I’m a student from Chongqing, China. I am write to keep you informing of something about the severe situation that finless porpoises, a kind of rare and lovely animal, are facing with presently.

However, it ’s high time that immediate measures must be taken. Don’t you think so? If possible, how I hope you can help us by funding your project aiming at protecting finless porpoises! Under your financial aid, I am convinced fewer finless porpoises will survive. I would appreciate greatly if you could consider my application.

"Your homework is to collect sounds and take them down," Mrs. Olson said before class was over. She handed out sheets of paper shaped like giant ears.

On his way home, Colin glared out the school-bus window. Not fair, he thought. How could he collect enough sounds on his family's farm? If only he lived in the town.

   He got off the bus when it stopped at his mailbox. But he wasn't in the mood to waveas it drove away.

    "I’m home！”Colin called when he pushed open the gate. He threw his schoolbag down on a kitchen chair.

    "How was school?" His mother asked, walking in with his baby brother on her shoulder.

    "I’ve got homework," Colin complained.

    "Eat something before doing your chores." His mother gave him the animal biscuits. Colin ate two tigers, three lions, and a seal, then drank some milk.

Astrid, Colin's dog, woofed as Colin walked toward the barn（谷仓）．Her young dogs were yipping. Colin placed dog food into their pan. In the chicken house, Colin hurried two hens from their nests．He put their warm eggs into his jacket. The black cow napped in the sun. Colin woke her when he poured corn into her pan. "Moo, thank you！”she seemed to say.

    Colin put the eggs in the kitchen, then climbed to his tree house as usual. He could see Dad's beehives（蜂箱）by the field. Six hives usually meant plenty of humming noise. But today he couldn't hear it over the chattering sound of the sparrows，How could a person think?

   "QUIET！”Colin shouted.

   Suddenly, he sat up straight. Cows mooed and young dogs yipped. Chickens crackled in their yard. When Astrid began woofing below, Colin smiled broadly. "I hear you！”he called. He hurried down from the tree.

24．Why did Colin wish he lived in the town?

Imagine life as a game in which you are playing some five balls in the air. You name 61 (they)—work, family, health, friends and spirit, and you’re keeping all these balls in the air. 

You understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls are made of glass. If you drop one of them, it will be scuffed（磨损）, damaged or even broken into 62 (piece). They will never be the same. You must understand the balance in your life. How

Don’t compare yourself with others. It is because we are different and each of us  63 (be) special. Don’t set your goals by what other people consider important. Only you know 64 is best for you. Don’t give 65 when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop 66 (try). Knowledge is weightless, 67 treasure you can always carry 68 (easy). Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, where you are, but also where you 69 (go).

Life is not a race, but a journey to 70 (enjoy) slowly each step of the way. Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That’s why we call it—the present.

The traditional American school year begins in late August or early September.It ends in May or June, followed by summer vacation. 36 Because long ago, young people had to help their families harvest summer crops, At least this is what people today may think.

37 A recent report from an education policy center at Indiana University explored the historical roots of the traditional school calendar.

In the early days of the United States, children were not required to attend school School calendars depended on local needs. 38 They worked on family farms during the other months, City schools were often open much longer, some for eleven months of the year.

After the Civil War, more and more people saw the need for a system of required education. 39 Many city schools wanted a shorter year and a longer summer break, The schools were often crowded. There was no modern air conditioning. Hot days would make it difficult to learn. Many rural educators, however, pushed for a longer school year. They thought it would keep children safe from industrial dangers when there were few child-labor laws.

So the traditional school calendar was a compromise(折中). The average school year used to be one hundred and seventy days. Times have not changed much. 40  But some experts think the traditional school calendar needs to change because the needs of the  nation have changed. This thinking has led some schools to keep students in class longer.

A. Why such a long break?

B.Today the common average is one hundred and eighty days.

C.Americans think highly of their traditional school calendar.

D.Most schools had similar school calendars.

E.But the reason has more to it.

F.Students in rural areas went to school for no more than six months of the year.

G.But they.had different ideas.for the calendar.

C．that               D．it

 — Are you sure the delegation will come to our school next week?

   — _____. The head of it has just emailed me about the departure time of their flight.

  A. No wonder B. You bet  C. Don't mention it  D. Definitely not

Everyone may depend _______ it won’t be like that again.

Tone of voice is very important in human conversation. A person might use words that communicate one message and a tone that shows something very different. This possibility for confusion is one reason that businessmen encourage discussing things in person, rather than through email, as tone cannot be determined in the written form.

    The same rule is true with children. Children as young as a few months respond to a change in voice. It has been recorded that babies prefer to hear a story read by their own mother rather than another woman whom they do not know.

    Have you ever talked to someone who had little or no changes in their voice no matter what you were discussing? Think of the teacher or professor you had in the past that spoke in a monotone manner for the entire lecture. It is very boring and difficult to become interested in the topic.

    Parents should make an active effort to communicate with your child. If your child figures out how to open a box he or she has been struggling with and says “YES!” with pride in his or her voice, your response should be happy and excited (something encouraging, like “You did it!”). If you plainly said the same thing, you would not be matching the tone of your child.

    This applies to feelings that the child may express in everyday situations as well. If a child argues with a friend, your response should not be said in a high voice or with a smile. Seriously and sincerely you should say “You look sad” or “That must have been hard for you”.

    The tone of your voice expresses understanding, acknowledgement, connection and several other healthy things to your child. Although your words are very important, equally important is the tone with which you say those words.

29. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph?

A. To tell us that our tone of voice is as important as the words we say.

B. To tell us that businessmen prefer to talk in person.

C. To lead to the topic of the passage.

D. To advise us to use different tones of voice correctly.

30. The underlined word “monotone” in the 3^rd paragraph probably means a(n) _____ tone.

A. slow         B. unchanging      C. cold          D. high     

31. When communicating with their children, what are parents advised to do?

A. To hide their feelings with different tones of voice.

B. To use a tone of voice that can match their children’s feelings.

C. Not to speak to their children in a low voice.

D. To train their children to express their feelings by tone of voice.
