But when Amy, an exchange student in Beijing from the US, first saw this, she found it strange, even impossible to understand. She wrote on her blog, Unlike Chinese women, American women like to put on their tank tops and sunglasses during summer. If you walk around an American college campus2, you will probably see girls out on the grassy fields reading, but they really hope to get a head start on their summer tan3.This may be caused by the different standards of beauty between the US and China. Many Americans dont want white skin. They would rather be tanned3. Amy also wrote, Having darker skin is so popular that many women and men will pay for fake4 tans so that they can keep their sun-kissed appearance during the winter months, too.Why do they like tanned skin? Michelle Louis reported in her research, The process of tanning can help make peoples skin smooth and hide marks. She further explained, Tans make peoples skin appear healthier and make them appear thinner than when they have pale skin.Perhaps there is no real ideal standard of beauty. In different cultures and at different times of history, the standards change. On Amys blog, she also gave two examples: Some women carried parasols around trying to keep their white skin in the US 150 years ago; During the Tang Dynasty in China, heavy women were thought attractive. But now, Chinese women prefer to be slim.In a word, different standards of beauty should be respected. People may grow up with only one idea of what beauty is, but it doesnt mean that its necessarily the correct or the best idea.New words:parasol n. umbrella used to protect people from the sun 阳伞campus n. grounds of school, college or university校园tan n. the brown colour of sun-kissed skin 晒成的棕褐become brown by the sun 晒成棕褐色，晒黑fake adj. not real 假的（1）What did Michelle Louis report in her research? A . Many Chinese prefer white skin to tanned skin.B . Darker skin is popular among American women and men.C . Tans make peoples skin appear healthier and make them look thinner.D . Some women would like to keep their skin white in the US 150 years ago.（2）Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A . People in the US like to have tanned skin only in hot summer.B . American college girls read on the grass because they want to be tanned.C . Many Chinese women carry parasols to protect themselves from the sun.D . Amy thought trying to keep white skin with parasols seemed strange at first.（3）The writer really wants to tell us . A . we should respect different standards of beautyB . the standards of beauty change at different timesC . different countries have different standards of beautyD . its common for people to have only one idea of beauty13. （10分）阅读理解 Nowadays lots of kids are at home alone after school. Are you one of them? Kids who regularly take care of themselves are called latchkey kids.This nickname got its start in the 1940s. Many men fought in the Second World War and women had to take jobs in factories to keep the country going. With both parents away, lots of kids went back to empty houses after school. Latchkey kids wore house keys around their necks and they used the keys to open doors.Today, its common for both parents to work. As a result, a new generation of kids are spending some time alone after school. It becomes necessary for both parents and kids to make some rules. There are a lot of questions to talk about:Should you call your mum, or dad as soon as you get home?Should you do your homework first?Can you watch TV or play computer games? If so, how long?What can you eat if you want a snack?Can friends come over? If so, how many?As latchkey kids, knowing how to stay safe is just as important as following the family rules. Talk about the following questions with your parents:What should you do when the phone rings?What should you do if someone knocks at the door?What should you do if someone breaks into the house?What should you do if you cut yourself while cooking?You may feel when you are at home alone.

There are a number of reasons for the change in policy. The change is meant to balance population development, stop a falling birth rate and strengthen the countrys labor(劳动力) force.China, with the largest population in the world, started the one-child policy in 1980. But the government allowed only a small number of couples to have two children. For example, some families in the countryside could have two children, if the first-born child is a girl.In 2013, the Chinese government gave other couples a chance to have two children if one of them was an only child.Jiang Quanbao, a teacher and population expert, explained how Chinese families react（反应） to the newest policy. Too many young people in the cities are no longer interested in having a second child, he said. People in the countryside are more interested. But some of them are already allowed to have two children.At the end of 2014, China had 1. 37 billion people. A total of 800 million of them have jobs. But the labor market population will drop in 35 years. That is to say, the country will be in great need of labor by the year 2050. With the two-child policy, an increase in births can solve this problem.Boys and girls, what do you think of the two-child policy? Do you want to have a new-born brother or a sister?（1）Why does the government plan to end the one-child policy?A . Because we need a larger population.B . Because millions of people have jobs.C . Because most families want to have a second child.D . Because we need to strengthen the countrys labor force.（2）How do most young people in the cities react to the two-child policy?A . They support the policy.B . They dont think it is good.C . Theyre very interested.D . Theyre not interested any more.（3）When will our country be in great need of labor if the one-child policy continues?A . In 2015.B . In 2035.C . In 2050.D . In 2070.（4）The Two-Children Policy mainly _.A . helps solve the problems of aging population and labor shortages.B . doesnt allow one couple to have two children.C . has a bad influence on ones mental health.D . encourages one couple to have more than two children.15. （8分） It is reported by Chinese Xinhua News that students waste more food than the national average. So the campaign on school food waste is getting popular across the country. The move is part of a national campaign started by students at different schools.At East China University of Science, students who finish their food in the school dining hall get a special card when they return their plates after meals. Students can collect cards and exchange them for small gifts, such as books, schoolbags, magazines and umbrellas. “Its been such a surprise,” said Liang Zhaoyun, 19, a student in Shanghai. “It has given us one more motivation to eat up our food.”“The purpose of the campaign is not only to encourage students to finish their food. We hope it can also teach students to choose a more environment-friendly and healthy lifestyle,” said Tao Siliang from University of Traditional Chinese Medicine.Other schools also pay attention to the quantity of food. At Nanjing No.9 Middle School, rice is divided into three different-sized bowls that students can choose from according to their own need. “Its great because I can try different dishes at half price and dont waste so much food,” said Fan Peng, 15, a student from this middle school.What if you really cant finish all your food? At Changchun Normal College, they provide a take-away service. “If you cant finish all your food, you can get a box to take the left food home. Even if you feed the cat, its not wasted,” said Zhou Zeyong, a student who learns Chinese education.“Im happy that weve cut down waste since joining the school eat-up meeting. But some food is poorly cooked, meaning that students are not willing to finish it all. Some schools have taken note of this. So if we hope students try to waste less food, we should also improve the service and keep an eye on the meal quality on weekdays at school. If not, you cant complain students for throwing away much food,” said Wang Guangji, the head-teacher of Beijing No. 29 Middle School.（1）Why did we start the campaign on food waste at schools? Because _.A . food waste at school is very serious.B . students should not eat more foodC . it is students duty to eat less foodD . its easy for schools to start a campaign（2）Who can get some gifts at East China University of Science?A . Students who buy some special cards.B . Students who eat up all the foodC . Students who do some dishesD . Students who spend money on gifts.（3）Whats Tao Siliangs idea in the passage?A . Getting small gifts is surprising.B . Different-sized bowls make students happyC . Students should take a healthy lifestyleD . Its a good idea to feed a cat with left food.（4）Which of the followings is true according to the passage?A . The campaign is only to encourage students to eat up foodB . We try to think up many good ways to help clear platesC . We will make notes if students waste much food again.D . We shouldnt complain students for throwing away food四、 翻译。 (共1题；共5分)16. （5分）依我看，数学和语文一样重要。 (in ones opinion) 五、 短文填空。 (共1题；共8分)17. （8分）根据短文内容，从方框中选择恰当的词语填空mess，depend on，ill，while，lend，hate，fair, take care of(Here is a moms letter to her son.)Dear son,When I grow old one day, please_me and try to understand me.

While some persons want to continue local traditions, animal lovers want to stop festivals like Yulins because they believe dogs, as mans best friends, should not be killed for food.Perhaps they should learn from the example set by South Korea, a country that has a much longer eating tradition of eating dog meat. Back in 1988, when Seoul would host the Olympic Games, animal lovers from some countries asked South Korea to stop eating dog meat. To keep a balance between South Koreas love for dog meat and some foreign countries and animal lovers demand(要求), the South Korea government made restaurants sell dog meat in far away areas.In China, there are no rules on saving dogs, so giving up the dog meat-eating festival will not be a good way to solve the problem. It requires time to encourage people in Yulin to change their eating habit. But animal lovers should respect other peoples choice of food in this great country of more than 50 ethnic(民族的) groups.But it is also important for people who eat dog meat to understand animal lovers demand. The local government in Yulin could use the South Korea example to at least control the number of dogs killed before summer comes and cut down the bad social influence of the festival.（1）The dog meat-eating festival is held in Yulin traditionally to _. A . enjoy the delicious dog meatB . celebrate summers comingC . stop the number of dogs increasingD . make the city famous for dog meat（2）In some animal lovers opinion, dogs _. A . should be k
