解析試題分析:這篇短文是作者對自己的工作的自述。第一段中的作者是一個小丑,他去醫(yī)院里幫助生病的孩子們;第二段中的作者是一個瑜伽老師,他讓人們通過笑來保持身體的健康。兩個作者都非常喜歡自己的工作。
【小題1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段短文中I’ve been working as a professional clown(小丑)for nearly two years. Before that, I was an actor for nine years.和第二段短文中Before that, I was a dentist可知,兩段材料中的作者都換了工作。故選A。
【小題2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段短文中I changed jobs because I wanted to do more in life than make people laugh. What if I could help people, too?可知,作者說他換了工作,是因為他想在生活中做更多的事情,來讓人們笑,去幫助人們。故選D。
【小題3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段短文中Sometimes I worked with famous people. It’s true that being rich can be stressful! Some famous people can be unpleasant at times可知,有時候作者會和一些名人一起工作,他們都很有壓力,有的時候,名人也不開心。故選B。
【小題4】詞義猜測題。根據(jù)劃線的單詞所在的句子My job was very difficult and I used to feel fed up可知作者說他的工作很難,他過去經(jīng)常感到厭煩。interested 感興趣的;satisfied 感到滿意的;disappointed 感到失望的;bored感到厭煩的。根據(jù)作者說的difficult,我們可以推測劃線的短語的意思應該是感到厭煩的。故選D。
【小題5】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段短文中I try to encourage sick children in hospital to laugh and smile.以及第二段短文中Everyone has fun in a laughter yoga class…But did you know that isn’t an excellent kind of exercise? You move your whole body when you laugh可知,這兩個作者的工作都使人們開心,健康。故選D。

Once there was a huge apple tree. A little boy loved to come and play around it every day. He loved the tree and the tree loved to play with him.
Time went by…the little boy had grown up and he no longer played around the tree every day. One day, the boy came back to the tree and he looked sad. “Come and play with me,” the tree asked the boy. “I’m no longer a kid. I wouldn’t play around the tree any more.” the boy replied. “I want toys. I need money to buy them.” “Sorry, I don’t have money. But you can pick all my apples and sell them. So, you will have money.” The boy picked all the apples on the tree and left happily. The boy never came back after he picked the apples.
One day, the boy returned and the tree was so excited, “Come and play with me,” the tree said. “I don’t have time to play. I have to work for my family. We need a house for shelter. Can you help?” “Sorry, I don’t have a house. But you can cut off my branches to build your house.” So the boy cut all the branches off the tree and left happily. The tree was glad to see him happy but the boy never came back since then. The tree was again lonely and sad.
One hot summer day, the boy returned and the tree was pleased. “Come and play with me!” the tree said. “I am sad and getting old. I want to go sailing to relax myself. Can you give me a boat?” “Use my trunk to build your boat. You can sail far away and be happy.” So the boy cut the tree trunk to make a boat. He went sailing and never showed up for a long time.
Finally, the boy returned after he left for so many years. “Sorry, my boy. But I don’t have anything for you any more. The only thing left is my dying root,” the tree said with tears ①.
“Good! Old tree root is the best place to lean on and rest. Come and sit down with me and rest.” The boy sat down and the tree was glad and smiled with tears ② …
【小題1】----Why did the boy pick all the apples on the tree?
----Because __________.
A.he wanted to eat them |

A.to have a house to live in | B.nothing except a place to rest |

A.plant more apple trees | B.learn from the boy |
C.a(chǎn)lways stay at home | D.be thankful to our parents |
A.The phrase “with tears ①” means that the apple tree was sad because the boy asked for too much. |
B.The phrase “with tears ②” means that the apple tree was still happy because she could help the boy for the last time. |
C.Each time the boy asked the apple tree for help, the tree tried her best to satisfy him. |
D.After reading the passage, we can easily think of the old Chinese saying “Parents’ love is universal!” |

March 16th is World Sleep Day. This year’s slogan (標語) is “Breathe Easily, Sleep Well”. Its aim is to celebrate the benefits (好處) of good and healthy sleep.
Sleep is like food for the brain. Enough sleep helps the body and brain grow and develop. According to the National Sleep Foundation in the US, adults need seven to nine hours of sleep every night. For students aged 10 to 17, a healthy amount is about eight to nine hours per night.
But many students don’t get enough sleep because of early school start times and heavy homework. About 80 percent of middle school students don’t get enough sleep, the China Youth and Children Research Center reported. For some students, they want to sleep early, but they keep worrying about their schoolwork and can’t fall asleep quickly. For others, they may even have insomnia which might keep them awake all night.
These sleeping problems greatly affect people’s lives. Experts have shown that lack of sleep for teenagers leads to poor grades. Students without enough sleep cannot pay attention in class or do well in sports. Also, the lack of sleep may make them depressed (沮喪的).
Luckily, with good sleep habits, it is easier to fall asleep. Some of these good habits include avoiding drinks that make people excited late in the day, going to sleep at the same time each night, and sleeping in a comfortable place that is dark, quiet, and neither too warm nor too cold.
【小題1】If Li Hong is 15 years old, how much sleep does she need every night?

C.7 hours. | D.Less than 7 hours. |
A.They might not be able to finish their schoolwork. |
B.Their bodies and brains might grow better. |

C.多動癥 | D.失眠癥 |

Taking away a city’s rubbish is a big job. Every day trucks come into a city to collect it. Most rubbish is made up of things we can't eat or use. If we kept these things we would soon have a mountain of rubbish.
In some cities the rubbish is collected and taken outside of city to a dump. Often the city dump is placed where the ground is low or there is a big hole. The kitchen rubbish is broken into small pieces and sent into the sewage system. The sewage system takes away the used water from toilets, bathtubs and other places.
To keep mice and flies away, some earth is used to cover the newly dumped rubbish. Later, grass may be planted on the rubbish-filled land. Finally, a house or a school may be built there, and then you’d never know that this had once been an old rubbish dump.
In other cities the rubbish is burnt in special places. The fire burns everything but the metal. Sometimes the metal can be used again in factories where things are made of metal. The food parts of rubbish are put in special piles where they slowly change into something called humus(腐殖質(zhì)), which looks like black earth. It is rich with the kinds of things that feed plants and help them grow.
【小題1】Where is the rubbish put after it is taken outside of city?
A.On the mountain | B.In the water |
C.In low places | D.In special places |
A.to let us know taking away rubbish is a big job |
B.to explain the need for rubbish collection |
C.to introduce different ways to treat rubbish |
D.to tell people to take useful things out of rubbish |
A.排污 | B.染色 |
C.洗滌 | D.吸塵 |
A.to feed animals | B.to feed plants |
C.to build a house | D.to make machines |
A.By burning it off. |
B.By putting it in water. |
C.By throwing it away. |
D.By reusing and recycling it. |

閱讀與回答問題
Do you feel lonely when your best friend isn’t around? Of course, yes. Here’s our advice to you—and to all kids who feel lonely sometimes.
You may feel lonely at break or lunchtime when a best friend isn’t around—maybe because he or she moved to a different school or a different class. You want to have new friends, but how do you make them? Maybe it seems everybody else already has his or her friends. But remember, there’s always room for more friends.
Start by looking around your classroom—think about which kids you’d like to play with at break. Look for chances to say hi to them, smile, and be friendly. Offer to share something or express your appreciation (欣賞) to them. Invite someone to play with you or say, “Do you want to sit here?” in the lunchroom. When you’re at break, walk over to kids you want to play with, act friendly, and say “Hi, can I play, too?” or just join in.
If you have trouble doing this or if you’re feeling shy, ask your teacher to help you make new friends. Teachers are usually pretty good at matching up friends. The best way to make friends is to be a friend. Be kind, be friendly, share, say nice things, offer to help ---and pretty soon, you’ll have one, or two, or even more new friends.
You might still miss that special best friend. But when you see each other, you can share something you didn’t have before he or she left. You can introduce him or her to your new friends!
【小題1】How do you feel when your best friend isn’t around you according to the passage?
【小題2】Why do some kids feel lonely at break according to the writer?
【小題3】What is the best way to make friends according to the writer?
【小題4】Why do some kids need help from teachers to make friends according to the writer?
【小題5】What should you do if you want to make more friends? (請自擬一句話作答)

The more books you read, the better your life will be. If you don’t believe me, please consider the following reasons to read more books.
You will have strong brain power .Studies suggest reading makes you smart. Unlike watching television, which requires no thought process(過程), reading is an active learning experience that will keep your mind sharp (even in old age).
You will travel to a new world . Sometimes our daily life can start to get boring . At times like this, I like to dive into a good fiction book, where I can forget about whatever problems are stressing me out. I’ll come back refreshed after my mini-vacation to a fresh and exciting place in the world of words.
You will improve your vocabulary . The more words you’re able to use, the better you will become at expressing your thoughts and feelings. I couldn’t imagine how I would write articles like this if I didn’t actively aim to improve my vocabulary, because using the same few words to express myself would get awfully boring in a hurry.
You will entertain yourself at a low price .If you’re looking for entertainment without much money, reading is your best choice. Thanks to the popularity of electronic reading devices(設備), it’s never been easier to entertain yourself for hours at a time, for the low cost of a few dollars.
You will discover surprising new ideas. Reading introduced me to concepts (概念)like mindful eating, relaxation exercises, and the importance of loving yourself. If I didn’t read, I wouldn’t realize these ideas. If you don’t read, you will miss many surprising new ideas.
You will become an expert(專家) in your field . Don’t you think reading articles and books by experts in your field might make you better at what you do? If you don’t learn more about your profession, then your lack of passion could be a sign that you’re in the wrong field.
I firmly believe that reading has changed my life . I hope these reasons can encourage you to read more books.
【小題1】How many reasons are mentioned in the passage?
A.five | B.six | C.seven | D.eight |
A.science book | B.fiction book | C.history book | D.story book |
