Besides spending time with family, having a glass of wine with friends or reading a book, how about a hobby? Personally, I’m a collector. I like blue and white pieces the best---blue and white anything﹗Plates，jars，vases, cups, bowls---I love them all. Collecting items is like something you can’t get enough of. You get one, and you want to have more. I find collecting to be a fun and inspirational hobby. In many ways, it’s like a puzzle I’m never tired of solving. I look high and low for new pieces to add to my collection. I can often be found visiting Marshell’s, looking over their inexpensive offerings. In fact, I found one of my favorite pieces there. I’ve mixed inexpensive pieces from Marshell’s with more expensive finds. A lot of times, it’s the piece I’m not looking for that falls into my lap; I find a way to make it part of my blue and white family. What I love about my collection is that when I get inspired, I can move them around the house, mix and match and make things look fresh and new. Ever since I was a little girl, blue has been my favorite color. I think I got it from my aunt in Mexico. Some of my earliest memories are visiting her in Mexico and sitting on a chair in her kitchen, which had blue and white tiles(瓷砖)from the floor to the ceiling. I would spend countless hours admiring all the beautiful blue and white plates and shiny blue tiles around her kitchen. Once I had a home, I began to build my own blue and white collection. 51. We can infer that in the writer’s opinion,_____________. A. having a hobby can help us relax B. reading a book alone is really boring C. keeping a hobby is not easy for most of people D. having a glass of wine with friends is not a good idea 52. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Collecting things requires a lot of money. B. People always want more than they need. C. People may not know what they want to collect. D. Once you start collecting things, it’s hard to stop. 53. If something falls into your lap, it means you_________. A. have been looking for it B. don’t know what it is C. get it unexpectedly D. like it very much 54. What’s the last paragraph mainly about? A. When the writer started collecting things. B. When the writer started liking blue things. C. What kind of thing the writer collected first. D. Why the writer liked her aunt’s things so much. B Thank you for your card. I’m glad you’re having a good time, but I’m not surprised. Washington D.C. is wonderful at this time of year. I would like you to come to my place and meet my people at the end of your journey. You can’t leave America without visiting New York. My brother’s hobby, as you know, is taking pictures. He has a big album(相册)of pictures of the United States and of New York. I’m sending some of them to you. When you look at them you’ll understand why New York is a city of islands. In fact it lies on three big islands: Manhattan, Staten Island and Long Island. There are many small islands in the city. The most expensive part of New York is Manhattan. This island is famous for its skyscrapers(摩天大楼).Broadway is a famous street in New York. It is known for its theatres and you can see wonderfu l shows there. There are many museums and art galleries(画廊)in New York. Pupils often visit museums and have their art classes there. School children often visit the Bronx Zoo. It is the largest of the New York City zoos. It opened in 1899 and since then has always been a favorite place for animal lovers and children. In 1789, New York became the first capital of the United States of America but it remained the capital for only one year. Now, as I’m sure you know, Washington, D.C. is the capital of the country. 55. The underlined word “them” in Para.2refers to__________. A. cards B. albums C. pictures D. letters 56. From the passage we know that___________________. A. Manhattan is known for its skyscrapers B. New York is famous for its wonderful shows C. the Bronx Zoo has the longest history among the zoos in America. D. New York contains three islands in total 57. We can infer that the text is probably__________________. A. an advertisement B. a letter C. a travel journal D. a geography report 58. The writer writes this passage to ________________. A. persuade his friend to visit New York B. introduce Washington D.C. in America C. describe three islands in New York D. show his brother’s album C Some people may say a hero is someo ne older than you, someone you personally know, someone who has done something everyone knows about, etc. I don’t think a hero necessarily has to be an older person or a close friend or a family member. My hero is younger than me, but we are related. His name is Marcus. He is my cousin. He isn’t necessarily a wise person or someone who does something great every day, but he has taught me to appreciate some of the simple things in life. I am now in 11th grade. When I was in 8th grade, Marcus had a brain tumor (脑瘤) which had to be removed. Thankfully the tumor was benign (良性的). When the doctors removed it Marcus lost his sight. He felt down only once. Ever since then, he has been an extremely happy second-grader. He is very typical of a nine-year-old. He likes to tell jokes, play new games, and he likes to play tricks on people, just like children at his age. I love spending time with him. We go to movies whenever there is a good one and look after him every chance I get. I say that Marcus helps to appreciate the simple thing in life. He doesn’t have his sight and that causes me to realize how lucky I am to be able to see, to walk, and to talk. I can do everything I need to. If everyone could see how happy and satisfied Marcus is and how much he makes everyone around him happy, then they might just be able to better appreciate the simple things in life. 59. It can be inferred that the author has_______________. A. the same idea about heroes as others B. a different idea about heroes from others C. the idea that a hero must be old er D. the idea that a hero must be a close friend 60.

What makes the author think himself lucky? A. Marcus’ simple life. B. Marcus’ serious illness. C. Marcus’ blindness. D. Marcus’ recovery. D Bridge of Hope School is a private school. It was set up in Kalangala about two years ago. Unlike government schools, which have very large classes of 90 children , many of whom do not want to learn, Bridge has small classes, so pupils get a great deal of attention. Small classes are good for teaching, but the school is always having difficulty with money since private schools are dependent on parents paying on time. The school has five primary classes and three nursery classes(幼儿班). As the children progress through the school they will add another class next year. The total number of children in the primary is about 50. The parents of Bridge children are often higher earners than those that attend government schools. They want their children to have the best education available. The school is not yet finished. The classrooms have no windows or doors. But it is very formal and insists on children wearing uniforms(制服).Discipline is strict and the children are well-behaved. Only English may be spoken and not the local language. Although English is the national language and the language of education, government schools teach in their own language for the first three years. School starts at 7 am and the children have to be on time. Classes are formal, but children have to copy lots of things from the blackboard, because there are few textbooks, sometimes only one for the teacher to use. Class work is heavy and the children have tests every week. They also study during the holiday. 63. Parents send their children to Bridge of Hope School because they_________________.
