    It’s hard to find Alice Munro in the media. Even after she won the 2013 Nobel Prize in Literature, the Canadian writer just appeared for a quick interview and then dropped out of sight. On Dec 29, she still didn't seek the spotlight（聚光灯）when she was named one of the five Women of the Year by the Financial Times.

In Munro's eyes, ordinary lives always hide larger dramas. So she records what we casually think of as the everyday actions of normal people. She often focuses on life in her hometown, a small village in Ontario which she is most familiar with. She writes about the ordinary things in the village－fox forming, trees filled in the Ontario wilderness, poor country alcohol and long last illnesses. Above all, she talks about girls and women who have seemingly ordinary lives but struggle against daily misfortune.

She has a special talent for uncovering the extraordinary in the ordinary. These are ordinary people, ordinary stories, but she has the magic. Her precise language, depth of detail and the logic of her storytelling have made her stories inviting.

Runaway, one of Munro’s representative works, is a good example of her writing style. One of the stories centers on the life of an ordinary woman Carla, who lives in a small Canadian town with her husband Clark. The story slowly forms a picture of Carla, trapped in a bad marriage, her unhappiness building into desperation until she decided to flee. The story of Carla is a story of the power and betrayals of love. It is about lost children and lots of chances that we can all find in life, There is pain beneath the surface, like a needle in the heart.

Since she published her first collection of short stories in 1968, Munro has won many awards, with the Nobel Prize being her biggest honor. On Oct 10, 2013, the Nobel Prize committee named Munro the “master of the contemporary short story”.

When I was a kid, I always used to wonder how in the world my father worked outside in the winter without a coat. It could be minus 20 degrees centigrade and there’d be Dad, removing snow, or perhaps chopping(砍) some wood --- his coat thrown aside--- wearing a shirt, a cap, and a pair of gloves.

“Aren’t you cold, Dad?” I’d ask. “No,” Dad would reply. “I’m not cold--- working too hard to be cold.”

Many times I wondered whether my father was an extremely tough man, or whether he was foolish.

One time when I was quite young, perhaps five or so, I went ice fishing with Dad. It was a bright, clear day—and bitterly cold.

After we’d been out on the ice for a little while, my feet started getting cold.

“Daddy, my feet are cold.” I said.

“Yeah, it’s cold out here today,” he replied.

“Tell you what,” he said. “Walk around. Make some circles in the snow. See how many different patterns you can make. That will get your feet warm.”

I was just a little girl at the time but I remember thinking, “How in the world will walking around in the snow make my feet warm? Dad must be out of mind.”

But he was my father, after all. I made circles in the snow. I made squares. Pretty soon I was having so much fun making patterns in the snow. I forgot about my feet being cold.

Now, all these years later, I know, too, from personal experience how my father was able to take his coat off and work outside in the winter wearing just a shirt, a cap and gloves. Because I do it, too. “Aren’t you cold?” my husband asked one winter day. “No,” I replied. “I’m not cold—working too hard to be cold.”

I hope my husband has decided I’m both tough and smart. But I guess quite a bit of the time he thinks I’m foolish.

Wherever Dad is on that great big farm in the sky—I’m sure he can’t help but smile whenever I take my coat off while I’m working outside in the winter.

21. When the author’s feet felt cold, her father advised her to ______ .

A. go home alone first             B. keep walking in the snow

C. draw pictures in the snow        D. light a fire on the ice

23. What might the author’s husband think of her?

24. The author’s purpose of writing this passage is to ______ .

A. remember her tough and smart father      B. show how her father cared about her

C. describe memories of her childhood       D. explain why her father loved her so much

Worried about how many calories you will get in that piece of pizza, chocolate cake or bag of chips? A new iPhone application (应用程序) MealSnap may help. Users just need to take a picture of the meal with the phone, and it will give a calorie read-out almost immediately.

MealSnap was developed by DailyBurn, a health social network that is meant to help its users lead healthier lifestyles. It has created several other health and diet-related iPhone applications. The application gives users a quick reply. To do that, it matches the taken picture to a databank (数据库) with the calorie information of nearly 500,000 kinds of food. Users then get the range of calories for the meal that is photographed.

We started with something simple —an apple. A couple of minutes later, the application replied that it was an apple and between 64 and 96 calories. More impressive was the reply we received after sending a photo of a mixed salad bowl. MealSnap replied that the bowl contained “yellow rice with corn, boiled eggs and beans” and that the food was between 532 and 789 calories.

Mr. Smith, director of DailyBurn, said that usual calorie counting needed a long time, but that the application made it easier to know the calories in food. That is why it is so popular among those who are trying hard to lose weight.

In addition, MealSnap can act as a food diary. No need to write down what they’ve eaten, the photos will be stored. The users can keep a visual log (视觉的记录). Mr. Smith said, “It’s like a food journey, but easier. All you do is to take the picture. The simple act of recording something can cause a psychological (心理的) change that can help people on their health journey. Knowing the calorie range makes me think more about what I’m eating.”

33. The purpose of DailyBurn is to _________.

   A. help people find ways to lose weight   B. make iPhone more popular

   C. help people have a healthy life        D. persuade people to buy iPhone products

34. What can be learned from the third paragraph?

   A. MealSnap is only useful for simple things. 

   B. MealSnap can also tell what the food is.

   C. The result of MealSnap isn’t always right.

   D. MealSnap needs a long time to show the calorie range.

35. Which of the following statements about MealSnap is TRUE?

   A. It has been put into the market.

   B. People will surely lose weight if they use it.

   C. It’s popular because it was developed by DailyBurn.

   D. People have to link iPhone with the Internet to use it.

Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, back in the eleventh century B.C. To use it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. It was first used as a shade against the sun.

We know it was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use; it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office.

In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrellas as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.

During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late 16th century. And again it became a symbol of power and authority. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France, and later on in England.

By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’t until the twentieth century that women’s umbrellas began to be made in a variety of colors.

A drunken burglar（盗贼）in the Orrell Park area of Liverpool, ended up leaping out of a window after a 10-year-old girl asked him to prove he was a superhero.

 The drunken thief who pretended he was Superman to stop a child raising the alarm has been caught after he leapt from the apartment building in his pants to make the girl convinced.

 Thief Ethan Adamson, 25, told police that he had broken into a fifth-floor flat after a drinking session, believing it was empty.

 But he was horrified when the owner’s 10-year-old daughter woke up while he was there.

 From his hospital bed, the thief told reporters, “To keep her quiet, I told her I was really Superman and I’d soon be flying off back to my secret headquarters.”

 “She called my bluff (吓唬) and told me, ‘If you’re Superman, show me you can fly or I’ll scream’.

 “I had no choice so I stripped to my pants to look more like a superhero and went to the window. I saw another roof below and I thought I could make it but it turned out to be a lot further down than thought. I know it doesn’t make sense but it did to me when I was drunk.”

 Police later found him on the roof in just his yellow pants, covered in cuts and bruises after a baffled neighbor heard his cries of pain.

 He now faces seven years behind bars for burglary.

 Police spokesman Frank Amado said, “ He was in quite a serious state and couldn’t move until we got up there using ladders. He was treated for his injuries and we got him some fresh clothes, before taking him to hospital where he is being kept under guard until he is well enough to be arrested.”

13．What does the underlined part in the passage mean?

A. I could land safely on the roof.  

B. I could make the girl trust me.

C. I could prove I was a superhero.

a. Ethan Adamson told reporters of the burglary.

b. The 10-year-old girl called Ethan Adamson’s bluff.

c. Ethan Adamson attended a drinking session.

d. Ethan Adamson leapt out of a window.

A. cabd            B. dbca        C. cbda       D. dcab

15．Which of the following is TRUE?

A. Adamson was set free a few days after staying in hospital.

B. Adamson was badly treated before he was rushed to hospital.

C. Adamson was being watched while he was in hospital.

Long long ago the sky was close to the Earth. Men and women did not have to plant their own food.   31   ,when they were hungry, they just reached   32   and broke off a piece of the sky to eat.

Sometimes the sky tasted like ripe bananas while other times it tasted like roasted(烤制的) potatoes. The sky was   33    delicious. Many people in the kingdom did not use the gift of the sky    34   . They took more than they could eat. Some people even threw the   35  pieces into the garbage（垃圾）.

Early one morning the angry sky turned dark . Black clouds   36   over the land . And a great sky voice said to all the people , “You are   37  my gift of food. Do not take more than you can eat. I don’t want to see pieces of me in the    38  any more,   39    I will take my gift away .” All the people trembled   40   fear. For a long time , they were careful.

But at a festival time, one man named Adami took so many delicious pieces of sky  41    he couldn’t eat them all. He knew he must not   42  them away. He tried to give the pieces to his wife . “Here ,wife,” Adami said , “You eat the rest.” “I can’t ,”his wife said, “I’m too 43  .” Adami asked all his children to help him eat the delicious pieces of sky, but the children couldn’t have one more bite. So Adami decided to try to   44   the pieces at the bottom of the garbage pile.

Suddenly, the sky became angry and the clouds turned black. “You have wasted my gift of food   45  ”, shouted the sky, “This time I will go away so you cannot waste me any more .” All of the people cried, “ 46   will we eat ?We will starve to death!” The sky said, “you will have to learn how to plant   47  in the ground and  48  in the forests. If you work hard , you may learn not to waste the gifts of nature.”

Everyone watched as the sky sailed away.  49   ,they worked hard to grow their food and cook their meals. They remembered not to waste the  50   of nature.

Dear Harry,

I am glad to receive your letter.                                         

                                                         Yours,

                                                         Li Hua

When I was a baby, I entertained you and made you laugh. Whenever I was “bad”, you'd shake your finger at me and ask, “How could you?”--but then you'd give up, and roll me over for a belly scratch and I believed that life could not be any more perfect.

My housetraining was a long process, because you were terribly busy, but we worked on that together. We went for long walks, runs in the park and car rides. We stopped for ice cream. I took long naps in the sun waiting for you to come home at the end of the day.

Gradually, you began spending more time at work and on your career, and more time searching for a human mate. Eventually, you fell in love. She, now your wife, is not a dog person, but I still welcomed her into our home. I was happy because you were happy. Then the human babies came along and I shared your excitement, I was fascinated by their pinkness, how they smelled, and I wanted to mother them too. Your wife was afraid I would bite them. But nevertheless, as they began to grow, I became their friend.

Now, you have a new job in another city and you and they will be moving to an apartment that does not allow pets. You've made the right decision for your “family”, but there was a time when I was your only family.

I was excited about the car ride until we arrived at the dog pound. It smelled of dogs and cats, of fear, of hopelessness. You filled out the paperwork and said, “I know you will find a good home for her.” They shrugged and gave you a pained look. The children were in tears as they waved me goodbye. And “How could you?” were the only three words that swept over my mind.

Is it better to live with hope or without hope? At first, whenever anyone passed my pen (围栏), I rushed to the front, hoping it was you, that you had changed your mind and that this was all a bad dream.

My beloved master, I will think of you and wait for you forever. I hope you receive more faithfulness from your family than you showed to me.

    Dear Editor,

I’m writing to tell you my opinions about water saving. Water is of great important. We and animals can’t lived without it. Yet it seem that water is becoming less or less in some areas. In the world, many country find they don’t have enough water.

To deal with the problem, we should first to go out to plant tress because trees will help them save water. Next, drinking water shouldn’t left running. Third,we should find ways to reuse the water used in washing,especial some bath water, that will save much water.

                                                  Sincerely yours,
