Parents’ meetings may be your worst nightmare (噩梦). However, that’s not always the case. The parents’ meeting we had after our mid-term examinations, for instance, couldn’t have been more surprising.

Sitting in our chairs next to our parents, we felt like we were on pins and needles, expecting a final outburst when they examined our grades and rankings. However, our teacher came to our rescue. He told our parents the stress we faced in our daily school lives and how hard we had worked for the college entrance examination. “No matter the score, they all studied very hard and each one of them has made progress. They deserve encouragement rather than blame,” he said. When they heard these words, many parents nodded, their anger gone. Well, to be honest, we hadn’t worked that hard before the meeting, but we decided we would try our best to live up to our teacher’s expectations after it.

Another highlight of this parents’ meeting was when our parents read our letters that we had written in advance. In our daily lives, we are so busy doing homework and preparing for exams that we hardly have time to communicate with our parents. Yet this parents’ meeting gave us an opportunity to show our appreciation. In the letters, we expressed our love for them and gratitude for everything they had done for us. Many parents burst into tears after reading their children’s letters.

So you see, our parents’ meetings may not be as bad as we think. They could be opportunities to bring us closer to our parents.

It was a snowy Friday. When I observed the snowflakes falling onto my car, I really began to wonder if I was going to make it on time. Of course I must, because I have no option.

About two weeks ago, what my daughter Ellen had talked about was he Christmas concert to be held in her school and some rumors about it. “Mom, Rachel was supposed to sing alone, but guess what happened? She’s not! Linda will replace her to do it.” “Mom, I get to stand next to Tyler in the whole concert!” “Mom, you won’t believe it, but I Lexie’s whole family is coming to the concert, even from another state!” Making a long way out of state to see third graders sing Christmas carols seemed to be a pretty big deal for her.

When I sat in traffic, I thought about all the school events I had attended alone. Elllen never mentioned it, but I wondered how she felt about me being the only one whoever came to her events. My own family lived out of town, and her father and his family never quite managed to fit those things into their schedules. I wondered if it bothered her.

At eight o’clock the concert was scheduled to begin. With only a few minutes to spare, I found myself running: first, through the snow-drifted parking lot, then through the school passage. I entered the crowded hall and found a vacant seat near the front. From her place onstage, Ellen saw me run for the chair, and she smiled. I was close enough to hear the loud conversation of the children onstage. “Look, Ellen, there is my uncle and my cousin. They came all the way from West Virginia. I can’t believe my whole family is here!” Ellen smiled at Lexie and said, “My whole family is here, too! Look, there she is!” Ellen gave me a big smile. I

saved back at her, never once noticing the melting snow dripping off my head. It suddenly occurred to me that while we tried to teach our children all about life, they actually taught us what life was all about. 25. What can we know from the passage?

A. Ellen didn’t get along well with her family B .Ellen’s attitude towards the concert was defensive C. Ellen’s classmates fooled her

D. Ellen’s mother put emphasis on her school events

26. What can we infer about the author from last two paragraphs? A. She came to the concert from another state B .She regretted not accompanying her daughter C. She was nearly late for the Christmas concert D. She failed to understand her daughter’s words

27. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Understanding Is Everything B. My Whole Family Is Here C. Speak out Your Love in Time D. Conflict Ends up With a Smile

Pierre is a 25-year-old penguin(企鹅)at the California Academy of Sciences. Due to his old age, he was losing his feathers, which made him feel too cold to swim in the pool. Therefore, biologists at the academy had a wet suit created for this penguin to help him get back in the swimming pool.

Unlike marine(海生的)mammals, which have a layer of blubber(鲸脂)to keep them warm, penguins depend on their waterproof feathers. Without them, Pierre was unwilling to jump into the swimming pool and ended up trembling on the side of the pool while his 19 peers played in the water.

“He was cold；he would shake,” said Pam Schaller, a senior biologist. Schaller first tried a heat lamp to keep Pierre warm. Then she got another idea: if wet suits keep humans warm in the cold Pacific, why not make one for Pierre? Schaller designed the suit, which covered Pierre’s body and had small openings for his flippers (鳍).

“I would walk behind him and look at where there were any gaps, and cut and refit until it looked like it was extremely suitable.”she said．

One concern was that the other penguins would reject Pierre in his new suit, but in fact, they accepted his new look. He swam freely and got along with others well, although he was the only penguin with a black stomach.

Schaller couldn’t say for sure whether the wet suit allowed Pierre to recover his fine feathers, but “certainly we were able to keep him comfortable during a period of time that would have been very difficult for him to stay comfortable”. Pierre will take off his suit after his new feathers grow back. 28. Pierre felt too cold to swim in the pool because of_______.

A. having few feathers due to old age B. not having a layer of blubber C. having no wet suit D. others penguins rejecting him

29. The idea of making a wet suit for Pierre came from_______.

A. total invention B. the use of wet suit on humans C. the use of heat lamp D. waterproof feathers 30. Schaller followed Pierre in order to see_______. A. whether other penguins would reject him

B. whether the wet suit would keep the feathers from recovering C. if the wet suit kept warm

D. if anywhere of the wet suit needed to be cut and refit 31. The best title of the passage is_______.

A. Unwilling to Swim B. Old Penguin Getting Bald(秃的)

C. Wet suit for An old Penguin D. Strange Look of Pierre

Are you a gourmand(美食主义者)? Do you want to eat every delicious food in the world? Then do you watch the popular program? “A Bite of China” is a documentary on Chinese delicious food which has been broadcasted by CCTV. Is there any holiday that

- 4 -

isn't celebrated with a special festival food? Here are several traditional Chinese foods:

Eggs hold a special meaning in many cultures, and China is no exception. The Chinese believe eggs mean producing something new. After a baby is born, parents may hold a \egg and ginger party,\where they pass out eggs to announce the birth. In some areas of China the number of eggs represents the sex of the child, for example, an odd number for a girl, and an even number when a boy has been born.

Noodles are a symbol of long life in Chinese culture. They are as much a part of a Chinese birthday celebration as a birthday cake with lit candles is in many countries. Since noodles represent long life, it is considered very unlucky to cut it off.

Although westerners sometimes may be very sorry to see fish lying on a plate, in China a whole fish is a symbol of richness. In fact, at a party it is traditional to serve the whole fish last, pointed toward the valued guest. Fish also has a special meaning because the Chinese word for fish, yu, sounds like the word for richness or plenty, and it is believed that eating fish will help your wishes come true in the year to come.

A very popular dish during the Dragon Boat Festival is Zongzi. This tasty dish is made of rice dumplings with meat, peanut or other delicious food in bamboo leaves. The tradition of Zongzi is meant to remind us of a great patriot, Qu Yuan. The 50-minute program tries to bring something new by presenting more cultural elements, such as eating habits and the quality of eating. 32. A bite of China is _______________.

A. a documentary B. a book C. a magazine D. a newspaper

33. A girl has been born in Mr. Li’s home. How many red eggs may he pass out to his friends according to Chinese tradition?

A. two eggs B. none C. three eggs D. six eggs

34. Which of the following is right according to the passage?

- 5 -

A. We can cut birthday noodles off in China if we think they are too long. B. It is impolite to serve a whole fish last at a party in China. C. The program lasts for one hour only.

D. There are many kinds of Zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival. 35. What does the writer mean in the last paragraph?

A. The writer thinks the program is too long.

B. The writer thinks the program has more meanings inside than the story itself. C. The writer thinks everyone can have a good eating habit after watching the program.

D. The writer thinks the program has brought many kinds of delicious food to us. 第二节(共5小题：每小题2分，满分l0分)
