are filled with old chairs, beds, clothes and dishes. in madrid, spain, the new year comes in more quietly. people flock to the main square. each holds a bag of grapes. as the clock strikes twelve, the people eat the grapes one for each stroke.in tokyo people eat noodles on new years eve. this food is said to bring long life. early the next morning, some japanese families climb mount fuji. there they watch the first sunrise of the new year.56. this story is about new years eve in _.a. italy and spain b. china and japanc. japan d. italy ,spain and japan57. in rome, italy, the streets are filled with old things on new years eve because _ .a. people throw out all the things they no longer wantb. the city has never been cleanc. people want to change back what they wantd. they want to see the sun come up58. in tokyo, people eat noodles on new years eve _.a. because they like eating noodles very muchb. so that the daytime could be longerc. in order that they could live longer d. though they dont eat thembpopeye the sailor first became a popular cartoon in the 1930s.the sailor in that cartoon ate lots of spinach(菠菜)to make him strong. people watched him, and they began to buy and eat a lot more spinach. popeye helped sell 33 percent more spinach than before! spinach became a necessary part of many peoples diets. even some children who hated the taste began to eat the vegetable.many people thought that the iron in spinach made popeye strong, but this is not true. spinach does not have any more iron than any other green vegetable.people only thought spinach had a lot of iron because the people who studied the food made a mistake. in the 1890s, a group of people studied what was inside vegetables. this group said that spinach had ten times more iron than it did. the group wrote the number wrong, and everyone accepted it.today, we know that the little iron there is in spinach cannot make a difference in how strong a person is. however, spinach does have something else which the body needsfolic acid.it is interesting to point out that folic acid can help make a person strong. maybe it was really the folic acid that made popeye strong all along. 59.a good title for this reading passage is_.a. popeye the sailorb. the truth about spinachc.a mistake with numbersd. folic acid makes you strong60.why did many people eat spinach after they saw popeye the sailor?a. they thought spinach made them strong.b. they thought popeye was funny.c. spinach had a lot of iron. d. people liked folic acid.61.a research group told people that spinach_.a. made popeye strong b. was a green vegetablec. had less iron than other green vegetablesd. had more iron than other green vegetables62.the reading passage says that perhaps popeye got his strength from_.a. ironb. folic acidc. spinachd. exercise63.folic acid is _.a. something in foodb. a vegetablec. dangerousd. a certain kind of spinachcthe other day i heard a few local musicians talking, i hate all the pianos in this town and i hate that rubbish they play on the radio. they cannot even understand rhythm (韵律).nobody wants to pay musicians anything. im sick of all the people who want you to play without paying you.” one younger musician said, there are a couple of clubs who want me to play for a few nights a month, and im trying to find other places to play. im also planning to join in several summer festivals this year. i really liked what the younger musician said so i made friends with him. attitudes are important. whether theyre positive or negative (消极的), theyre all rubbing off on you. if youre around people who are always complaining(抱怨) or blaming (责备) others, it is possible that you will start doing the same as well. if you spend lots of time with people who dont support your dreams, it is time to take a look at the people you call friends. there is an easy exercise you can try. make a list of the people who you often stay with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. set a new standard for yourself and dont become friends with people who fall below that standard. the choice is always yours to make. of course, this exercise is entirely different from making friends only for the good of oneself. we really should try to help and spend time with those who are working towards a goal or dream.64. the musicians conversation at the beginning is to show that _.a. musicians living conditions are not goodb. people in that town have poor taste in musicc. different people have different attitudesd. young people are more likely to succeed65. the underlined part theyre rubbing off on you in paragraph 2 means _.a. theyll push you ahead b. theyll have an influence on you c. theyll keep you from moving on d. theyll help you realize your dreams66. why did the author want to make friends with the younger musician? a. he is more active than the others. b. he can earn more than the others.c. he has more things to do than the others.d. his attitude is more positive than the others.67. we can get the following information from the passage except _.a. the younger musician is a positive person and would be a good friendb. one will start complaining if one spends too much time with negative peoplec. the exercise can help you keep close to really helpful friendsd. one should avoid making friends with people who have lots of difficultiesdsports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. however，whether you are on the mountains，in the waves，or on the grassland，you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.some sports are resourcehungry（耗费资源的）. golf，as you may know，eats up not only large areas of countryside，but also tons of water. besides，all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场) in good condition. this causes major environmental effects. for example，in the dry regions of portugal and spain，golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.there are many environmently friendly sports. power walking is one of them that you could take up today. you dont need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes；and you dont have to worry about resources and your purse. simple and free，power walking can also keep you fit. if you walk regularly，it will be good for your heart and bones. experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious，sleep well and have better weight control.whatever sport you take up，you can make it greener by using environmentfriendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. but the final goal should be “green gyms”they are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. members of green gyms play sports outdoors，in the countryside or other open spaces. there is no special requirement for you to start your membership. and best of all，its free.68which of the following is the author most probably in favor of?acycling around a lake. bmotor racing in the desert.cplaying basketball in a gym. dswimming in a sports center.69what do we know about golf from the passage?ait is popular in portugal and spain.bit causes water shortages around the world.cit pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes.dit needs water and electricity to keep its courses green.70the author uses power walking as an example mainly because _.ait is an outdoor sport bit improves our healthcit uses fewer resources dit is recommended by experts71the author writes the passage to _.ashow us the function of major sportsbencourage us to go in for green sportscdiscuss the major influence of popular sportsdintroduce different types of environmently friendly sportseit is a good time for us to have a successful ice fishing season. here are some things we should think about.the first thing to remember is that you neednt be the first person on the ice. every year someone tries to get out there before the ice is safe. as soon as its safe，you should be out there.early ice is usually thin，and often there is no snow on top of it. that means the fish can see you very easily. therefore，you need to be quiet. the more you move around，the more youre going to spook the fish. later in the year when the ice is thick and theres snow cover，you can move around more.many of the most successful anglers(钓鱼者)like to fish from a shelter(遮盖物) in the ice fishing season. the fish see the shelter as just a dark object，and the movements of the angler inside it cant be seen. also，line that is hard to see underwater will be better for ice fishing .therefore，fire line micro ice，a new product on the market，is strongly recommended.early in the ice fishing season，the water is often quite clear and the fish will usually be in shallow water. this can be a great time to watch the fish. even if you might not catch many fish on some days，you can learn many things that will help you catch more fish next time out.always remember our first reminder. if you remember that，youll enjoy lots of ice fishing early in the ice fishing season.72the purpose of the passage is to _.awarn us not to go ice fishing bgive us advice on ice fishingctell us the pleasure of ice fishing dpersuade us to buy a new product73what does the underlined word “spook” in the third paragraph probably mean?acatch. bwatch. cfrighten. dattract.74why do many good anglers fish from a shelter early in the ice fishing season?athey can move around it freely.bthey can be safe inside the shelter.cit can protect them from cold weather.dit can hide their movements from the fish.75fire line micro ice is strongly recommended because_.ait can serve as a good shelterbit is strong enough to catch fishcit can hardly be seen by fishdit is a new product on the market第二卷第四部分: 写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下面的短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填1个单词。life is never smooth. its full of u
