People’s life is becoming better and better. People often travel around to relax themselves and enjoy the natural beauty. However when you are in foreign countries, you’d better understand some cultures. Here are some tips for staying safe abroad.
Don’t step on money in Thailand
In many countries, the images of the great people (such as presidents, chairpersons) are printed on the money. In Thailand it states that it’s a serious offence to insult(侮辱) any image of the Thai royal family(皇室). Actually, it’s a criminal(犯罪的) act to step on it and you could be put into prison(坐牢).
No chewing gum(口香糖)
Equally offensive in Thailand is throwing gum on the floor. There’s a 400 pounds fine(罚款) or possibly jail（牢狱） if you don’t pay up. It’s a similar story in Singapore where, by law, chewing gum can’t be bought or sold.
No swimming clothes in the city
In Barcelona(巴塞罗那), Spain, it was made illegal to wear swimwear anywhere in public away from the beach in 2011. A fine of around 100 pounds will be yours if you wear swimming clothes. Local people were very unhappy with the tourists wearing swimming costumes walking around the city.
Don’t pee(小便) in the sea
Don’t relieve yourself in the ocean in Portugal(葡萄牙). It’s against the law and you must search for the bathroom if you have a must.
Check your medicine
Japan has strict anti-stimulant drug laws(反兴奋剂药物法规), so you must be careful with your medicine, even the medicine you need when you have a cold might be stopped at the airport.
54. How many countries are talked about in this passage
A. three B. four C. five D. six
55. We can learn from the passage that ________.
A. The local people don’t care if tourists wear swimming clothes around the city.
B. You can’t chew gum only in Thailand
C. If you step on the money, you are doing something against the law in Thailand
D. You can pee anywhere in Portugal if you have to.
56. In what kind of book can we read this passage
A. travel B. advertisement C. science D. history
C
Islands are always changing their shapes, and sometimes, you may see the change happening. As a volcano(火山) near the island erupts(爆发), it shoots out streams of red-hot lava (熔岩). When the lava reaches the water around the island, it cools and forms new land, and the island grows.
Most changes are hard to see. Storms and wind usually carry dirt and sand from one side of the island to another side. Sea waves wash away soil and rocks from one beach and take them to another. So, the island changes shape slowly, a tiny bit at a time.
However, people on some small ocean islands are worried, because they think their islands are changing shape too fast. They see waves rise higher and further onto shores than they used to, and storms and winds are growing stronger too. What’s worse, places that used to stay dry have been flooded. For example, in the Solomon Islands, a country made up of small islands in the Pacific Ocean, five islands have disappeared underwater.
Scientists believe that it was because of global warming. With more gas and coal burnt for cars and factories, people produce more greenhouse gas and make the Earth warmer. Then, more ice melts and more water flows into the ocean, and sea level rises. The warmer water also causes more big storms and more serious damages.
But there is hope. Scientists are looking for ways to stop sea levels rising and for clean ways to run cars and factories. We can also help by recycling, planting trees, driving less, and wasting less. By doing these things, we can save more islands from disappearing.
57. How does an island grow
A. The red-hot lava cools and forms new land.
B. The volcano gets bigger and makes it grow.
C. The sea brings soil and rocks to it.
D. The sea level becomes lower.
58. What are the causes of disappearing islands
① More volcano eruptions. ② Warmer climate(气候).
③ Higher sea level. ④ More burnt gas and coal.
A. ①② B. ③④ C. ①②③ D. ②③④
59. Which way can prevent the islands from disappearing
A. Making more land by lava.
B. Running factories with green energy.
C. Moving people on islands to other places.
D. Burning more gas and coal.
60. What can we infer(推断) from the passage？
A. The islands will get smaller and sink someday.
B. Keeping islands from disappearing is possible.
C. Islands always change shapes, but now such changes are slow.
D. Solomon Islands have disappeared from the world.
61. What’s the scientists’ attitude(态度) about disappearing islands according to the last paragraph
A. Hopeful B. Negative(否定的) C. Doubtful(怀疑) D. Careful.
D
Who is the greatest teacher in Chinese history Many people would think of Confucius, whose birthday was September 28. Although he lived over 2,000 years ago, people still remember and respect him for his contribution (贡献) to the education today.
Confucius lived in the Kingdom of Lu, which was in Shandong Province. He lived during the Spring and Autumn Period. He had a hard childhood. His father died when he was only 3. His mother brought him up. As a child, he had to work to help his mother, but young Confucius didn’t give up studying. He visited many famous teachers and learned music, history, poetry and sports.
Later, he became a teacher and started the first public school in Chinese history. At that time only children from rich families could go to school, but Confucius believed everyone should go to school if they wanted to learn. He had about 3,000 students in his lifetime and traveled with his students from state to state.
Today, people still follow Confucius’ lessons. He told us that we all have something worthy to be learned. “When I am with three people, one of them must be better than me in some areas. I choose their good qualities and follow them. ”
He also taught us that thinking is very important in study. “All study but no thinking makes people puzzled (困惑的). All thinking but no study makes people lazy. ”
Confucius is not only a great teacher, but also a famous thinker with wise thoughts about the world and society. His most important teachings are about kindness and good manners. “A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others.” he said.
62. Confucius learned music, history, poetry and sports ________ when he was a child.
A. by teaching himself at home B. with the help of his mother
C. by going to school D. by visiting many famous teachers

B. All thinking but no study makes people lazy.
C. All study but no thinking makes people puzzled.
D. A person should be strict with himself, but be kind to others.

People’s life is becoming better and better. People often travel around to relax themselves and enjoy the natural beauty. However when you are in foreign countries, you’d better understand some cultures. Here are some tips for staying safe abroad.
Don’t step on money in Thailand
In many countries, the images of the great people (such as presidents, chairpersons) are printed on the money. In Thailand it states that it’s a serious offence to insult(侮辱) any image of the Thai royal family(皇室). Actually, it’s a criminal(犯罪的) act to step on it and you could be put into prison(坐牢).
No chewing gum(口香糖)
Equally offensive in Thailand is throwing gum on the floor. There’s a 400 pounds fine(罚款) or possibly jail（牢狱） if you don’t pay up. It’s a similar story in Singapore where, by law, chewing gum can’t be bought or sold.
No swimming clothes in the city
In Barcelona(巴塞罗那), Spain, it was made illegal to wear swimwear anywhere in public away from the beach in 2011. A fine of around 100 pounds will be yours if you wear swimming clothes. Local people were very unhappy with the tourists wearing swimming costumes walking around the city.
Don’t pee(小便) in the sea
Don’t relieve yourself in the ocean in Portugal(葡萄牙). It’s against the law and you must search for the bathroom if you have a must.
Check your medicine
Japan has strict anti-stimulant drug laws(反兴奋剂药物法规), so you must be careful with your medicine, even the medicine you need when you have a cold might be stopped at the airport.
54. How many countries are talked about in this passage
A. three B. four C. five D. six
55. We can learn from the passage that ________.

【导语】本文介绍了通过在旅游方面的建议让游客更好地在国外旅游。
【54题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Don’t step on money in Thailand”、“It’s a similar story in Singapore where, by law, chewing gum can't be bought or sold.”、“In Barcelona(巴塞罗那), Spain, it was made illegal to wear swimwear anywhere in public away from the beach in 2011”、“Don’t relieve yourself in the ocean in Portugal”和“Japan has strict anti-stimulant drug laws”可知本文提到了五个国家。故选C。

Islands are always changing their shapes, and sometimes, you may see the change happening. As a volcano(火山) near the island erupts(爆发), it shoots out streams of red-hot lava (熔岩). When the lava reaches the water around the island, it cools and forms new land, and the island grows.
Most changes are hard to see. Storms and wind usually carry dirt and sand from one side of the island to another side. Sea waves wash away soil and rocks from one beach and take them to another. So, the island changes shape slowly, a tiny bit at a time.
However, people on some small ocean islands are worried, because they think their islands are changing shape too fast. They see waves rise higher and further onto shores than they used to, and storms and winds are growing stronger too. What’s worse, places that used to stay dry have been flooded. For example, in the Solomon Islands, a country made up of small islands in the Pacific Ocean, five islands have disappeared underwater.
Scientists believe that it was because of global warming. With more gas and coal burnt for cars and factories, people produce more greenhouse gas and make the Earth warmer. Then, more ice melts and more water flows into the ocean, and sea level rises. The warmer water also causes more big storms and more serious damages.
But there is hope. Scientists are looking for ways to stop sea levels rising and for clean ways to run cars and factories. We can also help by recycling, planting trees, driving less, and wasting less. By doing these things, we can save more islands from disappearing.
57. How does an island grow
A. The red-hot lava cools and forms new land.
B. The volcano gets bigger and makes it grow.
C. The sea brings soil and rocks to it.
D. The sea level becomes lower.
58. What are the causes of disappearing islands
① More volcano eruptions. ② Warmer climate(气候).
③ Higher sea level. ④ More burnt gas and coal.
A. ①② B. ③④ C. ①②③ D. ②③④
59. Which way can prevent the islands from disappearing
A. Making more land by lava.
B. Running factories with green energy.
C. Moving people on islands to other places.
D. Burning more gas and coal.
60. What can we infer(推断) from the passage？
A. The islands will get smaller and sink someday.
B. Keeping islands from disappearing is possible.
C. Islands always change shapes, but now such changes are slow.
D. Solomon Islands have disappeared from the world.
61. What’s the scientists’ attitude(态度) about disappearing islands according to the last paragraph
A. Hopeful B. Negative(否定的) C. Doubtful(怀疑) D. Careful.
【答案】57. A 58. D 59. B 60. B 61. A

细节理解题。根据第四段的“With more gas and coal burnt for cars and factories, people produce more greenhouse gas and make the Earth warmer. Then, more ice melts and more water flows into the ocean, and sea level rises. The warmer water also causes more big storms and more serious damages.”可知随着汽车和工厂燃烧更多的天然气和煤炭，人们产生更多的温室气体，使地球变暖。然后，更多的冰融化，更多的水流入海洋，海平面上升。温暖的水也会导致更多的大风暴和更严重的破坏，因此是因为海平面的上升，气候的变暖以及天然气和煤炭的排放导致。故选D。
【59题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Scientists are looking for ways to stop sea levels rising and for clean ways to run cars and factories.”可知科学家们正在寻找阻止海平面上升的方法，以及运行汽车和工厂的清洁方法。因此选项B“以绿色能源运行工厂”符合。故选B。
【60题详解】

【61题详解】
观点态度题。根据最后一段的“But there is hope.”可知是有希望的，因此科学家的态度是抱有希望的。故选A。
