My sister Alli and I have been trying to get people to stop dropping cigarette butts(烟蒂) for seven years. One day, we were walking in our hometown and saw hundreds of cigarette butts on the ground. They made the town look so ugly that we decided to start a group to make people stop dropping butts. We called it “No Butts About It”. At first, we drew pictures with “The Earth is Not Your Ashtray(烟灰缸)” written on them. We put the pictures around our hometown---in parks, by beaches, and along roads. We wanted to make people understand that dropping butts hurts the environment. Most smokers don’t think that dropping butts hurts the earth. But it does! All rubbish does. Later, we wrote to companies and asked them for money to help us. We used the money to buy ashtrays to give smokers. We wanted smokers to carry the ashtrays with them so they didn’t have to drop butts. At the moment, we are trying to get cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each pack of cigarettes. Some companies want to do it. Many people have started to join our group since it began. Today there are 45 other “No Butts About It” groups in America. And there are even groups in England, Australia and India! Many newspapers have written about my sister and I over the last seven years. And we have won many prizes for our good work. But we are not interested in prizes. We just want to make the earth a better and cleaner place for animals, plants and people. One day it will be. 1.Why did they start the group? A. Because they don’t like cigarette. B. Because they want to make money. C. Because they want people to know them. D. Because they want to protect the environment. 2.How many “No Butts About It” groups are there in America? A. 7 B. 45 C. 46 D. 49. 3.The writer lives in_________ A. America. B. England. C. Australia. D. India. 4.What did the writer do the following EXCEPT__________? A. starting a group called “No Butts About It” B. asking newspapers to write about her sister and her C. writing to companies to ask them for help D. managing to get some cigarette companies to put an ashtray in each cigarette pack

I grew up in New Hampshire, a small town in South Canada, where in my father’s words for the seasons were “Spring, Summer, Fairtime and Winter!” At that time, a week-long fair was held in the town every autumn. Thousands of people from other towns came to sell and buy things. It was the busiest time of the year. When “Fairtime” came, my grandma became the most “useful” and busiest person of the family. Grandma was a kind, well-educated old lady. She was good at cooking. All her relatives liked the food she cooked. During “Fairtime”, they would come to live in her house and have meals there. Grandma was always happy to look after them. Year after year, many people moved to big cities. There was no longer “Fairtime”. Grandma became very old and was gradually(逐渐地) going blind. My parents and I moved to live with Grandma in her house. We did our best to make her day-to-day life as comfortable as possible. I was at high school then. What I often did at home was to help Grandma with the daily newspaper’s crossword puzzle.（填字游戏） However, she didn’t look happy. She often sat in her room for hours, without saying a word. To attract people to move back, the Town Hall decided to reopen the fair. One day, when I came back from school, I saw Grandma wearing her glasses, washing the dishes in the kitchen. With a big smile on her face, she looked a lot much younger. She told me that her two nieces（侄女）would come. “They said the food I cooked was very delicious and they want to stay in my house again,” Grandma said happily. “They will stay here for one week and we can have a big party. That must be the busiest week I’ve had in years!” I suddenly realized that Grandma didn’t want to be looked after. She wanted to be “useful”, appreciated and helpful. 1.What was mentioned to make Grandma happy in the passage? A. My parents moved to live with her. B. The writer did the crossword puzzle with her. C. Her two nieces would come. D. We tried to make her live comfortably. 2.Which is NOT true according to the passage? A. Grandma preferred looking after others to being looked after. B. The fair usually lasts for about a week. C. Grandma was kind and educated very well. D. Grandma liked to stay in the room for hours without saying a word. 3.What does the underlined word“appreciated”mean? A. 领会 B. 欣赏 C. 鉴别 D. （使）增值 4.What’s the best title for the passage? A. Fairtime B. My “Old” Grandma C. A Small Town D. Grandma’s Family

任务型阅读 阅读下列短文，根据短文中的信息完成文后表格。在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。（每空一词） Mayme Clayton collected books, magazines and letters written by African Americans. Her son, Avery Clayton, thought her collection was important. Unlike most books, these were rare and hard to find. They were written by writers who helped shape African American culture. One book in the collection was written by Phillis Wheatley. Wheatley was a slave (奴隶)who wrote poetry. She was the first African American to publish a book. Wheatley herself signed (签名) the book in the Claytons’ collection. No one else owns a copy signed by Phillis Wheatley. By the time she passed away at age 83, Mrs. Clayton had more than 30,000 books by or about black people. Her collection also includes papers about slaves, photos, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists. It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in the United States. Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures. Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work, part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know these things existed（存在）,” a man from California’s library says. The collections new home is likely to be in Culver City, California. Part of Avery Clayton’s dream is to share the cultural riches(财富) his mother collected with others. He especially wants kids to have a chance to see the collection. “At present African American culture is being explained by pop culture,” he says, “It’s important to offer a more complete picture.”
