My grandparents were married for over half a century, and played their own special game from the time they had met each other. The goal of their game was to write the word "shmily" in a     31    place for the other to find. They took turns leaving "shmily" around the house, and as soon as one of them     32    it, it was their turn to hide it once more.
There was no     33    to the places where "shmily" would appear. Sometimes, "Shmily" was written in the     34    left on the mirror after a hot shower, where it would reappear bath after bath.     35   , my grandmother even unrolled an entire roll of toilet paper to     36    "shmily" on the very last sheet.
It took me a long time before I was able to fully     37    my grandparents' game. It was     38    their funny little game; it was a way of life. Grandma and Grandpa held hands every chance they could. They    39    kisses as they ran into each other in their tiny kitchen. Before every meal they bowed their heads and gave their     40   : a wonderful family, good fortune, and     41  .
But there was a    42   cloud in my grandparents' life: my grandmother had breast cancer, which had first appeared ten years earlier. As always, Grandpa was with her every
    43    of the way. He comforted her in their yellow room, painted that way     44____    she could always be surrounded by sunshine, even when she was too     45    to go outside.   Then one day, what we all     46    finally happened. Grandma was gone.
"Shmily." It was written in yellow on the pink ribbons of my grandmother's funeral bouquet. As the crowd     47    and the last mourners (哀悼者) turned to leave, my aunts, uncles, cousins and other family members     48    and gathered around Grandma     49   . Grandpa stepped up to my grand-mother's casket and,     50    with sorrow, he began to sing to her. Through his tears and grief, the song came, a deep and throaty lullaby (摇篮曲).
SHMILY: See how much I love you.

There are many kinds of friends. Some are always    36  you, but don't understand you. Some say only a few words to you, but understand you. Many people will step in your life, but only   37 friends leave footprints.

　　It was the golden season. I could see the yellow leaves   39 on the cool 40 . In such a season, I liked walking alone in the leaves, 41  to the sound of them.
　　Autumn is a 42  season and life is uninteresting. The free days always get me   43 . But one day, the sound of a violin   44  into my ears like a stream (小溪) flowing in the mountains. I was so surprised that I jumped to see what it was. A young girl, standing in the wind, was 45  in playing her violin.
　　I had 46 seen her before. The music was so nice that I listened quietly. Lost in the music, I didn't know that I had been   47 there for so long but my existence (存在) did not seem to disturb her.
　　Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the violin in the corner of the building 48 I went downstairs to watch her performance. I was the only listener. The autumn seemed no longer lonely and life became   49 . 50 we didn't know each other, I thought we were already good friends. I believe she also loved me.
Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening carefully, the sound suddenly
   51 . To my astonishment (惊讶), the girl came over to me.
　　“You must like violin.” she said.
　　“Yes. And you play very well. Why did you stop?” I asked.
　　Suddenly, a   52 expression appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual.
　　“I came here to see my grandmother, but now I must leave. I once played very badly. It was your listening every day that   53 me.” she said.
　　“In fact, it was your playing   54 gave me a meaningful autumn,” I answered, “Let's be friends.”
　　The girl smiled, and so did I.
I never heard her play again in my life. I no longer went downstairs to listen like before. Only thick leaves were left behind. But I will always remember the fine figure (身影) of the girl. She is like a   55 —so short, so bright, like a shooting star giving off so much light that it makes the autumn beautiful.

Read the following passage and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.

A. Promise behaviors
B. Attitude beats experience
C. Job-winning qualities
D. Employer and employee relation
E. Stable career choices
F. Importance of teamwork skills

Despite the economy, experts advise students to major in what interests them.
小题1:

Aware of the worst job market in more than 25 years, many students enrolling in colleges and universities this fall are considering majors that they believe will land them stable career.
Students with degrees in nursing, health care, accounting, computer, general science and engineering report the most success in finding jobs. Those with degrees in finance, journalism, graphic design, and international relations have had tougher times, liberal arts graduates also struggle.
小题2:

Still career experts say students should major in whatever area most interests them, even if it’s a less specialized liberal arts field, such as Chinese and or sociology. In a national survey, communication, followed closely by a strong work ethic and team work skills, was rated at the most important qualities sought by employers. “Liberal arts teaches us how to learn. When we go out into the world of work, we are going to have to continue to learn,” said Dan Naegeli, director of the university of North Texas career center.
小题3:

Texas Health Resources uses a wide range of workers at its 14 hospitals and other sites. The 18,000 employees company hires about 2000 people a year. It looks for candidates with “promise (有前途的) behaviors,” human resource director Justin Clem said.
“The resume is great… Education is wonderful,” Clem said. “But when we interview, we really want to look at situations they were put into the past, what actions they took, and what were the results. Do these results really support treating other people with courtesy dignity and respect? And communicating clearly and earning people’s trust? And thinking before they act?”
小题4:

The company also looks for people who have record of providing service, said Janaelle Nowne, vice president of human resource. If a student mowed lawns or worked at a fast-food restaurant, she said, “ the things that we would want to hear is how you attended to providing service to people that you were working with and how you were attending to the quality of the products that you have. ”
“Experience is always helpful, but it is not always the guarantee that person is going to get the job,” she added. “We look at the behaviors and the attitude they bring in and their willingness to be a part of the team.”
小题5:

Lockheed Martin has all sorts of jobs in all sorts of fields. One of the skills recruiters consider is the ability to work in teams.
“Most of what we do is problem solving, and you get people with different kinds of skills together to solve the problem,” said Norman Robbins, senior manager community relations. “If you are real bright but you can’t get along with anybody, you’re not going to be as successful as you will be if you can work in teams.”

Specialists say it is not easy to get used to life in a new culture. “Culture shock” is the term these specialists use when talking about the feelings that people have in a new environment. There are three stages of culture shock, say the specialists. In the first stage, the newcomers like their new environment. Then, when the fresh experience dies, they begin to hate the city, the country, the people, and everything else. In the last stage, the newcomers begin to adjust to their surroundings and, as a result, enjoy their life more.
There are some obvious factors（因素）in culture shock. The weather may be unpleasant. The customs may be different. The public service systems—the telephones, post office, or transportation—may be difficult to work out. The simplest things seem to be big problems. The language may be difficult.
Who feels culture shock? Everyone does in this way or that. But culture shock surprises most people. Very often the people having the worst culture shock are those who never had any difficulties in their own community. Coming to a new country, these people find they do not have the same established positions. They find themselves without any identity. They have to build a new self-image.
Culture shock gives rise to a feeling of disorientation（迷失方向）. This feeling may be homesickness. When homesick, people feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the strange environment, and create an escape inside their room for a sense of security. This escape does solve the problem of culture shock for the short term, but it does nothing to make the person familiar with the culture. Getting to know the new environment and gaining experience — these are the long-term solutions to the problem of culture shock.
76. When people move to a new country, they _______.
A. will get used to their new surroundings with difficulty
B. have well prepared for the new surroundings
C. will get used to the culture of the country quickly
D. will never be familiar with the culture of the country
77. According to the passage, factors that give rise to culture shock include all of the following except __________.
A. language communication                          B. weather conditions and customs
C. public service systems                                   D. homesickness
78. According to the passage, the more successful you are at home, _______.
A. the fewer difficulties you may have abroad
B. the more difficulties you may have abroad
C. the more money you will earn abroad
D. the less homesick you may feel abroad
79. When people are homesick, they tend to ______.
A. find some people to talk to                                   B. go outside to have a walk
C. visit their friends far away                                   D. stay indoors all the time
80. The writer tells us that the best way to overcome culture shock is to ______.
A. protect ourselves from unfamiliar environment
B. develop a strange sense of self-protection
C. get familiar with new culture
D. return to our own country

What do you do if you are hit in the mouth and one of your teeth is knocked out? A dentist(牙医)may be able to put the tooth back in for you, but you have to get to the dentist first．In the meantime, you have to store the tooth so that it will stay healthy．
The simplest thing to do is put the tooth back into your mouth, or you could put it in milk．Frank Courts, a dentist at the University of Florida, worked with other researchers to find the safest way of keeping knocked-out teeth．He tried putting teeth into milk, into water, and into cell-culture medium(细胞培养液)．He also tried, just drying the teeth in the open air．He used teeth that had to be removed from people’s mouths for various reasons．The teeth were put into one of the solutions(溶液)or stored in the air for one hour．Then cells from the root of the teeth were scraped-off the teeth．Dr．Courts and the others then studied how healthy these cells were．
The cell-culture medium worked best to keep a knocked-out tooth healthy outside the mouth．However, few people keep cell-culture medium handy at home or in school．
The next best thing was milk．But Dr．Courts said that the best thing of all was to wash the tooth and put it right back into its socket(牙槽)in the mouth．For some people, though, this is just too painful or upsetting．So milk will do, until you get your tooth (and your mouth)to a dentist．
小题1:This passage is mainly about ．

A．how a dentist can save a knocked-out tooth

B．how to keep a knocked-out tooth healthy

C．how Dr．Courts and other researchers made their experiments

D．how to put a knocked-out tooth back into its socket

小题2:The best way to keep a knocked-out tooth healthy outside the mouth is to store it .

A．in cell-culture medium

B．in milk

C．in water

D．in the open air

小题3:Milk can be used instead of cell-culture medium to put a knocked-out tooth in because ．

A．milk works better to keep the tooth healthy	B．milk causes less pain
C．cell-culture medium is not usually handy	D．cell-culture medium is more expensive

小题4:“Dr．Courts said that the best of al1 was to wash the tooth and put it right back into its socket in the mouth．”In the sentence, the word “best” means .

A．cheapest and healthiest	B．least painful and cheapest
C．quickest and least painful	D．easiest and healthiest

Dear Editor,
I’m a Senior I student in a middle school. This term, my favorite teacher, Miss Mao, no longer teaches us. I want to see her, but I’m afraid that she no longer likes me and I don’t want to trouble her. I really miss her. What should I do?
Tian Yan
Dear Tian Yan,
It’s bad luck that you have lost your favorite teacher, But if she is still in your school , nothing can stop you going to see her. When she isn’t busy, ask her if she minds having a quick chat. You can then tell her she was your favorite teacher------ everyone is happy to know that they are liked!
If she has left the school, it will be more difficult to meet her. It will be hard, but remember people always come and go in their lives. We can’t rely on them to be with us all the time.
You may be sad to say goodbye to her, but we can remember and learn from her. Think of her best qualities.
You could also try looking for similar qualities in your other teachers. Study hard and give your new teacher a chance.In time, you might start to see that he or she has different qualities to learn from.
Finally, you can not completely rely on other people to get you through your studies , or even your life.

“Birds are not as loyal to their partners as you might think, with divorce, child abandonment and remarriage a common part of birds’ life,” a new book has shown. Author and biology professor Bridge Stutchbury, dispels the love-bird belief that birds pair up for life. “In terms of the top 10 beliefs about birds, the lasting pair bonds that we think about, do occur in some birds, but in most of the little songbirds that we studied, no,” the professor from York University in Toronto said. The divorce rate among greater flamingos is 99 percent.
Stutchbury’s book, The Private Lives of Birds, based on 20 years of research from radio filming and DNA testing shows male Acadian flycatchers fertilize(使受孕) females far away from their home nests, “ The main discovery is that so many birds do divorce for what humans would describe as selfish reasons,” Professor Stutchbury said. She noted that females may seek out males that are more colorful and better singers, or look to “step up in the world” and move to areas that are safer and have more food. “Females are looking for the highest quality male so that their children will be of high quality,” she added.
Professor Stutchbury said shorter summers may drive females to leave their nests before their young are fully grown up so they can quickly find new mates（配偶） and lay more eggs, leaving the males to feed the hungry chicks on their own.
Males can double their success in producing children by fertilizing neighboring females, but only “mates” care for the young, and some are none the wiser. “ They can’t tell when the egg comes out and whether it’s theirs or not,” She said. “They have no way to know.”
Divorce is surprisingly common among birds, and most live with one partner for only a few months or years. Divorce rates range from 99 percent in the greater flamingo to zero in the wandering albatross(信天翁).
小题1:What does the underline word “dispels” mean?

A．States

B．Doubts

C．Confirms

D．Removes

小题2:The book The Private Lives of Birds_____.

A．shows the kind of male birds females seek out.

B．indicates the wandering albatross is the most faithful.

C．is based on Professor Stutchbury’s 20 years’ research.

D．suggests that female birds select males near their home.

小题3:According to the passage, we can infer that________.

A．young birds’ quality depends on their feather.

B．some male birds care for others’ young as their own.

C．female birds go to find males as soon as autumn comes.

D．female birds are responsible for feeding the hungry babies.

小题4: What is the passage mainly about?

A．A book about love-birds.

B．Birds’ living habits and love life

C．The fact that birds don’t love their mates forever.

D．The factors that influence birds to look for another mate.

We all enjoy the colors of autumn leaves. Did you ever wonder how and why a fall leaf changes color? Where do the yellows and oranges come from? To answer those questions, we first have to understand what leaves are and what they do.
Leaves are nature's food factories. Plants take water from the ground through their roots. They take a gas called carbon dioxide from the air. Plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose, which is a kind of sugar. Plants use glucose as food for energy and as a building block for growing. The way plants turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar is called photosynthesis, which means " putting together with light. " A chemical called chlorophyll helps make photosynthesis happen. Chlorophyll is what gives plants their green color.
As summer ends and autumn comes, the days get shorter and shorter. This is how the trees "know" to begin getting ready for winter.
During winter, there is not enough light or water for photosynthesis. The trees will rest, and live off the food they stored during summer. They begin to shut down their food-making factories. The green chlorophyll disappears from the leaves. As the bright green fades away, we begin to see yellow and orange colors. Small a-mounts of these colors have been in the leaves all along. Covered up by the green chlorophyll, we just can't see them in summer.
The bright reds and purples we see in leaves are made mostly in the fall. In some trees, like maples, glucose is trapped in the leaves after photosynthesis stops. Sunlight and the cool nights of autumn cause the leaves turn this glucose into a red color. The brown color of trees like oaks is made from wastes left in the leaves.
It is the combination of all these things that make the beautiful colors we enjoy in the fall.
小题1:The writer asked two questions in the beginning in order to .

A．persuade readers to believe something

B．introduce the topic of the passage

C．get the readers excited

D．offer something to think over

小题2: Which of the following is True according to the passage?

A．Trees don't change colours with seasons.

B．Trees can still perform photosynthesis well in winter.

C．Trees have colours like yellow and orange even in summer.

D．Trees don't need food in winter.

小题3:Photosynthesis is a way that ___________________________.

A．plants change water and carbon dioxide into sugar

B．plants turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar with the help of sunlight

C．plants use glucose as food for energy and growing

D．chlorophyll is a great help

小题4: Which is the best title for this passage?

A．Colorful trees in autumn	B．Mysteries of tree colors
C．Do you enjoy tree colors?	D．Wonderful colors in autumn
