyes.The next day Donna brought her new friend home. Hi, Mrs. Loggia. the little girl said. Herhair was so shiny and black and she smiled brightly. My name is Laura.My daughters new friend was so much like Lillian. I was still puzzled(迷惑)when Lauras mom came to pick her up later that afternoon. I opened the door to let her in. Judy! she cried. Its me, Lillians sister, from Washington Heights.” Yes, my daughters friend looked familiar(熟悉). Lillian is her aunt.19. The underlined phrase in the first paragraph“to bring her out of her shell”means “_”.A. to help her live happilyB. to help her become smartC. to help her walk out of her houseD. to help her become less shy20. Laura looked familiar to the writer because she _A. was Donnas good friendB. was from Washington HeightsC. was as old as her daughterD. had shiny black hair and a big smile, too21. Why did the writer lose her best friend?A. Because she moved to New Jersey. B. Because her best friend travelled to Florida.C. Because her best friend lost her life on a trip.D.

Donna and Laura have been friends for a long time.D. Judy moved to New Jersey because of Lillians death.CUmbrellas are certainly one of lifes necessary handy helpers. But as anyone ever caught in aheavy rain will tell you, theyre far from perfect. So, many creative designers made efforts tochallenge. Here are four clever designs that can solve the rainy day problems. SenzCommon umbrellas love to invert(翻转)when its windy. The Senz umbrella changes the round shape into the one thats long in the back and short in the front. The design is much strongeragainst even strong winds, and according to their tests, the Senz works well.NubrellaAn American named Alan Kaufman and his company spend 6 years inventing this hand-freeumbrella. The hand-free umbrella is called Nubrella. The umbrella can rest on the users shoulders.So the user neednt hold the umbrella any more. And its convenient to make a phone call or ride abike without an umbrella in the hand.KazbrellaThere is no doubt that this kind of umbrella is the shining star in the umbrella market this year. Common umbrellas drip(滴水)everywhere when they are closed. Kazbrella tries to solve this problem in a special way. Though it looks like common umbrella, the design allows the wetside of the umbrella to be inside once you fold it. As a result, getting in and out of your car is not aproblem.Rain ShieldIn the face of a heavy rainstorm, rain can hit you from all directions. Rain Shield gives the protection from the sideway rain and its bendy(弯曲)design means it wont invert. It can handle strong wind. When not in use, it folds into a small piece.23. According to the first paragraph, we know that the common umbrellas_.A. are useful but not perfect enoughB. can only be used in a heavy rainC. can protect us very well in a heavy rainD. are challenges for creative designers24. The umbrella in the following picture is called_.A. SenzB. NubrellaC. KazbrellaD. Rain Shield25. If you use Rain Shield in a heavy rainstorm,A. its not convenient enough to take B. it can protect you from sideway rainC. it will prevent neither rain nor wind D. its easier to get in and out of the car26. Which sentence is WRONG according to the passage?A. Senz is easy to hold with its special shape even in windy weather.B. Nubrella is a great idea for those who want to play sports on rainy days.C. Kazbrella opens from the inside out and keeps dry when you carry around.D. Rain Shield sells best with the special shape and it folds into a small piece.D There are many expressions that use vegetables and fruits. For example, a cucumber is a long,green vegetable that people eat in salads. You might say a person is as cool as a cucumber if henever seems to worry about anything and stays calm in a stressful situation. If two people are very similar, you might say they are like two peas in a pod. There are severalexpressions about beans. If someone is very energetic, you might say she is full of beans. If yousay something does not amount to a hill of beans, you mean it is of little importance. I might sayyou dont know beans about a subject if you do not know anything at all about it. But if you spillthe beans, you tell something that was supposed to be a secret. Potatoes are a popular food in many areas. But something is considered small potatoes if it isnot important. You probably would not want to hold a hot potato in your empty hands. This alsomeans a problem or an issue that no one wants to deal with. Someone might call you a couchpotato if you sit and watch television all day and get little or no physical exercise. Finally, let us talk about lemons. Lemons have a sour taste if you eat them plain. But lemonsmake a nice drink when you mix their juice with sugar and water. So here is an expression aboutlemons that we like: If life gives you lemons, make lemonade. This means you should always tryto make the best of a bad situation.27. Who are most probably described as two peas in a pod?A. Lovers.B. Partners.C. Deskmates.D. Twins.28. If one knows nothing about the project you are working on, we can say heabout it.A. doesnt know beansB. makes lemonadeC. holds a hot potatoD. is as cool as a cucumber29. A couch potato refers to people who _.A. are of little importance B. get little or no physical exerciseC. are interested in TV programs D. have difficult problems to deal with30. Whats the passage about?A. The way of using vegetables and fruits. B. The importance of vegetables and fruits.C. Expressions about vegetables and fruits. D. The humor of English words and expressions.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）下面文章中有五处（第31-35题）需要添加小标题。请从以下选项（A、B、C、D、E和F）中选出符合各段意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余选项。ATools of CommunicatingBGet Experience from Other PeopleCSelf ImprovementDPreparation to ActionEConnecting Your BrainFImprove UnderstandingWhy Reading is So Important?Everyone knows that reading is important, but have you ever asked yourself why that is so?
