Dear editor,
I live in a beautiful city. Many visitors come to my city every year because there are so many colorful peacocks (孔雀) here.
The peacocks mostly live on the grassland of Dongfeng Square. Visitors usually throw food to them, but they don‟t think about at all wheth er the food is good or not. Some of the peacocks became ill, and some even died, eating the bad food given by visitors.
I‟m sure most of the visitors who throw food to the peacocks really like the bird, but they don‟t realize that they may be doing them harm. Visitors should be told that what they have done is harmful to the birds, and this kind of thing must be stopped.
Perhaps we can build some small shops beside Dongfeng Square to sell peacock food. For us every person, it is our duty to give more love to these beautiful birds to look after them carefully.
Yours
Wang Yang

I started learning English when I was 6 years old. For 8 years I learned English the way everybody else did — by going to English classes. It was useless. I did everything that the teachers told me to do. But I didn‟t get any results. I mean, I was always one of the best students in class. However, reading English texts took me a long time. I made lots of mistakes when writing, my pronunciation was bad, and I could only speak English very slowly. After my eight years of studying hard, these were the results.
In 1993, I went to the best high school in Wroclaw. It was a special program with a lot of English classes. I owe (感激) a lot to the people I met there, both students and teachers. My first two years in high school were very important for my English. My English teacher, Mr. Janusz Laskosz, gave me a lot of good advice, especially on pronunciation and vocabulary. My talented (多才多艺的) friends, Wojtek and Michael Ryszard, who are my partners now, were both fantastic English learners. What‟s more, every time I heard them speak, they
seemed to have a bigger vocabulary. I wanted to be as good as them, so I studied harder. And my English improved. Wojtek and Michal also introduced me to SuperMemo, which has been very important in my life. And, of course, I could discuss the English language with them, which was a great thing.
( )34. The writer studied hard at English in the first eight years, ______________.
A. but he was still not good at it
B. and then he invented an effective way to learn it
C. so his pronunciation was quite good
D. and then he could read English articles very quickly
( )35. The writer made great progress in learning English ________________.
A. after he read many English textbooks B. because he spoke English very slowly
C. even before he went to the high school in Wroclaw
D. because of his friends Wojtek and Michael

A man came back home from work late, tired, to find his six-year-old son waiting for him at the door.
“Daddy, how much money do you make an hour?”
“If you want to know, I make $20 an hour.”
“Oh,” the little boy replied, with his head down. He thought for a moment, looked up and said, “Daddy, could you lend me $10?”
The father was furious, “If you asked for money to buy a toy or some other rubbish, then go straight to your room and think why you are being so selfish!”
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. After about an hour or so, the father calmed down, and started to think, “Maybe he really needs to buy something and he didn‟t ask for money very often.” So he went to the little boy‟s room.
“Sorry! Maybe I was too hard on you just now,” said the man. “Here‟s $10.”
“Oh, thank you, Daddy!” the boy said gladly. Then, the boy took out some coins. When the father found that the boy already had some money, he got angry again.
“Why do you want more money since you already have some?” the father shouted angrily. “Because I didn‟t have enough, but now I do,” the little boy replied, “Daddy, I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.”
( )38. How much does the man make if he works 10 hours?

What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape（逃跑）? Do you know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.
Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save yourself. It is important to know the ways you can use and to show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways (楼梯) and fire escapes, but not lifts.
From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible, learn the best way of leaving through windows with the least chance of serious injury (伤害).
The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person, hanging by the finger-tips (手指尖) will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building.
Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed. Or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may have leaked (泄露) into the room.
On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those which open onto a roof (屋顶). From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement (水泥) might end in injury. Bushes and grass can help to break a fall.
( )42. It is important to ____________________.
A. know the ways to escape a fire B. put out a fire in a burning house
C. jump out of a burning house D. keep the door closed
( )43. It is possible to escape through the windows ___________________.
A. if you are strong enough B. if there are some bushes on the ground
C. if you live on a lower floor D. if you have a long rope
( )44. Keep your head low at the window so that ___________ if the building is on fire.
A. you can get fresh air B. you can call for help
C. you can easily jump off D. you can be seen first
( )45. The best title for the passage is _____________.
A. Escaping as fast as possible B. Saving Yourself from a Burning House
C. Knowledge on Fire D. Waiting for Help

请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。
Zhang Li lies in bed sadly. The 24-year-old young man lost his right leg because of a blood disease (血液病). The doctor said that his 10 years of smoking had caused the disease.
“I first smoked a cigarette when I was in Junior 3. It made me feel like a man and I thought it looked cool. Now I know I was really wrong,” said Zhang.
According to the 2008 China Tobacco Control report (中国烟草控制报告), 130 million young people who are under 18 years old have tried smoking. Fifteen million of them are addicted (上瘾的).
The report came out on May 31, World No-Smoking Day. It also found that nearly 68% of teenage smokers smoked their first cigarette before the age of 13. Those living in big cities started even earlier.
“Some tobacco companies try to make cigarettes cool and attractive. It‟s just to make money,” said Yang Gonghuan, a doctor. In fact, smoking is one of the top killers in China. Each year 1 million people die from smoking-related (与吸烟有关的) diseases. Smoking causes illnesses like lung cancer and heart disease.
Doctors say that the younger a person starts smoking, the worse it will be. If a person starts smoking as a teenager, he or she may live twenty-two years less than non-smokers.
