However, when she first walked past the students in the school, her excitement turned to fear, and then to loneliness over the next few days. “Why didnt anyone say hi to me or invite me to his or her lunch table? Is it because of my clothes or my hair?” she wondered. Almost every day during the first week, Anna stayed alone, thinking that there must have been something wrong with her or that nobody saw her at all!What caused Annas problem? The reason was that nobody knew her. Most people dont like talking with strangers. So its your job to volunteer to make contact with people who you want to know. The easiest way to catch their attention is to notice them first. Make eye contact with them and smile at them. When you smile at them, you are doing your best to show your kindness to them, and they are sure to understand that you are saying, “Hey, hows everything going?” In this way, you are taking the first step towards the road to friendship.When Anna realized this, she started talking to her classmates. Guess what happened? It really worked. She had made two friends by the end of the month.In fact, saying “hi” or making friends with strangers is not hard. And the joy it brings you is really great. So try to open your heart to strangers!（1）What was Annas problem?A . She was afraid of entering a new school.B . She had no friends in her new school.C .

There was no modern medicine, either.Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution. Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and pollutes our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution to all living things in the world.Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a quilt (被状物） over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog.Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away, and they mustnt let dirty smoke go into the air.We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and do not throw them on the ground. We can go to work by bus with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution.（1）Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today because .A . there were not modern machinesB . there was no modern medicineC . both A and BD . there were not many people（2）is the biggest pollution in todays life.A .

In Japan, people use landmarks(地标) instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is just across the bus stop.In the Midwest of America, usually there are not many landmarks. So people will tell you directions(方向) and distance. In Kansas(堪萨斯州), for example, people will say, Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure(测量) distance by telling time. How far is the post office? you ask. Oh, they answer, its about five minutes walk from here. You say, Yes, but how many miles away is it？ They dont know. People in Greece(希腊) sometimes do not even try to give directions because few visitors understand the Greek language. Instead of giving you the direction, a Greek will often say, Follow me. Then hell lead you through the streets of the city to the post office. 根据短文内容回答问题。（1）Do most streets have names in Japan？(不超过5个词) （2）Why do people in Los Angeles measure distance by telling time？(不超过10个词) （3）How many countries does the passage tell us？(不超过5个词) 四、 根据句意和音标提示以适当形式填写正确的单词。 (共7题；共18分)15. （1分）I am very _(累的) to look after two pre-school children at home.16. （1分）China is an important_(亚洲的) country. 17. （1分）There is a set of _ /ki:z/ on the desk.18. （4分）将下列内容英汉互译 （1）sweep away_（2）cook the meal_（3）have a look at _（4）at work_19. （5分） 将下列内容英汉互译 （1）see friends_（2）wait for_（3）回家_（4）给家里打电话。_（5）躺在阳光下 _20. （1分）Do you know that Erhu is one of the most traditional_(乐器) in China? 21. （5分）将下列内容英汉互译 （1）at the moment_（2）a kind of_（3）clean the house_（4）learn a dragon dance_（5）sweep the floor_五、 短文填空 (共1题；共8分)22. （8分）填写单词，补全短文。It is very hard to make friends if you stay at home alone all the time._a good friend can make your life happy.
