(36)A
My dad always tells me that if one doesn't respect money,it will never respect you.Hence,it's important that you keep a record of your daily expenses.Make it a habit to write down all that you have spent.And when you find out the total expenses at the end of the month,you will realize what you have spent more money in doing.(37)F
Open a savings account.
Opening a savings account is a better way to save money.You can set a goal; say (for example),the money is for a new notebook or for college,and then save,until you have enough money to buy a notebook or until you go to college.(38)D
Do not carry much cash.
Do you have the habit of not leaving a store without buying anything?The only way to stop that is carrying less money around with you.Go to the store with the minimum amount of money,which will not even help you buy a drink.(39)B
Save the changes.
Save the changes that you get back.If you have gone to a shop to buy something and get back some changes,then do not spend them.(40)CAnd you'll be surprised at the huge amount of money after days.

4.Washington:NASA has announced evidence that Jupiter's largest moon,Ganymede,has a saltwater ocean under its icy surface.The ocean seems to have more water than all the water on Earth's surface,according to new Hubble observation.
New Hubble observations of Ganymede's magnetic field strongly suggest that the moon,which is the largest in our whole solar system,is home to a subsurface ocean.
Scientists estimate the ocean is 95 kilometres thick,which is about 10 times deeper than Earth's oceans.But unlike our salty waters,Ganymede's ocean is buried under 150 kilometres of ice.
While scientists have speculated(推测) since 1970s about the presence of an ocean on Ganymede-the largest moon in our solar system-until now the only observational evidence came from a brief flyby by the Galileo spacecraft,which didn't observe the moon long enough to confirm a liquid ocean.
This discovery marks an important milestone,highlighting what only Hubble can accomplish.In its 25 years in orbit,Hubble has made many scientific discoveries in our own solar system.A deep ocean under the icy surface of Ganymede opens up further exciting possibilities for life beyond Earth.
Scientists_have_already_confirmed_the_existence_of_an_ocean_on_Europe,_another moon orbiting Jupiter,and NASA has announced plans to send an unmanned mission there searching for the life that might come with liquid water.
Hubble is a telescope that orbits Earth,but because of its impressive gravitational analyses it can be used to study the inside of far distant planets.Using these same principles,scientists could theoretically detect oceans on distant planets as well.
25.What can we learn about the Ganymede from the passage?C
A.It is a planet with the largest moon in our whole solar system.
B.It will be used by NASA as a base for the Hubble telescope.
C.Its ocean adds to people's excitement about life beyond Earth.
D.Its liquid ocean was first proved by the Galileo spacecraft.
26.Which of the following best describes the writer's attitude towards Hubble?
A
A.Favorable.B.Doubtful.
C.Negative.D.Cautious.
27.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 6 mean?B
A.An underground ocean has been found in Europe.
B.It is now certain that there is an ocean on Europe.
C.The presence of an underground ocean in Europe is not possible.
D.No evidence has shown the existence of an ocean on Europe.
28.What type of writing does this passage belong to?D
A.A term essay.
B.An exploration review.
C.An experiment report.
D.A news report..

14.It is an agreed fact that all the creatures want happiness and are afraid of pain and grief (悲伤).The question,however,is"what is real happiness?"What really is called happiness?The desire for happiness has no meaning without un derstanding the real nature of happiness.
    Some thinkers say,"Happiness does not lie in objects of enjoyment; happiness or unhappiness lies in imagination."To prove their belief,they give examples like the following one:A man has two-storey house; on the right is a five-storey building and on the left a cottage.When he sees right,he feels unhappy and when he sees left he feels happy.As such happiness does not lie in possession of sensory objects,but in imagination.They advise people to look towards those who are poorer than you and be happy.If you look towards people having more wealth and possessions,you'll always be unhappy.
    It is unreasonable to hold this point of view.It is unkind to regard one happy by imagining that one is better than the poor and the unhappy."If you want to be happy,look towards the poor".This attitude satisfies the sense of pride of possessions,but this can never be called happiness.Unless we really find where happiness lies,we can not really be happy.
    Some ask people to do this and do that and say,"This way your desires would be satisfied.You would get the desired objects and become happy."People holding these views regard happiness as satisfaction of desires.But it is not possible to satisfy one's desires because there are countless desires of countless people and the material things are limited.Then new desires arise as soon as the previous ones are satisfied.Therefore,desires,which are changing all the time,can never be satisfied.
    Happiness,in fact,is a condition that must be prepared for,cultivated (培养),and defended privately by each person.People who learn to control inner experience will be able to determine the quality of their lives and come to being happy.Happiness lies in the distribution of easiness among others.Happiness stands for forgiveness and justice.Happiness is the name of struggle and courage.Happiness may be founded in seeking of true knowledge and rule of wisdom.Happiness may be shared in service and duty.This life is combination of joy and sorrow,and honest efforts should be done to make this life journey full of happiness,love,peace and harmony.
66.According to t he text,if you think happiness lies in imagination,you'll try to achieve happiness byA.
A.looking towards those with fewer possessions
B.looking towards people having more wealth
C.imagining how rich you will be in the future
D.imagining that you have a five-storey building
67.The author doesn't think that happiness lies in the satisfaction of desires becauseB.
A.no desires of a person can be satisfied at all
B.ever-changing desires can never be satisfied
C.there isn't enough money to meet people's needs
D.the desires of a person are limited
68.In the author's opinion,happinessD.
A.can be achieved easily by earning money
B.must belong to those with rich knowledge
C.can be gained by setting small goals
D.can be gained by controlling inner experience
69.According to the last paragraph,who can probably have real happiness?C
A.Those who often struggle with others.
B.Those who have a high quality of life.
C.Those who always forgive others'mistakes.
D.Those whose requirements are always met.
70.What is the purpose of the text?D
A.To show how to achieve happiness.
B.To encourage people to achieve happiness.
C.To explain the features of happiness.
D.To introduce how to understand happiness.

1.Six Ways to Improve Reading Comprehension
    Help your child keep what he reads-a crucial skill,especially as he gets older and needs to gain important information from textbooks.
    Have him read aloud.This forces him to go slower,which gives him more time to hear what he reads.(36)EChoose the right kinds of books.,not have too many new words that he can't understand.(37)D.or else he can't understand  the overall meaning of the story.
(38)C.To gain meaning from text,your child needs to read quickly and smoothly-a skill known as fluency.Rereading familiar,simple books gives your child practice at decoding words quickly so he'll become more fluent.
     Talk to the teacher.If your child is struggling hard with comprehension,he may need more help with his reading-for example,building his vocabulary or practising phonics skills.
     Supplement class reading.If his class is studying a particular theme,look for easy-to-read books or magazines on the topic.Some prior knowledge will make his way through tougher classroom texts.
     Talk about what he's reading.This"verbal processing"helps him remember and think through the themes of the book.(39)BFor example:
●Before:"What interests you in this book?What doesn't?"
●During:"(40)A.Is it turning out the way you thought it would?"
●After:"Can you summarize the book?What did you like about it?"

A.What's going on in the book?
B.Ask questions before,during,and after a reading session.
C.Reread to build fluency.
D.He should recognize at least 90 percent of the words without any help.
E.Plus,he's not only seeing the words,he's hearing them,too.
F.Look up new words in the dictionary.
G.Do you know all the characters in the story?

19.Father's Garden
My father was always a good gardener.One of my earliest memories is standing without shoes in the freshly tilled(翻耕的) soil,my hands blackened from digging in the ground.
As a child,I loved following Dad around in the garden.I remember Dad pushing the tiller(耕作机) ahead in perfectly straight lines.Dad loved growing all sorts of things yellow and green onions,watermelons almost as big as me,rows of yellow corn,and our favorite-red tomatoes.
As I grew into a teenager,I didn't get so excited about gardening with Dad.Instead of magical land of possibility,it had turned into some kind of prison.As Dad grew older,his love for gardening never disappeared.After all the kids were grown and had started families of their own,Dad turned to gardening like never before.Even when he was diagnosed with cancer,he still took care of his garden.
But then,the cancer,bit by bit,invaded his body.I had to do the things he used to do.What really convinced me that Dad was dying was the state of his garden that year.The rows and rows of multicolored vegetables were gone.Too tired to weed them,he simply let them be.He only planted tomatoes.
For the first few years after he died,I couldn't even bear to look at anyone's garden without having strong memories pour over me like cold water from a bucket.Three years ago,I decided to plant my own garden and started out with just a few tomatoes.That morning,after breaking up a fair amount of soil,something caught the corner of my eye and I had to smile.It was my eight-year-old son Nathan,happily playing in the freshly tilled soil.
4.Why did the author like the garden when he was a child?B
A.He wanted to be a garden-crazy like his father.
B.He loved being in the garden with his father.
C.The garden was full of his favorite food.
D.The garden was just freshly tilled.
5.When all the kids started their own families,the author's fatherC.
A.stopped his gardening.
B.turned to other hobbies.
C.devoted more to gardening.
D.focused on planting tomatoes
6.What happened to the garden when the author's father was seriously ill?B
A.There was a great harvest.
B.The garden was almost deserted.
C.No plant grew in the garden at all.
D.The author's son took charge of the garden.
7.Why did the author start his garden with tomatoes?A
A.He wanted to honor his father.
B.His son liked the fields of tomatoes.
C.He only knew how to grow tomatoes.
D.He thought tomatoes were easy to manage.
