12.What the Queen keeps inside it has long remained a mystery.Now a new book claims to cast light on the contents of the royal matriarch's main possession.
What's in The Queen's Handbag:And Other Royal Secrets reveals that though the 81-year-old British monarch(君主)doesn't carry cash,keys or passport-since she doesn't own one-her bag is far from empty.Inside are a collection of little presents from her children,a make-up case,some family photos,and a camera sometimes.There's also an s-shaped metal hook that she places on the dinner table's edge to hang her bag from so that it doesn't touch the floor.
Should you ever meet the Queen,it's not what's in her bag but what she does with it that should concern you.She uses her bags,of which she has about 200 made by London-based firm Launier,to send signals to her staff.
Before dining with Queen,a point is made to inform guests that dinner will end in about five minutes after she places her bag on the table top.
On walkabouts,she holds the bag to one side to show she intends to move on,at which point a lady-in-waiting joins the conversation,allowing her to slip away without causing offence.
When at a banquet,if the Queen's bag is placed on the floor then it's a sign that she's not finding the conversation interesting,and wants nothing more than to escape.However,if the royal bag is dangling(悬挂) happily from the crook of her left arm,she is happy and relaxed.
32.What does the article tell us about the Queen's handbag?D
A.She seldom has it with her.
B.She always carries the same handbag.
C.It used to be thought empty.
D.Its contents are not the same as ours.
33.When is it necessary for the Queen to convey her intention with her bag?A
A.When she is with guests.
B.When she eats outside.
C.When she has her staff around.
D.when she is tired of speaking.
34.The Queen gives no signal when sheA
A.hangs her bag on the metal hook 
B.hangs her bag from her left arm
C.places her bag on the floor     
D.puts her bag on the table top
35.By holding her bag to one side,the Queen shows she wants toC
A.talk to her lady-in-waiting         
B.start a conversation
C.stop to continue her walk          
D.go on with the talk.

5.April 15th marks the 102nd anniversary(周年) of the sinking of the Titanic(泰坦尼克号).The 11-storey ship was not just very large,but also unusually luxurious (豪华).It is therefore not surprising that the sinking of the Titanic continues to attract the interest of people of all ages,even today.
Over the years,there have been many books about this tragedy(悲剧).However,very few have been written from the perspective(视角) of the young passengers.This is why I Survived the Sinking of the Titanic,1912by Lauren Tarshis is fun and different.The author uses facts from the real tragedy and makes up a heart-stopping adventure story starring a smart and brave boy George Calder.After spending an exiting vacation in England with their Aunt Daisy,ten-year-old Gorge and his little sister Phoebe,were heading home to America,aboard the greatest ship on earth,the Titanic!
Then on the night of April 14th,the first sign of disaster(灾难) appeared---the luxury ship hit a huge iceberg.But given that everybody in the world knew that the Titanic was unsinkable,there was very little cause for panic(惊慌).They were all confident that the ship's engineers would be able to repair the"slight"damage that had been caused by the iceberg.
This,of course,turned out to be untrue.Within a few hours the Titanic was not only sinking,but faster than most people had time to react.Added to this was the fact that there were not enough lifeboats to take all the passengers to shore.If that was not enough,when the emergency(紧急) call to get on the deck(甲板) came,Gorge realized that his sister Phoebe was missing.
Will George be able to find his sister and help her get to shore?To find out,be sure to read I Survived the Sinking of the Titanic,1912.

25.Who is the main character of I Survived the Sinking of the Titanic,1912?C
A.Lauren Tarshis.
B.Daisy.
C.George Calder.
D.Phoebe.
26.What can be learnt about the book?B
A.It tells an adventure story.
B.It attracts people of all ages.
C.It was finished in 1912in America.
D.It was written by a young passenger.
27.What happened the moment the ship hit a huge iceberg?D
A.The ship wasn't seriously damaged.
B.George realized Phoebe was missing.
C.The ship sank immediately.
D.The passengers weren't worried at all.
28.What made it more difficult for all the passengers to survive?B
A.The unskilled engineers.
B.The shortage of lifeboats.
C.No emergency call.
D.The disorder caused by panic.

7.On any collecting trip,obtaining the animals is,as a rule,the simplest part of the job.As soon as the local people discover that you are willing to buy live wild creatures,the stuff comes (32)pouring (pour) in; ninety percent is,of course,the more common types,but they do bring (33)anoccasional rarity.If you want the really rare stuff,you generally have to go out and find it yourself.
The chief difficulty you have when you have got a newly (34)caught (catch) animal is not so much the shock it might be suffering,but the fact (35)thatbeing caught forces it to exist close to a creature it regards as an enemy of the (36)worst (bad) possible sort:yourself.On many occasions an animal may take beautifully to being in a cage but (37)getting (get) used to the idea of living with people is another matter.This is the difficulty you (38)canonly deal with by patience and kindness.For month after month an animal may try to bite you every time you approach its cage,(39)untilyou despair of ever making a favorable impression on it.Then,one day,sometimes without any preliminary warning,it will trot forward and take food from your hand,or allow you to tickle it behind the ears.(40)At such moments you feel that all the waiting in the world was worthwhile.

1.How to Become Cleverer
Once a boy came to ask a fisherman how to become cleverer,because his mother always called him"foolish boy".
"That's easy,"answered the fisherman."I know one way to make you become cleverer."
"Really?"
"Of course.It is said a fish head is good for brain.If you eat one,you'll become cleverer indeed.Pay only three pounds for one fish head."The boy paid him three pounds and the fisherman cut off a fish head and handed it to him.
A raw fish head is not good-not even for a hungry boy to eat but the boy ate it up in two gulps.
"Do you feel anything?"asked the fisherman.
"Not in my head,"said the boy.
The boy lay on the ground and thought."One whole fish costs only two pounds.I had paid him three pounds for the fish head.Why couldn't I have the whole fish for soup,a head for brain and one pound left over?"He jumped up and shouted at the fisherman."You thief!You are fooling me!"The fisherman laughed,saying,"The fish head works now,you see."

9.Happy birthday!Do birthday really make people happy?Of course they do.Birthdays celebrate the day when we were born.Besides,that extra candle on the cake suggests another year of growth and maturity(成熟)-or so we hope.We all like to imagine that we are getting wiser and not just older.Most of us enjoy seeing the wonder of growth in others,as well.For instance,seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud.For Americans,like people in most cultures,growing up is a wonderful process.But growing old?That is a different story.
Growing old is not exactly for people in youth-oriented (以年轻人为中心)American culture.Most Americans like to look young,act young and feel young.As the old saying goes,"You're young as you feel."Older people joke about how many years young they are,rather than how many years old.People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom.But Americans seem to favor those who are young,or at least"young at heart".
Many older Americans find the"golden years"to be anything but golden.Economically,"senior citizens"often try just to get by.Retirement at the age of 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income.Social security benefits usually cannot make up the difference.Older people may suffer from poor nutrition (营养),medical care,and housing.Some even have the experience of age discrimination(歧视).American sociologist(社会学家) Pat Moore once dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets.She was often treated rudely--even cheated and robbed.However,dressed as a young person,she received much more respect.
Unfortunately,the elderly population in America is increasing fast.Why?People are living longer.Fewer babies are being born.And middle-aged"baby boom ers"(婴儿潮) are rapidly entering the group of the elderly.America may soon be a place where wrinkles(皱纹)are"in".Marketing experts are already noticing this growing group of consumers.
37.Growing up is a wonderful thing becauseB.
A.people can celebrate their birthdays.
B.people can become more and mature and wiser.
C.people can receive many presents.
D.people will feel younger at heart.
38.We can infer from the second paragraph thatD.
A.young people lack experience and wisdom.
B.American older people often joke about their old age.
C.American culture is very young.
D.different countries have different opinions on the old age.
39.The underlined sentence (i n Paragraph 3)means"B."
A.the golden years can make the old earn lots of money and receive good medical care
B.the old people in America are probably leading a hard life without good nutrition,medical care or housing.
C.the old in America have to retire at the age of 65.
D.American social security benefits are not good.
40.From the last paragraph we know that the underlined word"in"can be replaced byD.
A.serious    B.bad     C.disappearing slowly      D.growing fast.
