Every week, Brad’s parents gave him some pocket money. They didn’t give him the money as a gift, though. Brad actually earned it. Each day, Brad took out the trash and cleared the table after dinner. He fed the family dog and took him for walks. For all of this work, Brad earned $12 each week. The problem was, the money Brad earned seemed to be spent out just as quickly as he earned it. His dad said that money seemed to “burn a hole in his pocket”. Brad spent his money on video games more than anything else. He never seemed to have enough money, though.
Dad suggested Brad creating a budget(预算) to set aside money each week for certain expenses. “You spend only as much as your budget allows. That way, you are sure to have money for the different things you want.”
That night, the family made a list of the different types of things Brad wanted to be able to buy. The list included categories such as snacks, entertainment, and clothing. And a budget should also set aside a percentage of earnings as savings so that he would be able to buy something expensive in the future. “It can also be your rainy day fund,” said his mom. Brad gave her a puzzled look. “A rainy day fund is there to help out in an emergency,” she explained. They also said it was important to set aside a little money to help others.
From that day on, Brad always seemed to have enough money to do the things he wanted. The first year, he set aside $104, he chose to give the money to the town’s animal shelter. Giving money to help those in need made Brad feel good. He also used some of his savings to buy a cool new video game console. That made him feel good, too.
44. What is the meaning of the underlined expression “burn a hole in his pocket” in Paragraph 1
A. Be difficult to earn. B. Be too hot to keep.
C. Hide in his pocket. D. Disappear quickly.
45. The rest part of Brad’s budget is ________.
A. money for video games B. money for entertainment
C. savings a rainy day fund D. money for food & clothes

B. It’s good to make a budget and learn to use the money properly.
C. Teenagers can learn to feed the family dog to earn some money.
D. Teenagers are able to earn their pocket money by themselves.

Every boy wants to find treasure. Tom was no different. One summer day Tom told Huck about his idea.
“Where can we look for treasure ” asked Huck.
“It’s hidden on islands, under dead trees, but mostly under the floors in haunted (闹鬼的) houses.”
So, one Saturday afternoon Tom and his friend went to look for treasure at the haunted house on Cardiff Hill. It was a quiet and lonely place, which made the boys feel very frightened. They entered quietly, and explored downstairs. There were cobwebs everywhere and everything was old and broken. Then they threw their tools in a corner and walked upstairs, but there was nothing there. They were just about to go downstairs and start digging when Tom stopped.
“What is it ” whispered Huck, going white with fear.
“Keep quiet! There’s someone downstairs.”
The boys lay down, looking through the holes in the wooden floor. There were two men downstairs. One was an old Spaniard in a wide sombrero hat and the other was dirty and unpleasant-looking.
Tom and Huck shook with fear when they heard the Spaniard speak because they found it was Indian Joe. He said, “It’s time for us to move, partner. What will we do with the $650 from the robbery ”
“Let’s keep $30 each and leave the bag here.”
The dirty man went to the fireplace and moved a stone. Then he lifted out a bag full of money and took out some coins. The two boys forgot all their fears when they saw there was real treasure downstairs. Then Indian Joe started digging a hole with his knife and the knife hit something.“What is it ” asked the other man.
“It’s a box,” said Indian Joe. And he put in his hand and pulled out a handful of gold coins. The other man found the boys’ tools, and they soon pulled out the box.
“There’s thousands of dollars in there,” said Indian Joe.
“The Murrell Gang used this area one summer,” said his partner.
“They must have hidden their money here.”
“What will we do with this, Joe Will we bury (埋) it again ”
“No, someone might find it,” said Indian Joe. “Let’s bury it in the number two den.”
Tom and Huck got up as soon as the two men left. They decided to watch out for the “man in the sombrero” when he came to town and find out where the number two den was.
47. Who does the underlined word “He” refer to
A. Tom. B. Huck. C. Indian Joe D. The dirty man.
48. Where was the bag of money probably from
A. The two men robbed others of it. B. Some villages hid it there.
C. The owner of the house left it there. D. Tom and Huck buried it there.
49. Which is the right order of what happened in the story
a. The two boys threw their tools in a corner.
b. The dirty man lifted out a bag full of money.
c. Tom and Huck went to look for treasure one day.
d. Indian Joe found a box full of gold coins.
e. The Murrell Gang hid their money in the house.
A. e-c-a-b-d B. e-c-a-d-b C. c-a-b-d-e D. c-d-b-e -a
50. What can we infer (推断) from the passage

B. The man in the sombrero was Indian Joe.
C. Tom would join Indian Joe and be a robber.
D. Tom and Huck would try to get the treasure.

Creating an interest in what they learn.

七．阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，计10分）
阅读短文，回答下面5个问题。（每题答案不超过10个词）
Mark Twain is one of the most quoted writers ever. There are hundreds of his quotations (语录) in books, on posters and on websites. Here is an example:
“If you tell the truth, you don’t have to remember anything.”—Mark Twain.
Quotations like this one give us advice. It warns us that telling a lie is much more difficult than telling the truth. Telling a lie means you have to remember what you said each time you tell the lie. If you tell the truth, there is nothing to remember. He suggests that you shouldn’t lie not because it is wrong, but because it is hard work. Here is another example.
“Always obey your parents when they are present.”—Mark Twain
Again the quotation gives good advice—to always obey your parents, but the humorous part is when they are present. The quotation tells you to obey your parents when they are there with you —because they can see what you are doing.
Albert Einstein’s quotations are also popular. Many of his quotations are inspirational (鼓舞人心的). This means that they help us to do our best and be the best person we can be. Here is an example:
“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.”—Albert Einstein
This is a much more serious quotation than the two Mark Twain ones. It gives us a lot to think about. Also, because this was said by Albert Einstein, it makes us want to take the quotation serious. This quotation gives us hope that we can learn from any mistake we made yesterday. It reminds (提醒) us to always look closely at everything we do and ask the right questions to help us achieve our best.
76. Where can we always find Mark Twain’s quotations
_______________________________________
77. According to Mark Twain, why should we always obey our parents when they are present
_______________________________________
78. What does “Learn from yesterday” in Albert Einstein’s quotation really mean
_______________________________________
79. What’s the purpose of not to stop questioning
_______________________________________
80. Which of the three quotations impresses (印象) you most Why
_______________________________________
