21、   Clothes are traditionally made of natural materials, such as cotton, leather and wool. They are all from plants or animals, but that doesn’t mean they’re friendly to the earth. For example, farmers have to use a lot of chemicals to grow cotton plants.

Scientists are now looking for new ways to make clothing materials. They hope the new materials are both comfortable and good for the earth. Scientists have worked out how to make materials out of corn husks（棉籽）, chicken feathers and rice straws.

“They used to be useless things. We always have a problem of how to deal with them.” Yang, a scientist says, “ Now, we can turn them into beautiful materials. Chicken feathers are better than other things. They have small air pockets like honeycombs. That means it will be very warm if you use them to make a jacket or sweater, and I think more and more people will like to buy these kinds of clothes.”

【1】Clothes are traditionally made of __________.

A.natural materials B.chicken feather

C.rice straw D.corn husks

【2】What are the new clothing materials?

A.Corn husks and rice straws.

B.Cotton and wool.

C.Leather and wool.

D.Bird feather and chicken feather.

【3】What does the underlined word “ honeycombs” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?

A.鸟巢 B.蜂窝 C.渔网 D.蜂蜜

【4】Why are chicken feathers better than other materials?

A.They are from plants.

B.They are traditional clothing materials.

C.They have small air pockets like honeycombs.

D.They are new clothing materials.

【5】What’s the best title of this passage?

A.New clothing materials.

B.New clothes.

C.Natural materials.

D.New ways of making clothing.

22、   Modesty(谦逊) is a valuable quality in many cultures around the world. In China, this is no different. However, the phrase “毛遂自荐” seems to disagree with this.

During the Warring States Period, the Qin army marched(进军) on Handan. Seeing that Handan was in danger, Prince Pingyuan sought help from the state of Chu. He wanted to pick 20 talented people to go with him. However, he could only find 19 people who were good enough. Then, a man named Mao Sui volunteered.

Prince Pingyuan looked at Mao Sui with doubt, “How long have you been here with me?”

“Three years,” Mao Sui answered.

“I hear that a person with talent is like an awl(锥子) in a cloth bag. Its sharp point will soon pierce(戳) through the bag. You’ve been here for a long time, but I haven’t seen any of your achievements. Maybe you don’t have any talent.” said Prince Pingyuan.

“What I’m asking you now is to put me into that bag. If you do that, I will pierce through it. But not only the point — the whole awl,” Mao Sui said confidently.

Impressed, Prince Pingyuan allowed Mao to join his team, and Mao proved very helpful. Now the phrase “Mao Sui recommending himself” is used to describe someone who volunteers to do a task.

However, there is a fine line between self-confidence and arrogance(傲慢). It’s important to believe in yourself, but a strong ego can harm your career and professional relationships. So we recommend letting your work speak for itself.

【1】Where was Mao Sui from?

A.Qin. B.Chu. C.Handan. D.Pingyuan.

【2】What does the phrase “毛遂自荐” mean?

A.Show modesty. B.Feel unconfident.

C.Be professional. D.Volunteering for a task.

【3】The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 6 means ________.

A.putting an awl into a bag

B.putting Mao Sui into a bag

C.letting Mao Sui join the team

D.refusing Mao Sui

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A.Modesty isn’t a valuable quality.

B.Mao Sui was a confident person.

C.Prince Pingyuan didn’t like Mao Sui.

D.The writer thinks we should learn from Mao Sui.

23、Mario always says how many friends he has at school, and how he is so friendly to everyone.

One day, his grandfather gave him a special chair to test whether his schoolmates were real friends or not. The chair couldn’t be seen by people. His grandfather told him, “Take it. If you take it to school and you manage to sit on it, you’ll know who your true friends are.”

The next day, Mario took the chair and went to school. At breaktime he asked his friends to form a circle, and he put himself in the middle, with his chair.

“Nobody moves! You’re about to see something amazing,” Mario said. And Mario tried to sit on the chair. But he missed and fell on the floor. Everyone laughed.

24、     Sometimes people call ours a “throwaway society”. That means that we’re always throwing away old things and buying new ones. Many times, you no longer need something, but someone else may just need to buy one. For example, if your baby doesn’t like his toy car any longer, why not give it to a nearly family who has a little kid? That’s one less plastic toy car that they need to buy. It’s also one less plastic toy needs to be produced, packaged and shipped to the toy store.

     Here are some other ways to help save resources (资源)for the society:

   ★Use the other side of the paper.

   ★Use rechargeable (可再充电的) batteries for your electric toys, MP3 players, cell phones, and cameras.

   ★ Choose reusable travel cups instead of disposable (一次性的) paper or plastic cups.

   ★Take your own cloth shopping bags when you go shopping.

   ★ Drink tap water instead of buying bottled water.

     And there are some things you can exchange with your friends, for example, books, toys, even clothes. It's a way for everyone to get something new without spending any money and without throwing many things away.

【1】The underlined word “ours” in the passage refers to (指代) _______.

A．our society

B．our old things

C．our life

D．our throwaway things

【2】According to the writer, if we give a second - hand toy car to a neighbor kid, we can____.

A．buy another new one

B．help toy business develop

C．make the family very thankful to us

D．help save resources for the society

【3】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A．We should buy things that can be reused in our daily life.

B．We can exchange some things with others for further use.

C．It's good for us to throw away old things and buy new ones.

D．We are supposed to give the things we no longer need to our neighbors.

【4】What should we do in our daily life after reading the passage?

A．Try to throw as few old things as we can.

B．Use as many disposable things as possible.

C．Drink bottled water even though there is tap water around.

D．Buy everything we need instead of exchanging them with others.

25、   Jim and Cathy come from a typical American family. As the elder brother, Jim often o【1】 (主动提出) to help Cathy work out problems. Jim plays f【2】

(足球) with great skills. But there is a cloud hanging over Jim′s development. His mother often c【3】 (比较) Jim with other children. She always wants him to compete with others and win. This causes much p【4】 (压力) for Jim. It also pushes Jim into a crazy and nervous place. Jim often argues with his mother and the r【5】 (关系) between them are difficult. Jim doesn′t want to c【6】 (继续) practicing football anymore. I guess Jim wants to cut out all the matches.

In my opinion, everyone has his own world to look through. It′s w【7】 (错误的) to push Jim so hard. Perhaps they should deal with this problem. They should find a chance to explain to each other as quickly as possible. Firstly, as m【8】 (成员) of a family, they should often communicate to get on well with each other. It′s clear that parents can′t give children too much pressure. I【9】(反而), they should allow their children to do whatever they like. S【10】 (其次), parents should have proper communication with their children.
