Dear Simon,
I am glad that you can share your worries with me. Students of our age may have some problems. However, I believe communication is key here. Try to explain to your parents how important music is to you and how it helps you relax after a long day. Your parents think rock music is very noisy, you can turn down the music so that they won’t feel bad. Or you can also choose light music instead. It can make you feel calm and peaceful.
If your parents worry about your schoolwork, you can have a communication with them. Let them know you can achieve a balance between music and schoolwork.
Don’t be so sad. I hope my advice is worth taking.
Yours,

It takes a little skill to do this experiment, but the result is truly surprising.
What do you need √ Several rubber balloons. √12-inch bamboo skewers（竹 签）. √ Liquid soap（洗手液）. Step 1 Blow up a balloon, let some of the air out of it, and then tie it closed with a string. If there is no string, just make a knot with the mouth of the balloon. Do not inflate the balloon completely!
Step 2 Rub Liquid soap over the skewer from point to end.
Step 3 Gently twist（搓抢）and push the skewer into the balloon near the knot. If the balloon pops, go back to Step 1.
Step 4 When the skewer is in the balloon, slowly twist and push it through the thick part of the balloon. The tip of the skewer should pass completely through the balloon.
What will happen ▲The balloon does not pop, even though it has a skewer in it.
Why won’t it pop *Rubber is made out of long chains of molecules（分子）. *The skewer pushes these molecules aside. *The molecules mix with the liquid soap and they stick together tightly. *The liquid soap on the skewer fills the hole and the air cannot get out.

The teen years are an exciting time for girls, but these years can also be filled with worries and struggles. Parents really care for them, even if they don’t always act like it. They need your love, guidance, and support each day to help them become healthy and happy.

Turn her mistakes into lessons, show her you still love her, and point out the good thing she does. Teach her not to be ashamed of having a problem with stress, grades, weight, drugs, or alcohol.

When you first meet Meggie, you may think she’s strange. She often tells people which word “tastes” good and who has a “delicious” name. But she’s not crazy. She has synesthesia (伴生感觉、通感), something only one in 2,000 people has.
People who have synesthesia experience the world differently. For some people, different words “taste” differently, for some, numbers or letters have colors, and for some, music “touches” parts of their bodies. Many of them experience more than one kind of synesthesia, while some have just one, like Meggie.
Each of them has their own experience—two people with synesthesia may both “feel” music, but they almost never feel the music in the same way. For example, one may feel the music of the violin lightly brushing his face; the other may feel it on her ankle (脚踝). And one’s experience of synesthesia is always the same. If they see the number 5 in the color blue, then 5 is blue every time they see it.
There’s one thing about synesthesia: it can’t be “turned off”. If you have synesthesia, you’ll experience it all the time. Meggie once met a guy and his name made her think of the taste of bad eggs. He was a fun guy, but after thinking about his name all night, she felt too sick to be friends with him. Even so, Meggie, like most people with synesthesia, still likes this “gift” because that’s what makes her different.
48. What do you learn about Meggie from the first paragraph
A. She has a strange name. B. She is a good person.C. She is a crazy person. D. She is special in a way.
49. Why did Meggie stop being friends with the guy
A. He often played jokes on her. B. He enjoys eating bad eggs.
C. She couldn’t stand his name. D. She did not like his gift.
50. Which of the following might be said by Meggie
A. “The sound of drums touches my back.” B. “The name Shakespeare tastes like an apple.”
C. “The number zero is in bright purple.” D. “The music of the violin lightly brushes my face.”
51. Which of the following is Not True according to the passage
A. People who have synesthesia can always experience it.
B. People who have synesthesia all like their special “gifts”.
C. People who have synesthesia have their own experiences.
D. People who have synesthesia experience the world in different ways.
D
Most crickets (蟋蟀) live in the warm places of the world, but one species (物种)—the lava cricket (熔岩蟋蟀) makes its home in one of the most unfriendly environments on the earth: volcanoes (火山), where the air is not clean and temperatures are unreasonably high. Shortly after a volcano breaks out, this kind of cricket suddenly appears. They are only found in Hawaii, where the locals have known about them for centuries, but researchers know very little about them.
Scientists find the lava cricket to be a really unusual example of a pioneer species. Pioneer species are the plants or animals which are the first to live in the places that were once full of life, but became poor because of sudden changes to the environment. The most common pioneer species are simple plants like mosses that turn rock into the soil. This soil allows more plants to grow there and the place slowly begins to recover.
But where do lava crickets fit in this cycle And more importantly, how do they live where no other life exists (存在) These questions about lava crickets have caught researchers’ attention for many years. What’s more, lava crickets have something different that makes them even less suitable to live in hard conditions. Since they don’t have wings like other species of crickets, they can’t move quickly from place to place. Their lack (缺少) of wings also makes it more difficult for males to chirp or sing in order to find a female partner.
A scientific team from the University of Minnesota has set up a research station at one of Hawaii’s most active volcanoes, Kilauca. The team will study the lava cricket to find out what makes it such a natural pioneer species. Whatever they discover, their research will certainly provide more interesting facts about the life cycle of these special crickets.
52.What makes lava crickets special
A.Their feeding habits. B.How they protect themselves.
C.Their living environment. D.How they communicate with each other.
53.What is the second paragraph mainly about
A.What a pioneer species is. B.Where to find lava crickets.
C.How pioneer species are different. D.Why there’s no research on pioneer species.
54.What is the writer’s attitude (态度) towards the study from the University of Minnesota
A.Doubtful. B.Uncertain. C.Curious. D.Hopeful.
55.What is the main purpose of this text
A.To introduce a special pioneer species. B.To show the importance of pioneer species
C.To describe the differences between crickets. D.To explain the challenges lava crickets are facing.
（二）阅读下面短文，从所给选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺，结构完整，其中有一项是多余选项。
In many cultures, white often means something positive. A white-collar job, for example, is the kind of job many people look for, working with your brain and not your hands.
White represents purity. 56 Women wear white on their wedding day. Sometimes white is used in expressions that are not good, like “white wash”. 57 However, it means something different today: to hide or to cover up mistakes or failures. 58 In ancient Thailand, a white elephant was thought to be a sacred (神圣的) animal, 59 The kings of those days gave a white elephant to the people they disliked. Once they received this sacred animal as a gift, they were not allowed to sell or kill it. 60 In America, when people want to throw away their furniture or clothes, they often have a “white elephant sale”.
A.A “white elephant” is another example.
B.but it was very expensive to keep.
C.so people like it very much.
D.Today, a “white elephant” means something that is big, useless and unwanted.
E.At first, “white wash” meant to paint something with white paint to make it look better.
F.That is why doctors and nurses usually wear white uniforms.

When I studied at the Overseas Family School in Singapore, we held an activity called MAD Week in early April. “MAD” stands for “music, art and drama”. It is like a kind of art festival for students to perform themselves in front of people and enjoy the magic of art.
At the beginning of MAD Week, we had to wear a hat to school. To my surprise, most of the students made creative hats by themselves. Some girls chose to work as a team and wore hats that looked like ice cream. One boy made a really tall hat that he could hardly wear! As for me, I used paper, feathers and even candies to make my hat creative.
I joined the “MAD Hat Parade”, too. Groups of students and teachers walked with their fantastic hats. It was great fun taking pictures with them, and I was so glad to have a “MAD Hat Day” like this. It’s really a good way for students to show their creative ideas and be interested in the arts.
61.When was MAD Week held
62.What does “MAD” stand for
63.Who made creative hats for most of the students
64.List one of the activities the writer took part in during the week.
65.What do you think of this “MAD Week”

When we talk about Chinese handmade paper, 76.p you think of Xuan paper. However, there are different kinds tn different places, and Lianshi paper（连史纸）from Fujian is one of them.
Going back 400 years, Lianshi paper is made by hand using 77.b . According to Fujian Daily, Lianshi paper weighs only 19 grams(克)per square meter, 78.b it is strong. Thanks to this, Lianshi paper was listed as a provincial intangible cultural heritage(省级非物质文化遗产)in Fujian in 2008.
